The whistle chimed as the doors of the lift opened and Admiral Reshmar stepped out onto the command deck of Illustrious. "Admiral on the bridge" shouted an officer standing beside the lift then came to a salute. Reshmar looked at the collection of officers standing and saluting him then nodded and dismissed them from attention "As you where" said Reshmar as he walked across the deck to the central holo display table. the group standing around the table was a collection of the highest ranking officers of the 3rd fleet. Each nodded as Reshmar neared then began preparing to brief him.
"Admiral, How was your nap sir?" ask Raymond mosses as the Mon Calamari acknowledged him. Reshmar rolled his eyes in a jovial expression then gave a retort. "Fitful if you must know. And your what ever you did the last five hours" said Reshmar a s a laugh sounded from the collection of men. It had been a long time since the entire command staff of the 3rd fleet had been in one place. They had joined the task force for this operation to witness the power of the new flagship Illustrious. Admiral Holt and General Forlon stood adjacent Reshmar grinning at his comment then both looking down ad the latest transmission was received from the battle probed in the azure system.
"Mapping is almost complete said The Blue skinned Chiss Stela'shlit'nuruodo. It was he who designed the weapons of the Illustrious and he who aided the SJO in developing mapping probes. Adding a mapping system to the standard probe droids was not a new Idea but Lash had some incite in how to optimize the system. The Chiss was looking at the screen with a flat expression then closed his eyes. Immediately Reshmar knew why the man had reacted to the new data. "Your people" said Reshmar tot he Chiss man standing beside him. Every man standing now looked to the Chiss with concerned eyes. "yes" answered Lash. It has been a long time since the One SIth ran me out of the Ascendancy. My people have come a long way since then. I have not." said the Chiss man opening his eyes again. "It is of no matter, They are my enemy today. I will morn their loss when appropriate." Said lash as he worked the console adjusting the display to center on the now identified Chiss Fleet.
"The probes have mapped the system and the greater battle and identified the optimal vector for our reversion entry. A gravity well is up and effecting the field here. We should come out of hyperspace here to the flank of the Chiss force outside the gravity well and proceed from this location." said Lash as he zoomed the system map in and highlighted an area. "From here we can put them between us and the Mandalorian forces main force and still be in a position to aid The other SIlver Jedi Forces if needed with very little re-positioning." said lash as the display zoomed out again to an image of the system. The image was nearly five minutes old at this point and if the task force was to make use of the data it needed to move now. Reshmar looked over the situation for a moment then spoke.
"We will proceed as per the plan. We jump in and engage the forces of the Chiss. once in system we will maintain communications silence for the initial strike then adjust as needed. Holt, you have the comm." said Reshmar as he turned to walk to a row of seats at the rear of the command deck. Forlon, Lash, and Mosses joined him and sat in the seats and strapped in. they watched as admiral Holt went about preparing the force to jump in.
"Officer of the watch, note I have cleared all forces and have a green light to jump." said Holt as he finished inputting his command code into the vessels command console. A man standing to his left nodded and input a command and note into the tactical console.
"Jump Commander, the ship is yours." said Holt as a man standing at the navigation's console nodded and turned to begin the pre-jump countdown. "Set the jump-clock to one minute" said the man waiting for a large display on the far wall to light up. "one minute set sir" said one of the navigation's officers. "Very well star countdown" said the officer then watched as the display began counting down. the clock slowly rolled down to zero then with a shutter of the deck below their feet the Illustrious, the task force and all of its attack craft jumped into the azure system.
A moment later the group of vessels reverted into real space just outside the gravity well facing the Chiss battlegroup. "Admiral, You have the Com" said Holt as he turned to face Reshmar. The Calamari stood and walked tot he command console and looked at the image now on the holo display. "Thank you admiral" said Reshmar to Holt as the man took up position next to him.
The force had trained for this for months now. Each captain knew his ships mission. Each squadron commander knew his squadrons mission. The forces of Task Force Illustrious went to work in silence. The angled hull of the Termagant moved into position under the Illustrious and opened fire from long range on the Chiss force. Her energy torpedo projectors flashing as they sent out cohesive energy at near instantaneous speed at the Chiss vessels. Supporting these were the massive Terminator Velocity cannons. Firing their massive 520 mm osmium core reactive warheads, each with a powerful reactive delay anti-matter charge. To the flank of Illustrious were the two Scythe-class assault cruisers Righteous and Indignant. Each sending blue and green streams of energy as they opened fire with their powerful Thresher batteries. Adding to the volley of fire was the Illustrious and her Terminator Velocity Cannons. around the formation the 39 squadrons of the task force formed up and took up defensive positioned awaiting incoming attack craft and corvettes.
Reshmar watched the furry of power reach out at the Chiss fleet with a tinge of sadness. He respected the people. He had come to harbor a place for Lash and his people and having to fight them now was bitter sweat. He knew the Chiss officer seated behind him would not question him and supported his actions but also knew he was disheartened by the appearance of his brothers and sisters and would have a weight on his soul for having to take part in the battle. He also felt for the Mandalorian's out among the battle, they too were a proud group, too proud most times but still a race worth respecting. Then he thought of his own people who would lose their lives here today. Losing people was part of the job he knew, but it did not make it any easier. For now he would try to save as many lives as he could and see to it they did as little damage as was needed to the Chiss fleet.
