LoneWolf sat in the lounge, grunting as another drinking contest commenced. It almost made him sick that everything had come down to this. Members of his squadron leaving and coming back, only to leave yet again. Others simply lounging around like it has been a vacation. LoneWolf pratcially jumped as he got a message on his comm from the bridge; it was Riel Fury. "LoneWolf here, what is it sir?" he slumped and yawned as he answered the call. "Aegis Leader you are to report to the RAD Riel's office immidiatly; it appears we have an assignment for you." LoneWolf shot up in his seat from the first sign of work for what seemed like months. Work had been slow, and everyones spirit seemed to be drifting down from the drag of such a long war. The rebels had managed to tack down a supply convoy to the Atrus a few weeks ago and that seemed to hamper everyones hopes of using thier paychecks or enjoying a fresh role of toilet paper. Needless to say everyone was a bit sore in the posterior. The bridge seemed only a few moments away as the Aegis leader casually rushed to his friends office. It wasn't long he was staring at the back of some alien leathered chair, and the canvas of stars further behind the man. Riel turned the seat around to face the squadron leader. "Seems like you were in a bit of a rush. Are you that bored Aegis one?" The reference to his fighter name, sent a tingle down LoneWolf's back. the sheer mention of his warrior self made him excited for any assignment as long as his green lasers would punish those who apposed the Vast Empire. "I guess you could say I've been waiting for the orders for awhile. Sir!" He stood up straight not even wanting to sit down. Riel could sense it and didn't even bother to ask. Riel Shrugged then clasped his fingers infront of his face and proceeded. "As you already know i have an assignemnt for Aegis Squadron. Lately We have been hit by a series of rear raids. We have lost alot of supply convoys throught the Imperial Renements. Though I would rather not help those other Imperial renegades I do want to strike back." Riel shifted in his seat to lean forward and put his elbows on the desk. "I'm sending your sqadron out in the secured regions of inner core space surround the most... prized planets in the galaxy. I want you to take out as much supply convoys as you can, and if possible a few capital ships. This assingment should take a few weeks if not even a month or so. You will have to use various craft including your Tie Advanced. We will use some pirate signified ships as your escorts for this mission. Together you will have a small rag-tag fleet at your disposal. I believe that would summarize it all. I expect you and your men to leave within the next 36 hours. Good luck Ensign." LoneWolf Sharply Saluted, and turned on the heel. "We won't let you down sir!" His boots clanked with each step as he exited the office. While grabbing his comm, and switching channels to number Aegis, LoneWolf couldn't help but grin. He raised Sk8guy on the comm and ordered firmly, "Sk8guy! Prepare the Squadron we leave at 0400 hours tomarrow! We got some rebels to burn." He grinned all the way down the hall to the Aegis hanger to prepare the craft he would take on the mission. (Your Orders and mission details: We will be accompanied by Nebula B Frigate, one Escort Carriers, one Corellian Gunship, and two Corellian BlockRunners. This fleet will be bearing pirate markings and will not be affiliated with any imperial forces. Despite that fact we will have an arsenal of ships at our finger tips. The Escort Carrier will be holding our Tie Advanced, a YT-2400, and YT-2000. The Nebula B will be carrying a supply of Star Vipers, and R-41's. If you wish you may swap one of these supplied neutral fighters for one of your own privatly owned. If you do not own one, or just wish to; then you may use either a Star Viper or a R-41. We will use the non-imperial craft for our base work and only use the Tie Advanced to meet with the fleet and only when the situation seems severe. The beginning objectives will be to... -rondevu with the escort fleet -perform a hit and fade on a Rebel supply convoy heading to Bespin along the Corellian Trading Spine. -await further orders as Aegis Squadron travels along the Corellian Trading spine to the inner rim, and core worlds. Hopefully we can get this going good. I look forward to all of you activity Aegis Squadron.)

"It's a big universe, if you keep you mind to what you are simply told then your restraining yourself from finding what could very well be out there."

Sk8 sat in his StarViper fighter, the Dragon's Claw. The ship had been loaded with weapons and was now ready for combat. He kept the systems on, anticipating trouble, but locked the ship up. After he finished, he made his way to teh lounge of the frigate for a quick meal before planning with Lonewolf. "Our intelligence reports indicate that the Rebels have a convotyof weapons coming in to Bespin. Looks like they are being guarded by Carrack-cruiser and a squadron of fighters, shouldn't be too much trouble." Lonewolf reported to his XO. "Do we know what kind of fighters?" he asked back as he pulled up the intelligence reports. "I believe they are advanced X-wings, shouldn't be too much trouble." he answered. "Looks like the attacke will be pretty straighforward, three flight hitting the freighters while the other two take out the fighters." "But with that strategy most of the freighters will escape. I think we should have the blockade runners engage the freighters as well, attempting to box then in. Possibly we could have two flights hit the freighters while one deals witht eh fighters." sk8 proposed. Lonewolf thought about the plan, but then shook his head.Just as he began to speak, Rogue walked in the door, brandishing a huge smile. Sk8 could tell he wanted something, but what was the question.   ----------------------- EFL/1LT Michael "sk8guy" Rose/Aegis 5/mSSD Artus/DEF/VEN/VE      (=A=)(=MA=)(=FOCE=)(=JCPA=)(=SCPA=)(=UCPA=)[-BRC-][-CoB-][-VC|E-][-VC|G-][-LoM-] DJK sk8guy/Eagle1-7/VEDJ/m/SSD Atrus      "Unleash the power of the Dragon!" - Michael "sk8guy" Rose

Sk8 listened as Rogue explained his suggestions. He was intent until he heard Rogue's second idea; he almost broke out into a laughing frenzy, but held it back, only letting a smile cross his face. Sk8 only stood there, hearing the two men in the room converse until Rogue left the room. Sk8 walked after him toward the door, only to stop before it and shut it. "Man, was he serious? Lonewolf, we need Rogue in his fighter. He is no good to Aegis in a Gunship." sk8 protested to his commander. Lonewolf seemed to take in the arguement, but only resumed to perfect the srategy. "I agree with Rogue." he suddenly said. Sk8 immediately shouted his astonished protest, "WHAT!". "I mean about the Carrack. I think it would be wise to have the Eagle and the Golem(ESC) attack the Carrack while the corvette's and gunships hit the freigthers. I still would like to divide the squadron up though. " Lonewolf deduced, runnings his hands through his shaggy hair. Sk8 thought on the matter, pouring himself some more Mountain Dew® from the Keg. "Well, let me propose a question. If we came into teh system with full force, every ship we have, what would keep the supply convoy there? Just about every ship they have can out run ours, except the fighters." "I see your point." Lonewolf said as he too poured himself another cup of Mountain Dew®. "Plus we're supposed to be in the guise of pirates. How many pirates do you know in the galaxy that have 5 capital ships, let alone ones as big as a frigate or escort carrier?" sk8 said  before he chugged his dew. Lonewolf seemed to take in the question as he shrugged his answer and then began to reset the tactical screen before the two officers. The screen flickered, then reappeared, this time their forces only contained teh two corvettes, and the fighters. "Better?" Lonewolf chided as he sat down to redo their strategy. Teh only thing on sk8's face was a giant smile, and a small  trickle of Mountain Dew® running down his chin.   ----------------------- EFL/1LT Michael "sk8guy" Rose/Aegis 5/mSSD Artus/DEF/VEN/VE      (=A=)(=MA=)(=FOCE=)(=JCPA=)(=SCPA=)(=UCPA=)[-BRC-][-CoB-][-VC|E-][-VC|G-][-LoM-] DJK sk8guy/Eagle1-7/VEDJ/m/SSD Atrus      "Unleash the power of the Dragon!" - Michael "sk8guy" Rose

OOC: What about the freighters? This is a convoy, not just a Carrack Sk8 brought up the question of the freighters to Lonewolf as he shut the holo down and began to vacate the room. Lonewolf turned and faced sk8, "The Eagle will handle teh freighters until one of the fighter groups can get their objectives done." He quickly turned his datapad back on and edited his post on the Comnet: Mission Objectives: - Flights 1 and 2 attack carrack with heavy rocket payload. - Flight 3 will provide fighter coverage along with The Wolf - Corvette Maruader will hit the freighters; fighters help out whenever possible Secondary objectives: - Inspect the freighters to see what cargo they are holding - Identfy exact contents of Carrack's weaponry load - destroy all opposing fighters His datapad then flickered off and Lonewolf trotted off down the hall to his quarters. Sk8 stood in the dark room, a grin slapped on his face. He could hardly sleep with the upcoming mission on his mind. So began his restless walk through the hallways of the Eagle.

     "Unleash the power of the Dragon!" - Michael "sk8guy" Rose

A dizzy feeling of floating was supressed through the straps LoneWolf had pulled down on himself. He opened his eyes to see the red-orangish planet in front of him. The computer offered the same report he read earlier: "Ready". He streteched his arms out in front of him as far as they could go. He activated the targeting system to combat mode and warmed up his engines. As he predicted the convoy suddenly errupted from hyperspace. The V-4 suddenly roared to life with a burst from it's engines. they had a tremendous gap to close, as planned everyone engaged their blind jump quickly. The rag tag fleet of imperials suddenly appeared right behind thier targets. "Ok Let's keep the chatter down and smear the enemies!" LoneWolf dropped his shields wanting to feel the speed. "I'll rush first, you fallow through Sk8!" The alien fighter danced in a diving attack to thier target. burst of lasers tried and failed; LoneWolf didn't try. The V-4 Lighting III mad a dazzaling pass on the ship. a couple of explosions of heavy rockets flexed the hull despite the shiled reinforcment. LoneWolf used his sheer speed to deliver the slow moving rockets to their destination, using his timing to release the payload at the right time. The cruiser dropped down to 142 on shields. LoneWolf almost forgot what he was doing after amazingly looking at his destruction. To his demise one of the gunners noticed he was distracted and hit his failing shields to 37%. The V-4 used the banging moment the turbolaser fed to twirl around in a dive around. That seemed to be all that he could do. Sk8guy made another effective pass to the now panicing Carrack. The old imperial made ship took a steep dive to the planet's atmosphere. "Sk8 we have to destroy that ship before it gets to the planet. It's making a confident move, the Rebels must have an airspeeder force down there for support." "What about it's contents?" LoneWolf looked on his computer and found he got a 36% scan. "If we don't disintigrate it we can scan the ruble while it's IN space." "Let's get this sucker down!" Sk8guy commenced another attack and LoneWolf studied the situation. "Rouge hows it going?" "I wont say it's the best!" LoneWolf pulled the throttle to full so he could make another effective swing. "I'll take one more pass and set back to give you a hand that corvette may not be too well designed for fighters." Rouge held no objection seeing that the Wolf already suffered more damage than him. "No!" "What?" LoneWolf howled. "Give me more time to give these rebels something to worry about!" "If it begins to look too bad I'll have to intervine. Keep up the good work!" LoneWolf's vision shifted direly on the Carrack that appeard to be nail driving straight down. LoneWolf kept his trigger finger instinctivly firing with the laser cannon. Turbolaser fire increased dramatically almost creating a wall. LoneWolf moved his finger to release the second and last fire but all his senses snaped to him to move his course. He narrowly dodged a shot that began to burn his paint job. consequently he passed to far. "Stang! I gotta make another pass." LoneWolf twirled around in time to see his friend take his turn. hopefully he decoyed the turrents long enough.

"It's a big universe, if you keep you mind to what you are simply told then your restraining yourself from finding what could very well be out there."

OOC: Sorry im late. Rustichituk had his Toscan, Rage, put in the bay after he had heard what was going on. The wookie was glad that they finally had a mission, for it was getting quite dull around and Aegis seemed to be slaking  off and this may bring the Squadron back to its prestigious point of Elite. The wookie was glad that he could use his own ship, which had no markings on it in the first place. Rogue had informed him that their orders were to protect The Wolf. This may be difficult for Flight 3 only had 2 fighters, but that would prove no obstical to the wookie or the flight for that matter. It was time…Rusty hopped into Rage and blasted out of the bay and flew up next to Rogue who was hugging the Wolf. Rusty had blind-sighted one of the X-wings and disintegrated it with the laser pulses from his Toscan. There were only four of them left. They regrouped themselves in attack position to fire upon Rogue and Rustichituk.  Rusty had peeled off of Rogue and the Wolf as to create a diversion for Rogue…3 of them followed leaving 1 for Rogue to handle. This was a problem for the wookie who had just screwed himself. His frantic evasive manuevers were keeping the blasts from hitting his hull, but he couldn’t shake them…The Wolf managed to help Rogue as they blasted the X-wing to pieces easily…Rogue was catching up with Rusty at the moment in an effort to help his flight member. Rusty “Damn it! Rogue I could use some help!” Rogue “Im comin’, just hold them off for a bit longer!” Then the X-wing hit the wookie’s ship…that was just an invitation to death, for this pawing at a wookie was enough to enrage him, but it was a whole nother story to blast and hit his starfighter. Rusty “Nevermind, Rogue, these little bastards are mine!” The Wookie was determined now, they messed with the wrong wookie today!

Sk8 raced across the hull of the carrakc causing tiny explosions with his lasers. The newly assigned chipmunk was on his wing, following him closely trying to keep up with his exprienced flight leader. Sk8 smiled as the raw pilot jerked as he fired at the hull; he was good, but a little too unsure of his abilities. Of course he didn't have an attunement to the Force like sk8 either, but sk8 had seen some pilots who weren't able to sense the Force twice as good as him. One example that popped into his head was the famous Rebel Wedge Antilles. Sk8 dropped those thoughts and focused on the moment. His Starviper came within 3 meters of the hull and sk8 pulled up, he only hoped that chipmunk hadn't tried to get as close. After he cleared the hull and raced away from the deadly ship he realized the the young pilot hadn't, which was a good thing. Soon after he finished his run, sk8 saw Lonewolf raking laser fire across the hull in much the same way. His commander's wingman were far back, not trying their skills or luck with the same manuevers. Sk8 smiled as he realized how many young, new pilots Aegis had suddenly acquired. Sk8 has seen pilots come and go to Aegis, most of which moved on to command positions, but this was his place; this is what he loved, flying amidst the battle. "Ready for another run Chipmunk?" sk8 commed over to his wingman. A very shaky reply came back with an affirmative. Sk8 rolled his TIE around on the starboard and flipped, lining up for a devastating blow. His targets were the vital systems right below the bridge. He concentrated and focused his thoughts on that one point. Slowly he let laser fire arc out toward the weak point in his mind, and was rewarded with a series of firey explosions across the ship. The carrack, however, wasn't dead yet, merely faltering in its steps.  sk8 saw chipmunk's green laser fire arc past his , scoring hits on random points along the hull.  As he watched the rookie pilot's laser fire, he saw that it struck a turbolaser and a big fireball erupted from the side of the ship. Right after the explosion, the huge ship started to turn, attempting to align for a hyperspace jump. Aegis wouldn't let that happen. Loewolf was doing his run now, focusing on anotehr weak point just above the engines. The ship was once again rocked with explosions and fireballs as bulkheads collapsed with each hit. Debris filled the area around the carrack hull breaches riddled the hull and sk8 guessed it wouldn't survive a jump even if they could make it. Right on cue, escape pods began to pour our of teh doomed ship. Hundreds of the tiny  the little crafts filled the battlefield. Sk8 ignored them and focused on destroying the capital ship of the enemy. Just as he began his next pass, the ship broke off into two enormous pieces, ripped apart by the tearing vacumm eating away it's insides. The two halves drifted apart and sk8 was statisified now. "Nice job six, now it's time to pick off the scraps. Engage those freighters."

(ooc: *Cough*NOTIEFIGHTERS*Cough*) "Regroup! All ships head back to the fleet." Rouge blurted out, "LoneWolf! We just captured some frieghters. " "They supplies they carry will be picked up. The Eagle can handle herself." LoneWolf replied very friendly, "Fall back and lets head home." In a matter of minutes all the ships were emerging back from hyperspace in front of the Nebula B frigate, and escort carrier. LoneWolf was one who was able to reserve a docking port on the belly of the frigate. "Sir how come we didn't vape the other fighters, and pods" "Because pirates would soon realize that reinforcments would be on their way. obliterated that space force would simply alert the ground forces to call for bigger support. Thus gathering more attention onto our operation. We did our job. Gather in the briefing room we got our next attack to plan." ----- An hour later, after all the pilots used the refresher and got what little sleep they could. All the aegis pilots were in the briefing room. LoneWolf hit the hologram projector bringing up a map of the galaxy, which then narrowed on the Corellian trading spine where they were currently at. "We are here" The map blinked a green dot confirming their location. "We are currently enroute to Corellia. There we will do a raid on a recently repaired strike cruiser in the system. It was badly damaged in a battle and had to be repaired a parsec away from the planets. Our spies have informed us that a crew will be arriving to replace the skeleton crew. What we're about to do is tricky." LoneWolf click a control pad and a battle scenerio popped up. "We will arrive the same time as the replacment crew and whipe out their transports. Once they crews are destroyed we will liberate the strike cruiser in the name of the Empire! When we have possesion we will take the cruiser to Corellia and destroy a munitions depot full of more supplys on teh planet. We can hopefully get some use from those speeders we just got and steal some more supplies. depending on conditions teh cruiser may or may not join our fleet. That is all Ill send a message on the comnet with further details." (Orders, and details: We will ambush the transports with our own fleet when they arrive at the newly repaired cruiser. Once the new crew is killed we will seige the cruiser and storm it with our own teams. Aegis squadron, along with other crewmen will take control of the ship and load it up with the speeders, and a few escape transports. We will then jump to Corellia, bring the cruiser into the atmosphere and bombard a remote supply depot on foot. We will eliminate all immidiate fighter/speeder threats with our stolen ones and raid the depot on foot. You will have to be armed with a blaster if you wish to aid in the melee. -cruiser must survive -all incoming support craft must be destroyed -crew must be subdued by any means ------- -use speeders to destroy fighter opposition on ground depot and obliberate all turrnents. -make several passes on control towers, and barracks. try to avoid hitting supplies. -First objective is to destroy supplies -secondary is to capture them if possible these orders may be updated at any time. may the force be with you.)

Sk8 sat under his fighter, doing a quick systems chekc of it. The last battle had caused some tiny problems with his computer; he had to replace it before the next encounter. While he was under the sleek starviper, his weapons droids reloaded and cleaned the sleek ship. The board he was working on shot sparks, giving him a shock. Angerily he slide out from under the fighter, circuit board in hand. He would have to roder a new one, which meant he would have to use his Aetherspite fighter in the next battle. he stopped working on the Dragon's Claw and moved on to ready the Aes Sedi. His droids once again loaded the modified Aetherspite with missiles and calibrated his lasers. Sk8 prepped teh systems for flight. Once finished, he ordered the part for his starviper and then proceeded to the lounge. Once he arrived, he found Lonewolf sitting at a table, eating some roasted meat. Sk8 walked over and sat down next to his friend. A serving droid approached and took his order, getting the getting the grilled tuna steak. It produced a beer and went off  to retrieve his meal. Lonewolf tipped his glass to sk8 and the two sat there talking about the future of Aegis. Te pcoming mission would prove no challenge to the veteran's in Aegis, but Lonewolf was worried about the new pilots they had recently aquired. sk8 agreed, bu the matter was silenced once sk8's meal arrived and he was lost to his appetite.

Chipmunk Man wished he could send a com message to Sarah, but Aegis was under orders to remain silent when possible. As he sat in the lounge drinking his Sun Drop, he noticed Rogue of in a corner and decided to go yak.   "Man, I almost got fried on that last mission. Err, my first mission."   "That can happen," Rogue replied.   "When do we start the next mission?"   "Dunno," said Rogue.   "Any idea if LW will gimmee some leave to see my sweetheart on Corellia, or should I just not bother asking him?"   "No chance." Rogue didn't seem to want to talk, so Chippy left him alone.
 
-----------------------
I am Chipmunk Man
Here me squeek
Then bury your now-dead cat

  Chipmunk followed Sk8's lead and chased the 2 x-wings. The pair suddenly split, and Chippy broke to starboard and followed one. He twisted and turned, rocked and rolled, trying to get a lock on the rebel. Suddenly, the rebel tried to double back, but flew directly into Chippy's sights.   "Your mine, sucker!"   Green lasers streaked towards the X-wing, overloading its shields and frying 2 engines. It tried to swerve, but exposed its cockpit in the process. 2 lasers shattered the canopy and blasted the pilot into smithereens.   "Yaaaahooooo!! I got him! Hey Sk8, I got him!"   "Get back on my wing, NOW!" came the angry reply.   "Yes sir! Sorry, sir!"

  A direct attack on a star destroyer?! Was Sk8 insane?! They'ld be vaporized!! Chipmunk though about refusing the order, but decided he'ld rather die bravely than be executed. What would Sarah think if he were court-martialed for cowardice?   Chippy did his best to put that aside. Right now he had to concentrate on not getting fried. He and Sk8 launched their missles, then switched to lasers and began peppering the hull. They were some of the first to attack the SD, so most of its fire was concentrated on them. They started zig-zaging trying to knock-out some of the turbolaserswithout getting plastered in the process. Lasers were everywhere, leaving bright red streaks in Chippy's vision. It was as if he had stared at a neon light for too long.   His thoughts raced. What if he died?Would he become a ghost, free to wander and haunt whoever he wished? Or would he be bound to that spot, stuck there for all eternity? Maybe his spirit would go to some afterlife paradise, or prehaps just cease to exist. And there there was Sarah...   -Sarah? Are you out there? I love you, Sarah...-   "Don't worry, Chippy. If anything happens, I'll let her know," Sk8 said.   Sk8? Chippy didn't think he had said anything out loud. Had he imagined it? No, he had heard it too clear for it to have been imagined. He had been told that Sk8 posessed some sort of power, but Chippy didn't believe in that sort of thing.   Sith spit, he had to concentrate or he'ld get plastered! He was pulling away from the SD, setting up for another run with his lasers.   -KABLOOM-   "Sk8, I've lost flight control! Sk8!"

Rogue was late launching into the fight. By the time, he had been awakened by the scramble alarm and had managed to make hit to the Eagle’s hangar through the corridors of crewman scrambling to get the frigate to battle stations, his fellow Aegis members had taken a chunk out of the Rebel fighters, and were moving on the VSD.  He was flying his SA-43 Hammerhead since it was ready to fly despite the order to switch ships if the Aegis pilots had flown a unique ship on the previous strike. He lit out for the VSD, since the hammerhead’s heavy load of missiles and torpedoes would hurt that ship the most.  For some reason, the X-wings didn’t really pay attention to him, they seemed more concerned with LW, Chipmunk and Sk8. He reached launch range and began launching torpedoes at the VSD, saving missiles for closer in.  He set his rear turret guns to automatic so he could focus on taking out the VSD’s weapons. He began selecting turbolaser emplacements as well as the shield generator and sent pairs of torpedoes out til he ran out. He followed that with all of his missiles, except for one last pair that were his ace in the hole. By the time he fired all those, he was really close to the VSD’s hull, .2 of a klick to be exact. He began evasive maneuvers to try and get out of their and back to the dogfight with the X-wings

Sk8 grabbed the last thing in his room, the giant Aegis banner he had hangng over hid bed. Tears rolled down his checks, as the last tack fell to the metal floor with a clank. Sk8 crumpled the colorful fabric up in his hands and pulled it to his chest, more tears followed. The only squadron he had been in was gone, disbanded; its members were reassigned to the other various squadrons in the Navy, most went to Viper. All his career sk8 could see the squadron growing greater and greater, until suddenly all his friends were promoted out. He had been one of the founding members and it hurt him to see it disbanded. After a few minutes of pain,  sk8 began to slowly fold up his sacred banner. He made sure to crease all the folds and then he gently put in a box and cared it off to his new room. He still hadn't decided if he was going to hang it in his new quarters, amid Kaph squadron. With one last glimpse, filled with remorse, he turned the lights off and shut the door. Sk8 walked down the quarters, dragging his duffles behind him. All the crew he passed could see the look of defeat and dispair in his eyes; the look of a lonely pilot, losing his squadron and friends. Sk8 made his way slowly into the unfamilar terrority of Kaph squadron. After finding his quarters, he unpacked his possessions and hung the Aegis banner above his door. He decided to swallow his fears and not lose faith in his true squadron. The room was different and seemed smaller than his Aegis room, but it would do. Just as he was about to wander around and meet the other pilots on the squadron, Darkhawk walked in. Surprised to see hid friend, sk8 greeted him with a greeting and a question, "What are you doing here? I thought you'd be off with Admiral Three somewhere?" Darkhawk simply smiled and answered, "Nah, he has decided my advice was useless and has begun to make his decision based on his own thoughts and opinions. So I'm sorry to hear about Aegis, it broke my heart to see what happened. The Lusthawks will survive though, and we'll become stronger from this. Anyway, let's go meet the rest of the pilots." Sk8 smiled back and the two old friends walked off deeper into the Kaph part of the Atrus. Along the way they met the rest of the Kaph pilots. Sk8 instantly felt welcome, but there was still the void left from Aegis.
