BL Loki: We failed!
Dr. Doom: We have done
nothing of the sort! Reconfigure
weaponry by ten degrees! I want this
done now!!!
The automatons
feverishly reroute the thrusters of the space station. For each degree the Death Star needs to move,
it will only take two minutes.
Dr. Doom: Ten minutes!
We only need ten minutes and the Slaves are no more!
T-Minus
20 Minutes. . .
Dameron: Another run BB-8! Expect company any minutes!
BB-8 chirps.
Dameron: Company has
arrived? Where?!?!
Wedge Antilles: Right here, flyboy!
Dameron: Wedge!
Antilles: This is where I belong! I’m kinda’ hurt you didn’t call me over in
the first place, but here I am anyway.
Dameron: Wouldn’t have it any other way, Wedge. Sorry.
Let’s get this done!
T-Minus
17 Minutes. . .
BL Loki: There are two of them now!
Dr. Doom: Still but ticks on the rear of a pig.
BL Loki: You may think them ticks, but they foiled our
initial plans. We still have nine
minutes before the Death Star is rerouted and is operational.
Dr. Doom: Precisely, but a mere nine minutes.
T-Minus
15 Minutes. . .
Dameron: Are you properly equipped?
Antilles: All of the Resistance X-Wings were equipped
with Jor-El’s modified weaponry. The
torpedoes should be able to cause some severe damage and the lasers some havoc.
Dameron: Are we taking both ports?
Antilles: Affirmative.
The X-Wings fly
parallel to one another, headed toward their respective goals.
T-Minus
14 Minutes. . .
The turbo thrusters on
the Resistance X-Wings kick in and the two ships throttle to their respective
spots. The two fighters avoid the
volleys of laser fire. They are only
minutes from their ports.
T-Minus
11 Minutes. . .
BL Loki: I’m going to meet the X-Wings!
Dr. Doom: And miss our
victory?!?! Shame on you BL! Shame!
BL Loki: I can’t just stand here and do nothing! I was meant for a higher purpose!
Dr. Doom: You were meant to serve your team: The Royal
Highness; nothing more, nothing less!
You shall stand by me and witness the death of the Slaves!
BL Loki has heard
enough.
BL Loki: Goodbye, Doom. Duty calls elsewhere.
BL Loki hovers and
flies away.
T-Minus
7 Minutes. . .
The X-Wing piloted by
Dameron shakes violently. Dameron attempts
to avoid the repeated constructs being thrown at him by BL Loki.
Dameron: Have some unwanted company now, Wedge!
Antilles: I see him!
I’m on it!
Antilles fires his
lasers at the black lantern. Loki’s ring
bubble protects him from certain doom, but at a cost of knocking him across the
sky.
Dameron: We’re coming up on the ports!
Antilles: On your wing now!
T-Minus
4 Minutes. . .
Dr. Doom hovers above
the console. In four minutes the weapon
will fire upon his enemies.
T-Minus
3 Minutes. . .
Antilles: Check your targeting computer! That’s the ports up ahead!
Dameron: See them!
Watch out for BL Loki!
Antilles: Seventy-five degrees! He’s coming in!
Dameron’s X-Wing barrel
rolls. The pilot then fires his lasers
at BL Loki. Loki takes the brunt of the
X-Wing’s weaponry, but shakes it off a little more easily this time
around. In response, BL Loki fires a
construct at Dameron’s ship. Dameron
narrowly escapes.
T-Minus
2 Minutes. . .
The Death Star’s weapon
begins to crackle as the lasers begin to arrange themselves in the center of
the plated dish. Dr. Doom smiles beneath
his mask.
T-Minus
1 Minute. . .
The Resistance X-Wings
race down the trench. Both fire at their
targeted ports at the same time, sending four specially equipped torpedoes. The X-Wings shoot away. BL Loki knows that this will be the end of
Doom’s Death Star. The black lantern
flies within the station, hoping to reach his teammate in time. BL Loki fails in his attempt.
BOOOOOOOM!!!!!!
The Death Star explodes
into a million particles, taking with it BL Loki, Dr. Doom and the automatons
located within the station. Poe Dameron
and Wedge Antilles have destroyed the Highness’ weapon of mass destruction. Now it is time for the duo to join their
teammates after having accomplished their goal.
Antilles: Hey, something I’m still trying to figure
out. We were all at the Metropolis
Sector. I saw you there. When did you leave?
Dameron: Immediately
after we gathered. Right after I was assigned.
Antilles: Assigned? But, how did you know the Death Star was up
there and ready to destroy our team.
Dameron remains silent,
waiting for Antilles to realize the answer before Dameron responds.
Antilles: Shemalyah.
