"And what wonders might those be?" said Serephir as he eyed the crate, still suscpicious of the contents...

Alex turned back and said in the robotic voice "Bell, show em the spoils of eternity..." The red armour clad merc put a hand on the lid and pulled it back roughly, the light shineing into the air, refelcting off the treasures inside. Golden throphies and Tourquise jewels. There were elaborate golden statues of dragons, jewels embedded in its hide, serveing as a mere challice. The crate wouldn't have looked out of place in a fairy tale dragons hold. These were the type of goods that mortal creatures spent whole life times searching for. Infact, the original finders of these artificats spent alot more than a few life times accuireing them...

Serephir rolled his eyes at the apparent leader of the group. What a corny choice of words he thought to himself as he watched on. as the contents of the crate were exposed, he raised an eyebrow, impressed. the men around him gawked at the crate full of gems, their beauty beyond what most of them had ever seen in their lives. "Impressive. but i doubt that's the only kind of good you're selling. care to show us what else you've brought with you?" he said, while tapping a few things onto a small folding computer built into his arm guard...

Alex folded his arms saying "This is only sample. The rest remains in the Arrow for now. What 'other' types of goods would you be interested in?" He had a feeling that the man was talking about weapons. Alex had never been much of a gun runner, most weapons they accuired were used by themselves, but he did happen to have some things he could afford to sell off. Considering technology differences it would be alot more useful to these men that it was to him.

"Well, besides treasure. things like food, technology, books of other galactic civilisations, the like. things that can be of use to travellers, weaponry of various types. something we can reproduce for use by civilians. that sort of thing. anything and everything you have to sell besides gold, silver and jewels" said Serephir, his personal tradesman's skills coming to surface. at one time before he had been dragged into the military, he had worked in trading himself, albeit restricted to Vardia by his tight budget before the government drafted him in, spoiled him with money to prevent treason and turned him into the ultimate super soldier...

Finally, on one of the remaining catwalks, a Heavy Trandoshan Mercenary, armed with a massive Heavy ACP Repeater, appeared. It growled, "I will rip your head from your shoulders, humans!" before it opened fire, the sheer volume of ACP rounds tearing through the GEKKOs and humans mercilessly.

Meanwhile, Grievous watched the carnage from above and laughed. "Fools... they think they can get through my defenses? They haven't even met my droid army yet!"

Alex hummed to himself and then responded "We trade mostly in luxurious. However.... I think this would interest you... very much." he reached down to his belt and pulled out a small black disk. he tapped a key at the side of it and a 3d display poped up, various icons rotateing around. He poked one or two of the icons and then pressed the key at the side again. The display shrunk back into the disk and then it lit up again, sending a greenish 3d image of Vardia up infront of him. It rotated around calmly and he pinched the side of the image, drawing it closer to the disk and makeing it smaller. As he did so, three wireframe moons poped into view around the planet, orbiting around it slowly. He tapped one of the moons with a finger and information poped up about it, mostly in relation to the planet, such as co-ordinates, speed, Rotations per hour and other useful info. Alex said in his robotic voice "Whats this? An inter planetary travel chart small enough to fit in my pocket... Or is it an inter galatic chart?" He pinched the edge of the image again and pushed it down smaller. instantly other planets came into veiw near the edges, Vardia and its moons shrinking.

"Impressive, indeed. i could make use of something like that myself. so that's it as far as practical objects go?" said Serephir, his arms crossed as he watched on. what he had been shown so far were things he had seen before on several occasions. he was almost ready to approve entry into the Vardian cities, but needed one last bit of proof. meanwhile, an investigation Drone was hovering over the chest of jewels, using an X-Ray scan to make sure the jewels weren't hiding something else beneath them...

A soldier screamed as it flew back from the sheer power of the gun. The GEKKOs used their heads to block, the metal surpressing the bullets but weakening the armor instead. One of the GEKKOs moved its head up, firing a grenade that connected with the alien creature, destroying it completely, but also made its organic legs valnerable. The GEKKO squirmed and moved around akwardly, trying to regain its balance, but soon also fell, crushing another soldier with it. Soon the other GEKKO fell aswell, as did the remaining soldiers...

"Sir, our investigation proved worth while." A voice in Frank's mind said. "The group found the invasion force's base, but were slaughtered by the sheer numbers they had at their disposel." he explained calmly. Frank sighed, annoyed. "Then ready the troops, ready the Metal Gears. There is no place for them to hide should they come to our planet. They will witness the true power of Shadow Haven..." Frank replyed. His words were true, ALL of the planet, oceans excluded, were large grasslands. Very few hills were located on the planet, and mountains were almost non-existant. If they planned to attack them on the ground, they would have to fight a head-on battle...

The remaining soldier was picked up by a second Heavy Merc that appeared and thrown against the wall. The Trando brutally thrust his weapon's bayonet into the human, pinning him to the wall and finishing him off with a burst of ACP fire. He let the body fall, and growled into his com, "General, it seems humans know we are here. We have defeated them with minimal casualties." "Then we will prepare an attack on their planet soon," replied Grievous. He said into the ship's com, "All troops, prepare for a battle! Ready the Vulture Droids and Tri-Fighters!"

Shadow Haven was now completely active, RAVENs filling the sky, ordered to destroy any threats that try to attack the base directly. With the planetary cloaking and the massive RAVENs patrolling the sky, the enemies should be forced to resort to ground combat only. Frank was busy discussing their plans of action with the other members of Dead Cell, while more and more troops were readied. The Metal Gear REXs had their pulse laser cannons pointed up, ready to rip apart anything that came through the atmosphere...

Alex closed down his personal mapping charts and slid the disk back into its pouch. It was one of his most valueable posessions, having had it ever since he begun commanding the Free Company. He said "We have other items that we are willing to sell... but they are rather simple and you probably have your own equivilents of them aswell. However, you don't seem like the average space port civilian. We have on our ship an organic specimen of an alien race... very strange properties. The thing followed us for days before manageing to burn into our hull. We could let you have it for a price once it has been removed." As always, everything was buisness

Most of Grievous' troops were prepared by this point. However, he wasn't going anywhere until he was sure Revan would assist. "Grand Admiral," he said through his com, "Where is Revan? We must retaliate and take that planet immediately. As you are probably aware by now, the planet is hostile."

The two preatorians had now finished their meal, the snake having been reduced to a skeleton. They would search for hosts for half an hour before returning to the hive. they knew where many human patrols frequented thanks to runners being sent to spy on the humans from time to time.

"Long range scanners are confirmed heavy resisitance...we need a battle plan first...we'll get Revan back at the helm, as for now General, Prepare your troops..." The Grand Admiral replied.

The Grand Admiral then looked at the commander next to him...he could have been senting this officer to his death..but regardless, the deed must be done.

"Commander...head for Revan's quarters, tell him we are requring his presence for the upcoming battle that will need him in command of the fleet.." The Grand admiral replied as the commander nodded and went off..

by **dinoman666** » Sun Apr 13, 2008 1:22 am

"My troops are already mobilized," replied Grievous. "I am ready to attack the planet."

by **Anaclagon** » Sun Apr 13, 2008 2:05 am

The commander stopped and swallowed hard as the door opened...

"My...lord?" Suddenly the man was lifted into the air, he felt like something invisible was chocking the man as suddenly he was thrown outward as he then smashed into a wall after being thrown foward. His throat smashed...

Revan appeared walking through the doorway, sensing his arrival...this officer was new to the Annihilator and he found out the hard way on how to wake the Dark Lord.

Darth Revan found himself back at the bridge as the Grand Admiral bowed at his apperance...

"Im aware of what's going on...but we need a plan..." Revan replied, his voice reaching that of the transmission as well..

by **dinoman666** » Sun Apr 13, 2008 2:07 am

"I suggest we send out an small space attack force," said Grievous. "If it doesn't succeed, we'll simply attack them on the ground. I already have Annihilator droids ready for attack."

by **Anaclagon** » Sun Apr 13, 2008 2:11 am

"No...We must attack with full force, this battle will take several hours, several days maybe several weeks...we cant let up the assualt. Our ships should move into poistion and hold the planet on hostage to bombard certain targets as we should hold our orbital blockade. We then send out invasion forces to main cities and targets and fight them head on..we must hold the blockade, wipe out incoming reinforcements and force them to submit.." Revan replied..

by **dinoman666** » Sun Apr 13, 2008 2:15 am

"If you insist," responded Grievous. "However, I will still send my forces in from a different location. We don't want any surprises."
