Kimiao was shook the flight stick violently left and right as he tried to bring to bear his weapons upon the slippery T-Wing.

"These things are slimey...Seriously Slimey. One of them tried to straight up ram me. Shields....Shields are for whimps." he broadcast over the local network.

"Colonel, maintain proper radio procedures. Flight out." There was a moment of static as the radio ended and Kimiao then realised he was still in a fight.

The Mandalorian continued to roll the stick angling it, anticipating the other pilot's moves. He reached out with his mind and attempted to allow the force to guide his movements, make them intuitive and quicker than a reflex.

He dipped behind another TIE who almost collided with him.

"Gold 2. Watch your spacing."

"Gold 1. Yeh received, you came out of no-where Colonel."

He depressed the trigger and the green bolts of fire danced across the rear of the T-wing. At first there were a few minor shield impacts, nothing to write home about, however, just as the laser banks began to empty on Kimiao's TIE, he began to make headway, critical hits through the thruster assembly and a direct hit to the flight controls. Dead in the water. No hesitation to continue to fire at the helpless target and no ejection...Another dead rebel, no one would miss him.

"Scratch one."

He veered quickly as another TIE scooted closely by him, almost as if they didn't see him in the haze of battle.

"Remind me to get you all back in the flight sim, you're spacing absolutely is not acceptable Gold 2."

"This isn't the time Colonel, we've got easy prey to kill. Targetting the lead T-wing. Shields already down, he's limping home."

"You've got the shot Gold 2, covering your wing."

Kimiao moved closely on Gold 2's port side, assuming a half arrowhead formation to provide cover and support for the attack run.
