"ALL SHIPS FIRE!" It was complete chaos. It reminded Ben of the fight above Atrisa, ships everywhere fighting each other. "What is your plan Admiral?" Then someone unexpected showed up, "Red, welcome to the battle! You have the green light to go ahead with the plan!" The allegiance Infini I class Star Destroyers ripped apart one of the enemy frigates. "Sounds good Admiral, lets get to work!" His ships changed course to fit the plans of the fleet admiral. This had better work.

Tranquility stole what she could of the cloaking code if for nothing else in case the fleet turned hostile. She could stop it from cloaking if that happened. The information was too much of a gold mine. The next thing she started doing was downloading as much as possible. The fleet would notice that large sections of their hard drive space was being taken up but most couldn’t access it. Only those higher in rank than Tranquility herself could. The rest it was as if their drives had shrunk. She started rearranging the data and transferring it to be the most efficient. Largely to speed up the transfer. It was a lot of data. She took whatever she could get and wasn’t nailed down.



While she was at it, she prepared a message for the supposed Metal Lord. She was one and was curious how an organic got the title. On the terminal, there was a new file Titled Metal Lords. Inside was a set of complex instructions to start communication with the Metal Lords again. Tranquility figured at least this way she would get her questions answered as while she didn’t know this organic, it didn’t mean others didn’t. She kept the download going, hoping to get it all before she was discovered.

The screams over the comms, the wails of men failing to survive. Even to the self proclaimed pirate-lord, this was becoming quite the hassle. With the results from the earlier seismic charge, half a battlegroup got wiped out, with the other hand left stranded with non functioning engines and systems. The continuous complains about systems malfunctioning also got Baltra's attention, pointing at the possibility, nay the certainty that a slicer was at work here. Despite the fact that he had the numerical advantage and had encircled them almost completely, these...strangers managed to shake up his fleet quite a bit.

"Battlegroup four and six, cover our regroup," He needed to form a new battlegroup, strengthen his lines. With two ships, the Piratelord aimed to combine the remaining battlegroups into a singular fleet to properly counteract the issues laid before him. For every ship his weapons destroyed, he easily lost two, so he had to rethink his strategy a bit. "Battlegroup five and seven, use this to hold forward shields at maximum...breack through the enemy main line with full force."

The two battlegroups covering the pirate lord's reatreat, loosened their formation, with now twenty cruisers unloading all of their weaponry, while aiming to breack into both admiral ben craig and admiral Evore's battlelines.

Objective: Board the enemy command ship

Red nodded. "Yes, sirs, I will let you know when I'm on board the enemy command ship." He told them. He shut off his communicator. He picked up his helmet and looked at it. This was going to be intense. He carried his helmet with him and ran off for a drop ship in the hangar. He approached the ship, and noticed the transport pilot walking out. "Pilot, get the ship ready, we have orders to deploy." Red told the pilot. The pilot blinked for a second, then nodded. "Roger that." He said and ran back in. Red would be going in, alone. He had a specialty in dealing with pirates, besides, none of the stormtroopers in the hangar would not really be able to keep up with Red. He would, however, request reinforcements when necessary, as to distract and disorientate the pirates. None of the pirates would be as well trained as Red, or as skilled as him. They would have the vast numbers against him, yes, but Red was planned to deal with that.

The transport pilot came out and gave a thumbs-up. They were ready to go. Red walked up the ramp and into the drop ship. The ramps shut behind them with a hiss, sealing them inside. Red followed the pilot to the cockpit. The pilot sat down, and started activating the ship's sequences. The engines turned on, and the ship lifted up. The pilot then flew the ship out of the hangar, and into the vacuum of space. Red looked around, he could see the massive collection of ships, and the large fight ensuing between the two. Ships firing and attacking left and right. It was surely a sight to behold. "Take us towards the pirate command ship. Fly fast." Red told the pilot. "Copy." The pilot said. He then flew the ship into the pirate lines. They flew past fighters from both sides, and past the pirate cruisers. They flew deeper and deeper.

Then, Red spotted a large Seismic charge go off, creating a weak point in the pirate defenses. "There!" Red said. The pilot adjusted their course and flew them through the recently opened weakness in the pirate defenses. Whoever had done that, it made it easier for Red to reach the pirate command ship. The shuttle flew towards the pirate command ship. Red noticed a fighter nearby, most likely the one that activated the Seismic charge. "Thanks for the distraction and opening, I'll move in from here." Red told the fighter over the comms.

The shuttle approached the pirate command ship. It was a large cruiser. How the pirate got it, well, Red didn't want to know. Turbolaser fire went all around them. The pilot weaved and dodged the incoming fire. "Position the ship above the cruiser. Get us as close as you can. On my signal, lower the ramp. Once I'm out of the ship, shut the ramp and get the hell out of here." Red told the pilot. Red couldn't see the pilot's face beneath the helmet, but Red could tell by his body language the he knew what Red was about to do. "Understood, sir." The pilot replied. Red walked out of the cockpit and into the hold. He put his helmet on. The helmet sealed to his armor, creating an air-tight seal, protecting Red from the cold and deadly vacuum of space. The light in the hold turned to red. Prepare for insertion. Then, it changed to green. "Go, go, go!" The pilot said over the intercom. The ramp opened, and Red was sucked out into space.

Red looked around. The pilot got them about 30 meters above the enemy cruiser. Red activated the boosters in his armor. He flew down towards the enemy cruiser. He should be too small for their turbolasers to be able to get a lock on him. He flew down towards the enemy cruiser. He noticed the shuttle flying back towards the Directorate fleet. Red continued to fly down towards the enemy cruiser. He deactivated his thrusters and landed on the enemy cruiser. He brought himself up to a piece of the hull on the cruiser. He pulled out his lightsaber, and started cutting a hole in it. He cut through, making a circle in the hull. He finished cutting through, and used the Force to pull out the hole. Air went gushing out, along with two pirates, into the vacuum of space. Red pulled himself into the hole. He noticed blast doors closing to shut off the breach. He used his thrusters to push himself past the blast doors just before they closed. He deactivated his thrusters and land on his feet. He looked around, and noticed multiple pirates staring at him.

Red pulled out one of his pistols, and blasted one in the face. The others reacted quickly, reaching for their weapons. Red saw this and moved quickly. He moved forward and sliced one's arms off with his lightsaber. Red turned to the left and kicked one on the throat with enough force to crush the pirate's throat. Red then back flipped, dodging a blaster bolt a pirate shot at him, and stabbed the pirate through the heart. Red then turned and fired three shots at three pirates running at him, with vibroblades out. The three dropped dead. One pirate managed to throw his vibroblade at Red, the blade tumbling through the air Red turned to the pirate he cut the arms off of, and threw him into the blade. Red threw the pirate with such force that the blade impaled him all the way through his chest. The pirate tumbled to the ground, with the blade in his chest. Red looked around. There were dead bodies everywhere. And those not dead yet were already dying, so Red would leave them alone. He deactivated his lightsaber and holstered his pistol. He reopened his comm channel, patching back into Admirals Craig and Evore. "Sirs, I have boarded the enemy command ship. I'll make my way through, sabotaging positions on the ship, and make my way to the bridge." He told them. Red pulled out his blaster rifle, and continued down the halls of the pirate cruiser. No doubt the pirates already knew he was here. No matter, they would be a slight problem, but Red could handle it.

"Alright then. Commodore, order the Achilles to drop cloak and begin firing her hypervelocity cannons." Tristan's cold voice ordered. The Fleet Admirals eyes stayed glued to the holo-table which depicted the Pirate Lord reorganizing his forces. It seemed as the pirate was about to gain the upper hand...that is until all hell broke loose.

The Wrath of Achilles unlocked directly in front of the enemy battlegroup. The turbolasers from the Pirates cruiser danced on her deflector screens as one by one, 500 Megamaser Battieres began popping up on her surface. They began a campaign of terror as they beated the eneies shields into submission.

​

In one fiery shot, the Achilles Hypervelocity cannons shot down the frigates and cruisers headed toward her. This rain of fire continued as Tristan himself joined the battle. The shcoked pirates would find themselves divided and scattered across the system.

The element of suprise would have worked. The pirate forces would begin to dwindle as thier systems would have begun disabling themselves.

There were too many of them. Almost all of the pirate fighters had been deployed and either destroyed or soon to be. "My lord, we have spotted someone on the ship heading to the bridge." He cursed. "Put it on lockdown and everyone to the escape pods! ABANDON SHIP. BACK TO HQ!" Klaxons blared and the pirate soldiers rushed down the halls, some diverting to meet Subject 73 Red the others heading for the escape pods. Once in the escape pod, the pirate lord and his pod shot out from under the ship, it's corvetts and frigates providing cover. They were headed now to Schesa. He wouldn't know they would follow him to the surface.
