The Intruder

Plot
TOM and Sarah are having a regular conversation in the control room when something shakes the Absolution. Investigating, TOM finds a hole in the right engine, which he wonders what the cause of is. Sarah cannot give any conclusive data, so TOM seals the hole with a sheet of metal, unaware a red blob is slowlt moving below. Back on deck TOM lis infromed that there is an intruder in the engine, but Sarah cannot detect what it is. TOM goes to investigate with a loaded weapon, but is knocked into space by the red blob, out of its own fear. Sarah sends some drones to retrieve TOM as he reactivates. Requesting a jetpack, TOM soon returns to the ship bridge to learn that the intruder is on three different decks at the same time. Sending drones to investigate, TOM sees that the Intruder is eating the ship as the drone is consumed by it. Heading down for round two, TOM finds the intruder has grown in size and fails to shoot it into submission, being consumed by it. Sarah begins downloading his memories, personality and such into a taller, sleeker and darker 2.0 version of TOM as the Intruder continues to eat the engine. Once TOM wakes up, Sarah orders him to blow the engine off of the absolution to save the ship. TOM complies, sending the engine and the intruder off into the depths of space. On a different deck, TOM calls a repair shop for replacement egines and leanrs that he canot get another pair of engines like the one he lost, having to order out of three different brands. Arriving a month later at the repair station, TOM orders the Talon S.T.s as chosen by the audiance. After another month of work, the Absolution leaves for more adventures.
