Sortie [Day 7, Early Evening]

Postby Chase » Wed Jun 20, 2018 11:21 am

With everything going on, one could hardly allow the security of the base to go unchecked. Taking to the skies again Chase's day was far from over as she launched with other Republic pilots intent on scouting the area for any signs they might detect from the air.

"Good havin' ya Qyen," Chase said over comms, glancing around the pit. Eyes flicking between her many instruments to both fly and scan. Of course T was with her but she liked to be a part of it all the same. "Just glad we can do this from up here. I do not envy the guys on the ground, gettin' their boots in it. See anything of interest yet?"

"Of course ma'am. That is some nasty terrain and weather, I don't envy any of them," she responded.

"You know you can relax, right Qyen?" Chase asked, honestly curious. "Unless this is you relaxed and if this is you relaxed we really need to get you a drink or something."

“I am not sure what you mean ma’am,” she replied. “Just maintaining normal alertness and attentiveness?”

"Alright, alright, I'm pushing up the wrong tree again," Chase said mostly to herself but that didn't stop it from transmitting. "We'll just keep to that then. Don't think I need to tell you to keep your eyes open here," taking her Craft in for a lower sweep along some tree tops she kept an eye out for anything of notable interest. Openings in the layers that might reveal locations of activity.

It was a sea of green waving leaves and branches, thick enough one could probably walk on them… maybe. It sure looked that way as they skimmed over the massive trees. The rain was constant and the winds treacherous and twisting.

"I'm gettin' nothing over here Qyen, you?" Chase radioed, checking her readouts one more time to see if T7-B8 picked up anything.

“Clear thus far, though from the Intelligence report, we are at least 1500 kilometers in any direction from any major city,” she replied calmly.

“Lots of storm and rain, could do without that, ma’am.”

"Whole lotta no-" Chase paused as her eyes caught something on the reading.

Sensors are picking up a craft transiting from orbital space into atmospheric. The ship cannot be identified, the computer tries but cannot get a match or identify the ship as friend, so it is listed as unknown.

"T.. can you work me a trace on that signal?" Chase asked, receiving a few beeps in acknowledgement as it tried to work it's droid magic. "See if you can find who they're talking to. Anything actionable, got it?" Chase said, followed by further acknowledgement from her partner in crime.

Now if he could manage it, that'd be somethin' else entirely.

No communications, the craft is silent, at least signal wise as it streaks towards the surface.

"I mean.. uh trajectory, how about one of those?" Chase said, and T7-B8 responded with a few annoyed beeps, an affirmation, and then a few more beeps that were probably along the lines of 'Why do you do this to me?'

"Orders ma'am, should we intercept the unknown craft? I am relaying our situation to Command," Naya responded.

"Give Command the heads up, we're going to intercept to identify. Once we have an idea of what we're dealing with we'll proceed according to the situation, follow my lead," Chase said, moving her craft into an intercept course with t7-B8's updated information.

The fighters enter an intercept course with the ship. It does not seem to be slowing down, and in fact seems to be speeding up as it descended into the region known as the Blight. As she closes on the ship she can see it has a black metallic frame and a design that makes it similar to Imperial craft but no visible markings.

She feels a sense of dread creeping up her spine.

OOC: Cool or Discipline versus Fear 4 (1 Challenge die + 3 Difficulty Dice), flip a Destiny for the Fear check for Chase for the difficulty.

Naya has nerves of steel.
Naya + Fear: 1eP+2eA+1eC+3eD 1 success, 6 threat, 1 Triumph

Imperial Design, lone target, no markings and that damned tingle coming up her spine. Chase'd been around long enough to hear all sorts of stories. Stories enough that turned the heat up in the cockpit and shook her nerves.

Still.. "Qyen, I don't like the feeling of this. We get confirmation on identity and then we get out quick, got it?" she radioed and tried to calm her hands enough to fly. This wasn't good.

Day 7, Early Evening | Fear 4, [Destiny Upgrade] matched with Cool: 2eP+2eC+2eD 3 failures, 3 advantage, 1 Despair

There is a nagging voice in the back of her mind that said, “This is death… death has come to Bankor, all that has come before pales in comparison.”

She feels her heart clench and then her sight goes black and dark. She is in a dark place, she is a child and looming over her is a dark figure, a man by the square in the shoulders and the powerful build… then there was crimson light and the sound of energy crackling, and then the crimson light was raised and brought down and she felt the world crack and people burn…

Then she heard the excited beeps of her droid and her wingmate saying frantically, “Chase pull up!” Branches were battering her ship as she as careening downward through the brush and trees to the twilight covered earth below alarm klaxons bleating like a child loudly.

OOC: Piloting Space check at hard with an upgrade due to Fear and Upgrade due to Destiny flip. Setback for weather and setback for thick tree canopy.

Chase snapped to, hands flying to the controls and working her magic. Pulling up as hard as she could...
