"The transport is too large to land on the ground so one of the larger shuttles can give you a lift up to the transport freighter. We are taking the freighter in case we end up with more refugees but it will stay behind one of Mar's moons to keep it safe in case we are attacked. I want the mechs to surround the freighter as soon as we get out of the atmosphere and on the trans space jump. Once we are in the Sol system I want to avoid comm traffic until we have a better idea of what we are looking at. I will contact Mars once we are in position and if things aren't too dangerous we may land on the surface. So keep your eyes and ears open and use mindspeech if you need to say anything." Tasha first talked to Shar Kag before continuing the mission discussion with all the pilots.

Alexis just nodded and once everyone was set up, it wasn't long before they were in their mechs and lifting off the planet's surface. Once in space they could see the large hulking form of the freighter transport ship. Alexis was quick to surround the ship like Tasha had told her to and as soon as they were all in position and shar Kag was on board and settled in, they jumped into trans-space. It was very different than hyperspace, instead of being like a tunnel where you could see the stars go by, with trans space, it was like space itself folded over leaving the sky looking strange and almost starless and giving most people a strange disorienting feeling and sometimes nasea. In the blink of an eye they were in the Sol system and once there, they switched to Hyper drive with an mind speech order from Tasha. It wasn't long before they could see the red planet in the distance.
