I'll find you... (Head Engineer Mark X Reader)

Fix Life Support

You quickly ran to the life support room, which was conveniently, right next door. If it wasn't for the giant valves at the back of the room, you wouldn't have known what to do. Luckily it had been framed by lots of beautiful plants. But now wasn't the time to admire the scenery.

OXYGEN LEVELS RISING

GOOD NEWS, CAPTAIN.

THE MOMENTARY LAPSE IN OXYGEN EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE ON THE BRIDGE.

Phew! At least you can rest easy knowing nothing is going to explode now.

WARNING! BRACE FOR IMPACT

BOOM!

"Oh come on!" You yelled. You told Mark he shouldn't have used explosives, but as usual, he didn't listen.

ALERT! HULL BREACH DETECTED

ASTEROID DEFENSE SYSTEM IS OFFLINE

You ran out the room looking to find the source of the explosion.

DISREGARD PREVIOUS STATEMENT CAPTAIN.

THE ASTEROID DEFENSE SYSTEM IS WORKING AT 100% EFFICIENCY

ANY VIBRATIONS YOU ARE FEELING ARE SIMPLY THE GUNS WORKING TO KEEP YOU SAFE

You ran to the ADS room, as clearly something was not right with ADS. Pulling open the door you spotted red dots forming on your uniform.

"Ah shi-" The guns began firing at you. You quickly shut the door, hoping that they would stop firing. Computer tried to tell you to get somewhere safe, but you needed to fix this. You are the Captain after all.

Pulling out your spacePad, totally not a space iPad, you looked through the names. Who could deal with this? Ah yes, Gunther B. Gunnerson, he could definitely fix it. Clicking on his name you waited.

A sudden scream pierces the air. You turn around to see Gunther fall from a hole in the ceiling.

"The B stands for bullet, and I heard you had a little problem on your hands, captain?" You quickly explained the situation to the mad man and he quickly got to work. Although you would prefer it if he didn't shoot the door locks with every entry and exit. You heard a lot of screaming and gun shots before one final explosion. The door opened. "Problem solved, cap. Next time, give me a challenge."

ALERT. COOLANT LEAK IN CRYO.

You've never seen someone run from a task as quick as Gunther did from helping you. He made up some excuse about needed to make sure ADS was running smoothly before shutting himself in the room, leaving you to deal with the problem.

You unlocked the door to Cryo and were hit with a wave of freezing cold air, some ice now sitting on your jumpsuit. The door began to close again.

WARNING. COLONISTS CORE TEMPERATURE RISING.

IRREPARABLE HARM WILL OCCUR IF THE COLONISTS STASIS TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO RISE.

MANUAL INTERVENTION IS REQUIRED, CAPTAIN.

Guess it's time to wake up CC. She won't be too happy about this...
