I own none of these characters.
This may seem like just SW in the beginning, but it is mostly BSG. Anyway, if you don't know much about SW, Daala is a fairly ruthless commander.
Spoilers: Razor, or anything involving the Pegasus and Cain. Maybe more later. I'm not sure.
Anyway, first time at a BSG fic or a crossover, so please let me know if you like it or not. Thanks.

Chapter 1- Emergency Jump
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…
--
Imperial Star Destroyer Gorgon
"Sithspit!" Admiral Natasi Daala cried out as an explosion rocked the bridge of her Star Destroyer, sending her to her knees. Brushing her long copper hair out of her face, she whirled around furiously to her Executive Officer, Commander Kretas. His usually neat brown hair was tussled, but his face retained its usual mask of calmness. "What just hit us?!" she snapped at him.
Kretas looked up from his console. "Four rebel cruisers just jumped in right on top of us! We took a turbolaser salvo within seconds of their arrival."
Daala fumed. Her last remaining Star Destroyer, the Gorgon, had survived surprise attacks, black holes, and even a supernova. But her beloved ship had been badly damaged. They had jumped into a remote system and started to repair. They should have been unfindable.
She swore. This should not be happening. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, she snapped "Status!" Her XO looked at her and, for the first time she could remember in all her years of serving with him, she saw fear in his eyes.
"We took a hit right on to of the bridge. Shield generators are gone and we lost our long range comm system."
Daala closed her eyes, plans flipping through her head. She had been a top student at the Cardia academy, but the Imperial bias of females had kept her from being promoted until Moff Tarkin had taken her under his wing, as both student and lover. Assigned to guard a top secret instillation with her Star Destroyers, she had been out of contact with the galaxy until recently. Her prototype weapon had been stolen, and her fleet decimated. On the run, she ha stumbled upon this abandoned system. She had sent some fighters out to take a look at the damage, and it twisted her gut to have seen her ship in such a bad state. The normally pristine white paint was scorched black, and at least one of her main engines was out. Fortunately, her Mk. II Imperial Star Destroyer was equipped with a repair kit. It included scaffoldings and other material that could be magnetically fixed to the side of her Destroyer. Right now there were hundreds of workers climbing around the Gorgon, along with two TIE Fighters flying escort. She glanced at the holo board that showed the position of ships. The rebel Mon Calamari cruisers were much more than a match for her battered ship. Drawing in a deep breath, she turned towards her navigation officer. "Initiate-" she stopped in mid sentence. The navigation officer was dead. His console must have overloaded and exploded. Turing away from a face marred by hundred of glass cuts, she switched again to Kretas. "Jump!"
Kretas's jaw dropped in disbelief.They wouldn't have a jump solution for at least five minutes, so the only option was a blind jump, which did not travel on a known path. "Admiral, we have people out there! They'll die if we jump!"
Daala glared at him. "You think I don't know that?! We'll all die if we sit here."
Kretas tried one more tactic. "We could run into a planet or sun!"
In a flash of frustration she withdrew her blaster. Instead of pointing it at Kretas's head, as she knew that he was not afraid to die, she aimed it at another one of her crew members, a small woman who was cowering in a corner, trying to escape Daala's wrath. "Jump or she dies." she said coolly. With a pained expression on his face, Kretas reached over to the navigation console and pushed the hyperdrive system into active mode. As he did this, Daala made a mental note to deal with him later. If they survived. Another push activated the hyperdrive, starting to process of moving far faster than the sped of light.
As the Gorgon started to move forward, she tried not to look out the view port, but she couldn't close her eyes. She saw the workers that were only a few minutes ago calmly trying to repair the ship go flying, some into space, some impacting into the metal hull. She even noticed one man literally break in half from the impact. She could even swear she could hear the scream of the TIE Fighters' engines as they tried to catch up to the destroyer. Just as the Gorgon was entering hyperspace they received a direct turbolaser salvo to the engines, sending the destroyer tumbling almost 90°. Everyone with a window saw an amazing sight. The Gorgon tumbled as it went into hyperspace sideways, not straight, ripping a hole in the empty vacuum where it once was. Daala was flung across the room, slamming her head into a bulkhead. She heard something snap. And then darkness started to creep in. She tried to fight it off, but even her iron will had its limits. The last thing she remembered was hoping that her ship would survive. And then the darkness took her.
Hope that wasn't too confusing. Please Review!
