Kato groaned and clenched the bed with his fingers as Andy pressed down on the wound. "Don't be...sorry." He groans. Then the engine shut off. Somehow, Andy managed to get him strapped down and hold on tightly, screaming all the while as they came in for a horribly rough landing. When it was finally still he looked through the fog in his eyes for Andy. "Andy?" She'd been thrown across the room and he was helpless to help her. "Andy!?"

Timo was thrown into the wall was the engines shut down. Another heavy bounce and he was thrown towards the railing where he managed to grab hold and hung on for dear life. Tears streamed down his face in a panic. They finally landed and with shaky legs he hurried straight over to Mike who was in a precarious position. "Mike! Mike!" Even in his panic he remembered the things Mike had taught him about the gears and how to operate them. He sprints across the room, dancing over fallen object that were strewn around the place. One of the cupboards had flown open spilling its contents everywhere. Timo threw items aside like a mad man till he found the crank for the gears. He grabbed a ladder, setting it up then climbed to the spot he needed to be. He shoved the crank into place just shy of Mike's fingers and pumped it as hard and fast as he was capable of. A few minutes later, Mike dropped with a heavy thud. Timo jumped off the later, kneeling at his side. The man's arm and head were bleeding heavily. There was so much blood...it scared him. He sprinted off for help, running to the medbay. "Kato! Kato, help! Mike! He's seriously hurt! Help!"
Kato lifted his head looking up at Timo whose eyes were wide with panic. "What happened?"
"Mike...he got his arm caught in the gears. He's bleeding bad. His head too!"
"Timo...listen to me carefully." Kato took a deep breath, concentrating on the boy despite the pain. "You need grab two packets of the blood clotting agent....pour one on the wound on his head and the other on his arm. Depending on how big the cut is, you may need to use two on his arm. Then get some bandages and wrap both wounds best you can. Can you do that?"
Timo nods and rushes off to do as he was instructed, still panicked but desperate to save his mentor.

Star blinked open her eyes. Her vision blurred in and out several times before she fully came to. The initial turbulence after the engines cut out had thrown her head against the controls of the gun. Everything had gone black then. She sat up slowly, her head spinning and her body feeling like it had been punched several time. Killian was curled up in a ball next to her, clearly in obvious pain as he sat up. "Killian? What happened?"
He was distracted though and called into his headset, "What's going on in the engine room?"
Timo's panicked voice fame over the comm. "Killian! Help...Mike's hurt bad. I'm...I'm trying to...to stop the bleeding. Kato's hurt too."
Star raised head in shock. The movement was too fast, and black and red spots entered her vision. Blood dripped down her forehead from a small cut and she swiped it away. "Killian, what's happening? Did our engines get shot out?"
