Vetea sautered into the engine room... looking over the panels there... and finding the ship is already set for destruct... some kind of malfunction of sorts.... she tapped a few of the ships access panels and discovered the countdown... they had about ten minutes before the ships core would obliterate... she turned quickly and raced back to their own ship... running at light speed... making it back to the bridge in a matter of only a couple of minutes... she sat in the pilots chair and grabbed hold of the handles... pressing the com button she hastily states..."All hands... please be advised... detonation of other ship eminent in less than ten minutes... all hands prepare for shock..." she quickly releases the ships docking mechanism from the other ship and leans in her seat... steering the ship clear of the other... she presses the handles forward and the ship moves from within the initial blasts range as the other ship detonates... lighting up the depths of space as it does.... she tenses in her seat and grips the handles tightly when the shockwave rips past the ship... rushing it forward through space... the ships bowels straining with resistance as it shudders slightly... the ship sways... then finally settles... and Vetea noticeably relaxes in the chair...
