| Far above the Colony world K-Zon confronts the many dangers surrounding Mazda as she attempts to wed someone determined to kill her, only to learn the ship they are on it about to be blown to bits Mazda and K-Zon escape in a hacked escape craft, only to be... lost in space! |

| <~Inga> Inga walked out of Mad Max's Body Shop, looking none worse for the wear. If only it was easier for her to FEEL as fixed as she was. She sighed, and pulled out her phone, hitting an auto-dial. "Hi, it's me. Can I come over?" A pause. "Thanks." |
| <~Inga> Her eyes hold a mix of relief and shame as she climbs into the back of the skycab and gives an address. |
| <~Inga> The cabbie's Martian accent is thick as he tries to make conversation; he's friendly, but she's not in the mood to talk. |
| <~Inga> Finally the cab stops in an unsavory part of town. Inga gets out, looking to see if anyone sees her, or recognizes her. Using her training, she avoids the ubiquitous cameras until she makes it to the apartment - 46. She knocks on the door. |
| <~Inga> The door opens - it's Ogurun. Inga immediately kisses him. "Thanks, I needed this." She leads him to his bed. |

| »» K-Zon pulls Mazda along by the wrist as they make the final turn to the starboard lifeboat bays and climb inside one of the pods. |
| <&Narrator_JP> The pod door is quite large, obviously meant to support more than just people. |
| <&Narrator_JP> Turning about inside the circular center chamber of the pod, there are benches for five couples apparent and doors leading to other areas of the craft. |
| »» K-Zon secures the door, disengages the locks, and prepares to fire the ejection thrusters. |
| <&Narrator_JP> The warm sounding voice of a elderly lady booms out from the escapes craft's speakers: "Oh, welcome to the premier escape craft of Robertson's systems. We are sorry for the disaster that is happening, but we will do our best to protect your lives." |
| <&Narrator_JP> Old Lady Pod Voice (OLPV): "Please, start the escape process by wiring your Sig key's into the registration port." |
| »» K-Zon eyes the closest speaker menacingly. |
| <K-Zon> "Mazda, take the controls. As soon you get manual control I want you to start the ejection thrusters." |
| »» K-Zon begins hacking into the pod's systems... |
| <&Narrator_JP> Mazda nods, "Ok..." she tries the nearest door. It won't open. |
| »» K-Zon starts trying to burn through the pod's systems as quickly as possible. |
| »» K-Zon manages to gain access to the doors and environmental controls, and turns off the annoying voice circuit as a bonus. |
| <&Narrator_JP> OLPV: "Oh my dear... what arrrrrrrrrrrrrr. BEEP." |
| <&Narrator_JP> Mazda: "Are you hacking this thing? Really? How did you get past the immediate authorization block?" |
| »» K-Zon checks the countdown until the battleship arrives and decides to just overload all the pod's security circuits in the hopes of gaining full control and nav access. |
| <K-Zon> "I'll be happy to chat about it once we're sipping cocktails somewhere..." |
| <&Narrator_JP> The overload causes the CPU to glitch and the security processes to crash, one by one. BLIP... BLIP... they go off the visual. |
| »» K-Zon grimaces as a bead of sweat rolls down his face. |
| <K-Zon> "Hit the ejection thrusters.. .and hold on." |
| »» K-Zon starts working on the throwing open the locks... |
| <K-Zon> The pod starts to shake in its cradle as the thrust builds up. With a sharp *TANG* the locking mechanism gives way and the pods hurdles out of its launch tube. |
| <&Narrator_JP> The Pod crashes out of the cosmetic plating over the launch tube with a blast, sending particulate molten plastic coasting through the cold of space were it slowly cools into random shapes. |
| <&Narrator_JP> The pod-like craft hurtles aways at far greater than its normally velocity, until the thrusters overload and burnout from the abuse shortly after. |
| <&Narrator_JP> The craft now drifts in space with much excess velocity. |
| <&Narrator_JP> The liner behind them implodes a minute later with the force of many megatons, creating a wave of energy that rockets back out into space to quickly fade away into the din of cosmic radiation. Its almost beautiful to behold. |
| <&Narrator_JP> The burst of energy burns out the uplink on the escape craft and likely all the uplinks in this sector of space. |
