Space E-war

[TyrannoTitan]

Spectre waited on board the Malevolence, leaning against a wall in the bridge, a virtual keyboard-like interface being emitted by a device on his armored wrist, checking up with his employers about the current situation...

Mal'Ganis sprinted through the trees, the ruins in the distance. The Jedi had his lightsaber and a pistol, both being hidden, while he headed closer. If by some chance he could fool the target into dropping its guard, it would make the fight much easier for him...coming in with a gun or weapon in general drawn would just blow any cover he had. Mal'Ganis reached the first parts of the ruins, stepping through the ancient debris...

Shadow Haven forces were pulled from the location as the Vong were more interested in the now-abandoned Transhoda, the Devastators straightening out in space, their curved legs retracting back into their massive bodies, allowing for more controlled flight. The crab drone was attached to the back of one of the Devastators, still getting readings from the false asteroids dotting the area, keeping an eye on the situation, even as they left...

A large tube shaped ship with two side mounted gyro pods and a large thruster in the back hurdled away from the battle, carrying supplies and crew trying to find refuge. Two loud bangs could be heard from inside, four dents in the ship's side. The door to the cone shaped cock pit opened, a imp looking bipedal crature in a silver outfit, the creature's face being the only visable part, a human in appearance. It walked down the length of the ship, opening a door to a room, two rooms on either side of the small ship. The human saw two dents in the ship's side, near a port hole. The human ran over to the port hole, side stepping a bunk bed and peering out to see a large shuttle like craft, about the same size of the vong ship reeling it's self close to the craft. "Pirates!" The humanoid yelled in it's native tounge, it not being english, backing up from the window. Suddenly, the ship rocked violently, explosions ringing out across the metal shell of the ship. The side mounted 8 foot tri barrels cannon just behind the cock pit opening fire, a gray scaly face being visable from the targetting window. "Dont damage it too much!" Kystion yelled over the ship's radio system. "I want to get some merchandise that's actually in good condition!" The gray faced creature in a black almost leathery suit muttered "yes sir" under it's breath in it's hissing native tounge. He held a yoke stick like object to aim the tri barrel at the ship's main thruster, firing three plasma orbs into the engine, the exposed burner exploding violently in red flames, lurching the unarmed ship foward, taking the "Depth Charge", Kystion's piratting craft with it. Reeling the disabled craft close, the cables holding two grappling hook like objects to the ship with foward facing prongs embedded in the ship's side. A hatch in the Depth Charge's roof opened, a metalic pannel flipping up, an 8 foot creature in a form fitting blue space suit with a tube trailing from it's helmet getting out of the ship and drifting over to the ship. He had a laser cutter weapon, and when he landed on the ship maneuvered to the air lock, cutting away at the pannel covering it. Kystion then removed the hatch, descending into a dim lit shaft, a bright light mounted on Kytion's helmet turning on to light the descent into the ship..

The man put his book down and got up, stretching. He sighed and made his way over to the side of the ruin, climbing up a ladder and onto the top of one of the walls which still stood, he started munching on some fruit, glancing around the landscape....

Over the forest, a small bird sized plane glided along, a blacked out lens examining the ground below....

"As long as the war doesn't involve me," replied Arqueek. "I would like to keep my fur out of danger for once."

Grievous sent messages to both Serephir and Revan: "What is the status of your fleets?" The cyborg stood a the central platform on the bridge, staring out into the stretched out stars that marked Hyperspace travel...

The red laser beam sliced throug the secondary air lock door at the bottom of the shaft, Kystion touching the base of his neck with his free hand, a blue glow eminated from the bottom of Kystion's feet. When finished carving out the pannel, a blue blast of flame fired from Kystion's rocket boots, flying out of the shaft as the secondary door and many loose objects came flying out of the ship in the explosive decompression, including the human that was just running back to the cockpit..

After the all of the ship's air escaped it, Kystion made his way back to the craft, going down the chute and into the ship it's self. Jystion landed on the gray metalic floor, looking about the blue metal walls. Walking down the hall way that was the length of the ship, Kystion came to the opened cockpit door, seeing the choking pilot of the craft. The human in a black and silver suit held his throat, turning to see the blue suited pirate. Kystion sighed. "They all ways go down so...pathetically.." He walked over to the ship's computer pannel, paying no mind to the now dead and going blue human, pressing a button, unlocking all of the rooms in the craft. Kystion then exited the room with another short burst, moving into the space in between the two rooms on the right side, where a sliding door was located. Kystion reached into a pouch on his side, pulling out a silver sphere with a red button, slamming it onto the door and then kicked off from the wall, his boots bursting back to life, flying back and up the shaft, the button then blinking red 5 times before the sphere detonated, blowing out the door. Just then, other figures in blue and black suits, the rest of the Depth Charge's crew, clambered out of the hatch in the shuttle's roof, their suits not having the cable, though their times in space were limited, the crew moved over to the openings in the ship, raiding the ship for it's cargo...

[TyrannoTitan]

Mal'Ganis pressed himself against a large wall, able to hear what sounded like someone eating above. The Jedi moved swiftly across the span of the wall, heading in through a gap, trying to find some way of getting on top of the wall...

[Anaclagon]

"Heavy...over 40% casualties the rest are damaged" Revan simply responded. The Sith had lost many, many ships along with mass groups of starfighters. Revan watched as he looked around...he could sense the relief his men were feeling at the moment. But many good men were lost during the battle. The Imperial Fleet that had survived the encounter were covered in damage, it was common to see parts of the hull having holes in it or parts of the ship itself falling apart..

[Doc 42]

The moment the jedi disappeared through the gap, a barely visible shimmer in the air glided out of the forest before pouncing onto the wall noiselessly. It scurried up it before resting at the top, a human not too far away, facing away from it and eating something... The ARIS Assassin scanned around the ruin, its padded toes and fingers clinging to the wall like glue. It couldn't see it, but it knew there was another drone waiting on the opposite side of the ruin, watching. All around the structure, a squad of ARIS drones were silently surrounding it...

[TyrannoTitan]

Mal'Ganis froze, suddenly sensing the presences of various others, besides his original target...by the somewhat vague force signature, the Jedi could easily assume they were droids, or at least some kind of machines. Had he been set up? Mal'Ganis didn't know...he crept forward, slowly pulling out the hilt of his lightsaber, not yet activating either side of the weapon, moving toward a set of stairs leading up to the wall...

[Doc 42]

The man took another bite out of the fruit and lay back, relaxed and feeling peaceful. He had spent far too long being paranoid.

The Asssassin on the far wall, spotted the Jedi and immediately zoomed in on him, raising its weapon, but holding its fire... They weren't taking any chances...

[TyrannoTitan]

Mal'Ganis looked to the nearest force signature, seeing the raised weapon. Sprinting forward, the Jedi bounded up the steps, soon disappearing, arriving on the top level. Immediately spotting the lounging target, the Jedi grabbed onto the man's collar, yanking him to his feet, lightsaber extending as he held the weapon to the man's neck, his back against the wall. "Not how I intended this to go...regardless, you are coming with me. I hope you are familiar with being shot." Mal'Ganis snarled to his captive, referring to the target's role of being a human shield for the time...

[Doc 42]

The man screamed loudly, dropping his fruit and struggled. He tried to stop when he saw the blade, his breathing fast and uncontrolled...

Knowing it had been spotted, the Assassin turned off its camouflage, but otherwise didn't move, still trailing its gauss rifle on the Jedi.

The other assassin vaulted over the top of the wall and landed onto the same lip as the Jedi and his hostage. Its camouflage deactivating as well, its spiked toes clipping back into place and digging into the ground. Its gauss rifle was raised as well, pointing at the Jedi's hip. It quickly buzzed out in an inhuman voice "Halt and you shall not be harmed."

Down below, the rest of the squad burst in, about 12 drones in all. 2 sharpshooters, 1 Atlas support drone and 9 Assault Troopers. They took up various positions, forming a large semi circle around the Jedi, weapons pointing up at him...

[TyrannoTitan]

"I don't think so..." Mal'Ganis responded, flicking his free hand at the machine, causing it to soar off the wall before crashing into a nearby tree. Lightsaber still at the man's throat, Mal'Ganis headed back down the stairs, trying to keep the target between him and any possible attackers...

[Doc 42]

The assassin managed to land onto the tree using its secondary arms, flipping onto its feet and clinging to the bark before leaping off it, disappearing down by the side of the ruin.

One of the assault troopers droned out "Halt, deactivate your weapon and surrender or you shall be incapacitated by force"

The Jedi was quick, they knew that. They had researched him, however, it was unlikely he could stop every shot fired at him.

[TyrannoTitan]

"I said I don't think so...do you droids ever learn?" Mal'Ganis responded, still keeping the man between him and as many angles of attack he could find. It would be very difficult to leave as such...but truthfully, the Jedi didn't think he would be leaving with the target, which didn't exactly matter to him. Mal'Ganis continued toward another gap in the ruins, trying to find a way out...

[Doc 42]

Gunfire suddenly rattled out through the ruin. Multiple shots being aimed at Mal'ganis. Some were directed at his knees, other his thighs, others at his stomach. The human shield wouldn't even slow the bullets down...

[TyrannoTitan]

Mal'Ganis lept into the air, allowing the bullets to hit his human shield, having force jumped away from the target area. Landing just outside the ruins, the Jedi darted into the foliage, enhancing his speed with the force, while also darting in a fairly sparatic fashion. The machines talked about incapacitating him...he wasn't about to be captured again for a bounty...it wasn't worth it...

[Doc 42]

The assassin that had been force pushed earlier was already hot on his tail. The machine leapt from where it stood, rolling into a crouch. Its arm shot out, 4 silent clicks issuing from its gauss rifle, 4 bullets rocketing after Mal'Ganis. One smashed into a tree next to the alien, spraying bark into the air, another smashed through a fern on its other side. The next one grazed the Jedi's side, being deflected off course by his body armour, the last missed entirely. Immediately, the machine sped off after Mal'Ganis, its machine senses scanning through the forest, detecting life signs at times, highlighting his trail in other parts. Behind it, the rest of the squad bounded over or around the ruin and sped off into the jungle as well, their line slowly expanding to the sides like a wave, to ensure that if the Jedi stopped, they could surround him easily.... Over head, the scout drone glided along, following the chase and giving the drones a birds eye perspective...

[TyrannoTitan]

Suddenly, Mal'Ganis burst from the jungle below, rocketing through the air above the vast jungle, immediately spotting another machine hovering above the foliage as well. Pistol drawn, Mal'Ganis put a few shells into the machine's 'face', the high velocity bullets acting more like plasma then actual bullets. Taking off once more, Mal'Ganis soared off away from the ruins, attempting to lose his enemies...

Some time later in space, the incapaciated ship was looted, it's cargo now in the cargo bay of the Depth Charge.

"Make it look like a war victim, we were never here" The gray scaled humanoid with a reptillian face nodded to Kystion's orders, taking his seat in the tri barrel gun station, aiming the guns at the craft and letting loose a storm of plasma fire.

Turning away from the display of gun fire, raising an arm and tapping his wrist, speaking "What was in those crates we got?". A gruff voice replied "Some flash frozen food, a few credits useful in the near by star system and some clothes, I say we sell the clothes and some food."

Kystion replied "Alright, plot a coarse to the nearest convergent sector for space travellers." another voice, a deep baratone replied "A moon base called Hobo89 is a parsec away" Kystion turned around, looking to his navigator, blue skin and large green compound eyes and a slit for a mouth in a black and orange jump suit. "Hobo89?"
"Its a market for creatures like us, thieves, pirates, swindlers, intergalactic criminals..you dig? Desperate travellers would shell out for the stuff we got"
Kystion replied "Well then, lets go pay this hive of bums a visit.."
