Eric popped his head out from under the IFF to say, â€œNice to meet you Kat.â€ Immersing himself back into his work he moved this and that, connected those wires to these ones, and if it wasnâ€™t for his experience with working on things like this he would have probably broken it by that time. â€œNot that hard I donâ€™t think, it has been temperamental for awhile now I just know how to deal with it.â€<br/><br/>After a couple seconds of silence he heard her ask if he could get it online in time. â€œI just did.â€ He said in response. Pulling himself out from under he looked at the screen and growled. â€œthat should have worked.â€ He said whacking it with his fist. The screen blinked and came to life. â€œThat works.â€ He turned his head and smiled and Kat. â€œI need you to remain where you are.â€ It was easy to get around her and lean over her shoulder, as much as he hated to admit it to himself, he thought she was good looking. In his mind he was telling himself that it was the wrong place and the wrong time to be thinking about her like that. â€œDo you see those flashing red dots?â€ He asked her nodding his head the IFF, â€œthose are the enemy ships, I want you to tell me when they hit that mark.â€ Pointing to the left side of the screen where a target symbol resided. When they get there you have to push that button, it will disable any form of electricity they have, it will also do some to us but since we are a bigger vessel it wonâ€™t do much harm.â€<br/><br/>The commander sat in his chair and watched Eric and Kat as they did their business. â€œOn my command we will engage the enemy.â€ Eric turned his head to look at the commander.<span style="font-style: italic">Heâ€™s got to be nuts. Once they are in range we wonâ€™t be able to fire, what is he thinking?</span>
