A voice spoke up "Jumping to hyper drive" And a thrust of the fleet and they were off. "This could be a trap sir" A man said to which Dami said "Could be..But its fun to find out.." He said grinning as he felt the ship jolting out of hyper space in the debris ridden area. He rose looking around. They took no more than a hour with how close they were. "Lets see to the ship" He said as the scanners picked up for it as visual scans were commenced.

I have your distress call and coordinates on my way.

While working beneath the large gaping hole in his hull, he become somewhat acustomed to the view of the stars up above his head - it was almost like when he was piloting, save for the fact that all the oxygen could get out through the unprotected hole. Therefore, it was a bit of a shock when after a little while of working, he glanced upwards to see no stars, but rather the drab grey color of a starship hull blocking out the entire hole, giving him some idea of just how large the ship was. "Well, we've got company."

"I'll bring weapon systems online." The bloodthirsty droid began firing up initial systems, only to have Karth come sailing past, using advantage of the lack of gravity to travel quickly through the door into the cockpit. He grabbed hold of the main console, halting his momentum while with his other hand he killed weapon systems and charged the sensor jammers. "Damned reactor reboot. Come on!" He slammed the console and the jamming hardware sent out a pulse towards the massive ship. The jammer was heavy military grade software, but for a Flagship even the high tech sensor jammers might not block out their software. "NOW we can get the weapons online. We're not about to jump to hyperspace, so we might as well go out fighting if they try to take us. Oh, turn the comms back online too. We'll see what they have to say. Maybe they're friendlies, about time the Alliance showed up."

The droid took a little too much eagerness in bringing weapons online, then plugged in to the navigation console where through a series of jury rigs the droid could control all the weapon systems at once. Thus, as small as it was compared to that of the Rebel Flagship, the armament of the Solus Verde locked on to the vessel.

With the comm systems back online, Karth also picked up the call coming in from the Wookiee. While he himself could not understand a word of it, Vex could. "There's a wookiee says he's coming to say hello. Hmm...something tells me we've got it covered though." The droid mused with a chuckle, glancing upwards at the massive ship.

Karth, a little alarmed that Vex might do something crazy like fire off a warning shot at the gigantic vessel, moved to the comm unit.

"This is Karth Veshok of the Solus Verde, to the Captain of the vessel off the Starboard bow." He paused a minute, considering how to continue the message, then grinned ruefully. "State your intentions or prepare to be boarded." The joke might be appreciated by someone in the Alliance, and if it was Imperial, well, he was dead either way. Switching to an encrypted channel, he sent a second message, this time to the Wookie.

"This is Karth Veshok of the Solus Verde. Your message has been recieved. Be advised, sensors are offline and a massive ship just jumped into the system. Be cautious on approach, they might not be friendly."

He would wait for a reply. The shields and weapons ready if needed. He would Stare at the console waiting for an reply. He looked to his crew, the Marines on deck standing blasters ready. A few of the control people scrambling to do their jobs. He would then nod "Prep the boarding tube..Don't initiate boarding yet however..." He made clear to them. He then looked back to the console. "So what will it be captain Vashok?" He said kindly as he had his hands doubled behind his back. The rebel ship ready for a surprise attack of course.

"Captain Scott, I appreciate the offer to join you on the Taren - quite the vessel, might I add. As much as I like floating around out here, I don't really look forward to what would happen if my oxygen ran out before we got to your destination. I am leaving a droid behind to continue minor repairs while en-route. He's got enough ordinance on him right now to equip a small merc army, but don't you or your men be alarmed. He won't be attacking anyone today." Yet another 'Awwww', this one that would sound through the comm. "He was hoping you would be the Imperial Flagship. I think he intends to harpoon the Sith Emperess someday." he said with a light laugh. Making his way back into the cargo bay where the docking hatch was, he called up through the ship's comms "Alright, I'm ready on my end." Behind him, the tank of a droid positioned himself in clear view of anyone on the other side.

"Vex, once I'm gone, send a message to the Wookiee pilot en-route. Inform him that the cruiser is an Alliance vessel and we will be docking with them until further notice."

The droid's message would be as follows:

Dear Wookiee Pilot,

The ship is with the Rebel Alliance.

Go find some Imperials somewhere else, if you're looking to fight. Otherwise, feel free to come onboard.

Instantly Kael was by the comm officer's side, looking over he shoulder at the screen. "Is it the Ardent Way?"

"No, sir. It is another ship. It says that they have only 3 hours of air left. If we left now, we could be there in 1 hour." The Communications Officer looked up at Kael. "What are your orders sir?"

Kael stepped back, deep in thought. He wanted to wait for Merrick, but if this other ship was in trouble, he couldn't just ignore it. He looked up, suddenly aware that the bridge had gone quiet.

"Helm, set course for the distress signal, but do not respond. It could be a trap and we are in no condition to fight a slugging match. Bring us to the edge of sensor range of the ship, but no closer.

"Weapons, get the crew to their guns and have shields ready to go as soon as we drop from hyperspace. I want us hot and ready."

The bridge was suddenly a riot of activity as the crew complied with orders. The bow of the ship turned on its axis, causing the space outside to rotate in front of them. Moments later, the stars elongated as the Valorous jumped to Warp.

Kael went back to his command chair and sat down. Quietly, he was alone with his thoughts. "I'm sorry Merrick. I'll find you soon.", he thought. The vision of her filled his mind. Even now he could see her shimmering blue eyes and blonde hair. She also had a smile that could melt a Sith's heart... and a mischevious streak that got her and him into trouble when they were little. Even after the Jedi Training, Kael was sure that she hadn't lost it.

It would be an hour until he was at the coordinates, just enough time for Kael to get some exercise.

"Zeke, you're in charge until I get back. Comm me when we are within 10 minutes of the location."

"Aye sir."

Kael left the bridge, heading toward the aft cargo bay. That is where an impromptu sparring area had been set up. It would do his some to go fight and get some of his aggression out.

You are in good hands with the Rebel Alliance, however going up against a Imperial is not my cup of tea at the moment. Us Wookiees are not that crazy. Good luck, and stay safe, feel free to contact me anytime. Along with the message, the Wookiees contact information is attached.

"Hold here helm and ready jump coordinates bound for deep space. Tactical, ready weapons and shields. If we can't escape, we may have to play on their on field. Ready the fighters... just in case. Sensors, what do you have?"

It was just a second as the sensors scanned the ship.

"Sir, it looks to be the Rebel Flagship. Shall we contact it?"

"By all means, open a channel."

The Communications Officer pushed a few buttons and the nodded, indicating that it was open.

==:: This is Captain Rhinn Vharen of the Valorous, requesting to speak with Admiral Scott of the Taren ::==

Kael waited for a response from his Commanding Officer.

He stared to the screen for a moment before he would wave a hand to a man approaching. "Not now...Come back in a moment..." He told the man politely who nodded and saluted. Then shuffled away. Dami stayed focused. He was tall. 6'3 and heavy, 239 lbs of muscle. His elegant white robes a sign of allegiance of the lightside. His saber on his hip a haunting hilt. Almost evil looking. Quite a contrast. Dami was famous. He defeated the DP before. Defeated the entire Kie race alone... Twice... He saved many lives. He was the youngest master. And a weaponsmaster at that. Once a guardian..One of the few considered a true guardian. He faced several sith lords. Only defeated by one of them... He had a impressive resumes. And that was just the start.

As he stepped into the hall of the flagship, his comm unit chimed. "Captain..." his droid piped up. "...another cruiser has jumped from hyperspace. Looks like an old Imperial cruiser. Shall I open fire?" Karth chuckled, shaking his head back and fourth. "No Vex, something tells me Admiral Scott would have torn them to pieces by now. If they are on our side, we've got a nice little fleet going here. About time the Rebels got their act together..." He said, bringing his comm unit right up to his lips and murmuring it under his voice so none of the ship's nearby crew would hear. Looking up to them, he addressed them. "Thank's for the rescue. I'd like to speak to the Admiral in person, if you could direct me towards the Bridge."

Kael nodded to his helmsmen to bring the Valorous in closer. As soon as he heard the voice and saw the Jedi, he knew who he was dealing with.

"I was responding to the distress call, but I see that they are well taken care of." Kael smiled a bit and then his face grew serious. "The previous assignment was to deliver weapons and supplies to the Ardent Way. We were jumped by the Admonisher and the Requiem before I could complete my delivery. The Ardent Way jumped out and we blind jumped, but have not heard from the ship. It is possible that we have enemy forces on the move along the Permelian Trade Route."
