cliffhanger endgames
<> Arha said over the radio, making sure her chin strap was securely fastened and her helmet was properly sealed.

<> Arha snapped, <

There was a certain thrill that came with a proper launch and she did it the way she'd been taught--nice and smooth. The two shuttles were flanked by several other fragments of wings. It was their job to shoot down any missile fire either ship took. Arha sidled up to Evac 1, taking its wing as the rest of the formation solidified. It was an uneventful run until halfway back when missiles started coming in like worms on a shield. Arha grit her teeth as she shot down another and twisted away to go after an enemy fighter intent upon ramming Evac 1. She wasn't satisfied with the near miss at all and struggled to maintain formation, shielding the shuttle craft with her X-Wing as well as shooting down anything incoming. She worked with the pilots, her mind racing to predict and interpret from her Jed-Eye and Bene Gesserit senses.
Arha had no idea how long she'd been at this, but it was getting to the point where she was actually sweating--something she rarely did thanks to her control of her body. She cursed in Fremen as a swarm of TIE fighters closed in.
