Balus preferred hand to hand, but he readied his rifle and then, " Whoa" he found himself distracted by the explosion of the shipyards.

Kiadan's eyes flick around the bridge as most of the commands given are lost on her, and even more are harder to follow at the speed the team moves. "Perhaps if I send my underlings to military training we can increase the efficiency..." she muses. "Robotics however requires no sleep only recharging..." she muses watching as the captain gives the order to fire and then her eyes lock on the explosion. "interesting, only a minor explosion."

Solaxis agreed and deployed with the rest of the troops under cover of his cloaking ability. he flew to the pod at top speed (Mach 1) and stopped at what he deemed a safe, short distance away to visibly survey the pod for any unusual energy patterns or external devices attached to the hull.
his x-ray ability would be useless to see inside due to the integral radiation shielding inherent to all spacecraft, but using a due amount of caution he would move in for a closer inspection if he didn't detect anything unusual externally, meaning he would try to get a look inside using the viewing ports.

(Kiadan)
The Fire Control Officer shouts out. "Reporting 90% demolition. The calculations were correct, sir; the payload detonated the missile warheads. We'll be ready to fire again in 20 minutes if we need to."
The Ship Operations Officer enters. "We've got 6 Killships inbound., plus another 3 that are guarding a troop transport trying to evac the Loks in the asteroid patch."
The Fire Control Officer. "I'm bringing all batteries on line."
The Mission Operations Officer laughs. "Save some energy; I've already hacked into their primitive communications and am working into command lines."
The Captain smiles. "Dr. Kiadan, perhaps you'd like to assist our Mission Operations officer?"
(Solaxis)
Solaxis, as you move in for a closer inspection, you see no outward signs of tampering.
(Balus)
Major Trokyr (not wearing a space suit or any means of artifical propulsion. Just a simply breathing unit tied to his comm) leaps into the void and flies off at an incredible speed. His body glows as he makes impact with an approaching Killship. The shockwave of the explosion nearly knocks you off balance (no damage) as you and the other troops take position.
(roll on your pilot: jetpack and for initiative please. Solaxis, you may roll for initiative as well).

" That's insane!" Balus sputtered as Trokyr attacked the Tarlok, while he struggled against his pack to take his position.
init roll= 7
pilot : jetpack 95/ ... fail anyways

Still she takes wing and lands upon the console of the MO's console looking at the console upside down. Her eyes keen and observant more watching the MO then helping.

(Sol is actively avoiding combat atm, unless he's been detected and engaged?)
Solaxis, still cloaked moves in for a closer look, trying to get an idea what's going on inside the pod through any available view port.

You find the online menu with the hacktool weapons, but you have no idea what they are or what purpose they could serve.
(Solaxis)
You see through the sole viewport 3 scientists floating in zero G, shivering and yet asleep.
(Balus)
you start spinning through the void but Slycer manages to steady you. "Hells, Junior! Watch out what you're-AHH!" he yells out as he's blasted in the chest. A Tarlok Warrior weilding an energized blade comes rushing towards you.
(roll vs. HF: 12 Balus. You are stabilized, however)

Solaxis begins flying (pushing) the pod toward the shuttle using his incredible strength and speed when he sees a trooper get ambushed (Slycer) by a Tarlok while trying to help the young cadet from the promotion ceremony (Balus). with a shove, Solaxis sets the pod adrift toward the shuttle. "oh no you don't" he tells himself drawing his sword "no more Seeronians fall to Tarlok treachery on my watch". he flies at the Tarlok full speed, blasting it with an energy pulse (4000' range in space) while closing the distance, aiming for the jets and then follows it up with a Mach 1 sword stroke again aimed at the jets to give the young Seeronian a chance to check on his colleague. "turn about is fair play".
(init 7+6=13, energy pulse strike 7, energy pulse damage 33, flying sword strike 8+6=14, sword damage 43+45=88, Solaxis is also still cloaked using his light bending abilities)

Kiadan continues to watch what the MO is doing trying to absorb as much information as possible about the task. Her eyes not blinking as she sits poised on top of the console.
(I'm not sure if Perfect Memory works for this but that's basically what Kiadan would be doing."

(roll vs HF = 17)
" Slycer!" Balus called out as his partner got hit. Not thinking straight, he threw himself towards the incoming Tarlok, his arm coiled to throw a punch at the attacker as soon as he was within range [ str= 14+2=16, dmg (2d4x10+51)= 91 if hits]
Even as Solaxis tried to help, he shouted while caught up in the moment," I can handle this, Ambassador. Look after the scientists."

(Kiadan)
You can see that the Mission Operations officer is uploading some viral hardware into the troop carrier's environmental system controls software.
(Balus and Solaxis)
Solaxis, you are given away as you speed through the void, and are targeted by a tarlock firing a missle volley from a portable launcher (2 missiles: 17+3 to strike, 80 damage if it hits: HE missile payloads). Even as Solaxis approaches, he sees the young soldier deliver a blow that shatters open his opponents helmet and spray blood, teeth and bone into space.
Two more Tarlocks jet through to where Balus and Solaxis are.

Balus wiped off his glove. " Go Ambassador, I'll be okay here." Balus said, feeling confident and slightly disgusted," and if you can, get Slycer out of here. He needs a medic asap!" He didn't wait to give the new attackers chance to plan and he swung at the first one to come near with a viscious uppercut [ Str=(10+2)12, (2d4x10+51) 111 dmg if hits]

"What do you propose to do with this viral compound?" Kiadan asks tilting her head. "Do you expect it to work properly without it being properly coded for the unique frequencies of their computer system? You can not expect their language to be similar to our own. They would program in a different language."
