Blade Ship Inquiry

 

Gilian: A man named Cracken? *She looks at Rwos* The same Cracken I met on Coruscant during the period when the sun was blocked out, and later on the planet Korriban?

 

Rwos: There is a Pash Cracken with NR Intelligence, so we should contact Taklin Flax. I don't even know if Lord Cracken is in this dimension. *He narrows his eyes at the ship* However...that reality warp could have been Cracken manifesting his powers. He may have destroyed this ship. We should try and contact the Imperial Loyalists...There is always the possibility that Cracken has returned to his old ways, and will not help us, on the other hand.

 

*He looks at Nereli*

 

Rwos: This Reletha Darkstar, though, I can guarantee that you cannot trust her. For one thing, she is an ursurper of the seat of power she occupies.

 

Nereli: Interesting. However we have no reason to disbelieve her at this point in time. We will contact both these Crackens. You may do it, as you have connections with the leaders of the two groups. In the meantime, we must move on to our next objective.

Tatooine

 

*Kioet is suited up on a field, fighting droids. His transformed Vanguard suit is nearly unrecognizable. It is coated with a material that makes it look much smoother, and blacker. Black plates of armor with an ornate design of shimmering white-blue are placed on it, and green crystal spikes protrude from the shoulders. Kioet's head is completely covered by a black helm, with an opaque white visor.

 

Aren, Farran, Artemis and Shadows watch*

 

Aren: We reworked the suit to sync with a Trandoshan mind instead of a human mind. *She looks at Farran and Artemis* Take a look at this. *She motions to a monitor displaying numbers and percentiles* This is Kioet's sync ratio.

 

*The numbers are fluctuating continuously, but stay generally between 70 and 100%*

 

Artemis: That's...impossible. The best sync ratio I was able to get a treated human subject to sustain was about 50%. His lowest numbers are 20% higher than that!

 

Aren: Behold the mental powers of a Sleeper. And it's only getting stronger, you realize. *She grins* The storm is on the horizon. As it gets closer...you're seeing the signs. And he isn't even nearly at the peak of his power.

 

Farran: How do you know what the peak of his power is? I thought you said Sleeper powers have never been documented before.

 

Aren: I don't know, but I do know that this isn't near the full documented power a Sleeper can show. *She smiles* And of the three documented active Sleepers in this dimension so far, we directly control one, indirectly control another, and are keeping close tabs on the third.

 

Farran: What? Who are the others?

 

Aren: That's my secret, naturally. But don't worry...you'll probably be finding out soon enough.

Obroa-skai System: Just outside of sensors. SSD Lucifer Hangar

 

*F. Irvine walks to his shuttle. This was the first time in the two days after he left Malice to Havok, that he's left his quarters.

 

A trio of white-robed men following him. They had bald heads, pale-white skin, and their faces lacked any sort of expression.

 

Strangely to those who could sense a force presence, they wouldn't be able to sense F. Irvine's, just a weak ripple around him.

 

 

F. Irvine and his 'trio' reach the shuttle...*

 

 

((deac you're cue.))

*Kioet scans the area to get an enemy count, and notes that there are exactly twenty droid enemies*

 

Kioet: Not bad.

 

*Kioet extends his right arm towards a group of droids' direction, the droids automatically start firing on him with repeating blaster cannons*

 

Kioet: Behold: my splendor.

 

*a lightning bolt shoots out of Kioet's right hand and strikes the group of droids, Kioet jumps in the air, avoiding the blaster bolts, activates his shield and unholsters his tank gun and fires a blast, vaporizing the three deactivated droids. Kioet then puts away his tank gun

 

Next, a group of four hovering droids start shooting at Kioet with laser cannon blasts. Kioet lets his shield absorb the blasts, deactivates his shield, then activates his jetpack and flies straight at the hoverdroids, and fires a volley of rocket darts at them, destroying them. Kioet drops behind an assassin droid and melts it down with his flame thrower before the droid even has time to react. A few meters away, the rest of the droids attempt to make a last stand against Kioet all their weaponry aimed at him. Kioet laughs, places a teleport mark, and speeds extraordinarily fast towards the droids, laser and blaster bolts tear by him in slow motion, Kioet stands in the center of the droids, who are still trying to track his sudden quick movement, and quickly equips and drops 4 thermal detonators, recalls to his teleportation spot, and jumps high in the air to dodge all the blasts of the laser and blaster bolts. Kioet's speed returns to normal and the explosions of the four thermal detonators sends droids parts and shrapnel flying in every direction. Kioet quickly scans the area, he missed a droid, but it quickly gets destroyed by all the blasts of its comrades weaponry. Kioet's smile is masked beneath the visor. *

 

Kioet: DAMN...

Tatooine

 

Aren: Fascinating, isn't it.

 

Farran: The Vanguard suit can't draw off droid power. Magic enhancements? What exactly are you planning on doing with him?

 

*Aren grins widely*

 

Aren: *into communicator feeding to Kioet's suit* Csuhen, do you feel you are ready for your first paid mission?

Obroa Skai, surface

 

*Deac's ship lands and him and Syrnl exit*

 

Deac: We need to get to the Holonet uplink satalite, and the only way to get there is from the central Computer bank.

 

*Syrnl is hot-wiring an abandoned speeder. He shocks himself, then places a computer probe from his left finger into the ignition. It starts*

 

Syrnl: Coming? Or do you want to take a bus like a good jedi?

My Good friend Odin,

 

There are two things which I wish to comunicate to you, I will deal with the less awkward first.

 

The current crisis has highlighted to me the need for strong leadship among the nobility in my home sectors. I have always held the Overlordship by majoriety on Agamar and I can rely on most of the Lords on other planets to follow a strong leader. My worry is that after my death my son, Halren, will not be able to hold my coalition together. For this reason I have decided to demand the Overlordship of the Sectors after we have concluded the current war. Needless to say there will be some resistance. It will not be long winded the the Republic will turn inward. I believe that the Republic may become less receptive to envoys from outside her borders during the resultant disturbances. If you want the Republic to commit to anything in writing I would suggest having the Chancellor's Signiture within a standard month.

 

I know you are a capable leader and I merely wishid to inform you of the likely results of my own actions. I hope that I will be able extend an offer you to visit my people before the end of the year

 

My second reason for writing is to ask a favour of you. I know that in the event of your death your people will trigger a holacaust to spare the sentients of the galaxy. I do not wish to debate the moral point with you but as a leader I must ask you to spare my own planet that fate. There is no greater shame for an Agamarian than to be killed while they sleep. I am asking you to allow my people to die with their swords in their hands, though I pray it does not come to pass in my lifetime.

 

Your loyal friend,

 

Taklin Flax

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Kal: I think I should drive.

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Flax: Anyone has to sign for something like that. The only people with free access are the quartermasters. I suggest we check the lists. I would have throught that someone apparently losing their entire uniform would get flagged in the database.

Orbital Hangar, Tatooine

 

*Aren, Kioet, Farran, Artemis and a few accompanying droids exit Kioet's shuttle. Aren leads them to the center of the hangar, which currently has only a sparse number of ships.*

 

Aren: A highly upgraded Cygnus XG-2 Missile Boat. This is how you'll get through to your target. Shields are much stronger, and the armor is reinforced. The laser cannon system is of course completely replaced. We've also changed the missile payload - energy missiles, more powerful than standard fare, and the payload recharges. No single fighter - no single squadron of fighters - is going to take you out in this.

 

You've also got a special weapon, and extremely powerful missile blast that can punch a hole in planetary shields. That's going to be important.

 

*Farran looks at Aren sideways. Aren smiles and presses a button on a remote, and the missile boat's cockpit opens*

 

Aren: I'll be communicating with you via the minature holoprojector in your cockpit, as well as an earpiece once you exit your craft.

Kioet: Wait..where exactly am I going? What are my targets, and where are we expecting to find them? Will I be engaging capital ships and orbital defenses? You said this ship has the ability to punch a hole through a planetary shield...will it work on ships as well? I'm not asking these questions out of fear or anything, just like to be informed.

((Joint AIM post with me and red. would take too long otehrwise.))

 

*Cracken strides into his office, noticing his desk is uncluttered. He smirked, and took a seat. Starr walked in behind him, and stood at attention*

 

 

Starr: What is it, my Master?

 

Cracken: I noticed a small flucuation in your feeligs when you were on the transport.

 

Starr: I...yes, Master. I was off guard from the surprise of your return.

 

*Cracken waved his hand, while checking his messages* Not what I ment, my apprentice. i think i felt them more when we were on the Tyderian class shuttle... *he glanced up* you should know what i'm talking about, yes?

 

Starr: I...am not sure, Master.

Cracken: I think you do. There is conflict bewteen what you have been taught.... and what you want. What you have been indunuated with, and what is new.

 

Starr: Yes, Master. I have felt feelings, emotions...emotions that should be foreign to Sith. You know that this has been my weakness before. *He looks down, remembering his actions in the past...ancient past, on the journey with the Time Matrix*

 

*Cracken nodded* yes, a Sith should reject all of those... emotions, rage, hatred, anger, those emotions feed our power....

 

*Cracken sent the message to starfighter command* but if so, if you recall, how did i have two children and a wife for some time?

 

Starr: Allowing emotions that you cannot control...the ancient Sith warned against that. You have a greater power than I, Master.

 

Cracken: But at the time, i had not this.... extra power, i was a mear Dark Jedi.

 

*He began typeing another message, this one to the armored ground units* The point is Starr, there are something even Sith cannot repress. something so demanding of human nature that they surface whether we like it or not.

 

*Starr bows, partially in attempt to mask the expression playing on his face, knowing anyway that it was a useless gesture in front of his master*

 

Starr: What is this something you speak of, Master?

 

*Cracken stared at Starr, as he hit the send key* Love, Starr. Despite what the Jedi have believed, and what you may have believed yourself, any and all sentient beings can love. *He pointed at Starr* It's this feeling your are hoplessly trying to repress....

 

Starr: But, according to the teachings of the ancient masters...love can only go hand in hand with dominance, can only be used as a path to power. How can this emotion be allowed...without the desire to dominate?

 

Cracken: Ahh yes... The teachings of the Ancients. Those who fought the great Sith War.... *Cracken chuckled* If we went by those teachings Starr, when I married out of love, not dominance, I would have been executed. The only reason Vader didn't hunt me down is because my father would have been very, very upset.

 

Let me tell you what I told my father. Love, one of humankinds most enduring emotions, leads to the darksest emotions... Jelousey, anguish, lamenting, and most of all, Anger. *Again he gave a brief chuckle* And he used this idea against me..... clever man..... *he looked sternly at Starr* The point, my young apprentice, is that love is a powerful emotion, something that a Sith should have. Be it for destruction, chaos, power.... or for family. Take Alys, I have not forced her to take the Dark Side, instead, letting her choose, though by fate, she will fall eventually. Irvine I have left to his own devices, more letting him sort himself out before I start giving him power... I love my family, but not of dominance, but for the fact... they are my children, and I do love them...

 

Starr: ...Forgive me, my master. *He seems at a loss to what to say* ...What must I do?

 

Cracken: What am I, your heart? You're a grown human, it is not my place to meddle in your personal affections. *He stared at Starr* Though know that she is my ONLY daughter.

 

Starr: That is exactly why I ask...Master. What would you have me do, or have me refrain from doing?

 

*Cracken nods in understanding* Cracken: I see... you want to make sure that I don't kill you for wanting to be with Alysara in a most painful way.... * He smiled* I'd rather it be you than anyone else.

 

*Starr bows. His face is expressionless, but Cracken can feel a huge leap of emotion inside him*

 

Starr: I...I understand, Master.

 

Cracken: Now, with that out of the way.... why don't you take Irvine and the Guard down to the docking bay where we have a rather unexpected and rather uninvited guest.

 

Starr: Immediately, Master. *He bows again, and quickly exits*

 

Executor Simulator Bay

 

*Alysara walked down to the starfighter simulator bay. There, the 128th TIE Defender squadron was getting ready for thier sim run against the shipyards. The 128th was recently re-built, and was intended to be Cracken personal TIE Defender guard squadron, but with the on coming war, elected not to lead it. With a vacency for a Squadron leader, the men were a bit nervous.

 

As she entered, they all turned and looked at her. Realizing who she was, they all snapped to attention.*

 

Alysara: At ease, men. My father has deemed it so that I am to take control over one of the TIE squadrons in the coming battle. You are the best, are you not?

 

*The squadron sounded off in a unified "Yes ma'm"*

And is it also true that you are with out a squadron leader?

 

*Again, a unified "Yes Ma'm"*

Alysara: Then I am your new suqadron leader. Let's get to work.

((You can die happy now, Scar. :p

 

Woo! Things are finally moving. :D

 

Now, JM, hurry and post so we can time skip before everyone else leaves us behind ;)))

 

 

Irvine's Presidential Suite, SSD Executor

 

*Starr barges in, an extremely strange expression on his face. It seemed to be the effect of using a somewhat shakey Force illusion to mask another unusual expression. The combination looked quite odd.*

 

Starr: Irvine, come with me. Your father has ordered us to...greet an uninvited guest in the docking areas.

 

----------

 

Orbital Hangar, Tatooine

 

*Aren smiles*

 

Aren: The shield-buster can be used on a ship, but it's limited use, so it'd be a waste to use it on a fighter craft. Your missiles and laser cannons will work just fine. As for your other questions - yes to all. You're going to Coruscant. You'll be "rendezvousing" with your targets there.

 

Farran: Coruscant?! That's been taken over by Imperials and corrupt Republic forces. Why Coruscant?

 

Aren: Because that's where the contingent of Blades investigating this dimension are heading.

 

*Farran is speechless*

 

Aren: Anyway, Kioet, your targets are on their way to Coruscant already. If you want to get there before they leave, you'd better get going now. I'll finish debriefing you when you're in hyperspace.

*Deac, Syrnl and Kal arrive at the uplink station*

 

Deac: Now..how to get in...

 

*While Deac is thinking, Syrnl goes to the two guards standing at the doors and stuns them both with bio-electrical energy.*

 

Syrnl: They'll wake up. Come on, the elevator's not far.

 

[scar, get F. Irvine there.]

*The obligitory squad of 12 Stormtroopers enter from a side door.*

 

Officer: Stop those Jedi!

 

Kal: Master, Stormies!

 

*Ignites sabres.*

Mirra: I was told to deliver the letter to you, My Lord and to say that any reply should be written and sealed.

Irvine's Presidential Suite, SSD Executor

 

*The room still untouched. Nothing askew or tossed about.

 

Irvine sat on his bed, in a meditive position. Very calm now. He looked like he was well and that nothing had happened eariler.

 

At the news, he let's out a sigh.*

 

Irvine "Very well. How ever I would like to speak with my father personally later."

 

*He stands up and walks to the door.

 

--------

 

((Hmm, okay. although i was wondering what sort of things he'll run into when try to land.))

 

Obroa-saki: Space port

 

*F. Irvine's shuttle lands. The cargo bay door opens. The Stormtroopers gaurding the landing pad, suddenly lift up in the air, and get banged about off of walls, and get thrown off of the pad.

 

F. Irvine walks out of the shuttle, and his 'trio' follows.*

 

1 "The Jedi Deac Starkiller and and the one called Srynl Darkstar are near a upload station."

 

2: "We must hurry."

 

F. Irvine "You think I wouldn't know this myself?"

 

3: "Appologies, Master."

 

*F. Irvine and the trio lift off of the ground, and fly up into the air, and race towards the other three.*

 

((happy deac? :D))

SSD Executor

 

*Starr and Irvine board turbolifts and are taken to the docking bay. They approach Chavo's ship*

 

((JM: Your cue))

 

----------

 

Orbital Hangar, Tatooine

 

*As Kioet takes off, Aren walks over to one of the side portals in the orbital hangar and begins punching in a code*

 

Farran: Are you insane?

 

Aren: What? Isn't this what you two had in mind when you stole Executioner technology?

 

Farran: There's only one of him, and - How many Blades are there?!

 

Aren: Oh...about thirty, forty, give or take. But I only expect he'll be facing nine or ten, the inquisitorial group.

 

Farran: Ten! Ten high-class Blades to one imperfect Executioner model?! Sleeper or no, you're sending him to his death!

 

Aren: Aw, are you worried about your hired mercenary, Ariel? Or are you just jealous because you saw him first? *The portal opens in a flash of blue* Do you really think I'd have such a useful tool destroyed right off the bat? Please, you underestimate me. As always. *She steps through the portal, disappearing*

Nom and Tarila had gone to their ship, still in orbit of Tatooine, but Tarila was growing impatient.

 

"Are we going to go after one of the targets?" she demanded. Nom smiled, but shook his head.

 

"Not yet," he answered. "We have to wait for Greer to pick up his... enemy. When he has gone, we will begin." He stood and gripped Tarila's shoulders. "Be patient, little sister. We will not stay here forever."

*Chavo heard footsteps echoing in the hangar. He walks out of the ship while he yells out.*

Chavo: All right! I'm coming out, don't shoot me.

*He sees Irvine*

Chavo: What are you doing here? Don't tell me because you beat me I ain't gonna get paid, I've been searching for this guy for months now!

((Seems everyone's forgotten about Chavo's storyline, JM. :D

 

I've been rereading the old Cantinas to figure it out, and have got as far as the end of Cantina 9, where Chavo is hanging around with the two Irvines.

 

Will post again once I figure out what's going on/confirm whether or not Starr knows Chavo. :p;)))

*Cracken strode down the prison garrison aboard the Executor, reaching the cell he wanted. He nodded to the guard, who opened it.*

 

Leave us.

 

*The trooper nodded, and walked back to his station.*

 

Well, Admiral Luthen, my apprentice has made mention of you having information we need.

*His eyes began to glow white*

 

Now, we can do this the easy way.... or the hard way....
