OOC: Only thing I ask, is incorporate the story with the ones already written before you ;D
OIC: In the deepness of the ever black beyond, the Mol Calamari Battlecruiser, Insurrection lay hovering near the planet Talus. Having heard an unknown transimission from the far reaches of the unpopulated areas of the planet, it was a code used by the jedi long ago. It only lead to one conclusion, even though the Galactic Civil War took many jedi lives, there was still a few who remain. Only a few remain that can still change the tide of war.
Admiral Darkmatter stood on the bridge of the Insurrection gazing at the planet of talus, wondering and hoping a jedi would be there.
"Commander?"
"Sir?"
"I want a full scan of this entire system, I don't want any imperials finding out were here."
"yes sir"
"and have two scout x-wing patrols sweep the area."
"already done sir"
"good.."
"let me know when the perimeter is safe, I want a RSF (Rebel Special Forces) unit ready to land on the planet."
"aye, Sir."
Darkmatter turned from the front viewing window and walked toward his office. As soon as he heard he was given this mission, he knew this was something the Rebel Alliance did not take lightly. He was jedi apprentice being trained before he had to escape as a refugee. Which explains his mastery skills as a fighter pilot. However, he talks lightly of his past and doesn't discuss his experiences as a high ranking official. He respects everyone and every rank.
An hour passed quickly in the book Darkmatter was reading at his desk. Suddenly his personal communicator lights up;
"Admiral Darkmatter, we are picking up an Imperial Class Star Destroyer Sir."
"On my way Commander..."

"copy that" replied Darkmatter.
The Mon Calamari Battle Cruiser lay wing to wing to the heavily modified Nova Gunship. Perhaps there was still a chance to defeat a massive Star Destroyer with kowpla's ship.
"Launch all fighter wings." commanded Darkmatter.
The hanger roared with thunder as dozens of star fighters started their engines for this inevitable battle.
"status report" asked darkmatter.
"sir we have 20 out of the possible 24 x-wings working, 24 y-wings 6 a-wings and 4 out of 6 b-wings." replied, the tactical officer.
"what happened to the 6?"
"maintenance sir, there not checking up"
Darkmatter sighed. "Very well, launch them."
The two hangers of the Insurrection shot out the squadrons, Red, Blue and Green. At the same moment, The star destroyer launched its 60 tie fighters and interceptors.
"Red Group (x-wings) head for the tie fighters and engage only them. Green group (Y-wings and B-wings) stay close to to us, as well as you kowpla. I need your firepower, so save everything you've got. As soon as we come into range, I want all of us to focus all firepower at its main reactor. Blue Group (a-wings) make sure the ties stay off kowpla's and Green groups tail."
All squadrons acknowledged Darkmatter's orders. Kowpla on the other hand didn't signal, but Darkmatter hoped he heard. After all his comm link was damaged.
The Space battle was about to commence...

The scream of laser bolts filled the gapness of space. The chaotic space battle of Talus was fought between the Infamous Imperials and the renegade Rebels. Commander Darkmatter, with his escort of heavily armed munition fighters, the Insurrection and Kowpla's nova gunship, the Star destroyer laid poised in front for the final show down.
"Status?" yelled Darkmatter.
"Red group really pulling in sir, minor casualties, only 3 dead and 7 in for repairs." replied the comms operator.
"thats still too many" muttered Darkmatter.
"Helm, how close are we till were in fire range." asked Darkmatter.
"About 700 meters sir."
Darkmatter nodded and went to the ship public comm link.
"Green group, this is our chance. When I give the signal, blast away from our protection and fire everything you've got at the main reactor. As for kowpla, I want you to stay with them and do the same thing. Blue group, watch there backs."
Darkmatter then switched the frequency to the ship's deck.
"All gunners, load your turrets with the more firepower you've got and fire them straight at there forward shields. Fire them straight at the same target area, hoping we would overload there shields just enough time for the fighters to fire there torpedoes at the door of opportunity. Were only going to have one try at this. "
He flipped the comm link and looked towards the tactical officer. Seconds past and the officer gave a firm thumbs up back.
"All stations accounted for sir."
"Full burn helm." commanded Darkmatter.
The Insurrection fired its engines straight for the Star destroyer, Malice. Along with Kowpla, green group and blue group behind for protection.
"200 meters sir."
Darkmatter stood waiting for the cries of the battle to begin.
"100 meters."
"50"
Darkmatter Roared. "FIRE!!!!!!"
The Insurrection exploded its Turbo lasers with the assortment of torpedoes and cannon fire. The Malice shot there own munitions and firepower, trading weapons. Front to front the ships loaded there chance for victory. But the carefully hid fighters behind the Insurrection was about to give there own chance of taking down the Malice. As the Insurrection lay almost face to face with the Malice, Darkmatter ordered.
"Green group, Blue group, kowpla NOW!!!!"
The fighters broke off from the rear and relayed all there weapons into the same position the Insurrection was shooting at. Torpedo after torpedo, Ion after Ion smacked the mighty Malice at the front. As each explosion rocked the mighty star destroyer, the reactor was taking a hit. Finally with Kowpla at the rear of the entire group, his final burst of customized cannons and torpedoes, ignited the Star Destroyer to its doom.
"Sir massive internal explosions from inside the Ship."
Darkmatter gazed at the visual screen.
"we got em...." said darkmatter.
"Helm pull us away. and patch all ships to rendevous with our position."
The Insurrection blasted away from the imminent explosion of the star Destroyer. As it ignited in a giant fire ball, small fragments of debris splattered the shields of the Mon Calamari Battle Cruiser. Roar of cheer and congratulations filled the entire ship, as well as the comm link between the fighter groups.
As Darkmatter finally rested himself on a chair, the tactical officer came to tell him of the damage report.
"Sir the firepower of the Malice destroyed must of our front armour and shields, front hull integrities in critical condition and our front right cannons and launchers are off line. Reactor working only at 60% and the whole shield generator needs rework. It'll take some time to repair the damage. "
"You have 15 minutes" replied Darkmatter.
As he sighed of relieve, he didn't let his guard down. He told the comm officer to tell kowpla to pull back to there position. Never did he think that 3 star destroyers would enter the system. This jedi was worth more then he thought.
"Helm hyperspace us out of it, signal the other ships to also."
"Can't sir"
"Why not!" shouted Darkmatter.
"Reactor can't overhaul that much energy to the hyper drive without causing the hull to weaken more."
"SITH SPIT, hoth all over again...." grumbled Darkmatter.

Just when all looks lost, four of the feared Rebel Special Forces Squadron enters the system, leading 44 more elite fighters. Fourty-Eight fighters total, there were 12 assigned to each pilot: Vikrant, Negilum, Mobus, and Syek. The mixture of a-wings and x-wings was certainly welcome, by the lesser force...
"I don't know what you're doing here, fellas, but I'm sure glad to see you!"
"We're here to save the day, Admiral Darkmatter...duh," Mobus was always mouthing off.
"Well #@#% are $#@ waiting for!?" Came Kowpla's distorted but obviously excited voice over the open channel.
"Ideas," was Negilum's reply.
There was a moment of complete silence on the comm air then, as all the rebels contemplated what they were up against. Every single one was wondering how they were going to get out of this. Seconds seemed like hours.
Darkmatter held his calm. After years of commanding hundreds, sometimes thousands of men at a time and getting out of spots tight enough to make a Twi'lek virgin blush, he was used to staying calm and steady under intense situations. But this was unlike anything he'd ever been up against. Then again, he didn't know of better pilots than the ones with him now.
Vikrant was first to break the silence. Time was of the essence. "You seem pretty banged up there, Admiral. What's your status?"
"Not good. We are sitting ducks with our front totally exposed, our reactor damaged, and our hyperspace capabilities nonexistant."
"That doesn't sound so bad. We're only outnumbered three to one!" Mobus never said he was bright.
"What of the Jedi?" Syek was lost in the Force. Heshe reached out, feeling, searching for the Jedi on the planet below. "I can almost sense him. If you can get me down there, I might be able to retrieve him."
Mobus was tired of waiting, a few minutes and the enemy would be upon them anyway, "We can hold them off...fly close and be a major pain in the ass. You just keep on limping the other way."
"You just work on repairing that hyperdrive and reactor, we'll hold them off as long as we can. Then when repairs are done..."
"We can make them eat our space dust!" Mobus interrupted Negilum.
"Ya," said Neg.
"What about the Jedi?"
"Syek is right, we can't leave without the Jedi. That's what they are here after, too." Darkmatter didn't like the thought of letting the Jedi fall into enemy hands: to be tortured and twisted by the Dark Side. He had heard stories of the going's on in the Emperor's chambers. Stories he'd rather forget.
"I can sense him, I can find him! Just get me down there long enough to do so." Syek wasn't planning on leaving without finding that Jedi, this Force User who caused such a stir as to attract the full attention of two super powers. The Jedi who did this, and vanished, last seen slicing a nosey police droid into bits. All that was left was the memory core. This was an odd coincidence, since the largest piece left other than that was a metal finger. Syek had sensed that this Jedi wanted to be found. But by whom?
"It's risky, but we don't seem to have any other choice," Vikrant was right. Now was the time to get it on. Darkmatter began giving out orders, "Mobus, Vikrant, and Negilum, take your Squadrons and keep those imps out of our face. Syek's squadron will be assigned to me. Red group and blue group, divide yourselves amongst us, and quickly! Green group, stay behind and guard the Insurrection! If we fail, you will be the only thing stopping them from taking her down..."
Although almost everyone was surprised, and more than a dozen wanted to urge him to stay on the Insurrection, everyone knew that arguing with him was pointless. And no one did.
"Commander, get my x-wing ready."
Although there was a plan, and everyone was getting in their respective zones, both in space and in mind, for the upcoming clash with the beast, Mobus couldn't help but think of all the different possibilites. All the what-ifs were once again clouding his mind. He opened up a private channel.
"Syek. I...just wanted to wish you good luck."
"Thank you, Mobus...There is something you wish to ask me?"
"Yes..how'd? *sigh* I was wandering...what if the Jedi on Talus doesn't WANT to join us?"
"Then I will do what needs to be done."
"Right... Uh, I'll be seeing you, Syek."
"May the Force be with you."
"Ya, ya."
He disconnected the channel. Now Mobus felt a little better. He had wanted to join Syek. He didn't like sending heshe in alone. But he knew that his talents were needed in space to keep his Squadron alive. Besides, Syek seemed confident enough. He could concentrate on what needed to be done. Now he was ready. But he was not the only one thinking.
Syek knew what had to be done. Heshe had to do the impossible. Finding one person who could be anywhere on a planet is not easy, especially with a time contraint: an unknown and very likely extremely short time constraint. And all without knowing how the Jedi would respond upon being found? It didn't look good. But then again, neither did Syek. Heshe knew the risks. If heshe was not back in space in time, they would have to leave himher behind. The risks were known, but they wouldn't stop anyone today. This is the kind of thing you were told might happen when you sign up for the Rebel Special Forces. All were willing to take these risks. And today, they were taking them.

While everyone was coming up with a plan to handle the 3 new arrivals, the crew of kow's nova "The Empty Bottle" were hard at work repairing the damage done.....
Eoro: "Kow long range and short range communications are functioning at 100% again.
Kow: "W00t!! way to go eoro, baile how goes your repairs?
Baile: "Hull breaches are secure, shield generators back online and functioning at 100%."
Kow: "Great baile"
Kow: "As soon as you guys finish up there join me on the bridge, we will try to communicate with the Insurrection."
Eoro: "roger" Baile: "check"
On the bridge everyone waits as the communications come to life...
Kow: "Insurrection this is the Empty Bottle do you copy....."
Insurrection Com Officer: "Copy Bottle we read you glad to have you back at nominal communique...
Kow: "Yes its great to be back, is Admiral Dark available?
ICO: "Sure he informed me to patch you through as soon as communications were back on line hold please...........
Dark: "Kow its great to hear from you guys again, how are things coming on the Empty Bottle?
Kow: We are functioning back at 100% and ready to get back in the fight.
Dark: We are pretty beat up here, pretty close to being a floating death trap, major systems are done, hull breaches are all over the ship. Come aboard and join us in the ready room...we are trying to come up with a plan before the other destroyerers are on us.
Kow: Roger, clear us a hanger bay and we're coming in..... Oh Dark?
Dark: Yeah kow?
Kow: I know it looks bad right now but if we all get through this i'm buying the first round of brandy. Kow Out.
Will the desparate rebels come up with a plan in time? Will they be able to deflect or defeat the 3 star destroyers that are closing in fast on them?
Only time will tell............................

In the hanger of the Mon Calamari Battle Cruiser, Darkmatter, dressed in a jump red and grew gear outfit awaiting for the take off. Yet as he stood infront of his ship, it wasn't a xwing. It was a heavily modified Nova gunship, Broken bottle. Behind him, was Eoro, Baile, Kowpla and a strong contingent of RSF. 50 people in all.
"So we all have this covered? As the reinforcements of the starfighters engage the oncoming tie fighters. Blue group and us are going to fly under the imperial class SBD, HammerHead. Sneaking by the other SBD, I hope the massive force of the Ion cannons from Blue group would overload the shields below the SBD. I only want you guys to carefully lay your fire, even though were under the SBD, there oncoming fire is still very deadly. A few well placed hits would destroy your ships. So fly fast and hit hard." Hoping the shields are weak enough for kowpla's ship to puncture our way through the hanger bay. Some of you might not make it, so make your peace now. To your posts."
Darkmatter Saluted and headed to the Broken bottle, with the rest of the RSF crew behind him.

Time was passing faster then they hoped and the three Star Destroyers in a triangle formation, headed towards the insurrection. Darkmatter had already relayed the change of plans to mobus and ther other squadrons. Following through the mobus's plans may buy syek time to get to the planet, but Dark didn't want to jeopardize over a hundred men to save one. This was his crew, and there lives were more valuable then any jedi.
When the Broken bottle launched from the hanger bay from the Insurrection. Darkmatter got a comm link from the commander onboard the Battle Cruiser.
"Sir, were using every avaliable power to take the ship to a safe distance. In addition were making repairs as fast as we can."
"Thank you commander, keep up the good work." replied Darkmatter.
"Sir, might I alarm you that a victory class SBD is breaking off and heading for the planet's orbit, the same path syek is taking..." interrupted the Commander.
Darkmatter peered on the viewing window and the SBD was pulling away. He knew syek would be in grave danger, yet the rest of the fleet were tied with the tie fighters. None could be spared to protect syek. He only hoped that syek would abort the plan for now and fight along the rest of the fighters.
"Mobus!" darkmatter shouted into the comm.
"I need your expertise to lay a suppression fire in front of our group. I know your alertness and targeting are better then Wedge antilles himself. That rogue leader has nothing compared to you. "
Counting on mobus's skills Darkmatter hoped that all fighters in there path would disipate in confusion and scramble away for the other rebel fighters to deal with.
Darkmatter turned around and saw his RSF unit preping for the oncoming "blaster battle" with the SBD hammerhead. If all goes well, they will be able to catch the SBD by surprise with this small frontal assault.

OOC: Questions, Comments, Concerns or Suggestions? Feel free to say anything guys, is it easy to follow or not? LOL. Personally its going quite well, lots of nice written work and creativity. Am I the only one actually liking this thread? I know theres more then me and the "posters" because theres alot of views on here What do you guys think? ooh yeah, OOC stands for Out of Character. OIC is no such thing, mistake on my part. BIC is the correct label i believe.... its Back into Character. Anyways, quick factoid of the day, night, space time tunnel, Whatever!.

OOC: The story itself is good, Dark, but there's just too much passive voice for me. It makes it very difficult for me to read (the age-old fight between "show" and "tell"). Other than that, I'm more of a spelling/grammar critique person than a story critique person. And we've always used OOC and IC. I've never heard of BIC. Just "out of character" and "in character." Good job boys. Kula

As the brave RSF fighters prepare to engage the Star Destroyer, Syek is going full burn towards the planet where the supposedly jedi is in hiding:
Slipping planetside basically unnoticed, syek finds a nice clearing suitable for heshe's1 x-wing. Engines shut-down and all systems down, Syek immediately starts breaking out the camo net to drape over the craft. Deciding that the net isn't enough, Syek breaks limbs and twigs to place on there as well.
Convinced that the ship is adiquately camo'd syek continues on her journey.
"Well which way should i go," syek said. She brings the force into her to help choose her path. Then all of a sudden a vision forms in her mind.....One of pain and agony. Startled from this vision Syek notices that she is damp with persperation. Was the vision a hint to the ever turning future or merely a warning? "We're not getting anywhere just standing around, we better get moving." She says to her faithful "M2-D24" astromech droid.
About 2 hours into the journey, Syek picks up on the distinctive sound of repuslorlift engines. Judging by the high pitch, she recognizes it as an Imperial Lambda Class shuttle. Scurrying for cover and force lifting her droid to the same hiding place; she combs the sky for the incoming shuttle. "M2 don't make a sound." "There it is, over the horizon." "Looks like they are putting down in the 1st clearing we saw on the way in." "We better get moving before they pick up our trail."
As Syek and her droid begin again on their journey a constant nagging hangs in syek's thoughts.....what will this journey lead too? Will we make it back? ............

meanwhile after a crsh landing of his x-wing on the planet below, after sustaining damage in the battle to his enigines laying unconces for hours Kindreth Kin awakens. Not noticeing any of the terain around him he knew that he was on his own. Worried about what the out come of his fellow Rebals in space, he has no time to worry about it right now. After gathering his suplies up out of the storage compartment he hears his r2 unit sounding his alarm. Kin turns around just in time to see a oblect falling fast to the surfice of the planet way off in the distence.
"Well Sid i guess we will head in that direction and hope that it was one of ours." Kin says to Sid who has been with Kin sence he joined the Rebals back in the begining of the battle against the imps.
Just when kin was just about to turn back to his supplies he noticed and object falling to the surfice of the planet but it was going alot slower. Thinking to himself he was woundering if these were good signes or bad. Not haveing coms or any whay to comunicate with anyone Kin and Sid start off on the jurney arcoss this unfimilaer planet.
