She stops the fighter... somehow...

You don't know what Osha could do to help, but right now you don't have a lot of options.

"Osha," you say. "If there's anything you can do, you'd better do it now." She walks towards Vel and says, "I will need to access your communications." Vel watches for your nod, and when you give it to her she vacates her seat. Osha immediately sits down in front of the comm console. You quickly walk over to watch what she's doing over her shoulder. She activates several controls and appears to be hailing the pirate ship. And then, she does.... nothing. She simply sits there, unmoving. You're about to shake her by the shoulder when you hear an audio transmission over the main comm, heavily garbled with too much static. You can make out a voice, but you can't hear what it's saying.

Suddenly, on the main display you see the pirate fighter's movements become erratic. It makes several abrupt turns, and you see the glow of its engines dim and finally fade. "We're rapidly gaining on the contact," Vel says, now seated at the helm. Kalis looks up at you from her seat by the weapons console. "We'll be in weapons range within 10 seconds." Looking back at the viewscreen, you see the immobilized fighter drifting through space. You see the engines light up for a second, and then die down again; the pilot is trying to restart the engines with no success.

You have no idea what Osha did, but she appears to have pulled off a miracle.

"Target now in weapons range."
