(OOC:Srry for putting this a bit late i've been doing alot of stuff recently in RL. hopefully i can get back to good activity before this is all over.) The shot of good old Corellian ale slithered down LoneWolf’s throat. He looked lazily around the room trying to see what everyone was doing. he finished his victory glass then decided to get some rest before the next, and final mission. So far he didn’t like the way it was seeming, the scores hadn’t been updated and the end of the competition was almost done. It was a time of festival, almost, seeing pilots from all around retell what had happened earlier that day. LoneWolf chuckled then brought a data pad up to study briefly the next mission. "Gunboats" he mused, the bomber type crafts were one of his favorites. "Letsee ‘ere we got a space station facility taken under control by activist. We’re to take out the heavy artillery lethally, and escort the troop shuttles in the docking bay. Almost sounds like something’s missing…" he clicked through the mission stats but he found nothing being untold, he then considered how people would get on the station. "There might be opposing crafts then." He clicked a few buttons, and left a message about it on the Aegis comnet. "Better enjoy the night." LoneWolf took a mug of coffee then went back to the booth Aegis usually occupied with the rest of the conjugating pilots.

  Darkhawk wandered over to the booth where Lonewolf was sitting and slide in across the table from the squadron commander. "What's up, boss?" The Commodore was smiling; he seemed to be in high spirits.   "I was just looking over the briefing for our last mission," Lonewolf answered after taking a sip from his mug of coffee.   "Ah. You know, you work too much, chief. You should take a break. Go conjugate with Liquid or something." Darkhawk busted out laughing.   "What?"   "Err ... nothing. Nothing at all." Darkhawk took a drink from the glass of water he held in his right hand. "I just got finished beating the boy over the head with a pool stick."   Lonewolf's eyebrows arched up. "Why?"   "He tried to hit me in the gnads with the 8 ball. Luckily, he's so drunk that he didn't really even come close. I was quick to defend myself, of course."   The lieutenant grinned. "I hope you didn't hurt him too badly."   "Nah, he'll be fine - he's a tough one. Shouldn't be any problem for him to hit the simulators with us tomorrow for the last mission."   "All right then." Lonewolf, paused, looking down into his coffee. "Darkhawk, do you think we can win this thing?"   The older pilot leaned foward, his face suddenly darkening, his emotions changing. The laughter in his eyes had transformed into contemplation. "Hmmmm. That's a tough question to answer, sir."   "Try me."   "Well ... I believe that we can win. That is, we have the ability, potential, etcetera. The only problem is, how do we harness that? At the rate we're going right now, there is little doubt in my mind that Viper will win."   "Urgh. You sound like Rogue. Still, you all have a point. We have to think of something to get these guys going." Darkhawk nodded, but only leaned back and took another drink; he could offer not suggestion.

After the mission, a quite successful one, I decided to hit the refresher. It was refreshing after a long hard battle.I decided to then go to the lounge and get some food, then get some rest. I went to the lounge and ordered a nice, hearty meal. It quickly filled me up and I then I proceeded to my quarters for some r & r. I shut the door and went into a deep sleep. The last mission had worn me out. I awoke the next morning refreshed, and lively. I put on my jumpsuit and headed to the lounge for some breakfast. After the meal, I went to the Aegis ready room, but no one was there. Our orders were posted on the board so I checked them. The mission didn't begin until 1000, so I decided to get some exercise. All these missions had taken up my time and I wasn't doing my daily routines. I ran across the Atrus, my usual route, ending up at the gym. I checked my watch and still had time, so I did a little weight training. I wasn't able to lift as much as I used to be able to do. It felt odd being in a gym. I finished up my exercises and then went to my quarters to take another shower. Next it would be off to the sims to meet the squadron there.

LoneWolf walked a bit uncomfortably into the simulation room. He had his blaster belted, and armed steady at his side. He played with it as he walked into the room with a bunch of half drowsy pilots, several of whom were gone for personal reasons. LoneWolf realized that though they were going at the target hard, things would not end they way he would like. LoneWolf brought up his blaster, and took several shots at the ceiling. "Wake up you lazy bums!" he took another three shots then yelled again, "Get your stinking arses in the sims! If we’re even gonna think about loosing this fight then I want to go down trying." LoneWolf fingered the clip free from the blaster then let the weapon slip down to the floor making a "Thump". He gazed at the room and saw several pilots reaching for their own blasters or lightsabers. Though he knew Riel would talk to him about his small outburst he didn’t care, right now he had to give it everything he had, every last bit of fighting strength. It was not really the fear of loosing, but the fear of giving up that haunted his mind. He was the first one in the sim, and slowly began remembering his first mission in aegis. It was very different from now, DH was flight two leader, sk8guy his XO in that flight. He had asked permission to go along with the other flight and was granted it by riel. They had to scan an asteroid field for intruders, pirates was what he found. His first kill in the navy was a pirate Z-95. "Lets get these Schmucks!" LoneWolf hollered over the comm, to his assembling squadron. The sim began to load up the Gunboat cockpit, and other systems, "lets see if we can hold our title?"

  Kain leapt up out of bed at the sound of knocking at his door. Have I overslept? he wondered. He ran over to the door to his room and opened it.   There in the hallway stood the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. She had long, brown hair, deep blue eyes, and the most fabulous body ever. Kain's jaw dropped and he was left speechless. As soon as she saw him she smiled.     "Hello," she said in a luscious voice that made his heart melt. Then she walked right up to him and kissed him.   Kain didn't no what to do, so he simply enjoyd the kiss, which lasted at least a minute. When she finally broke away he was able to stammer, "Hi." She winked. "Uh, who are you? What are you doing here?" he questioned. Oh, real smooth, he thought.   "I'm here to thank you," she said, laughing. Then she pushed him back into his room, closing the door behind them. She pushed him down onto the bed and -   - Kain leapt up out of bed at the sound of knocking at his door. What's going on? He looked around. Oh. It was only a dream, he realized, disappointed. He put on his shirt and went to answer the door.   There in the hallway stood a seven foot tall black and tan Wookie. The creature bared its fangs at Kain but then smiled.     "Hello," he said in a gruff voice. Kain was surprised - Wookies cannot speak Basic.   "Uh, hi. Who are you?" he asked.   "My name is Real Furry," the alien replied.   "Huh? Riel Fury?"   "No ... Real Furry."   "Oh," Kain said. "What do you want?"   The Wookie's black eyes lit up and it stepped toward Kain. "To make sweet loving to you!" he screamed.   Kain had no time to react. In a matter of seconds the hairy beast had pushed him back into his room, locking the doors behind them. Real Furry had him in a tight grip and there was nothing for Kain to do but watch in horror as the Wookie ripped off his pants and -   - Kain leapt up out of bed at the sound of knocking at his door. It took him a second to realize he was screaming, and then a few more seconds to stop. Taking a quick glance around the room, he pulled his blaster rifle out from under his bed and walked to the door.   "Who the hell is it?" he yelled.   A voice answered back from behind the door. "It's Japheth, man. What the hell's going on in there? Were you screaming?"   Kain's cheeks reddened; he tossed the gun aside. "Uh, no, sir."   "Hmmm. Well, get your sorry butt down to the simulators. Aegis began their mission five minutes ago."   Kain cursed. I knew I overslept! "All right, sir, I'll be right there." Japheth muttered something and walked off as Kain raced to get dressed.

I entered my sim and loaded up the launch program. It felt weird being in an Assualt Gunboat, but at least it as better than a TIE fighter. I took a deep breath as the bright lights of hyperspace surrounded my cockpit. Then the stars turned to pinpricks and the simulation began. "Form up Lusthawks. Take down that station pronto; the shuttles will be in-system in a couple of minutes." Lonewolf shouted over the comm. I brought my shields up and powered up my lasers, then realized how far out I was. I then switched to missiles, single fire and toggled through the targets with the Force. I picked out a nice turbolaser and fired a missile, sending the deadly streak of energy towards the focus of my power. The result was a gaint explosion, searing the turolaser off the hull. I then mentally targeted another gun emplacement and let my missile fly. Nice shooting. You're beginning to grow stronger in the Force. I heard Darkhawk's voice in my mind. I then focused my thoughts towards him, letting him hear my voice deep inside his mind, Thank you my Master. I have been practicing. I smiled as I witnessed another explosion along the hull of the station.

  Darkhawk flexed his hand, getting a better feel of the flight yoke. Being in an Assault Gunboat brought back memories of his olden days, flying for the Galactic Empire. His first day in Tau Squadron, piloting Assault Gunboats, had been one of his best missions ever. He could still remember how he and his wingman, Doomsday, had tackled an entire flight of X-Wings and come away nearly untouched. It was the first fighter he had ever flown that had shields OR ion cannons; the only two superior Imperial craft in his mind were the TIE Defender and the Missile Boat. Not even a TIE Advanced or TIE Phantom could stand up to someone in an Assault Gunboat who knew what he was doing. Like me, he thought, smiling.   "All right, One Flight, let's rock and roll," Darkhawk said, pushing his throttle to full. He roared past Lonewolf and Zakath, right into the fray. Turbolaser blasts from the enemy station were zipping all around him, but even without the Force he was quick enough and skilled enough to juke in and out between them with ease. Anticipating where the gunners would fire was all too easy after years of doing this kind of thing.   If only I was as good as I used to be, he wished. Then I would really show these Lusthawks a thing or two. Damn Bnasis and his memory wipe. Filled with anger at his unfortunate situation, Darkhawk switched his firing controls to full guns and began to plug away at the station with lasers and ion cannons at the same time.   "DH, watch that cover fire!" Lonewolf yelled.   "Yeah, you're way too close," Rogue added. "Pull up, man."   With a grunt Darkhawk shut his communicator off. He didn't feel right doing it, but he didn't want to listen to the others right now, either. What he wanted to do was get lost in the flow of battle. Now, with no distractions, he began to become one with his "ship". The Assault Gunboat flowed effortlessly across the surface of the station as its pilot picked off gun turret after gun turret with the grace of a stunt pilot in an A-Wing. Yeah, it's just like old times.

The station's guns were slowly diminishing. The onslaught by Aegis proved to be successful. Half the guns were down, but a new threat was now present; the station had launched its fighters. Two squadrons of Y-wings swarmed the space between Aegis and the station. In addition the escort shuttles had arrived in system. Now Aegis had to protect the shuttles and disable the station. I looked around at the situation then commed Lonewolf. "Hey Lonewolf, the calvary is here. We're gonna get busy now." "Right, I noticed." he responded. Then he switched his frequencies to the entire squadron. "OK Aegis here's the plan. Three flight, you break off the station and escort the shuttles; that means handle what fighters come near you. Two flight you're on the station, and don't worry about the fighters, One flight will handle them." "Right. Sounds good boss." I replied and took point of my flight towards the station. It was almost down, 50% shields left and 1/3 of its weapons were gone. I just hoped it didn't call for reinforcements or have more fighters that it hadn't launched yet. I switched to ions and began to blast away at the giant station. I watched as the shields dropped to 45%. Zakath followed  right after my run, taking the shields down to 39%. "Good job Zakath." I congratulated him. And swung back around in line to wait for my next run. By the time it was my turn again, I had picked up a Y-wing on my tail. I smiled as I  headed straight for a turbolaser. I linked all my guns and strafed the station, juking constantly avoiding the turbolaser's fire. The Y-wing's wild shots missed me due to my random juking, but splashed against the stations shields. I smiled as the green pilot kept up his onslaught, helping our cause.   ----------------------- EFL/1LT Michael "sk8guy" Rose/Aegis 5/mSSD Artus/DEF/VEN/VE      (=A=)(=MA=)(=JCPA=)(=SCPA=)(=UCPA=)[-BRC-][-VC|E-] DJK sk8guy/Eagle1-7/VEDJ/m/SSD Atrus      "Unleash the power of the Dragon!" - Michael "sk8guy" Rose

  Darkhawk spun his Assault Gunboat around, leaving the station behind and heading toward the Y-Wings. The two starfighters were a pretty good match in a dogfight; the Gunboat had an edge on manueverability while the Rebel fighter had better shields and armor. This ought to be fun, he thought to himself.   sk8guy had been quick to inform him that he was no longer in One Flight. Apparently the Aegis roster had been switched up a little - Darkhawk was in Two Flight now. He shook his head and smiled. sk8guy and I have switched places.   "All right, boys, this is Aegis Six, coming in hot," he yelled as he launched a pair of missiles out at an enemy fighter. The Rebel bomber's shields collapsed, but it was not destroyed. Liquid flew by and finished the bogey off.   "Nice shot, Nine," sk8guy commented.   "Thanks for the assist, DH," Liquid said.   "Thanks for stealing my kill," the Commodore replied. Darkhawk looked around his status screen and frowned. "Has anyone seen Kain?" he asked.   Lonewolf answered, "I sent Japheth to go get him. I think he overslept."   "Typical Kain. sk8guy, where do you want me to go?"   "I'm with Zakath for now," the flight leader answered. "Head on over and watch PJ's back."   "Commodore y Commodore, eh? Sounds good to me."   "This is gonna be like shooting monkey in a barrel," PJ announced, laughing.     "Uh ... right. Something like that."

The lines of fire criss-crossed madly along space, LoneWolf made the more sluggish fighter dance around as much as he could. Each time he put the enemy Y-Wing in his crosshairs sending a couple of quick aimed linked shots. Dispite the ion’s inability to destroy a craft, they could disable and burn the shields more effectively. Some of the enemy activist didn’t know that, only firing lasers. He took another couple of linked shots, sending the Y in a sudden halt, as it’s system’s fried to zero. "As good as a kill for now." LoneWolf continued giving cover fire, sensing he needed to pull someone in flight two into his own, in the near further. He would dance with the roster until he felt like all worked well. Crimson bolts burned his canopy as a Y-Wing got on his top six. LoneWolf pulled up his nose, and was able to barely turn around and shoot at the other canopy before more shots were traded. The Y-Wing was destroyed after a fifth shot. Quickly pulling his throttle control back, the speed built up once again. He dove back around to picket off a fighter off of one of flight two. He switched to torps hoping to get some splash damage on the station it was near. The steady red glow came after a few seconds of dancing the Y in his scopes. Twin torpedoes lanced out and quickly met the occupied target who forgot about the lock. His guts smeared across one of the turrets actually taking it off. "Wow!" LoneWolf mused at the lucky shot Sk8guy gave a whistle and DH a steady, "Good shot Aegis leader!" LoneWolf quickly replaced his grin with clenched teeth as he tried to take another tail off his six.

  Darkhawk rolled right to evade laser fire from an enemy Y-Wing; red laser bolts shot through the air where he had just been. Whew. Another close call.   Pulling up sharply, he pushed his craft's maneuvering abilities beyond their limit and wound up right behind his would-be attacker. He unloaded ten rounds of ion cannon fire into the Y-Wing - the Rebel fighter-bomber's electrical systems shut down and it stopped dead in space.   "How many tangos do we have left out here, Five?" Darkhawk asked.   "Seven Y-Wings remaining," sk8guy answered. "You take the leader and I'll get his wingman, okay?"   "Roger, Five."   "Make sure you leave me some, guys!" a familiar voice answered. Darkhawk checked his radar and saw that Kain Rennok had finally joined the battle, coming up fast in his TIE Avenger.   "Nice of you to join us, Three," Lonewolf remarked as he juked a Y-Wing that had gotten in behind him. "Get this bogey off my tail, Kain, would you?"   "No problem," the newcomer replied. Seconds later he launched a pair of torpedos at the attacking fighter. The Rebel pulled up to get out of their way, leaving Lonewolf scotch free to make an attack run on the enemy's wingmate.   ----------------------- ADJ:NTO/EFM/COM Darkhawk/Aegis 2-2 /Phoenix Wing/mSSD Atrus/DEF/VEN/VE/(=A=)(=SA=)(=JCPA=)(=SCPA=)(=FCO=)[LoC][BRC][VC:Ebony][KC] DLS/CL/SG Darkhawk/Eagle 2-1/mSSD Atrus/VEDJ/VE/[CR]

Liquid jived to the right, narrowly avoiding the enemy fire that was lighting up his gunboat. "Damned Y-Wings," he thought, stretching out with his mind, hoping to find less than he had anticipated. He flared to the right, almost slamming into Darkhawk, but narrowly missing the superior pilot. "Stay outta my way, rookie!" Darkhawk shouted, glad that Liquid couldn't be any slower. "Whatever, pilot," Liquid commented, happy that he couldn't take orders from Darkhawk anymore. He pulled hard on his controls, getting lost in the moment as a Y-wing picked up his tail. The rebel pilot's green beams of pain were eating away at his shields, tormenting him with the lack of skill he had with this ship. "I'll show you a thing or two," Liquid thought, feeling the anger and opening up to the Dark Side of the Force. He pushed his controls to the right, dropped a flare, and watched the Y-wing collide with it, dropping it's shields to 10% and making it feel a little ancy about attacking an obviously superior pilot. He pulled up hard, making sure he kept track of the enemy, and switched to lasers, making sure to have them linked to he could do maximum damage with minimal shots.

I made another run on the station. The shields were now down, but the systems were still operational, plus the station still had teeth. I went in, ions blazing. The systems were now down to 2/3 and sirens began to blare across the station. Escape pods and shuttles began to pour out the station. i counted at least 15 shuttles and more than two dozen escape pods. "What about the escapees Lonewolf?" I asked Lonewolf. "We'll try and get as many as possible, but focus on the station." he replied. Soon after three of  the shuttles were sitting dead in space. Just as I was about to go for the kill on the station, the systems dropped down to nothing, it was dead. I immediately changed me weapons to missiles and targetted a nearby Y-wing. i got a good lock and fired. The small craft didn't even have time to react. The target in my sights was a shuttle. i throttled up and homed in th esluggish craft. The shuttles were worker class and had no weapons, only tractor beams. i smiled as i realized how easy a kill this would be. I linked my fire and began to eat away at the shield. Once they were down to 50%, I switched to ions and finished them. I then had to break off and com in at another angle to diable it. I fired three times and the shuttle stopped, dead in space.

(OOC: this is the last mission, if we get too far dont be afraid to fail and restart it. or we could just write alot of pre celebration.) LoneWolf took out another Escape pod, he knew they were only trying to scatter their sensors. He focused on a Y-wing which his sensors had not yet picked up. he continued clicking furiously on his lock on display, trying to get a lock, too late. The Y noticed the unlocked tail and turned around for a fight. LoneWolf stopped switching targets and took it on partially blind. His blasts came out not too sure where they were landing. He got two hits on the side engine then quickly hit the laser cannons head on, as they were about to fire. LoneWolf quickly realized he was coming in too fast, he barely dodged the partially disabled craft. He then noticed four shots hit and penetrate the craft. "you always have to make an entrance!" LoneWolf spate as Kain took his wing, in a Tie advanced, "You know how I feel about that, besides you need a good fighter to clean out the opposition." "Yeah yeah, look out for that turbo laser fire!" Kain reflexively dodged a shot from a turret. "Thanx one!" LoneWolf realized something was off, "get those shuttles here fast! I think they may arm the self destruct!" "Why’s that One?" DarkHawk asked, LoneWolf replied, "Their loosing the fight, and we haven’t destroyed the facility, better disable it fast!" With his words said , most of aegis began to run ion runs, leaving flight two to clean up the fighters, and escort. If they didn’t disable it then the troops would either have to rush to do it or leave and let it happen.

I looked on to a Y-wing, but it went evasive. I smiled as it tried to evade me and then pounded it with lasers. IT cut its engine and the craft stopped, leaving me to fly right past it. I looked behind me and heard the locked tone of a missile. I cut to the right sharply, followed by a left and then went into an inverted dive; too late, the missile was alive inspace and homing in on me. Sithspawn I thought as I barely avoided the first run at me. I had to turn and try and get it in front of me. I pulled my craft around just in time to see green laser fire hit the missile and detonate it. A TIE Advanced flew through the fireball and spat more green laser fire behind me. "Sk8, your tail is gone and you're clear." Kain commed me as he flew past my gunboat. "Thanks Kain. I appreciate it." I said back as I thought of something. I checked the station's status, disabled. I then went after a group of shuttles, but Kain beat me to it. Blast him, he was taking a lot of kills this mission. Having that happen, I homed in on another group of shuttles. I switched to missiles and got a lock and let two missiles fly. They homed in on their targets and hit them directly, creating a giant explosion. Now it was time to take prisoners. I switched to ions and starting strafing the shuttles, disabling them as I went. After I completed the run, I disable 4 shuttles, not bad.   ----------------------- EFL/1LT Michael "sk8guy" Rose/Aegis 5/mSSD Artus/DEF/VEN/VE      (=A=)(=MA=)(=JCPA=)(=SCPA=)(=UCPA=)[-BRC-][-VC|E-] DJK sk8guy/Eagle1-7/VEDJ/m/SSD Atrus      "Unleash the power of the Dragon!" - Michael "sk8guy" Rose

  Darkhawk took a look around the space battle and relaxed. Everything was going a-ok. The last of the enemy escape pods had either escaped, been disabled, or had been shot down; all of the Y-Wings were space dust. Soon Omega Group's Stormtrooper transports would arrive from the Atrus to board the station and take it over.   "Looks like clear sailing from here," sk8guy announced.   "Yeah, I was just thinking the same thing," Lonewolf replied. "Still, we should stay on patrol."   "Why?" Liquid asked. He sounded anxious to get out of the sims and back to the lounge to get wasted again.   "Because Riel might have thrown in a little surprise for us," Darkhawk answered. "I like the way things are looking right now, but you never know what can happen. We should at least escort Omega to the station."   "Darkhawk's right," said Lonewolf. "Two Flights, stay on patrol around the station. One and Three Flights will head out to the hyperspace buoy to wait for our transports."   "Roger that," sk8guy and Liquid responded at the same time.   "I hope you're wrong, Six," PJ said as the other two flights broke off. "I'm getting a little tired of all of this dogfighting."   "Awwww, you're just rusty, old man," Darkhawk chided. "I could do this for days upon days with no end in sight."   "That's because you're a loony bastard," the Commodore retorted.

Liquid stared at disbelief at his status indicators, several ships had left hyper space from several clicks away. Liquid pushed the throttle to full and engaged his ship indicators, targeting the closest of the ships. It was an A-wing. "Awww...shiznit!" Liquid screamed into the com, being greeted by the same from several of his wing-mates, "We got a squadron of A-wings, a squadron of T-wings, and a frickin' corvette, the T-wings seem to be on the defensive, but keep an eye on them for now, don't let anything get by you." Liquid assumed the role of Flight Leader since Rogue wasn't taking action. "Rogue, you take my right wing, Rusty, take my left, we're going for the A-wings, we take out 4, go for more, ok?" The approval was overwhelming as his com blared out affirmatives, and yessir's. He pulled hard to the right, making his ship juke and jive past the green laser blasts that were already being sloppily aimed. This must have been programmed late Liquid thought, realizing that if they had taken time, some of the lasers might have actually stood a chance of hitting his manueverable ship. "Rogue, bogie, 12 o'clock, get 'em," Liquid shouted, pushing forward into his controls and diving into the depths of space. Liquid knew that the ESC wasn't over yet, but, he couldn't wait for the looks he could see in his mind on Warmaker's pilot's faces as they realized the true potential of Aegis. We're gonna win, dammit! he thought, blasting through an A-wing as Rusty took after another.

Rogue finished off the A-wing Liquid had passed to him to kill. Two more laser blasts and the turning fighter blew into cosmic dust particles. Liquid and Rusty had several A-wings wrapped up in twisting turning dogfight while the Corvette was between Rogue and the remaining A-wings.  One flight of A-wings was dead so far out of the squadron of them that had jumped in. The T-wings had hung back obviously waiting to stop any runs on the corvette. “Yeah like they’ll be able to pull that off,” Rogue thought to himself. Seeing that he had a chance to make a break for a sensor run on the corvette, Rogue turned hard and shoved the throttle forward to the stops. His Gunboat then raced toward the oncoming corvette. Switching to missiles, Rogue locked up one of the T-wings, fired one missile, locked on to another and fired a second missile. That would be his hole to make the sensor run. Several seconds later both T-wings exploded from the missile hits, then Rogue’s gunboat flashed through the hole in their formation. Closing to less than half a klick away from the corvette, Rogue sensors scanned the ship for its name, specs and cargo.  After the making a double pass over the corvette, which had horrible gunners in its turrets, their closets shots barely his shields, Rogue tried to make a new hole in the T-wings formation to get back out. He quickly locked onto one of the T-wings trying to get onto his tail and fired a quick, rapid eight shot laser burst. The T-wing and its pilot became one with the cosmos. Rogue cut back toward the corvette and gave it a pass with his ion cannons, then hauled butt back toward Liquid and Rusty’s position. As he closed on his flight leader and other wingman, Rogue looked at the data gathered by his sensors. Unsure what he was seeing, He commed Liquid and transmitted the data to him hoping he could make sense of the data.

My mouth hung open with disbelief as a squadron of A-wings and T-wings exited hyperspace, followed closely by a corvette. I then checked my scanners to see about the boarding parties status. i commed up the ship captain, "How much longer you guys gonna need an escort? Trouble just walked in." The voice that answered me was young, probably early 20s," About another minute, then we'll be rid of you cocky Navy boys." I smiled as I heard that remark then commed back, "You have 30 seconds then we're engaging." The 30 seconds passed rather slowly and in that time, 4 A-wings were gone , as well as 2 T-wings and someone was making a run on the corvette. My HUD suddenly displayed the dat passed on about the corvette. The corvette Ishamel was caring some usual cargo, Bear Claws. "Six, you see this?" I commed over to Darkhawk. "Roger five. We'll have to bcommend Riel on his choice of name and contents. I wonder if he did this himself?" he replied back cheerfully. "I bet not, but anyway, let's go join the fun. We don't Aegis to have aparty without us, right?" I ordered back. "Right." Darkhawk confirmed and the two of s raced towards the fray. I had a couple missiles left, so I targeted the Ishamel and let them all fly out towards the small capital ship. "Eat that Riel!!" i yelled into the cockpit.

Liquid screamed, hollared, and yelled while he dodged this way and that between the rebel blasts of green that were wizzing past his cockpit harmlessly. He pulled hard on the controls, making his manueverable gunboat take a sharp turn to the right, and confusing the computer's pilot, making him fly straight past him for a second, and then he finally turned. POS Liquid thought, muttering obsene comments under his breath about the quality of these simulators. Even Bear's flight school had better ones. It was beginning to be a disgrace. He pushed again on the controls, this time pulling a loop, and let some crimson red fly, nailing the rebel right in the back of the ship, and disentergrating it into just another piece of dust on the horizon. He flew through it, letting his shields absorb the impact of the debri, which totaled to only 1% of damage. meh, I could've done more with a blaster Liquid thought to himself, holding strong on the mental defenses he had put up so no one would be able to read his thoughts. Especially not Riel, who was piloting the corvette that brought all this trouble on. "Oh well, another one bites the dust!" Liquid shouted, hearing the hoo-rahs in the background. He pushed his throttle forward to engage the T-wings that were foolishly following one of his pilots. Dumbasses, Liquid thought as he charged his lasers and set them linked.

Kain checked the status of the mission, so far the Stormtrooper transports had boarded the station. Two out of the three flights of A-Wings had been destroyed.  Only one flight of A-Wings remained, a squadron of T-Wings, and the Corvette Ishamel. "Lonewolf, should we help out Sk8guys's and Liquid's flight out?" Kain asked. "No we should hang back here and guard the transports...I have a feeling that Riel has other things planned for us." Lonewolf replied. Kain watched the battle as flight one patrolled the station.  Liquid's flight was engaging the last flight of A-Wings while Sk8guy's flight flew towards the Corvette and its T-Wing escorts. Suddenly several ships exited hyperspace seven clicks away from the station.  It was two squadron of Z-95 Headhunters and they were closing in on the station. "Oh shi...flight one follow my lead, we're gonna need to take out those Z-95s before they can get to the station and our transports!  They're probably armed with torpedoes so we gotta take them out before they can fire them, so switch to missiles we're have to take'em out fast.? Lonewolf said to the rest of his flight. Kain followed Lonewolf's lead and switched to missiles.  Targeting the nearest fighter Kain throttled up and let his thumb hover over the trigger.  Flight one was closing in on the Z-95s fast, they were almost in range for the missiles.  As Kain heard the beep from the missile lock, he pressed the trigger and the missile came zooming out towards its target.  Quickly he locked onto another fighter and repeated.

LoneWolf Yelled out a war cry in shear excitement, the quickly shot at the shields on one of the Z’s. "Back for some more are ya!" he growled after he flew past the first line. He quickly dumped his shields to let the engines go faster. The Z-95 was a decent fighter but the major set back was the ancient targeting system’s where the pilot had to adjust the firing range of the lasers on his ship. LoneWolf had to make them worry about that. He raced past the line then turned around after he got no more than three clicks of space. Crimson bolts came after him and LoneWolf made the shots work with a load of torps moving in faster head strong. The pilot had to make a decision, who was the deadlier option, the torps, LoneWolf, or kain shooting missiles at them. LoneWolf made himself grin as he rained fire upon a flight of coming Z’s. any good pilot would burst a chaff trigger, or shot the missiles down. Having to do that they would pull a switch and turn around to be killed off, or reposition their laser cannons for close range to shoot down the projectiles, leaving LoneWolf clear for the killing. The flight split off in both scenarios, LoneWolf shot one or the ones turning around to escape, and then quickly fired several well placed shots on the two charging ones, trying to reposition their lasers for medium distances. He disabled one and took out two, a very good start. "Shoot I’ve gotten careless!" several crimson bolts rained past LoneWolf, his shields running dangerously low on it’s draining energy. "Kain I could use a hand!" "Sorry boss I’m in a bust myself, ill do what I can." LoneWolf cursed as his shields dropped a few more points. He quickly began trying to think of a new tactic.

  Darkhawk heard Lonewolf yelling something across the holocomm, but he had no time for that, nor would he have been able to get over and help his squadron commander in time. Two Flight was still very close to the base, having to keep a watch on Omega Group. Some of the T-Wings had been equipped with heavy rockets and were trying to get shots in on the troop transports. PJ and Zakath had had their hands full shooting down warhead while Darkhawk and sk8guy handled the fighters.   "How many T-Wings do you count out here still, Six?" the lieutenant asked.   "I'd say about seven or eight."   "This is slow going. It's hard to catch up to something that fast and quick in these gunboats."   "Maybe for you it is, Five." Just to proved he wasn't boasting, Darkhawk torched a nearby T-Wing with his double laser cannons.   "Yeah, well, you're used to these things. Give me a TIE Advanced anyway."   A new voice suddenly came in over the speaker. "Imperial pilots, this is Captain Benjamin aboard the Corellian Corvette Ishamel. I would advise you to surrender now; we have two more squadrons of fighters incoming and another Corvette. Give up now and perhaps your lives will be spared."   "Hey, Benji boy, this is Commodore Darkhawk," the pilot snapped back.   "Yes, Commodore?"   "You and your friends can kiss my ass! If you think you can stop us now, you're messed up in the head. We've already taken your base and we're coming after you next."   "Woohoo! You tell him, DH!" Zakath cheered.   "We'll see," the Rebel replied.

That said, my ego got the best of me. I recklessly engaged a nearby T-wing and then commed Darkhawk, "Let's hurry up with these blasted T-wings. I wanna take that cocky bastard down." Darkhawk replied, very solemnly, "Right five." As he caught another T-wing in his crosshairs and roasted his aft shields. He then cut his throttle and did a figure eight to stay behind the more maneuverable craft. The sight went green and Darkhawk let four dual bursts of green lasers fly. The T-wing exploded into a brilliant display of colors. "Nice shooting six. Kain, I'm leaving you to handle the heavy rockets by yourself. Zakath engage the T-wings now. Finish them off as quickly as possible." I ordered as the T-wings changed their strategy, coming in  pairs, one launching rockets, the other flying cover. It was an improved strategy, but I saw through it. "Attack the lead T-wing of the groups. They're the ones launching rockets. blast them then turn and engage the tail one' he's providing cover for the first." I said as i shot down the lead T-wing of a group. "Right sk8. I'll handle the rockets and in between, I'll pummel that corvette's shields with torpedoes." Kain yelled as he took down a pair of rockets in his TIE advanced. He then raced through the blast debris and made a run on the corvette.

  Darkhawk grimaced as Kain streaked off toward the enemy Corvette. "You can't handle that thing by yourself, you crazy SOB, Kain!" he shouted.   "Any why not? You just said last mission that you could take out an entire frigate by yourself, in a TIE Advanced. This should be like stealing yub nuts from an Ewok for me against a Corvette in a Gunboat."   Darkhawk wasn't convinced. "I don't know, Six. You aren't as talented as I am."   "Oh, stick it in your ear, Darkhawk. I'll be fine."   "Oh well. Do what you want, Three. Good luck."   "Thanks." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -   Just as Liquid finished off the last of the A-Wings, more enemy blips appeared on his radar. He quickly cycled through the targets on his status screen and then radioed Lonewolf.   "One, we just picked up more enemy ships in the system."   "Well, that's just peachy. How many this time?"   "It's just like the Isamel said. Two more squadrons of fighters - Toscan fighters, it looks like - and another Corellian Corvette.   "Toscans, eh? They're almost as powerful as our Gunboats," Lonewolf replied. "This could get ugly quick."   "Right. The A-Wings are finished; would you like Three Flight to engage those Toscans?"   Lonewolf ran through several scenarios in his head, debating possible outcomes. "Negative, Nine. Come help us finish off all of these Z-95s, we're being overwhelmed. Badly." PJ had gone to cover Lonewolf when Kain ran off, but it was still two against twenty. Both pilots had no shields and had gone 100% evasive. "We can worry about the newcomers later."   "Roger that, Leader. We're on our way."

Kain acquired a solid lock and fired a missile at the Corvette Ishamel then he quickly targeted a heavy rocket that was closest to the staion.  He banked hard right to line up with the rocket, once he had it lined up with the rocket he let out bursts of laser bolts from his cannon destroying the rocket.  Switching back and forth from firing missiles towards the Ishamel to targeting the rockets and destorying them with his laser cannons. Kain had taken the Ishamel's shields down to 18% before he had exhausted all his missiles.  He now concentrated all his energy on destroying the remaining rockets heading towards the station. While cycling all the rockets through the targeting computer he found out that one of the rockets had gotten within 3 clicks of the station.  Quickly he dumped all his remaining shields to the engine, giving the fighter a tremendous boost in speen.  He needed to catch up to that rocket before it collides with the station. Flying towards the rocket at 150 MGLT he frantically tried to line up with the rocket.  Not only was his lasers in range of the rocket, it was in range of the station also.  He only had a few more seconds before the rocket will hit the station...the targeting cursor turned green and Kain fired his laser cannons.  Two laser blasts came out of the cannons, milliseconds later they connected with the rocket and exploded only 50 meters from the station. Kain sighed, cut back his throttle, U-turned his fighter and targeted the nearest oncoming rocket.

LoneWolf hardly realized what Kain had managed to do, "Flights two, and three engage and destroy the remaining Z-95’s. I’ll dump the rest of my torps on that cruiser then I want flight three to go after me. once we all dump our load on that I want flights one and two to give keep the fighters away from flight two as it goes after the cruisers. We’ll have to keep those Tuscan’s real bussy!" LoneWolf soon realized they were only 7 clicks away from the fray. LoneWolf broke away hardly hearing the chatter of "affirmative." He had half his load left and quickly dumped two blind shots, he moved to their sides, and strafed a line of torps saving his last one just in case it was needed later on. The shields buckled and gave and two last torps hit home on the side of the haul. "Eat that Benjamin!" LoneWolf spat out the same as a curse. Several plates of armor shattered off letting a few decks open to space, he zipped past evading the "Thud" of turbolaser fire behind his arse. "Flight three make your run, kain hurry up take those rockets out then get over here for support."

Liquid dodged to the right, avoiding the heavy turbo laser fire that was coming from the enemy corvette. He pushed his throttle to full and dumped half of his shield's power to his engines, hoping it was enough to get outta there before the corvette exploded. He watched the hull readings closely as his flight pounded the Ishamel with their remaining torpedoes. He couldn't believe it, but the hull was down to 1%, and was just dangling there, almost over the edge. "Flight 3, form up, we're doing a laser run on the exposed hull," Liquid said as the members of Aegis's 3rd flight formed behind him, "GO!" Liquid watched his indicators and flew his ship straight, hitting the hull with relentless bursts of green Imperial fire. The hull still dangled at 1%, menacingly he heard a laugh from the distance. Bastard, Liquid thought to himself, realizing they had programmed it to do that. Alrighty then, we'll try something different, Liquid thought as he picked up a tail. Excellent, now, fly close, my minion, you shall do us all a great service this day. "Flight Three, do another laser run, I got a tail, and I have nefarious plans for him. Don't do anything about him, he's my biznatch, he will help us out." Liquid shouted, pulled to the right and watching the enemy crimson burn into the hull. Bet they didn't plan on friendly fire, Liquid thought as the rebel craft's red lasers kept missing his gunboat and slamming into the hull of the Ishamel.

"Why in the good galaxy won’t it go boom?" LoneWolf asked flatly to himself, "Flight three take one more run then move for fighter cover. Flight two will just have to go after the other corvette." LoneWolf could hardly believe how close this competition would be. "Keep up the work Aegis! We can do this!" Adrenaline rushed through his veins, as did anger. "Damn you stupid computers!" LoneWolf was the first to pierce at the Tuscan squadron. He managed to steal a few shots but quickly moved to avoid getting caught in the deadlier return fire. He kept his fingers close to the power settings, almost regretting his move. He suddenly was relieved by the Force. "Excellent!" he bursted out, "your mine!" He pulled the craft in a bold U-turn to rampage the enemies. He took full linked shots carefully at the fairly big fighter. He was able to take one of the mammoths down when he picked up a tail. "Come get it!" the gunboat drifted around dodging fire and closing the space behind him. The Force pricked his senses then he quickly dumped half his laser energy into his shields. They came in time to absorb a full shot at his ships space, while the gunboat slipped behind the faster Tuscan. His shields collapsed, but offered the cover they had. The trick would barely work one more time, but the each shot drained the energy to pull the trick off. He had no tails. Hell broke loose on the fighter, and it died into shards of durasteel.

I saw the Ishamel exploded, three gunboats racing back into the fray and away from the expanding fireball. I was soon bashed out of my gaze bye the dropping of my shields. While I was atching hte explosion three Z-95s had gotten behind me and starting to cook my behind. I qucikly snapped my fighter into evasive maneuvers and brought up my communicator, "I could use some help here, I've picked up a couple tails." I managed to get one of my persuers in front of me, but the other two behind me were good. I couldn't get a clean shot off at the one in front. Suddenly I heard a shout and I checked my six, Kain had come around and cut my tails off. "Thanks Kain." I said as I locked onto the bogey in front of me and fired two dual bursts. The first hit, btu the second missed. "No problem," I heard Kain comm back. I ignored him and focused on my target. I got another clean lock and fired two more dual bursts. This time both shots scored, but the HUD showed no damage done. I thought nothing of it and then fired again. Still no damage reported to the Z-95. Getting angry and frustrated I switched to ions and fired off some solid shots. The Z-95 ahead of me didn't stop in its tracks, it merely went evasive and lived. What is going on? I asked myself.
