Waiting in the sky
He was living the Outer Rim and Levantine life. Jared knew that it was what his father would have been doing had he lived a different life. The Oasis was helping move Jedi children around, but also providing jump off points for those who were working the Rim to protect lost pilots and help those impoverished worlds as best they could.
He was out here, testing his flight with his new heavily modified Z-95 Headhunter. Not the old TIE Exalt he had, that was on the Oasis along with the Pulsar. This fighter was more a riff on some of the racing Z-95s and some historic ships. A belly mounted triple blaster, ion cannon on the port wing, but still the standard two blaster cannons, and updated engines. An internal droid brain…
The challenge? It was currently being refueled on the station.
And why was that a challenge? Outside there came in a Marauder-class corvette intent on taking this station and disabling it, either to rob it or rob the planet below. The Knight Errant was looking through the ship list, and Hopper was doing his best to hack and move his ship up in the automated refuel list.
That wasn’t going to happen.
Klaxons were blaring and calls for battle stations as other pilots were making their way to their own ships. His lightsaber and skills weren't going to do well unless they started boarding. He needed that fighter.
