"Not sure if they have seen us yet. Can you intercept their communications, does this thing even have a jamming suite? Going dead here would likely get us pulverized by the rest of he junk. Lets get our shields up."

Silten sees what he can do.

Silten finds there is no jamming suite but is able to begin listening on on the ship to ship communications.

"...didn't sign up to be pulverised out here by space junk."

"Pipe down and run another scan, we'll find it out here. Greelo is going to want an update soon. I will bring him up."

A moment later,

"Yoian mee. Gee uba boonowa bu sahacmox'a hocan?"

"Nobata, tee hocan, um dotkot taneee baua doptkee wata. Ye wanya bacaka jeejee gee tytung bu tee-tocky du bu yoskah bai pacda bu pocma."

"Cha moova mee wata fet uba gee boonowa fa!"

"If we make it out of this debris at all" the first voice says after the line closes.

"The sshipss are looking for ssomething, I ssee no reasson not to believe they are looking for the ssame thing we are," Silten says. "They work for a ssentient named Greelo, whoever that iss. I doubt they are friendly."

"Lets get the shields up then. Maybe we will get the drop on them. Powering up the weapon." Corran says before you intercept the next message.

"Scanners are not finding anything large in this spot, lets move to point seven six. Maybe we'll have better luck there."

As you pull within range, you can make out that the two ships are Tie Fighters.

Silten raises the shields and braces himself for combat.

Corran takes advantage of the debris to position the ship for the best attack possible. The ties stay on the present course, oblivious to your presence. Sitting next to Corran, Orsk depresses the fire control buttons on the laser cannon. The laser blast hits the back of the first Tie Fighter, debilitating it but it is not destroyed.

"I'm hit! Blast it! It's bad! They got my engines!"
"Break Left! Break Left! Get out of there, I'll engage!" Silten intercepts on the comm chatter.

Corran slips the ship into another heavy concentration of debris and says close to larger ones and lines up Orsk for another shot.

"I am going to set us up to start an attack run on them. Ready that cannon Orsk." Corran says as much of the heavier debris floats out of the way giving a clear run at the first Tie.

Orsk depresses the trigger again

Kachunkthew!

And the first tie fighter is destroyed. The other swings around the quickly dispersing wreckage and gets in close to dog fight it out.

Orsk opens fire on the next Tie Fighter. but the attack goes wide of the ship as it rolls out of the way and returns fire with its cannons. Green blast splash across your ships shields and the ship is jarred roughly by the blasts but her shields do not falter. The Tie then makes a run for a denser cloud of ship wreckage and debris.

Corran pulls the ship through a loop to backtrack and pursue the ship. "He may try to make a break for it. Lets get him before he gets away.".

"The heavier debris is making it hard to get a good lock on him." Orsk says as he depresses the fire control again. The shot blasts across a large piece of a blasted starfighter, blasting it into smaller pieces.

As Corran maneuvers to keep close on the Tie and large amount of debris drifts into the path. Corran rolls the ship out of the way of the worst of it.

The Tie fighter spins around a large chunk of a ship and appears around the other side lacing your ship with more green laser blasts.

Silten quickly works on recharging their shields.

The shields power regeneration boosts momentarily as Silten reroutes power from other subsystems.

Orsk opens up with the cannons but the tie is to agile to hit and the bursts are no where near the target. The Tie wheels and opens fire but only blasts nearby debris.

"Can't this pile of junk go faster? He is getting away!"

"Pushing her harder than I want to already for being this old, but lets see if she'll hold together long enough." Corran answers and pushes the controls further. The whole ship shudders, sparks fly around the cockpit and several hose spring leaks.

"Whoops."

Nanshork · « **Reply #133 on:** January 10, 2017, 06:22:21 PM »

Silten grumbles about how perhaps they should work on not breaking apart for no reason as he starts fixing the leaks and trying to prevent things from sparking more.

With the most pressing issues resolved, the ship returns to operating normally.

The tie fighter's luck with the debris cloud finally runs out with a large chunk of debris hitting one of the wings. A meter closer and it would have taken the wing right off.

"He's in too close, I need a better shot!"

"Working on it."

Corran gets and opening and Orsk taskes it but the Tie pulls past a larger chunk of debris again nicking the wings but the laser fire blasts the debirs to component parts. The tie continues to loop around and opens fire on the ship but Corran maneuvers through two colliding pieces of garbage and the shots hit those barrowly missing the rear of the ship.

"Shake him so I can get a clean shot!" Orsk shouts as he fires at random toward the tie hoping something will hit.

The Tie fighter is able to mostly stay on the ship's tail and keeps firing. Corran dodges the ship through the laser fire and debris.

The heaviest of debris moves past the closely fighting ships and Orsk is able to get a clearer shot. The lasers rake the back of the tie affecting the engines.

The Tie's pilot works to re-route power but the smaller fighter limps on.

Corran whips the ancient freighter through a series of gut wrenching moves and pulls in behind the looping Tie. Orsk fires again with the blast hitting the center of the ball like cockpit, blasting the target to pieces which bounce off the ship as she plows through the debris.

"Wooo! Nice shooting!"

Silten breathes a sigh of relief, then looks closely at the ship around him. It's going to need a lot of work....
