"Freighter Virex. Repeat previous transmission or you will be fired upon." A voice erupted from one of the consoles and Zirex thought for a moment. "Uh...Repeat your transmission or [i]you[/i] will be fired on." He countered as he prepared to gun it towards the planet while making static noises.

"What?" The voice on the comn asked with more than a hint of confusion before resuming it's normal tone. "Power down or you will be fired on!" The voice on the comn ordered. Zirex muttered under his breath as he realized that he had been found out. If he was going to go he was going to go out the same way the rest of the Blood Stars had, with a blaster in his hands and destroyed Imperial property in his wake.

"Go Kark yourself Imperial!" He shouted as he gunned the engine just as turbolaser blasts began to hit the rear deflectors. They held against the first two blasts but the third one impacted with the sublight engines directly, causing power surges throughout the ship. He could feel the ship beginning to shudder and shake violently as it hit the atmosphere. He could see rebel fighters engaged in dogfights with TIE fighters. He checked the status of the escape pods and saw that only one was still active but it had been damaged by the power surges.

"Well, might as well make the best of a bad situation." The Weequay said with a grin as he did his best to point the damaged ship towards an Imperial Turbolaser tower and headed back towards the escape pod. There was no guarantee that the ship would hit the tower directly once he left but he felt he had a good chance of having the ship hit the tower.

He looked down at the Imperial crew members he had killed and mockingly saluted them. "Long live the Empire." He said sarcastically as he pulled open the open the hatch and pulled it shut behind him. After a moment, the Escape pod shot away from the ship as it tumbled through the air.

Zirex cursed repeatedly in Mandalorian as he tried to grab onto something to hold and managed to after a moment he manged to. He smiled as he heard the sound of a loud explosion outside the pod but the smile faded when he felt the shock-wave hit the pod.

"Kark!" He shouted as the Pod began tumbling even more then it had before as it headed towards the ground.
