====The War====

Michi reached eighteen not long after the war started. Recognizing an opportunity, they signed up. Their talent got them fast tracked through flight school and, before long, Michi was flying a fighter on the front lines. They were usually teamed up with a wingman by the name of Garfield, who taught them how to throw knives. Michi loved the flying part. Not so much the shooting. More than once, Michi was busted for insubordination after refusing to obey orders or stay in formation. They were pulling duty as a shuttle pilot when they recognized the personal Companion of a high ranking Alliance scientist as their childhood friend, Carina, and it was obvious she wasn't there willingly. Tired of the Alliance's mi tian ghon, Michi organized a rescue while shuttling the scientist, Carina, and his guard to a military facility located on an otherwise barren moon. The scientist and the guard ended up spaced. Michi and Carina dived behind enemy lines and joined the Browncoats.<br>

After defecting, Michi was made the pilot of a blockade runner named the Camel's Straw, using their skills and the ship's speed to deliver supplies to troops and civilians in need. The captain was named Marshall Tuck but everyone called him Sepia, on account of his loyalty to the Independents. They said if you cut old Sepia, he'd bleed brown he was so devoted to the cause. Michi served aboard the Pair of Threes for just over two years before the war ended. Because they weren't just an Independent but a deserter they ended up spending a few years behind bars. When they got out, it wasn't easy to find a job. No legitimate employer wanted to hire a pilot with a record.

Luckily, not everyone hiring was a legitimate employer. Michi wandered from ship to ship, serving as pilot aboard this piece of junk or that. Truth be told, they didn't much like taking orders from other folk. Michi had their fill of that during the war. But, there wasn't much choice, until the day things finally went smooth. Sort of. Michi between ships and making ends meet by piloting shuttles again, out on the Rim. Just ferrying folks from planetside to the space station in orbit and back again. Nothing special. That is, until the feh wu ship they were flying suffered from engine failure. Michi survived the crash but the passenger they were ferrying didn't. On the other hand, the passenger's cargo did survive and it turned out to be a nice bundle of money, all in hard currency. Michi walked away from the crash with enough cash to put down a stake in their very own ship and a racing vehicle.
