"Fierfek!" Vex cursed as he got slammed in the turret by the Imp fire, " We can't take much more of this even if this tub is made of Cortosis ore!" He continued to fire, lining up shots we anything that presented itself on the ImpStar, particularly the dorsal shield generators. The air was starting to get acrid and hazy, so he knew that somewhere above him something was burning. " Come on Captain, get us out of here, our shebses are getting slammed j"

Jessa winces as they're hit again hard by enemy ships. She agrees with vex that they won't be able to withstand much more of this and hopes they'll be able to make an escape as she continues to fire on nearby enemy TIE fighters.

"Escort, this is six. Disengage, we're jumping," Came a communication . As fighters broke off and dispersed, the transport left. Pretty soon, it was only the Two Left Feet.
"Making the jump into hyperspace," Alio said, as the ship re-aligned.
Nothing. An astromech went screaming up to the bridge. Both Vex and Jessa knew the ominous nature of that tone.
"OK, now making the jump - What?" Tho coms turned off as the droid's tragic beeps were heard. Something about damage, and power in shields.
"OK, we're heading for the asteroid field, for now," Alio said, veering off at full speed. "Put any power we can in the shields."
A short time later, Vex's and Jessa's guns went black.
Now that things were a little quieter, Lilith could hear a hissing noise, coming from her part of the ship.

When the turret blacked out, Vex unbuckled and got out of his seat, then looked up to Jessa," I think we might be in dwang now. Guess we better find something else we can do to help."

Jessa scowls when he power to her turret is gone and slaps it lightly. "This is just great."Jessa mutters hating that she is, for all intents and purposes, useless. Sighing Jessa nods at Vex and asks, "what do you propose we do to help?"

"Zone = hears hissing. Zone <= needed height. Zone >= worried." Zone beeped at them from between the two gunwells. "Please help."

"Well I don't know." Vex replied "Why are you asking my opinion? No one ever listens to me. Aww," he mock sighed as the astromech twittered, " Zone wants his mama. Bet he has a lose screw he thinks you can tighten."

Jessa glares at Vex, given that Zone meant a lot to her. "Maybe you're just jealous that he has more intelligence in a loose screw than you have, period." Jessa then heads to where Zone is.

"Hey! You know I didn't mean anything by it." Vex replied defensively. His own astromech Late was his best friend, so he couldn't blame Jessa for her reaction. As she left her turret, he climbed up from the gun well to look and see what was going on.

Turns out STWOR astromech speak is hard to master,
Zone flashed a light for Jessa to see. It was close to the ceiling.
"Pressure ~ pressure.," Zone said. "But air + hissing = exiting. Sealant recommended."
A couple of soldiers went by with emergency tools, to the engine area. They were, naturally, in a hurry.
Suddenly, the suppression fire stopped, and the ship was eerily quiet.
"Cannon fire = zero," Zone said.
"Star Destoyer departing," Late answered as he left. "Bad dancer ship <= interesting. Too damaged?"
"Likely," Zone said. "Vex shooting not= a route to safety,"
Late tittered, then stopped. "Zone= mean, stop it." Late blatted.

Lilith heard the curious sound and went to investigate. Now that the shooting and everyone flopping around was over, now would be a good time to check out the next set of problems.

Lilith found Jessa there with her droid, examining the hiss, as well.
Late scampered off to some other emergency task.
Not sure where Vex went, just yet.

Jessa pats Zone on the head when he points out the problem and says, "Good catch." Jessa smirks at the conversation between Zone and late and represses a chuckle at Zone's last comment and Late's retort. Jessa attempts to stop one of the crew members who have emergency tools and points out what Zone had discovered, adding, "We'll need to get this fixed ASAP before it becomes a bigger problem.

Not sure where Vex went, just yet. Still on the ladder to the turrets, Vex wasn't sure what he was needed for, so he hung near the guns in case they got power back. Hearing Zone, he snarled," Hey watch it, rust trap." |

"I have every faith in you," Late beeps to Vex, taking time to approximate grammar to show he cares. "Zone knows Bad Dancer Ship = safe, iff you > 0."
And then the astromech rolls off for something else.
One of the soldiers nods to Jessa and runs off. A moment later, he returned with a hole repair kit. He handed the kit to Lillith, then he handed Jessa the rough patch-clothes (made of some super future space material from a long ago) that would help to ensure the seal lasts.
"Here you go. Ma'ams" he said, and was gone.
