The Sanguine Star


Gaalgoth

Recommended Posts

((OOC: I'm bored so I'm going to start another RPG. Anyone's welcome, just preferably no Jedi...they're so annoying. The Star is incredibly powerful and linked with high members of the Empire))

 

The zabrak crawled on his belly through the underbrush of Endor. This was the third day of his hunt on the planet. He was a bounty hunter by profession, known as Varan Ashard. He was of average height with a wiry build; he'd worked several odd jobs throughout his life but usually wound up either hunting bounties or as a bouncer to whatever shady nightclub needed a hand. He was neither Imperial nor Rebel. He held both factions in disdain, The Imperials being mindless drones to repetition and order and the Rebels being fanatics for a lost cause. His prey was the head of intelligence for the Sanguine Star, one of the most powerful crime organizations in the galaxy.

Varan pulled out his binoculars and peered through the foliage at the criminal camp. He could see seven tents in a circle around a fire with 13 humanoids sitting or standing around it. Varan didn't see the one he was looking for. As he lowered the binocular he felt a cold cylinder against the back of his head. A gruff voice spoke.

 

Voice

Well what do we have here? The boss doesn't like spies.

 

Varan

Well what the boss doesn't know won't hurt him, will it?

 

Varan grabbed the man's ankle and tugged it, pulling the man off his feet. He dropped his blaster to the ground and Varan quickly spun around grabbed him in a headlock. He twisted and felt the man's neck snap with a satisfying crunch. Hiding the body in the underbrush, Varan scaled a nearby tree and continued his watch over the camp, waiting for his move.

OOC: Thew- no preference, Red- yeah it is.))

 

Varan looks down in the direction of the voice

Varan

Keep your head down, if you blow my cover I swear--

 

Voice

Calm down Varan, I'm not going to blow your cover.

 

He skillfully climbs the tree and finds a perch next to Varan

 

Figure

So who are you after?

 

Varan

I don't see him yet, but he's down in the camp. He's with the Sangui--

 

Cutting Varan off is the shouting of the men followed by a massive barrage of lasers. Varan is hit in the left shoulder and falls off the tree, hitting the ground hard. The man comes down beside him and lifts him up. The two men run as fast as they can.

 

Man

Varan, follow me!

 

The two run into the wilderness, followed close behind by the Sanguine Star.

Figure: My ship's right over that hill!

 

*Pulls out a comlink*

 

Figure: LEEJO, start warming up the engines, Things could get messy!

 

LEEJO: Just how messy are we talking sir?

 

Figure: Real messy!

 

Varan: So, what's the plan?

 

Figure: We run to my ship, get in the turrets, and blast our way outta here! Then, we land somewhere else and approach them from a different angle.

OOC: Thats alright I can just kinda throw my char. in.

 

IC:

As Varan and JoKen dash past they catch a glipse of a shadowy figure. They see him holding some type of long object with two hands.

 

*Crack! Crack! *

 

As they hear the noise they see two of the Sanguine thugs stumble and fall. Then the man turns around:

 

Man: (with a smirk) How are you boys doing?

OOC: Sorry, Gaalgoth, I thought you were talking about my character.

 

IC:

Man 1: Thew, is that you?

 

Before the man can reply they find themselves under a barrage of blasterfire.

 

Varan: You two distract them while I climb that tree over there. Then we'll get 'em!

Man: *mimics Thew's move with his own two blasters* Now Varan, go!

 

Varan skillfully climbs a tree and finds a perch where he could get the perfect shot when a thug notices him and takes a shot at Varan. The shot misses him but hits his blaster, disabling it.

 

Varan: My blaster's damaged, I need another weapon!

 

Man: *Tosses a grenade to Varan* Here!

 

Varan: Thanks!

 

Varnan throws the grenade at the Sanguine Star, and then jumps down t the ground

 

Thew: C'mon!

 

They run to a hill and start to climb it. As they reach the top, Thew notices that the grenade didn't stop the Sanguine Star, and they were now in pursuit.

 

Thew: Don't look now, but they're still chasing us.

 

Man: Don't worry, my ship's just down there!

They reach the top of the hill and looking down see the ship.

 

Varan

You guys get on down there, I'm going to try and hold them back.

 

The two men run to the ship as Varan dives behind a rock. He takes a deep breath and pulling his spare blasters from his holster spins from behind the rock just as the Star reach the crest of the hill. The butt of his left hand blaster catches a man in the face, sending him to the ground. He carries on with the spin, catching another in the throat with the toe of his boot and bringing the heel down on the throat of the first man. Varan falls to the ground, missing the blasts directed at him. He lets off three blasts, each catching a man in the forehead. In a rising spin he catches yet another man with the butt of a pistol and unloads to shots into him as he goes down. While shooting this man another Star member comes up alongside him and hits him in the gut with the stock of his rifle, then once more in the face as Varan hunched forward. Varan is knocked off his feet and on his back when a massive blast sends the man flying. More blasts fly hitting four more men as the rest run for cover. Varan turns and looks in the direction of the blasts and sees a ship. A door opens revealing Thew

 

Thew

Varan, jump!

 

Varan scrambles to his feet and makes a running leap towrds the ship, catching Thew's hand as the ship rises into the clouds. Thew pulls Varan into the ship and the door closes.

Varan

You got it JoKen.

 

Varan walks back to the turret and straps himself in. Seeing a bgey coming in on his right, He lets loose a hail of blasts and sends it crashing back down to earth in flames. A second and then a third fly close by, each ending in the same manner. The ship breaches the atmosphere and a few moments later Varan heres JoKen's voice

 

JoKen

Prepare to jump to lightspeed!

 

Varan leans back in his chair and feels the ship rock backwards. Suddenly he fels a jerk in his spine that quickly spreads to the rest of his body. Varan always hated the initial feeling of lightspeed, but he knew his body would adjust to it momentarily.

Blaster fire pings off the fighter as Thew dives into the cockpit. He immediately takes off then circles back. In a sweeping manuever he flys low over the thugs and lets loose a barrage of blaster fire. Heading for the atmosphere, Thew sees a blinking light on his radar screen. All of the sudden his fighter shakes violently as it is struck with blaster fire. A Y-Wing appears on the horizon in front of Thew. He dives down beneath it, and then fires a few blasts at its underside. The Y-Wing to slow to manuever quickly plummets to the surface. Thew then heads out of the atmosphere and into hyperspace.
