Location: Kessel. _
Target: Grummet, Sahrah. _
A black A-wing tore through the atmosphere of Kessel, streaking out into the void of space. Seconds later, red needles of light pricked the darkness, stabbing at the vessel and its pilot.
"They just don't quit, do they?" Sahrah Grummet launched a countermeasure as several missiles and torpedoes brushed by. "God, that was close."
Her comm unit crackled and the grisly voice of a man came on, "Surrender or die, Grummet, we've no time for your games."
"Decisions, decisions. Die now or later. Are those the only options?" she charged her lasers, stalling for time with chatter.
"You realize we have your escape vector blocked off," the pirate captain said smugly.
"If I'm going down, I'm taking you with me---or at least a huge chunk of creds out of your account," she turned off the comm and brought the A-wing about, aiming its wedge-shaped nose at the pirate ship.
Lasers poured out towards her, but she dodged them with precision and finesse. "Always have a girl's touch when you do things, pisses the men off more" Sahrah thought to herself. "Time for surgery." She set her lasers to dual-fire and pumped shield energy into them and her engines, pulling a rather suicidal stunt as her ship screamed towards the pirate vessel. When she was in range, she squeezed the trigger and her lasers beat at the sides of the pirate's ship, gnawing a nice hole in their shields, then their hull. Once she'd gotten an opening she started launching concussion missiles, without solid locks, she was too close for them to not miss. They pounded into the hull and Sahrah prepared to cut her speed and dip underneath the slender body of the frigate. Signals and alarms started screaming in her ears and red lights flashed everywhere. The captain had anticipated her move, the frigate was rotating itself, bringing its engines to bear. The wash blew over her ship, flaming her shields and blowing an engine. The canopy blew and her ejector seat launched. Sahrah closed her eyes and prepared for the cold black...
((OOC: if a frigate seems like a pretty powerful ship for pirates to have---it does to me too (so you're not crazy for thinking so)---all i could think of at the moment---please change it as you go along---i can edit this post accordingly. also---this is to introduce me and kas katta in as characters---so please leave leniency for us))
