One could also try and self-destruct it on the inside or smash it through a cargo door and compromise the atmosphere and destroy the runabout in the process...
I figured we all use roughly the same engine tech but the hardware is vastly different. Slugs probably use microbes or something but it works just as well as the other engines and also runs on the same fuel...
Also, if you want to get the runabout in the air, you gotta wait for the reactor cores to cycle up because Eden has control of the cargo bay's gravity, the docking clamps used for large crates, etc... that's enough time for a bunch of combat-ready crazy cannibals to get in there and start shooting. Eden and her crew are not stupid enough to leave their runabout lying in the open with the keys in the ignition. One of my least favourite events in FTL was the Rebel prisoners one in Captain's Edition. For some reason there was a chance that the cadets you capture break loose and grab guns from your armoury as if the Federation descended from Vault 34 and left the weapons and power cells in the same unlocked room.
Yeah, I'd have my shuttles secured when not in use.

Nicholas breached the airlocks control pannel he just repaired forcing the opening of all the airlocks of the runabout .
All slugs rushed outside to fight , but where only 4 and where heavily outnubered .
After a few shot with an old blaster , he rushed in the melee to kill the last slug.
Inside the runabout every thing was as he left them.
"Capitain , the ruabout is securized . What should we do to stop that warship shooting at us ? why not board them via that runabout ?"

"Nice work there but we do have a teleporter!" Eden shouted to Nicholas "The runabout would be easy pickings for a warship if we tried boarding... it's not like they have supershields"
Lux said with a small laugh "Hey look there's a green bubble around them!"
Eden frowned "Not funny"
"Yeah bad joke" Lux said "Although I wouldn't put it past them to have Zoltan tech up their... sleeves?"

We have a teleporter ? For cargo ? Is it suitable for lifeform teleport ? I bet yes
Nicolas shouted in the coms :
"Then ill raid the ennemy ship and rig the engine room , temporarily disabeling that ship ! Gimme your best men !"
He rushed in the secured cargo aera and picked up a mining bomb ; it was massively oversized for its use , but you can't shoot too much you ennemy
That will do the job!

Of course given the Slug ship being a bit distracted trying to attack Eden, Bren took the moment to aim his Rail gun right for their vital engines
"Say good night you slug bastards" he said aiming and firing, sniping their engines and causing a nasty haul breach, however any experienced person who knows slugs (And remember he was former slave of a slug) knows that breaches will only slow em down, not cripple em.
But slowing is all he needed as he looked to find their weapons
"Kira hows the rail's power, think we can let out one more shot?" he asked firing his crystals at them as he worked to dodge more attacks in the nebula

The Pelican's always had a cargo teleporter for boarding operations. It has the other equipment for moving cargo because the teleporter takes a while to recharge after each use but it does help save time. Eden's just figured that it could be used to send her crew to other ships for feeding time
"Bren, I'm about to board that ship you're firing at. Warn us before you start shooting at where we might be" Eden said over the comms before focusing her attention to Nicholas' crazy plan "I'm already sending my crew there now. Bren's already disabled the engines for us. The enemy ship can't attack us if we kill everyone onboard"

Somehow Bren got the message, "Holy shit I didn't realize that" he called out, hoping they heard, he head his fire now and focused on dodging

"Let's get this over with, " said Nicholas, going for the teleporter with a few cannibals. "Don't bring back slug to eat, its fucking disgusting, " he said to one of Eden men.
BZZZAAP!
The small crew teleported right into the middle of the weapon rooms.
"Let's kill these and then follow me", said Nicholas while preparing his weapon for combat. "This is gonna get ugly..."
A few moments later, the room was filled with gummy stuff. "Now follow me"
He rushed in the back of the ship, encountering no one.
He picked a specific panel in the wall, almost knowing by heart the ship map.
Correction en anglais : orthographe et grammaire anglais
The trapdoor revealed the main power core, and infused plasma was lighting the place with a greenish color, but the rest of the room was too dark.
A dark where was hiding a slug, ready making his entry "You two, watch the door. I'm setting up that bomb PEW!
The hidden slug shot at Nicholas - " Oh shit my arm! Get him!"
The slug shouted that could be translated into "Die scummy human!"
His arm was badly touch - he couldn't move it properly.
While the other two were finishing off that sneaky slug, he thought to himself: Shit! It's going to be hard to deploy the bomb with only one arm !"
"Eden ! How much time until we can jump back ?"
He heard some slug rubbish behind him and ordered his two allies to watch the door. The young boy had some problem setting up the bomb with one arm , but he managed it . Somehow .

Kira responded, "I have no idea, I'm just here helping to power the system, ask Gorlag about the weapons." Gorlag spoke up on the comms, "We've got power for one more ssshot of the railgun, then it overheatss."
