Chapter 8

The reactor scrammed again, sending Damphousse and the rest of the crew into another emergency shutdown.

In the cannon turret, Wang and Shane arced their weapons back and forth. But their electronic view sights showed them nothing to fire at.

On the bridge, crewmen and Marines fought to get the bucking spaceship back under control.

Captain Llewellyn grabbed the radio. He had to hold on to a support beam to keep himself from being thrown across the bridge.

"Generator room!" he radioed, "reactor down, go to secondary energy supply! Now!"

"Aye, sir!" came the garbled response.

On the bridge, they could hear the generator crank on. The dimmed lights began to brighten.

BOOM! An explosion ripped through the ship so violently it felt as if it was being torn apart. But this time, the explosion wasn't caused by anything outside—it came from the generator room.

"Fire in the hole!" screamed the chief mechanic over the radio. "Generator one blew!"

The lights sputtered and died, plunging the ship into complete darkness. The only sound was the roar of the flames eating up the generator room.

Llewellyn tried to stay calm.

"Potter, this is the captain!" he radioed down. "Get a fire team to station four! Repeat—fire team to station four!"

In the cargo hold, Potter and Cooper were still face-to-face—ready to brawl. Potter backed away first, heading off to deal with the latest emergency.
