Once out side tom manuvered his interceptor above the northen pole of the planet and postioned him self towards the center of the 300 large pack of ships already clusstered around and sat there pationtly as watkins talked to him over the radio.
"Hey Tom, you finally made it then?"
"yeah I'm here, I still don't like this man."
"It's a bit late now." Watkins paused waiting for Tom to reply but Tom just breathed heaverly into the mic "Hey man everything will be fine together we'll whoop theese bastards back in to the next parrallel haha just you see." Tom just gave a quick and nervuse reply of yeah and turned off the radio to everyone but command who then proceded to give orders to the squadren.
"Men this is your squadren leader, Interceptor pilots as soon as that rift opens I want you to take the lead and attack the spiders while the war frigets lay down suppressing fire from behind?OK?" Tom replied with an obidiant yes sir and began to scour the dark surroundings for the rift. He spotted a streak of yellow light out of the perifary of of his vision. He immidietly turned his head round to see what looked like a slash in space leaking out orange/yellow and spiders it was the rift. As tom waited for the order to attack he looked around spoting several other rifts starting to open into space below him but before he could say anything the squadren leader shouted oders at the squadren through the radio.
"Here they are boys arrange yourselves in a v formation and fire at will at these sons of bitch's!" Tom sat motionless in his fighter trying to figure out in his head what was actualy happenning only to interupted but the squadren leader souting MOVE, MOVE, MOVE! He arrnaged him self in to position at one end of the v and with the rest of the squadren began to move towards the was of spiders ahead while locking on and and firing at the EMP ships. They passed though the siders they had lost a couple of ships and they hanged motionless and helpless in space. They all turned round and re-grouped as a slightly smaller v. While he did this he took a brief moment to look at the other rifts he spoted under him before they were still there but bigger than the one the spiders came out of and still growing then he saw it the rounded end of a dreadnought. Tom looked round to try and spot at least on jump gate opening from Podus Prime but he saw nothing they? not only them but he would have to face the dreadnoughts without any destroyer support the lump aready in his throught seemed to grow larger. He looked though the squadren of spiders infront of him to see the enemys fleets of Phoenix's heading over the southen pole towards them followed by the other fleet of fighters. The squadren flew thought the spiders again this time they broke up the pack and destroyed a few more and they started to split off in to one on one dog fights. The dreadnoughts by now had cloased in and prepared there messon turrets. Tom saw one was being aimed at Watkins and he began to yell through his helmet mounted mic to tell Watkins who was busy trying to shot down a Phoenix
"Wakins you have a dreadnought on your six." He paused to wait for his reply but there was nothing. "Wakins? WATKINS!? Oh shit!" tom realised he had turned of the radio to him. He franticly tried to flick the switch to turn it on but he was too late he looked up to to see the small blue messon partical hit Watkins ship riping off the rear end of the ship creating a small explostion which triggered off a larger one that exploded the whole ship leaving firey bits of metal floating in space. Tom went by the wreakage seeing nothing but a spider behind him. He tried to out manuver him but the spider shot a pulse of EMP out of the matrix of EMP guns at the front of it sending Toms cockpit into darkness. The instrements flickered briefly but went out again he waited helplessly as he watched war frigets being torn apart by rallys of torpedos from the Phoenix's and dradnoughts taking out interceptor like a lizard catching flies. Realising no one was coming for him he felt around for a button dearly hoping that the EMP hadn't affected it. He pressed it and shut his eyes and a small controled explostion went of under the pilots pod and the pod slowly sepperated from the ship and as he got a few yards from he opened his eyes only to be blinded by a bright blue light heading in his direction. Then the bright orange light of his ship explaoding which shot him off futher into space and knocking Tom around in the cock pit and knocking him unconcuss.
