Admiral roach

[mandalore-the-inquizitor]

I'm an admiral in the service of the galactic empire. I command task force 23, a group of four star destroyers; the Medusa ,The Herakles's, Battler Eight, my flag ship the Prometheus, and eight Carrack cruisers alpha 1-8.

One day on what was supposed to be a routine patrol on Corellia, we where ambushed by a Rebel Fleet of 4 Nebulon-b Frigates and four Corellian Corvettes.

The rebels launched their four X-wing squadrons and four Y-wing squadrons. We immediately launched four tie/in squadrons from the Prometheus and sent them to play with their bombers, and six tie squadrons from the Medusa to pound the X-wings. While I was ordering the fighters around my second in command, Commander Screed, noticed a crack in the rebels flank that our bombers could sneak through. So I launched the Prometheus' two remaining bomber squadrons into the breach along with bombers from the Battler Eight. Her three squadrons flew in with our bombers and started shooting up the rebs flank.

They tried to turn their corvettes away but that was a mistake because Alpha one, seven, eight, and ten slid in hitting their exposed corvettes while my destroyers slipped among the nebulon frigates. The frigates returned fire of course but with them already damaged from my bombers they stood little chance, but two of their frigates started bombarding my ship. An explosion ripped through the hull knocking me to the deck plates.

"What the hell?!"

"Sir they rammed us! Our port shield generator is out!"

By that time the Medusa had parked herself in the rebs line of fire and was blocking the rebel volley. After a few minutes the rebels last frigate limped into hyper space.

I collapsed in to my command chair. "Status report master coms."

The com officer replied; "Sir we suffered some damage but nothing irreparable."

"Casualties sir, five of our technicians died in the explosion, one of the bridge crew has a minor concussion. Also, lost eight tie fighters and 4 tie bombers."

"Recall all fighters and prepare for the reinforcements to arrive and remind me to promote the commander of the Medusa."

This is the revised version thanks defender.

Why would you waste your ties against neb-b's and corvettes when you have four ISDs?

 

Grand Nagus Budious hereby demotes you for blatant violation of the of the 132nd Rule of Acquistion

Three days after that fight we arrived at Duro. The shipyards there would be making repairs to our vessel. When we arrived we were told to take our damaged ship to space dock 117. So after 30 minutes of slow ponderous maneuvering we docked with the facility i then took my personal fighter .http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa314/heartXfeltXchaos/Preybird.jpg A Sorosuub prey bird. Out in to space and darted toward the Medusa. When I reached the Medusa I landed in the tie fighter bay and climbed out of the cockpit. Afterwards was escorted to the bridge by a young rather talkative storm trooper who apparently loved my vessel. When I reached the bridge the captain called out. "Officer on deck." "At ease men." I said. "Captain please step forward." The captain strode across the deck and saluted when he reached me. I returned his salute and said. "In light of bravery and command ability, during the battle of corellia I here by promote you to the rank of commander. I handed the commander his new rank insignia and he pinned it to his uniform ."Congratulations commander and i also present to you the, Imperial Medal of Valor for your bravery and for saving the lives of myself my ship and my crew.

 

 

After two weeks in the ship yard my ship was finally repaired. Then given back into my service. The ties we lost where replace and so where the pilots. After that we received orders to investigate rumors of a rebel fleet on Mon calamari. In reward for my victory at Corellia i was given command of two strike cruisers the Manticore Dragon's Banquet.

 

Well it took all of fourteen days to reach man calamari. once we got there i wish we had never come sitting in front of us was a fleet of twelve Mon calamari cruisers. i immediately offered a retreat. But to my horror the rebels had deployed a pair of CC-7700 frigates we couldn't run and we couldn't fight so i sent out a transmission to the biggest of the calamari cruisers offering our surrender. the Mon cals. ships moved in along with their frigates to get in to point blank but the commander of the Medusa screamed over the comm The Admirals a Traitor Attack me unfortunately my men agreed with him many of the storm troopers on my ship began shooting at each other and me most of my command crew defended me but many of the storm troopers obviously stood with there commander after a tense fire fight on the bridge the Mon cal, fleet opened up on any of my ship that war resiting i bolted from the bridge whit my command crew i jumped into my fighter and they got themselves in to a pair of shuttles while the storm troopers continued to blast each other once we where clear of the ship i triggered my insurance policy i detonated the proton cores in the reactors of all my ships blowing them to space dust a group of rebel fighter came at us there guns ready to fire i said we surrender don't shoot. The fighters escorted us to a docking bay on their flag ship then we disembarked to be greeted by rebels of all species blaster leaved on us i immediately unbuckled my pistol belt and let it fall to the deck plates. i motioned for my men to do the same they complied and the pistols hit the plates with a clang my men where escorted to the brig an to my surprise the rebs led me to a conference room one of them left and the other stayed to guard me. as i sat bored out of my mind i asked the guard a female twilek "Are they going to interrogate me or bore me to death?" She shot me a faint smile and said "Admiral ackbar will be with you shortly. " "Hmm A rebel admiral must be a hell of an officer then the door on the opposite side of the room opened and in strode a tall Mon calamari my jaw dropped i had been told Mon cals where a pacifist species. The Admiral turned and walked toward me and extended his hand which i shook firmly After A pause the admiral sat in a chair at the opposite end of the table and looked up at the guard you may leave soldier the twilek saluted an left the room then ackbar in the gravel voice Said "So your the admiral who destroyed our blockade on corellia.""Yes."I replied then he asked you are from rendilli Correct. I said "yes" He the turned on a holoprojector showing an Imperial at-at plodding through the streets of the capital of Rendilli A street he knew well The at-at fired volley after volley into a building my apartment building that was where his family lived. shocked awed and immediately turned murderous holovid went on to show people being pulled out of the building that the empire suspected to be harboring a rebel cell among them was my sister my youngest brother and to my horror my best friend and my lover he along with grand father dead I then in a fit of anger i slammed my fist on to the projector screen shattering it leaving glass shards stuck in my hand. I then looked at the admiral and said I'll murder them and headed toward the door that was of course locked i leaned against the wall and slumped down on the floor in a heap i then began to cry during the time i was watching the vid a man had entered the room i hadn't really notice up until now the man was young maybe twenty he sat next to me on the floor an Said "those Bastards will pay for what they did." then ackbar spoke "the imperial commander was fed false information by a bounty hunter that a rebel cell was in the building so he had it destroyed." then regaining my composer said "show that to my crew the need to know about this atrocity.he nodded the young man grabbed a med kit and began treating the wound on my hand. I then looked at Ackbar and said you give me a ship and my crew and ill fight for you. Ackbar said a must discuss the matter with high command but the alliance will certainly welcome you. "Wait Ackbar bar what happened to my older brother." "He Joined the alliance." said Akbar an the door opened and My brother came running in and said "admiral you Have news about my brother...He stopped mid sentence and look at me then he smiled and almost in tears grabbed me in a hug and said "ah thank the force your alive little brother I thought they had killed you to he squeezed me tight" I said I'm hard to kill Big bro he then said damn an admiral. Mom said you'd never make it in the academy boy you proved her wrong huh." i said to my brother if Ackbar gives me a command ill fight for the alliance.

Is that the revised version of the Preybird? Preybird 2 or something?

 

This story isn't bad overall, but my head is hurting something fierce after the lack of punctuation. (It's like a physical force!)

Could we perhaps find a volunteer to edit these posts and PM them back to inquizitor?

 

EDIT: I guess I could do it now though while I wait for Paul to log on.
