[OOM] Transimir Station, Lower Levels.

After their twelve hours inside the safe house, there's a sharp ringing from the computer, and a hum and click from the door.

The ringing lasts all of a few minutes, before the blurry Kaleesh appears again.

"Meet us on the Central Bridge. Your computer has a map." With that, he's gone again.

"Thanks." Guppy says to both of them. He crawls over to the nearest available seat, with one next to him for Will, and straps himself in as best he can, keeping his head low.

"Will, can you bring the bandages please? How hurt are you? Honestly? If you help me get rubber gloves on over the kolto I can help you, otherwise I can talk you through it."

He pulls his trouser leg up with the edge of one finger, trying to get a look at what's bleeding down his leg. Having established that he hasn't severed any major vessels, he balances that leg on his knee and uses his forearms to apply pressure above the wound.

The ship shakes a little, then harder.

"We're taking some fire. Those Interdictors are designed to hit much bigger targets than us, so we should be alright until they send out fighters. The Wyrm doesn't seem to be firing at all, yet."

Will gets the gloves for Guppy, and takes off his cloak to see. The claws ripped right throw his shirt and the slashes range from not too deep to one long and deep on down his side,

"Na sure, 'urts a good bit, but dinna think its too bad."

Guppy gets the gloves on, somehow, and quickly applies a firm dressing to his own leg before tending to Will, because if he does his usual party trick of passing out when he loses blood he won't be a lot of help.

"That one will need stitching or fusing." he says, indicating the big slash. "When we can get the bleeding to slow down anyway." He grabs a large pad and applies pressure, his hands still shaking more than the ship.

He hopes he didn't kill too many people back there, not least the two aliens who helped them with sanctuary. But there wasn't really any way to have collected them.

Its worrying how Guppy is shaking and Will pats his shoulder,

"We're alive, Guppy."

Guppy's gut feeling is to say 'I don't know how much more of this I can take'.

But he doesn't, because he doesn't have a choice; it's take it or die.

Everything seems to be going wrong, and he's struggling to have faith that they're going to make it through alive.

As the ship gives a judder, it occurs to him that he hasn't taken his motion sickness medication. However suddenly that doesn't seem very important any more.

"Let's get you cleaned up." he manages to say to Will. "Put plenty of pressure on the wounds, get some kolto on the pads to speed it up."

"Aye."

Will would give him a hug but he's hurting and thinking along the same lines just not as much about death more just worry. Focusing on putting pressure on his wounds helps.

"We're hitting the atmosphere," Lagos says. "The interference should stop them from getting a lock on us. They'll have to send ships after us or wait for us to leave."

As the ship stops shaking, but starts tilting. After all, getting towards the planet's surface means a force of gravity greater than that of the ship's artificial gravity, and all that entails.

It's only a small tilt, though.

"... Now we just have to find Atton."
