Despite being a solid and reliable ship that could take a beating and still fly effortlessly, the Meteor was still just that: a ship. And just like any ship, if it wasn't properly maintained then it wouldn't function properly.
Sumas seemed to have learned that the hard way.
He had never bothered to actually properly go over his ship to make sure everything was fine and now he was suffering system failures in the middle of hyperspace. Thankfully the safety systems pulled him out and he managed to fly the ship to the nearest spaceport. Another stroke of luck was having a proper mechanic on board in the form of his friend, Skylar. The two haven't known each other that long but they were already close friends. Given their friendship was a rather interesting one, it wasn't exactly all that surprising.
"This is one place I haven't been to. Gonna have to watch our backs here." he commented over his shoulder as he steered the Meteor into position and touched down on a landing pad. "We're going to need to find the parts before we can get anything done. I hope you know what to look for." he commented casually as he rose from the pilot's seat and gave him a light bump on the shoulder. He picked up his helmet and slid it on before he walked to the cargo hold's ramp and lowered it to disembark.
The spaceport was bustling with all manner of characters. Smugglers, mercenaries, gangsters, bounty hunters and various other less-than-savoury people were all doing their own thing. Sumas stuck close to Skylar as they walked through the spaceport in search of a parts shop. "Glad you could tag along, though. I would have had trouble if you weren't along for the ride." he admitted with a chuckle as they walked.
