Gavin Darklighter: C> stick is slugish , shields gone,

Jagged Fel: -=Keeping any ground fire from hitting the injured starfighter=-

Gavin Darklighter: C> ::straining and static::

Face Loran: C>So the story about yo!u and the Ewok waitress isn't true? ::He asked in a matter of fact voice before becoming serious as he tries to hear what is happening.::

Jagged Fel: -=Vaults down the side of his fighter=-

Hobbie Klivian: *mumbles* he stole my name -=shakes head to himself with a wry smile as he escorts the shuttle back to the ship=-

Jagged Fel: -=Pats his fighter with a smile on his face at how well his wingpair performed=-

Mike Ngo: ::shuts down his fighter after landing. he slides down his fighters ladder:: whew.... ::as he takes off his helmet and wipes perspiration from his brow.:: ::walks over:: Well that was some flying, huh Jagged?

Jagged Fel: -=nods=- We did well.

Hobbie Klivian: -=once the ships are back, he shakily uses his antigrav thingies what the name I cannot remember to bring himself in through the magcon=- -=only one landing strut extends, and he uncerimoniously drops the ship to deck with a lovely crashing sound - is jostled and thinks that Koyi is going to murder him..... again - manually pushes the cockpit open..... or tries to - -=puills out personal comlink from a singed pocket and sets it to everyone elses signal=- A little help here? -=waves at them from where he's stuck inside the cockpit=-

Mike Ngo: ::reaches hobbie's crashed ship, knocks on the transparisteel and waves::

Hobbie Klivian: -=opens eyes and looks at Ngo as if to say "what took you so long?=-

Mike Ngo: ::he starts working the laser torch to cut the canopy open::

Hobbie Klivian: -=pushes himself toward the other end to minimise scortching. he's scortched enough as it is=-

Mike Ngo: ::he makes one more cut and sets the torch down. attempts to pry the rest of the viewport away with his hands::

Gavin Darklighter: ::the shuttle lands in the far side of the hanger::

Hobbie Klivian: -=goes to push against it, and falls back into his seat tiredly=-

Mike Ngo: ::he! grimaces from the strain:: ::heaves once more:: rrr...:: stops::

Jagged Fel: -=climbs on top of the x-wing=-

Mike Ngo: you do it. ::laughs::

Hobbie Klivian: -=shouts throught hte glass=- Should I break into my emergancy rations now, or later? *wan smile*

Jagged Fel: -=looks around=- -=sees Hobbies r2 unit =-

Mike Ngo: ::shakes his head and tries again:: ::the canopy cracks open and Hobbie is freed!::

Face Loran: ::Medic crew enters one hea!ds off towards the Shuttle while the other heads off towards Hobbie's fighter, both have a stretcher each.::

Hobbie Klivian: -=and there was much rejoicing=- -=grumbles incoherently as he pulls himself through, a mass of spark burns and blood running down the left side of his face.=-

Hobbie Klivian: -=swipes at blood again with gloved hand=-

DESCRIPTION: Shut up, Colonel ::as hobs is pressed into the stretcher, other medics tending to minor wounds::

Gavin Darklighter: ::they hear a scream comming from the shuttle, then curses::

Hobbie Klivian: -=grumbles as they tend to the burns and lacerations he recieved when his ship went on hiatus without him - sits up quickly, and wnces as he looks toward the ship=- What the?

Gavin Darklighter: Not the tank..please....

Hobbie Klivian: -=pushes medics out of the way and lopes his way toward the shuttle=-

Gavin Darklighter: :: he tries to stand up, and get away from the medics::

Hobbie Klivian: -=lope lope lope=- -=blood dripping down off his chin, he finally rea!ches the shuttle and works his way within to see what's happening=-

Gavin Darklighter: ::the medics struggle to keep Gavin pined to the stretcher::

Hobbie Klivian: What's going on here?

Gavin Darklighter: I don't want to go into the tank... ::struggles::

Hobbie Klivian: Darklighter! 0-commanding tone-0

Hobbie Klivian: -=throws a glare at the medic and unconvincingly stalks (half limping) out of the shuttle.=-

Face Loran: ::Walks down the ramp of an LC, his arms folded behind his head.::

Gavin Darklighter: :: looks at the medic behind Hobbie, and lets out a small chuckle, wincing::

Face Loran: ::Loudly whisteling a tune.::
