A second alarm begins to sound, but before Tora can check it, her entire ship is violently rocked. A blinding light pierces the windows and a deafening sound echoes throughout the ship.
As the Bug fighter rolls onto its side, she is thrown against the hull. With a sickening lurch, the Bug balances precariously on two legs before landing aright with a thud. Tora rolls onto the floor, legs askew, hands clasping her jolted head. Blinking her eyes, she cannot clear them, not even to see what she suspects is dark blue blood on her hands.
Must morph, she tells herself, trying to focus on her human form. Taking a deep breath to steel herself, she abruptly coughs from the thick smoke that creeps into her lungs.
