TSO 3: Recovery from the Wreckage

Alandra spends some time putting together a specialized system in the med-bay and is pleased with the result the analysis of all data, whether scrambled or not, noticeably accelerates. you will have to tinker with this each time you want to analyze something new but for now it is focused on analyzing the crystal pathogen/life form. She hooks all the monitors surrounding the captains quarters into this specialized processor as well as the few remote sensors she and sam installed to monitor the pod and captain.As You arrive at the room Alandra checks on the sensors and is relieved to see that the crystal has not expanded to the exterior of the captain's quarters at this time. Entering you sweep the air and surfaces before entering once assured that the crystals spores have continued to be removed from the air. Moving into the captains rooms she is slightly surprised to see that the once featureless pod has shifted. From a simple dome like structure of metal you now look at an effigy of the captain made entirely of crystal. Scanning before moving closer it is revealed that the pod has once again grafted itself to the deck, power, and data relays, but seems to have stopped spreading further. From what her scans tell her the crystal has stopped once it reaches several of the quarters control systems and the power supply. Just like sending down roots and branches to soak up nutrient.

Krom checks the ship status to find Sam has managed to get the hyperdrive active but it requires a jump point to work and with the state of the navigations/astrological database the destination is slightly questionable though Sam and Avro are improving the odds daily. Luckily the engines use the slip drive and with your stealth tech you can likely outrun the larger ship. Krom figures in a straight up fight you would likely get crushed but using the stealth and holo systems to surprise the ship you might be able to disable a couple systems before they are able to properly respond.
