In the skies above Yaga Minor, a Y77 Simplexian was hurtling through the air. In it were Joesh Noorm-Nal and Ko Meira, who had barely stolen the ship from the planet below. Now, they were making off with the prize. Joesh swaggered into the cockpit from the hallway. He had been in the turret...

The Simplexian started to float off of the ground, then burst into the sky, quickly getting out of range of the security guns. They had done it! As clouds whipped by them at very high speeds, Joesh let off a whoop of exhilaration. He had his own ship! He fired off a few shots from the turret in...

Joesh pressed the buttons again and again, red lasers lancing out to hit the security guns, but not destroying them. In return, the security guns were firing at the Y77 Simplexian, making it rock back and forth. We may need to abort the mission and abandon the ship. My ship. he started thinking...

Joesh peeked out into the ramp, ready to dodge from any hint of blue, only to see bursts of red lance from the turret into the swarm of droids. A chain of explosions was set off, the bright light making Joesh put his working hand over his eyes. When the glow had faded, Joesh looked at the...

Ko had followed him as he ran to the nearest ship. Gratefully, the ramp was down, so he ran inside as fast as he could, Ko right behind him. When he got to the inside, he stopped. He knew that this was his ship. It just felt so right. Ko hadn't stopped from the majesty of the ship (Maybe she...

After Joesh's perfectly reasonable offer, Lexani started insulting him like some common criminal. "Now, let's not get into namecalling," he started to say, but Lexani cut him off again, saying that she was going to be killed because she was a Republic Senator. "Hey, actually that's great-" he...

Ko ducked below a desk, too, and started exchanging shots with the droids, but she had somehow managed to come up with a plan in all the chaos. She suggested that they get to the ships... the ships! Suddenly the pieces all clicked together in Joesh's head. Transparisteel is less durable than...

Suddenly, he heard a voice exclaim, "Wh-who are you, and what are you d-doing here?!" He whirled around to see an attractive Zeltron female standing with only a bath towel wrapped around her. She grabbed a pipe and held it up to threaten him. "E-explain yourself, you Hutt-spawn, o-or I swear...

Even though Joesh's excuse was very lackluster (and/or totally unbelievable), the droids still believed him. "Affirmative." they replied. "Continue on your way." Again, their luck was holding out. The droids went on their way behind them, and Joesh breathed a huge sigh of relief. He caught Ko...

Space would have been pitch dark, if not for the pinpricks of light that were the stars in the sky. Oh yeah, and the bright flashes of laser fire flashing past Joesh Noorm-Nal's cockpit viewport. Joesh was frantically pressing buttons and flipping levers, urging his to go just a little bit...

When Joesh dropped out of the hatch, he landed to see... nothing. Well, at least no security guards or droids, which he was half-expecting after maybe leading them in the wrong direction. But instead, lining the walls, he saw rows of metal lockers, very practical in design. He had led them to...

Ko worked her magic on the lock, and a green light appeared. Ko pulled the hatch open, revealing a labyrinth of wires and pipes. Through the dimly lit chaos, a cramped, narrow catwalk wound its way into the depths. There was only enough space to crawl on hands and knees on the walkway. Sparks...

Joesh popped around the corner and tried to stay as flat against the wall as he could. He tried to walk inconspicuously, but it's kind of hard to walk inconspicuously and avoid a camera's field of view at the same time. Thankfully, no one walked by on the street at this time of night. The...

Ko had a good idea: if anyone questioned them, Ko would talk about technical stuff and Joesh would talk about piloting. It was actually a good idea. Joesh hadn't thought that any actual people had been in the building; he just assumed that all of the security would be droids. He knew that he...

On Ord Mantell, Joesh Noorm-Nal woke up bright and early and met with Ko Meira at the Cruel Mistress bar at about 0800 hours. Of course, it didn't feel bright because the smog sort of blocked out the sun. Ah, Ord Mantell, he thought. He was carrying his CSR-2A Blaster Pistol and his vibroknife...

Ko left, and Joesh thought about what happened. That went pretty good. He thought that Ko seemed pretty competent. It definitely would be useful to have a mechanic around when hotwiring a ship. As he left, he realized that they had never ordered any drinks. He chuckled to himself as he walked...

As Ko looked over the plans and added some ideas, Joesh nodded and agreed with her. A fight with security would probably be noisy, and the reboot sounded great! When she got to the part about the test pilot uniforms, he grinned. "Perfect!" he exclaimed. "I think we've got ourselves a plan!" He...

The idea that Ko had mentioned, to make it look like they should be there, made Joesh think. How could they look like they belonged? Think, think, think! Suddenly, he had it. Uniforms! What if they got some uniforms in order to look like workers? A rough plan started to form in his mind. "What...

The cat-like being must not have had anything to say. It almost seemed like he had zoned out for a bit. Joesh decided to let him be. He turned back to Ko. "So, here are the plans." He pulled out a datapad and a small diagram of the shipyard popped up as a hologram. He didn't have enough money...

"Those are some very good thoughts, Ko. I think the sensor glitch idea is the most reasonable with our time-frame." He looked almost a little sheepish. "I forgot to mention this before, but I was hoping to steal it within the week. Very soon. That might make it a little more difficult, but we've...
