OOC: I know theres already two RP's started but this one is kinda different.

IC: On a desolate, rocky, barren planet in the Outer Rim a battle rages on between Imperial and Rebel ground forces under a red, dreary sky. The Imperials have been attacking a Rebel stronghold for days. It seems there is a permanent cloud of dust over the battlefield. Although the Rebel fortress is strong, they are running short on supplies and men. There are no capital ships in the area and very few smaller ones, as they have all been called away to more important battles. The field is littered with dead stormtroopers and Rebel troopers, as well as destroyed AT-AT's and speeders. All of the sudden the Imperial anti-air guns light up and a light freighter crashes about 4km from the thick of the battle. Immediatly a group of speeder bikes heads out from the Imperial camp to go investigate the wreckage.

OOC: Ok you can be anybody Imp, Rebel, a passenger on the freighter ( I'm gonna post tomorrow as the pilot), you can also just randomly join in the action (smuggler bringing supplies for the Rebels, etc.) You can't be either the Rebel or Imp Commander. Oh yeah by they way I control whether you hit or not in combat.

There is a loud crash as the freighter plummets into the ground. The ship is tossed around like a ragdoll. Finally it settles and a cloud of dust rises over the wreckage. All of the sudden a light starts flashing and the pilot regains awareness. The pilot is a male Zabrak with one of his horns chipped and another one jetting out to the side. His other features are masked by a heavy blanket of dust from the crash.

*Spits dust from mouth*

Pilot: DAMN!!! MY SHIP!!! ITS RUINED!!!!!!!!!!! Those Imperial scum, they will pay!!

As he starts to calm down he looks at the controls and sees that some are still miraculousy working. He then notices a little dot on the ground radar moving quickly towards the ship.

Pilot: Looks like the Imps are coming to finish the job... and I'll be ready for them. (as he gingerly strokes the heavy blaster on his thigh.)

He then instinctively reaches back for the blaster rifle he kept in the cockpit, only to find it snapped in half by the crash.

After pushing his way out of the cockpit he heads around pack to go check on the passengers.

OOC: The cockpit was sealed of from the rest of the ship in the crash.

OOC: Is your character Thew Rydur, or someone else, Thew?

IC:

Meanwhile, the situation was not looking good for the rebels. Their troops morale was steadily decreasing. Their food supplies were almost gone. And the Imperials were gaining ground quickly with two AT-ATs and 4 AT-STs that were headed for the base. It looked as if the Empire had won when suddenly one of the AT-ATs exploded under a barrage of laser fire. It's framework fell over and crushed one of the AT-STs. Everyone looked up and saw a YT-2000 floating in the air. The ship landed in one of the base's hangars. The base commander ran into the hangar as a ramp lowered from the ship's hull and a figure descended it.

Figure: My name's JoKen Jash, and I'm ready to show those Imperial slugs what I'm made of.

Commander: Thanks JoKen, we always welcome another pilot.

JoKen: Oh, I forgot to mention, your supplies are in my ship.

He walks back up the ramp as several men run to to the ship. After he has gone to the cockpit the men start unloading the supplies. soon the ship is unloaded and takes off.

OOC: I was waiting to see if anyone else would post here but..

IC:
*Pulls blaster from holster and goes around to the back hatch*

Pilot: Anybody in there?

*Kicks hatch open and looks inside to find noone but the escape pods gone*

Pilot: Well I guess the passengers are safe...

All of the sudden a blaster bolt ricochets above the pilots head.

*Dives into the hatch*

OOC: If anyone wants to have two characters I don't mind since theres not that many people RPing here.

The pilot peers out of the hatch to see two of four Imperial troopers dismount their speeder bikes and head caustiouly towards the ship, with their blasters drawn.

The pilot then retracts back into the ship.

Pilot: Damn! I was on good terms with the Imps to... even cleared to smuggle in some areas. Oh well.... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

*Pops up unleases a blind volley at the Imperials*

He hits one of the dismounted troopers in the leg, causing the other to flee for cover. By sheer luck another shot bounces of a rock and strikes one of the still mounted troopers in the neck.

OOC: sorry about that double post

All of the Sudden an AT-ST comes into view and starts to unleash a deadly volly of blaster fire at the ships hull. Meanwhile, JoKen is in the air combating eyeballs when he sees the AT-ST attacking the downed ship.

JoKen: You aren't getting that ship without a fight!

Joken's Ship comes into a steep dive, then pulls out of it at almost ground level and uleashes a volly of laseres at the AT-ST...

Hitting the AT-ST in the leg causing it to topple. The two drivers scrammble out of the wreckage and dash towards their Imperial comrades.

Pilot: What the.... ?

The pilot pops up out of the hatch and hits one of the drivers in the leg, causing him to stumble. One of the troopers capitalizes on this oppurtunity and takes aim at the pilot. The bolt strikes him in the right shoulder, causing him to fall back into the ship.
