It had been a very long time since the Oracle, a lost jedi frigate, had made birth to a port. It and the crew had been missing for some time though from time to time whispers of a ship hitting supply routes were heard around the galaxy though at the same time it was always said afterwards, before help arrived for the supply vessels, that the ship disappeared without a single trace but for the words of the crew who seemed to always be left alive. By their accounts it was always as if the ship that struck was ready to strike without any warning from nowhere. The biggest think people of the vandalized ships always said though was that the boarders were always well trained and the 2 men who always led them in were both of a Jedi or Sith backround.
On this day though a strike would go horribly wrong. Lying in wait in an asteriod field just off a supply route sat the frigate, the Oracle. It had made a name for itself now and had seen a few escort vessels now though following and traveling with the supply ships and for the last month it had only got 1 maybe 2 hits on some supply vessels. It was time to try and take one of the convoys with a bigger vessel and the crew knew this was a big spot to hit cause it was a drop point to go through the belt in order to jump to the next world. As it laid in wait though for hours it seemed as if noone would come.
As though the ship was preparing to move to a new location a ship dropped from hyper space. It was a moderate supply vessel of some sort, freelance by the markings. It was the first they had seen in a while and needing the supplies the commander of the Oracle took a chance. Firing up the engines the ship dropped from its hiding spot in the asteroid field and started towards the ship. As it drew near and tried to establish comms it seemed weird that the ship wasn't responding nor moving into the field but rather just sitting on the edge.
Coming to the edge of the field directly before the supply ship it was then that the strie began. From out of hyper space dropped another ship, another frigate fo some sort with a barriage of missles being unleashed which missed the Oracle by but a few hundred meters, striking a nearby asteroid instead. The explosions rocked the ship enough to startle the crew and the commander.
Needing to rotect his crew Shawn, the commander, ordered an power to the front shields and for all weapons to be fired at the other ship. At this same time Shawn was announcing to have all fighters scrambled and launched as quickly as possible to get in for close combat. Of all the fighters 2 were left open, one for Shawn and one for someone else if he chose to actually fly by Shawns side.
Launching the attack the fighters launched from the ship and began to advance on the other frigate as did the Oracle, moving from its position in the asteroid field to open fire. This was danger beyond belief and with the small squad of fighters weaving to dodge the incoming fire Shawn was getting into his own and launching to catch up to his men. Knowing this might end badly he began to transmit form thei own fighter a call for help as the battle really began to get hairy as he watched 1 then 2 of his fellow fighter pilots explode just infront of his own fighter.
