Three mining lasers shot out of the Hulk class mining ship in to an asteroid along with three other Covetor class mining vessels mining similar asteroids A Caldari Badger Mark II Industrial Ship sits by above the ships collecting the ORE that the mining ships cut out. A Rokh battleship sits by near the field with three Crusader interceptors, two Thrasher destroyers one above and below the mining ships, and a Thorax cruisers flying by the asteroids scanning for more useful rocks. On board the Rokh there were two men at the command center of the Bridge. An old man, with brown skin with white hair and somewhat bald along with a, white skinned young man with brown hair of the Caldari race. “Well this is looking good.”

“Yes it is sir. The mining ships and Badger report their cargo bay is about half full. The amount of ISK we will earn when we sell it is” He looks at his screen and finds an impressive number. “About 359,000,000.00 ISK sir… rounded down.”

“Good. This is good. Well it’s nice to know in your old age you can still command your men Jarien.”

“Yes sir yes I can..” Jarien is interrupted by a green light on his compute saying Comms Audio only.

“Sir it’s the Thorax, we found something.

“This is James Marr. What did you find?”

“Marr sir! We don’t know. Whatever it is… it’s old.”

“Take it back to the P.O.S. and run a scan on it see if you can..” James was cut off with an alarm and a Comm popping up.

“This is the Crusade of hell! We have a Defiance interceptor squad of seven coming out of warp along with a Nighthawk.”

“WHAT? Get your men on those interceptors now!”

“Yes sir AUGH…” Red text pops up saying Comm Lost

Another comm channel opens “James we just lost lead Crusade the other two are attacking the interceptors and our destroyers are engaging the interceptors as well but they are way too fast.”

“OK OK OK! Start getting our miners out NOW! I want that badger back home. Jarien get back P.O.S with that Thorax I don’t need the elderly here.”

Jarien took the order and ran off to the port side airlock to a docking Thorax along with other crewmen. All three Covetor class miners got out. The Badger was destroyed in the first attack. The destroyers are attacking the Nighthawk. The Rokh is jammed and unable to target.

“All units checking sir.”

“Carful Matt. That Rokh may be jammed but if we lose our grasp then we may loss this battle.”

“Flowers we failed to kill those miners”

“But we did kill that badger”

“SIR Permission to attack the crusades?”

“Granted.”

“Thank you. Let’s go guys!” Matt take’s his Taranis to attack a Crusade along with a Crow and a Wolf to take on the other Crusade.

“This is Flowers I need support on the bottom destroyer it’s hitting me hard AGUH SHILDS ARE DOWN!  I’M HIT!” A wreck of an interceptor flies out away from the Rokh in to an asteroid.

“Flowers this is matt we just took out there fighters. Commander Flowers… please respond.”

Suddenly a large shot is fired from the Rokh

“James Marr we our weapons systems are back online! Shields are down Armor is just about full and…” James interrupted the controller

“Good target that Nighthawk have the destroyers take out the interceptors.”

“Sir the destroyers just took out two more interceptors.”

“Savor of night we need orders. Flowers is dead. Who is lead?” Matt reported.

“Matt you are lead for now we need you to take out that Rokh if you can’t jam them.” A loud exposing is heard on the radio as the nighthawk is hit with a long rail gun.

Matt did not know what to think but he had no time. “ All ships on me full speed orbit around that Rokh I will get the destroyers.”

To Matt’s order the four remaining interceptors attack the Rokh as Matt flies straight down in to a wall of gun fire.

“Savor of night I need you to take out the bottom destroyers’ shields I will finish it off.”

Suddenly a large shot is fired and hits the Thrasher taking out its shields. And without them Matt was able to rip the Thrasher apart. That same thing happened to the other Thrasher but it ran off when Matt was less the a kilometer away.

“SIR HULL BREACHES! THE SHIP IS FALLING APART!” Panic and screaming started to overtake the large battleship as the ship falls apart around them.

One shot from the Nighthawk aimed straight for the Rokh’s bridge is fired.

“Oh son of a” The bridge is hit hard as the rest of the ship falls apart and explodes in to flames and twisted metal.
