As they made their way down one of the hallways of the Airship, Ratio Tile and Allah Gold were suddenly ambushed by two Abruption destroyer droids. These droids were far more powerful than the average droid, being equipped with their own energy shields and extremely fast firing cannons built into their bodies.

But the Hopeless Situation warriors were up for a fight. "Exterminate them!" shouted Allah gold.

The destroyer droids' cannon shots were all blocked by expert swordsmanship on the part of the two Hopeless Situation Warriors. At the same time, none of the deflected shots were able to penetrate the destroyers' shields. It was a stalemate, but there was no time for stalemates, Saving D the Superior was the number one priority. Seeking to extract themselves from the situation, both Allah Gold and Ratio Tile backed into one of the elevators.

As the doors closed, the pair breathed a small sigh of relief, only to feel the cold steel of several droid rifles pointed against their necks.

"Let go of the weapon, I said let go of," ordered one of the droids in his robotic voice. "Behind of the person, do not push," another droid demanded.

It would take far more than that to intimidate a Hopeless Situation warrior.

A few flashes of light later, every single droid in the elevator was nothing more than a melted hunk of scrap metal. And Allah Gold and Ratio Tile began their ascent to rescue their captured speaker.

Meanwhile, in the hangar, Reach the Man found himself hiding in a corner, trying to avoid being spotted by the two super battle droids which had just appeared. Both of them had been sent to investigate the two Hopeless Situation fighters that had been left behind by Gold and Tile.

Back in the elevator, the lift suddenly ground to a halt.

"Did you let it stopped?" asked Ratio Tile.

Allah Gold responded in the negative. "Have no, is you?"

"I have no."

"We're perhaps stuck to." And with that said, Allah Gold reignited his lightsaber and began cutting into the roof of the elevator.

Ratio Tile wasn't up for anything so dramatic though. If he could contact Reach the Man, then the little droid could help get the elevator moving again. "We must go out everywhere in search of," he told Allah Gold (who was continuing to cut away at the elevator roof.) Then in a radio message to R2 he told the astromech "R2, telephone the steps is here."

But Reach the Man had other things to worry about. The Super Battle Droids were investgating the Hopeless Situation airships just meters way with a thorough interest, and Reach the Man could not afford to be discovered by these programmed killers. When Ratio Tile radioed again with "R2, telephone quickly, the steps is here," Reach the Man had no choice to stuff the radio transponder deep within his body in order to muffle the sound.

Too late. One of the super battle droids heard the commotion. "Is that what things?" asked the killer robot. His comrade, on the other hand, had not heard anything. "Come back," he told the first battle droid just as he was about to go seek out the source of the sound, "there what too have no."

Back on the elevator, Ratio Tile was growing impatient. Why was Reach the Man not responding? Allah Gold continued cutting the roof of the elevator, not waiting for his astromech to respond. Ratio Tile's nerves finally got to him. "R2, do you is fucking?" he snapped into his transponder.

Hearing the usually calm and collected Ratio Tile snap like this lit a flame in Reach the Man. The situation on the elevator had to be serious if Ratio Tile could lose his patience like this. Bravely risking his personal safety, Reach the Man shuffled over to the elevator controls. As this was happening, Allah Gold finally managed to open up an exit in the roof of the elevator. Not waiting for Reach the Man to do his work, Allah Gold used the wish power to leap through the hole he had cut, onto the roof in order to seek a way out of this predicament.

Ratio Tile sighed at the impulsive, brash Hopeless Situation warrior he had trained. "I was old," he muttered under his breath.

And then his whole world collapsed from under him. Reach the Man had managed to reach the controls, but had accidentally sent the elevator into an uncontrolled descent. "STOP! STOP THE BOTTOM R2!" screamed Ratio Tile as he began freefalling.

Allah Gold, who had been standing on top of the elevator as it began falling, quickly jumped and grabbed a ledge. There he hung, unable to pull himself up since the ledge was currently occupied by two Abruption droids. "Raise the hand to, boy!" ordered one of the droids. Allah Gold was a bit scared, but mostly confused as to how the droids wanted him to raise his hands when he was literally hanging from a ledge. Maybe that was their point?

As the elevator continued falling, Ratio Tile continued panicking. "DID YOU HEAR ME R2!" Ratio Tile shouted into his transponder. "LET ELEVATOR RISEN, IS NOT A DESCENT!"

Just in the nick of time, Reach the Man was able to stop the elevator's descent and let it go upwards again. After making sure that he was still alive, Ratio Tile breathed a sigh of relief. "Very good," he told Reach the Man.

But, the situation for the little astromech wasn't very good at the moment. The two super battle droids had found him, and just after he had sent the elevator upwards, one of them grabbed him. "Stupid robot," the super battle droid mocked, perhaps a bit hypocritically.

Reach the Man knew that it was now time for desperate measures. He squirted some of the oil used to lubricate his gears onto the face of the Super Battle Droids. As both of them struggled to see, then ended up slipping on some of the oil which had landed on the ground. Reach the Man activated his rocket boosters, thankful for all the upgrades his owner Allah Gold had given him. The fire quickly lit the oil on fire and started an inferno which quickly consumed the two super battle droids.

As the elevator continued rising, it came back within view of Allah Gold and the two droids trying to capture him. Allah Gold quickly dropped down onto the elevator as it got closer to him. The two droids, thinking he had fallen to his death, mocked him by taunting "Very good." However, their taunts were cut short by the elevator crushing their robotic bodies against the elevator shaft.

As Allah Gold dropped back into the elevator using the hole he had cut a few minutes before, Ratio Tile ignited his lightsaber, only to deactivate it when he saw who it was.

"Is you." Ratio Tile stated.

"What is the row?" asked Allah Gold.

"Always is a R2 to come to," sighed Ratio Tile. After all, Reach the Man had almost gotten them both killed.

Allah Gold did not accept this criticism of his robotic friend. "Do not take the elevator to do the game," he warned his former teacher.

"Is all a disaster that R2 ask for!" Ratio Tile continued giving his honest opinion about the astromech.

"Did you make the ghost?" Allah Gold asked in frustration.

"I what did not do!" Ratio Tile exclaimed.

And then the time for banter and whining was over. The elevator stopped. They were now about to enter the room where D the Superior was held captive. Criticism of other teammates would have to wait until later. There was a job to do.
