Oron continued rubbing his head, trying to think back to where he learned how to use the Force."Well, I had no "teacher", or nobody taught me to use the Force, Admiral. I simply just taught myself to control my emotions, and it has payed off. Honestly, that's pretty much all I know." Oron tried to sense the Admiral's thoughts but had no luck. It was like she had no brain in her.

Celestial was slightly disappointed, but did not show it. "Go to your quarters, shower, get into uniform and meet me in my quarters in an hour ensign. Here are the directions." Celestial saluted and left.
She headed to her quarters; she had to finish drawing the details for the formation of Reaper Squadron. It was mostly just the Report to the Admiralty, but it also included acquiring of supplies to upgrade the fighters and final roaster.

Oron stood up and saluted the Admiral as she walked out. He used the directions to head to his quarters. The quarters were empty, Oron thinking everyone was at work. There were 12 beds however, with gear on each bed. Oron switched into his new uniform and left the room, heading to the mess hall to grab a quick bite to eat, then to the Admiral's quarters.

Celestial heard a knock at her door. She just got off the line with the Admiralty and they gave her the go for Reaper Squadron. "Enter." Celestial said, not getting up from her desk. Oron walked in and saluted. "Take a seat Ensign, we need to talk about your future in this fleet." Celestial waited for him to take a before continuing. "As you know, the outer rim is unstable at the best of times. To counter the growing criminal and terrorist organizations moving and causing unrest, I have formulated a new squadron of fighters. This squadron well be able to do the job of any starfighter mission but at the sametime be able to do the job of a special forces unit." Celestial paused for a second to let the description to sink in and wait for the standard questions to fallow.

Before sitting down, Oron saluted the Admiral and took a seat. He listened to her as she explained what has been going on in the Outer Rim, with all of the terrorist organizations and crime occurring. Oron couldn't think of any questions at the moment. He liked the idea the Admiral told him about this Squadron/Commando style unit. Oron nodded his head, insisting she continued.

Celestial continued after she realized that Oron still did not have any questions. "Well, I needed someone I could count on to get the job done. You being a force sensitive with fairly good scores in your profile became an obvious choose." Celestial stood up and took out a small box from her desk. She opened it and handed it to him. It contained a set of Lieutenant bars and Squadron Leader pins. "Congratulation Lieutenant, you are the squadron commander for Reaper Squadron." She let him a second of joy before she continued on with her presentation.
Celestial did not sit back down but walked over to a screen on the wall. Activating it a Y-35 Cobra appeared. "Reaper Squadron well be made up of Y-35's which I personally have redesigned for the squadrons needs. The King Cobra as I like to call it is stealthy, better armed and faster than the standard Cobra." As she talked several changes where shown on the monitor concerning the modification being made to the cobras. "We are not finished upgrading them yet because of supply problems with several of the components but they are still flyable without the missing upgrades. When they are done, you well have the meanness starfighter and pilots in the entire navy." Celestial turned off the monitor and sat back down. She did not say the other perks of being a special unit under her command, she figured it was time to answer questions should any have arose.

Oron gracefully took the new uniform, Squad Leader Pins, and the Lieutenant bars. He looked at the wall which showed a picture of the fighter and was impressed. He couldn't wait to fly these ships with his men into the heart of battle. As the Admiral sat down, Oron had a few questions.
"Sir, are there any men so far that are in the squadron, or am I the only one so far? Also, what types of mission does High Command have in store for us, since there is no war going on."

Celestial figured she would take each question in order. "Well, as of now you are one of two which I have selected. I have selected Ensign Ash Lightning to fly in the number five fighter as a flight lead. He is good with almost every weapon and well be able to do field repairs. I am still trying to pull the rest of your squadron together; it is hard to find pilots with the unique skills needed." Celestial slide over a datapad with some data on Ash then continued. "As for your mission, High Command will not be giving out the majority of your missions, I will. You are going to do everything from rescuing enslaved citizens, destroying pirate base defenses, capture criminals, anything that regular naval forces cannot handle." Celestial got up and walked towards to the door. "Come on, I want to introduce your crew chief and the King Cobra fighter. I can answer more questions on the way." Celestial open the door and waited for Oron.

Oron took the data pad that the Admiral had handed to him and began reading about the Ensign. He was indeed, a pretty good expert when it came to weapons. As the two began walking out of the Admiral's quarters, Oron continued on with more questions."Will we be doing any land based operations as well?"

Celestial looked at him. "Why of course, but it will be in a commando function. We do not have any infantry on out ship so you will not be performing major operations." As they talked they walked into the hanger bay and over to the side of it. Setting in a row was thirteen black King Cobras. The Cobras were already upgraded with the stealth package and the proton rocket mounts. Celestial walked up to the second one in the lineup. The only makings on the craft was a small number 2-1 on center engine and Lieutenant Oron written below cockpit.
As they looked over the craft, a Sluissi slither up. "Ah, it is a beautiful fight, no."Celestial turned around and smiled. "Lieutenant Oron, Chief Thythro. He well be making the modification to your squadron and leading the deck crew that maintains your fighters." The Sluissi saluted Celestial and Oron. It was easy to see he was proud of the fighters and had the greatest respect for Celestial.

Oron saluted back to Chief Thythro. He walked behind his fighter and looked at the modifications that the crew had made."Impressive work, Chief. I can't wait to fly this girl in action." Oron said as he touched the fighter and continued looking around. He was amazed at the fact that these fighters were upgraded and could probably outfly any enemy aircraft and get them into the most heated territories."Are they able to fly yet?"

Celestial nodded. "They have all the component needed for flight still. We ever we get a new components we will remove the older one and install the newer one. In fact all the modifications are first tested on my Y-35, and it still flies." Celestial signalled over to the fighter next to Oron's. It had the number 1-1 on the egine and under the cockpit it has Admiral "Cylon" Celestial.

"Ah, most impressive Admiral Celestial. Does she fly well?" Oron asked. He was very eager to test his fighter out and see how it works in the midst of a battle or covert operation. Oron also wondered where the Ensign Ash was. It was not leaving a fairly good impression on Oron himself that his flight leader had still not reported in.

Celestial smiled. "You well get to see. You are going be taking it on its first trial. Your squadron is going to raid a hutt storage facility in orbit of Nar Hutta. I have intelligence they have a weapons from disrupter pistols up to capital ship turbolasers. Your task well sneaking onto the space station, insure the illegal weapons are onboard, and then disable the defense. Once the defenses are down, a taskforce well arrive and Spacetroopers will invade the station and help secure it." She handed him a datapad. It gave the coordinates for strike. “I am also assigning Kira Limea and Jasirm to you squadron. Kira is an expert sniper and scout while Jasirm is an explosive expert.” There information was also on the datapad. She waited to hear his question of the mission.

"How many enemy troops are we expecting?"Oron asked as he wondered how they hell they would even get into the facility.
