The assassination team dropped out of light speed just before the hyper lane entrance that Girto's escort squad was heading towards.
Immediately, at the command of their leader, the captains of each ship and the individuals controlling the suicide drones took up their position in a dome shaped formation.
They barely managed to finish getting set up when the Alliance Police and mercenary vessels that were their targets made their appearance.
Everything was as the stealth probe had transmitted.
There were five Alliance Police ships, one light cruiser and four corvettes, and another four mercenary craft.
"Concentrate sixty percent of the drones on the light cruiser, and we're going to engage it to take its fire." The assassins' leader ordered.
