The Lambada-class shuttle ascended Almania's atmosphere and headed for the NAISD Keerow.Vonta Horn was at the controls,she concentrated on piloting and didn't look at Admiral Logan,who was sitting next to her.
"It's for the best Vonta,Myrkr is better.The Shipyards are already there and we aren't dead."
The Lambada-class shuttle landed in the Keerow's hangar.Adm.Logan stepped out of the shuttle and saluted to al the gathered troops.
He quickly made his way to the bridge and ordered the Keerow to prepare to go into hyperspace.

Vonta was a bit purturbed by the turn of events. She never liked to run from a fight. But as a jedi peace was the order of the day. Well Xete Lore well like this turn of events. The old man was obbsessed with that project of his.
"Yes sir," she answered reluctantly to the Admiral.

As The Keerow exited hyperspace over Myrkr, Logan smiled at The New Alliance Fleet and The Shipyards that hung over the planet.He turned to Neychev and Vonta.
"Everything is ready?"
"Yes,sir."
"Good"
Neychev then glanced at his readout casually but did a double-take when he saw what was on it.
"Sir! a small fleet is breaking orbit on the other side of Myrkr and are closing fast!"
Logan sighed and looked at his tactical readout.
"Hmm...6 Nebulon-B frigates...a few Corellian Action bulk cruisers....1 Firespray-class ship and 3 squadrons of
Headhunters.
This will be almost too much fun.
"Have The Serena and the Restoration scramble out of the Enemy Fleet's way and reform behind them once they pass."
Logan turned to Vonta and smiled.
"Your in charge of the fighter squadrons"

Vonta nods to the admiral. Taken a shuttle she rendezvous with the The New Alliances own Nebula B-2 frigate she had named Saber Strike. From there she can maneuver the ships and fighters to her satisfaction. It is not as fun as being in the thick of it but she well manage. Transporting in a lamda class shuttle to the ship.
Nebula B-2 frigate :saber strike
4 tie defenders
4 X-wings
4 phantoms
2 tie schimters
2 B-wings
4 A-wing
2 correlian unships-shock, cunncussion
Assassin Class Corvette-Justice
6 X-wings
1-Assassin Class Corvette-Light runner
6 schimters
1 dinefet cruiser-shadow light
6 yt-1300s
12 squads tie fighters
8 squads schimters
8 squads tie bombers
...6 Nebulon-B frigates...a few Corellian Action bulk cruisers....1 Firespray-class ship and 3 squadrons of
Headhunters.
The battle had begun by the time that vonta reached the bridge. The fighters were all out and arrayed in standard formations. The enemy was in a desperate gamble to try and attack them. The Frigates are trying to scatter the fleet by rushing their center. They know that they can not win but they well cause alot of damage in the mean time though.
::I well just have to prevent that from happening.:: she thinks.
"Strike force (the name of her fighter squads on her ship) Form up on the Saber strike. It is up to the light ships to prevent any major damage to the destroyers from that fleet of light ships. Ties 1-8 cover the star destroyers if any of those Z-95s get past us. Schimters and bombers 1-4 form up on shock and concussion squads 5-8 hold positions. Assasasins and Yt-s form on the Saber strike." Vonta does not think like a admiral she thinks like a pilot so she manipulates her ships in such a manner.
Knowing that the ships well try and use their fighters in the most desperate ploy of all fighter maneuvers a head to head assault she has them countered. Saber strike and the Assassin class corvettes fire interference for their own fighters. And take fire from a enemy frigates that follow the fighters. Allowing them to start the fight organized while the enemies were scrambled to avoid being shot. The fighters weave and bob among each other. The Saber strikes forces have the upper hand in being organized this way they can pick of the fighters more easily. A-wings prove faster then the head hunters taking them out with sheer speed. The X-wings the retaliatives of the Z-95 prove their superiority by being move maneuverable in battle. While Defenders dance in and out of all of the smaller battles in the dog fight. Taking out several fighters with Ion canons, scattering others with proton torps. And proving why it is one of the galaxies best fighters.
8 Schimters and 2 B-wings cut through the battle covered by the others ships. They unleash a volley of missiles that takes one of the Cornelian cruisers out of commission. Destroying the front half of the ship in a strife run. They come about to make a run on another one.
The Gunships cover the Schimters and the bombers that trail them on route to 3 of the Frigates. The 6 Yt-1300s take fire to distract the gunners from the gunships. Allowing them to approach with shield intact. At only a ship length from the frigates the Fighter squads unleash a deadly attack of hundreds of concussion missiles and proton torpedos. The attack cracked one of the ships in half.
That was more then sufficient the smaller ships never had a chance to get into close quarters with the heavy ships now the destroyers have the advantage. The skirmishes among the smaller ships allow a opening for the larger ships to do their work

TNA fleet manifest:
2 ISD's
2 VSD's
1 Nebulon-B frigate
2 Correllian Gunships
Fighter complement-unsure
IC:
While Vonta controlled the squadrons of fighters,JediGhost controlled the capital ships.
The enemy Nebulon-B's were the biggest capital ships that they had.Logan smiled because the enemy Nebulon's were only attacking The Keerow and the Retribution...
...and leaving the Serena and the Restoration entirely alone.
"Admiral Logan to The Serena and Restoration,please commence attack."
The two VSD's came up behind the enemy fleet and opened up with their turbolasers.

"Sir! The lead frigate is breaking off and attacking the Restoration!"
"Thank you Captain.Have the Retribution break off and flank the enemy and have the Serena flank on the other side."
"Yes,sir"
While the two Star Destroyers moved to flank the enemy fleet The Keerow pounded the front of the enemy fleet the Restoration finished off the lead ship and moved to pound the enemy from the rear.
" Keerow to the Restoration,you may fire when ready.Captain .......now.
Suddenly proton bombs and torpedos materialized right out of the depths of space and slammed
into one of the Nebulon-B's.
"It's shields are down" Neychev reported.
"Excellent.Tell the Denafet to come back to reload.
"Yes,sir!"

::show off:: Vonta thinks as the Dinifet cruiser blows a Frigate to peices.
Back to bussiness. "Scimters, bomber squads 5-8 commence your run on the rumaining Battle cruiser." The fresh squad responds with a heavy stifeing run. Hundreds on missles hit the last cruiser. Droping their sheilds and destroying the front portion of the ship. The saber strike made the final blow turning all batterys on the ships.
Looking at the freind foe screen that represented the fighter battle. Red represented the enemy blue represents allies. Only the blow blips remained.
Opening comunication to the command ship. "All fighter threat eliminated sir."

"Good job Saber Strike."
"Sir! the enemy commander is hailing!"
"Let's see it"
The holo projector at the front of the room flared to life.
"I am Captain Kumas,I command this smuggling fleet and Myrkr is ours."
"I'm afraid not Captain.I am Admiral Logan of The New Alliance War Fleet,and Myrkr...is no longer under your control"
"We will see"
Logan motioned and the holo transmission was cut.
"Engage tractor beams and charge Ion Cannons.Prepare to fire upon my order"

Vonta engaged Kumas on a different channel.
Smileing, "I do recommend sir that you disengage now you are out numbered and out gunned. Your fleet, or rather what remains of it," She makes sure to add that little detail. Her fighters had slaughtered or injured all of his head hunters. " Admiral logan is not a pacient man. I give him less then thirty seconds before he calls you with a statement that he well eradicate what is left of your forces. You have two choices sir stay and lose every thing or leave and keep what is left to start a new."
The Captain merely glares at vonta. And with out a word cuts tranmission on that frequency. Vonta leans back in her command chair.
:: Just like Good trooper bad trooper like when I was a kid.::
she reminices to her self. :: your turn to play bad trooper Admiral ::
