Will Richard Save the Day on his Day Off? You Decide!

"We're going after the escorts!" you yell over the intercom.

"They're both swinging around, they're coming at us from two directions."

"I'll go towards the one at 9 o'clock and take it out with the cannons. The other one will be coming up behind us, I want you to fire some missiles at it. Let's do it!"

You turn your glider and go after one of the escorts. It dodges the first blast from your cannons and launches its own missiles at you. Your second shot hits dead on and the escort is destroyed. However, some of its missiles also hit dead on.

Your jolted around in your seat and warning lights start going off. You then see the other escort baring down on you.

"Peter, what are you waiting for!?"

"That last hit incapacitated our missile systems!"

Muttering something under your breath that could make your mother faint, you turn your glider around to face the enemy. You take aim, but too late. You're hit full on by a blast from a plasma cannon. It rips through your ship, breaking it into its composite elements. Before your brain can register what's happening, you're already dead, and with you dies the hope of stopping the enemy from seizing the station.
