Star Wars: Republic and Empire (IC)

"This whole situation reeks of trap," says Wes as he keeps himself in an overwatch position, while letting the others do their work and only offering his jack-of-all-trades aide as needed. "About as big of a pile of bantha podu as this droyk, frinkin' bastich here is shovelin'."

"There is danger on this ship," Zenith says earnestly. "More so than there was here on the bridge. I sensed that much."

She tilts her head, gazing at the Imperial officer for a moment.

"A ship, crewed by droids, commanded by an officer who's acting more out of concern for his family than himself. Is this a suicide mission you're on?"
 

"I think it would be a good idea if the ship's systems and logs were checked over for surprises of an explosive nature before anyone else from our ship comes aboard." Istara suggests, nodding toward Saricia.
 

At the officer's surrender, Storm simply ceases his assault, deactivates his blade and takes a relaxed crouch next to the imperial.

No matter, take them into custody,"

At Rosa's command Storm extends his hand, silently asking for the officer's pistol. Assuming he complies Storm will proceed to cuff the man. Apologies commander, but you understand the regulations. He says to the imperial.
 

"Of course." He says, not struggling when Storm cuffs him.

"The Imperial's right." Saricia says to Rosa. "We have to get off this ship. Fast."
 

"Agreed," Rosa says as she pulls out her comlink once again. "All Republic forces head back to the shuttle," she orders, repeating it one more time for certainty. She turns to the other Imperials. "Disarm and keep in front of us," she tells them.
 

"We've just captured the first Nebulon C frigate that the Republic has ever encountered and we are now going to abandon her and let the empire reclaim her?" Istara asks mildly. "Is she set to blow up?" not bothering to add on the 'or have you just gone nuts' she was clearly thinking.

Closing her eyes, Istara tried to get a read on the situation in the force wondering if she hadn't been right about the ship being set to blow. (taking 10 vs DC 15 = 25)
 

"It's going to try to ram Taelros. And it's going to deactivate unnecessary systems to get the power to do it -- and that includes artificial gravity and life support, which means it will kill us when it starts accellerating." Saricia said. "If I understand the program correctly, the program's triggered automatically when certain parameters are met, and not even the ship's commander can override it. I'm not sure if we should advise Commander Cyn to wait for us to get out before he starts firing on this ship again."

It sounded like machinery was coming to life all through the disabled warship, punctuating the engineer's statement.
 

"Can we disable it from inside?" Zenith asks. "Get to engineering and disable its engines or reactor?"

"I mean, even with life support off, it won't instantly become uninhabitable...will it?"

However, even as she's asking, she isn't wasting time...instead she heads back to the door to join the evacuation.
 

"Tell the Taelros to make a micro-jump to the edge of the system. I doubt the auto-pilot of this thing is good enough to calculate new jumps. It will probably orient on the new position and head there. Give us time to disable the engines or breakthrough the programming."
