The Locus Squadron

Chapter I: Roi Altega

Roi's POV

Location: Outer Rim of Space

"I'm hit, I'm hit!" That sentence, coming out of Lowry's mouth, stunned me. "Hang in there, Lowry!" I said, my hands sweating, which where clutching onto the firing joysticks.My partner, Jack Rolie, was piloting Quick Silver, my prized possession, while I was at the rear, firing at the first order fighters. "Jack, get the reinforcements. Lowry and Nix are going down, get into formation when get here. I repeat, get help!" I yelled over the firing. A muffled sound came over the radio- they were jamming the signal. "Damnit!" I cursed, getting into firing position. Bam! Suddenly, Jack replied, "We have been hit! Lowry's down, they're gone! Keep firing, Roi!"

"No problem Jack! Is the hyper drive up?" I asked, and finally fired at the fighter that was getting on my nerves. I watched as it went down until it was no more. I was about to fire again when another BOOM sound went off, and I realized that my cannons were down and broken. "Jack, I'M WAITING!" I screamed, almost panicking. Another muffled sound. I sighed in frustration and loaded up the torpedoes, which we were advised not to use, but now was the time to use them.

"Jack, I do not know if you can hear me, but I'm loading the torpedos… hopefully we don't blow up ourselves up in the process. If you can hear, me, get as far away as I can we torpedoes are fired. If you can't… well, say goodbye to Jenny." For the first time ever, I was scared. I was just in my middle twenties, and joined the resistance to prove I was good at fighting. Now it was time to prove myself. I sat back down, closed my eyes, and pressed the torpedo firing button. It worked. All of the sudden, the ship jerked forward, and I realized we were in hyperspace. We were safe.

Location: D'Qar

BB4 and I hopped out of Quick Silver, onto the luscious planet of D'Qar. We had just returned from a scouting mission from the destroyed Star Killer base, where we were attacked by the struggling First Order. BB4 and I stood for a moment, looking at the forest of the green planet. It was a busy day, pilots (like myself) and generals and such were running around, either going to meetings or going into a fighter get.
