Drake turned to Ashley when she mentioned challenging him "Well aren't we the daring type..." he laughed teasing her some. "Sounds like a challenge I may just accept one day" he smirked when the guy came flying into the bridge and landed on the consle Drake turned around and bonked him on the head with his saber hilt to make sure he was out. "Took ya long enough" he told Jor as he watched him pull the ship out of hyper drive. Drake stood up to let Jor take the seat so he could pilot them safely.

Ashley looked at Drake and said, "Well I'm always up for a good duel." She turned to Jor. "About time is right."

Karite soon followed behind jor lightsaber ignited and deflecting an occastional blaster bolt that came his way. He shut the door and began to work upon the consule to lock it down. "I'm locking the bridge down, so what ever your going to do, do it fast Tinman. I'm not quite sure how long it will be until they use explosives." Said Karite as he finished up with locking the door down. He melted the sides of the door together to try and make the door more strudy but he could hear the bolts hitting the other side of the door....

Hey, if you people are worried about a weapon shortage, don't be.
Ash forced himself into the armory, and leaned against the closed and locked door, and let his hand slip off the console near him. He had been to hell and back, and he was feeling it now. Be managed to break his way out of his cage, was attack by some creatures, managed to wound one, kill one, and get out, ran half way around the ship getting attacked around every turn, and only just showed up here.
He didn't pay attention to the earlier rescue party; he was too fixed on breaking out to notice anything else. If he just turned, he may have been in a better situation than the one he was in now. He shook his head, stood on his good leg, his left one was bleeding, and he only just got it to stop.
Karite, you need any help, or are you dead? There is enough explosives in here to blow this ship from here to Endor.
He felt the ship slow down, and he almost fell to the ground, but the door held him steady.
Better speak up before the Blade comes here and blows the bridge to bits, then I will need to get it replaced.
Unless anyone had anything to say about it, Ash was planning on taking this cruiser for himself. This would be a good addition to his fleet, and would be of great help, but knowing everyone else, they would probably take it strait to the officials. [/sub] |

"Uh... yeah, you all might want to strap in or something." Jor said to everyone on the bridge. "Rita, how are you doing."
Rita, who had gone to engineering to secure the engine spaces brought her hand to her ear to respond. "Engine spaces are clear of personnel but the computer systems aren't on a wireless network and i'm having trouble using their consoles without password access."
Jor turned the wheel to the left slowly. The ship responded, turning to port as the ships maneuvering thrusters fired. Jor watched the counter that showed their coarse slowly tick away in numerals Jor couldn't read but he knew that the turn would eventually slow them down.
Out in space, the Merlin exited hyperspace 200,000 kilometers away and started advancing.

Drake smirked at Ashley "Well I'll hold you to that duel then" he said to her as he turned to Karite and the guy that just came in after him. He sighed "You can have the ship if we don't destroy it first that is...or unless Jor got something to say about it" Drake turned to Jor who told everyone to strap themselves in. "Strap myself in...do I look four to you Jor" Drake said before Jor turned the ship. Drake was thrown into a wall bashing his head against it. "Ouch son of a bitch..." he growled under his breath as he stood up and slowly made his way to a chair. He strapped himself in "I'm doing this under my own will, not cause you told me..." Drkae said to Jor as he ripped a peice of his robe and wrapped it around his head to stop the bleeding.

Karite went around to the computers looking over the systems, and he was starting to see patterns to some of the letters but he could only guess what they meant. Karite heard Jor say strap in, and there being no seats with straps available at the moment he held onto a consule near him and watched out the view port. "Well, it seems like there's a dot on this radar now." said Karite hopping it was a friend of theirs as blasters contiuned to hit the back of the door Karite had sealed shut. "They are presistant, I'll give um that...."

Jor turned the ship in a slow arc towards the Merlin. He got up and looked around the bridge. If he remembered correctly, the communications station was to the left of the helm.
He examined the console but still couldn't make heads or tails of the controls. Luckily for him Merlin hailed them. The button on the console started blinking yellow and Jor pushed it. Keldons voice came through the speakers. "Attention, unidentified Carrack cruiser, this is the League of Non-Aligned Systems Corvette Merlin. Power down your engines."
"Keldon, this is Jor. I have a long story but the short version is we've taken the bridge and we'll need pickup here in a minute." Jor said.
"Understood Warmaster, we'll prepare to dock. Be advised, i received a signal from Roger Young. They're homing in on our hypercom beacon and preparing to support us along with Hector." Keldon responded.
"Roger that Merlin. was that you shooting at us not to long ago?" Jor asked
"Negative Warmaster. Another ship was in the area firing on the pirate vessel, they claim they had a person on board as well." Keldon said.
"Roger that Merlin. Better stay out there in case it shows up again. We'll get out when Roger Young shows up." Jor said.
"Understood Warmaster, we'll go on combat patrol around the Carrack." Keldon responded.

Attention Inidentified Carrack Cruiser, this is the Mandalorian Cruiser, Blade Edge Power down all systems and prepare to be boarded.
The Blade came out of hyperspace behind the Merlin, and the fighters all started for the Carrack cruiser. The Blade itself headed there also. No ship fired. They would wait to see if the Carrack would comply.
Merlin, do us a favor and see if your friends know if a Mandalorian in black and red armor is still alive for us, would you not?
---------------------------
Once Ash caught his breath, he walked around the room, and his eyes laid upon a E-web blaster assembly. A sly grin spread on Ash face as as he walked to teh dripod mounted cannon. He died the power pack on his back, and picked up the cannon like a rifle, and shot off a two second burst into the wall, making a blackened hole. It must have been modified. Still smiling, he walked to the consol.
Bridge, be advised. Im coming for you, you pirates bastards.
Ash opened the door and mowed down the pirates who stood up against him. [/sub] |

Keldon had the Merlin circle around to put her on Blades Edge's Port Quarter. He had his comm officer open a channel to the Blades Edge.
"Blades Edge, this is the Merlin. Your authority is not recognized here. The League of Non-Aligned Systems is here on special request of the Chiss Ascendancy. You are ordered to stand down your fighters and move to any heading except one inbound on the Carrack class Cruiser." Keldons voice said over the comm. "If you do not comply we'll be forced to view you as hostile and disable your ship."
Back on the Carracks bridge, Jor was still struggling to remember how to operate the ships controls but wasn't making much headway until Rita came over Jor's com. "Jor, i found a console that had someone already logged in. He didn't have time to log out before i got to them apparently. I've access to their network and sliced into it's wireless system. I'm now wirelessly connected to their ships system and i'm breaking through their security one firewall at a time."
"Can you access the ships main controller systems?" Jor asked.
"They were the first systems I sliced my way into. I can handle every thing and i thought i should let you know, a civilian owned warship entered the systems and deployed fighters bound for us. I'm monotoring com traffic and it looks like they belong to that Mando you pulled out of the force cage."
"That jackass is making it hard to keep this 40 year old rickety ship air tight by shooting everything in site. If he isn't careful he's going to hull the ship and find himself floating home." Jor said back.
"I have the weapons tracking the inbound fighters just in case."
"understood Rita, thanks for the update. find a nice hole to site tight in and stand by for further orders." Jor orderd.

Ashley strapped herself in and looked at Drake. "If you can manage to stay in one damn piece." She popped him in the back of the head and grinned.

Drake was still sitting still when Ashley hit him in the back of the head, he turned to her "Gee thanks, like my head being injured wasn't enough" he laughed joking with her. Drake turned back to Jor when he got in contact with Rita she said something about being able to get into the ships systems "Great, well it seems like we're gonna have a fairly smooth ride, well if those idiots outside don't blow us all to hell..." he laughed. Drake then heard the guy address the bridge "Oh...that sounded like a challenge" Drake smirked as he stood up and carefully made his way over to the seat next to Jor. He strapped himself back in and looked around "This looks right" he said pushing a button he hopped was the intercom. "Hey, I heard someone say they were comin to the bridge...well if ya think ya got balls big enough, come try us!!!" he yelled over the intercom.

Karite looked at the consule for a second and then thought of an idea, if he could connect to the holoweb he could probably find a file that would translate all that was being said upon the consules. He tried that really quick and a lucky find he managed to come across a converter.
"I think I just downloaded a Converter for this langauge to basic...." said Karite unsure of what to do next. "I'm going to try and open it to translate the ships messages." Karite then opened the folder and began to run it on his terminal and sent it to all other terminals so it could be used.

Merlin, We have no quarrel with you, and I don't really care who you are here for. You target us, and we will open fire on your ship with all batteries. I would like to just get our captain out of there, with our without taking that ship for ourselves, though knowing him, he would try to get a ship to help forge his mandalorian fleet.
The Blade stayed on target, though the turbolaser batteries swiveled towards the Merlin's main direction.
--------------------------
I need to be more careful.
Ash grimaced as he burnt down a group of pirates. He was getting too careless now, and had to straiten his aim. His leg gave out on him twice already, and he was tiring fast, despite his attempts to force his body to listen to him.
After a couple minutes of slow walking and blasting pirates into vapor, he opened a door with a discharge, and walked in, only to see a woman who looked somewhat familiar.
Its not nice to call people civilians when they are far from it. My ship nor the fighters will open fire so long as you don't make the first................ move.
Ash was nearly shot, but he blasted the pirate to nothingness, then walked into the room and locked the door.
Want some help getting to the bridge, or are you fine here?
Ash set the blaster on the ground, leaning on the part that was still up. This took the weight off his bad leg. His golden eyes looked at the woman. [/sub] |

Rita looked the Mandalorian up and down, then hefted her Z-6 rotary blaster cannon with one hand. "No offense but i wouldn't feel safe going to the corner store with you."
While Rita talked, a subroutine was running keeping control of the Carrack cruiser. It's ion cannons shifted track to target the incoming force of fighters from the Mandalorian corvette but they remained unpowered. Alternately, she sealed off the rear most engineering spaces and vented them to space disallowing the pirates access to them.
Out in space, Shipmaster Keldon narrowed his eyes. These civilians were obviously new to the whole interstellar law thing. "Helm, fire a warning shot across her bow, 1/4th strength on the quad lasers."
"Aye aye shipmaster" The helmsman replied. He worked on his console targeting a section of space a Kilometer in front of the Blades Edge's bow. The Cutter class corvette fired a single quad laser bolt which streaked a kilometer in front of the Blades Edge.
"Blades Edge, i'll say this one more time. your ordered to recall your fighters and alter your heading to an outbound vector from the Carrack cruiser." Keldon said over the com. "If you take any unauthorized action against that Carrack it'll be viewed as hostile actions in Chiss space."
As if in response to Keldons words, two more ships jumped out of hyperspace. Another Cutter class Corvette and an Immobilizer 418 cruiser, the Roger Young and Hector respectively. Nearly immediately the gravity well projectors on the Immobilizer dialed up and opened gravity wells in front of the carrack cruiser and the Blades Edge.
