Rogue Squadron pilot (open challenge to any Imperial)

[Lt Lujayne Forge]

Rogue Squadron, having just arrived at Chorax, had not expected to be dragged out of hyperspace. This meant their entry vector, if drawn as a line through space, would reveal their intended destination. Talasea in the Morobe system soon would be discovered by the Imperials as the Rebels' newest nesting ground.

The X Wing pilots exited their ships as they made camp at the abandoned installation and decided to turn in. Lieutenant Lujayne Forge suddenly awakens from her deep sleep as she rises from her cot. The chilling of the air and the deep darkness confirming it was still night. The fog drifting in through the cracked window of the small cottage seemed to amplify the silence of the night.


The Lieutenant sensed something was wrong. Pulling on her flightsuit and boots a dire wave of desperation washed over the young pilot. The unmistakable squish of mud beneath her boots alerting her to the presence of someone just outside the cottage. Looking up, the snout of a blaster carbine suddenly pokes through the doorway as a left leg encased in white armor worn by a an Imperial stormtrooper follows in its wake. The gun's muzzle moved to the right away from Lujayne now crouched behind her cot as she quietly unholsters her DL-44. The trooper begins a slow sweep of the room. Lujayne thinks of alerting the others but knows in their panic of being abruptly waken they would only be cut down making a run for their ships. Lujayne's fingers tighten on the trigger in anticipation as she trains her sights on the stormtrooper before he discovers the others.

Luke approached the site, having arrived separately from the rest of the group. a deep tremor in the force brought him to this point in time, standing outside of The Lieutenant's cottage

Luke carefully made his way to the entrance, no one had noticed him yet and guided by the force, Luke pressed the saber to the back of the troopers neck, a little flick of the button and the trooper fell to the ground and Luke entered the cottage and closed the door.

I suggest we go out the back. Luke produced his saber and cut them a door out the back.

After you Lieutenant.

[Lt Lujayne Forge]

Lt. Forge, relieved at the unexpected sight of her commander, Luke Skywalker, stands up as she witnesses the Jedi Master's proficient skill with a saber. She holsters her blaster and greets him with a warm smile as she casually looks down to the dead Imperial.


"I thought we had it. Good timing, sir! Where are the other stormtroopers? Wait, I must wake the others."


She goes to each cot as the battle fatigue ridden pilots finally awaken from there medicinal sleep. Wasting no time, they all fall behind Cmdr. Skywalker through the make-shift door his saber carved out with ease. They are shockingly introduced to an onslaught of verilion blaster bolts as the pilots take cover, returning fire on the squad of stormtroopers cleverly consealed behind the abandoned installation. Their gleaming white armor making for easy targets.


"Cmdr. Skywalker! Should we run for our ships?!"


Lt Forge shifts her attention from the blaster fight to Luke briefly as she waits for his command. The lead storm trooper with colored pauldrons barks out an order to his men, the audible click of his comlink concludes his short dialogue..

"Blast em!"

[jedimaster skywalker]

We would be cut down before we could get them in the air, we will have to work in waves the first wave will head for their ships while the rest of us provide cover, once in the air they can provide cover for the rest of us.

now divide your men and lets move, Luke grabs his blaster and starts firing on the troopers, he picked of 3 of them before ducking back under cover.....

[Lt Lujayne Forge]

"Yes, sir."


Lt. Forge, the ranking pilot of seniority since Lt. Horn and Cpt. Celchu are still back at base, orders the less experienced green recruits to make a sprint for their ships while the seasoned veterans remain behind furnishing needed cover. Forge squeezes off a round of crimson projectiles with her DL-44 as the stormtroopers switch their sights to the evacuating pilots. One bolt perforates the chest armor of a trooper as he is pitched back in his tracks.

An unlucky Rogue pilot is dropped by an apparent sniper stationed on a roof top as the Rebel doubles over hit in the mid-section. Lt. Forge twists to Cmdr. Skywalker.


"Sir, can you pick off the sniper while we hold off the others?"


Four pilots manage to make it unscathed to their ships under a barrage of blaster fire. One Rebel catches a bolt in his leg as his comrade drags him back to cover. Engines, shields, repulsorlift coils, weapons, and other vital instruments are activated in the ships. The HUD displays in the four X Wings become functional as monitors flicker to life. A diagnostic report scrolls by the first pilot's view ready to engage the stormtroopers as the screen turns green. Tightening down on the trigger button the young pilot sends consecutive red laser needles converging on the proximity of five troopers. They scatter as their location is obliterated.


"Sir we have them on the run!"

[jedimaster skywalker]

Luke scans for the sniper, Luke sets up his shot as he see's the sniper take aim at yet another pilot. Luke closes his eyes and envisions his target guided by the force Luke gets off two shots to the center mass and the sniper drops backwards.

Luke looks around and takes out two more of the troopers as they were falling back.

Luke watches as the pilots commence their aerial assualt on the ground troops.

Luke looks at the Lieutenant. "Start Pulling your men back to their ships, I'll provide the ground cover,..." before the thought of leaving Luke behind could be voiced Luke added "Thats an order Lieutenant."...

[Lt Lujayne Forge]

"But sir, you..." Lt. Forge is cut off by Cmdr. Skywalker's command. "Affirmative, sir."


Lt. Forge waves the others to their ships as they crouch under heavy fire. She turns briefly to see Skywalker performing incredulous acts of marksmanship dropping enemy soldiers left and right. Finally reaching her X-wing she gets up on the port S-foil and lifts the canopy setting herself in the cockpit, sliding on her helmet. Engaging the engines and shields as the repulsor lifts kick in levitating the ship. Her droid 'Shrill' whistles a welcome back. Nava data spills out over her main monitor.


"Im ok Shrill, we got stormies to vape."


Gently giving her ship throttle it accelerates over the camp, pulling the stick to the right Lujayne brought the X-wing on a wide turn. Hitting a switch up to the right the S-Foils become locked in attack position.


"Green Two engaging."


Lujayne pushed shield power full to front and brought her laser targeting program up on the main monitor. With her left hand she adjusted the sight calibration knob on the stick and spotted a squad of heavily armed stormtroopers. The box went green as the image locked into the head targeting cross. Hitting the firing button three bursts of laser bolts rain on their position blasting them into an incandescent ball of gas. She then kicked the X-wing up in a ninety-degree snap-roll to rendezvous with the other fighters.


"This is Green Two, no enemies to report."
