Flight and Flying [Thursday, August 23, 3rd period]

[sith_happened]

Anakin was waiting for the students on the top of the apartment building in town, leaning up against a Lambda-class Imperial shuttle.

"Welcome to the Virgo," he said with a small smile before giving them a quick rundown of the general specifications of the ship. "It's twenty meters long and is generally used to ferry soldiers or cargo back home," he said. "It's also equipped with a hyperdrive--which we will not be using--as well as two forward-facing double laser cannons, two wing-mounted double cannons, and a rear-facing double laser cannon." He met each student's eyes. "Which we will definitely not be using. We're going to do a quick swing around the system here--we won't go out as far as Pluto, but since it's not a planet any longer, I doubt it will be that offended."

He waved a hand towards the ramp. "Come aboard."

Anakin's eyes blazed and his hand reached for the hilt of his lightsaber.

"Enough," he spat. "Long past enough. We're taking her down. Screw the consequences--there's a cliff with her name on it if she won't go quietly."

The look on his face said he kind of hoped she wouldn't.

"I'm good with a cliff as long as that wand is gone first," Aly said instantly.

Anakin was already running numbers in his head. "We'll need an assault team," he said, "and a screening back-up in case we don't work the first time, and people to watch the perimeter to stop headstrong students from interfering. Is Wade up for helping us out?"

"Wade would be insulted if he wasn't there," she said replied quickly, working the same numbers. "And he's healed from Tuesday. Sheriff's alchemy would useful as long as he knows he's not in charge. Squall possibly? And Ares."

"As long as he knows he's not in charge," Anakin agreed. "I don't want to be picking Umbridge out of the carpeting. Who are we missing? Arashi?" He bit his lip. "I want to keep the recent alum out of this," he said. "It's going to get messy. They don't need to see it."

Re: Talk to Anakin--NFB plz.

She nodded. "Couldn't stop Arashi if Wade was going anyway. And Fraser. He'd be useful. Also to talk to Zoe and bring her in on it." Aly shook her head. "No, let's keep it to adults this time. The students have dealt with enough - alums or not. We should have a planning meeting. Tomorrow maybe, tonight's too soon to pull it together."

"Make sure they know that this is justice, not revenge and not getting our kicks," Anakin said, jaw clenched. "And that anyone looking for those other two things doesn't need to be there."

Aly nodded sharply. "I think the people we're talking about, it's understood, but it'll be clear."

"Start making handwavey calls tonight?" Anakin said softly. "Set it up tomorrow, take her down ASAP?"
