And you thought I was kidding

"Captain?"

Captain Wootenhoffer looked around at the faces of his crew.  They were
almost all young men, still kids.  It didn't take a master strategist to
know that the battle was going poorly.  When the command
came to press the attack, Wootenhoffer knew it was suicide.  He stood,
an internal debate raging, while his crew looked on.

"Sir!" cried one of the bridge crew, a young man named Stein.  "We've
just picked up a transmission.  Part of the fleet has broken away.
They're moving out of the Iserlohn Circuit!"

"What?!" Wootenhoffer was aghast.  It was a huge risk they had just
taken. And not only mutiny -- leaving the Iserlohn corridor meant
leaving the only navigable route in this area between the Empire and the
Rebel Alliance.  Wootenhoffer had never been a man to take risks.  But
for the first time in his career, he felt that he had to make a choice
between a chance for life and certain death.  And in his opinion, today
was not a good day to die.

"Mr. Stein, prepare to follow that fleet.  We're getting out of here."

Broken mirror, a million shades of light
The old echo fades away
But just you and I can find the answer and then
We can run to the end of the world
