Atreia was colonized after the civil war by a Galactic Federation colony party of Humans, Dojourians and Antigans, but the colonization process has been anything but easy. At first, the settlers had problems adapting to the environment, then shipments were being raided by pirates. To make matters worse, the settlers soon discovered the seasons on the planet reached extremes of hot and cold weather. During one cold season, a much needed shipment of heating cores was captured by the pirates. In order to preserve the desperately needed colony, needed for its established mines of oriculcum gel, the Federation Defense Commission assigned a wing of fighters and two cruisers to the defense of Atreia.

A large bulk freighter dropped out of lightspeed and began a tedious approach towards the planet. A comm channel was opened with the planet to alert them of their status as the ship approached. With pirates being such a problem in this system, this was a necessary measure.

Moments later, the pirate legion Dark Rain's mothership dropped from lightspeed and began spewing fighters. The fighters bee-lined for the bulk freighter and began to pepper its engines and defenses in laser blasts. The mothership, an unarmed, remodeled bulk freighter, hung back and remained under cloak.

Alarm klaxons in the defense forces' base blared almost instantly after contact with the transport was lost. A full wing of fighter pilots, totaling twenty four men and women, scrambled into the pilot ready room and quickly doned their flight gear. The young commander rallied his forces as they ran into the hanger and hopped into their fighters. Moments later, the Thunder Shout Squadron launched from their hanger on the planet's surface and rocketed into space towards the desperate freighter.
