“I have to go get him” she said, she grabbed Jays gun, ran to the door and held the switch down for 3 seconds like she had seen Jay do. As soon as the doors were open, she ran straight for the engine room. She took a big breath before the last door opened, she could see them both trying to stagger to their feet. She charged and the Pilot and kicking his feet out from under him and following through with an elbow in the ribs. She then ducked under Jays big arm and tried to force him to walk back to the door.He got in six steps before his knees started to buckle, with all her might she held him up against the wall. She moved in front of him and getting both his arms over her shoulders she lent forward taking all his weight on her back and started walking forward, his feet dragging behind.

He reached his hand up and tapped his stud Mia, did the same “Ryder you called”“Yeah Jay, I’m going to land you guys on the dock, we’re going to need that ship”“Why?” asked Jay“There is an injured Trainee down here who just went into shock, we are going to fly him out for medical treatment ASAP.”“And I suppose you really, want to fly this Ship,” Jay said“Like a hand grenade without a pin!!” Ryder repliedJay Laughed “You have better take Tilly with you although be careful using that expression around her, she might try to disarm you. Is there anyone else injured.”“Master Dora got shot in the upper thigh and they can’t get the bullet out without surgery, she will go too.

“Mia nodded still pondering all she had learnt, “Right” She clipped her helmet on and exited the pod. She loosened up her muscles getting ready to run. She read the first meter and then was off. She could hear the pod following behind her until after the second meter but Jay must have got board of watching her run and headed off to look around.
