I went towards the hangar, and once there I met Admiral Tarkin. " Is the cruiser and crew ready to take off, Admiral? "
" Yes, young padawan, we're ready to take off now. "
"All right, let's go". , so I went aboard the cruiser and immediately on the bridge, the admiral followed me.
"How do you plan to bypass the seperatist interceptors who will be stationed in front of the planet? "
"I'm going to fly ahead with my fighter party and take them out, then we'll meet again in sector three, there's a suitable landing site for the runners and bombers. "
Admiral Tarkin put on a grim look. He probably never expected such a thoughtful plan from a padawan, I thought.
" All right, we will carry out your plan, jedi. I'll keep an eye on everything on the bridge, so you can inform the crew of the plan. We'll be at Florum in about an hour. "
" Of course, Admiral. "

I was glad to finally not have to be near him anymore, so I went to the main hangar. Once there, I searched for the captain of that unit. I would love to have Anakin and Captain Rex at my side, but they were on a mission in the Outer Rim themselves, although they should probably be back on Coruscant today or tomorrow.
After a few minutes I finally discovered him, his name was Captain Beck, which I had studied before the mission.
Going on a mission with a team you didn't know could make a quick decision about life and death.
"Commander in the hangar!" he shouted as I approached him and all the clones standing with him saluted briefly.
I nodded to them, "Stir up, men. "
"Captain, if you have a moment for me, I'd like to inform you of our plan. "
" Of course, Commander. "
We went towards the fighter unit which was on the right side of the hangar. " I need a full fighter party, they will destroy with me the seperatist interceptors so that Admiral Tarkin can bring the cruiser into the atmosphere and land the bombers and runners in sector three on the landing platform. That's where our gathering place will be. Do you understand, Captain?"
"Of course, Commander. I'll notify the fighter squadron and have the runners reloaded and the bombers ready. "
"All right, step away, soldier. "
He saluted briefly and went on his way.

In the meantime, I went to my hunter, familiarized myself with the technique and checked it thoroughly. This is what I always did before I flew with it, this trick I got from my master.
You should know your machine by heart, it'll save your life from time to time, Snips. That's what he said when I was in command of a fighter party for the first time.
I was rudely ripped from my memories when my comlink beeped. "Commander Tano here. "
"Commander, we're about to exit hyperspace, and have your fighter party ready. " Admiral Tarkin announced on the radio.
" Already on it, Admiral. "
I immediately phoned Captain Beck and shortly after that the men came running and gathered at my place for a briefing.
When everyone was there, I started talking. "Here you are, soldiers. I'm Commander Tano, I'm gonna lead this mission, and as soon as we leave hyperspace, we're gonna fly out there with the fighters and destroy the seperatist interceptors. The aim is to clear the way for the cruiser, then we'll gather on the landing platform in sector three, with the bombers and the runners. Do you understand that? "
In the chorus, a close, "Yes, Commander!" came back and I nodded for a moment.
"Good then, set the hunter and the radio connoisseur to 7351! "
Everyone ran to their hunters, I also sat in mine and hired the radio connoisseur, then I contacted them with 'Phoenix 1'. The other hunters also gave their experts bit by bit, so that I would know who was in my squadron and would know who we had lost later.

"Commander, we leave hyperspace and then open the hangar. " That was Tarkin. . .
"Okay, Admiral, we're ready to go. "
We felt a short jerk signaling that we had left hyperspace and the hangar started to open above us. I started my hunter " Here we go, boys get ready to go. Let's go!", so I took off and flew through the open hangar gate, the rest of my season was right behind me.
"Closed line-up, Phoenix squadron! As soon as they're in range, swarm out and shoot as many as you can!"

So the fight began.
The Phoenix squadron did well and had already eliminated all enemy hunters after a few minutes.
" Prepare for landing and land in sector three!" I passed on the radio and set off with my squadron to sector three.
