Reaching his ship finally, Rieg stood by his astromech droid on the wing of his craft. "Arfour, prepare to begin transmission," he said. When the R4-P17 droid began the signal, Rieg spoke. "I've met with Ambassador Alexa and have begun obtaining information on the negotiations she wishes to embark upon when we reach the planet of Teran Four. We should be arriving there any moment. She expects no complications, but be assured that I will do my best in case any problems arise." He cleared his throat and continued. "Also, I've run into a young girl by the name of Jaden Usalarye. She carries a lightsaber but is not a Jedi and seems to be a stowaway. She's accepted my offer to bring her to the Jedi temple upon my return to Coruscant. I realize she's a bit old to begin any training, but she seemed quite excited to be going. She may be stronger in the Force than it seems. In any case, I shall send another transmission with any updates of the negotiations. May the Force be with you." R4 ended the transmission and Rieg entered the ship's cockpit to enter the coordinates of the transmission. "Arfour, please send this message to the coordinates I provided." With beeps and whistles in agreement from R4, Rieg waved at the droid and continued back into the ship, heading towards the garden to relax and perhaps talk with the Ambassador some more.

Mako began to whistle when a huge Starship appeared, looming like a giant horizonline. The StarDestroyer... She gasped at the mere power that it radiated. It looked capable for putting up a fight.....
She selected weaponcard and slid it into a slot. The Gray Laser cannon slipped out from a hatch under her Fighter.
"Locking on target..." she muttered as she perpared to fire the shots.

Maia had her feet propped up on the desk, reading a book. She glanced up at the screen in the top left corner and saw a small ship approaching slowly. She sat up and stared at the screen for a minute, trying to work out who this ship was working for. She saw something aimed at the Aurora. She automatically figured it was a friendly ship, just...just...she wasn't sure. But then the first shot was fired and the ship shook. Alarms went off throughout the room, and (she supposed) through out the ship. She grabed the radio-intercom and anounced, "Mayday, Mayday! The Aurora is under attack! I repeat, the Aurora is under attack!"
((Sorry....I've been on vacation and couldn't get onto the internet for a few days...))

((Nice to meet you!))
Mako scowled as the ship was suddenly alerted to her presence. She selected another weapon. A laser appeared out of the underside of the ship and charged up, the rainbow glow luminescent against the darkness of the galaxies.

Tommie gasped as she saw the ship. "I recognize her!" she muttered, trying desperately to navigate away. "Prepare to jump to hyperspace!" she shouted over the intercom. "Everyone strap in or you may just get vaporized!"

((Oo, originally, I was planning to get shot down and captured!))
Mako frowned as the Aurora performed an evasive manuever so difficult that she knew only one person that could pull it off without too much risk.
"Tommie," she cursed. "You?"

((Hmm, shot down and captured is much more appealing than escape!))
Tommie grinned as she pulled off a double loop. Things like that were difficult - especially on a Starship. She flicked a few final switches. They were almost ready to escape to the safety of hyperspace...

((Yeah, and it gives the characters a chance to interact. I can crash my Fighter accidently into your... Windshield? Maybe. Or you can just shoot me down. One hit from a big ship, I'm gone!))
"You okay back there?" Mako hollared. At first it seemed like she was hallucinating, but then a few yelped barks answered her question.
Out of the back, a little creature peered. It looked like a wolf puppy, but Mako was aware that it was as much wolf puppy as she was a goldfish. She whined softly, her face round and so devestatingly adorable and innocent, in harsh contrast with Mako.
"Vios, you can come sit here if you want," Mako offered in a cooing voice. The wolflike creature bounded up and curled up in Mako's lap as she prepared another weapon.

Tommie cursed loudly as an error message flickered onto the screen. "Damn this old machinery!"
Now they couldn't go into hyperspace. Tommie would have to fight it out.
((Well, actually Tommie wouldn't be the one fighting since she's the navigator, but no one else is online.))

((Okies....))
Mako cursed aloud as she realized that the Aurora had every intention to stay and fight. She released the Rainbow-glowing laser.
Naturally, there wasn't much damage that could be done with a single blast to a giant Starship, but Mako would fight, oh yes she would!
"Vios, we're attacking," Mako said as Vios' eyes glowed cybernetic for a moment as she analyzed the other ship.

Tommie readied the shotgun laser and pumped power to the shield generators. Mako wasn't going to get THIS ship, oh no she wasn't...

Mako snarled and streaked past the Aurora, leaving behind a trail of explosives that swerved to attempt to explode onto the larger ship.
Vios whimpered, and her eyes glowed yellow. Mako's Fighter hummed, and they sped back into position faster than a ship could.

Tommie's chair rolled and warning lights flashed as several explosions hit the bridge at once. Tommie hurriedly ran a practiced eye over the readouts. No severe damage...good. Power booster were functioning at slightly reduced power though.
Tommie released the shotgun fire, hoping that the quick shot would be made up for by the widely ranging lasers...

Mako recoiled as the Fighter suddenly rocked back for no apparent reason.
"Vios? What hit us?" she asked.
Vios whined and shuffled towards the direction of the impact of the lasers.
Colorful words that one did not dare to repeat spewed from Mako's mouth. "*CENSORED*" she muttered as the Fighter's wing began to show the signs of heavy damage.
The Fighter limped on one side now.

Tommie grinned. Good, a hit. Now she would show that little upstart what a starship was made of! Tommie activated the ship's gravity field. If Mako flew anywhere near the Aurora, she would be captured and offically in custody.
