(The thruster is detached Hunter. We're in a million pieces.)

"I'll see if I can get the thruster to fire." He went to the control panel and started messing with the system, trying to get the thruster to fire it's engine. Bringing it back to orbit speed. The thruster fired but in the wrong direction, causing it to fly towards the planet faster.

(Well I know we're in pieces, but I thought you implied in your last post that we were still maintaining a stable orbit using the thrusters. I guess I misread it.)

"Well, the situation is getting a little messy. We could exit orbital speed too at any moment," Hunter said as the ship gave another shudder. He wasn't sure whether it was due to an unstable orbit or debris from the asteroid field. "And it doesn't look like the ship's computer system is going to be much help."

(Leaking fuel and inertia dampeners slowed the thrusters down. Most of the ship doesn't have inertia dampeners. Only the thrusters because they have the most strain)

"I wouldn't worry. A ship of this size has the ability to stay in orbit using the gravity generators, and there should be more A.I. If I can find them." He said, watching the thruster fall toward the planet. "Goodbye northern hemisphere."

Hunter gritted his teeth. "Yikes. I hope there aren't any sentient races living on that planet..." he said grimly. He walked back over to the Zephyr ships and started attempting to start them up, now that they had been retrofitted to work out in the asteroid field. Hopefully their modifications would work enough for them to function in a vacuum long enough to salvage some useful materials. "The sooner we get out of here, the better," he said.

[Planet scan completed. This was a failed colony under the direction of the Republic Empire Of Sol. C.E 4821. It was destroyed during a Nuclear Bombardment on the planet. It is inhospitable for carbon based lifeforms and is extremely rich in minerals. In the current state of ship disrepair, it is advisable to use resources from the planet to repair the Orion.] "Did the Orion say C.E 4821? It was only 3057 when we got on the Orion." He turned to Hunter. "The Zephr has to be completely recoded. Good thing is we don't have to do it ourselves. We can put a vacuum control chip in it and it can operate."

"Man, that's so surreal. We've been out for over 1000 years..." Hunter replied. "I know that's what we signed up for, but it's still hard to absorb."

He looked over to the Zephr. "Where can we find a vacuum control chip for it?" he asked.

"The trip was only supposed to take ten years. No one knows where we are." [Transmission Intercepted. Would you like me to play it?] "Yes Orion." ["We have lost contact with the Orion. It's the most advanced ship in our fleet. We NEED to recover it. Send every search and rescue ship we have." This message was sent over 980 years ago.]

Hunter sat on the floor in defeat. "What are we going to do? The fleet we left with will all be long gone now. So is everyone we ever knew..." he trailed off. The wolf wore a haunted look on his face. "Nobody's coming to help us," he said as the grim realization dawned on him.

"Orion, devote all unneeded power to intercept transmissions." [All unneeded power rerouted] He then watched the thruster get close to the planet,  when a flash of light appeared, shot through the thruster, obliterating it, nearly hitting the rest of the Orion. "I take that back. I quess the Northern Hemisphere is safe for now."

Hunter dashed over to the viewport, gazing out into space where the loose thruster had been. "Woah, what was that? Could there be some civilization down there after all?" he asked excitedly. "Maybe the computer's information was wrong, and the colony down there isn't actually abandoned. We could be in the clear here!"

The prospect of someone living who could rescue them from their stranding restored a little hope for Hunter.

"Something that big would require alot of power. It is possible this entire planet is a power plant, meaning lot's of radiation." [Dyson Sphere Detected.] "But that would give it enough power."

"A Dyson Sphere?! With something that sophisticated installed in this system, there must be someone down there! At least to maintain it..." Hunter said hopefully. "It's possible the original colony was abandoned, and that's what the computer meant. See if you can get it to try to make contact, maybe intercept a radio frequency or something," he asked. He was holding out hope they'd find somebody who could help them.
