Zero doesn't even need to move anywhere, he can be sytem operator from any scomp link in the ship.
Njon moves into the right hand co-pilots seat.
As you clear the rim of the atmospheric shield Dez remembers that there are 4 turbolaser batteries spaced around the rim of the one kilometer wide crater where the mining facility is based. They are usually used to destroy/deflect asteroids that stray too close to the base, but they are perfectly capable of targetting ships.
Zero also knos about these, but is also aware they are powwered by the main reactor that he set to do a shut-dowwn and restart. The emergency generators provide enough power for limited lighting and life support, not enough to power turbolasers. You will need to get clear of their targettng range before the power restores. Time is of the essence as the reactor will already be finishing diagnostic and getting restarted.
As you pull away into the chaotic jumble of moving and constantly colliding asteroids that comprise the Minefield you all hear through Ubi and Dez's commlinks the message from the droid 'Long' repeat ~"Captain Sun I cannot stay within range of the Rock's turbolasers, if I keep the Wildcard within the Minefield she will be pulverised to nothing but a debris field before I can affect repairs to her shields. There are Imperials all over outside the Minefield. It is not safe here. Now that the hyperdrive is online I will jump to your last logged astrogation destination. I will wait there and see to care of your cargo for one week. or until your cargo dictates otherwise. This message will repeat."~
