[Another part of the Compound]
t'Kunel dragged her arm along the floor of the jeffereies tube to her face before turning her palm down while bringing her other arm to her side to lift herself up. The sudden movement from awaking throbbed in her head as she tried to open her eyes through the pain.
She blinked many times through the blur to reveal a jefferies that contained ruptured conduits one of which was leaking gas which alerted her of the horse throat she had, she held on to her cough. Pranara t'Kunel heaved her body weight upward leaning on a bulkhead while she held her head in her hands.
The head ache throbbed violently in her head, making thinking almost impossible as she tried to remember her reason for being there. She looked down seeing her tricorder feet away, obviously she was knocked unconscious during a battle for the item was strewn so far away from her. It literally took her minutes to gain the strength and will for to push onward through the pain.
T'Kunel picked herself up and crawled to her tricorder, squinting to read the contents as she opened it. Reading the data caused her to look above her head till her eye's followed a tube of wiring to an access terminal on the wall. The small door to the opening hung loosely on it's hinges. There was an occasional spark which caused the surroundings of the cavity to glow in sequence.
She moved her body weight toward the small access terminal, where a sonic screwdriver lay on the floor. It was obvious that she was working there before she became unconscious. Avoiding the sparks, she removed an Isolinier chip and placed in another socket three chips down. She picked up the screwdriver and placed it within the cavity making a small adjustment which caused the ship to hum slightly louder then it was before.
Merely concentrating on the task, caused her head to hurt as she gathered the rest of her tools that found there way in various parts of that section of Jeffrey's tube. Pranara closed the small door, securing the access terminal and moved down toward the exit hatch.
