Transport - Rosiana
'Yui Hirasawa...Yui Hirasawa...Yui...'
Yui grumbled as she drifted back and forth between the sleep world, the spiritual world with the Force, and the real world. "Ugh..." She muttered - Trying to stay AWAKE was hard...Especially hard now that she was declared a Force User for the Rebel Alliance. A 'fallback' should Luke ever perish.
Unlikely, but it could happen. Emphasis on the word: COULD.
Yui eventually got up after trying to convince her body to rest, which it refused to do for some strange reason.
Yui sighed. "Great...I'm awake and I can't get to sleep..." She looked around.
Everyone else on the transport was asleep - Or trying to. The calmness of the engines was almost pure bliss to some, VERY annoying to others.
Yui reached into her pocket and pulled out a communicator. "Azusa?"
A few seconds later the voice of her beloved came through. "Yeah?"
Yui looked out of the window-like shape in the transport. Straight at Azusa's X-Wing. "I've been thinking...Should we, really, be helping the Alliance?"
Azusa's head turned towards the transport as she turned the engines off on her X-Wing. She waved towards Yui. "Yes, we should. It may be hard, but its better than being used by them idiots at the Empire...Bloody scum"
Yui giggled, earning Azusa's questionable look. "What did I say to make you laugh that much?"
Yui smiled. "You called the Empire, scum. I don't think I've heard you use that kind of language...In a LONG time if ever"
Azusa sighed. "You certainly know when to push buttons...Anyway, I hear we're gonna be meeting up onboard the Liberty. You coming?"
Yui nodded. "Yeah, I mean, I have to meet Luke after all. And organize the fall-back plan with him. There's that...And I think, wait, you're flying for the Rebellion aren't you?"
Azusa sighed again, "Well, yeah. Can't have them on their own...They might cause trouble for everyone"
Yui lowered her head. "Oh dear..."
Azusa blinked, looking over at her from her X-Wing. "What?"
Yui looked over to Azusa, "You might be involved in a major battle with them soon and...and...I-I don't want to lose you"
Azusa smiled at her. "You won't"
Yui blinked. "How can you be so sure?"
Azusa smirked as she thought of something good to say to her. "Because I won't let it happen. I love you too much you dummy"
Yui frowned. "I'm not a dummy..."
"DUMMY!" Azusa laughed.
Yui smiled after a few moments. Azusa and herself had been so put out lately that it was nice to finally be able to talk to each other and be at harmony. The next time they would meet planet-side, she would talk to her about moving to a planet and settling down.
The sheer thought had her red in the face.
Ui, who had been sleeping for quite some time, steadily woke up and looked around. "Onee-chan?"
Yui looked over and walked over to her sister. "Hey Ui, how did you sleep?"
Ui yawned. "Not bad...You?" She stretched.
Yui sighed. "About as good as I can really. What with everything going on"
Ui nodded as she got up and stretched her legs. "It's been awhile since I defected and found you...I'm just glad I have"
Yui smiled at her. "It's nice we're almost back together again. As an entire family...I think-" Yui trailed off as her thoughts went back to Azusa and the plans she had to ask her...Making her go pink again.
Ui smiled. "Are you thinking what I THINK you're thinking?"
Yui shook her head. "No..."
Ui faked a sad smile. "Awww, I was looking forward to having Azusa as part of the family"
Yui's bright pink face had Ui in laughter.
'Bingo!' Ui thought to herself.
"Al...Alright you got me" Yui lowered her head even though she was still glowing pink.
Ui smiled at her older sister. "It's alright Onee-chan. I just was curious is all"
Yui smiled albeit not as warmly. "Eheheh..." She put a hand behind her head. "So...When you were working for the Empire, did you ever come across...Was what her name...The girl with glasses-"
"Nodoka?"
Yui clicked her fingers. "YES! Nodoka! How is-" She saw Ui lower her head. "Oh...I'm sorry"
Ui shook her head. "No...I just wish I had been there for her. But not even I can take out the Emperor and Lord Vader at the same time. They're just too powerful"
Yui took in a deep breath and sighed. "True"
Yui took a big long look at the Medical Frigate and nodded to herself more than anything.
"I'm going to need to be on that ship in the future...Want to join me Ui?"
Ui nodded. "If it helps you Onee-chan, I'll do it"
Yui smiled. "Thank you"
Ui took her sister's hand in hers. "You're welcome"
A few months later the Rebel Fleet had amassed something of a colossal scale. Fighter Squadrons were organized and complex. Azusa even had ten fighters under her own detachment. Nearly everything was gearing up for a massive assault on what the Empire had built:
The Second Death Star.
Azusa readjusted her flight suit as she stood looking at her X-Wing in the Liberty's hanger bay. "It isn't going to be easy..." She whispered to herself. She shivered and took in a deep breath and exhaled deeply. "This is going to be hell...But if we can pull through...We'll be on better ground - With those...Bastards"
"Hey, you're Azusa right?"
Azusa glanced at Ritsu who had some kind of flight suit on. "That's right, you're Ritsu?"
Ritsu nodded. "Looks like I've gotta follow you on this one. Don't let me down, kiddo, I've got things I need to protect as well"
Azusa nodded. "Don't worry. I won't"
Yui meditated in her room when there was a knock on the door.
Yui opened her eyes.
"Hmmm?" She yawned and looked around, "Yeah?"
Luke Skywalker walked in and closed the door behind him. "I could hear you meditating from out there"
Yui went to stand up but Luke waved at her that it was okay. "Don't worry - I understand you wanted to talk to me?"
"Yeah..." Yui nodded. "As you know, I'm a Force User. I'd like to learn what you know - Just in case"
Luke shook his head. "It would be better if we tried what we could. We'll never know for sure unless we try, right?"
Yui smiled. "Try not"
They both chuckled. "Do. Or do not, there is no try"
Around 4 days later the Alliance was ready at the hyperspace point.
Azusa gulped as she held her X-Wing steady. "This isn't going to be easy..."
'Remember Azusa, you have my support. Just remember, talk to me if you get scared'
Azusa nodded. "Okay Yui" She smiled and then focused. This was going to be a difficult time in her life...I mean, what would YOU do if you were at the same moment? Azusa carried on regardless.
"All craft, stand by to Hyperspace on my mark"
"Alright, Standby!"
Azusa glanced at the Millenium Falcon as everything about it came into her mind; how sleek the craft looked, how heavily modified it was, how it was so...Perfect in almost every way.
"Blue 6! You awake in there?"
Azusa smiled. "That I am Mio, are you nervous?"
"I am-"
"Alright, enough chatter. Here we go!"
And within a flash, they were in Hyperspace - Headed for Endor.
Imperial Fleet - Endor
Nodoka walked around the Main Star Destroyer (that followed the Super Star Destroyer) and nervously checked the list again and again. "I can't get this wrong...But my friends are with the Alliance..." She leaned against a wall and tried to slow her breathing down.
"The Rebels are coming out of Lightspeed!"
Nodoka froze. 'Shit...' She shook her head. "I've got to be ready for this...This is gonna be hell...I'm sorry Ui..." She whispered.
Nodoka walked to the front of the destroyer and nodded. "Alright, everyone prepare yourselves. Follow Admiral Piett's Super Star Destroyer as quietly as you can. Do NOT make a mistake, do I make myself clear!?"
"YES MA'AM!"
The Battle of Endor
"All Wings Report In"
Azusa looked to her squadron leader and pressed the button to indicate her wingmen and her were all in. "Ready, sir!"
"Alright, I'll tell Gold Leader"
Azusa nodded and looked to the wingman near her. "This is going to be hell...Just be careful alright Blue 6?"
Azusa bit her lower lip. "This is going to be hell...You're right there Blue 4"
As the Rebel Fleet got closer to the Death Star...Something was wrong. It became apparent to Azusa that the Millenium Falcon (Gold Leader) was slowing down...
"Something's wrong..." Azusa whispered, feeling her throat tighten up.
"Break off the attack, the shield's still up!" Azusa's blood went cold the moment she heard Lando's voice over the intercom. The shield was...STILL UP!?
"I get no reading, you sure?"
"Pull up! ALL CRAFT PULL UP!"
Azusa was in a panic as she tried to move her X-Wing the way Admiral Ackbar's ship ordered her to.
"IT'S A TRAP!"
As she pulled her X-Wing around she almost froze in fear - So many Tie Fighter's! It was like a sea of black against all the stars...Scratch that...There were no stars.
As the battle began...Azusa moved her ship as fast and as quickly as she could. "DOWN!" She barked as three wingmen came alongside her, going down, as ordered.
Azusa had her head in deep sweat as she blasted the Tie Fighters. But for each 1 that she managed to shoot down, around 30 would take its place!
"There's too many of them!"
"Draw their attack speed! Draw their fire away from the cruisers!"
"Copy Gold Leader!"
Battle of Endor - Part 2
Azusa glanced to the left as the Death Star II started to light up. "Oh fuck no..."
Before any of her squadron could say anything (who were still in the cruiser Liberty) they were all killed as the Death Star II's laser fired and sliced into the side of the Liberty - Blasting it to thousands of pieces.
Dodging another piece of debris from the now destroyed Liberty - Azusa screamed. "NO!"
Azusa hit her controls as her droid moved the X-Wing away from another Tie Fighter coming straight for her. "Nononono!"
This was hell...And the Battle was just getting into its next phase...
Medical Frigate - Main Rebel Fleet
Yui bounced up from her meditating position and looked out of the window at all the hell that the Rebel Fleet was in.
"My god..."
She saw the pieces of destroyed ship as the Second Death Star lit up and blew up another Rebel Ship.
"No...This isn't...Even possible..."
She could feel all the people dying on each ship that was destroyed and she couldn't shake it...
The feeling of the Dark Side.
Over on the Second Death Star she could sense Luke, Vader and the Emperor. The Emperor having the biggest effect on her mind...
'Betray them...'
Yui blinked. "Did..."
'Betray your friends...Lower the shields'
Yui shook as Ui entered the room. "You okay Sis?"
Yui looked to Ui as the younger Hirasawa raced to her sister and grabbed her shoulders. "Are you alright Onee-chan!? What's wrong?"
'You have no power. And your friends will not survive...There is no escape'
Yui closed her eyes and in her mind's eye she could see the Emperor - Tormenting her.
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"
Evil maniacal laughter had her frozen in place while Ui kept trying to get through to her. "Yui! YUI!"
Ui glanced at the control panel near them and raced to it. "AZUSA! AZUSA!" She hollered into it.
A moment later the response came, "OWCH! Ui! I'm kinda busy here!"
Another explosion outside the ship had Ui in a panic.
"Onee-chan is screaming! I don't know what to do! I can't even-"
"Let me talk to her!"
Ui nodded and passed Yui the speaker. "Yui, Azusa wants to say something!"
'Kick your younger sister...Prove you are the one in charge-'
Yui kicked Ui to the side and grabbed the speaker. "Azu...Azusa?"
"OWCH!"
"Yui! Listen to me! You can overcome him! Remember what happened before!? YOU CAN DO THIS!"
Yui blinked and was still trying as the audio from Home One came through, "THE SHIELD IS DOWN! COMMENCE ATTACK ON THE DEATH STAR'S MAIN REACTOR!"
'You will listen to me...Kill Ui and take over that frigate'
Yui shook her head. "I'll NEVER hurt her! You can NEVER WIN!"
'Then you will die'
Yui felt her reality fail her as she collapsed, the panel falling to the ground with her, she hit her head against the wall as she hit the floor resulting in a nasty smacking sound.
"Yui? YUI!"
Ui grabbed the panel. "She's okay Azusa! I'm sure it's just the stress of everything. You go and join the attack"
"But..."
"I'm sure it's what Yui would've wanted"
"Okay. Just promise me you'll look after her 'till I get to you?"
"I will. Promise"
Ui switched off communications and picked up her older sister and lay her on the bed. "Honestly Onee-ch-" She looked to the medical screen that had a red line on it. "No..." She felt her eyes widen as she pressed an alarm. "We've got another one!" She shouted as medical droids tended to her sister...
Hopefully, they wouldn't be too late...
