Help is On the Way [Day 4, Late Morning]

Postby Chase » Mon Jun 11, 2018 2:03 am

Alarms rung through the strike force base, pilots set about to engage and Chase had her people gathered. Running together onto the field they split to their respective vehicles. Chase's Spitfire already had T7-B8 loaded into his socket, waiting to get into action. Slipping her helmet over her head Chase climbed the ladder and slipped down into the seat of the Spitfire. With the quick final checks before launch completed she fired up the engines and was off.

Swiftly the Spitfire was brought into the skies above Aurek Base. Once there she merely waited for her compatriots to join her in the sky before racing off to the aid of others.

Garth was only a few strides behind her, helmet tucked under one arm as he made a beeline for his spitfire cursing at all the droids scurrying underfoot as they headed to the ships they were co-piloting as well.

"If'n ah trip over one of y'all, it's straight in tha scrap heap wi ya." He threatened hollowly before he reached his ladder and scrambled up into the cockpit.

"Black 4 got y' six, Tenant Chase." He called out over the comms channel as he too blasted off into the sky.

Jax had been in the hangar working on some things for the midnight when he heard the alarms going off he rushed to see what was going on. Then someone saw his dog tags hanging and yelled "all hands! Don't care if yer off duty or what get your ass in a bird." Jax smirked and snapped a salute before running off and finding a flight suit and strapping himself into a spitfire.

He took off and noted the other pilots in a waiting pattern. "You kids ready for this old man to show you a trick or two?" He said over the comms with a chuckle as he slid into formation with them.

"First try keepin' up with us old man," she replied back with a grin before launching into a tried and practiced manner of speaking to convey their intent.

"Alright people, we've got word of some Tin-Cans interupting out efforts in the sleeziest ways they know how. They needed us there yesterday, so punch it," she said, signed off and prepared her ship to jump up a few notches of speed.

[OOC Note: Depending on how far they're going, chase is gonna bump her speed up as high as they can move together to arrive at a suitable AO]

"Old man huh? Hope that arthritis don' affect yer steering." Garth jokes as he casually barrel rolls through the sky.

Chase wrote:"Alright people, we've got word of some Tin-Cans interuppting out efforts in the sleeziest ways they know how. They needed us theregarding yesterday, so punch it," she said, signed off and prepared her ship to jump up a few notches of speed.


"Now them's mah kind of orders." Garth confirms as he caresses the throttle.

Jax smirked listening to the banter and matched Garth roll for roll "I think I'll be alright." He listened to Chase as she spoke he was a more experienced pilot but she was the ranking officer so she had point here.

His eyes focused up and his features settled a bit more coolly but there was a fire in his eyes that was hard to miss if they could see him. Being back in a fighter was resurfacing some long forgotten feelings. "Orders received." he said as he began to push the machine as fast as he could.

(OOC: Jax can also push it up to speed 7 with supreme FT)

The droid picked up a communication message, “This is the Resistance, we are in critical need of aid, can anyone lend assistance?”

"Damn it all..." she says, thinking it all through. With the amount of coverage the other fights were getting... no, these people were most definitely going to be forgotten if she turned a blind eye to this. Damnit. Damnit. Just had to hope that everyone else did their parts well without them... "We're reading you Resistance, we've got three Spitfires loaded and ready for a fire. Send us the details of your situation now."

While she waited for the response, she radioed over to the others, "Listen up gents. We've got a distress call from the Resistance on the scanners. Don't have the details yet but if we ignore this... well, we might be the only ones even listening out here. Might even be that those Tin-Can bastards had this all planned out, but they weren't expecting us. If you've got concerns, voice them now, or forever hold your peace."

"M' only concern is that whoever we's rescuin' aint fittin in here on mah lap. Don' forget ta radio fer a transport to meet us after we play hero."

Garth cranks up the tunes as he gets into the right sort of mental state to prepare himself for some conflict.

The message just repeats three times and then there are coordinates listed.

"Jax, sorry, but that's already two against one," she said having kept her ear for the message. With T determining the direction of the coordinates to aid with the many tasks set before them. "So I hope you're ready to try and save some lives that might need us over everyone else today, cause that's what we're doing. Check your panels, T should be sending you the course corrections... now."

With the corrections input, Chase lead the formation off to their new destination.

The destination takes them to a narrow chasm, where a speeder transport vehicle is smoking in the middle of the black sand dunes. The vehicle looks like it was subjected to some kind of attack, but without a closer look that was about all they could tell.

"Someone's gotta take a closer look, you two keep to the skies and keep me covered I'm gonna go in and find out what happened. Keep an ear to your comms, if something happens come save me," she said before switching her outbound communications off.

"T, keep a constant scan of the area. I wanna know as soon as something pops on your scanner, alright?" Chase asked ad got the confirmatory beeps she was looking for.

"You'll get no complaint from me" Jax says over the comms. "Lets go see what the problem is."

As they see the remains of the speeder Jax frowns "you sure you want to go down alone Chase? This screams trap to me, distress message, disabled vehicle, no one in sight. Something isn't right."

"No, I really don't but we don't have any better options. We gotta go down there to make sure but it doesn't make sense to risk two of these babies on the ground."

"I'll be fine... just keep the engines roaring and be ready for anything, alright."

On the approach T7-B8 offered his worried beeps. Chase bit her lip and set it down in a nearby location clear enough to land.

Popping the hatch she slipped out atop the craft and took a look around, "Getting anything on your scanner T?"

"I see you!" she called out, giving whoever it was that little bit of relief that help had arrived. Clambering down off her Spitfire she quick jogged over toward the craft. Following the sight of the person she felt she saw.

Jax maintained a tight circle over the scene keeping his eyes on the situation below and his ear alert to any notifications from his sensor array ready to ground the bird and help the lieutenant if things went sideways.
