After breakfast, Honey was allowed to walk the castle a bit while Rancis had some time with his daughter. He felt so proud of Lucy starting her kingdom. She had several planets and colonies under her control which she seemed to care about. Honey made her way to the main hangar where she saw a lone battle droid struggling to lift something heavy, something pill shaped and green colored. She rushed over to the droid and helped it out
"Thank you miss potts, pleasure to meet you, queen Lucy likes talking about you"
"She does?" Honey asked a little surprised
"Oh sure, you're one of those people she really trusts. Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Rb117"
"Nice to meet you. So what is this thing and where's it going?" Honey asked
117 led her to a droid gunship and loaded it into a missile pod.
"This here's going to the pony planet, they're complaining food isn't growing. This is filled with some special mixture Queen Lucy made in her lab, just shoot it in the ground and it'll make crops grow fast. With the queens food demand they'll need this"
"I heard she rejected their plea for independence" said Honey
"They don't fully trust her. Queen Lucy believes if she gives one colony independence they'll all want it, then us being here would mean nothing. As much as they refuse to believe it the colonies need us. Dangers are hidden out here, snuck in during the coding. Pirates, raiders, monsters, they're out there. But we can take them. Thanks for the help" said 117
Honey went to the trainer x wing to wait for rancis when she saw a burning droid gunship crash into the hangar. Black and yellow colored droids rushed in with hoses, but they didn't really look good at their job, despite eventually putting out the fire
"Hope all her droids aren't this dumb" said Honey to herself
Rancis came back not too long after with Lucy who changed her outfit, she wore a light blue colored version of her dress from yesterday now. She hugged her daddy goodbye promising to be home for dinner before turning to leave.
"Alright honey, time to get back to the city, start from phase one" said Rancis
"Come on, can't we fly up here?" Honey asked
"You're not ready for space flight" said Rancis
"Sure I am. Let me show you my skills" said Honey
Rancis agreed to let her prove herself, and let her take off from the hangar. She showed off some flips and spins around the station, as well as several other moves rancis told her to demonstrate. She even flew in perfect formation with some droid tri fighthers and vultures.
"Impressive, how do you know all this stuff?" Rancis asked
"Your son taught me many things when he worked for me. Also I spent a lot of time in the simulators at the imperial flight academy. I'm up to date with all these capital ships as well as the imperials ships" said Honey
"Return to the city at once. I want to know what you know about these ships" said Rancis
Honey did what she was told, and upon returning to Rancis' airfield, he quizzed her on various ships. Rancis showed her a star destroyer and asked her to name the weak points to destroy it.
"Take our the reactor on the bottom as well as the 2 dome shield generators on the bridge, then take out the command deck." Said Honey
"Correct. Tell me about these ships"
Rancis showed her some pictures of different tie fighters.
"Sienar systems tie line of starfighters. Tie fighter, interceptor, bomber. Very cheap and expendable ships, the bomber is more armored but slow. The interceptor is fast but has all the same problems as the normal tie" said Honey
"Impressive. Now tell me what you can about my daughters ships" said Rancis as he gave her some pictures of lucys ships
"Vulture droid, simple like the tie and dangerous in numbers. Droid tri fighter, made for dogfighting and very capable ship. Lucrehulk, trade federation ship, heavy battleship and mainly designed to carry cargo and freight. Muunificent, banking clan ship. Heavily armed but weak in the bridge if shields are low, common clone wars ship yet I still don't know what the clone wars is, or a separatist. Providence-
"Ok I get it you're smart. My son teach you all this?" Rancis asked
"I was taught about these ships at the imperial flight academy. In case lucy needs to be overthrown they taught me about all she had. They said her stuff was outdated, is that true?" Honey asked
"To an extent. But if my daughters using droids she must know what she's doing. I'm assuming you have combat training?" Rancis asked
"Was the top of my class in that regard as well as the studying. I aced all the simulations and saved a fellow pilots life before I left." Said Honey
"Then I can't believe I'm saying this, but there's really not much I can teach you you probably don't know. All you really need is a final combat test" said Rancis
"Wow really?" Honey asked
"Yep, and I have just the game. I wanna see what you got. Surprise me. There are 3 licenses I can give you, the best one you have to pass all the tests to get, it'll let you fly anything" said Rancis
"Then what're we waiting for? I got a bucket list item to finish" said Honey
Rancis took her into the Internet and took her to a website full of emulators. He took her to the game Star Wars rogue squadron 2, and picked out a level labeled Battle of Endor.
"This will be the perfect final test, you'll be given your objectives for licenses during gameplay. Beat all 3 objectives for the best. If you ever feel like you're about to die, hit the panic button and you'll be sent back here no problem. You know where it is right?" Rancis asked
"Of course I do" said Honey
"Then good luck"
Rancis shoved her in the level and honey found herself in an x wing with a bunch of other rebel ships. A button started flashing on her console
"All craft, prepare to jump into hyperspace"
Honey pushed the button and went into light speed, it was a strange feeling she thought. She came out of hyperspace with the fleet over an earth like planet, and in front of her was a planet sized space station under construction
"What the heck is that thing? Wait, don't I know this story? One of moms bedtime stories maybe. What am I saying?" Honey asked herself
"Break off the attack. Pull up, all craft pull up"
All the ships in front of her turned away from the space station, and she followed suit. She was horrified seeing over a dozen star destroyers and a super star destroyer behind the fleet. Her targeting computer showed hundreds of tie fighters approaching. She was scared
"Rancis if you can hear me you're more crazier than Lucy!"
