Gillian had kept the P-Wings at a similar distance. It was medium range for the remaining E-Wing's proton torpedoes, but that couldn't be helped."We aren't taking any more chances with this." The captain broadcasted to all the fighters and the shuttle. "Fire on my mark." As soon as the shuttle and the three Republic fighters were clear of the deathtrap of a suicidal frigate, already accellerating, the fighters, bombers, and frigate opened fire. Proton torpedoes from six E-Wings; short-range blaster fire from Zenith, Istara, and Khyber; bomber-grade proton missiles from the three P-Wings; the massive capital ship proton missiles from Taelros; and even the frigate's heavy turbolasers fired at extreme range.Pouring every erg of energy into a suicide run, with no concern for keeping a crew alive, the ship withstood a massive amount of pounding, and accellerated faster than most of you would have believed possible (Saricia, though, had a fair notion that it was quite possible, and that in a similar configuration, a Sacheen-class frigate would have been even more deadly). It wasn't enough, though. ISS Shrike survived the first volley of missiles and blaster fire. It even survived the second. But as it entered point-blank missile range of Taelros, the third volley blasted the Nebulon-C into ashes.</blockquote>
