...a trail of fire arching behind him.

"The vents are releasing!! We must hurry!"

Orion grabbed a handle connected to his side, and at the press of a button, it extended into a large sword. In on smooth motion, Orion brought it over his head, and swung it "downward" through the cable, snapping it in half.

"There's no time to leave the area, everyone get behind us!"

The Astro-Gestalt spread his big arms, pushing everyone behind him.

"Brace yourselves..."

Now the entire part of the blast doors glowed, as they began to warp under the extreme pressure. They bulged out, straining to keep the Energon plasma within the ship, but finally they gave way, as the plasma exploded into space, sending the doors spiralling off. Orion steadied itself, as it clasped its hands together, holding the sword parrallel to its body. The plasma hit the sword, deflecting around it. White streaks curled around Orion, which soon gave way to a totally white bubble, obscuring the view of Orion, and all that he was trying to protect. It was yet to be seen if they would make it...

On the Nova*Beacon, those with breath to hold, held it in anticipation. Would the plan work? Would it backfire? All they could do is watch. Ferris Magnum being the most nervous of all, sat in his chair, gripping the sides of it with clenched hands.
