The final bullet barked from the bolters signalling the assured death of the Xenos. Krondo watched the sisters do their jobs, and once the Sister Retributor spoke up, he nodded. "I can access the ship's comm log but I think I will need to access their main terminal on the bridge. Regarding the scout, he will live, though we will have to amputate the arm." He turned to the prisoner and spoke, "Greetings soldier, how did you end up in this miserable place?"

My ability to fight just reduced by 7.3 percents putting me at only 3.72 times better than an average scout. Bigby try copy Krondo voice (without effort to do it properly). He may have lost some of the blood and a few teeth, but not his strange sense of humor.
Rattling is looking forward to hear what the saved scout could share.

"Don't do that again" she scoffed, although it was clear she was somewhat entertained.
"Check the scout, tech adept. I know they will scour him for the taint, so, I ask you to check if there is ANYTHING that could make him turn on us".

The PDF scout attempts to salute but, that’s the hand that is half disintegrated. He looks at the bones staring a few moments at his own skeleton before he finally snaps out of it. "Scout Specialist First class Reynold Jaamson ma’am. We arrived at the ship , the doors were wide open and nobody looked to be inside. Standard scout around the ship and placement of krak mines then we began the sweep into the interior. Next thing I know I am waking up in this Warp dammed place. Best guess is the xenos gassed the entry area when we walked in, something odorless and tasteless that worked fast."
He gives a nod and says, "I have no words that can thank you and yours nearly enough. Even with the hand gone I have no doubt of the horrors we might have continued to face if you had not come.".

"And secure this damn bridge! I've had enough of Xenos' toys for one day!"

Assuming Sister Retributor Domitia Jurgena want party to assault to the flight deck (now wounded) Bigby dare to point out lack of combat tactics:
May I request to stay behind. I'm used to Ogryn being front-line, snipers covering from behind

Krondo looked at every part of Reynold's body, trying to figure out if there was any hidden xenotech implanted as a failsafe.
OOC: 4 successes, excluding the 6's. I can use them for shifts if necessary. Is our PDF scout implanted with Xenotech?

Cassia stares long and hard at Bigby, though he wouldn't have known her expression due to her helmet. When she turns away, she addresses the scout.
"You didn't investigate for footprints? If the doors were open, there's no telling how many xenos left the ship before you arrived. More to the point, PDF first class where are your sentries? And reserves? Your operation seems haphazard at best, and you've yet to tell us how big your scouting contingent even was."

There is no Xenotech implanted in the scout. The Scout Specialist First Class responds to the questioning as is appropriate to a senior officer. "We were eleven. Seargent Gillain was in charge and I took Alpha team. That’s me Private Delain, Serunal, Ravenna, and Salustaa to do the scout around the ship and plant charges. No footprints were seen and so we reported. Sergeant Gillain kept two of Bravo team with him at the vehicle to man the turret and sent Alpha team in with the rest of Bravo waiting outside las rifles ready. Looks like Scout Specialist Second Class Smith, who was outside, is well….
He shivers looking over at the man with an ape lower torso, "Whatever that furred creature is in that cage…it’s not for me to say ma’am but, mutated like that he’s not going to survive long." He shrugs and adds, "Can’t say what happened outside or to the rest of Bravo team. Best guess is nothing good." He looks over at the tube filled with blood and body parts and then looks away.
If the door is opened you note that the cockpit area, along with the cogitator in there is empty. Additionally the area below, where the weird item that activates web way gates and ship service areas are, is also free of Xenos.

Krondo reported back to Sister Jurgena, "I don't see any xenotech implants so I think he is atleast free from any xenotech heresy." When Krondo noticed the empty cockpit and the cogitator, he spoke to the Sisters, "I will try to unravel their communication from that cogitator. Please provide me cover and sweep the cockpit while I investigate the cogitator."
Krondo entered the cockpit and approached the cogitator with caution. He then uttered binary hymn of self protection and machine spirit interference to weaken the xenotech's protection barriers. Finally satisfied he tried to operate the cogitator in order to find it's mysteries.

Seeing how Sister Cassia is lashing out at the PDF scout who barely survived and experienced lost his all comrades rattling unpacks one of his rations and offer scout some of it's content: Food help suppress stress - with his mouth full already rattling consuming some of the content already.

"We move forward now. Grant the Emperor's peace to that monster if he cannot be saved" The Retributor ordered, reaching the tech adept.
"What did you find?"

Krondo scours the cogitator and finds some more evidence of previous incursions. Sadly nothing seems to indicate a specific person. You have some leads but, nothing fully concrete. Beyond that the Xenos have thoroughly scrubbed the data.
You can easily free the rest of Alpha team and grant peace to the poor man who has ape legs. Beyond that there’s not much left here beyond ensuring the ship is turned to scrap.

Cassia walks over to where the ape man stands, and raises her bolter. She doesn't say a prayer for the man's soul, the abhorrence of mutation an unfortunate step beyond salvation whether intentional or not. Still, she grants him eternal peace in the form of a bolter shell to the man's head, before turning ready to depart the ship at a moment's notice.

Krondo furrowed his eyebrows, "Hmm, either the xenos are intelligent enough that they have erased the records of their activities or they are protected beyond my expertise. I am not getting any noteworthy communication. All I can see is some previous attempt at planetary incursion, but nothing concrete. It is highly likely that they have erased any noteworthy information." He took his data slate, created a copy of the data, and transferred it for future reference.
He turned to Sister Jurgena, "Sister, I can try to overload their fuel reservoir and blow up the ship. Your orders?"

Volunteer to sneak out check for possible ambushes outside. with mouth still full Bigby prefer to leave the place as soon as possible.

"That fact is dangerous in itself, Venerable Krondo. I'm almost tempted to cordoon this ship and run deeper tests. I want to know what they wanted" Sister Retributor Domitia Jurgena shook her head. "There is something rotten here, and I want to know more. You are free to go out, Bigby. I don't know if there are other foul Xenos around".
The veteran shook her head. "We are moving. Let's get out of here"

Krondo nodded at the Sister, "Whatever you wish, Sister Jurgena, but I suggest we sabotage atleast some part of this ship so that it won't reach the atmosphere in an event the foul xenos return back."

Krondo looked at the cogitator of the command terminal and started operating it. He tried to block the promethean valves and sabotaged their control mechanism. Only way to operate them will be by manual override. Then he tried to sabotage the navigation system and shut down power supply by completely draining the power nodes, even the backup ones.
OOC: Making tech roll to see if this can be done.
