"Acknowledged, general Calrissian. I'm already on my way out."

Wedge Antilles wasn't know for missing a shot. Nor was he known for fleeing. So when Red squadron needed a new leader for the attack on the second death Star, Wedge was the optimal choice.

Of course, at the time he'd accepted the promotion, he hadn't known he'd be flying INTO the Death Star. And now, here he was.

On his way out of the reactor core, Wedge heard his comm. go off.

"Wedge! They're all over me! I can't-" and then static. Wedge couldn't turn around. He knew that the shot he had given to the main reactor was enough to destroy the station. Still, as he flew away, Wedge tried desperately for a receiving call.

"General Calrissian, please respond. Are you there? Lando, are you there?"

But no one answered.
