OOC:

Ok, first some directions. Anyone is allowed to post on this story, but there can only be a maximum of 24 personal characters, and then the rest of them are NPCs. Please follow the storyline, nothing really crazy, as I have a timeline I'm following. Finally, I will place directions for those who wish to post at the bottom of each of my posts, they may be either direct instructions on an objective for a particular character, or general instructions.

Looking around the bridge of his ship, Lieutenant Commander Poronus Danto, commanding officer of the Imperial CR-90 Vandal, is very pleased with what he sees. Turning to the sensor officer, Danto speaks,

“Mr. Niako, what is the status of the convoy?”

looking up from his readouts momentarily, the PO2 reports,

“at this point in time there is no change in the status of the transports Donatuu, Brinkston, ShadowHawk, and Grinto, the Crixus is also holding its escort position on the other side of the transports.”

acknowledging the report with a nod, Danto turns to his Navigator and asks for an update on their location. The navigator responds,

“If we continue at current speed Commander, we should be at the next jump point in approximately four minutes.”

nodding also to this officer's report, Danto turns toward the forward viewport and looks out at the asteroid field they are carefully making their way through to reach the jump point on the other side of the field.

The six ships had been assigned an important mission. They were on their way to resupply a small base on the planet Yrkansto which had recently been attacked by a pirate force, and which needed replacement parts, weapons, and other equipment carried by the three transports.

The Vandal and Crixus, a Corvette and Escort Frigate, had been assigned to escort the lightly armed transports to the planet, they were needed because the area was full of pirate activity still, and there was a chance that they might be either attacked at the planet, or ambushed somewhere on the way there.

Part of the reason for the many smaller jumps was to decrease the chances that the convoy would be ambushed before they reached the planet.

The Crixus provided a small amount of fighter support through a group of fighter pilots who were on board. The force was completely volunteer, and they were flying their personal craft rather than the standard TIE fighters they would otherwise have been flying.

OOC:

Ok, instructions:
Hunter ---> You have the ShadowHawk, and any personal fighter you wish.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS ---> If you have a fighter, you are allowed to have it be on board the Escort Frigate, however there are only 24 slots, and you will have to obey my placement of you within those slots, there are two squadrons, and until the fighters are ordered to launch you must remain on board the frigate, however you are free to do whatever you want while on board.

Unless I give you a position higher than your normal one within a squadron, do not assume that you have anymore status than normal, because this is an all-volunteer mission, I will place you according to the quality of your first post. (In my Opinion)

(STUB POST: Who cares?)

"Casting off, Devonshire. Jump system." Bacredi said to the ship he owned, the Devonshire, a command ship that Bacredi used for his own purposes flew off into hyperspace. They were most likely headed to the Epsilon System. The Somorset went into hyperspace as well, again, most likely to the Somorsetshire System. And last, the Stealth Frigate Do You Feel Lucky? which was a CR-90 flew off into hyperspace, most likely towards Dantooine. Bacredi flew his NTB-630 naval bomber, his R5 droid (R5-P8) beeped at him from the astromech socket. Flying towards the Nebulon-B frigate, he moved into the hangar bay.

Getting out, he began to walk towards the crew. He saluted, he seemed to have been given the "Black Aces Executive Officer" position. He moved towards Slasher, he nodded and sat down and began to eat.

He opened up his computer terminal and began to type up the mission briefing... or just look at it. He snickered at some of the push overs that volunteered for such thing.
