"Status report, Mr. Scott."
Scotty winced as he forced himself back onto his feet. Stumbling only a moment, he quickly returned to his station, his fingers immediately zoning in on the main control panel to assess the damage. He stifled a few choice curses as he hit the button for the conn. “They’ve hit one of our transfer conduits and affected our warp coils. I’m afraid we’ve temporarily lost warp, Mr. Spock.”
He let out a surprised shout when the panels on the engineering shaft beside him sparked wildly. Scotty moved down to a sub control panel and remotely cut off the power for the left main transfer conduits. “Get that shaft sealed!” He ordered, a handful of engineers running to the shaft as it ceased sparking.
A slight sigh of relief escaped as Scotty pressed the conn again. “They’ve shot us right in the leg, sir. We’re sitting ducks for the moment.”
