[QUOTE="ragboy, post: 1635673, member: 4151"] [b]Chapter 1 : Flight of the Polestar[/b] Chapter 1 - Flight of the [I]Polestar[/I] [B]What Has Come Before[/B] When the Trade Federation blockaded Naboo, our heroes lived and worked in the small city of Gheva. The fear and uncertainty devastated the local economy, destroying Sia-Lann Wezz' speeder repair shop. The invasion hit Gheva just as hard as the rest of the planet, and the four friends vowed to fight the Trade Federation as part of the resistance. After several missions against the occupiers, Master Wei-Lun was murdered in his home by a group not believed to be part of the invasion force. At least one Jedi led the group, though the heroes were not able to confront the assailants since the battle for Naboo had begun in earnest. Wei-Lun's home, the only home Sia-Lann and Rann I Kanu had ever known, was destroyed in a droid ship strafing run on the city center. Wounded, but determined, the group decided to leave Naboo, seeking answers about the Trade Federation's invasion and the murder of the Jedi Master. After liberating Arani Korden's ship, the Polestar, from the city spaceport, the heroes' Galaxy-spanning adventure began... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= “The shield be down, sah!” Toba groaned, flipping switches across the [I]Polestar[/I]’s control panel. Laser blasts from circling droid ships sizzled past the ducking and weaving starship. “I know, Gungan!” Arani Korden said through gritted teeth, as she jammed the control stick to the starboard. Droid ships streaked across their view as the spinning vessel lost some speed in Naboo’s upper atmosphere. “I have them!” Rann I Kanu announced over the intercom. A chain of guided missiles streaked over the cockpit of the aging freighter, splitting into a wavering star pattern as they chased down evading ships. Arani guided the Polestar through the gap, now clogged with flak, and engaged the astrogate computer. “Hold them for just a few more seconds, Rann!” Arani yelled. “Shield back up in da rear,” Toba said, grinning and shaking his floppy ears in delight. His eyes bugged suddenly and he wailed: “Mudda ship!” “Holy living shiiii....!” Arani screamed, her hands operating the controls on their own. The [I]Polestar[/I] fishtailed and its rear careened off of the side of the droid mothership, spraying parts of both vessels in a fiery display. The control panel lit up with various errors, and alarms wailed throughout the cockpit. “Weapons are down, Arani,” Rann barked. “Calculation complete,” Toba said, huffing, and reached to punch the hyperdrive. “Wait!” The stars blurred and the besieged planet of Naboo receded to nothing, as Arani read the tiny display on her ancient astrogation computer: [B]Calculations Complete. Prime Calc Error 10x00x06[/B]. [/QUOTE]
