The RBL Store.

[RBL_Vapor]

The skilled veteran pilot screamed his woodland-camo-painted Tie Defender back into the fray. Ducking shots using gentle jukes of the stick elongated the lines of fire around his canopy. And then he saw it:

A flash and then a streak of light that seared through the battle lines and came out of hyperspace, a flaming wreck of a craft that could only be--

"Vapor...I didn't realize it was that time again."Tanker said low under his voice.

There was no communique from the near derelict X-Wing that left an Ion trail in its wake. Only a seemengly despereate bee-line for the RBLHome hangars. The VSD was nearly disabled and began to lose helm control. Though her turrets still opened fire, their accuracy dwindled with each wave of attacks from the RBL pilots.

The other pilots watched as the crippled ship moved across their fields of view.

Warning lights flashed before his eyes. He squinted to make out the meatball on the ILS. A computerized warning light came on for velocity "You're fast, slow down. You're fast, slow down."

"He's gonna blow a hole in the back of the hangar." Tanker muttered.

"Vapor. Good to see you again. But your ship has seen better days it seems" Acehigh said with a smile.

"Ill talk when I get her in. With any luck she wont rip the hanger a new one." Vapor replied.

A lone Tie dropped in on Vapor's six and fired a concussion missle.

"Uhm guys. I'm out of countermeasures!" Vapor exclaimed

No one was close enough to Vapor to block the shot. Tank's jaw dropped. He turned and targeted the missle bound for Vapor's heat signature but it was out of range. He reached into the force and felt around inside the missle's guidance system. He clenched down on the ergo-hydraulics and spoke into Vapor's mind:

"Bank now."

"I cant. My controls are shot." Vapor replied

Tanker reached deeper and began to turn the missle slowly but too slowly. It would impact in seconds. And then a violent fury began to consume him. A feeling of helplessness that only fueled a rage he had worked so hard to control. In a flash the missle was consumed in flames.

The shockwave impacted the hull of the already crippled ship.

"Thanks Tank but that mightve been too much"

Vapor blinked. "Eject. Eject. Eject."

Vapor's X exploded...
