The battle raged on above Fandom, fighters and ships whistling through the air-- and through space. The bigger ships had canons that thundered. Most of the time, their aim ran true.

But not always.

One colossal volley broke atmosphere, pierced the sky, and came down hard on Ingvar's shore, scorching trees and sending dolls scattering around like ash. It caused a thunderous noise, an unearthly crash... and the quiet, shrill ring of a mother's siren, pulsing deep underneath the earth, where no one could see.

That was all.

Until Fandom itself started to rumble, the earth trembling and tearing off underneath it. One moment, it was sitting snuggly in its usual bay - the next, it was tearing itself free from it, pulling up into the sky... and up. And even further up.

Well. That was certainly something.

"Well, since I've got the controls right here," Face said, looking for the altitude controls. It shouldn't be too hard to handle, he'd picked up X-Wing controls quickly enough. In sims.

Face, no.

"That one," Mara murmured to him as she walked over to settle in in front of a weapons array. "Um. Everyone strapped in?"

No that she didn't trust Face's abilities here, but she didn't. At all.

"Try not to crash," Wash suggested dryly. He was already running his hands over the weapons controls in front of him to get used to the feel.

"Good first step," Alana agreed, and glanced down at her screen again. "Oh, okay, the weapons panel is a lot like the ones on ships back home. I can make it work."

"We won't crash as long as I have breath and a pilot chair." Momoko ran her hands over her console. She flipped a few switches and her screens came alive with flight systems status information, lots of flight stabilizer meters... and an ad for JGOB. There was also a whole screen dedicated to the location of all other objects in nearby flight-space.

"So you've flown an X-wing?" She looked over at her co-pilot. "Aren't they fun? Though TIE fighters are a better ride, over all. More like you're flying on your own. Hmm... Definitely looks like I am secondary pilot."

"All systems are good, Captain." She grinned back to Principal Winchester. "Ready when you are."
