Circuitry fizzled as one of the lights sputtered out and shattered and the corridor filled with a haze of red-lit smoke. A steady hiss accompanied the addition of another weak alarm, signaling that the atmosphere was beginning to leak out in some sections of the transport ship.At one end of the corridor, the sound of a smal
