(( Ok. ^^ Let me get a li'l more Zendia in here, then I'll don Mordy's Imp uniform. ^^ ))
"Thank you," Zendia chuckled to Owen, thanking him for the vote of confidence. "Now that I'm the boss, I have something I have to do," she cheerily announced. "Before I retire to quarters, I have to inspect the work of the techs."
Looking to her squad mates, she then said, "For you, get some rest and downtime. A happy squad is an efficient squad. And, once the old man gives me the low down on things, I'll need everyone at their best."
As she said this, she absently mused I wonder how Kefka felt the first time someone called him "boss".
Crusader, Kessel orbit ...
Mordranna made her way to the detention block, flanked by a pair of stormtroopers. "Jackson, do the honors?" she asked the trooper on her left.
"Right away, Colonel," Jackson replied.
"Good deal," Mordranna said, the trooper bringing her back to the fact that, thanks to a favorable report, Lord Vader had seen fit to promote her.
The trio entered the cell, with Mordranna preparing a stim pack. "Time to wake up, my little Rebel friend," she said in an almost sing-song kind of tone, administering the medicine.
(( btw, FP ... what rank would Sigma be now? I kind of had the idea that he'd be the other trooper with Mordy, or did you have something else in mind regarding him? ))

((umm make him Mordranna's subordinate. so one rank lower than her. i forget her rank))
If you've ever come out of depressurization, been thrown into an induced coma, and then awoken through a stimpack, you'll now that it's not a pleasant experience.
Imagine skydiving, but being repeatedly hit with a mallet on the head, all the while knowing that the ground is accelerating upwards and will collide with you and reduce you to shards.
That's how Kefka felt as he groggily awoke.

"Alright, sure. See you in a few hours, Zen- I mean boss." Owen said, turning to go to his quarters on ship. Within a few moments he had arrived. Opening and shutting the door, he yawned, stripped off his pilot's uniform and went to sleep on his hard bunk.

(( ok. ^^ Mordy had just been bumped to Lt. Col., so that'd make Sigma a major, then.
Basically: ANH - Capt.
ESB - Major
RotJ - Col. ))
"Welcome back," Mordranna said to the rebel pilot. "We're en route to Kessel. I am Lieutenant Colonel Mordranna Brunhildt. Tell me your name?" she queried, attempting to take the edge out her tone. No need to be threatening and unpleasant, unless circumstances otherwise dictate, she mentally reasoned.
Rebel rendevous point ...
Zendia chuckled as Owen called her boss. "I'll take care of it. Count on me!" she said, before she made her way to the hangar in which Em Squad's vehicles resided, double checking the tech's work.

No matter how groggy, no matter how injured, no matter how close to death you are, the notion of ebing sent to Kessel will always scare the kriffing sith out of you.
Kefka's eyes suddenly saw light and he squinted, trying to get everything in focus.
"Irrelevant," he coughed, trying to be as uncooperative as posssible.

((So, when the next mission start?))
"Bwah..." Bishop sounded as a bead of cold sweat driped into his eye. As he has thought before, he'd been on the groung to long. The slight difference in gravity made him restless and grumpy. "Huh, I need a tranq and some spice." He'd transported alot of spice in his days as a smuggler and he'd dabled in it once or twice. The best, in his opinion, was booster blue. Hyped you up and left you on a nice sleepy low. However he'd need to be alert for his first mission so he shook the wantings out of his brain. The small quarters seemed to close in around him and passed out again.

((Lt. Col. is below Col., kiddies. Its the rank right under general. AS for the mission, it can't start before the backstory finishes developing.))
Orrin resumed his normal task of planning mission routes and strategic maneuvers. Apparantly, a splinter of Ruby once had liberated some prisoners years ago, and the imperials had rebuilt it. Orrin figured the imperial budget would simply rebuild, but kessel was different. They'd make it even stronger. He could not just expect the prisoners to break out this time. They had to break them out.

(( As Nelo says, Mordy's not quite the big boss, but high enough to command some groovy respect. Domo: a reference to the Doom Movie? ))
ISD Crusader...
"'Irrelevant?" Mordranna queried. "That's a mighty odd name, wouldn't you say, Major Dragoon?" she offered, turning to the trooper to her right.
"I feel obligated to remind you that Kessel isn't exactly the galaxy's vacation spot, if you take my meaning," she grimly told Kefka. "From the markings on your uniform, I'd hazard a guess that you're a fairly significant officer,"
(( Come to think of it, did we ever establish what rank Kefka is? ))

(( And now, back to Zendia. At least 'til FP posts ))
Rebel Cruiser with no name ...
Zendia inspected the work on the several fighters assigned to Em Squad. This must belong to the new guy, she mused, noting the A-wing.
"Working hard, Mongo?" she called out to the large human male.
"We got 'er just about ship-shape, boss lady," the tech chief called.
"The starboard dorsal laser on my X-wing seems to be out of whack. A bit too much play," she noted, her finger trained on the aforementioned laser actuator.
"No worries, ma'am. I'll have it up to snuff. Leave it to me!" Mongo replied, setting to work. "Dunno why them kids fly them A-wing death-traps. Now, an X-wing, she's a beaut!" he commented. "Anyhow, ma'am you just keep doin' what you do, and make the old boss proud, ya hear?"
"You got it," Zendia replied, setting to inspect Azure's X-wing. All looks good here, she thought with an approving nod.
(( got inspired by the first x-wing book. though I think Stackpole did a better job of it ... sweatdrop ))

((I just assumed Lieutenant. Jaina was a Lt. when she took command of Twin Suns.))
"Guess all you want." Kefka spat as he collapsed on the floor.

ISD Crusader, Kessel Orbit ...
"He's passed out again, ma'am," muttered Jackson.
"A pity," Mordranna sighed. "According to Admiral Breznev, we'll be docking shortly. We are then to escort the prisoner to the detention area, by way of shuttle," she stated. "We also have a Bothan spy to escort to the prison, as well," Turning to Jackson, she commanded, "Jackson, prepare a squad for the escort detail,"
"Right away, Colonel,"
(( FP: got anything for Sigma to say before we kick the main story into gear? ))

Jakar Sunset sat inside the small transport that was taking him to a Rebel Cruiser ahead. He looked to his right, in the tranparisteel glass, he saw his reflection. The intricate horns on his head and the lightly-tanned skin on his face. He was assigned to a fighter squadron known as Emerald Squadron. "We're closing-in on the transport," the pilot announced.
"Alright," Jakar said back. He had to say, he was nervous about this whole thing. But he also has never felt so confident.

One thing Kefka had learned as a child, in an unpleasant experience, was how to fake losing consciesness. It starts with holding your breath, than sort of rolling your eyes back into your head and then losing feeling in your legs, at which point you just fall.
To Kefka, there was something familiar about the trooper next to Mordranna, and he didn't know what. So he pulled himself together and kind of flailed, hitting the trooper on his right legplate. It was a risky move, if he was volatile, he could just kill Kefka now. The trooper swiveled and looked down.
"I thought you guys didn't let women into your corps." he said as he half-sat up.
