~~~Hammer~~~

The Hammer began its assault on the first Warden The Riddled Night that came within its range.  The shields on The Riddled Night were brought down to 85% power after the first volley. They strengthened the power of their shields to make up for their lack of weapons.  The Hammers shields dropped down to 84% after the second volley from the two Wardens.

The Hammer fired a second volley at The Riddled Night that dropped it down another 15%.  The third assault from the pair jostled the Hammer, and knocks a few crew members down.  “Damage report.” Arthur ordered.

“The shields are still holding and are currently at 76%.”  Matker responded.

“Then will someone tell me why it felt like they landed a hit on my hull!” Arthur ordered.

“The Glass Rose fired a missile and by some miracle we made contact with it in our last volley.” Elither replied.  “The missile exploded so close to us that the shockwave was felt through our ship.”

~~~TIE Avengers Besh Flight (Bonegnasher Squad)~~~

“Bonegnasher Besh Flight report in.”  Flight Leader Leith ordered.

“Besh Two ready to roll.”  Cain replied.

“Besh Three locked and loaded sir.” Nolath reported in.

“Besh Four is here as well.”  Dread responded.

“Move out and pick your targets.  Rip through this squad of Z-95s and focus on those Bulk Freighters.” Leith told his crew.

Besh flight broke off and engaged the squad of Z-95s.  Besh Two rolled out and punched his TIE to full speed.  He began to engage the first Z-95 that came within his range.  The Z-95 bobbed and weaved trying to prevent getting shot down.  Everything the pilot tried was quickly countered by Cain.

Cain TIE made a lock and just as he was about to fire one of the Z-95s friends fired a missile causing the TIE to jerk and break the lock.  Cain fired a steady burst and removes the shields in a matter of seconds.  Cain got a second lock and fired before he could lose it again.

~~~Hammer a few minutes later~~~

Arthur watched the shields on The Riddle Night give out and ordered Harth to fire two missiles.  The missiles sped past and slammed into the portside of the hull and blasted a large creator in the ship almost ripping it in half.

“Give me a static update on the battle.” Arthur ordered.

“We are down to 44% on our shields minor hull breaches in the cargo hold, and starboard crew quarters and Taraearr was rendered unconscious when he was thrown back from repairing the breaches.  The Pirates are down to the last Warden and seven no wait six Z-95s and the Bulk Freighters still appear to be nonfunctional.” Matker reported.

“What is the static on the Avengers, Jaeron?”  Arthur asked.

“Besh Lead and Three are sitting at 60% on their shields, and Besh Two lost power to his 4 L-s9.3 Laser Cannons, and is trying to restore power.  Besh Four has the worst luck she just asked for backup to restore power her entire ship.”  Jaeron responded.

“Sir the Glass Rose is moving away from us and heading for the Bulks and I am reading them both powering back up and getting ready to make a jump.”  Elither quickly stated.

“We need to stop them from leaving.”
