Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Crimson Spear. Enjoy the 400- word chapter. I don't own Star Wars, Disney and Lucas arts do.
Tallous watched the battle near Teralov with interest. The Grand Admiral watched the light cruiser's Tie Interceptor's wipe out the small convoy. He was pulled out of his study by Resh as the captain walked up to the holotable.
"Sir?" Tallous spoke as he watched and data flowed in from the attack.
"Sorry, Captain, I was just watching the battle footage to see something, that ship came from Skystrike station, I recognize the markings anywhere.
"Yes sir, Captain Syndulla sent in an agent to extract pilots from the station. Shall we depart there?" Tallous looked at the 2 light cruisers escorting the Leviathan then looked back at Resh.
"Yes, get the fleet ready for battle, I suppose we should show these recruits a real battle."
Sabine, Rake and Antilles flew towards the corvette before a pilot called out.
"Star Destroyer!" Sabine looked over as Leviathan and 2 imperial light cruisers appeared and a dozen tie interceptors dropped out of the destroyer's hanger.
"Grand Admiral, we have a signal from the station." Tallous didn't blink as Governor Pryce sneered at the man from the hologram.
"Governor Pryce, I should have realized a dead, repulsive monster like you was in charge of this, you're the only one this gutless to murder pilots that can't fight back in vacuum.
"You will burn, Tallous and the empire doesn't allow traitors." Tallous cut off the transmission with his comlink.
"Sabine, you have 20 minutes to return and get your defectors before I destroy the station, gunners power ion cannons, Resh, have our interceptors deal with their ties." Resh nodded as the Leviathan and the light cruisers dropped into the atmosphere and flew towards the station. Tallous watched as a single Tie bomber and a Tie interceptor flew out of the hanger. Tallous nodded, understanding that Sabine was gone.
"Fire ion cannons." Tallous said as blue blasts impacted the station, Tallous watched the light cruisers open fire as well and the station burst into flames and began to drop from the sky.
"Goodbye, Governor Pryce, Resh plot a course into hyperspace." Tallous knew almost everyone had escaped the station, he also knew the loss of the station was a great blow to the Empire, he smiled as the Leviathan and its escorts jumped to hyperspace.
Author notes
Ok, I couldn't think of a way to make this chapter longer so I winged it. Until Saturday or next week, Lighting Wolf out!
