AS LUKE piloted his X-Wing, a thought came into his head. A single thought about something, or rather about someone.
"Freya," Luke says softly.
He hadn't a clue why he was thinking of her, especially during the battle, but for whatever reason that smuggler was on his mind. However, Luke shook it off real quick when he heard blasts from outside his ship.
"Red Group, this is Red Leader. Rendezvous at mark six point one." Red Leader says over the headset.
"This is Red Two," Wedge spoke, "Flying towards you."
"Red Three, standing by." Biggs says.
"Red Leader, this is Base One. Keep half your group out of range for the next run." Dodonna says through the headset.
"Copy, Base One." Red Leader says, "Luke, take Red Two and Three. Hold up here and wait for my signal to start your run."
Luke nods his head.
The X-Wing fighters of Luke, Biggs, and Wedge fly in formation high above the Death Star's surface.
Luke peers out from his cockpit.
Two X-Wings moves across the surface of the Death Star. Red Leader's X-Wing drops down to the surface leading to the exhaust port.
Red Leader looks around to watch for the TIE fighters. He begins to perspire.
"This is it!" Red Leader shouts.
Red Leader roams down the trench of the Death Star as laser streaks across the black heavens. A huge remote-control laser cannon fires at the approaching Rebel fighters.
The Rebel fighters evade the Imperial laser blasts.
Red Ten looks around for Imperial fighters, "We should be able to see it by now."
From the cockpits of the Rebel pilots, the surface of the Death Star streaks by, with Imperial laserfire shooting towards them
"Keep your eyes open for those fighters!" Red Leader shouts.
Red Ten shouts back, "There's too much interference!"
Three X-Wing fighters move in formations down the Death Star trench.
"Red Five, can you see them from where you are?" Red Ten's voice sounded panicked.
Luke looks down at the Death Star surface below, "No sign of any-," He then noticed, "Wait!"
Red Ten looks up and sees the Imperial fighters.
"Coming in point three five!" Luke yells.
The three TIE fighters, Vader flanked by the two wingmen, dive in a tight formation. The sun reflects off their dominate solar fins as they loop towards the Death Star's surface.
