The Dark Unknown (rpg) Sign Up (Page 6 of 17)

Penalla: Yes, these two actually are my underlings. I cannot believe you two were given such a hard time by these girls.

Tamos: Eh, wanted a challenge.

Dacrott: Please, we took it easy on them. (Force pushes Shab into the wall, causing her to drop to her knees.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Nitsua: It's better for her to be taught how to use the force properly.

Sorry it takes me a while to post now but I am working 7 days a week now.
===========================

Jester: (Uses the Force to see what has went down since I have been in the Sith Base.)

Jester: These actions will put some more action in this place.

Jester: (Laughs and starts walking back to the docks.)

Xam sees Shab about to make a smart comment, but knowing in this case it's more likely to get them killed, she speaks up first.

Xam: Thanks for the offer, but we're fine here.

Shab, realising Xam is saving her from her own mouth, bites her tongue and nods in agreement.

==========

Nei: *quietly* She's fine, but sleeping. The Jedi is insisting on taking her to Corusant, I can't even convince him to consult her. *sighs* As arrogant as he is, though, he is right about her needing to learn to control her power.

Xam: *waits till they're out of sight* I better confirm they have actually left.

Shab: Actually, I think I might have a hunch who they're trying to avoid. *pauses as she thinks* Reckon you can tag them in some way?

Xam: I know a few maintenance men who can try and slip something, but I can't guarantee that they won't find it, you might get a couple of parsecs before they ditch it.

Shab: Then I better be quick so I can catch up within that time.

==========

Nei: *quietly* Honestly, I don't know. You're being taken to people who shouldn't want to harm her, but what precise plans they have I wouldn't like to guess. She's powerfully strong in the Force, and whilst the Jedi are usually good people, as an organisation they employ an amount of subterfuge they would never admit to. *sighs* However, whilst difficult, it is possible to run away if it progresses beyond what she is comfortable doing. Depending on how much security they place around her. *pauses* We've got until we dock to try and find out more about their intentions, whether they'll divulge anything...

Nei: I know being a Jedi is a life of sacrifice to serve light and defeat dark, personal desires are secondary, if that. But does he have any interest in what will be best for her, or is it just to nurture her power for use by the Jedi?

Jester: (Stops walking and pulls out a com)

Jester: Has everyone arrived and ready to start Operation 82?

Com: Yes my Lord.

Jester: Good, Begin now.

Com: As you command my Lord.

Jester: (Places the com back into my pocket and starts walking towards the docks.)

(As Jester walks towards the docks all the men and women that Jester recruited begin the first part of Operation 82. Each man and woman have a ship and docking doors to deactivate where they are no longer able to start and for the doors to open.)

Jester: (Pulls out the beeping com)

Com: It is done my Lord with every ship disabled and docking bay doors disabled.

Jester: Very good, Return to the ship and stay on guard and I will be with you all shortly.

Com: Understood..

Jester: (Sends out a Force wave of pure evil, pure Darkside Power that any and every person that is intone to the Force can feel.)

Jester: (YELLS) THE TIME HAS BEGUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jester: (Looks at Shab)

Jester: I do not recall that name, Why?

Xam's partway back to the cantina when her comm-link goes, and she raises a hand to click it back on, only to be greeted by the Hutt that oversees the district.

Comm-link: Why has a Sith locked down the dock?

Xam comes to a full stop as she processes that information.

Xam: Good question.

Comm: Get it undone. There are shipments due! I will not have profits compromised because you can't handle security arrangements.

Xam quickly arranges the techies to work on the lock-down. Until she knows what they're facing she'd rather avoid force, hoping that Shab might be able to shed some light on the matter soon, if her contact plays out. Meanwhile she has bigger concerns, not having a Hutt whip her hide for losing profits, which means a ship and pilot who can operate outside a locked dock.

Once back at the cantina she quickly settles at her console, accessing the dock security footage and opens a new link, seeing if the two kids she sent are still in once piece. If that ship is still in once piece it both might be able to get past the lock-down, and she potentially had communication with it.

==========

Nei: So am I allowed to wake the girl before we arrive to at least tell-

She stops abruptly as they all hear a beep emanate from Sara Jane, all turning to it. Nei reaches, but pauses to allow Venrii to grant her permission to search, and gently locates a small communication device, holding it out to Kraven and Venrii.

Nei: *to Nitsua* Names, people have names. Didn't they teach you manners?

As no one else has moved to take the communicator Nei flicks it on and greets whoever is calling.

==========

After almost resigning herself to being ignored Xam nearly jumps at the synthetic voice who answers.

Xam: As this is clearly not who I expected, can I ask who I'm speaking to?
