"Keep moving people!  This is not a sight seeing tour!"  Warren said catching up to the main of his group.  He was as confident as he could be when it came to the area's left behind and it was time to get his people into pods and out into space.  From there...Well he just hoped to fucking God one of those Fleet assholes were staying behind to pick them up.  Otherwise, they might as well go up with the damned ship.<br/><br/>Seeing everyone into the pods, he looked at the last one and the Private before him.  "Tanaka, you have got to stop making a habit of being the last one in a fucking place.  Now get in the Goddamn pod!"  Warren lifted his arm and let off a shot.  It zipped past Tanaka and into the head of an on coming orc.<br/><br/>After she dove in, Warren followed.  Closing the door he sat comfertably in the last spot and smiled through the little window at the pissed off orc.  Giving a farewell salute he hit the launch button.<br/><br/>Everybody in the pod was hit with enough G's that half the persons within blacked out.  Glad not to be one of them, Warren looked at the small display.  Bio-ships, everywhere.  With the rest of the fleet warping off outside the jamming field.  "Mother fuckers!"  Warren yelled slamming his fist, but then noticed something of miracal.<br/><br/>"Ha!  That ship!  The destroyer!<em>HMS Kidd!</em>Thank the fucking Emperor!"  Warren typed for pod to head towards the destroyer, knowing full well once close enough the vessel's own computers would log in and guide the pod inside, leaving everyone inside just to hope the destroyer's cover fire kept them safe.<br/><br/><div align="center">-Bridge of the <em>HMS Kidd</em>-</div><br/>"Multiple escape pods heading are way sir."<br/><br/>"Bring us in closer."  The Captain ordered, he seeing that without help a lot of the pods wouldn't make it.<br/><br/>"Sir, we get much closer we'll be in the jamming field."<br/><br/>"Sir, fleet is jumping away...Only us and the<em>Harriet</em>are staying back."  Another officer piped in.<br/><br/>"Then let's hope ours and the<em>Harriet's</em>gunners have been practising.  Order the<em>Harriet</em>to stay back and cover us, we'll move into the jamming field and cover the pods."<br/><br/>"Aye Captain!"  The bridge sounded, everyone going to their task and sounding when needed.  The Captain watched as the displine and hard training he instilled in his crew payed off.  They were doing well.<br/><br/>"Captain Orhanna won't like you shouting orders at her sir."  His XO said quietly from the side, the crow like figure while not well liked, was an extremely useful and capable officer.  If not a bit of a prick.<br/><br/>"Would she rather I shout them at her from outside the jamming field while I send her in you think?"  Captain Douglas asked of his XO.<br/><br/>The Crow, as many a crewman called Lieutanant Commander Fennilia, considered that statement a moment then said, "No sir.  But she has held the rank of Commander longer than you and technically in this engagement is the superior officer."  Always with the technicalities was The Crow.<br/><br/>"By like a week!  Really James...She'll stay back and follow my orders because she knows we have a better pilot at the helm."  They both looked to Jensen.  "Least I hope we do."  Douglas said with a smile and then looked back to events taking place.
