Aoura entered the Black Stalker and headed straight for the cockpit. She put the earpiece for communicating with the flight controller i her left ear and began going through the checklist for take off. It wasn't a very long one. She gave her pilot code to control as well as their destination but not the reason for their journey. She simply referred to Master Sharktee for further details. A few seconds of silence later she was cleared for take off.<br/>"This is your pilot speaking, please be seated for take off," she said over the ship's intercom and smiled as she then pulled the ramp into the ship and closed the doors.<br/>She switched the engines on and released the gravity anchors.<br/><br/>The hangar doors opened approximately 300 feet in front of the now hovering ship.<br/>"Ready or not. Here we go," she called out over the intercom and pushed the accelerator forward and the ship took off. She waited until they were clear of the mountain into which the Academy's hangar was built before punching the next stage of the accelerator.<br/>"Once we've cleared the atmosphere well really see what this beauty can do."<br/>She was already enjoying herself but could hardly wait for what was to come once they had nothing but empty space around them.
