Storyline

Observation Deck, TCS Concordia.

JAZZ Maverick. What a pleasant surprise. MAVERICK Why'd you do it, Jazz? How could they convince you to betray the Confederation? JAZZ I didn't betray anyone, you fool. You betrayed ME! You let my brother die, you son of a bitch! MAVERICK What are you talking about? JAZZ Ten years ago, the Kilrathi attacked Goddard Colony. The Tiger's Claw was supposed to defend those people. But you detoured to attack an enemy troopship! My brother died with everyone else on Goddard... ...all because of you, you and the Tiger's Claw! I swore I'd kill everyone on that damned ship--- And I nearly did. Spirit was so easy... ...and I only had four to go ...you, Angel, Paladin, and Maniac... MAVERICK You're one sick bastard, Colson. If I had my way, you'd be dead now. But even that doesn't begin to pay you back for what you did. They'll court-martial you, and find you guilty... I just wish I could be there to pull the trigger. Goodbye, Jazz.

Mission Briefing

Briefing Room, TCS Concordia.
ANGEL The Kilrathi are launching their assault against the Gwynedd system, pilots. This is the last human-controlled system in the Enigma Sector. The fate of Enigma Sector, as well as our homeworlds, depends on this battle. I will personally lead the main force to defend Caernarvon Station. But before the defensive force departs--- ---we'll launch five Sabres to fly escort ahead of the Concordia. At the Nav point, you will break into separate patrol routes--- ---then return to the Concordia. MAVERICK Colonel Devereaux, I request permission to fly with the wings to defend Caernarvon. I know this system...there are a limited number of approaches to the station... ANGEL Permission denied. The Admiral requested that you fly escort. Maverick, you're dismissed. Prepare for immediate launch.
Five minutes later...
SPARKS Captain Blair! Your Sabre's ready for your patrol... MAVERICK Refit that ship with torpedoes, Janet. SPARKS That's not in the mission outline... MAVERICK It has been changed. I'll also need a new flight disk--- ---with the navigation data for the Gwynedd System. SPARKS Are you sure about this, Maverick? MAVERICK Janet, Tolwyn's wanted me off his ship since Caernarvon... Now I'm going to give him a reason.

Midflight

EDMOND Rogue Sabre, this is the Concordia. Return to base IMMEDIATELY. MAVERICK You know me better than that, Major Edmond. I'm going to stop the Kilrathi from destroying Caernarvon--- ---and there's nothing you can do about it, ma'am. EDMOND Tolwyn will fry you for this, Captain! MAVERICK I'm sure he will. AFTER I take out that strike force! EDMOND I'll tell him, Maverick. And...for what it's worth...good luck. MAVERICK Thanks, Major. Blair out.
Meanwhile...
KILRATHI My lord! A single human pilot has attacked our forward patrol--- ---and is now heading towards our fleet's position! THRAKHATH Maverick. I will deal with that insignificant pest. Ready our fighters to attack Caernarvon Station--- And maneuver the Hha'ifra to an intercept course with Maverick. I will take care of Maverick myself. KILRATHI As you wish, my lord.

Mission Debriefing

MAVERICK Concordia, this is Captain Blair. Reporting two Fralthra and several wings of fighters destroyed... As well as Prince Thrakhath. EDMOND Outstanding! I'll tell the others. You're cleared to land, Captain.
SPARKS Good work, sir!
Flight Deck, TCS Concordia.
ANGEL Maverick, you mad fool! You were magnificent! MAVERICK That's my job. TOLWYN Blair! You have a lot to answer for, pilot! Disobeying orders, dereliction of duty--- ---theft of Navy property, endangerment of personnel... Nice work...Colonel Blair. I never thought I'd say this--- ---but I'm proud to serve with you on this ship, Maverick. MAVERICK Thank you, sir. ANGEL I have new orders for you, Christopher, and you'd better not disobey these! Report immediately to my personal quarters, with a bottle of champagne! MAVERICK Aye aye, ma'am! TOLWYN Three cheers for Colonel Blair!
