It had all started out as a simple plan to simply jack some new ships...
Well, maybe not new ones but still ships. Although witnesses may have sworn he was drunk, from the way he assumed both a swagger of 'alcohol induced' arrogance and the lack of coordination in his stride, he was very much in control of himself. He might've had a touch of alcohol in his system, but nothing he could feel, and thus, found his way back to his ship quite easily. However he just really needed to have it launch itself. Scaling the ladder with a smooth efficiency born from days of working them when techies were not available, Liaison walked over to his cockpit. Despite the lockdown there were still ways out, as the section of the station (Not caused by bombing) but currently sealed off showed. Something must have been destroyed causing a decompression of the area.
Thus.
Someone blew the doors (Or wall) Out of an area of the station. How they did that wasn't part of his current knowledge, but it did prove it could be done. And so..
It took a few minutes of concentration and deciding how to get the job done. First he set his computer to begin a firing pattern at the bay doors of the hanger. Placing this in an loop he set the sensors to repeatedly ping the doors in a sense. As soon as an opening was detected for the ship to depart through it would set a heading and launch the ship through the hole. Then it would take evasive action to about 5 Kilometers out and then make a break for it. In theory it would meet up with him in approx. 6 hours. Attached was automated beacon that sent out on a defined beam frequency allowed for Lost and Found. As well if not picked up in about 3 days it would head for the nearest SLA base.
Satisfied with his handiwork which should begin in about 20 minutes, he headed down the bay, to the one right beside it. Walking over to a rather odd shaped frieghter, possibly a slightly reconfigured Droms, or a Humpback. Entering the ship slowly, one arm forward and bent at his waist, creasing his pressed suit inwards, the other around behind him, he moved up the ramp. Waiting as two pistols joined as if together on each side of his head, he slows then stops. Waiting for a few seconds before the metal disappears and a rather large man walks forward arms extended grabbing Liaison in a bear tight hug, ruining instantly the press of his clothes.
The air all but knocked out of him, Liaison knew it'd be over soon. Alexia had a tendency to not know his own strength, especially in times of anger and happiness. At this point, since he wasn't dead Liaison presumed it was happiness.
Dropping back to the plank with a thud and a clash, Liaison slowly regained his breathe. Moving past the man towards the cockpit he noticed several figures. The reason this frieghter had looked so weird was that each gun had its own targeting system for seperate gunners. It ran more efficiently meaning each gun could multi-target and track individual targets instead of the rear being unable to shoot at all because of the target in front. True it required more man power, which was why this was a ship without cargo, but living space.
Moving to the cockpit, he glanced over his shoulder, watching as each man crouched or took up their position. An kind of eire silence had drifted over the group.
Well... May as well try and be official..
"This is the Freighter Xanga requesting clearence for launch. We need immediate evacuation of the station as we are carrying vital information meant for the Liberty government. "
"Affirmative Frieghter Xanga. You will be cleared to launch soon."
"Umm.. How soon is soon?"
To this he was answered with a click, a annoying "Please hold" and then an annoying song. A soft sigh echoed from his lips, and he turned around.
"Mmmmk boys, we're blowing our way out. Or better yet. I'm leading the way, and your following. "
Liaison knew his frieghter guns at the moment couldn't blow open the hold. However the walls between hangers was a different matter. Rotating the ship slowly until he was broad side he allowed each man to coordinate to one area of the wall. Allowing for a large hole to be blown out of the wall. Then they waited...
