A Swift Retreat

Gilad Pellaeon was scared.The Battle of Endor had gone horribly wrong.What was supposed to be the destruction of the Rebels was turning out to be the destruction of the Empire.

Now,Pellaeon was not just the commander of the Chimera,but the entire fleet at Endor.
"Sir,What are your orders?"

Lt. Salmone Morth,now second-in-command of the Chimera,was one of Pellaeon's closest friends.

"WE will stand our ground here."Pellaeon had lost hope."The Empire is going to die today",thought Pellaeon,"but maybe we can take a few Rebels will go with us."

"Sir,I think we should-"

"Lt.Morth,quite frankly,I don't care what you think we shouls do.We are going to make a final stand against these Rebels."

"But Sir-"

"THat is an order Lt.Morth."

All of the sudden,a Nebulan-B Class Frigate started fireing on the Chimera.There shields were nearly down.Suddenly,a turbolaser hit the Chimera's bridge.Pellaeon was lucky to be alive.All except he and an ensign had died.

Pellaeon looked at Salmone's corpse.Salmone had died because of Pellaeon's foolishness.Now Pellaeon now knew what he must do.

"Ensign,let's make this a swift retreat."
