Pirate Base Raid Intro

Pirate Base Raid Intro
 Drego Halcyon follows Hela Dolpho, his commanding Crimson Vampire commander, into the small space dock of the Crimson Vampires base of operations on the planet Eriadu. The space dock has only one ship in it, and only one person. The ship is not a standard GA military vessel, and the person standing in front of the ship is not wearing what is even close to a GA military outfit.
 He person is a female Zeltron with human skin color with long, pink hair and is wearing a one piece, tight, purple jumpsuit that is unzipped that shows a little cleavage. She has a small pouch attached to her leg, the only place on her whole outfit that is able to hold anything.
 “Drego, this is my life-long friend, Cora Daival. Since we lost a few Crimson Vampires in our last mission, I got permission from General Antietos Danti to bring her in as a replacement. She will now be your new body guard from this point forth.”
 Cora walks up, grabs Drego’s hand, and shakes it. “Nice to meet you, sexy. I hope we get to spend a lot of alone time together.” Drego blushes as he checks her body over. “Oh my, the look on your face is just priceless! What dirty thoughts were you thinking of, little boy?” Drego then coughs into his fist while his cheeks turn pink and the Zeltron starts giggling.
 “Lieutenant, she is not part of the military, so why on earth would the general allow her to join our squad?” Drego asks, looking away from the giggling Zeltron.
 Hela grins at the two, and then replies with, “Well, one reason is that the good general owes me a favor or two, and the other fact is that Cora is actually an ex-Legionnare, Ex-Crimson Vampire to be precise. She is also like you, in a way.” Hela motions towards Cora. “Show him.”
 Cora nods, and then pulls something out of her pouch, and then presses a button. A green blade pops out, the green light illuminating the dark corners of the space dock. “We’re both EXIE’s!” Cora yells, extending her arms as if expecting a hug.
 Drego just looks at her, not sure what to say. “Exie’s?” Drego says, cocking an eyebrow.
 Hela whispers in his ear, “She means ex-Jedi, obviously. Trust me with one thing, while she is hard to work with sometimes, she is a amazing fighter and, best of all, can teach you the ways of the force again.”
 Drego sighs. “Listen, Hela, I don’t wanna learn the ways of the Force. I left the Jedi Order for a reason.”
 “Yes, you did, but that reason was because you didn’t like the way things were done there, not because of the force itself. With the Kel Dor Sith running around, you need to start training your force abilities to be able to stand a chance against such an opponent.” Before Drego could think of a response, the announcements went off, saying, “Lieutenant Hela Dolpho and her Crimson Vampires are to report to meeting room 4.” Hela smiles.
 “Well, it’s time to move out. Follow me, Vampires.” Drego and Cora walk behind Hela, Cora teasing him every now and then about him being a pervert. They reach the meeting room, and Drego and Cora take their places next to Valsi Herok, a Crimson Vampire that joined Drego’s squad before their last mission.
 Hela takes her place in the middle of the room to General Antietos Danti’s right, standing at attention. “Vampires, attention!” All of the crimson Vampires stand at attention, and Hela steps back, allowing Antietos to speak.
 "Lieutenant, we have a mission for your squad. It will be more straightforward than the last mission, where you lost two of your men, thankfully Sergeant Lonii survived the encounter with Daloq and killed it. The investigative committee dont find any fault in command of Sergeant Halcyon." Dakunna said and looked on Drego for a brief moment before returning back to Hela.
 "Alliance Intelligence discovered a secret pirate base on Noctralis in the Expansion Region. The pirate gang there, the Purple Lusty Hawks, were raiding smaller merchant ships on Hydian Way, Defense Fleet managed to destroy two of their ships and shot down several fighters, but until now their base of operation was unknown. Your mission is to attack a pirate base, kill the pirates and secure the wealth they possessed from stolen goods or goods that remains there. No survivors are required, but if you will manage to capture anyone, guard him well, he may have some information on other pirate gangs." General was quiet for a moment so Hela Dolpho and others would absorb the information and memorize it. Than he continued.
 "Also, for a time being to your squad will be assigned Cora Daival, former Vampire legionnaire. She will also be your pilot. And one last thing, you will not be alone on this mission. Omega Legionnaires also took this mission and are on their way to Noctralis. But I settled on with the responsible general from Omegans that both squads will cooperate. You will meet with Omegans on the opposite side of planet's moon where you would be shielded from pirates' sensors. The commanding officer of the Omegans is Captain Fenk Tarayen, he will be waiting for you on the rendezvous coordinates." Again Dakunna paused for a moment so everyone got what he said.
 "Any questions you have, lieutenant?"
 Hela steps forward, replying, “What sort of defenses do we know that they have? How many forces do we know to be in the base?”
 General evidently took a deeper breath before answering.
 "That is something we can only guess. When Intelligence from the memory banks of downed corvette found the coordinates of the pirate base, they send in a probe droid to make some investigation. The droid revealed the defense is composed of two heavy turbolaser turrets that can fire only into to the skies, so your squad and Omegans should be safe when on ground, but still pirates has many E-web repeating blaster emplacements. That’s all we know about defenses outside, but hopefully you will surprise them before they will be able to man them all. For the number of forces, we can only guess the number. Purple Lusty Hawks possess in their small fleet two corvettes and one cruiser and few starfighters. You can expect few hundreds, but your armors should be sufficient to protect you, you will have clear advantages against them, but don’t let your guard down."
 Hela nods, and then looks towards her Vampires. “Alright, Vampires! Let’s move out! I want all of you fully prepared for combat in fifteen! Move out!”   “Ma’am, yes ma’am!” With that, all the Vampires leave, Hela right behind her squad.
