Re: Destiny- Engine Room 2
"Ah don't...don'tell me, ah'm not wantin' t'know. S'better not knowin'." Charlie shook her head, peeking an eye open to make sure he was covered. She tried to get over it, but he was right there. She swallowed and stepped to the engine, putting her back to the man right away as she began to look over the components, letting out a slow breath. The fuel lines were still intact, the electrical outputs were still collected to the navigational manifold...most of it looked intact.
She lowered herself down to look at the bottom of the engine, getting on her knees as she reached under the large machine and felt around. There was nothing wrong, maybe the jump had happened before they...there it is. Charlie's fingers touched the cold steel of something that wasn't part of the engine, and she didn't have to get a good look to know what it was. She let out a sigh, sliding onto her back and getting more under the engine, this new development taking the dead man off her mind.
"Gorram." She muttered, trying to get her fingers around the edges of the silver box to see how it was attatched. Were they to start up the engine with it attatched, it would begin to burn the fuel in both directions, causing the engine to seize or the fuel cells to explode. Either one would render Destiny grounded with several thousand in repairs needed. "Tell Ren, he's gotta shut th'whole thing down. Everythin, even life support's gotta go dark...can't be givin' this chance t'be flarin' up an'destroyin' everythin' that's got us goin'..."
