*Farran writes a reply*

 

Message: I'm unlikely to do that unless you try to kill me again. What do you intend to do now?

 

----------

 

*A time passes. Kvana patientily waits for the girl to awaken.

 

Suddenly, the woman's human face spontaneously morphs into that of a vampire's. She stirs and slowly gets to her feet*

 

Kvana: You're awake. Good. I was afraid I'd drained you too much. I was rather starved.

 

*The woman looks around at her surroundings as if seeing them for the first time*

 

Kvana: And now you'll want to eat yourself. Well, we can't just kill in the middle of the public library. Come with us. But try and keep your face hidden.

*Flax frowns.*

 

Flax: Our security isn't as lax as you might think. Yes, the outer temple is open, however, anything in the top 20 levels is sealed, and there are no access panels.

 

As to the mirrors, well, that is going to be difficult. We can't just eliminate night, not without causing mass panic.

 

((OSS: Scar, Ivrine should say something))

*The Valkyrie leaves a brief message before leaving Irvine's quaters.*

Message:

What we intend does not concern you, you have fullfilled your bargin and have saved your life for the time being. Remember we are watching.

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

 

Coruscant: Jedi Temple

 

Goll: Do Jedi only use the top 20 levels? If they don't then you need to secure all levels or leave yourself open to attack.

 

It is your choice, however if you fail to take aggressive measures then these vampires given enough time will overhelm you. Also do not expect any additional manpower from us. We *motioning to her comrades* are it.

 

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

Elysium

 

*Athena and Odin are sitting in a cafe*

 

Athena: We need your help. A couple of days ago 4 escaped from Tartarus.

 

Odin: You really should have contacted us sooner.

 

Athena: I know. Can you help us?

 

Odin: Of course we will help you my dear Athena. I'll send six Einherjar, and a Valkyrie. That should be enough.

 

Athena: Thank you.

 

Odin: *pulling out a com unit* Sleipnir, send a message to Vidar. Tell him to dispatch six Einherjar and a Valkryie to Elysium. There they will be assigned to hunt down for escapees from Tartarus.

 

You have that?

 

Sleipnir: Transmitting now

 

Odin: Thank you. *turns off the com and puts it back in his pocket*

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

 

Mag Mell An Aesirian controlled world near the containment zone

 

*Gerd and Skadi finally arrive over the world of Mag Mell. Skadi brings the transport to land next to a large house. Lowering the boarding ramp the two exit.*

 

Skadi: This is our home

 

Gerd: Wow. *looking around, she had only lived in that small cell on Utgard.*

 

Skadi: *smiles* Come on let's get inside.

 

*The two enter the house. From, they sit down to have lunch.*

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

 

Vanaheim On the Valkyrie Transport

 

Svafa: When we reach Asgard your training will commence in two days.

 

*The soldier nods still a little dumbfounded for being selected to join the Einherjar. Svafa smiles. The Transport breaks atmosphere and heads into space and towards Asgard*

((As far as i knew Irvine did. And one more thing, how does someone even know that name of someone when there is nearly no history of that person? (as far as i knew not even the Imperial council posted any offical infomation about him)))

 

*RH Irvine sits down, and patently wiats for sophae to answer his question, before starting to speak again*

 

---------

 

*the fused Irvine rages though the skies, and inadvertantly crashes head on to another shuttle. glass cut his arm, but he manages to escape quickly before he is trapped in the shuttle as it falls.*

 

*later*

 

*Fused Irvine finds the place where the vampiric horde was lovcated til resent.*

 

Fused Irvine: "They cleaned up in a hurry. We don't sense our former body anymore. Hm!?"

 

*Fused Irvine relised he had had been minorly wounded on the trip here. mos tof the wound had already been healed up on its own.*

 

Fused Irvine: *sensing his own blood, he finds NanoMechines* "Oh, the Nanomechines that we'd had for so long. That creature whom ressurected us must had allowed every part and detail of our bodies to return. Interesting..."

((OOS: BD: About PtH, the group is currently running around on Coruscant, as opposed to some higher plane out of this reality. So if you want to come back from that break...just to let you know ;)

 

[They're going to be on Coruscant for a while, tho, so, erm, no hurry]

 

Scar: ...What? Irvine's a cyborg? If not, how are nanomachines healing him? Even if that's possible (it may just be the caffeine, but I don't think it is), where did Irvine get that technology? :confused:

 

edit: for first a name error, then a time omission.))

 

 

Coruscant

 

*Scene change*

 

*Kvana watches as the new vampire finishes draining the blood from a hapless pedestrian. The vampire finishes her meal and drops the man*

 

Kvana: You still haven't told me your name. By the by, you can change your face back to its human form now, if you wish.

 

*The vampire morphs back to human form* Lilan. My name was...is Lilan.

 

Kvana: I am Kvana. This is Vertmor. Lilan, do you know what you are?

 

Lilan: I am...dead. But more alive than ever. What am I? I can feel...everything. I can smell the rockworms in the walls. I can see the hawkbats hidden in the shadows on the top of that building.

 

Kvana: Yes. You are a vampire. The two of us are vampires as well. You were a human, and I killed you, and I made you one of us.

 

Lilan: I feel strong. I feel powerful.

 

Kvana: And what, my dear, do you want?

 

Lilan: *grins and bares her teeth* To kill. I want...blood.

 

*Kvana smiles*

Outer Regions

 

*Several days ago*

 

*A Shadow's ship floats through space. Another, smaller ship is docked with it.

 

Inside, a group of Shadows in dark red uniforms escorts a group of people inside from the docked ship. Another group of Shadows in the ordinary dark gray suits meets them. One of the gray-suited Shadows, in a slightly different steps forward to speak with the foremost escortee, a tall woman in a business suit.*

 

Shadow: I am Commander Serjin Baken of the Shadows' Twelfth Delegation. We are honored to receive an Associate such as yourself in our---

 

Woman: You can stop fawning now, Commander Baken. I know you aren't happy to see me. Of course, you know that among the many reasons I've been sent is the rather dismal reports of your conduct here we've received.

 

*The Commander tries to hide his discomfort, not answering*

 

Woman: *continuing* That, coupled with the interesting offer of our friend Sejhan, and a few prophecies that have recently been dropped in our hands... Well, let's just say the Partners thought it wise to start devoting a little more time and energy to this corner of the multiverse. In short, I'm taking control here. I, and the other Associates who will be arriving soon, are going to be running things quite differently from now on.

 

*The woman takes off her jacket and hands it to the Commander as she walks past him* Oh, could you get that for me? Thanks.

 

*The Commander doesn't answer. He only stares hatefully at the woman's back as she walks towards the ships's bridge*

((Sorry Scar, missed that.))

 

Sophae: My name is Sophae Flax. How I know your name is not currently important, let us say that I know someone, who knew someone, who knew of you.

 

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

 

*Temple*

 

Flax: I said it was difficult. I didn't say it couldn't be done. There will shortly be a greivous malfuction in the mirrors, which will take several weeks to fix.

 

As to security, there are no entrances below ground level. Jedi use all levals. However, if we closed the temple it would cause riots and Sithmungering.

*Deac reads the pad*

 

Deac: We should land in the bottom of the crater left from the explosion, then go down into the old complex tunnels.

 

*The ship lands. Deac steps out into a room with a hole ripped in the roof from an explosion. Equipment litters the area*

 

I feel something...no...

 

*In the corner lies a broken tube. On the side is printed the words "Subject #2: Deac"*

((Red: the nano's are ment for healing him (remember we wasn't 100% of the time he can use the force :D), but more history on that will come in sometime later.) Eh, screw it. why not now, a little sample... :D))

 

*The fused Irvine still looks at his wound, and remembering his past...*

 

Fused Irvine: "Now in this body it feels so long ago. Longer then it was."

 

[15 years prior]

((slight flash back))

 

Ivan: "My parents. Why must they have gotten the damned disease. My sister, and my nephew too. Damnit!"

 

[end flashback]

 

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

 

RH Irvine: "Very well then. I come here with two objectives. One to applogise on the behalf of my people, on the actions of Kurtis Tacal, he can be spontanious, especally in no win senarios that the one presented to him at that time." *does a half bow*

 

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

 

Vertmor: "Welcome to a new world and a new way of life."

Elysium

 

*Odin and Athena walk to the spaceport. Reaching Sleipnir they pause*

 

Odin: My men will be here shortly. Now I will take my leave of you.

 

Athena: Thank you and have a safe journey.

 

*With a brief Hug. Odin enters Sleipnir. Athena backs away as Sleipnir lifts off*

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

 

Asgard

 

*THe Valkyrie transport lands in the city of Vingolf. Svafa and the soldier exit the ship.*

 

Svafa: The other traniess are over their. Join them, and good luck.

 

*Svafa enters the ship, as the soldier goes to join his comrades. The transport takes off and heads towards Vidi. A short time later they reach the city. The transport deposits Svafa at Vidar's palace. Her footfalls echo in the silent palace.

 

Svafa knew exactly where to find Vidar, in his study. She enters the room softly, practicing the arts of the Valkyries. She slowly approaches Vidar and wrappes her arms around him. Only to find herself flying through the air and landing flat on her back on his desk.*

 

Vidar: *smiling* Hello sister.

 

Svafa: *laughing* I guess I shouldn't have done that.

 

*Svafa gets off the desk*

 

Vidar: Come let us get something to drink. It has been a long time since we have truely talked. *looking at his sister* I see it was time to pick more einherjar.

 

Svafa:Yes, I just dropped one off at Vingolf.

 

*The two leave the room and go to the kitchen. The palace was large enough to house many people, however Vidar was usually the sole occupant.

 

The Two sit down drinking mead*

 

Svafa: Any news from Father.

 

Vidar: He just sent a dispatch to me. Six einherjar and a valkyrie are being sent to Elysium to aid them. I had just given the orders when you so rudly interrupted. *smiles*

 

Svafa: And I'm paying for that interruption *rubbes her back* Mind if I change out of these *lifts her cerimonial robes*

 

Vidar: Go right ahead. You know where your room is I trust.

 

*Svafa heads towards her room to change*

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

Jedi Temple

 

Goll: *speaking in Aesirian* Come the ship will be our base of operations. We first go to investigate the where the latest feeding has occured. After that we go to the library. There is something we must check in to.

 

*The Valkyries return to their ship and leave the temple*

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

Mag Mell

 

*It is the middle of the night when screaming awakens Skadi. She runs to Gerd room to find shaking with fear and in a cold sweat. Skadi goes to the child and comforts her*

((Umm, Scar, I got what they're for. You still didn't answer what I asked...however I'll let it go for now...but if you have the kind of explanation I think you're going to have I'm going to have to eat you alive :p

 

Aso: Careful with the history. You do NOT control Irvine's mother, remember?

 

edit: changed "lack of" to "nonexistent". Sorry, it was bugging me :p;)))

 

Unnamed Planet

 

Rwos: *looks around at the ruins, drawing the first conclusion that came to mind upon seeing the name "Deac" on the broken tube* You...? Is this where you were...made a Jedi? Here? Why did the Trandoshan send us here?

 

*Rwos senses something in the back of his mind, faint, but there*

 

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

 

Ship

 

*The Shadow's ship flies through the eerie vastness of warpspace.

 

The woman, now in a black business suit, sits in the ship's lounge with her entourage of dark-red symboled Shadows around her. The Shadows keep their masks and suits on instead of changing to civilian clothes like others on board the ship, making them appear doubly sinister in contrast to the others. A set of holographic datacases piled on top of each other covers the table in the lounge's center. One is in the holoprojector, another Shadow explaining it like a presentation. Several pictures appear, including Rwos, Deac, Odin, Starr, Flax, Ida, Cracken, and a Valkyrie. The pictures keep changing*

 

Woman: So these are the major players of this dimension.

 

Shadow: O-only the ones we know to be aware of, shall we say, extradimensional presences in this galaxy.

 

Woman: Quite a few. Then there are those who don't?

 

Shadow: Yes. But few true movers and shakers. Most who have connections in this dimension know of it. Mostly because of, ah, the Blade Termand Rwos' poor, or should we say nonexistent, security.

 

Woman: How interesting. Now, on to incidents. I want to know about everything you have seen, detected or heard of that is remotely of interest. I want the reports by this time tomorrow. Alright? Good.

Deac: This was the biggest Imp Research Centre apart from Maw Installation. They did stuff here the emperor didn't know about. I guess they had another portal lab...

 

*Deac moves toward the door and sees something terrible*

 

Oh gods...

 

*Next to the door is a similar tube, broken and covered in dust, marked:

 

Subject #3: Terisaan...*

*At this point Flax walks in on Ivrine and Sophae.*

 

Flax: I'm afraid it is I who should apologise, I put him in that situation. I was also the one who left orders for his exicution.

 

Therefore I present to you his murderer!

 

*Flax gestures and the Assassin walks in, still with his cowl covering his face.*

 

Flax: Remove your cloak, my servant. *Flax gives Sophae a knowing look.*

 

*The Assasssin removes his hood, to reveal........................................................................................................................................................................................................

 

NOTHING!

 

Then the cloak dissolves into the air. Leaving nothing behind.*

 

Flax: *Mock surprise.* Well if he doesn't exist that must mean...

 

*gesture to Ivrins.* Follow me my young friend. *Smile, wink, wink.*

 

((OSS: Ok, who saw THAT coming?

Irvine: "Hmm. Either a Ghost or someone whom likes to play tricks very well. I understand your applogy, still neither the less both parties have some applogises to extend."

 

*Irvine pauses for a second.*

 

Irvine: "Kur was one of my best friends."

 

*Irvine follows Flax, atempting to recover his feelings.*

 

Irvine: *to flax and sophae* "The second objective to my visit for a possible 'truce' between our factions. Not that admittingly that ours does not have the amount of rescources and manpower like the your republic. But its best believed that even minor truce and lead to a freindship. And for this I act as a sole diplomatic ambassador for my people."

 

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

 

*Fused Irvine surveys the soundings around him. He sees old furances and crop tools.*

 

Fused Irvine: 'Looks like some type of historical place, showing off what it was like on planets wiht limited techonoly.' *Sees an old scythe.* 'Ah, what do we here.'

 

*He picks up the scythe, seemly it still is in prefect condition. He stares into it.*

 

[flashback]

 

*laying i'll in his bed, looking outside feebley. A child sees long grassy plains. A doctor comes in and checks on him. He gives a look of disappointment.*

 

*The doctor leaves, and goes to Ivan.*

 

Doctor: "The Disease is genetic. Although yours and my DNA aren't effected by the disease. Others are, its very rare. I'm sorry, but the are of your mother and father, there is no chance for them to survive. As for the rest of your family, it seems like-wise for them, reguardless of thier age."

 

*Ivan remains quiet. But he walks into the child's room. He sees the child's beautiful red hair already begun to lose its color in some strains, the typical known stage of the disease. The child continues to look outside, now someone cutting the long grass with a long curved blade attached to the end of an even longer curved staff.*

 

[/flashback]

 

Fused Irvine: *with blank expression, still staring at the scythe.* "We should have died of that disease..."

((I didn't :D What, did Flax kill Kur?

 

Wow, doesn't Irvine even care how or why Kur was killed? He just wants to be friends with his murderers? Also I don't see why he thinks the Jedi would want to...ah, never mind. Not. My. Business.

 

But: Adopted parent? Then how does she has the same genetic disease? Those aren't quite like the flu...*sighs and chalks it up to Scar not knowing how to explain things* :p

 

(Unless it's just the caffeine that I need, and I don't have.;))))

Rwos: Terisaan... Someone you know? Or...was there another made like you?

Kuat Space

 

*The amassed Imperial Loyalist fleet flies through space, standing ready. Starr and Tojo stand on the bridge of the flagship Titan to address the enormous fleet*

 

Starr: Today we will end this. Today we will avenge the deaths of Lord Cracken and his daughter Alys. Today we will crush the Separatists!

Asgard Vingolf.

 

*Tyr stands at a podium addressing the trainees for the Einherjar.*

 

Tyr: Tomorrow you will embark upon a journey. It will not be easy. Then again if it was easy to attain then it would be not worth as much. The Valkyries have choosen you to join the ranks of the Einherjar. In six weeks time you will join the ranks of chosen warriors. Until then good luck.

 

*Tyr steps down. In unison the soldiers turn and board transports. The trainees were anxious to train and prove to themselves that the valkyries were right in selecting them*

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

Asgard Vidi

 

*Svafa finished changing and joined Vidar on a balcony. The sun was setting*

 

Svafa: Did fathers message state why we were sending help?

 

Vidar: Yes, some Fomorians have escaped Tartarus.

 

Svafa: And we are just sending such a small group?

 

Vidar: That is what father wanted. I assume they will only be assiting, and not actually investigating.

 

Svafa: I hope so. Six would not be a match for a group of Fomorians. Anything thing else?

 

Vidar: Of course little sister. Goll and six valkryies are investigating Vampires. They'll aid the Jedi for the time being. Out main objective is to test the Jedi. See if they are worthy.

 

Svafa: Finally you have an adequate test.

 

Vidar: I hope so. That is what Goll and the others are to find out.

Mag Mell

 

Gerd: *frightened and crying* They are coming for me. They are going to kill me.

 

Skadi: *rocking Gerd back and forth* No my child. You are safe. They cannot harm you anymore. Odin has made sure they cannot escape.

 

*thinking* If they ever did, god help those who would encounter them

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

Ulna Shardes

 

*A valkyrie slips into Ravan's room. And sends a message to Farran*

 

message:

Death and destruction is coming to the seperatist. For keeping your word we tell you this now. We are watching

Coruscant: Scene of the last reported victim of Vampires

 

*The valkyries examine the scene. Nothing was very evident. Garm and Cerberus were sniffing the area trying to pick up scents of vampires. Under her helmet Goll smiles*

Beowulf: Any other lifesigns?

Duriel

 

Sir'Qui: "Master, Do you think that Irvine can pull off such truce or even a treaty between us and the Republic? Shouldn't there have been sent a properly equiped ambassador?"

 

Chi: "I'm sure of it. I was counting on Irvine to show our Jedi, isn't eiter Dark nor Sith spawn. In fact it was my suddjestion to the council."

 

Sir'Qui: "But still, why does it have to be Irvine, Dintov could have taken his place, him being the more diplomatic type."

 

Chi: "It's becuase of his father that I wanted him to preform the duty."

 

Sir'Qui: "Irvine hasn't ever seen his father, or at least he doesn't remember him."

 

Chi: "Still, if his father can go up to the republic and offer a peace treaty, his son shouldn't be held in ther dark, especally when rumors can start if in any case that their family history might get in the way."

 

Sir'Qui: "Otherwise meaning,... That you want Irvine to be known ,and to show that he's compassionate before people might think he'll take the same path as his father did before Irvine, and his father did before him."

 

Chi: "Your learning. I should have focased a little more on that thinking when you were a padawan."

 

Sir'Qui: "What do you expect? You had to train seven of us."

 

Chi: "But you had more then one teacher. I was more of a direct supervisor."

Deac: I don't know. But it is very worrying. Nothing can be done now...

 

*The two of them move on through the darkened corridors, past broken bulkheads, empty containers, through the dark until they reach a chamber. Deac looks over the gantry, then hurries back to Rwos*

 

Deac: Ummmm...you may not want to look down there...

 

*Below them, surrounding a vast portal, are hundreds of black humanoid forms, stormtroopers a kneeling figure and another man with pure black eyes...

Ulna Shardes

 

*Farran finds the Valkyries' message on his computer*

 

Death and destruction?

 

*Farran begins to write a reply, explaining that he didn't want or need the Valkyries' help, then reconsiders and deletes the message*

 

Hey. If they want to keep me alive, then why piss them off for their trouble? So long as they aren't trying to kill me...

 

Guess I'm still an opportunist.
