Engine Start Up Over Terminus

An ominous rumble sounded throughout the ship as the massive ion engines roared to life. Dormant for months while the exterior of the corvette was being repaired, the ship's crew were apprehensive as to whether the engines would still start.

"Coolant pumps are running a little hot, but besides that all is running smoothly!" shouted the technician over the hum of the pumps he was checking.

"Good," replied the lead engineer, "the captain wants us fully operational within a week, something about a new deployment.

With a laugh the technician muttered, "We haven't even cleaned the rust from the inside, does the captain even realize this ship is almost 3 years old."

"Oh he realizes, command just doesn't care about how the interior looks, they just care about getting ships to the front line."
