Nashasil'ev'nuruodo and the Assassin

After our quest was over and we had returned to our sunken ship, we were informed by the Commander that we had to take off. There were hundreds of Rebel troops pinned down under heavy fire, in need of rescue. We were nominated to handle it, despite the fact that a Star Destroyer with bombed out hanger bay was still in orbit. We timed our take-off in such a way as to force the Star Destroyer to travel the farthest to get to us.

When we arrived to the battle site, the fighters were all deployed. Jahjee was assigned to me as a gunner, showing the Rebel Commander's trust of our group. Fire was exchanged. People died on both sides, but we got the troops evacuated. We did lose the other Y-wing, as her pilot did not make a turn in time and impacted into an Imperial Garrison base. This time the Force was kind and saved my small, fuzzy companion's life.

Midway through our initial hyperspace jump, the Commander decided to hold the debriefing on the bridge. Mid-debriefing, someone popped out from behind the Commander and the ground General. Shooting the General, the attacked then tried to bolt away from the bulk of personnel. Having already given my abilities away to the Commander, I decided my intervening was appropriate. I blocked the attacker's escape and proceeded to have a running battle throughout the bridge. Luckily, he managed to avoid shooting random people and I avoided slashing them.

During this battle, Jahjee blasted a communications panel that he had rigged to transmit. Her action managed to keep our location secret. The Captain and the Zabrak kept the engines from overloading, due to another of his sabotage efforts. The Ithorian aided the General by stabilizing his condition and then, in violation of cultural norms, aided my fight by opening fire upon the attacker.

We are now dead in space, with an unconscious General and a broken ship. I'm not sure if "adventure" is the right word for my life...
