*James and Calvin boarded the 'Lass as BA got the pre-flight sequence going but that was the last of the good news. As soon as the sensors powered up alarms began to wail throughout the ship.*
Oh my days what in the name of all that is holy is that!? Turn it off BA!
Cool, it Jay, I'm seeing what it is now.
*The alarm was silenced with a few button click and the sensors revealed what they were so desperate to show the occupants. It had detected the ships in orbit and the incoming fire on the facility.*
Err, Jay!? Get my master and Master Nemo into the ship now, we're leaving sharpish!
What was the alarm for, why are we leaving so quickly now!?
Star Destroyers in orbit firing on us, need i say more?
*James' face went white and he stood perfectly still for three seconds, this was definitely not good. His mind kicked in again and he turned from the cockpit and ran back to the airlock, opening it and sticking his head out into the rain before yelling towards Nemo.*
Master, we need to leave now! Something about Star Destroyers in orbit and them opening fire!
*Robert and Nemo both looked shocked, this was a very quick escalation of a tenuous situation. Tidus ran off to his ship and the pair of Jedi ran towards their own. Nemo's mind was racing as the facilities shields kicked in and were immediately hit by the orbital fire. This was close to the worst situation they had been in. The sound of the turbolaser fire quickened the Jedi's pace and they were soon on board and the airlock closed and ramp retracted.*
What is this i hear about Star Destroyers BA!?
*Nemo had continue to run to the cockpit with Robert close behind and James following. Robert took his seat in the navigators chair next BA in the pilot's seat. Nemo sat down in the captain's chair in the centre rear of the cockpit before BA replied.*
I don't know master, the sensors came online and they detected the Star Destroyers opening fire on the building.
Well get us out of here quick, fly low over there and get us out from under this shield. The target shouldn't be us...........................................................yet.
*As he finished speaking James had strapped into the primary gunner's seat opposite Calvin in the secondary gunner's seat. They powered up the weapons as Nemo powered the shield to maximum, they would need all they had to get out of this one. Tidus would surely be at his ship right now, a fairly large ship if Nemo recalled correctly and maybe they could use that to escape the planet, worth sticking close to the surface to find out. James was looking through his scope down the barrel of his dorsal quad-laser cannon, looking for any fighters wanting to try their luck. Calvin had the ventral laser cannon and could only see the vast expanse of sea beneath them, his face was filled with disappointment.*
*The ship flew low off the platform and continued out from under the shields of the base. They would fly in low circles until Tidus brought his larger ship into the fight. They might have to dock on board to escape but it would be worth it.*
