A Rebel shuttle carrying a Rebel Admiral was undergoing emergency mid-space repairs to its failed hyperdrive system when it was detected by Imperial Forces. A nearby Star Destroyer was diverted and it hypered into the area and deployed 7 TIE Fighters and 3 TIE Bombers before re-embarking on its previous mission. The Star Destroyer came out of hyperspace quite some distance from the Rebel shuttle. The Rebel shuttle was being escorted by Red Squadron. Red 2 was sent out to intercept the Imperial attack force before it could reach the Rebel shuttle and destroy it. Unfortunately Red 2 was able to destroy the all of the Imperial fighters before they could reach the shuttle and with that the shuttle was able to complete its repairs and hyper out of the area.
