The bridge crew began to prepare to abandon the ship.
 
 
The Brisbane began to withdraw from the battlefield, pulling away from the city. Soon, another explosion shook the ship.

The captain hesitated for a second before giving the order that every captain hated to give. "All hands, Abandon ship! Repeat, All Hands, Abandon Ship!"

“I'm waiting,” Pattie said.

“Ah, yes,” Nyssis said.

“Any unusal activity in the past few days?”

“I saw a ship near North Lawnton Park last night,” Pattie responded.
