With yet another diabolical
for the Empire, Airam Clan Leader Tamaron took noticed in the Rebels ability
obtain victories against the Empire. Being impressed of the Empire's loss
of two Imperial-class Star Destroyers and the capture of the Interdictor
Cruiser Compellor, he offered to assist the Rebels by helping to hide the
Interdictor Cruiser at one of his factories in a remote region in this
sector. With the Interdictor in Rebel hands, the Empire sent out hundreds
of patrols in an attempt to find the missing vessel, which possess a serious
threat to the Empire. Rebel High Command also realized that the Empire
would not stop until the Interdictor Compellor was back in Imperial hands
or it was destroyed, so they started the first stage of their plan at the
factory. Interdictor Compellor was en route to the factory with Rogue Squadron
and Green Squadron already in the area. The factory was the rendezvous
point for the Strike Cruiser Peregrine as well. The Rebel Interdictor came
out of hyperspace without incident. Shortly thereafter, a wave of TIE Advanced
came out of hyperspace for their patrol in this region, the Rebel starfighters
moved to intercept them. The Interdictor Cruiser Compellor attempted to
get its gravity wells online, but the gravity wells refused to work. Soon
the area was flooded with Assault Gunboats, who turned their sights on
the Interdictor Cruiser to disable it for capture, to get it back in Imperial
hands. Fierce fighting ensued with more waves of TIE Advanced entered the
area. During the fighting one of the Imperial starfighters attempt to hyper
out of the area, but it was destroyed before it could do so. The Assault
Gunboats were able to collapse the shields on the Interdictor and disabled
it. With the vessel disabled, 3 ATRs were called in to capture the vessel
back into Imperial service. However, the ATRs were destroyed before they
could capture the disabled Interdictor Cruiser. After the ATRs were destroyed,
two CR90 Corellian Corvettes hypered into the area. Nearing the end of
the battle the Rebel Strike Cruiser Peregrine hypered into the area. Before
the Corvettes could hyper out of the area with data collected, they were
destroyed. Not long after, all remaining Imperial starfighters were destroyed
and thus kept the Rebels intentions secret. With all Imperial Forces destroyed,
the Rebels sent the Lambda Shuttle Compassion with a repair crew to get
the Interdictor operational again so the Rebels could begin the modifications
to the Strike Cruiser Peregrine with the Airam's assistance due their great
prowess for ship modifications. After the Interdictor was repaired, shuttle
Compassion hypered out of the area.
