Wasting no more time with injured crew men aboard the crew of the Firestar send across the shuttle with the spare parts for fixing the engine.
After retrieving the scout drone the Firestar fire's it's engines and shoots off towards the station.
During the time it takes to reach the station the crew mills about doing what ever they feel is useful.
Such as maintaince on some of the systems, percise messurement of the Firestar's acceleration (which proves unquestionably that it is by far the fastest ship you have record of) and repairs to the railguns (the crew has noticed damage the railguns has taken, it seems firing non standard ammunition has taken it's toll on them)
And in a short time you arrive.
You declare a medical emergency to the docking computer and it gives you priority docking.
A score of EMTs are waiting for you when you dock.
In a flurry they carry the two criticaly wounded crewmembers and John off for treatment.
The one missing a leg is given a low chance of survival as he has multiple internal injuries, the crew member with the broken ribs and the punctured lung will take a few days to recover and John is out after a few hours with his arm in a cast.
In more upbeat news you get 1200 credits for the drone clearance and the client reminds you that the reward for finding the person or people responsible is still open.
