"Apparently, he is after the same thing we are and wants to pre-emptively eliminate the competition," says Muzhy. "It might be he's not the only one."

The enemy ship skips around down to a incoming vector from your underbelly. The com squawks, "What was that? Wookie? Damn carpets, I hate Wookies!" One of the panels lights up he has a target lock on you, he's been buying time this whole time.
**PEW PEW**
Incoming proton torpedoes!

"Grrwoookgrrwak!" Chak swings the ship around as he picks up speed, trying to evade the torpedoes, and then heading for the surface.

Double-checking the straps of her seat, Naomi watches her readout with wide eyes, hoping their captain has the skill to avoid the torpedoes.

Muzhy calls out a warning, but the sensors show it, two inbound torpedoes. You can't avoid them both, and you don't have time to jump to lightspeed. Your wookie pilot does what he can to head for the planet, and as luck would have it he avoids one of the photons. The other however....
The other clips our port side engine stabilizer and the ship is rocked from the explosion. You race to put the fire out that's spreading now even as you dip into the atmos and Chak escapes into cloud cover spiraling down down down to Kimiji City.
You can see the city out the front window now, but the alarms going off suggests you'll never make it. You are forced to put down 20 kilometers outside of town in a fairly level patch of frozen snow and ice.

Naomi is out of her seat as soon as the ship comes to rest. "Come on; he might come back for another pass now that we're grounded. I'd rather not have this ship become my tomb." Quickly, the Togruta woman retrieves her small bundle of gear and makes ready to depart.

Muzhy grabs his things as well. As heads out of the ship and looks around, he shouts, "Look for cover! If there isn't any, let's split up--that will make it harder for him to get us."

Chakossa shuts down all systems so they won't show up on sensors and hesitates a bit before he exits the ship. He growls something, evidently unhappy. <Shyriwook: "They bloody damaged my ship! Those nerfherders! We must find cover, but we also must come back to repair the ship. We must complete the mission.">
He looks around for cover.
