RPG: Age of Skywalker (Page 18 of 30)

Ma'ryk had been doing little during the confrontation.  Eliminating the remaining guards, but, as ordered, leaving Kuat for Starjammer.  And then the other Mando popped in, and faced off with Drakus.  Frankly, Ma'ryk was growing annoyed with these antics.   And then Cabur's statement of the other Mando, Solus, being her mentor, well, it all seemed very strange.  Ma'ryk lowered his blaster rifle, and faced the group, although not letting his guard down completely.  Ralin was still at Dussk's mercy, but the Trando seemed like he was relenting somewhat.  Panak just had to wait and see what would become of this.

Tanis looked at the 2 squads of 501st Peacekeepers guarding the entrance into the space port. The three of them were behind a building, peering around the corner of an alley at the entrance, sifting through the crowds of people to count the troops.

Tanis was thinking up of the best entrance he could when he noticed that one of the squads was going to make a run though the space port. They formed up and walked inside. This was their chance for better odds. Tanis looked at Shiv from under his brown hood and Shiv took out his lightsaber and ignited it. Tanis nodded and took out his and ignited the green blade also. They broke into a force run and charged the first squad.

Although they were expecting Jedi, no one could expect this kind of attack. The troops were oblitherated. The swinging and spinning of the lightsaber blades looked like an elegant dance of death as black armored limbs and heads flew every which way. In a manner of moments the stunned troops now lay in a pile of cut up bodies.

The crowds immediatly dispersed, yet not too far. They watched in wonder and exclamed in awe. No one had seen a Jedi in action for years. This was hope for them. They to cheer them as Tanis waved the blonde woman over and she ran up to them. The trio sped into the space port and the woman led the way to the hangar housing her ship.

After a few moments of speeding through the corridors and mass of startled people and aliens they encountered the squad that had entered the space port.

A battle broke out in a particularly tight hallway and blaster fire erupted through the corridor. The trio took shelter behind a turn and Tanis peered around the edge as bolts flew by his head. They had to continue.

Tanis and Shiv flung themselves into the blaster fire and began deflecting and dodging all the bolts they could while slowly advancing on the squad. Many were taken down from deflected shots and the two Jedi were about to reach them and begin the slaughter when one unwise soldier tossed a thermal detonator at them.

Shiv defended Tanis as Tanis force pushed the thermal detonator back into the group and it exploded. The squad was reduced to only 3 injured Peacekeepers in an instant because of the tightness of the hallway. Tanis and Shiv sped up and mercilessly cut them down.

Tanis looked back and waved the woman back again and she ran over the bodies and led them through the space port once more.

((No time to post, g2g realy fast but some minor corrections.

1. Dussk's lightsaber is yellow
2. Lightsabers cauterize the wounds they make, therefore, no blood.))

Dussk had moved into one of the corners of the room. He found himself slightly aggravated. Part of him, most of him for that matter, didn't trust Drakus. He felt the anger within the mandalorian. He could feel the desire to kill. He pulled a cigarette from one of his vest pockets, lighting it and deciding he would go for a walk. As he made his way down the hall he paused, there was someone behind him. They were masking their presence, but they had slipped. Before he could react an arm had pulled him back, there was the familiar hiss-and-hum of a lightsaber igniting. It moved closer to his throat and he lifted his head, unless the wielder slipped. The cigarette fell from his mouth. He knew exactly who it was. "Starjammer." He hissed. The inquisitor's grip tightened. "You are coming with me, Trandoshan."

Dussk grinned to himself. "Nice is for Jedi." He growled. A blast of force energy knocked Starjammer's lightsabers away and Dussk activated his own blade as Starjammer pulled his to him, the yellow beam of energy jumping out, and clashing noisily with Starjammer's silver ones. In sustained combat Dussk would surely be cut down, but he had an advantage. He pushed Starjammer back, pulling his WES-TAR from his belt, (he had retrieved it along with his other weapons earlier) leveled it at Starjammer's helmeted face, and pulled the trigger. Starjammer's head snapped back as he was hit, and he crumpled to the ground, unconscious. Dussk ran, heading back to the others.

Corporal griffin stood before the door.

suddenly griffin got word from command

"Corporal Griffin stand down, orders from the commander, you are to report to Inquisitor Thou'n immediatley, i say again abort mission"

<WHAT!? they where one door away from fighting the jedi, and abort mission!?>

"roger that command, squad standing down.......you all get that men? where heading back, leave the explosive and get back to the ship. where going back"

The soldiers where struck at this.

"yes corporal!" the 501st squad shouldered there weapons and began walking back to there drop ship, a crowd had gathered around the proximity of the space port,
Peacekeepers from the 4th and 10th legion had arrived to relieve them.

"corporal griffin, im sergeant jush'akr, 4th legion, here to relieve you of your mission" The sergeant grinned

the 501st replaced by regulars!? dam them!

"yes sergeant, here's the detonator we placed explosives on the hangar door where the absent minded jedi are trying to escape" Griffin said as he tossed the detonator over and walked by to his transport.
They where to rendevouz with Inquisitor Thou'n. the squad was under his command now

Breif Bio: Was alive since the clone wars and joined the empire after the fall of the new republic  and quickly ascended to fleet commander of 5 imperial satr destroyers. 2 years after the battle of endor the empire fell and was under the command of Luke Skywalker who now calls the Empire the Peacekeepers. He is an ex sith lord as well as ex jedi knight.

Cartea had been floating wildly around space for awhile and coudn't seem to see the fleet from his N1's cockpit. suddenly it appeared right in front of him uncloaking and appearing 20 yards from his ships he quickly turned around to avoid colliding with 1 of the star destroyers coming back around slowly to dock. "head for mustafar we're gonna rest and fill up there i have an outpost  there its abandoned but it'll do" "Yes sir" the deck officer turned and headed to the bridge to report the new orders.

Tho'un made his way down the steps, followed by a squad of the 501st. These men had a colorful history, they were Vader's Fist, they executed Operation Knightfall, at this very temple so many years ago. And they were now his to command, along with the Eclipse that hung in orbit. A dropship touched down nearby, The hatch opened and a squad came out. "Sir, Corporal Griffin reporting as ordered!" Tho'un looked at him. Commando. He began to respond but was cut off by a transmission. "-----Einforcements------Repea---Jedi has es-aped!" the transmission ended. Tho'un looked at this commando squad. He briefed them on their new mission, and they headed out.

((K, Nigzy, your going to the ship the Jedi are going to, you will arrive after them. ))

Kharn had found them. The droids guard was almost impenetrable. Kirah had ran off, possibly to a hangar. The droid was slowing him. They were in a narrow hallway. Kharn was pushing the droid back.

"You seek power, but you can not find what you seek while still training under the Jedi. Leave them, their morals make them weak, they seek to protect those who do not deserve protection. You have great potential the only way to unlock it is through the dark side." Kharn regarded the hologram cautiously. "But the darkside corrupts things, it kills, it only brings pain and anger." XoXaan's holographic image smiled darkly. "That is where you are wrong. The darkside feeds off of your strength, your emotions, The jedi keep those from you. The Darkside is the embodiment of life."

----

Dussk sprinted through the door, breathing heavily. "Starjammer attacked me." Cabur looked surprised. "You killed him?!"

"No"

"I'm taking Kuat with me, and I'd like to see you try and stop me" said the battered Mandalorian apparently named ‘Solus’ as he straitened himself.

Ralin raised his left blaster and aimed for the other man’s neck just above his collar plate.  “If that’s the way you want it….”

Cabur quickly moved herself between the two, her hands up, obviously still trying to defuse the situation, though her attention seemed to be distracted. 

"Where is Dussk and the jedi?!" she asked.

Both Ralin and Solus looked around to where they’d thought the others where. 

Ma’ryk, also having been closely observing what was happening between his partners, was just as lost as they were.  “I thought they were, uhhh……..” he shrugged. 

At that moment, Dussk came running back in through a side passage. "Starjammer attacked me."

Ralin’s wrist instantly flicked his blaster away from Solus and up into a read possition as he and the others turned to Dussk.  “He did WHAT?!?” Drakus nearly demanded.

Dussk ignored Ralin as Cabur asked "You killed him?!"

“No”
 
Ralin stepped toward Dussk.  “Why did he attack you??  What did you do??”

“Where the hell have you been?!?” Dussk snapped back.  “Maybe they don’t advertise in to the mainstream holos for you, but Skywalker has standing orders for his minions that all Force users be taken.  And they must join him…….or die.”

Ma’ryk nodded at the truth of the statement.

“You are part of my crew; if he wants to take you, it’s over me.”

“Ha” Dussk laughed in disbelief.  “Yeah, sure; this from the bountyhunter who WORKS for Skywalker.  I only came back for Cabur.  I have a life debt to you, and I want to pay it.  But I have to keep running.  Please come with……”

Drakus stood between Cabur and Dussk.  "Don’t doubt my word, Trando.  You ARE part of my crew.  And until you are not, NO ONE will take you while I live.  Where is Starjammer?”

Dussk didn’t seem to be sure what to think of the situation.  Ralin could feel the force user trying to read his mind.  His eyes narrowed, Dussk seemed to believe Ralin….for now.  “I left him in the passage way back there.  I shot him, but I don’t think he’s really hurt; his armor saved him.”

Ralin picked up his right blaster that had been knocked from him earlier and limped for the exit Dussk had run it from. 

“Drakus wait!” said Cabur.  “We need to get out of here, not start a war with the Peacekeepers!” 

“I have to end this…..”

“Make sense!” growled Dussk.  “I’m out of here; whoever’s coming with me, lets go!”

Ma’ryk nodded again. 

Moving up from behind, Solus spoke up.  “If you don’t mind, I’d also like to save my neck if I can.  Since you all seem to be out of a job, maybe we could hang together for a while.”

Ralin thought for a moment.  He wanted to find Starjammer and end things Honorably; even if that meant killing him…  But Dussk was right; they had to move, and now.  With a quick twirl, his blasters were back in their holsters.  “Fine; lets go.”

Everyone moved at once.  Dussk was nearly out the door before Ralin had finished speaking; Cabur close behind him.

Solus, rather then following, instead ran to the now unguarded Kuat of Kuat, the creature who had been guarding him gone.  Lifting the young man to his feet, they started after the others.  As they passed through the exit, they ran into Ma’ryk and Drakus; Ma’ryk’s blaster rifle in a ready position. 

“You may be with us for the moment," Drakus said, his right hand resting on the grip of his blaster, "but we don’t trust you.  So if you don’t mind, I’ll tag along in YOUR ship for now.” 

*This ok with everybody?*

The blond woman hopped in the pilot's chair and deftly piloted the Light Freighter.  She appeared to be a good pilot he'd give her that.

As Tanis hopped up the ramp.

<Now what?>

"What did he say?"

"He wants to know what we do now.  He has a point.  How are we supposed to board The Overlord's Shadow and fight our way through the multitude of Peacekeepers?"

As the group piled into the turbo-lift, Ralin wondered just what he’d gotten himself into, and if he’d done the right things.  Should I have turned on Starjammer?  I didn’t turn on him; he turned on me by trying to take one of my crew.  But to run from him now….and run where?  We’re libel to have every bounty hunter in the galaxy after us, especially since we’re taking Kuat with us.

The thought of Kuat turned his mind to the Mando standing in front of him, Solus, his hand firmly gripping Kuat’s robe at the shoulder.  What plans do you have turning behind that visor I wonder; and what importance does Kuat of Kuat hold for you?…….or better said for who you work for.

As the turbo-lift sped them to the surface, Ralin’s thoughts shifted again.  I hope Starjammer’s troops don’t know what happened down there yet…..

*this good?  Can edit if needed*

Name:Aliyah Onasi

Age: 24

Affiliation: Jedi- hopelessly devoted to the light.

Appearance: Shortish Blonde hair, blue green eyes. Doesn’t exactly wear Jedi outfits, but something familiar to it. (This is partially because of her isolated training, and early part of her life. I will post a picture hopefully with what I’m thinking) Has tall boots to match.

Vehicle: Likes to think she can fly anything capable of flight, but is still learning. Currently she is attached to an old J42 Nubian that she inherited from her mother, who got it used at an out of the way dealer on Nar Shaddaa.

Powers: Those that are very light sided. Force push and pull. Some Force persuasion, but not mind control. Lightsaber weapons focus, although she has some practice with a blaster.  Force heal, jump etc. Similar powers and abilities to Obi- Wan

Lightsaber: Single blue blade. Her main form is Soresu, but occasionally uses Ataru.

Background: Was born soon after the establishment of the Galactic Empire. Mother and father both saw the hidden force potential of their daughter, but choose to keep this from the Empire. Both parents were from Alderaan, and were close friends of the Organa family. Once her father let it slip that he thought Aliyah was force sensitive, Bail sent secret communications to Ferus Olin, who was secretly searching for Jedi and force sensitives to train on his hidden base. The base was on an asteroid, that was at the center of a stormy nebula, which hid the presence of the asteroid an the training base on it. So that is where she spent most of her time training under Garen Mulin, Jedi Master from before the purge. Her parents decided to move to Nar Shaddaa in order to stay hidden from the Empire less something go wrong. Her father is still alive, although her mother died from a fluke speeder incident. Her father then gave the Nubian to Aliyah and moved to the asteroid to help care for the ailing, aging Garen.

Griffins team dropped on the planets surface,

"Team secure the perimeter! Karlay on me!" he barked out orders to his team.

"Yes corporal!" Karlay slung her rifle and got up off one knee and scurried over to Griffin.

"Right the jedi, according to intelligence are trying to escape via an unknown and unregistered craft. we need to storm the place and get them quickly your 2IC as usual so stay close, we'll be using a simple straightforward three point strike, three entrys at the same time take them by suprise"

"by your command corporal... Team get in formation where moving in!"

The team approached the hangar in which the jedi had holed themselves in!

"prepare to breach!" Griffin whispered

He unclipped the sling on his rifle and raised it to his shoulder and crouched ready to spring in,
he switched his rifle to automatic fire and loaded a thermo (thermal detonator) into his UGL.

"ok men, when your ready blow it!" Griffin gave the preliminary command

(( When you jedi are ready you can set off the doors, try not to kill too many of my men now or if you want we can capture you and take you to the fleet? as you said you wanted to be captured ))
