Chapter 5 - fire and brimstone

General bridger log stardate 2175 I have just dropped my wife and first officer sabine back at our room and I then enter the command deck and the deck officer says attention general on deck and all the bridge crew get out of there seat and stand at attention deck officer say were awaiting orders and I say atease men man your stations and prep for the resupply we got 8hr till it arrives and set the fleet to red alert and hail our extra fleet of mon cal ships (mon cala peoples fleet which consists of 20 mc 30 class frigates and 30 mc 40 destroyers and 4 mc -75 cruisers and 2 mc-90 heavy cruisers and 8 mc-80 libertys and 2 home one-types) and tell them to go to red alert then the first mc-30 that had just moved into position gets cracked in half and then we see the giant green drone fleet slowly dropping but the first drone corvette nailed that mc-30 with its ventral guns and then patch in to full fleet coms and say all ships red alert raise main shield link them up like batteries in sink then all the ships shake as the shields raise up over the fleet its pretty much a giant bubble protecting the ships then the hell fire starts I order all ship full ahead and get between those ships and the planet then I watch the fleets engines start to light up and begin moving into position then I say fire then the officer a few feet from me says it as well as do all the other captains and then hell breaks loose and laszzers are flying in every direction then sabine wakes up from her nap and I senses her walking up here to help manage our efforts then a neb-b get anilated right next to the resolute and shook the ship and did minor damage to our shields then my wife/ sabine walks into the bridge and asks what going on I say we engaged the green drone fleet then me and sabine both grasp the holo table as the resolute is hit by about 3 turbo lazzer round shields are down to 75% were substanceing minor damge a officer say all guns focus fire on the first vessel thats in range yes sir the weapons officer says fire at will and then the lead ship of the mon cala peoples fleet say there taking heavy fire and I look at sabine and say whose turn is it I think it yours she said ok I run off to my gauntlet and order the resolute to scramble its fighters and tell wedge to follow me out yes sir the air traffic officer says then we all exit the hangar bays on the resolute and I say all squadrons from up on me then I begin ordering the squadrons there target red ,blue and phoenix , wedge keep those fighters off our cruisers all other squads follow me were going in then wedge breaks off with his fighter group and the rest are now on route to attack the green drone star destroyers (the drone officer director krinik pov) I watch the holo live feed of the battle and I notice that the command ship the resolute just has launched fighters and 5 squadrons and a mando'a gauntlet are heading straight toward us I scream scramble garrisons are you blind (back to Ezra's pov) we got contact point .06 one of my wing men say and then I say lock s-foils in attack position then all wings report in green squadron reporting in gray squadron reporting in,selito squadron reporting in , saber squadron reporting in ,gold squadron reporting in ,purple squadron reporting in alright gray and green squads take out those fighter gold and purple and selito and saber start attacking the drone star destroyers yes general they say oh and gold squad I will be with you on your approach we then all go into separate channels but wedges group has better luck destroying the fighter our mission is more difficult wedge dose his mission then comes to assist us then sabine patches in from the resolutes bridge and says the drone ships are preparing to jump to light and jacks reinforcements are 30 seconds away then my radar goes off and jack fleet of 8 neb-b frigate and 10 cr-90 class corvettes and 8 pelta class transport and 5 gr-75 transports come out of light speed and out flank and destroy 3 more drone ships and the rest of the drone fleet jumps to light speed in shambles and I order the fighters back to the resolute and any other carrier classed ships in our fleet and then I just have landed my gauntlet and wedge and a lot of the other squadron leader land near me and we all walk up to the bridge to get sabine to go celebrate our victory we all walk in and I say status report she hand me a data pad says minor hull damage and a few minor system will need to be replaced and some of our guns need maintenance and the fleet need reforcements and repairs ok I set the pad down and kiss her and I get some wissels from the pilot leader even though me and her are married I say canit boys and they stand at attention jack and his first officers pelta then docks with the resolute and we all then walk off the bridge and sabine say rex your in command till we get back yes general rex says and then she runs off to catch up with everyone we all then arrive at the air lock and say attention grand admiral on deck he and his first officer then walk out to see the welcoming comittiy and he said at easse everyone and then me and sabine walk forward to welcome them to the resolute and jack and I shake hands as do sabine and jane then us and wedge and all the squadron leaders and we all are walking to the cantina onboard we all enter and I buy everyone a glass or 2 of mando'a wine and 3 shots anything more everyone will have to pay for me and jack are talking about strategy and our lives and our wives are chatting with the 2 female squadron leader then jacks wife jane walks up and kicks him square in the nuts and me and sabine watch jack fall to the floor and he coughs up alittle blood and asks what was that for and she says for dubole crossing the fleet and betrraying everyone me and sabines faces go shocked and we ask jack if this was true and he says yes but I have a reason they offerted around 10 million for the capture of Ezra, sabine bridger dead or alive so I gave up the fleets position I only wanted the money so me and jane could live a good life after the war oh Ezra said and sabines face turned sour honey could you take jane to our room and you and her can play with mira Ezra said ok sabine said come jane lets leave these 2 to talk sabine winked at me as she left and I turned to jack and said I see your reasoning but why we are friends I could have just given you a pay raise I know he said and I could sense jack felt guilty and I called his wife back in here and sabine followed her though it was no secret cause I could sense her presences.

generals Ezra Bridgers log stardate 2177 I order all ships to dock and I tell my daughter Mira to close the channel she does and I also tell her to dock us at 3/4 impulse I then order the engineers to prep the airlocks and the gunners start to reset the cannons to a full charge and recycle the shields yes sir the tactics officer the ship then shakes as it docks the repair drones begin building new ships nd repairing the fleet we dock and I tell miMirand hope not to tell their mother or she will kill me but when we get to the airlock sabine was waiting there with her arms crossed and she looked at me with a protective look on her face and hope ran and hugged her but she looked at me and Mira and walked up and grabbed me and Mira by our ears and said you nitwits what were you thinking you could have both gotten hurt don't worry I said we were safe and I let Mira fly the resolute and then we were attacked ok she performed very well and rex was even impressed. well she is our daughter sabine said well should we go to the mess hall whos hunger I say and mira hope and sabine raise their hands alright then sabine lets go of me and mira and say let's go we all walk off to the mess and I walk in form and so does sabine and even mira even though she doesn't have to and cute little hope was trying to walk like us we walk past some recruits and we then grab our food and take a seat but tomorrow I must go to recruit training to help rex train the new recruits because he just needs a bit of help with this batch alright bedtime my wife says I say alright girls your mothers wright it's late and I have a job tomorrow with your grandfather rex ok I say and the girls say ok Father and we all start walking to our cabin on our station me and sabine put the girls to bed and then we hit the hay ourselves I wake up the next morning and get in my generals uniform without waking up my wife and the kids and walk to the mess hall and see rex there and I grab my food and go sit over there with morni general he said and stood at attention I said atease rex yes sir he says so what's on the schedule today in recruit training and what do need help with I ask there are some recruits in the group I am training that are way more undisciplined than you were when you joined up oh I said so you want me to knock some discipline into them then so me and rex then walk to the training room and all the recruits form ranks and rex starts his letchter and then he says today we will be being supervised by general Ezra bridger (Ezra pov) I then walk out of the shadows the 4 that were goofing off then stare at me and one says how is he a general loud enough for rex to hear it and rex snaps at him and says cause he has been with us for 6-12 years and is more powerful than all 4 of ya is that so they all say in unison I would like to see that absolutely not rex says I wave my hand at rex and say no rex its fine then I then walk over the shooting range then the( air qoutes) crack shot of the group walks over then rex also walks over and a crowd gathers around and rex says being we both start shoot targets and hes a more trigger happy one he hits less targets I have charge in my gun still and hit the same amount the general has won so the score is general 1 and the 4 amegos 0 then we would move over to the mele combat there will be 1v 2 and I walk on and pull out my dubble bladed saber ( one blade purple the other is green ) and I activate it and got into form 3 the 2 that were chosen grab the metal training poles that were lightsaber proof and the crowd cheered for me as the trubble makers made there way onto the mat and got in a broken form 2 stance then silence hits the room but I keep my stance and then they start to get inpasaint and a bit nervis and they lower there guard and as they start to slowly walk around me I may be blind but I can still since you then one of the charges at me and I lock my purple blade with his spear and the other also charges at me and I lock my green blade with his spear I then use the force and push them away and knock them both out cold and the crowd looked shocked none of the Recruits that rex was training even knew I was a jedi as you can see rex said the general is more than capable with dealing with you fools so now its general 3 and the 4 amigos 0 and the general wins and now the general will say a few words (general bridgers pov) I suggest you all listen and pay attention to the Lieutenant commander rex or I will be paying a visit back here and making another example of a few of you sir yes sir they all say I
