The bridge of Syn's ship thrummed with a quiet intensity, the holo-map casting a faint blue glow across his face as he stood along with Pako.
His hazel eyes flicked to her, his voice low and steady as he laid out the plan. "The Kingdom's destroyer and five fighters are approc four hours out—closing fast.
They've got us pinned unless we flip this.
You're leading six fighter ships—circle wide around the destroyer, stay off their radar, and wait for my signal to hit their flank. They won't expect an attack that fast from the side, we hit them when they are about to retreat."
Pako tilted her head, her dark eyes narrowing as she absorbed his words, a grin tugging at her lips. "Sneaky—I like it. What else?"
Syn tapped the map, a recon ship's blip pulsing faintly. "I'm sending a pilot to find Aster—update her on the situation, give her new coordinates to regroup at."
