Farran: Fine then. Here's your reason: I'm going to stand up now and walk away. If you kill me, you get Sejiko, who will kill you and take his chances with the Blades. If you try to stop me without killing me, I'll transform, kill you, and take my chances with the Blades. If you're thinking of knocking me unconscious, forget it; I will transform anyway. If you let me go unmolested, I'll get to safety, you can contact me at my office, and I'll shovel you whatever dirt you want on the Blades, or the Shadows, or anything else you care to ask me. It's time for you to decide.

*Farran stands up*

*Kioet watches in anticipation*

Kioet to Nimalf over commlink: If anything bad happens to Farran, fire like there's no tomorrow.

Valkyrie: I doubt that you could kill us. However since you are willing to give us information about the blades and others we will let your go.

As soon as you reach your office write down everything you know about the Blades, Shadows, and the Gallyava. Leave it on your computer and we will get the information. Now if you fail to do this we will kill you. Also, I would recommend you don't transform again. Otherwise you are free to go. We will be watching you.

*The Valkyire sheaths her sword. The other one picks up Sejiko's blade. They then return to Hirst.*

Hirst: Here is a little gift, the blade of the man your hunting.

*with a nod, a valkyrie slides the blade across teh ground. It stops just at the feet of the blade*

WH Irvine: "So you expect us to just hitch a ride over?"

Woman: "I'm sure you can, you are who you are, you know..."

*Woman Vanishes... And for some unexpected reason so does the image in the Elder WH Irvine...*

Elder Irvine: "Okay, lets get going..."

WH Irvine: "What ever you keep following me remember..."

*Deac gets up...but finds no-one familiar. Valkeries debate with Farran, members of the Blades have been and gone, as have two of the Aeges. Rwos is nowhere to be found. Deac looks around and sees what his life has got him: Isolation.

He picks through the rubble of the cantina and finds a bottle of spirits intact. He opens the bottle and pours a glass.*

To the Cantina....may she rest in peace.

((So the body disintegrated, kill any of the Flax' and then evaportate. He's still dead, there is no way, in Star Wars, to bring someone body back to life.))

*The IndependanceII drops out of Hyperspace.*

<SUPER LIGHT BURST SIGNAL>

<Encryption Alpha 1>

<Decoding>

<IndependanceII encountered unknown forces, force strong, very hostile, see attached data packet. Destroy on site. No survivors.>

<Reading Data>

..................

*War Room, Fleet Head Quarters.*

Ackbar: This is most disturbing. We have already increased border security. Master Skywalker has volentiered to deploy some of the Jedi .They will attempt to find these millitant Force users. This data will be fowarded to Lord Cracken, the Asgard also will be sent a copy.

Now the Republic is at War.

*Tattooine*

Flax: Tell me, if this isn't your universe how do you know so much about it, or maybe you don't.

((Battledog: Just want to make sure on some things. 1: When you say Asgard, do you mean the Aesir (if so then how do you plan on sending them a copy when you don't how to contact them. Granted The Valkyries will intercept it. Best way would be to just leave a message on a computer addressed to Odin).

2: Is Flax talking to the blades? (I assume so just want to make sure)

3: Remember for the Republic to be official at war, the Chief of State must approve it.. ))

In The WildHuntsman

*Vidar stands in the threshold of his quaters. He had just gotten out of a meeting with Tyr, and Vingthor. Vidar steps inside his quaters and the doors slides shut, cutting out all of the outside noise. Only the powerful hum of the engines were able to penetrate the silience.

Vidar sat down staring out into hyperspace. After a couple of minutes he finally was able to relax. As he starred out of the window Vidar's mind begins to wander, eventually it goes back to when he was appointed to the Council.

It was such a long time ago, but still he remembered it like it happened yesterday. His father and mother took him to the Norns for the first time. There each gave out a piece of his fate: Early Begun. Further spun. One day done. With Joy once more won. It was fortunate that the Norns mother was there and explained that Vidar would survive and rule in Odin's place.

A party ensued after that revelation, He quickly slipped away and walked back to his home. Even at that young age Vidar preferred solitude and quiet. To this day he preferrs to be by himself, unlike his brother Tyr who loved to be around others, especially warriors.

Vidar looks at a clock, within an hour they would arrive. Once there he will transfer to his personal ship, the Svalin. The Svalin was a unique ship. Designed to his personality, most of the ship was automated and required a very small crew. To some it seemed eerie to be in the ship since it was so quite, but for Vidar it was peaceful.

Like the others he looked forward to the battle. The reason varied amoung the Aesir. Some eager to show their worth, others to demostrate their bravery. For Vidar it was the chance to reduce the threat of the Jotuns even if it was only for a short period of time. He also looked forward to seeing some of the new weapons that Tyr and his scientist had developed.

Stretching Vidar goes to his desk. Even with a battle looming, he couldn't ignore his other duties to the Council and to his people. He picks up the first report. It was a review of the Jedi. Recenlty the question has come up. Does the New Order of Jedi Knights deserve access to the records (that were either supposedly lost with time or destroyed by the Empire)...*

Chi: "Alright, lets get back to HQ. And trandmit to every ship to get back too..."

*The communitcations officer sends out a verious amounts of encoded messages.*

*The ship then turns and gets into hyperspace...*

Chi: *To RH Irvine* "We're going to have a talk. Your going to have to tell me about your young partner that just died."

RH Irvine: "Sir, are you sure, the shields never droped..."

Chi: "Trust me, I know he did. Believe me on this one..."

*The two walk into a secure room...*

Guard: "You!" *to Jokemaster* "You have been assigned to your own quarters. We'll lead you there."

*The set of guards escort Jokemaster to his quarters*

((BD, you keep forgetting about Leia ;) also haven't you made the NR quite...militiant?

By the way, remember how Deac made little ittby bitty rule about no infighting? :p

I'll do my best to get familiar characters back with Deac ;) but doesn't Deac recognize Flax?

Final note: "Ulna Shardes" is now the name of the Separatist's capital planet. Since it's never been named before. Someone correct me if I already named something that, since I can't remember ^^;; ))


Tattooine

*Farran reaches Kioet's shuttle*

Farran: *to the pilot* Take us to location zero. Once we're away from those Blades, and back to Ulna Shardes, then I'll be on a level playing field with...whoever those spies are. And Kioet...I think I have some things to explain to you.

*drops his hand to his side and realizes* Damn. They took my sword. I liked that one, too.

----------

*The Blade reaches down and picks up Farran's sword. He places a circular device around the handle and feels the blade*

Blade: Thank you for your assistance. We will leave now.

*The Blade ignores Flax' comment as he turns and walks away*

----------

Gallyava ship

*Rwos, having managed to cross between the two docked ships, accesses the Gallyava mainframe database*

Weird. This ship just...crashed, for no apparent, detectable reason. It wasn't even in this dimension when it happened...

*Rwos' senses suddenly scream for him to duck. What appears to be a crossbow bolt smashes into the wall next to him as he dodges. The bolt embeds itself in the wall and continues to burn bright green.

Rwos ignites his lightsword*

----------

CSII, entrance to core

*Starr rushes at the Vanguard with the lightsaber, but uses the Force to create the illusion that he is attacking the Vanguard with the rod. Just before he reaches the saber-weilding Vanguard, however, the being's head jerks up and he brings the lightsaber to bear - too clumsily. Starr strikes it out of his hand*

Starr: Told you people you were no Jedi!

He obviously can't handle a lightsaber. What is he doing with it anyway?

*Starr's senses tingle, and he ducks a sudden stream of rocket darts. He looks in the direction of the other Vanguard, and sees his hand raised*

Gotta separate them. Then I can take them out one by one.

*Starr vaults off the catwalk, into the darkness below. The Vanguard ignite rocketpacks and follow*

well, It's better than the cell
*walks around the room, getting used to the layout*
I gotta get to Corusant soon, or the admiral's gonna throw a fit
[/subtle forshadowing]

Hirst: You welcome.

*Suddenly a cloud of dust is kicked up, masking the Valkyries. When it settled they were no longer there.

With a slight signal from Hirst, The pilot moves the ship in such a way as to kick up the cloud of dust. The Valkyries used this cover to board the ship*

*Kioet watches Farran reach for his sword, which isn't there, and pretends not to notice*

Kioet: Explain away. This suit's starting to grow on me, but it could use some adjustments.

*Deac is approached by a man in a black overcoat*

Man: Colonel Starkiller, a situation is brewing. NRI wants you back on Coruscant.

*Looks at DarkDeac's body*

Another clone? We had heard about one. Now if you'll excuse me...

*The man walks through a portal and is gone. Deac begins to search for a transport*

((OSS: Admiral,

1. Ok, ill stick it on a computer.

2. Yes

3. Well, yes, thats true. Technically, however, who says they've officially declared it yet.

Redwing, Scar has created a situation where the New Republic must consider that it is under attack by a highly millitant and trecherous group of force users. In this situation it is reasonable that they would conclude they were Sith.))

*Flax walks over to Deac, at the same time the three X-Wings land some distance away.*

Flax: You alright Colonel?

*Elder Irvine and the other Irvine get back to the hanger. They spot a nice ship, they decide to borrow it for a while...*

Elder Irvine: *to pilot* "Sorry kid..." *Hits pilot in the back of the neck, knocking him out..."

WH Irvine: *Yells from behind* "Yo! Troopers on the Inco.! We got to get out of here!"

*Engines fire up and the ship takes off, stormtroopers blasting. the pilot stands up and sees his ship flying away...*

Pilot: "What the??"

*meanwhile on the ship...*

WH Irvine: "That was pretty slick."

Elder Irvine: "Your telling me. It feels like a while sense I flew anything..."

WH Irvine: "Uh, maybe you should let me pilot... huh?" *feels something on belt.*

*WH Irvine pulls off an interesting rod off his belt. It seemed to look like a lightsaber, but the size and wieght seemed utteribly impossible.* 'Theres not even a switch on this thing... Must be light that scythe I had. Damnit! why did we leave that back on Ulna Shardes' ((:p))

*WH Irvine puts a little bit of force power into the thin handled lightsaber, and It ignites. And strangely the blade had a slight curve to it, and its length also seemed impossible...*

*WH Irvine smirks* "A Light-Katana now. Geez. Msut have been a present with our little vistitor..." *It extigishes... And WH Irvine goes and takes control.*

Elder Irvine: "So where do you think your taking us? Remember we have to agree on something together..."

WH Irvine: "Couresant... We're going to Couresant..."

Elder Irvine: "Well not like we aren't in an Imperial ship and all."

WH Irvine: "So what. We're not even registered as Imperials, Maybe Safer Irvine is, but not neither of us... Besides Identifing marks would have been left on the other body. Which we are going to kill"

Elder Irvine: "So why are we going to Couresant?"

WH Irvine: "Because, thats where the politions are..."

Elder Irvine: "Okay, My youger self went nuts..."

*the enter hyperspace*

((OOS: Whu? Ummm...if I'm not mistaken I don't think lightsabers can curve...:rolleyes: *shrugs*

BD: Yes, but was a war declared when Darth Maul showed up in TPM? Who exactly are they declaring war on? A stray ship that showed up and briefly attacked them, then disappeared, and a single 'pig headed' (;)) faux "Jedi" who got himself killed...the NR is in a state of war because of a single stray ship? Or am I misunderstanding? :confused:

Deac: I see someone's ripping off of T's style eh? ;)))


Pilot: About to enter hyper---

Farran: Wait! Turn the ship around. *pauses* We...have to get Ravan.

-----------

*Abroad the Gallyava ship, Rwos' attacker walks into his line of sight almost casually*

Man: So. This is a Blade.

Rwos: And you are?

Man: A Hunter. And today, you also are my prey.

((well I purposely ment it to be not possible. it wasnt a person from a psyical realm that created it you know... ^_^))

((Thanks BD.

Well since the Republic is at war with the Seperatist. Then perhaps the Republic assumed that the militant force users, and that ship were part of a Seperatist attack. If so, then there wouldn't need to be a declaration of War since it already exist and it would also explains some of the Republics actions))

Deac: Flax, I'm going to Coruscant. I need you to come with me.

*Orthos, who has landed, runs over*

Orthos! We're going to Coruscant, now. Let's move!

Orthos: But I just got here!

*Follows Deac*

*The creature transforms to a more lesser demonic creature. Now more man like, more vampireic rather. Darkdeac enteres the spectural realm of tatoonie...*

Vampiric creature: *to darkdeac* "Spectar told me he had given quilities that were my brothers. All that means that you like me might need the life energy to help regeneration and our dark "gifts" to as well regnerate. This universe is known to me, do you of a place where there is alot of mortal blood, and victims can easily be feasted upon?" ((*cough*Couresant*cough*))

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

*Chi and RH Irvine get into a secure room. they both sit down at a table.*

Chi: "Okay, tell me, what happened..."

RH Irvine: "Exactly like you siad, he's me. even gots the same irrogence." *smiles* "...still, he's quite powerful. unfortunately i couldnt get much information on him. An assassin came forth and created a mortal wound. Then a Imperial Ship came along and picked up him, my clone. How interesting, that brief ttime i saw the assassin, he had a New Republic symbol on him... You think?"

Chi: "I don't know... honestly. It would explain how Kur could be killed so easily, he is quite the Jedi. But still, it was sudden..."

RH Irvine: "Chi? I still want to know how did you know of Kur's death, when the shields were up?"

Chi: "You wouldn't believe me if I told you..."

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

Elder Irvine: "Well, might as well meditate, to pass the time..."

*Elder Irvine goes off into the passenger section.*

WH Irvine: *now alone, in the cockpit* 'How odd, this "katana" seems to only ignite when I want it to, not like those typical sabers. yeah there is that Scythe that I had, but the curve on the blade on this one, if much different, like the scythe, this beam is more flat then rounded... interesting....' "Why did that person want to give this?"

((Okay @ Scar

By the way if the Irvines have their bodies back, doesn't the vampire/demon thingy need to possess some other dead body?

Well since the Republic is at war with the Seperatist. Then perhaps the Republic assumed that the militant force users, and that ship were part of a Seperatist attack. If so, then there wouldn't need to be a declaration of War since it already exist and it would also explains some of the Republics actions

That would make sense, yes...but I still don't understand if BD meant that or not?))



*Farran's shuttle lands near Ravan's still body. Farran is a little surprised at the complete lack of people surrounding the carnage*

Everyone's gone. Everyone alive, anyway...except Ravan...I think...

((red: well techincally no. seeing is that this vampire has been gone for quite some time (dead to the universe).

How ever spectar gave darkdeac and this vampire to ability to re-manifest themselves. Only if they managed to obtain some life energy from a being.

Darkdeac however may or may not be needing this stipulation as much, for him being an avatar and all.

As for the vampire, least time I knew he had a little snack on Sejiko, thus causing the revert back to Farran. And seeing is that Sejiko/Farran are apart of the blade, which to my assumption, have life energies how ever simular to humans, but more powerful in nature. (so if the Vampire didnt finish Sejiko off, the vampire could have taken enough energy to re-manifest.)

And sort of on the subject, you could guess in order for the manifestation to continue, they'd keep going for blood, so vampire and/or darkdeac (if needed) could keep on the vampiric trait of feeding on blood to survive))

((OSS: Redwing, the NR has just suffered Blitz krieg (wrong spelling) from Cracken and they are still at war with the Seperatists. Also, the OR's pacifism was what did it in.))

Flax: Sure Deac, there's a base at Mos Espa, we can pick up an extra X-Wing there and be on our way.

*Hal runs up to the group.*

Flax: Get the fighters ready Hal.

*Hal gives him a dirty look shugs and runs back to his ship.*

*DarkDeac looks at the body*

DarkDeac: Nooo! This body is flawed! I cannot stay here forever! Damn you! You tricked me!

*DarkDeac punches at the Spectre*
---------------------------------

*The group run to a hangar and board various ships. They lift off and hyper for Coruscant...*

((as much as Spectar, the specture, isnt there in that realm anymore, i'll just ignore the punch.))

*Spectar sits confertibly in a new plane of exsistence. he senses Darkdeac's anger...*

Spectar: <Of course everuthing has its flaws, you made the mistake by entering that body. How ever it has its uses... some of your avatar energy will allow you to re-manifest in the materal realm. just you can't do it too often. You must go abouts that bodies natural Vampiric needs for that body's full effectiveness to be enabled...>

*spectar lays back, felling better then he'd ever felt before.*

Spectar: "I could have invited more of my kind. But that hole sealed up... too bad. They were the ones who listened to me... But I was the one who didn't want to exsist in darkness anymore... I kinda pity them now..."

((Scar:

A) Sejiko reverted to Farran because he was knocked unconscious.

B) The vampire drained Farran of blood. Farran is (almost) completely normal. At least, he has normal life energy. [Not that I care about your vampire remanifesting, just saying]

C) Ulna Shardes is my own made-up name for the Separatist's unnamed semi-secret capital planet. It's somewhere in the Corporate Sector.

D) I wouldn't alter the Galactic map unless I knew what I was doing. Hence why I never do it. Also, only mods can post attachments.

E) Is the Spectar supposed to be on the Aege's plane? Clarify.

F) Finally and most importantly (at the moment, cuz I need to know for my next post ;)): Is Ravan supposed to be still alive?))

((A) ok.
B) normal vampires cant come back to life. but of course these are tweaked vamps that can (that was the whole idea.)
C) ok.
D) alrighty. ok. Thats BS cus I brought the attachment from the store. I SHOULD be able to use it if i cant, i'd like my points refunded
E) No, jsut a plane higher the the spectural plane but lower the aeges. Spectar didnt get to the one he wanted but still took the opertunity to grain entry to a higher plane, w/o doing what he really intended. So thus saying, he didnt get exactly what he wanted, but to him 'its close enough, and screw the rest. I dont care about em anymore.'
F) For the time being, yes. I still have to decide or not if he dies...))

((can someone plz explain the planes thing to me))

*Kioet walks towards the still body, looks closer at it, then backs away and looks at Farran*

Kioet to Farran: You know him?

((OSS: Scar, you can't alta the map, unless you're going to reveal part of the unknown regions, we carved the rest up. If you started taking planets then you'd have a big can of woop-ass dumped on you instantly. Plus, you said they were from the unknown regions and had only just emerged.))

*Ravan grits his teeth, still in great pain... barely managing to stay consious*

((@Rogue15: Think of the planes are similar to heaven and hell, except there are more of them))

Wild Huntsman

*Tyr walked the corridors, he was restless. He didn't like the waiting. He finally entered a lounge filled with Einherjar. As he entered they raised their glasses to him. Tyr smiled at the acknowledgement.

Ordering a glass of mead, he sits down in the corner listening to the warriors talk. Scanning the room, besides telling tales other einherjar were playing strategy games, some more just relaxing.

Sipping the mead, Tyr thought to the battle, unsure if he would command a capital ship, or fly a fighter. He was leaning towards flying a fighter, but it really didn't matter.

His boldness in battle, and unshakeable courage would mean he would be placed in the most dangerous area. Tyr was happy about that. He was ever willing to demonstrate his bravery, and often inspired others because of that.

As Tyr sat in the lounge, in the back of his mind he knew that some of those who sat here today wouldn't survive the battle*

((Not quite heaven and hell, at least not all of them. However I get the idea some of the lower planes are like hell and some of the higher like heaven. I'm just saying don't think of it too Biblically.

Scar: Complain in the Help and Feedback center - it's possible there's a glitch in the system

:rolleyes: @ Scar's rabid post deletion))


*Farran picks Ravan up, checking his pulse* He's alive. We need to get him to a good medical facility. *to Kioet* He's a Councilman. One of the better of them. He has his share of secrets...but then again, so do I.

((Red, there is a way to buy attachments, check the store recently? ;) Buy An Attachment

Kioet: Better check him for tracking devices, he may be alive for a reason.

[Advancing Time a bit here...]

*Deac and Co arrive at Coruscant. Deac is greeted by black coated NRI officers, who take him to NRI centre. There he is meeted by the same man he met on Tatooine. The major feature about him is that he has one cybernetic eye*

Beler: Hello, Colonel. I remember hearing some of your exploits on the news. My name is Colonel Beler Jil.

*Deac shakes his hand*

Colonel, we have wanted you for some time. Ever since you turned out to make first contact between the New Republic and an Extra-Dimensional being, your friend, Termand Rwos.
Then it seems you take one of the Aeges' avatars, the Starkiller, correct?
*Deac nods*
Then you travel to a second alternate universe, and then leave Syrnl Darkstar there. Not so sure about that descision myself. Now, you seem to be dealing with Avatars and Aeges again. We at NRI's Extra dimensional branch would like to recruit you. You will do what you always have done, except this time you'll get paid.
Are you in, Starkiller?

*Deac thinks*

*The Irvines reach a New Republican militiary barricade.*

WH Irvine: *over comm* "Hailing republican ships, we are refugees, myself and my father."

*in background* Elder Irvine: *not really heard by republican ships* "I'm not your father!"

WH Irvine: *comm link muted* "Quiet! we have to get through this barrier before we get to couresant!" *re-opens comm*

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

*Ravan gets attached to emergancy medical equpiment, en route to a better medical facility...*

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

*The vampiric creature still in a more human like form, finishes off 'feeding' off his latest victum on couresant...*

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

*The Bartelby & Loki reaches planet Duriel in the unknown regions of the galaxy, one of four planets nearby habitied by the Miliaristic Jedi*

*Guards remain outside Jokemaster's quarters all hours of their day*

((Hence why I said it was a glitch in the system, R15 :p

The NRI has an extradimensional branch? Bout time :D ;)

And well LOOKY HERE - it's none other than Beler Jil himself :D

Yes, yes, I'll post as Rwos as soon as I can bloody well finish figuring out the plotline for his opponent. ;)))



Farran: If you mean the spies, I'm sure they know where I'm going anyway.

*The ship exits hyperspace above Ulna Shardes*

NR Officer: Refugee transport, come to full stop and prepare for close proximity scan.

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

Flax: Deac, be cauful, this is NRI. Like my wife!

[I seem to like crossovers, Red. Now bring Rwos back!]

*Deac turns to Flax*

Deac: Well, I know a lot about what's out there...

I'm in.

*Beler smiles*

Beler: Excellent. Now, as for you Orthos, you are not-

*Deac cuts him off*

Deac: If I'm in, so's he. And Flax is high enough rank to know. Whatever you got to show me, show them.

Beler: Very well. Come with me, gentlemen.

*The party are shown a large round door*

Hal: I'm gonna go to er..... Headquarters. *leaves.*

Flax: *sigh* God I wish he'd stop chasing them and grow up.

*In an empty area of space, the Aesirian fleet dropped out of hyperspace. At minute later more ships drop out, amoung these ships was the Svalin, and medical ships.

In one of 0he Wild Huntsman's hanger bays. Vidar stands towards the back of the hanger. A shuttle carrying Idun had just left for a medical frigate. Heimdall enters the hanger with a spring in his step. Seeing Vidar, he goes and stands next to him.*

Vidar: Hello, where are you off to?

Heimdall: Like you I'm going over to my flag ship.

Vidar: I didn't see the Gullintani amoung the ships.

*As he says this the sleek and beautiful Svalin enters view*

Heimdall: It was one of the last to enter the area.

Vidar: I see, well I should probably get over to my ship now.

Heimdall: Same here, I'll see you after the battle.

*Heimdall and Vidar get into seperate fighters, and launch. Gaining altitude relative to the Huntsman Vidar finally sees the Gullintani, it was close to the Svalin. Heimdall joins Vidar and each make their way towards their own ships*

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

*Odin took his seat on the bridge of the Wild Huntsman. The plans had been laid. He had said his goodbyes to his sons and daughters and to the other members of the council. Tyr, and Freyr would lead the fighter squadrons of the Einherjar, Freya would lead the Valkyries fighter squadrons. Idun would be over looking the medical ships, and the rescueing of soldiers. Frigg would be running the medical bay on the Huntsman. The other council members each went to their own capital ships.*

__________________________________________________ __

*An hour later everything was set, the fleet was arranged in an "U" formation. In front of the U was a group of 30 destroyers. An emergency message arrives at Odin's monitor. It simple read: Jotun eta 20 minutes.*

Odin: 20 minutes until it begins. Launch the fighter squadrons, the destroyers may begin.

Captain: Aye sir.

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

*Tyr and Freyr, sat together in the pilot ready room. When a tone sounded signalling pilots to go to their fightes*

Tyr: Come, time to have some fun.

*Freyr says nothing just smiles. He and Tyr go the the Hanger with the other pilots. A short time later 41 squadrons had launched from the various Aesirian ships. A total of 492 fighters and bombers had left the capital ships*

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

*Blue arcs of energy begin to appear and play across their hulls. After a few minutes the beams beging to connect. A deadly and beautiful web is created ready to destroy and strand the Jotuns as their ships enter the area.*

*Ivan between meetings ventures into Irvine's quarters. He admires the weaponry left behind, meaning that he'd eventually come back some time soon. Ivan notices Irvine left the computer console on. he looks on there and sees a few letters, both sent and received, saved on its hard disc. He reads them...*

Ivan: "What the??"

((lol - okay :D))

*Rwos and the man face off. Rwos keeps his lightsword up and on guard. The man has his crossbow aimed at Rwos, but makes no move to fire it*

Rwos: Your prey?

Man: I was warned of you. I was told you were formidable opponents.

Rwos: You're no Shadow.

*The man looks past Rwos at the computer program running*

*Rwos' eyes narrow* You definitely aren't from my dimension. Yet I can sense some form of magic in you...

Man: You won't find any of those you are looking for here.

Rwos: What?

*The computer beeps, and a message appears on its screen*

LIFE SIGN SEARCH COMPLETED> TWO LIFE FORMS FOUND

Just me and this guy. So if there were any Gallyava left alive aboard, they're either dead or gone by now.

Rwos: Who---

*From behind Rwos voices shout. Several Shadows burst into the room, wielding large guns*

Man: *to the Shadows* I told you not to come.

*Rwos takes advantage of the momentray distraction to grab the disk sticking out of the computer and drop a small silver object. After an instant the object explodes, blinding everyone in a flash of light. Rwos teleports away*

Shadow: Stop him! Don't let him get to his ship!

*Another Shadow picks up a comm*

Shadow: Too late.

*Rwos' Blade fighter tears out of the blind spot above the Shadow's hangar created by the warpfield. Before the Shadows can fire his fighter warps away*

*A valkyrie slips into Ivan quaters undetected, and leaves a message. She leaves with out a trace*

Message Reads:

It's not nice or proper to read other people's mail. Shame on you. You don't seem to have any honor in you. To bad.

Ivan: "Man what is this kid getting into. geez. Must be of some cult or something. would have figured..."

*Ivan gets to his quarters and notices a letter.*

Ivan: "Interesting..." *looks around room, nothing is disturbed* 'wait a minute, all those letters never had a 'to:' part filled out... I wonder...'

*he writes a letter and save it on to his computer console:

Okay then, I'd like to know exactly whom mailed me this letter i recieve and what my nephew is doing with you people. I have a right to know whats going on with my family thats serious...*

*The door opens. A vast laboratory is inside. People work at workstations, hurriedly moving around. Several strange devices surround a circular portal device in the centre. A large map is visible above it*

Beler: Laws of multiversal physics don't give us a lot of room to manuever. There are fewer planes accessable than we previously thought...for instance, the planes where only a few molecules are different are too similar for us to travel to, but there's no real reason we'd want to. This way please...

NR Officer: "Refugee transport, come to full stop and prepare for close proximity scan."

WH Irvine: "Alrighty then..."

*WH Irvine cuts the engines, and uses thrusters in the front to stop the shuttle.*

*The Jotuns arrived right on time. They had a very large force, around 150 ships. For the most part they were the size of Frigates, only a few destroyers. However, they did have a large and formidable commandship. Odin was surprised he expected a larger force.

Blue lines leaped out from the web hitting the Jotuns ships. Destroying weapon emplacement and engines. The Jotuns for the most part were unable to avoid the web. Some of their ships that were able to slow quickly enough managed to escape the trap. They regrouped around the commandship which and dropped out of hyperspace further back.

Space was then filled with weapons fire, and explosions. The crippled jotun ships inside the trap tried futily to defend themselves. With what little thrust they had the Jotuns grouped themsleves together. This was a mistake, since as one Jotun ship exploded it would damage or destroy nearby ships. THis made this portion of the battle easy.

The Aesirian destoryers disengaged their weapons as the last crippled Jotun ship was destroyed. Then the Aesirian ships formed up on the Wild Huntsman and began to approach the remaining Jotuns ships. This battle would be over shortly.

Then from the Jotun command ship, hordes of fighters spewed forth. Odin smiled, so that is the rest of the force that he was expecting. Odin sat directing the overall battle as the captain sent the Wild Hunstman to engage the commandship. THe Svalin and Gullintani followed. Entering weapons range the ships lets loose devastation broadsides.

Meanwhile, the Aesirian Fighters lead by Tyr, Freyr and Freya engage the Jotun fighters. The weaved between the capital ship. Flying dangerously close the the warships hulls.

The battle raged on for a couple of hours. Finally the last Jotun Ship was destroyed.

Odin sat back in his chair.*

*A valkyrie sends Ivan another message, this time from Raven's room. Once again entering and leaving undetected*

Message:

No, you don't need to know, nor are we going to tell you. Now here is a question you should think about. Do you deserve to live?

*Ivan gets his reply, read it and sends another* 'interesting this one came from ravan's room...'

*Well techincally I should have been dead seening is that I had some Jedi here on the capital planet threatening my life for my 'war crimes'. I admitted to them and was prepared, but unfortunately he suddenly had something better to do then kill an old General turned political Buerucrat... that was a few days ago. So do I desurve to live either from the information I read today? I don't know... Do I desurve to live for my crimes agenst innocents, most likely. But Hell, It looked like I was swinging that lightsaber that I had no skill to use, like a soldier that was trying to get used to wielding such weapons again. But It took enough energy to keep the damned thing straight. So eitehr by you, a Jedi or even tiem itself, I will die either way...*

Flax: Who has control over this prodject, Colonel. *Flax stresses his rank.*
