“How did they get past our shields?!” Your Neimodian supervisor screams at you, spittle flying in your face while your mind works frantically, trying to figure out how those pesky Alliance shuttles got past the ray shielding. None of that seems to matter anymore when you hear the metallic thunk on the other side of the hull.
“What was that?” He asks, face pale. You think you know the answer, but your throat’s clamped up, too tight to speak.
Suddenly, four red-hot pinpricks appear on the bulkhead. They start moving in a circle, leaving a molten line around them.
Your Neimodian supervisor points a shaky finger at the lines of magma. “They’re cutting through!”
Suddenly, the cutting stops. You share a look with your supervisor, who then looks back over his shoulder.
“Let’sa get out of here,” his voice quavers.
You hear another thunk, then the section of hull blasts inward and goes shooting across the room, slamming into your supervisor along the way and pinning him to the wall. Or what’s left of him. The atmosphere leaves the room in a whoosh, scooping you up and taking you with it.
The sudden depressurization ruptures your lungs. You can’t breathe. Your eyesight is fading.
The last thing you notice is the section of hull, cut in a circle. A perfect circle.

After all this is complete, the fifty well-armed marines inside the ship can pour into the enemy vessel and begin boarding actions.
