Justin suppressed a grimace as he lined up on fighter 1, squeezing off a burst as the targetting sounded.

Another solid stot Nikki was picking this thing apart.  she was still going for it.  The fighters concentrating on Lizzy.  Nikki was doing her best to blow this thing to kingdom come. "Hold on Lizzy.  This thing is almost dead in space"

 Lizzy would try and evade the bad guys shooting at her, and then try and shoot the right fighter. She would then peel off and try and get the jump on the right fighter and get behind it to line up a shot.

...........................................

 Justin  Nicks up  fighter  #1  it  slides  off  towards  Angela

Angelas gets a   hit  in on Fighter #2... it   climbs over top  of her to head towards  Justin.

 Fighter  Three  has  seen enough, and Dives on Justin   aiming   for the  nose to walk back to the Tail.

The merchantman Is    now  above the  Moon and seems to  be wanting to   dive, putting the  Moon between it, and the  fighters.

.....

 Lizzy and the two fighters   have a  rough  time of it, as they  all miss  each other

 Nikki batters  the Merchantman   again... it seems to be trying to pour  on speed.. but very little increase is  seen.

 Lizzy will let the fighters settle out as they both head right for her, Lizzy decided to try something that she will chalk it up too controlled chaos. Lizzy will power forward right towards the fighters coming at her she will then go into a corkscrew maneuver large enough to try and hit both fighter as she just continues to fire her guns at them.

Lizzy got hit some when she went into the corkscrew she hoped to try to get both but she just headed right fir the Left fighter and just kept spinning and firing.

Spotting the 3rd bogie fighter engaging; Justin sideslips under the first bogie weaving about the bogies using them as cover darting around and between them, taking snapshots when possible. Making it difficult for the third bogie to get a bead on him.

Again Nikki strafed the freighter, and again the sots were landing solidly.  It was slowing it seemed but yet dead in space.

 Merchantman  7/50

...............

 Nikki's   rounds   slammed  into the Merchantman  , more plates  flews  flew off, and   dark  rivulets   began to stream from the   area  that  should be the engine  room... suddenly.. Multiple  doors  Opened   that had static  field.  some  40  shuttles   shot out   from Both side  and  spread out  like a sera  of  locust, all were heading    Over the Moon... and the   merchant man kept  moving.

 Lizzy  took   a hit,  but the  screw maneuver  Devastated  the fighter   as   Lizzy flew  through the   diffusing  cloud where a fighter  once   had been.

..................

 Angela  was  dancing off to the   stern of the  Merchantman.. the   lead    enemy vessel  seemed to be in trouble and   shuttles  were   leaving  like rats from a  sinking ship.    Fighter #1  had  Hit her  as she  turned to get in its  tail


 Justin    hit   Fighter   Two with a defection shot  as he  tried  to   keep the  #3  fighter  from locking on. The #2  aircraft shuddered   and veering  off.. the #  3 fighter   did  get a hit on Justin's  starboard  wing

 The  merchant  man had  gone  'down'   no longer visible , because eof the moon

Compensating for the wing hit Justin lined up on F2 when his targetting sounded he Snapshot at it then pulled hard to Starboard angling to port bringing his fighter at right angles to any pursuit.


Attack F2 110
Damage F2 8

 Lizzy flew through the fire cloud that was a fighter, and she turned hard, she wanted to take this bastard out as well. Lizzy would fly her ass off to get a clean shot at the right fighter and see if she could take it out. When she had the shot, she opened up with all her weapons to take it out so she could help Nikki.

 This is when Lizzy saw the shuttles leaving the ship, " Fuck Nikki they are escaping, on my way but will be bringing company."

It did indeed look as if they were escaping, or at least abandoning their ship.   One thing the SIMS did not do was allow one to board to see if prisoners were aboard.  The escape shuttle were leaving but in her next pass she might get the freighter to blow and take most of the eject pods with it.  she strafed again hoping to hit the engines and make a lot of explosions.  Her shots still real solid and on the mark. "They are abandoning ship. It's done for"

 The   fighter  that chased   Lizzy  seemed bent on revenge  as it fired.

 about  half or the shuttles   were over the topof the moon and divign down..the  other half ( from the starboard) were  almost to the Apex

Justin commed Angela suggesting either they team up on the third fighter or her permission to help with the first.

"Freighters dead in space.  The escape pods are mostly heading back to the moon they left.  let's get this fighter done then help Justin and Angela smoke theirs" she stated then gunned the engines and aimed at the fighter.  The freighter continued to spark and spew flames as it's engines went out. If it acted up again they could smoke it easily.

 Lizzy pulled off from chasing the shuttles and did a loop to try and get behind the last fighter following her. " Ok Fury pulling off the shuttles and trying to get behind this bastard. You got it Fury." Lizzy would lock onto the bad guy if she got into position and then would open up on it.

Nikki moved to 'toy' with the last fighter of their group, allowing Lizzy to line up her shots.  she too would shoot as well to get the job done quicker "smok'em if you gott'em Phoenix"

Closing on the bubble fighter, his targetting sounded Justin squeezed off a burst at the Bogie

 Angela   Nicked     Fighter #1... The  Fighter    Veered off and hit he r with a slight shot of his own

 Justin Hit  #3... The   leader  nicked him  with a shot  in passing

 their  merchant man was well out of  sight  now,  and   shuttles  from the  Burning   merchant man were trying to follow  after.

......................

   Lizzy   missed her shot

  Niki  came in and got a decent Hit on   'right '  fighter.

  24  shuttles had left the dying merchant... 18 of them were still visible

<<<<<<<<<< from walking  about.

 Shadow  arrived at the SIMs , Orric  jumped to Salute, , nut Shadow waved it off,  giving the Master Chief  a whack o n the back. orrci   handed him the   scenario sheet to staufy , then the LC's eyes  went to the  screens.

Morsan's silence prompted a half grimace from Justin; thrusting away from the bogies he accelerated his sim towards the fleeing Merchantman, which displayed on the edge of his sensor array. Jinking randomly to make it difficult for any trailing bandits to target him. Chasing after the lumbering merchant Justin closed the distance, between his fighter and the fleeing vessel as the seconds passed.

 Lizzy would then stay behind the last fighter of their group, and line up a shot and take it, hopefully if she didnt destroy it, Lizzy hoped Nikki could finish him off, as she looked at how Angela and Justin were doing. " Nikki, you want the other Merchantman, or do you want to help Angela, your choice I will go where you don't." Lizzy would see if this fighter was destroyed before doing anything else.

"Go. help them, I can get this guy and join up" she said.  her craft so far was not damaged.  for Lizzy to join Angela and Justin would give her a chance to breathe.  She moved to block the fighter going after Lizzy.

Nikki didn't like picking off the shuttles, but she did know it was part of a necessary evil (after all there could be troops aboard that could come back and bite them in the ass).  She flew in guns blazing shooting at the 2 shuttles most likely to disappear first out of the 18 she could see.  first one took a massive hit and damage, the other was getting a hard blast.  those inside were going to truly shake and bake.
