Location: A Very Wet Engine Room

Souji rather hoped his journal could be dried out later, and that Hijikata wouldn't do anything too drastic at the abrupt end of their conversation. He'd found something fairly waterproof to stash the device in, and was back to searching for whatever had gone wrong. There shouldn't have been so much water--it was nearing his waist now--and he couldn't understand what had gone wrong. Everything had looked fine when they'd left, the pipes had been sound...

It must have been something they couldn't see... or something that had appeared fine... maybe one of the dials had been jambed and giving a wrong reading? It didn't really matter now... with the amount of water sloshing around in the bottom of the ship instead of running through the engine, he knew the likelihood of the ship staying in the air was very slim. With any luck, they'd at least make it a safe crash landing.

The water was still rising, and he still hadn't found the leak. It was almost enough to make a mild-mannered mechanic curse. Almost.
