Not many places in infantry though. Even if a draft begins for a "war" military is kinda overstocked. So many people started signing up because they think of it as "free money". I mean you get all kinds of benefits and stuff.

What people don't realize is once you sign up you can't just get tired and give up. You'll sweat and you'll bleed. Hell you may even die. That's the life and if you can't take it don't sign up to begin with. I mean seriously. All these p***y men get in a firefight and start pissing themselves. It makes me sick. -_-

GOAL! ^_^

"Well you’ll need a damn good alias. Unloading a Togorian, an Iridonian, and an Echani. Must be planning on fighting an army,” Cat interjects.

Ash nods in agreement. “Or a group of well-trained Jedi assassins. It is in our best interest that the remainder of us split-up as well. So as not to draw... unwanted attention.”

“Mercenaries,” Raid says simply, entering the conversation again. “Kip and Cat could both pass... with the right codes for your ship, that is. And I’m sure Cat can acquire the needed codes, yes?”

Cat taps her blade on her chin again, thinking through Raid’s plan. “I think that’ll work out quite nicely. Local law enforcement will stay pretty much out of our way and we wouldn’t draw any attention in the undercity. If Kip can manage to act the part that is,” Cat smiles.

Ash turns his attention to Raid. “And I assume you have some magnificent plan to get us onto the surface?” he asks, a hint of doubt in his voice.

“Of course I do,” Raid winks. “There’s a security checkpoint station before we get to the planet. You and I will merely ‘escape’, hijack a security transport, and proceed to the planet as fugitives.”

Work

Mercenaries

Then I think its time for a belly dancing party!  XD

You're just special... 

Okay, so we’ve all seen the Transformers movie right? Of course we have. Well, the Vertoes are going to sound exactly like the Transformers and Decepticons when they speak English (depending on their personality and such).

Blinding light flashes across the ship’s bow, quickly followed by an ear piercing shriek. The ship lurches forward suddenly before coming to an abrupt stop, the roof and floor bending inward beneath unknown pressure. The sound of screeching metal reverberates throughout the ship as whatever is holding the ship stationary tightens its grip.

A haunting red light shines through the ship’s front windows, completely blocking anything else from sight. The light moves side to side, scanning the entire ship before it vanishes for a fraction of a second, almost instantly reappearing. The action –much like the blinking of an eye –is followed by a deep rumbling and an unintelligible sound.

The red light moves away from the ship, revealing the unimaginable. The massive head of an enormous robotic creature, its four glowing red eyes focused on the tiny prize in its hand.

…Outside the Jedi Temple…

Mikaela nods, wiping her tears away and turns to head back into the Temple. She doubted anything remained of the Jedi escape pods with the Temple in such shambles but they had to try. Orcor glances up at Keir as the soldier pulls the amulet over his head, the amulet’s shard dangling just above his heart.

“The amulet… is the key… lose it and Ke’siväkan … will never be reborn… And the fate of the galaxy… shall be sealed…”

Orcor leans back against a slate of rock, watching the group move back towards the Temple. They were all so unaware. Unaware how their actions would influence everything; how they could determine the fate of the galaxy…

The last of the little group of survivors disappear into the Temple. Orcor sits up. He had to ensure that they escaped. And he would. He wasn’t dead yet. Orcor places both his hands over his heart and begins a slow chant in Khenan, “Mi’lady, grant me strength. Help me stand fast against this darkness and in death shall I bring you victory.”

The ground shakes beneath Orcor as a group of large robotic creatures jump down from the Temple roof. Vél'inan. The largest of the group –obviously the leader –hisses when he sees Orcor.

“Óv’jutići!” he shrieks, “where is it, caşha?! Give it to us!”

...Above Coruscant…

Above Coruscant the planet size capital ship Ví S’ęsolh Nä’csitri still holds its position, beaming down soldiers to search the planet for survivors. Their radars still show it is on the planet. If they couldn’t destroy the Ke’siväkan then they would destroy the very object which ensured she would return to rescue the Sa'vunin once more.

Suddenly a hyperspace rupture occurs near Ví S’ęsolh Nä’csitri. A planet sized warship slowly emerges from the warped hyperspace hole, the larger and far more advanced Sa’vunin warship overshadowing the scrawny Vel’inan capital ship. Olen’fël.

Short phrases or simple words mixed with English will be written in the original Khenan language which will have translations here. Longer phrases will be written in English and italicized as above. Unless of course you are not supposed to understand their meaning in which case the phrase will be written completely in Khenan with no translation or simply left out and replaced by something like “speaks Khenan, etc., etc.,etc.”.

Vocabulary Lesson:
Ke’siväkan:  one who commands soldiers (lit.); Supreme Commander – special combination word.
     Ke is used as an imperative prefix; used to mark something as a command or order. When combined with a noun, ke comes to mean “commander” or “one who commands”. Siväkan is the plural form iof “soldier”. Combine ke with siväkan and you end up getting “one who commands soldiers” or “commander of soldiers”. When used as a proper noun it always means the Supreme Commander.

Ví S’ęsolh Nä’csitrin: By the Blood of My Enemies.
     The Khenan word for “the” is “te”. However, it is an implied article and thus usually left out of sentences all together. It is occasionally used for emphasis.
Ví: by
Sy: of – prefix.
Ęsolh: life (lit.); blood
Csitrin: enemies (plural)
Nä: my

Olen’fël: Grave Digger
     Olen: corpse; death; grave
Fël: digs, one who (lit.); digger

Óv’jutići: The Guardian (lit.)
     Óv: to protect against
Jutići: darkness

Caşha: (rare, archaic) flesh, one who is made of (lit.); (common, insult) fleshling

Oh no you didn't.

Hells yeah! Calo Nord was a wuss.

Darkside FTW! 

I'll give you that one... 

Ooh, I like that. 

That's not even a competition. Although I do regret crushing Mandalore. I may have to make it up to him later. 

Mandalore (Mace Windu got his hand cut off and he cried like a baby and got pushed out a window... really? Fail.)

Mandalore the Preserver vs. Revan (hand-to-hand combat, no Force powers)
