Sample text:

After the incident with the TDF Vasco De Gamma, where it ended up 50,000 light years from its intended destination, it seemed like a prudent requirement. Well, thought Richard, how right they were.

Lorna was tapping at her keyboard again, happy to have a purpose.

The attention tone beeped in the captain's display and Richard activated the pick-up. It revealed the image of Yoshi in a hard vacuum suit. A sense of dreadful foreboding twisted his stomach. “Go ahead, Yoshi.”

“Captain, I’ve reached the bulkhead at Engineering. The tell-tale signs on this side of the door show it’s over 1800 degrees in there. I can’t get a visual as the cameras are down. But…” Richard saw Yoshi's look of despair as he shook his head, “I'm sorry, sir, there’s no way any of the engineering crew could’ve survived.”

“No way?” Richard responded, rhetorically, as he processed the likely deaths of his crew.

Yoshi shook his head slowly, sharing his captain’s pain. “No. I can’t see it, sir.”

Richard lowered his head, rubbing his forehead gently. Chief Engineer Michelle Logan and he had been friends for almost thirty years, since he had joined Zurich Lines. They had crewed the long-haul cargo runs from the asteroid belt to the inner planets; they were godparents to each other’s children. Now, in an instant, she was gone. How was he going to break the news to her husband?

Yoshi’s tinny voice jolted his captain back to the present. “With your permission, sir, I’m gonna seal the next bulkhead back from Engineering and then pump out the air from between the two — use it like an air lock. If the fire’s consumed all the oxygen in Engineering then there's no point in giving it the fuel to re-ignite.”
