"Got one smoking and another dented" Nikki said aloud "best teach him smokin's bad for his health" she bore down again on another pass. she needed to figure a way to take them out faster, Lizzy needed help.

Weaving about Justin closed on the Merchantman. A shot from the bubbled bandit swept past his port wing. Undeterred Justin continued to close on the Merchantman, when in range Justin squeezed off a snapshot at the bogie.

 As Nikki headed after the shuttles, Lizzy went full tilt dogfighting with this asshole, she wondered if he could keep up. Lizzy banked, turned and tried to avoid his attack as Lizzy opened up on him when she had her shot.

 Lizzy flew liked control Chaos and the Roussian never had a chance, Lizzy evaded his shots and then turned hard and lined the bastard up and opened up her weapons, and their last fighter went up in a fireball as it exploded, no pod. Lizzy then hit comms," Our last fighter is gone going to assist Angela then head to you guys."

 Lizzy smiled and then went full speed to intercept the fighter trying to shoot down Angela.

"Gett'em Fire!  I'll pick off the pods" Nikki called as she fired again into the escaping shuttles.

Nikki took the fight out of the 2 shuttles as she got closer to the moon.  she could see the freighter there plainly lying in wait then the Roussian Capship waking up like a slumber bear. "Banshee to Hermes fighters..." her voice calm yet serious " we have another freighter and a Roussian Capital ship" she headed to the cap ship to close on it before it could lock on her "It's just waking up" she snarled a bit as her SIM fighter sped up.  If she could get close their big guns would be fairly useless against her fighter.

 Lizzy flew like a madwoman to get to Angela, she would try and take the fighter by surprise but when she had a shot she would open fire on it, to free her and Angela to head to the Cap ship. " I hear you Fury, you said it is powering up we dont have long we need to take it out, as soon as this fighter is gone we are heading your way Fury."

 "Angela I am coming in fast, turn hard to port when I give you the word, pull that bastard right into my gunsights." Lizzy would wait then comm," Angela hard port now." Once Angela did that Lizzy waited and the fighter came right into the sites, Lizzy opened fired with all guns get rid of this mother fucker they had bigger fish to fry.

With the detection of the Capital Ship, Justin commed its location along with any details about it, that he could obtain, to Command. Checking with the others to get an idea what they planned to do. He continued evading the Lead bandit and fried a snapshot at the Merchantman.

Nikki closed quickly so it would be tough for the Roussian ship to hit her ...but, tough for her as well. her fist strike barely hit and did very little in damage if any at all. she would aim to do better.

 Lizzy opened fired on Angela's fighter she hit it, but didnt do a lot of damage. Lizzy was pissed, she would evade and then try and get a kill shot on this bastard.

   Justin hit   Freighter that was heading towards the  Cap ship..the   shuttle  were headed towards  it as well....The  leader  fired  at Justin again as he was stating to close.

 Nikki attacked the  Cap  ship. dinging its plates.

  Lizzy and Angela  were having trouble with their  enemy Fighter..


  then the staic  fields  starter to flicker, as Roussian fighters  were lanched.

 On ALL COMs, the ESN  fighters heard.

... This  is The Hermes.. we  will  be  at the Moon..it 10 minutes.....

Acknowledged Hermes Justin replied Shooting at the Merchantman then flipping his Fighter 180%, and lining up on the trailing Bogie, snap shooting at it as he did.

  Lizzy wanted to get this bastard quickly, the Cap ship was powering up and soon they would have company, a lot of it. Then Lizzy heard the Hermes say they would be there in 10 minutes, Then Justin replied to the Hermes, he was the Senior Officer. " Ok everyone, lets kill as many of them as we can and hold on until the Hermes gets here what does everyone say."

 Lizzy would try and evade the fighter again and then shoot the fucking bastard when she got her shot, Lizzy wanted this fucker dead.

Nikki growled.... more at her own impotence than just missing. "Copy Hermes" she said tersely and again fired at the car ship as she flew by.  She needed to keep it interested on her still allow others to pick it apart.  She fired again...and hopefully hit something good.

Nikki was so close she knew it would take the Hermes to truly get this thing but every damage counted.  She bore down again.  this time she fire it managed to hit and take a piton tube out.  It was a minor part of the communication array.  over all, a minor ding but it fracture the metal a bit.  Probably cause a 'zzt' buzz on someones comm on the ship, but not much else. "Atleast I hit the fucker" still irked a bit.

 Lizzy looked at the derelict ship and then at the Roussian vessel, then saw the 20 fighters. Lizzy saw Angela, the saw Justin with the Leader of the first group, Nikki was attacking the Cap ship. Lizzy got on her comms," Nikki get your ass over here and help me with these 20 fucking fighters coming, we can shoot at the Cap ship later ok."

 Lizzy then had to get fucking serious in a heartbeat, Lizzy flew right at the center of the enemy formation, flying like she was drunk, all over the place.

  Justin  Fires  on the Leader of the first Group.. he is rewarded  with  some Impact  splashes  and the   leader does a  Invert  Loop and takes  a Snap shot  at  Justin

 Angela is having trouble  with her  fighter  as she    tries to Follow  Lizzy  into the storm  of enemy fighters

 Lizzy  Heads  into  to the Middle  or  the swarming   fighters..  she has  a 'cone' of  weapons  fire   directed at her  from several fighters.   she  hits  the    leader for some  damage.

    As  Nikki   finished firing at the Camp ships, two  Cap ship  fighters, fire on her.

 Justin sideslipped and quickly adjusted his angle to retarget the F3 when the targetting he squeezed off a burst at the bogie.

Nikki used the cap ships uneven hull for some ground clutter. as she saw the 2 fighters coming in.  with some good evasion maneuvers she survived unscathed. "Trying Fire" she said "Got 2 on me and trying to evade the big one as well...hang in there" last thing she wanted was a cap ship guns bullet up her ass.  she banked a bit to turn on the 2 fighters.  She got sight of 1 (ooc: I'll call 'A', other 'B'), and now he and her would tango a bit.  when she'd get a bead on him she'd fire.

 Lizzy flew into the large group of fighters, she tried to evade all the bad guys but she got hit pretty hard. Lizzy just kept flying and shooting hoping the others could help her out.
