Reid finally got moving when it heard a communications bleeping from a nearby communications panel. It was immediately sluggish to respond, though once it got moving, it slid across the flood and responded. The R3 droid was irritable, snapping at the R4, though it quickly relayed the information to the crewmen in the hangar bay. Having been sealed in the maintenance wing, following the explosion, it was the only option as physically it was blocked by large metal bulkheads. After informing Cam that it was going to assess the damage, it unhooked from the wall and shot down the hall. The flashlight on the R3 swept across the room as it entered the hyper drive room, which had been badly burned from the explosion. After going quiet it began to scan the device to see if it could be repaired.

Rica watched the skirmish in the distance, through one of the larger windows of the command bridge. There was a look of satisfaction on his face when one of his crewmen brought up a visual holodisplay of the battle, despite noticing the fighters from the station were indeed outmatched. “How many have they lost currently?” Rica asked, walking over to the display and looking over to the nearby lieutenant.
“At least six, sir,” was the reply. “… Make that seven-though one of the Republic fighters has just gone down.”
Rica nodded somewhat, noticing another TIE go down. He waited for a moment, and then signalled to the flight controller. “Takes us in towards the corvette, once the fighters get close launch all fighters. If the corvette fires upon us, respond in kind, though keep the ship alive. I would prefer prisoners.”
With that said, the interdictor powered on its engines and started off slowly towards the Alderaanian Wraith. As they got moving however, the communications lit up from the Wraith. “Captain, I’m receiving an open line from the Wraith, they could be surrendering, should I open a channel?”
Though somewhat surprised, Rica nodded. “Open it.” He ordered, heading straight over to the communications terminal. Once the channel was open, Rica spoke. “This is Captain Rica Cardell of the Imperial interdictor vessel known as the Dragon’s Tooth, state your intent.”

As Eldramech assisted in slicing into the marine’s quarters, word of the bridge was given to him by one of the crewmen from the hangars. He grumbled as he shoved his fusion cutter in the hands of another crewman and ordered them to find an easier way through. He knew that if Erin’s astromech was able to get a message through, it was equally likely that the Imperials on the bridge knew what they were up to. Eldramech’s cybernetic eye began scanning the hall they were working in, and when it caught sight of the holocams monitoring them. It was no doubt sending a feed to the bridge, and so Eldramech pulled out his blaster and shot it. He quickly ran over to a communication panel and pressed the emergency button to open the comm throughout the vessel.
“We have imperials aboard, destroy any and all cams. Make sure they have no ability to keep track of what you are doing.” Eldramech ordered over the comms, watching as the crew made their way into a side room next to the marine quarters. They were able to identify a weakness in the wall and soon enough they were well on their way to cutting a hole through it.
Eldramech had been watching their progress, his hands still on his blaster when his ear implant caught movement down the hall. He leaned out of the hall, his eyebrow raised somewhat. “I… think we might have company. Keep working; don’t open this door until you’ve got the marines out.” Eldramech told, quickly stepping out of the room and closing the door. To protect the crewmen from being targeted, Eldramech shot the outer control panel, thus averting any danger of the door being open from the outside. Quickly he went over to the controls near the hall and turned off the lights. He didn’t know much about the mechanics, but he hoped they would have trouble seeing in complete darkness. He on the other hand could see perfectly well in darkness thanks to his implant. Having moved into a doorway, Eldramech took up a defensive position to await the imperials that had been sent to stop them.
