Holonovel--Page Fifty-one: Track A


Klaxon
The battle continues.
"Shields down to 76%!" shouts Ensign Ronald, as a piece of conduit falls out of a bulkhead. "Disruptors ready. Phasers locked."
"Fire!" you yell.
"Firing...their shields are at 83%. They're firing a volley of torpedoes--brace for impact!"
The Imperial is thrown sideways by the powerful cluster of torpedoes.
"Shields at 64%! Dorsal forward phaser banks offline!"
The Imperial is rocked again, and Camalia exclaims, "The helm is unresponsive!"
"Shields at 20%! The torpedoes are all the weapons we have! They're armed and ready!" adds Ronald.
"Fire!" you desperately order.
"Firing now!...Minor damage to their shields and some very minor damage to their power systems."
Then, the Imperial is rocked by two more blasts, and you see a blaze of light as a bunch of cables dangling from the ceiling explodes. After the light, you see someone rushing toward you--then, you see only darkness. Shortly, you see, feel, and notice nothing at all--once the effects of the explosion kill you.
