A white Disintergration pulse seared through space and hammered into the Annihilator's hull, burning through a square section of it before exploding, spewing out wreckage into space. The ship was too large to be destroyed right now, but The Drones intended on doing as much damage as possible. The Commodant ordered the Cruisers and longs bows to off load as much ordanance as possible and then back off into a firing retreat, seeing that it was pointless to engage them further.
however, the Sentinals and OWL's continued to battle for control of the Annihilator's surface. The Sentinals were constructing a small base of sorts, having burrowed into the hull of the Annhilator, setting up a small network of tunnels within its armour. They would allow other fighters to hide from enemy fire if necessary and if the situation persisted, offer speedier movement throughout the Annihilator.
The area looked like the surface of some blasted moon. Craters and wreckage all around. There was a single large crater where the breech charge had originally detonated, within it, slabs of metal folded up into make shift shields, below them the tunnel entrances. Sentinals crawled around the dark blackened surface, red eyes glinting in the darkness, their black carpace like curved armour winking off the light of the nearby sun. Above them, about 8 other much larger Sentinals dropped down, around the same size in height in length, but considerably beefier, with pods around their graspers for holding weapons. These varients were mostly designed for Urban combat but the Commodant requested they were dropped, knowing from the data gathered in the earlier attack that the resistence within the ship would be much greater than normal.... The Urban Sentinals were equiped with much heavier armour, numerous weapons and 2 deavestator missiles. Their drawback was in expense and flight. They could fly, but were nowhere near as maneuverable or quick as the common Sentinal.
The machines landed, numerous eyes scanning around. They quickly strided away, scuttleing down into the tunnels... Even now, more and more hull liquidated hull armour was being drained out, the drones coming closer and closer to breeching into the ships interior....
Some distance away from the dig site, a wing of 16 OWL's spotted a number of TIE fighters ahead... The fighters instantly spread out, their jets roaring into life. each one launched a missile. The slender pod like bomb roaring into life and zipping off across the surface of the gigantic ship, arcing towards the TIE fighters far off in the distance....
The Commodant watched emotionless as the Planet below came apart, mildly interested about how the Imperials had managed to reduce the matter fall out. Even a portion of a planet detonating was enough to plaster a section of space in lethal debris....
While maricans all over were probably aghast at what had just unfolded, the drones only saw irrelevance.
