A few days later

Max was working with Kelso on the large doors for the storage area, both of them where passing jokes about the administrator

The rumbles of what seamed to be the result of an explosion was felt station strongly shakes, drooping stored supplies and equipment off there shelves

“ EARTH QUAKE “ Kelso shouts while grabbing to a large pole next to him

“ calm down idiot, we are in space, follow me to the command deck quick “

as they where running to the command deck, panic spreads through out station, lights flickering on and off with each explosion, alerts for failing support systems where on.

Max’s dash into the command deck and sees a big mess, a few computers not functioning, communication officers trying to send out distress signals, and colonel Janet the administrator trying to regain control of the situation

Max goes directly for an empty terminal and sends out a message to his staff to report back damage status in their area

“ Administrator Janet, what is going on “

“ we are, we are under attack from a Kayteen cruiser “

Janet receives a few damage reports

“ we just lost our shields, how soon can you get it back online “ she shouts to an officer

“ not possible at this time, we are trying to get the life support system under control “

Kelso shouts “ I will try to get the shields back online, Ill be in touch via PDA “ and runs off

“BE CARFULE” Max shouts as he left the command deck

And then Max turns to Janet “Cant we lunch any fighters”

“We have a wing but no pilots, the pilots where pulled out if here a few days ago”

“ aren’t any star destroyers close by ??”

“We have been sending distress signals since we detected the enemy 30 minutes ago but no response”

Max shocked by her statement " 30 minutes, why didn’t you sound the freakin alarm, or send a freakin distress single or some thing "

" the alarm malfunctioned and some one tampered with our long range radio "

Max got worried, he is the one who fixed the long range radio, then the Kayteen fighters pulled out

Colonel Janet screamed “Whats going on why are they pulling out "

Max didn’t like what he just sow, it’s an old Kayteen fighting tactic, Max replays “No, there just getting ready to send out a general to claim the kill, namely us "

“Give me clearance to fly, let me deal with them ” Janet surprised “Do you know how to pilot a light weight fighter??”

" there is no better time to learn then now " and turns around and dashes off to the hanger

On his way Max calls on his COM Device his two of his crew members, Kelso and Spirit Max reaches the hanger floor and sees spirit all ready in one of the small fighters and lunching, as Max was jumping in the light weight fighter that’s equipped with only two missile and very light laser blaster he sees Kelso running to his fighter

“ we just got contact from the Tigers Claw battle group, there in the vasinity and will be here shortly, you gotta buy us some serious time guys, good luck” Colonel Janet informed

Spirit quickly gets Max on her VDO" boss, it’s a lose situation here, all we have advantage is speed”

" I know but we have no choice or innocent people will die "

Kelso joins in the VDO conference " so whats the plan boss, Im getting a power surge from the curser, there gonna attack any second now "

Max arms his weapons and increases his speed “Ok people, here is the plan, stay a mile and a half behind me at full speed ”

Spirit arming her weapons and slowly accelerate behind Max “your gonna be an easy target for the guns not to mention the fighters” Max says “You worry about the fighters and ill worry about the guns"

Kelso his hands tremble pulling the acceleration lever “This better work boss, I got kids, to think about ”

" your not even married!! "

the three light fighters start to get closer to moving curser that is ready to engage, the Kayteen Heavy equipped fighters start to attack to give time for the cruiser to get in range and fire its main weapons at the Opus Beta

Max taking advantage of the speed in his light fighter, he manages to pass the enemy and attacks directly the cruiser and starts firing his laser on it

as spirit anticipated the heavy fighters quick response, two of them break formation and attack Max to brush him of the cruiser and at the same time, the cruisers guns starts firing at Max and Opus Beta, Max was maneuvering very will around the guns that where unable to target him and at the same time Max was firing his lasers on the cruisers guns which had a very strong laser shield, he was waiting for the right second, the second when the guns fire its shield weakens on that area

Max successfully destroys the first laser gun, explosion and debris started flying of the cruiser, Max threat to the cruiser increased, the rest of the laser guns began to target Max and two more Kayteen fighters joined the others to kill Max

Anticipated this will happen, Spirit quickly informs Max on the VDO screen “Max we cant cover you much longer four fighters are after you and one is now following Kelso and I..”

Max interrupts “go help Kelso, I will keep them company till the Tigers Claw arrive” Kelso wasn’t doing very will against the heavy fighter " I hope they get here, any time NOW will be nice " Max quickly contacts

then Max hears spirit shouting “ Kelso enemy on your tail, brake left ill take care of him ” Kelso cant see the Kayteen pilot behind him “ I CANT SHAKE HIM OFF MY ASS”

" Kelso hold on he is almost in my missile sight "

" I cant see him, I just lost my shields, the fighter can handle it "

" Kelso hold on, I got a lock and firing "

The Kayteen pilot fires his missile at Kelso right before Spirits missile destroys him, Kelso loses control of his fighter but ejects at the last minute before his fighter exploded

Spirit says “Max its just the two of us, I’m giving you cover now” successfully spirit manages to destroy one of the fighters following Max, giving him more room to destroy a few more laser gun, the cruiser ignores the attack and starts charging its main weapon to fire to destroy Opus Beta.

Spirit “Max, I’m coming closer, I will try to take the one on your tail out”

Max barely can speaks with her “spirit I have every thing under control stay away ”

Spirits disregards Max orders and goes closer to the fighter drawing the fire of the cruiser with it.

A big flashing light appears, the Tigers Claw and whats left of its battle group jumps out of hyperspace, but it didn’t launch fighters

" this is thunderhead mission control of the Tigers Claw, our launch bay malfunctioned, we need a few minutes to fire our main weapon, the target is still out of our guns reach "

" will hurry up before they do " Max shouts back as he takes another gun, and his radar picks a large energy charge " Thunderhead, the cruiser is in firing position do some thing " the only cruiser next to the tigers claw started to move in an attempt to catch up with the Kayteen cruiser
