Fel remained quiet as Kya prattled on, chiding her about giving to the poor, her fingers, or how she wasn’t the woman’s type. Only a few more yards to the starport, the two would soon be off planet. Once she rendezvoused with her brother, Fel would give him a piece of her mind for getting her stuck in this mess. Or that arrogant Jedi.<br/><br/>The two women weaved through the quarter until they finally found Mya’s ship. The girl looked ecstatic as she called out her friend’s name, but something was off. Fel froze in place when she saw the stormtroopers. The former captain heard and saw everything taking place, but it felt like watching a holo, or she was out of her own body. Shots fired. Did Mya shoot first? Fel stood on the tarmac, mere feet from the ramp. Blaster fire erupted all around her. Mya was already on the ramp, charging the troopers. A bolt struck Fel in the shoulder. Another whizzed by her head.<br/><br/><i>Wake up! Wake up!</i><br/><br/>Fel jumped behind a nearby crate for cover as the rain fell harder. She inhaled once. They wouldn’t capture her. She wouldn’t end up like Lyra. The Corellian ran from cover, mirroring Mya’s movements from seconds before. She fired once, twice, three times. Three troopers went down. The woman moved up the ramp. Mya had taken care of the rest. In the distance, the Imperial klaxon blew, alerting other troopers.<br/><br/>“Get this heap out of here! More are coming!” Fell yelled as she moved the bodies off the ramp. The roar of the rain masked the steady footsteps of troopers heading their way. Fel fired, forcing the early arrivals to seek cover. Finally, she ran into the ship, smashing the lift button and raising the ramp back into place. Entering the ship’s main hold, Fel noticed how small it was. It looked larger from the outside.<br/><br/>Pain bit into her shoulder as Fel climbed into the upper gunner seat. She and Mya would have words later over her actions or lack thereof at the port, but first, they had to escape Cynda. As Fel checked over the instruments, some familiarity came back to her. No stranger to a laser cannon, most of her experience was with air-to-surface battles. Hopefully, the Empire would not pursue them into space, and she just made a fool of herself, but Fel wasn’t taking any chances.<br/><br/>Once in the air, a pair of TIEs were already in the air, veering toward their position and firing. Charey returned fire and missed. “Fraggit!” Adjusting the guns, she had to adapt. Fel was used to slow-moving targets and giving orders. The TIEs broke formation, attempting to flank Kya’s ship. Fel locked on to the craft and fired the cannon, striking the starboard wing. The Imperial vessel flipped end over end until it spun out into space, exploding a few seconds later. “I think I’m getting the hang of this!”<br/><br/>The remaining craft pulled back, firing on the courier. Reinforcements were on the way. Mya’s ship shuddered. Fel took a breath, locked in on the TIE, this time dead center. Again, she fired. The TIE blew into a thousand pieces.<br/><br/><div class="bbCodeSpoiler">
