While monitoring the connection to the disabled ship, Thorn suddenly saw the connection had been terminated. She cursed under her breath and tried to verify, but there was no response from the Cardassian system. Out of reflex, Thorn brought up the screen displaying the sensor readings of that ship. Her only expectation was to perhaps see that the CEO was struggling to keep their distribution network functional. What Thorn saw made her eyes go wide.
More curses flowed from her in a harsh whisper. The small but powerful Engineer was trying hard to analyze what she was seeing. The fact that the ship was now in two parts and they were slowly drifting apart gave he a new sense of urgency. That was when Thorn went back to the recorded data of when she first made the power connection, to see if something had gone wrong. As far as she knew, the power feed itself had not even been initiated yet. There was a change in the readings, but it made no sense to her. The increase in power signature didn't correspond to any of the other power readings. Her best speculation was that it had been some sort of stored munition that had been unstable. Some sort of reaction had built up just before the explosion.
Kalli gave a huff of frustration and tapped her comm badge, "Thorn to Bridge, we've lost the connection for an attempt at feeding them power, but it wasn't us that caused whatever happened. I have a Damage Control team standing by. Do you need us to deploy?"
