Here's a new story for everyone to help with - Darkened Skies, a story about a TIE training squadron's survival on a Rebel planet after a major battle. It starts like this:
DARKENED SKIES
It was a normal battle at first. TIE squadrons were deployed, but the enemy forces were too strong. They had no choice but to deploy a training squadron into the battle. But now survival is their objective - the only other option is death under darkened skies.
"This is Rookie One," Jack Nebulax said to his fellow squadron mates. "Everybody hang on. We all are still in training, but if we pull this off, we could be commanding our own wings some day."
"You're just saying that for the glory, Jack," Jake Far'shadow said into his comlink. After that comment, all Jack heard was his friends agreeing with that. "Fine, fine. If I do become a Wing Commander, you'll all have your own squadrons to command.
Rear Admiral Japheth's voice cut in: "Nebulax, prepare to deploy the squadron on my mark... DEPLOY!!
The TIE Fighter training squadron deployed and entered the battle. Not long after there deployment, a few A-wings were closing on their tails. "Break by pairs!" Jack Nebulax said, trying to distract the other fighters to follow him straight into turbolaser fire from a Nebulon-B escort frigate not far from where he was now. He fired as many shots as he could into the Nebulon-B's brigde before he made a hard right and watched as the A-wings crashed into the bridge of the frigate.
"That was close. Everyone still alive?" Jake Far'shadow replied with an out-of-breath voice, "I have damaged to the left solar array, but otherwise, I'm fine." Afterwards everyone reported in their damage before eight B-wing starfighters came flying their way.
