Chapitre 318: 318 Old Friends

The small Academy vessel, barely more than a Shuttle by Military standards, landed in the clearing with Terminus between it and the city.

Max, along with a wing of Corvette Class Mecha from the Regiment met them at the door to their ship, and Major Payne came out smiling at their caution.

"I like your instincts, but this group has been carefully vetted already. The most outspoken allies of the Empire were sent on a mission together, then we found ourselves all demoted to infantry soldiers and branded deserters. We borrowed this shuttle from the Academy's fleet after a short discussion with the Rebel Inquisitor who was piloting it, and well, here we are.

The Rebels obviously know who we are, and the Loyalists aren't going to believe that we didn't desert our planet so easily, so the only real option that we had was to divert and make a run for you out here in the middle of nowhere."
