The vibration from the TIE fighter�s Ion engines swam through Marka Ragnos� body, as he lightly pulled back on the control stick. The fighter obitatly pulled up and pointed towards the rear of an X-wing that was flying toward the Super Star Destroyer Mustang. Marka watched as the X-wing fired four green blasts at the mustang before he squizzed the trigger and hit the X-wing multiple times in the rear. With no delay the X-wing swong around with swan like grace trying to avoid the blasts. Marka took a shallow breath inside his helmet at turned to stay behind the X-wing.
The two ships danced in the black vacuum of space, now and then a flicker of light would exit the front of one and quickly vanish as it missed and flew off into oblivion. Marka felt a tiny droplet of sweat slide it�s way down his forehead, as he tried to stay behind the quickly moving X-wing. Before long the X-wing had managed to out-manuver the un-experinced Marka Ragnos. The X-wing fell in behind Marka and fired a missle toward butt of Marka�s fighter. Marka felt a sudden jolt from his fighter, and watched as flames begain to cover it, then blackness.
Suddenly the top of the flight simulator craked open and Marka Ragnos pushed it open, while removing his helmet. He wiped the sweat off his face as he said �Frak! killed again...�
