The Galactic Insurrection

The Galactic Insurrection is the thirty-seventh episode of BEYOND THE EDGE and the sixth episode of Season 3.
== Plot ==
Our heroes are shown in a large line waiting for the loading of a spacecraft to begin.
Since last episode, they have made their way down to the Izone Spaceport and now are waiting for takeoff to Portal. 
Woman over intercom: Thank you all for waiting, we will begin loading of spacecraft right now.
Our heroes and the rest of the line start moving towards the open spacecraft.
Tyler: You know, Oakley, I've never been on a spacecraft before.
Oakley: Me neither, Tyler, me neither
Tyler: I'm honestly a bit nervous, Oakley, because what if like, the ship crashes into an asteroid?
Yang: I don't think that's how it works, Tyler.
Tyler: C'mon, you never know!
It is now the group's turn to get on the spacecraft.
Oakley and the others step onto the spacecraft and are met with a very luxurious looking space, fitted with sofas and televisions. Along the walls were the occasional window to present space and beyond. People roamed the large area, some sitting, while others conversing. 
Sapphire: Now this is pretty nice.
A staff member walks up to our heroes.
Staff member: Feel free to explore the ship, there's two floors, an arcade, and lots of other stuff. Have a great flight you four.
There's a jump-cut and we see the heroes resting on a sofa in a section of the ship. Beside them there is a large window looking out into the vastness of space.
Suddenly, the four are startled by a noise outside the room they are located in.
Tyler: What the hell was that?
Our heroes peak their heads outside of the door into the corridor, they hear a voice, a male voice.
Voice: Okay, any of you make a move and we shoot you? Got it? You can sneeze and do whatever, but don't make a run for it, don't even try to fight.
The voice pauses for a moment.
Voice: So we are going to redirect this ship to Verdana, because, well, the Nedyalkan Federation is stupid enough to disguise a supply ship as a passenger spacecraft. And yes, we know that Cebbuater is trying to play that whole "neutral" card, but I call bullshit.
Voice: And you're probably wondering what'll happen when we get to Verdana, we'll simply induct you into the GI.
Oakley and the gang are now in the corridor and are peaking around the corner and looking into a room. He sees three armoured soldiers, they're wearing grey uniforms, armour, and have colored accents. One with blue, signifying a leadership role.
Oakley grips the Lawbringer he had gotten from Pablo.
Tyler: Oakley! What are you doing!?
Oakley aims the gun at the leader and the leader spots him. The leader pulls out his rifle and takes a shot at the corner, Oakley ducks behind it.
Leader: Hey, guys, there's an idiot behind that corner down the hall.
GI Soldier 1: Guess we get to produce an example out of these fools.
The soldier grabs his weapon, a deadly directed-energy weapon and aims it at the corner.
Leader: I think it's just one.
The soldiers turn the corner and discover lonesome Oakley and start shooting. Oakley rolls out of the way evading the gunfire and regains himself, bringing up the Lawbringer to take a shot at one of the soldiers. Oakley fires, but only grazes the arm of one of the soldiers, missing the shot. Instead, Oakley goes for the Dragonmaw and pulls it out along with the currently-wielded Lawbringer. 
Oakley fires the Dragonmaw, using the stun rounds and shoots wildly at the first soldier, immobilizing him. He then cocks the Lawbringer and raises it at the leader, but the leader ducks out of the way and rushes Oakley. 
Oakley throws both of his weapons down and engages in a fist-fight with the leader. Oakley pulls out a knife and brings it down into the leg of the leader. The leader recoils in pain while Oakley picks back up the Lawbringer and fires it, killing the leader there in the hall. 
The camera cuts to show a corridor, Yang and Tyler are walking down said corridor. They turn the corner and see two more soldiers and some other people huddled in a corner. The two soldiers see them and start shooting at them.
Both Yang and Tyler duck behind a corner to avoid the gunfire. 
Yang: On my mark?
Tyler: Wait, what?
Yang: Go.
Yang and Tyler both emerge from the corner. One of the soldiers has his pistol out and tries to take a shot at her. Yang, however, uses her Ember Celica to blast him in the chest and then knocks him in the face, rendering him unconscious for the time-being.
The camera shows Tyler, wielding his Idyllic Aurora, facing the other soldier. The soldier takes out his dagger and rushes him. Tyler takes the Idyllic Aurora and takes a swing at the soldier, the swing happens to get his right side and he collapses, neutralized.
The camera cuts once again to reveal Sapphire sprinting down a hallway, making her way to the bridge of the ship. Sapphire looks into the bridge, seeing another Galactic Insurrection soldier.
Soldier: We want this ship redirected to Verdana, got it?
Hostage Pilot: Okay, yes Verdana, okay.
The pilot pulls up a starmap and navigates to the star of Epsilon Barri in the Barrus constellation.
Soldier: Good, now set the navigation systems on a cour-.
Sapphire pulls out the Crescent Cornflower and takes a shot at the soldier. Though the soldier ducks and pulls out a pistol and aims it at the pilot. 
Soldier: Kill me and I kill the pilot, then you're stuck in interplanetary space, and I'd assume none of you are trained Nedyalkan pilots.
Then, Sapphire, taking a risk, swiftly brings up the Crescent Cornflower and shoots the soldier through the skull. Unfortunately, the soldier managed to shoot the pilot in the head with his pistol.
Two dead bodies lay on the floor of the control room.
Just then, Oakley, Yang, and Tyler all walk into the bridge.
Oakley: What happened?
Sapphire: One of them took the pilot hostage and killed him.
Oakley: How the hell will we get to Portal now?
Oakley looks out the front window of the starship, viewing the panorama of stars and distant planets, suddenly, he runs up to the navigation module of the control room toys around with it. 
Oakley finds out how to set the navigation destination to Portal, moon to Regnum. 
Oakley: We're now headed to Portal, at least I think so. 
Yang: Hopefully we are. 
The screen fades to black and the words BEYOND THE EDGE appear in big, bold, blue letters.
