//------------------------------// // Chapter 2: The Ember Pegasus! // Story: Star Wars III: The New Empire // by New Fossil Studios //------------------------------// *Tatooine* Rarity was following Rainbow Dash across the desert until coming across a spacecraft with a cockpit shaped like a head, a hemispherical body, twelve jet engines, and wings shaped like actual wings, buried in the sands. Rainbow Dash said: "The Ember Pegasus, my only form of transportation. It has lasers big enough to destroy asteroids, and heat-seeking missiles. It can go through hyperspace too." When they got into the Ember Pegasus, there wasn't much in there besides seats, tables, a cargo bay, and the cockpit, which had two seats in it. Rainbow Dash sat in the seat to the left, which had the steering wheel; Rarity sat in the seat to the right, which had the hyperdrive switch. Rainbow Dash said: "We have liftoff." The ship began rising off the ground, but they got assaulted by ships shaped like spheres with solar panels for wings. Rainbow Dash said: "Ugh, Tie Fighters." And she blasted away at the Tie Fighters while turning, "Rarity, the windshields are made Blass Glass." Rarity then pulled out her blaster and began shooting at the Tie Fighters as the blasts went directly through the windshields; the Tie Fighters each completely blew up from a single shot from her blaster. "Woah, I never knew there was such blaster, Rarity." They started flying out out the atmosphere, "Now'll be a good time for a hyperdrive, Rarity" Rarity then pulled the lever, after ten seconds flat they started going through hyperspace. "Rainbow Dash, where are we headed?" "Hoth."
