===Ok people here it is, enjoy, and actually post please=== Art stormed into Rogue's office onboard the ISD II Nemesis where Nazgul was now stationed.  He was in his typical smuggler style clothing with a hip blaster belt, Rogue couldnt recall the last time Art was actually in his uniform. "Rogue, we need to talk about our last mission and the future of this squad." "Um, ok, what did you have in mind?  I thought our mission to Nar Shadda during the campaign against the pirates went great." "Only cause I was there to help."  Art replied.  After the Nar Shadda mission his arrogance and hot shot nature had come back in storm to him.  "Without me you would have gotten no where, I sacrificed a lot for this squad, including the life of my brother and the XO on his ship.  Now lets talk how we can prevent crap like that having to happen.  We need to revamp Nazgul." "What do you have in mind?" "Vigorous combat training to start in 10minutes.  I have downloaded three missions into the simulators and the birds are hot." "Very well I will get Nazgul together and in the training room.  Anything else?" "Only that this squad has sucked for too long." "Thanks for your personal imput but constructive imput would be helpful." "Ok, this squad REALLY sucks.  Anyway im off to my sim.  See you there.  MAybe the squad may actually show."  Art said hot headedly as he stormed out of the office and slammed the door. ===25 Minutes Later=== The rest of Nazgul squad drags into the simulator room.  Art watches impatiently as they move to their fighters. "Where the hell were you guys?" "Sleeping fool, its 05:00." replied Andhaz "I need sleep you grunt."  Stated Shino as she sat down beside her cockpit. "Ok sorry, this mission will only take 20 minutes." "Hurray, then back to my nice beauty nap."  Replied Shino as she boarded her simulator. ===someone start the mission, if not ill start it later===

"Alright men."  Arturus began as the squad members assembled around.  "The mission is this.  ISD II Nemesis will arrive outside the Tralus sector here.  There Nazgul squadron, the only squadron on board, will launch and begin surveilence.  It is rumored that a large New Republic supply fleet is to rendezous somewhere in this area.  You will split into pairs and wait for it to arrive.  When it does, radio it in and rendezous back at the Nemesis so the squadron can reform and make their assault.  The objective is to destroy all of the frieghters and transports carrying equipment essential to the New Republic.  Any questions so far?"  Asked Arturus as he glanced around the room.  not to his surprise, no one asked anything. "What about fighter defenses and orbital defenses?"  Growled Bear in disgust as he saw no one seemed to be interrested. "I was just going to give the tactical overlay Bear." "BEAR?  ITS SIR MR. ARTURUS!"  Yelled Bear. "Yes sir!"  responded Art sacastically as he through a limp salute and recrossed his arms. "I want to see you in my office after the mission, we will discuss your attitude towards your superiors."  Bear stated as he motionned Art to continue. Art shrugged and continued his briefing.  "The planet is under New Republic control so you can expect to be harrassed by X-Wings and perhaps a few Y-Wings.  Orbital defenses include several gun platforms and several ground based missile launchers.  In addition, expect a large assortment of medium-intermidiate class Capital Ships.  Our probes across the galaxy indicate that the convoy is guarded by at least 2 RSDs and several Corvettes.  As well there are 2 Nebula-B Frigates and one Modified Frigate.  These ships are believed to carry a new form of A-wing so you will have to be very careful when you engage." "You expect this to actually be pulled off?"  Asked Bear. "Yes Bear, if the squad begins to consider great difficulty, the Modified Corvette Crystal Edge, 1 squadron of TIE Interceptors, and two heavily modified Imperial shuttles are available as reinforcements.  They are incidentally the ships I captured on the Nar Shadda mission." "Mr. Arturus, shut the hell up about your pathetic achievements and just give the damned briefing."  Growled Bear. "Your voice suits your name Bear.  Anyother questions before I conclude?"  Arturus glanced around again and saw that no one had a question. "Very well, the mission will begin in 5 minutes, your crafts are armed with concussion missiles for more firepower and 1 fuel tank.  I advise you to use your fuel cautiously and keep system use to a minimum.  If necessary, you may be able to dock with the Nemesis to rearm and fuel but if the Nemesis is attacked, dont expect them to risk their necks.  The mission goals in priority terms are as followed. 1.  Seek out and idenfity the New Republic supply convoy 2. Destroy all cargo containing vessels 3.  Ensure the Nemesis survives and is able to leave when 1 and 2 are compelted 4. Destroy all possible defense 5. Ensure that all reinforcement vessels survive The mission begins in 10 minutes, arm your fighters, and good luck."  Art concluded as he took fo his hip blaster belt and left the briefing room.

Rogue had slipped away from the simulators and returned to his office. He went to his desk, activated his computer and quickly composed a letter on the computer. After saving the file in his personal protected files, he sent it on its way and logged off.  Rogue then went and pulled out a duffel bag from the office's closet. Quickly and quietly he filled it with all of his personal things that were in the office. Then he left the office, locked the door and headed to his quarters. He dropped the bag in his quarters then headed back to the simulators. Rogue quietly slipped back into the section where Nazgul had been and found the rest of the squadron, which consisted of Arturus, Gravin, CJ, andhaz, Bear and some flight cadet that Bear had brought along, were still going over all the stuff that had to be covered before they flew this sim flight. Rogue checked his chrono (watch) on his wrist and found that he had been gone for only about ten minutes. Hopefully no one had noticed his was gone for that period of time. Gravin turned to ask Rogue something about the mission, but instead asked Rogue in a low voice, where had he taken off to? Rogue replied "dont worry about it, you'll find out and understand in a couple of days." Gravin nodded and the two of them went back to work. ((this is just a story that gives some background about my resigning as CO, thats all. Hopefully it will also get the story back moving.))

Gravin walks into the simulator and begins to play with some buttons. "What to do" He says to himself. In a moment after that a voice comes in out of no where. "Hey Gravin, whats up?" Rogue says. "Long time no see Commander" Gravin says. "Im no longer your Commander Gravin" replies Rogue. "oh, i have been on a long leave to relax and figure out what  I want to do" Gravin walks over to the Simulator as he says that. Rogue replies "You were a good Commander, just have to lose the tempor and you would be better." (I'll write some more later)
