starmark2k Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 ((@stringerhs- I'm pretty sure Wildjedi intends for us to escape this, just so you know that your character outside proberly isn't a good idea.)) "O.k you can try and prep your spacesuit but be careful." Nic said just before XoRRox stormed in. "What is going on! I have work to do, and all people are shouting all the time! Can you tell me, sir?" Nic Turned his head back to Oliver "What's going on?.. What's going on?.." Nic Points out the front viewing window towards the Imperial Fleet and the ship thats heading towards them. "That's 'what's going on.'" Nic goes back to the intercom "Beryl, Cloud would you two very much mind, getting you asses into top GEAR!!!" He said calmly with the exception of the last word which he shouted.

stingerhs Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 ((i figured. still, i'm just trying to stay in character as that is what a Jedi would probably do.)) Ryshana nodded quickly and headed back towards the cargo hold. Grabbing a suit near the airlock, Ryshana started to put it on when she remembered that it might be a good idea to have her lightsaber outside of her suit. Good thing this is a flexible model. Its nice when you don't have a set of big, clunky armour getting in the way, Ryshana thought for a moment. Placing her lightsaber in one of the pockets, she finished putting on the suit. Waiting for situation analysis from Nic, she paused before she put on the helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtreamJedi12 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 “Cloud, I know it’s a bit risky, but see if you can reroute the auxiliary power through to the thrusters. It sounds like we’re in trouble.” "That might work." Cloud said. "Beryl, Cloud would you two very much mind, getting you asses into top GEAR!!!" "I'M WORKING ON IT! WE'RE ALL UNDER PRESSURE HERE CAPTAIN, SO SHUT UP AND LET ME WORK!" Cloud cooled off and said "Sorry about that, captain." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted February 14, 2006 Author Share Posted February 14, 2006 "She betrayed the Jedi, Beryl," Jana answered icily. "As Riebe Sothe, she betrayed them. Joined the Empire. Don't think for a second that she's incapable of turning on us now." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Beryl shook her head. She still disagreed with Jana, but now probably wasn't the best time to argue about it. It didn't matter to her what name a person went by. Since the Clone Wars, a lot of people had changed names. But changing a name was easy. Changing the person inside was not. And the person she knew as Instuctor Tarla Vel, would never cave in to serving the Empire. Never. And it would take more than a word from Jana to convince her otherwise. Beryl glanced at the timer again. "One minute, eight seconds," she said through the comm. Turning to Cloud, she asked, "How's it goin'?" referring to his progress on the thrusters. "Anything I can do to help?" He was working in a very small area under a panel. Not much room to manuoever, but she offered her assistance anyway, just by way of some moral support.

XoRRoX Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 "That's 'what's going on.'" Oliver looked on the big impertial ships, and tried to take a deep breath, but it wasen't a succes. He did shaking. "Well...anyone who knows, where Beryl...is...?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmark2k Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 "she's in enginneering." Nic answered to oliver as he continued looking at the sensors, "they'll be in weapons range 30 seconds, we need those thrusters now!" Nic shouted into the intercom.

ExtreamJedi12 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 "Yeah, Beryl. You can help." Cloud said. "Toggle that switch over there." As Beryl toggled the switch, Cloud snipped a couple of wires and put them together in another order. "That should do it. Try it Nic." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 "Let's hope this buys us the time we need," Beryl whispered under her breath. "Thrusters go, Jack!" she hollered to the bridge on the comm. "Sublights back on line in thirty five seconds!" She gave Cloud a hopeful grin, although she was beginning to get nervous now. If they got boarded.... Her grin faded. Best not even to think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmark2k Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 "Spin us around Jack, then move us forward as fast as you can with the thrusters." Nic Ordered as he transfered the shields power to the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Beryl felt the ship change directions. She smiled at Cloud. "We're moving! Good work!" The restart timer was counting down. Ten, nine, eight.... As Cloud was still underneath the panels, Beryl flipped the switches for restart... Five, four, three, two.... ...saving the last switch for... One. She flipped the last switch, and the sublight engines started to whine. "Sublight engines on!" she screamed into the comm. "Hit it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmark2k Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 The Echo quickly Began to fly forward as the Imperial vessek began to fire on the Echos rear shields. It moved forward for less than 10 seconds before the hyperspace engines powered up and shot the ship into Hyperspace. Nic sat back into his chair and relaxed "Nice one crew." He said pressing the intercom button. "We should make it to corellia within the hour." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Corellia? Beryl exhaled a sigh of relief. She could do with a visit home. "I don't know about you, Cloud, but I sure could use a drink about now." She thought about Oliver's boxes of 'Jawa Brew' hidden under her bed, then shuddered. No, not something quite that strong. Although... "Hey, I've got a bottle of Corellian Ale hidden behind the flour canister in the galley?" she said conspiratorially to Cloud. "Finish up here and come join me. You deserve a treat."

stingerhs Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Ryshana sighed to herself all over again. It was a bit curious, though, since she still felt that same pressing darkness. If Riebe is gone, and we're in the clear, then why... Ryshana started to think. As she finished taking off the suit, Ryshana remembered that her lightsaber was still in the pocket of the spacesuit. Pulling it out, she paused for a moment. Slowly, Ryshana began to clear her mind. Focusing inwards on herself, she finally calmed herself down. Taking off the outer cloak of her robes, Ryshana breathed in deeply. Now in just modest coverings, Ryshana felt more at ease with herself. Igniting her lightsaber, Ryshana began to go through an exercise program. In her mind, Ryshana could envision enemies attacking from all directions as she performed the exercise. To any bystander, it would appear that she was doing a particularly dangerous dance with her lightsaber. However, to anyone trained in the martial arts, they would recognize exactly what she was doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtreamJedi12 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 "Alright." Cloud said to Beryl in a proud voice. As Beryl walked away, he knew he had done good for the crew and deserved a good treat. He finished up and headed to the galley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 In the galley, Beryl reached into one of the food storage units and fumbled about until her hand felt the bottle she had hidden there. "Got it," she said, pulling out the bottle and setting it on the table. She set out two glasses, and poured each of them a drink, then set the open bottle on the table. She figured that the fragrance would entice Nic and the others to come out to join them at some point. Corellian ale had a distinctive nutty type of smell, but it had a smooth taste and felt silky on the way down. A far cry from Juma Juice. Or any type of Jawa concoction. All in all, it was extremely tasty. "To a job well done," she said to Cloud by way of a toast. "And to Corellia. Home port of traders, shipbuilders, and the best trained soldiers in the Galaxy." She had wanted to go home for a while, but never pressed the issue with Nic, figuring that he would eventually make it there one day. All traders did. Traders like her brother, Rayne. Hmm...Rayne.... Rayne might be able to unload that Jawa brew. He owns his own transport company. Surely he could find a buyer for Oliver. And, I might even be able to convince him to take the swoop bike cargo to Alderaan for us. When Nic shows up, I'll mention that to him. After I apologise to him for lying about the Headhunter, that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XoRRoX Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 "Coreilla? Sounds nice to me" he mumbled, while he walked back to his room. He took a big gulp of one of his drinks from Dantooine, and began to sleep. All outside could hear, that he had "one of these nightmares" again.

ExtreamJedi12 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 "A toast," Cloud started. "To the Rebel Alliance for doing the right thing and standing up for freedom, justice, and other things. Also, another toast Corellia." He drank from his glass. Then, something in the back of his mind told him that Sephiroth was near. Suprised, he started to choke on his ale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmark2k Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Nic walked in as he heard Cloud make his toast, he laughed quickly and continued over to the Water tap. He never knew why people made a big deal about the rebel alliance, they were small and completly fractured. The word 'Alliance' was virtually useless when talking about these rebels, they were so busy arguing amongst themselves the empire barely considered them nusance let alone a serious threat.

Writer Posted February 16, 2006 Author Share Posted February 16, 2006 "Alliance is a relative term," Jana said, coming in from the other side of the room. "Until they find a leader... if they can't find a leader, they will never truly be allied. And if they're never truly allied, they've no hope of survival. The Empire is allied... all who serve do so under a common fear." She shrugged. "I'll be in my room if anyone needs me." She headed off that way.

JasraLantill Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 As Jana marched off down the corridor, Beryl raised a solitary eyebrow. Well...Jana sounded rather... 'snippy' just then. Hmmm? Suppose it has anything to do with Tarla or Riebe or whatever she wants to call herself these days? She shrugged. She'd talk to Jana later. "Erm...Nic?" Beryl started. "I owe you an apology. For lying to you earlier about the Headhunter. I know you already know that's it's damaged. But I didn't lie to you just cover up my mistake. I did it because I didn't think you needed the added worry, with all that's happened lately. I'm sorry." She paused. "I'll fix it, no cost to you, don't worry. Oh," she added brightening a bit. "And my brother Rayne runs a transport company in the Corellian system. I'm sure he could help us deliver those swoops to Alderaan. I'll contact him if you want me to."

starmark2k Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Nic heard Beryl out and smiled at her after she finished "Firstly, ou don't need to apolgise, I'd be more worried if you never took damage, that would mean you're not doing your job." Nic paused for a second while he took a sip of his drink. "Secondly, We can use your brrother as a last resort, we may be able to get good money for the bikes on Corellia by cutting out the middle man." Nic placed his drink on the table "I'm going to talk to Jana... But see if your brother can sought us out a discreet landing area." Nic then walked off towards Jana's room and knocked on her Door.
