My name is Ellie, and I am an ordinary starship repairman in the Interstellar Federation. Every day, I shuttle between the complex pipes and precision instruments of the huge starship, tightening screws, calibrating energy lines, and listening to the sound of tools hitting metal. My life is ordinary and stable.
It was an ordinary working day, but the sound of sirens suddenly broke the tranquility. An exploration starship that was severely damaged by an unknown energy storm made an emergency landing at our base. When I rushed to the repair site, I was shocked by the sight before me: the hull was riddled with holes, the energy core was flashing with unstable light and could explode at any time.
