Orange Team Onward!

Arrival

Their flight path makes sure they are well out of the way of both the battles taking place and they get to the shield station within an hour as long as they fly quickly.

There are no enemy ships around but it is clear there has been an attack, the shield disk itself is damaged and there seems to be no power in the station.

Once they dock they will be met by some technicians who quickly explain the situation.

Help is needed everywhere. The power needs repaired, the shield needs repaired from the outside, there are injured technicians who need medical care. There is a small med-bay available.

Maintenance

Once the initial crisis is dealt with it is a case of keeping up with things. A patrol is needed to guard the station from other attacks, there are four shield stations in total and so the voidtreckers may chose to split themselves once things are a little calmer.

Keeping up the shields is an almost constant job, especially with the attacks. Once one thing is fixed it seems another thing is down. The maintenance itself is very technical but there are parts that can be done by the unskilled as long as they have direction.

"Luckily for us, we are capable of learning and adjusting to reality!"

Curufin hands Kaiba the new wires and watches him work. Kaiba has the hands for this kind of work.

Curufn does as requested. "You got it!"

"Perfect."

And after a few minutes, this connection is stable again. Everything seems in order...

"Just flip the next switch and we might be done for now."

He could use the break, at least. He's done repairs before, but all this tension is new.

Curufin grins.

It seems this repair is done, and well done!

He flips the next switch, as requested.

Thank goodness. Kaiba pulls back and rubs at his arm, nodding over at his partner.

"...mm. Not bad, I suppose. Looks like we held it together with duct tape for a few more hours."

Curufin offers Kaiba a high-five.

"Not bad at all. If it doesn't hold up for at least the next few hours, it won't be our fault. Or maybe it will. Maybe we didn't use the right brand of duct tape." Grin. Joke.
