Adventures with Kay and Sombra Part II
From here
The U-wing bumps down and Cassian mutters in Festian as they stop, "Easy, easy, almost there."
Once they're set, he stands up with a nod and looks at Kay and Sombra while checking his holster and supplies, "How are we looking, Kay?"

She tosses her translocator near to the cannon and vanishes, reappearing with her holographic keyboard out and ready, fingers flying over it as purple sparks jump over the cannon.
"Hack complete," she says, sounding very satisfied.
And then she throws another translocator over toward Cassian, reappearing there and continuing her breakneck run toward the ship.
"That was bracing!"

Once they're all inside, he sits in the cockpit and does a quick check. "Lifting off. Sombra, what did you do to the cannon?"

"For the next little while it does as I say. Though we should probably leave very quickly, I do not know how good they will be at bringing it back under their control."
Then she wrinkles her nose in Kay's direction.
"I am," she agrees with him. "And proud of it. It keeps me interesting!"

"How long until we break atmo, Kay?"
no subject
The alarm was concerning, and he checked their position relative to the fighter and calculated the time they had to get out of the atmosphere.
"Sixty seconds, at best." Longer, if they had to pull any evasive maneuvering.

Sombra leans forward, holographic keyboard poised right below the fingers of her left hand.
"Can you establish a radio -- or any kind of communications -- connection with our pursuers?"
no subject
Cassian puts on the his headphones and stalls for time, "The storm's messing with my comms. I didn't get that."

Her fingers fly over her holographic keyboard, purple streaks of light sparkling around her free hand.
"But I do want to give them a present."
She touches the comm board with said purple-glowing hand, and the entire cockpit electrical system lights up. Something travels over the wires, and the TIE fighters following them will shortly have a very memorable surprise.
EMP pulses are tricksy things! Especially when they are very, very localized.
"I think we will have less of a problem with pursuit now, no?"

In a few seconds, they're clear of the atmosphere, "Let's get into hyperspace. What did you do?"
no subject
A few moments after they break free of the atmosphere Kay engages the hyperdrive and they are on their way.

"I told you I was the best."

He turns and gets out his datapad to trade information.

Then she grins at Kay.
"I like you too much to get you a present, Kay. Never fear."
Well, for now.
no subject
"Good, this sort of present is much better. Thank you. We'll do one stop to confuse anyone looking for us and can see about getting you a door there."
no subject
He plots their course, finding a relatively safe world for them to stop in the hopes that Cassian does not get himself hurt or killed there while sending Sombra back.

Kay would be sad.

"Here I was thinking it would be easier, since I do not truly belong here."
Opening the door farther back into the U-wing she pauses, turning around to grin at them both.
"And look, it seems I was right!"
She wiggles her fingers in a wave at them both, the sound of a busy cantina floating through the air out of the door.
"Until next time, my friends. Fly safe!"
And then the door to the cockpit closes behind her, and she's back in Milliways. Such fun!

And he enjoys the clear pleasure she takes in the work, he doesn't understand it but its nice to be around.
