The second session saw Kyle absent, so the Wookie crawled off into the crew quarters to rest from his wounds received while fighting Trex to the death. Brent used the communications in the cockpit to talk to spaceport control to attempt to get the docking clamps removed. He was able to lie his way through by saying that Trex had been wounded and they needed to get him off planet immediately for urgent care. The controller was busy giving the Imperial shuttle clearance and believed the story, so they were free.
They drug Trex into the cargo hold that contains some “cages” for slaves, but didn’t notice an occupant in one - Chris’ character. He tried over several rounds to “use the force” to lift the key from Trex’s body and was unsuccessful. Meanwhile Brent is trying to get the ship out of the planet’s gravity well in order to make the jump to hyperspace. Craig and Jonas climb into the top and bottom turrets to fend off some TIE fighters that were gunning for them. They manage to destroy them and two more start coming as Chris finally gets the key and gets free.
Once those TIE’s are destroyed they make a quick jump toward Ryloth via the main hyperspace routes. Chris comes up behind Brent and manages to flip a dark side point to light and lift Brent’s blaster from his holster. They are not sure that they should trust each other but finally realize that Chris was a prisoner. They give First Aid to Trex and put him in the cage, curious if he has a bounty on his head. Chris gives the blaster back and the episode ends with the ship continuing through hyperspace.
Craig, Jonas, Brent & Chris each receive 5 XP. They have listed some things they want to do on the ship while they are in transit, and I’m working on those things now. All wounds have been healed, including a critical injury that Kyle sustained. We will most likely be taking up “The Long Arm of the Hutt” follow up adventure.
