"Although those papers would say something more to the liking that he'd get punished for anyway."

"The message is a warning to a 'Reletha' about your fleet coming to her world (I assume to conquer it). I'm sure you wouldn't let a spy live, so it shouldn't matter that I killed him."

Behemoth "Although I'm not the type to forge documents, but hell, if I can get a job, knock someone off and get a bit of cash in my pocket when I do it. Fine with me."

"I'm not the type to forge documents, in case you're wondering. But I have no problem killing someone for money if I need a job."

"But that's not enough to convince ya, how about at least keep this one a gentlemens fight?"

"But if you still want to fight me, how about we at least keep it a gentlemen's fight?"

((Thanks Red.))

Flax: If by Gentalman's fight you mean I won't kill you if you beg for mercy then it will be a gentalman's fight. If you mean we will conform to a set of constricting rules first dreamt up by men who spent their spare time pilaging and raping then I'm afraid you will be dissapointed.

Behemoth "Pilaging? Raping?" *laughs* "You think wrong of me. Five hundred years ago I stopped random packs composed of half humans from doing that. But you're a Jedi, from what I heard about you lot, that you're bound by honor. I'll disarm all but my sword, if do the same."

*Greer, worried that Flax hasn't shown up, goes to look for him*

Kuat

*Four TIE Vultures, modified to carry heavy bombs, swooped down low, in formation. They crested the ridge and saw the shield generator, protecting a military installation.*

Gamma 1: This is gamma lead to 1 flight, target insight, transmitting data, let's do it.

*They climbed quickly, and then dove plummeting toward the Generator. At the last minute, they unloaded thier bombs, and blew the generator to pieces.*

Gamma 1: Command, Gamma lead here, shield generator protecting Kuat Defense Corp is destroyed. commence bombardment, Over.

*Aboard the Executor, this was excellent news. Cracken nodded to Tojo, who ordered the strike.

The fire coming from the Fleet changed from blue to green, as turbolasers all headed straight to the planet. They found thier target, and laid waste to the entire base.*

((Waiting for a surrendur from SOMEONE. ^^))

((...

I repeat...CALLING ALL DEACS! XD))

[Right: Mega Postage Time!]

Kuat

*The drive yard defences in ruins, General Iomin, the Administrator orders a comm channel opened between him and the Executor*

Iomin: Executor...we have one card left to play. We can order the self destruction of all the shipbuilding facilities...and I know you don't want that. If you agree to stop your attack and let our suriving forces gather their wounded and withdraw, we will not use that option. Those are our terms.

*The SSD Lucifer continues moving through hyperspace as it continues its course of destruction toward Coruscant*

Obroa-Skai

*Deac carries Syrnl's body aboard his ship and places it in cold storage*

Deac: Kal. We're going to join up with the main fleet. I imagine we'll be attacking Coruscant soon and that's where we need to be.

[Anything else?]

((Mega post? I remember when a mega post was as big as the whole page!



And did no one notice my post?))
*Chavo starts singing again.*
-----
*Greer sees a guard looking a bit suprised coming out from a corridor. He recognizes him as one of Flax's asks him what's going on, and before he gets an answer he runs to the corridor, blaster in hand. He aims it at Sabbac-man/behemoth/davin/whatever*
Greer: Drop your weapon.

((Um, Flax and Behemoth are locked in a room))

*Cracken mused for a second, then hit the comm key*

Agreed Administrator. Welcome back to the Empire.

*Cracken cut the link, then hit the comm for his armed forces*

Attention all attacking forces. Kuat has surrendured. Move in for occupation. All fighters, dock at your respective ships for patrol duties. Excellent work.

*Cracken rose out of his chair, and looked at Tojo*

Admiral, send a communique to Flax's forces, we are poised to strike Coruscant to aid in it's capture. We are holding at Kuat. We can move in anytime.

*With that Cracken turned, and walked off the bridge..*

*Kioet switches his targeting systems to the shield buster weapon and fires on the planetary shield*

Kioet over comm: Now what?

*Sensing Greer Flax uses the Force to unlock the blast door and Greer runs in.*

Flax: *Now when he speaks his tone is harsh.*You are an assassin and beneath contempt. You are not a warrior and will not be accorder that respect.

*Suddenly his own blaster is in his hand.*

Flax: I will not shoot you in the back, and neither will he. That is unless you make a move towards either of us, you go for one of us and the other shoots you in the spine. Now I will repeat, drop all your weapons and surrender.

*The door has closed behind Greer.*

((I will explain in the discussion thread.))

((Don't worry JM, Chavo will be get his attention after this next thing :D

R15: Kioet still had the other two rings of Golan platforms to get through, so I'll assume he just trashed them for the sake of...well, because this scene has to be over so we can time-skip and Cracken can arrive. :D))

Coruscant

*An iridiscent purple-blue ring blasts from one of the missile boat's overhauled launchers and impacts the planetary shield. A glistening rip opens in the shield. A second energy ring tears open the second shield layer*

Aren: Get through before the hole closes. I'm transmitting you a flight path to follow that should let you avoid any immediate trouble. Your targets are in the underlevels.

*Kioet's ship flies through the hole in the shields, which after a minute or two shrinks and closes. Left behind the missile boat is a silent swath of destruction, pieces of fighter craft mixed in with larger chunks of half-obliterated Golan platforms, turbolaser emplacements and assorted transport craft. A path of destruction wreaked by just one ship in only a few minutes.

Kioet's ship heads down towards the underlevels*

Aren: The Imperials will more than likely send some forces after you, and they'll be more prepared this time. Find a place to hide your ship and disembark. I'll transfer communications to your suit itself once that's done and will guide you from there. Excellent work, Csuhen.

---Time Skip: Indefinite---

((Scar, Cracken (and BD?): All clear. Get the heck to Coruscant. :)

edit: Scar, see PMs.))

((I'm waiting on Scar to make Davin get smart, I can't time skip till then.

Point of fact, I had planned to do two skips so the imminant megga post will be Scar's fault.))

I have no idea how much later or where... :p


The giant black ship of Nom and Tarila Vilnov dropped out of hyperspace and approached the coordinates designated by Greer.

((If Scar doesn't move in the next two hours I'm going to kill Davin and time skip.))

*Behemoth tosses most of his weapons across the room. And then rolls up his left sleve and pulls out a blaster, holding it in his right hand.

He points the blaster horizontally at his arm, and stares Flax in the eye.

After a minute of nothing but silence between the three.

Then he shoots his blaster at his arm. The blaster bolt grazes his arm and arcs upward and hits the ceiling. The wound shows that his skin as altered around it gradually changing from a human-like skin to a red scaley-like surface.

He then tosses that blaster and unsheathes his sword, but keeps it pointed at the floor beneith him.*

Behemoth "You think too little of me Talkin Flax. Blaster bolts can't penetrate through dragon scale."

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

Coruscant Space: 4 Days

*F. Irvine's fleet exits hyperspace at Coruscant first an addition to the fleet a large dark orb follows...

F. Irvine sits on the bridge of the Luficer. He wears dark shrouds covering him self completely. He looks at his hand although he still looks like a pure and untouched by the dark side. But he feels it following like rampant rivers through each of his veins.

He slowly closes his hand, and quick black arcs of lightning bursts escape from his hand.*

*****Flash back: 3 days*****

Shardonis

*A large city is in flames, the dead lay about. Massive amount of a body count. This was just one of several hundred cities on the planet.

F. Irvine sits on a piece of rumble looking at his work. Then he gets up and kicks off and flys up into the air. With the force he speeds up at an incredible rate and he pauses at another untouched city.

He takes a deep breath and opens his hand and points it at a structure in the large city. He feels a surve of dark force flowing in him and he lets out a large yell as a rush of pure force destruction energy flys from his hand. Unlike Cracken's typical Red sphere's of force destruction, F. Irvine's was more of a black wave of energy.

The energy hits the building and Black Arcs of lightning irrupt from it. The physical shape of it twists and contorts, then it shaters blowing hunks on dribris in all directions.

F. Irvine flys down to a fleeing crowd, and F. Irvine stops ead in the air once again. He looks at the crowd and then unleaches a fury of his 'destruction' waves.

Some of the people caught in it either becoming obilterated in the blast, or just simply burst in blood and gore. In the wakes of the blast effect the envioment around the blasts. There are 'pockets' of space where it seems that time itself either sped up or slowed down, or just haulted to a dead stop. A few people were suspended in mid air, while in between a 'fast' pocket, inhumanely tearing innocent people apart.*


*F. Irvine had completed his campiagn on two other large planets, causing mass atrocities on them with the aid of Malice and with her controlling about 3 thousand 'drones' inside the Orb ship.*

**********

* F. Irvine's fleet sits outside Coruscant's defencive grids, awaiting for Coruscant to hail them.*

*Cracken sits in his ready room, nervous. He didn't want to leave Kuat with the fleet to Coruscant until he heard from the Rebels, however, things were moving there. He could feel it. Over the past few days, there were a great many disturbances in the Force, which to attributed to one person.

The Clone.

He made a decision. He keyed the comm to Tojo.*

Cracken: Admiral, you have 30 minutes to prepare the fleet. a contingent of Star Destroyers will stay behind to defend Kuat, the rest of the fleet will head to Coruscant. Recall my son, I will need him.

Tojo: Yes, m'lord.

Kuat: surface

*A shuttle with it's cargobay door open and Stormtrooper holding on comes in close to the forward command station.*

Stormtrooper "Commander! You're presence is asked back on the Executor."


Irvine "Very well."

*Irvine force jumps into the shuttle and flys off rapidly.*

-----

Kuat: Executor docking bay

*Irvine's shuttle lands in the Executor and he leaves the shuttle.

Irvine is met up with a leutenant as he walks towards the docking bay door.*

Leutenant "Commander, the Lord asks of you on the bridge."

Irvine "I figured he would."

*Irvine continues through the large captial ship to the bridge.*

Flax: A demon!

*Flax uses the Force to knock Behamoth back against the bulkhead, knocking him unconcious*

*Flax activates his comm.*

Flax: We have a code Delta-6-Bravo. I want this thing in containment.

*A few minutes later soldiers arrive and the blast doors are raised. They load Behamoth into what amounts to a solid titanium steel coffin with three inch thick walls. The container is locked down and Behamoth is carted away, he is then dumped into a re-enforced holding cell and the door slammed shut.

1.5 Days

*The Fleet reverts to real space over Arkania.*

*Starfighters are deployed into a protective screen as the fleet fans out and fule tankers begin to move between the ships. As the ships are refueled supplies are transferred and perrsonnel are shifted from the Independace II back to their own war ships.

At the same time four Strike Carriers, each carrying a Squad of X-Wings and three of K-Wings moves to join the Fleet. At the same time 200 Storm Trooper Transports launch from the planet and dock with various crusiers to transfer strike toops for the invasion.

The X-Wing designated Red One launches from the planet and is recieved into the Hanger of the Independance II.

Once the Fleet is restocked and re-organised it jumps back to hyperspace. The entire process taking just three and a half hours.

Six hours later.

*Flax stands at a podium, conducting the final briefing to his squadron commanders.*

Flax: In forty-two hours we will revert from hyperspace and begin our attack to re-take the Capital World.

Our fleet will spread into the cresent formation, with the strongest ships on both flanks and in the centre. Our frigates and gunships will cover our crusiers while they slag and enemy capships and cut a path through the orbital defences for our transports.

Our A-Wings will provide long range bomber and heavy fighter intercept. You know the drill, dupes and star-wings first.

Our Y-Wings and B-Wings will be attacking the enemy Cap-Ships, escorted by our E-Wings and a quarter of our X-Wings.

The Remainder of our X-Wings will protect our troop transports as they go in. Remember to keep track of your own group, we have over 400 so the sky will be cluttered.

Everybody, remember watch your fire.

Now, we were going to insert a commando team to bring the shield down but we've recieved word from the resistance and the've aggreed to lower the shield as soon as we jump in.

This means that Colonel Greer's team will be heading straight for the Imperial Palace.

General Dralson's assault troops will be headed for the Govermental sector, they'll be going into the thick of it so the K-Wings have been brought in for precision bombing.

The Secondary mission for our X-Wings is to cover the K-Wings, remember though, the transports are more vulnerable, so they're your top priorety.

Remember tonight is the last night any of the bars will be open until we win this thing, so make the most of it.

Dissmissed.

*As Flax leaves the podium he puts a hand on his son's shoulder.*

Flax: When this is over you need to go home.

Hal: I don't have to deal with this now.

Flax: The longer you leave it the worse it will get.

Hal: I'm not avoiding it, it's just I don't think now is the right time.

Flax: Lady Sarella told me that if you didn't go home that they'd come to Coruscant. Oh, and your horse has been nabbed out of the stable again.

*Hal looks to the haevens.*

Hal: How does she do that!

*Flax chuckles.*

Flax: Come on, I suggest we take my advice.

*The Two men leave.*

((Deac, if you want Kal and Deac could have met the fleet at the stop off.))


((P.S. Has been edited to please Scar, hope he reads it.))

*Cracken was talking to several Admirals and Generals on holovid conference as Starr, Alysara, and Irvine walked into the main conference room*

Cracken: ... So the Vengence is loaded, and the personel re-distributed to retake over Kuat's production capabilities?

Admiral Korchev: Yes m'lord. The plan should go according to you design.

Cracken: Excellent. Report to the Executor immediatly. You shall control the Vengence remotly. We jump in 5 minutes. do not be left behind.

The rest of you have your orders.

*The leadership nodded, and Cracken turned to his children and his apprentice*

We strike Coruscant shortly. We should arrive 1 hour before the Rebels do. We are there to pave the way for them. You will all join me and head stright for the Imperial Palace, to kill Reletha Darkstar, and end the war forever.

*Cracken paused, then spoke*

There is a strong chance the clone will be there. If the event that he appears, I will deal with him, the rest of you find Reletha.

*5 minutes later, The Imperial Fleet lept into Hyperspace.*

*Chavo feels the ship go into hyperspace, sighs and starts singing again*
-----
*Greer and co. prepare for the upcoming mission*

((F*** you BD thats so f***ing godmoding

you do take absolutely no consideration for other people's characters and etc. I do not care if i dont have the time for it

thats not how i wished for it to happen. and like i stated you took no consideration that he'd notice and get out of that immedately when he did it. in which you never gave such chance for me to deside that it wasnt, it is godmoding))

((Gah. Let's not start flaming, please.

See discussion thread for additional comments.))

[B]Fleet, En Route To Coruscant

*Deac sits in his assigned quarters, thinking about his brother. An aide chimes at the door*

Deac: Yes?

Aide: Sir, your prescence is requested on the landing deck.

Landing Deck

*Deac arrives and is met by Drill Sergeant Gavor Dol'kosh, a bothan(

Gavor: Sir. I have your new orders *Hands Deac a sheet of paper*

Deac: I'm to command a company?

Gavor: Yes sir. Krayt Company, 87th Regiment. This company.

((JM, take notice, please.:p ))

Coruscant

*The Imperial Fleet appears over Coruscant, and began empting it's load of firepower down upon the defenses of the capital world. Fighters poured out of the mass of ships, and began fighting off the swarm of fighters that meet them.

The Vengence however, remained at full speed, headed directly for Coruscant. It made contact with the outer shields, and the engines continued to fire. Explosions ripped through the front decks, as the shield tried to repulse the massive ship. Soon enough, the outer shields overloaded, and failed. The Vengence suddenly accelerated, slamming into the Inner shield. It appeared to repluse the Super Star Destroyer, but the engines fired once again, blowing out power regulators along the ships engine lines, leaving an unrestricted amount of power to the engines.

The inner shield failed, and the populace watched in horror of the massive ship headed to the surface. Suddenly, the Vengence detonated, remotly controled by Admiral Korchev aboard the Executor. Debri flung itself out into orbit, and toward the planet, creating a bed of devastation around the blast zone.

Right behind the explosion, a shuttle and it's TIE Vulture and Defender escort. The shuttle touched down, about 4 blocks from the Imperial Palace. Cracken ran out, followed by Starr, Alysara, and Irvine. Cracken motioned forward, and began to make his way to the Imperial Palace...*

Shadow Base, Tatooine

*A droid alerts Aren to an urgent message being sent her*

Message: This is Shadow base AA-23, location Ceradonia. We have been attacked. The Sleeper has arrived and gone. Base has been demolished along with most of the city.

*Aren curses*

Aren: We didn't get Cracken to him in time. I'll have to execute one of my scryers. *She calls in another Shadow* Do we have the status of the third Sleeper?

Shadow: Yes, Ms. Aren. We have confirmed he is en route to Coruscant, and should arrive within a few minutes. The second Sleeper is already there.

Aren: Good. See to it that there are no more surprises.

((OSS: Guys, I stcuk Behamoth in a holding cell. Any ideas on what to do with him now?))

*Flax is inspecting a C5 Y-Wing when Deac arrives, seeing his friend he goes to meet him.*

Flax: Welcome back Deac.

*Profers hand.*

Flax: How did it go?

*Deac shakes Flax's hand*

Deac: I'll need some time off after the battle. I have to bury my brother. But now I see you've given me a command. What's our objective?

Flax: We need someone to go the the Temple. If we don't deal with Reletha's Jedi they'll do carnage with our assault troops. I don't know how many of them are actually dark siders so if you can talk any round its worth a try.

Their leader is apparently my brother in law, Jammes Windrider. He's very strong in the Force and he uses a sabre staff. I'll join you as soon as the fighter combat dies down, if you can, try to leave Jammes to me, I always used to beat him in practice.

((I was thinking black with red piping for the "bad" Jedi.))

I'm sorry about your brother, Deac. The no alchohol edict doesn't come into force for another eight hours, you know. We should have a drink.

((Deac: Well? Reletha? What is she doing? :D You're leaving Cracken and I stuck, and me with Scar's characters ;)

BD: Leave him there for the time being. Say he has an injury that's keeping him comatose or whatever even though Flax now knows he's not Tarsisian.

Will post once Deac does :D))

Imperial Palace

Aide: My lady, Lord Cracken himself has landed?

*Reletha is visibly shocked*

Reletha: They're gone. The cult has vanished, and half the population of the planet is in uprising now that the invasion has begun. I'm ruined. It's over.
I'll deal with him.

*Reletha activates her double ended lightsaber and heads for the entrance*

((First I'm waiting on Scar, now I'm waiting on Deac. I'm never going to get to Coruscant!:mad: ))

[Sorry...thought we were already on route]

Deac: After the battle. After Reletha's gone. Then, we'll have that drink in the Imperial Palace. Now, I believe I've got these guys to lead.

Coruscant Space

*Admiral Tojo surveyed the battlefield in space, his eyes looking over the holovid projections of fleet strength and losses. His second in command approaches*

Sir, should we order the Fade to de-cloack and begin engaging?

Tojo: No, keep them in reserve. The Clone's fleet would be cought much unaware of such a surprise, and Reletha's fleet should they arrive. Also, alert me as soon as the Rebels jump in. Send orders down through that the Rebels are not to be shot at at all.

Aye sir.

*The commander walked off, and barked the order to the communications officer, who speard the word like wildfire through the fleet. A Golan Defense platform exploded off of the port bow, rattleing the mighty war ship slightly.*

[b]Coruscant Surface[/i]

*Cracken, Alysara, Irvine and Starr encountered little resistence making thier way to the Imperial Palace. Selveral people waved to the 4 "Liberators", even began to help clear the path for them. Convenient.

Soon, the Palace was before them. Cracken lenched his fists.

It is time to end this Reletha, you will not survive this day.....

*At the edge of the system the Alliance Fleet drops out of hyperspace and deploys its fighters. Then the Fleet makes a micro jump and re-enters realspace of Coruscant.*

Ackbar: The battle has been joined!

We are under attack by Imperial Star Destroyers! Begin evasaive manuvers, launch the X-Wings fighters.

*All reserve squadrons are deployed as the Fleet cresent moon formation splits in half. Half attack the Golon Defence platforms and the shield which was now beggining to gcome back on line while the other half formed a screen against what remained remained of the seperatist fleet.*

Surface

*As Cracken approaches the Palace four men and two women come into view, all of them wear a black varient of the Jedi robes and black cloaks. As they move nearer they cast off their cloaks. Five of them activate lightsabres, the sixth withdraws a sabre staff and activates it.*

Jammes: You will go no further, Sith Lord.

The Skies Above Coruscant

*A Bulk Transport hovers over a tall building close to the palace*

Pilot: Sorry commander...this is as close as I can get!

Deac: Don't worry about it. Get yourself back in the air.

*He calls back to the company*

OK MARINES! SECURE THIS BUILDING AND BEGIN MAKING YOUR WAY DOWN TOWARD IMPERIAL PLAZA!

*The twenty Jedi with Deac and first onto the ground, forming a protective ring around the other soldiers as they decend.*

*Overhead Blue leader breaks the sound barrier and banks to lose the trio of Intercepters on his tail. The X-Wing decends into the lower levels then somehow manages to loop back around without being noticed and a torpedo soon deals with the TIE Flight.*

Flax: I've still got it! *Activates comm.* Alright Blue Group, we have bombers coming in from the west, three flight stay here, everyone else, follow my lead.

*Eight X-Wings peal off and head west toward the bombers.*

Coruscant Skies

*Makon Jil pilots his X-Wing toward an oncoming group of TIE Fighters*

Makon: 5,6 Form with me. The rest of you break off and try to outflank them.

*Several light fighters appear in formation*

Makon: Here comes the resistance!

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

Coruscant, Former NRI Building

*Deac and the Marines bust into the main concourse, and the battle begins*

Stormtrooper: JEDI! Fall back!

Entrance to the Imperial Palace

Cracken: Honestly, no manners in young people these days....

*Cracken focused, bringing his new sleeper powers to bear, and raises his hand. A blast of white energy left his hands, slamming into his foes. He ignighted his Lightfoil, and this party did the same, in case they actually lived.*

Coruscant Space: SSD Executor

Sensor's officer: Sir, the Rebel fleet has arrived!

Tojo: very well, transmit them our IFF codes at once, and ask in kind. Have the bombers reached the shield generators for the planetary shield?

No sir, they are closing, ETA is 10 minutes.

Tojo: The shield will be up in less, Tell them to move faster!

*A flight of K-Wing bombers tear through the atmosphere, causing targeted devestation with cluster munitions, heading for the primary shield relay they drop heavy proton bombs, destroying the connectors without damaging the generators themselves.*

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

Palace entrance

*Three of the Jedi are dead, two are down and out of the battle, the sixth rises, unharmed.*

DA-DUM

DUM DA-DA-DUM DUM

DA-DUM-DUM

DA-DUM DA-DUM

DUM DA-DAA!

Jammes: Young? We are of an age, Lord Palpatine.

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

NRI Headquarters

Marine: SIR! Dark Troopers!

*Four Dark Troopers berst into the hallway, assault cannons thumping.*

Palace Entrance

*Cracken looked at the young Jedi with amusement. He nodded, and motioned his party to continue forward.

Then he dissapeared. White whisps formed and dissapaited where he once was.


And a small 'Bamph' noise came from behind the Jedi, as Cracken appeared midair, and swung his leg out to kick the Jedi in the gut, sending him flying into a wall.*

Cracken: Run! Find Reletha!

*Alysara nodded, and she darted in the building, enchanced by the Force.*

Dark Side of Coruscant
*A squadron of TIE Vultures crossed the terminator line, with Seperatist fighters in close pursuit. They dodged and weaved through the compicated city scape, Laser fire streaked across the city blocks, scorching skyscrapers and resturants alike as the Seperatists tried to shoot down the TIE Vultures.

Suddenly, they saw thier target. The inner shield generator. Thier communicators buzzed.*

((OOS: Assuming Coruscants shield system has redunencies.....))

Fleet Command: Destroy the relays to the inner shield Generator. do not harm the generator itself.

Sigma One: Roger command. You heard him boys, light up the relays.

*They selected the three targetting relays around the generator. suddenly, the AA batteries opened up on the approaching force, wiping out 3 TIE Vultures.*

Sigma One: Full front on shields, evasive, hit those relays and let's get the hell outta here!

*The TIE's climbed, and then dived, releaseing bombs on thier targets. direct hits, each relay was destroyed in turn.

2 more TIE's went down because of heavy AA fire, as the TIE's raced back to the terminator line, dodging AA and fighter fire the entire way.....*

((Deac: Could you do me a favor and PM me what Scar told you he had planned for Stormbaltz, Malice, etc? I have a rough idea but I want to make sure of it :D))

Coruscant, Palace Entrance

*Starr and Irvine ignite their sabers. Starr runs after Alysara, past Jammes and Cracken into the palace. Irvine hesitates, staring at his father*

Coruscant Space, Lucifer

*F. Irvine stands in front of the main viewport of the ship's bridge, staring in the direction of the planet's surface, watching the distant explosions.

His eyes begin flickering. Yellow, then black*

F. Irvine: Enough of this. Get me a shuttle.

----------

Coruscant Underlevels

*Five Blades, a vampire, a gargoyle, an elf, and a humanoid with fire for hair following a dark elf, run across what might have once been the top of a factory structure, several millennia ago. Finally they reach a wall*

Blade: *on Nereli's communicator* Forty-five degrees southeast, seventeen feet down.

*Nereli runs his fingers along the wall, then the floor*

Shane: I suppose they can't just plot us a teleporter-path through?

Blade: *on comm* Sorry. We're not equipped to do that in enough time to---

Shane: We know. Thank you for informing us again.

Nereli: Slythe?

*The elf with the wild hair grins*

Slythe: Yes?

Nereli: We need a path. Create one.

SSD Lucifer, Bridge

*As F.Irvine's shuttle departs, Stormbaltz recieves a message*

Comm: Sir! We're recieving a message from SSD Executor. They tell us that Irvine Cracken has been on the past surface for some time now.

Stormbaltz: Impossible!

Comm: Sir! We had an imposter! Lord Cracken is in charge of the Empire now!

Stormbaltz: So...the fool was a traitor after all. *He smiles*. Transmit our IFF Codes to the Executor and begin targeting Rebel ships.

Comm: Sir! The rebels are on our side!

Stormbaltz: I see a lot's happened while we've been asleep. Tell the Executor to give us some targeting information then.

NRI Headquarters

Deac: Take cover!

*Deac thinks back to when he used to fight these things back on Tatooine. He then throws his lightsaber at a light fixture, causing sparks to rain down on the darktrooper.*

Deac: Fire now!

*He pops up and fires while the sparks confuse the Darktrooper's thermal imaging*

*The Independance II recieves the request for IFF codes.*

Tech: Admiral, we've recieved a request for our IFF codes from the loyalist Imperials.

Admiral Thran: Transmit the codes.

Surface

*Blue Squadron continue to destroy seperatist fighters. Flax pulls a barral role to evade another blast of laser fire, just before blue two politely vapes the offending TIE.*

Blue Two: You're clear, One.

Flax: Thanks, Two. I owe you a cold one.

Control: Blue Squad, your sector is clean, return to base for reload and re-assignment.

Flax: Copy that. Blue Two, you have the command, I have something to take care of.

Two: Affirmative, good luck, Blue Leader.

Comm Officer: Recieved Rebel IFF codes. Retransmitting to the rest of the fleet.... Sir, we're getting a message from the Lucifer.... They want to re-join the Empire!

*Tojo mussed*

Tojo: I cannot grant that request, that would be up to the Emperor, and he is not here. Tell them to power down thier shields, and surrendur, we shall deal with them after the battle.

*Jammes deactivates his sabre staff and throws it aside, he then withdraws an elegant, longhandled lightsabre and activates it.*

Jammes: If you can get past me then I will not follow you, first you must get past me.
