Mike Miles walks to the classroom and says, "All right, my dad's in Sick Bay, so I'm leading class today. I'm gonna teach you the uses of anti-material explosives, mainly shaped charges. Now watch."
Mike then went to the Durasteel column and took a cone about the size of a fist, and attaches it to the six foot square column. He attaches det cord to it and walks about thirty feet away and explodes it. The column falls and he goes on, "Now, I will issue each of you ONE shaped charge. You will attach the LARGE end to the walls, and attach the cord at the back end. On my command, you will detonate it as far away as you can without streching the det cord out fully. Come on..."

Odcal wandered around the academy in his free time. He walked past a kid who was attempting to substitute for the demolitions teacher.
"Now, I will issue each of you ONE shaped charge. You will attach the LARGE end to the walls, and attach the cord at the back end. On my command, you will detonate it as far away as you can without streching the det cord out fully. Come on..."
"Oohh... that's gonna hurt." Odcal quickly walked away. He checked his watch. The supply ship will be arriving soon. I might as will watch the unloading of the ship. He headed toward the main hanger.

"READY! STEADY! FIRE!!!" With that, the students detonated and the brick walls and trees shattered.
"I know I might not be as good as my dad, but I know my pyro stuff. Second group, form up! After this, we'll build a fire and play with thermite."

I walked out of the dueling room, hearing a loud BANG in the process and smiled. Looks like Master Miles is at it again!

-----

The Destiny Bond landed and the pirates started unloading the goods, as part of the plan. Captain Morgan looked around the hangar, seeing a couple of nasty-looking droids and a kid. He smiled. The Jedi are not as great as I thought! This will be easy.

He barked orders to his crew. Execution orders. Capital-grade laser cannons were leveled at the droids, and they began to shoot large bolts of red coherent energy at the mechanicals. The pirates waited for the dust to clear...

----

"What was that?" I asked, as I heard a faint sound. It was the hangar! Clutching my bokken and lightsaber, I ran over to see what was wrong.

----

"Hmm?" Master Elendil took notice of the Force warning him of something. Then the Academy Threat Board lit up at the hangar. "Intruders."

He hit the alarms, to alert the Jedi and fleet in the sky. "We have intruders at the hangar. We cannot let them pass." He said, through the PA system.

Kasandral jumped up, drawing her rapier. Many initiates were told to go to a safe-room, but she decided she would go help in the hangar. She began jogging down te corridor. Maybe I'll even get to use Force Grip... She grinned at the thought. As she neared the hangar, she slowed down. She readied herself by the group of jedi forming there, hoping none would tell her to leave.

"S@#$. My robots have been blow up. The only thing that could do that is a spaceship or a tank." said JWolf as he was putting his pistols in their holsters and put his duster.

"Kartion, follow me. Erik, you too." said Lord JWolf as his turn his lightsabers to the high setting.

Lord JWolf and Erik ran towards the hanger.

They saw some Jedis there allready.

OOC: Is there another way in to the hanger?

Kasandral quickly stretched, and went over again in her mind how to do the force grip. Then she readied her rapier and prepared to enter the hangar. She would try stealth....sneak around the edge of the hangar to get to the enemy.......

OOC: Not really. There's the main entrances...but I think there's a droid entrance, too. Small enough for Daniel or Erik to crawl through.

IC:
I reached the hangar, just in time for the bunch of pirates to attack. They roared war-cries of various languages and charged.

"Hey, there's a kid here!" one of them cried.

"Stun him!" Captain Morgan cried in that annoying pirate-voice of his. "Stun him or I'll feed ye scumbags to the next Scarlacc I could find!"

The pirates shot at Odcal, firing stun bolts at the Jedi brat.

"Damn." I swore and ducked behind a metal crate in the hangar. "That's Odcal! What should I do...?"

I had to think quickly, looking around the hangar. "I hope this works..." I concentrated on a toolbox full of wrenches and hydrospanners, sending the objects flying towards the pirates...

Master Elendil walked briskly with several Jedi, heading towards the hangar. They had their sabers out, but not ignited yet.

Lord JWolf said "Where hell did Kasandral go?"

OOC: Not really. There's the main entrances...but I think there's a droid entrance, too. Small enough for Daniel or Erik to crawl through.

Master Elendil walked briskly with several Jedi, heading towards the hangar. Theu had their sabers out, but not ignited yet.

Lord JWolf said "Erik, stay here." Then use the Force to throw stuff at the pirates ship to trick them.

OOC: What about coming from outside into the hanger?

OOC: Blocked by the cargo ship's weapons. The pirates are smart enough to know that they need only one front.

IC:
Pirates found themselves being beaned on the head with various objects from me and Lord JWolf.

Michael, hearing the alarms, rused the students back to their dorm rooms where they would be under the protection of HKs and other droids. He then grabbed his M1911 pistol, a few grenades, a vibroblade, and his rifle that he carried with him everywhere (a M-14). He rushed over to the hanger, hoping to help repel the invaders.
------------------
*at the infirmary*
David heard the alarms, he had partially recovered, and Force levitated a few dozen Adrenal stimulants. Each one should last him about ten minutes, so he could last thru a good engagement. He also summoned his lightsaber, rifle (a custom made sniper rifle, he is a former sniper after all), his Glock, and Disruptor pistol. He then injected himeself with Adrenaline and took control of a Security speeder with mounted machinegun and made his way towards the fight.

Lord JWolf saw a the right arm of one the Blood Wolf type robots. The arm hovers 6 feet off the ground and about 40 yards in front of the pirates.

"All Jedis, try to take their guns away for them." order Lord JWolf. Then he make the gun fire at the pirates by Odcal.

Erik use all his power to take the pirates' guns away from them.

OOC: Remember its a dual .50 cal. machine gun.

I concentrated on the Force, and grabbed some blasters from the pirates. I floated one over to me. I looked at the blaster, having never killed anyone before. I ran over to Odcal, firing shots at the pirates, and grabbed him, pulling him back.

"Hey! That's the heir!" one shouted.

"Get him! Get that brat!" Captain Morgan shouted.

"Crap. I need cover, stat!" I shouted to the Jedi.

David hears this and says out loud, "Sure, I'll take their gun away." He then lines up a shot on one of the heavy-weapon gunner's heads and pulled the trigger on the silenced rifle. The Ridian's head exploded like an over-ripe watermelon back on Earth. "How about them apples?" David said over his commlink.

Oops, time for some more adrenaline...

Master Elendil blasted the pirates back with a powerful telekinetic attack. "Well, Daniel, you got yourself in a sticky situation." He smiled.

Har har. I thought, as I blasted away with my blaster.

OOC: I'm going to wait till everyone is up tomarrow before posting the end of the pirates.

I concentrated on the Force, and grabbed some blasters from the pirates. I floated one over to me. I looked at the blaster, having never killed anyone before. I ran over to Odcal, firing shots at the pirates, and grabbed him, pulling him back.

"Hey! That's the heir!" one shouted.

"Get him! Get that brat!" Captain Morgan shouted.

"Crap. I need cover, stat!" I shouted to the Jedi.

The robot arm hit the ground. Then man land in front of one pirates. The man stood up and smile show off his fangs then hit the pirate in the head and bite his neck. The body hit the floor.

"Who next?" said Lord JWolf with blood on his face. He pulls his pistols and open fire on the pirates. Erik, help Daniel will carrying Odcal out of the hanger. Erik ran over to help Daniel.


After the clips are empty, Lord JWolf puts his pistol back up then pulls his lightsabers. He active his lightsabers then runs to find a way to enter the ship.

A dozen blasters shot at Lord JWolf, trying to keep him away. A laser cannon also swiveled to shoot at him. There won't be an easy way to enter, that's for sure.

OOC: You will not, repeat not, be able to board the ship until RL tomarrow, Wolf America. Banak, Kartion, HK and others will need to put in their posts.

Michael, seeing his dad, jumps into the speeder's driver seat and says, "Hop in. Let's run and gun!" David jumped into the speeder's armored gunner's compartment and they headed off towards the hanger. They entered, shooting the blazes of the pirates in view, giving everyone else cover and covering fire to escape thru. They them posted around the door to make sure nobody tried to exit the craft without their permission.

Eamonn had followed the other out to the hanger where the attack was taking place. He kept back as he scoped out what was going on.

Banak felt the battle through the Force and heard the alarms. He looked to the space where the visage of his old master had been. Sithspit. Even a hundred years after she's dead and she's still got it...

The small Jedi walked to the boxes and unlocked all of them. Taking two bandoliers out, gernades going around each, an extra blaster and his lightsaber, he opened his door and looked at the nearest gaurd droid. "If you require additional weapons, you may use my stockpiles."

With that, he moved quickly towards the hanger and enters, using the aformentioned Droid enterance(yay for being shorter than an R2 unit). Coming out from behind a crate, he heaved two concussion gernades at the pirates, using the force to increase his range.

Activating his saber he moved around them, laughing and deflecting several blaster bolts heading towards him. He finds cover again and decides to have a bit of fun with them. He uses the Force to 'speak' to the whole hanger. "It's been many years since I've been in a battle that was such fun. I applaud your moronic choice of bounties."

A dozen blasters shot at Lord JWolf, trying to keep him away. A laser cannon also swiveled to shoot at him. There won't be an easy way to enter, that's for sure.

OOC: You will not, repeat not, be able to board the ship until RL tomarrow, Wolf America. Banak, Kartion, HK and others will need to put in their posts.

Lord JWolf knocks the blaster shot back at the pirates and rolls out of the way of the laser cannon. Then he rolls under the ship and hide in the shadow. He is waiting for Kartion and the other.

OOC: I know. I will need Kartion help in killing the crew of the ship. Plus I can see this whole battle in my head.

Erik, help Daniel will carrying Odcal out of the hanger. Erik ran over to help Daniel.
"Don't need no help..." Odcal said. He looked back. "Heads down guys." He ducked down and pushed Erik's and Daniel's heads down just in time to save them from a bunch of blaster fire. Odcal concentrated and attempted to use the Force to slow down the pirates. A nearby box started shaking and Odcal tried shoving it towards the pirates. It worked, but it wasn't fast or heavy enough. Damn. It was empty. Time to use other methods then. Odcal slipped his hands into his pockets and spread a bunch of marbles between the pirates and the exit. He then used the Force to start shooting marbles one by one at the pirates. "Come on guys, I think its time to get out of here."

Kasandral hid behind an X-Wing. Every few minutes she would peek out. Finally, she saw a target. She extended her hand and concentrated, focusing all her hate on this one pirate. He began coughing, and soon could not breathe at all. As he choked to death Kasandral did the same to several other pirates, reveling in the sensation of her first kills with the force.....

Odcal heard the strained attempts at breath behind him. He saw pirates choking to death. What the.... He quickly surveyed the scene. He could not see anyone doing the force grip that was visible. Better ask someone about that later. He grabbed a blaster from a dead pirate and with Daniel and Erik got out of the hanger.

Kasandral hid behind an X-Wing. Every few minutes she would peek out. Finally, she saw a target. She extended her hand and concentrated, focusing all her hate on this one pirate. He began coughing, and soon could not breathe at all. As he choked to death Kasandral did the same to several other pirates, reveling in the sensation of her first kills with the force.....

Lord JWolf was watching Kasandral and saw her choke a pirate. She is growing close to the Dark side. I have to stop that. he said in his mind. Then Lord JWolf did a powerful Force wave at her.

OOC: JWolf you f**king dumbass. I was on the roof! And you said 'No Force'. And you used the force to contact Erik and make him turn off the lights, which wasn't very honourable. So what you did not only didn't give me time to respond, but was stupid, because you would have fallen.

Oh and that 'gun' was a harpoon and towcable pistol. Basically I shot it at the roof, climbed up onto the roof, and then hung there. So rematch

HK Arrived just in time to see a group of kids barrelling out, he turned through into the room and rolled, surveying the area in the meantime, these pirates were outmatched, but were holding out, he wouldnt of even attempted such a mission.

HK Merely crouched, and producing a blaster rifle, began to take precise shots at any pirates stupid enough to come into their view, he also produced the grenade that wasnt used in his fight with banak, its sticky substance covering the centre of the main floor, trapping a few pirates in the process, they would be helpful, alive.

Kasandral fell backward, hit by some unknown force. What the--None of these pirates were jedi....how the hell did she get pushed?! And why? She would ask these questions to someone later. For now, she got back up and surveyed the scene, watching pirates fall left and right. She pulled her dagger out of her boot and launched it at one pirate. It struck him in the chest, and he fell. She readied her rapier and then charged, screaming a battlecry, scooping up her dagger on the way. Two pirates fell to her first charge, one with a slice to the neck, the other stabbed in the throat. She rolled under an A-Wing and hid for several minutes, surveying the scene.

OOC: At around 2:00 PST I can post again. Maybe a little sooner.

OOC: I was on the roof! And you said 'No Force'. And you used the force to contact Erik and make him turn off the lights, which wasn't very honourable. So what you did not only didn't give me time to respond, but was stupid, because you would have fallen.

OOC: Lord JWolf is vampire. Plus I was teaching kid a lesson. Plus we need you in the hanger, right now. You guy has to use the Force to hang Lord JWolf. Kartion - Normal & Lord JWolf - vampire. Don't called me a f**king dumbass. It makes you look like an idiot & an a$$.

OOC: Either way, I want a rematch.

OOC: Either way, I want a rematch.

OOC: You will get a rematch when I said you get one. Now have your guy get to the hanger. So, we can get in the ship.

OOC: Grrr. Both of you, quit it, now!

IC:
"Arrr! We are losing!" Captain Morgan cried. "Quickly, use the rocket launchers!"

Several pirates pulled RPGs out of the ship and sent them after the Jedi. Explosions rumbled the hangar as the RPGs blew up when they hit the wall.

I had to do something...hah! "Well, if it isn't Captain Morgan!" I shouted, to get his attention. "Congratulations! Your 'attack' on the Academy has done nothing but put holes in the wall!"

"Arr! You shut up, young cur!" The good captain roared. "I'll have you know that a 5 million credit bounty is on yer head, and I intend to collect it!"

I gulped. 5 million?! Damn...time to get in the academy proper! "You'll have to catch me, first!"

"That is my intention, Jedi boy. Get'm!" Captain Morgan yelled.

I ran over to the inner hangar bay door as pirates charged forward. Between dodging the blaster bolts and shooting my own blaster, there was a hefty hail of coherent light between me and the pirates, a very dangerous area of the hangar if you ask me.

I reached the bay doors with the bolts of red light still hot after my heels, as the Jedi continued to fight the pirates. Unfortunately, a blaster bolt nicked my leg, and I went down, hard. "OWW!"

Great...the pirates are near...and my blaster has run out of energy. Can anything be worse?!

OOC: Cliffhanger! Oh, and Captain Morgan is to survive the battle.

Suddenly, a large force knocked all the pirates back...

"Huh?" I asked as the pirates flew into walls, knocked out.

Blue lightning came for under the pirates' ship and hit the pirates that were throw again the wall. Erik, help Daniel to get out of here. Erik held out his hand to Daniel.

OOC: Can we get into the ship, now?

"Thanks, Erik." I grabbed his arm and pulled up, wincing at the pain in the leg. "By the way, where's Kartion?"

OOC: Waiting for Outer Heaven...

OOC: Wait a few, got dinner.

"Thanks, Erik." I grabbed his arm and pulled up, wincing at the pain in the leg. "By the way, where's Kartion?"

OOC: Waiting for Outer Heaven...

"I think he is coming." said Erik.

Kartion, where are you at? said Lord JWolf to Kartion in his mind. Then three pirates run at Lord JWolf. He swong three times and cut all of pirates in half.

OOC: Ok. Dinner? Where do you live? It is noon in Texas, right now.

OOC: England, I think.

OOC: England, I think.

OOC: That is why he posts, when I on at midnight.

Eamonn found himself in the hanger surrounded by a few pirates. Things weren't looking good for him unless the others were nearby. All he had to go by on were his wits and his sword as he had yet to master the force basics.

Shield your eyes Daniel! Kartion sent to Daniel's mind. Suddenly, out of the air, three cylinders appeared. They started to fall, when a loud *beep!* could be heard. The cylinders exploded, and the room filled with burning white light...(flash bangs!)

A lightsabre activated...

Screams could be heard...

I shut my eyes tight, yet the flash still burned through. I blinked a few times to clear the light.

Pirates were taken down by the lightsaber, screaming bloody murder.

"Whoa..." I said, in awe. "That's fast!"

"Hey little dude...open your eyes," Kartion said, "It's alright, I killed the rest." Behind him, there was a river of red, with gore, limbs, and an excess of pirates. Except for one....

Captain Morgan bit back the pain. He didn't know what had happend, but his left arm was a few meters away, neatly cut off. Cursing, he struggled to get up off the ramp...

"Hmm. Interesting. Perhaps we might even catch the Jedi off guard! What of the ships in orbit around the planet?" Alex asked, thinking of the research he has done over the years. "Even one platoon isn't going to fit in my shuttle."

Tak'a-Tamen: "Despite their vicotry, even the Rebel forces didn't destroy all of the imperial fleet. Captain Freeman will command the Star Destroyer Retalliation, whilst you command the mission. Captain Freeman will follow your orders as will the crew."

Tak'a-Tamen closed his eyes for a moment, as if reacting to a bright flash. It appeared something was already happening on Yavin. He opened his eyes again and raised an eyebrow.

Tak'a-Tamen: "It seems the Jedi are preoccupied with pirate trouble. Now is the best time to strike. Take the Retalliation and get the Jedi's attention. Use what ever means you see fit but I want them alive. Well, most of them anyway."

I gasped at the carnage. "What the...you did all that? and in less than 10 seconds?"

Captain Morgan cursed enough to shame a sailor. "Damn you all, Jedi! I'll be back!"

But when he turned around to get back in the ship, he bumped into Master Elendil. "I'm afraid your finished, Morgan. You'll be locked up for a very long time, I'm afraid."

The Jedi Master snapped his fingers, and three soldiers from the fleet up above took the cursing captain away.

Kartion grinned. "Is it that hard to believe little dude?" Kartion asked, while watching the cursing Captain being dragged off.

"Master Elendil, I need to talk to you." said Lord JWolf as he was getting the blood off of his face.

Kartion grinned. "Is it that hard to believe little dude?" Kartion asked, while watching the cursing Captain being dragged off.
"I guess not." I said. Now I really wanted to train with him! "Looks like I need more practice, eh?"

A medic came by to take care of my leg. "A bacta patch and you'll be all right, Daniel. You're lucky you can still walk."

I laughed. "But Jedi don't believe in luck. Only the Force."

The medic rolled her eyes and got to work.

"Heh, Jedi don't believe in luck. But just because you don't believe in something doesn't mean it's not there." Kartion said, patting Daniel's shoulder.

Tak'a-Tamen: "Despite their vicotry, even the Rebel forces didn't destroy all of the imperial fleet. Captain Freeman will command the Star Destroyer Retalliation, whilst you command the mission. Captain Freeman will follow your orders as will the crew."

Tak'a-Tamen closed his eyes for a moment, as if reacting to a bright flash. It appeared something was already happening on Yavin. He opened his eyes again and raised an eyebrow.

Tak'a-Tamen: "It seems the Jedi are preoccupied with pirate trouble. Now is the best time to strike. Take the Retalliation and get the Jedi's attention. Use what ever means you see fit but I want them alive. Well, most of them anyway."
"Very well." Alex smiled. "It has been a long time since I was in command of a Star Destroyer. Or even on board one. It'll be a pleasure to do it."

Alex went back to his shuttle, as the platoons got ready and boarded their transports. The ships then flew up to the Star Destroyer, and docked in the hangar bay. The Dark Jedi Master disembarked and met with an officer.

"Captain Freeman, I presume?"

"Master Elendil, I need to talk to you." said Lord JWolf as he getting the blood off of his face.
"Yes? What is it?" Master Elendil asked Lord JWolf.

---------

"Yeah. I guess your right." I said. Then I narrowed my eyes. "Hey, I heard from the cussing captain over there that I got a 5 million credit bounty on my head. That's not good."

Kartion grinned.

"At least it'll give you a lot of battle experience. But don't worry, we'll sort this out soon. Now c'mon, we need to train you up before we go."

Kartion grinned.

"At least it'll give you a lot of battle experience. But don't worry, we'll sort this out soon. Now c'mon, we need to train you up before we go."
"Yeah!" I said, and walked away with Kartion.

"Yes? What is it?" Master Elendil asked Lord JWolf

Lord JWolf looked around to see if Kasandral was by them. She was not close to them.
“Master, I have a strange felling of about Kasandral.” said Lord JWolf. "She knows the Force choke. Who show her that?"

"Captain Freeman, I presume?"


Freeman: "Yes my Master. Welcome on board the Star Destroyer Retalliation.

Captain Freeman took a very deep bow. He wanted to make sure he didn't offend his superior by breeching protocol.

Freeman: "We are ready to depart on your orders Master Masaki. If you will allow me, I shall lead you to the bridge?"

Look around to see if Kasandral was around them. She was not.
“Master, I have a strange felling of about Kasandral.” said Lord JWolf. "She knows the Force choke. Who show her that?"
"Force Choke?" Master Elendil narrowed his eyes. "If she killed with the Force...this isn't good. As far as I know, none of the initiates has learned how to use Force Choke properly yet."

Freeman: "Yes my Master. Welcome on board the Star Destroyer Retalliation.

Captain Freeman took a very deep bow. He wanted to make sure he didn't offend his superior by breeching protocol.

Freeman: "We are ready to depart on your orders Master Masaki. If you will allow me, I shall lead you to the bridge?"
The Dark Masaki bowed. "Yes. Lead me to the bridge."

"Now little dude, lemme show you something..." Kartion said, as he opened the door to his quarters.

Stepping in, he walked over to a crimson painted door. Grinning, he thumped a patch of green paint by the door (which is a disguised switch), and the door opened up to reveal some type of computer with a load of screens, linked up to two helmets. The helmets were attached to two leather chairs.

"Daniel, sit in one of those chairs." Kartion said, as he sat down in front of the computer.

"Force Choke?" Master Elendil narrowed his eyes. "If she killed with the Force...this isn't good. As far as I know, none of the initiates has learned how to use Force Choke properly yet."

"Did she leave the acadmeny a few days ago?" asked Lord JWolf.

"Now little dude, lemme show you something..." Kartion said, as he opened the door to his quarters.

Stepping in, he walked over to a crimson painted door. Grinning, he thumped a patch of green paint by the door (which is a disguised switch), and the door opened up to reveal some type of computer with a load of screens, linked up to two helmets. The helmets were attached to two leather chairs.

"Daniel, sit in one of those chairs." Kartion said, as he sat down in front of the computer.
"Ok." I sat down on the left chair. "What's up with the equipment?"

"Think of it as Virtual Reality. Now, pull the helmet down onto your head, and sit back, and be prepared for the rollercoaster ride of your life..." Kartion said, as he started hitting keys...

"Did she leave the acadmeny a few days ago?" asked Lord JWolf.
"Yes. But I think she's back now. If I recall, she's somewhere around here."

----

"Virtual reality?" I grinned, and pulled the helmet over my head and sat back in a comfortable position. "Ready!"

OOC: Enter the Matrix!

IC: "Here we go!" Kartion shouted. Hitting the enter key, he quickly ran over to the other chair. Jumping in, he quickly pulled the helmet over his head and sat back. A couple of seconds, a countdown came from the computer...

"Five..."

Kartion sighed, the screens started filling with code and images...

"Four..."

The Helmets powered up, but everything was still dark...

"Three..."

The computer started to hum and whine as the screens started flashing too fast to be seen...

"Two..."

The helmets started to whine, Kartion and Daniel could feel a large drop under them.

"Here we go!" Kartion shouted.

"One!"

Both Kartion and Daniel stiffened as their minds dropped hundreds of stories (what it feels like!), before their bodies flew around as if on a rollercoaster. Daniel screamed in fear while Kartion was cheering...

Light flooded into Daniel's eyes...

OOC: I may aswell go crawl into a hole and die, its not as though anyones paying any attention to my character.

"Yes. But I think she's back now. If I recall, she's somewhere around here."

"I don't know where she is now. See you around, Master." said Lord JWolf then bow to Master Elendil and walk to his room with Erik walking behind him.

Freeman obediently obeyed his master and led him to the bridge. The ship was well known throughout the galaxy for it's size and as such it took a bit of time for the Sith master to get to his destination.

The open plan control centre revealed itself to Freeman and Masaki as they entered. Freeman took a step forward,

Freeman: "ATTENTION!"

The crew all stood in unison as the impressively loud command quickly registered. It was all very clear to anyone that there was fear in the eyes of the bridge crew as their new superior greeted them.

OOC: I may aswell go crawl into a hole and die, its not as though anyones paying any attention to my character.

OOC: No don't. Core, talk to him. You are the one that control all the other Jedis at the acadmeny.

OOC: Its not just core, wherever i go, the only person to ever normally take notice is Banak.

OOC: Enter the Matrix!

IC: "Here we go!" Kartion shouted. Hitting the enter key, he quickly ran over to the other chair. Jumping in, he quickly pulled the helmet over his head and sat back. A couple of seconds, a countdown came from the computer...

Both Kartion and Daniel stiffened as their minds dropped hundreds of stories (what it feels like!), before their bodies flew around as if on a rollercoaster. Daniel screamed in fear while Kartion was cheering...

Light flooded into Daniel's eyes...
"What the..." I suddenly felt like falling. "Aaaaah!"

"What's going on here?"

------

Master Elendil went up to HK. "I am now tasking you with the protection of Daniel Masaki. Many threats will arise to harm him, and you need to be on your guard."

-----

Master Xavier Soloran looked over the carnage and sighed. "Heh. Daniel has a great teacher. But I see someone who doesn't have a teacher yet."

He walked over to Eamonn. "Hello. I presume you are Apprentice Eamonn?"

-----

"Good. Good." Master Masaki smiled. "I can see they are still well-trained. Captain, whenever you're ready, plot a course to the Yavin system."

"Compliance and Inquiry: Yes Master, Do you know the current position of Young Mr Masaki?" HK Asked.

OOC: Its not just core, wherever i go, the only person to ever normally take notice is Banak.

OOC: Lord JWolf has his robots to take care off. And Banak is the only think you are good.

Kartion walked up to Daniel, blocking the light from the window. He was dressed in Teras Kasi robes.

"You're 'in'. Stand up, and take a look in the mirror over there." Kartion siad, pointing to a mirror next to Daniel, which had just appeared.

Eamonn looked up, "Yes I am," he said, rubbing his right arm.

"Compliance and Inquiry: Yes Master, Do you know the current position of Young Mr Masaki?" HK Asked.
"I believe he and Knight Kartion has gone to the Virtual Reality Training Room." Master Elendil said with a twinkle in his eyes and a smile. "I don't really go for that kind of thing myself."

Eamonn looked up, "Yes I am," he said, rubbing his right arm.

"I notice you have yet to have someone train you one-on-one." Master Soloran said.

---

Kartion walked up to Daniel, blocking the light from the window. He was dressed in Teras Kasi robes.

"You're 'in'. Stand up, and take a look in the mirror over there." Kartion siad, pointing to a mirror next to Daniel, which had just appeared.

"Ok." I went over to the mirror. "Wow, something really is different."

I was wearing a loose white martial arts gi, like the Jedi robes, but softer. "Neato!"

"Gratification: Thank you master" HK Said, bowing and leaving..
..........

..........

...........

Tap Tap Tap rung out as HK's metallic fingers rung tapped against the door of the room.

There was no response, because Kartion and Daniel were in some simulation inside a computer...

E Z popped his head out, an Ion Blaster in hand.

"State your designation and your reasons for breaking into Master Elesto's quarters."

Eamonn shook his head as he placed his sword back into its sheath. "No Master," he said.

Eamonn shook his head as he placed his sword back into its sheath. "No Master," he said.

"Hmm. Well. I was thinking of training a student. You see, it has been a while since I last had an apprentice, and the Force tells me it's time to pick another." Xavier said.

"Good. Good." Master Masaki smiled. "I can see they are still well-trained. Captain, whenever you're ready, plot a course to the Yavin system."

Freeman bowed his head in acknowledgement,

Freeman: "Yes Master Masaki."

He crossed the walkway which led him over the control pit,

Freeman: "Helmsman, plot a course for the Yavin system and take us into hyperspace!"

The star destroyer accelerated forward for a moment and then it's engines flashed as it went into hyperspace.

Captain Freeman went up to Masaki with a humble look in his eyes,

Freeman: "Master Masaki? Warlord Tak'a-Tamen instructed me to deliver my complete cooperation to you and as such I would like to inform you of our current compliment. We have the garrison needed as well as an entire legion of storm troopers. With them we have our heavy armour which includes an AT-AT walker, three AT-ST scout walkers and speeder patrols."

Freeman looked confident at the massive invasion force housed within the ship and didn't feel shy in displaying it,

"May I ask Master, what your plan is?"

"Indeed my young 'padawan'. Now, look at me." Kartion said.

"And that would be me, Master?" he asked.

"Defensive Response: Designation, HK-96 Mk2 or "Andruid", The Door was unsecurely closed, and i am here by request from Master Elendil." HK Replied, Defensively, drawing back from E Z.

E Z lowered the Ion Blaster slightly.

"Acknowledged. Master Daniel and Master Elesto are unavailable. Please shut the front door, and sit down."

"Indeed my young 'padawan'. Now, look at me." Kartion said.
I looked Kartion in the eyes. "Yes Master."

---

"Yes, my Padawan." Xavier smiled, unknowingly echoing Kartion. "I'd say you need practice at bolt-blocking.

---

"You are to find and capture the young Jedi initiates: Erik, Eamonn, my grandson Daniel, and others. The older Jedi may be...dealt with any way you wish, but the Masters are mine, got it?" Alex asked.

HK Complied, shutting the door, but stood, and inspected E Z.

"Statement: Interesting, you appear to be of the same calibre as my own model, Curious, which one of the meatbags is responsible for your most interesting upgrades?" HK Asked

"Now, I am going to do a Mind Meld (not star trek!). I am going to connect with your mind, and send you all the knowledge you can get of Teras Kasi. Now, close your eyes, open your mind, and grit your teeth, because this is gonna hurt!" Kartion said.

E Z laughed. HK's were fun to talk to (I wonder why? LOL.).

"That 'meatbag' would be Master Elesto." E Z replied.

"Now, I am going to do a Mind Meld (not star trek!). I am going to connect with your mind, and send you all the knowledge you can get of Teras Kasi. Now, close your eyes, open your mind, and grit your teeth, because this is gonna hurt!" Kartion said.
"Right!" I shut my eyes tight, relaxed my mind to open it, and braced for impact.

A dull pain throbbed in Eamonn's arm, he began rubbing it again. "Okay, Master," he said.

"Here goes little dude..." Kartion said.

Gritting his teeth, he put his two middle fingers on both of Daniel's temples. Calling upon the Force, he copied the knowledge of Teras Kasi from his brain, and started to well it up. After a few seconds, two orbs of light welled up at the tips of Kartion's fingers. After a few seconds they lit up spectacularly, and shot into Daniel's temples...

Daniel's hair stood up on end, and he screamed as all the knowledge got squashed into his brain...

"You are to find and capture the young Jedi initiates: Erik, Eamonn, my grandson Daniel, and others. The older Jedi may be...dealt with any way you wish, but the Masters are mine, got it?" Alex asked.

Freeman quickly recognised the mercilessness in Masaki's voice,

Freeman: "Yes my Master!"

He summoned his ground Generals and started to make out a plan of attack. He didn't dare even think about his own opinion about the mission as he believed he would likely be turned inside out or some other horrid death by the Sith master. It would be some time before the Retalliation arrived at Yavin, but he knew his attack plan would be more than ready by then. However, he couldn't shake off the feeling that he might not return from this mission.

"Statement: At least he is a respectable meatbag, i suppose." HK Said, continuing to walk around E Z.

"Factual Statement: You really are one of the most interesting HK Models i have had the pleasure to meet." HK said, stopping his circling.

E Z laughed.

"Thank you. I have to admit, you're a pretty interesting as well. What job do you do, Bounty Hunter?" E Z asked.

A dull pain throbbed in Eamonn's arm, he began rubbing it again. "Okay, Master," he said.

IC:
"Hmm, let's get you fixed up there." Master Soloran said. He began to concentrate on the Force. "Hold out your arm."

------

"Owowowowowowow!" I yelped, like I was having a migrane of stellar proportions. I learned basics moves, and then more advanced moves with each second of painful headache. Always a price to pay...

A few more seconds later, it ended. Kartion bent down and looked Daniel in the eyes.

"Well?" Kartion asked.

Eamonn held out his arm just like he was told. He wasn't sure what to expect.

"Erik, get you some food for that case." said Lord JWolf.

"Yes, my lord." said Erik then got some Earth food out of the case.

Lord JWolf took his duster off and laid it the bed. then give a new shrit from his bag. He took his blooding shrit off and put the new one on.

He took the Dark Jedi Master's helmet off of the top shelf of the closet and put it on the bed, just looking at it.

Then puts two new clips in his pistols.

"Reply: Yes, i also have experience in escort and other such skills, and thank you for your comment." HK Said, with an almost "friendly" tone in his metallic artificial voice, all traces of sarcasm disappearing.

A few more seconds later, it ended. Kartion bent down and looked Daniel in the eyes.

"Well?" Kartion asked.
"I know Teras Kasi!" I said, looking Kartion in the eyes again.

---

"Don't worry, it won't hurt at all." Master Soloran grabbed the arm softly, and then, a warm feeling will wash over the arm as it healed.

---

"What is your opinion of the mission, Captain Freeman?" Dark Master Masaki asked softly. "and do not lie, for I can tell if you do."

E Z nodded, "You're most welcome. Tell me, how good a duelist are you?"

==========================================================

"Ace," Kartion said, before jumping to the other side of the Dojo. Grinning, Kartion got in a defensive stance.

"Now, hit me." Kartion said, giving him the challenge gesture.

OOC: Major matrix scene coming up!

Eamonn could feel it. "It's better," he said.

"Statement: I can hold my own against Master Banak, most of the time, although, his size may have something to do with it, no offense to him of course." HK Said.

"Inquiry: Why do you ask?"

"Because I want to see how well you duel. I find that to get to know someone, you need to fight them. Do you accept?" E Z asked, a challenge in her voice.

"Statement: I never turn down a challenge." HK Replied.

"What is your opinion of the mission, Captain Freeman?" Dark Master Masaki asked softly. "and do not lie, for I can tell if you do."

Freeman froze. He suddenly felt as if his whole life flashed in front of him several times. His prior experiences had enabled him to hide his emotions, but nothing could have prepared him for this. Attempting to compose himself, Freeman stood back from the Ground Generals, all of which were thankful that none of them were where Freeman was now,

Freeman: "M-my humble opinion matters not Master Masaki."

It was the first time in his life Freeman had ever stammered,

Freeman: "Warlord Tak'a-Tamen and yourself w-wish the Jedi taken care of, and I shall see that th-this is done.

"Ace," Kartion said, before jumping to the other side of the Dojo. Grinning, Kartion got in a defensive stance.

"Now, hit me." Kartion said, giving him the challenge gesture.

OOC: Major matrix scene coming up!
OOC: LOL! Shame on you for ripping it off. :p

IC:
"Alright, but I won't be easy!" I said. I ran up and attacked, punching for the face.

---

"I expected no less." Master Soloran said. "It is Force Healing, an extremely useful skill. Now, are you up for some blaster bolt blocking?"

He took out a training saber and a remote from his pockets.

Freeman froze. He suddenly felt as if his whole life flashed in front of him several times. His prior experiences had enabled him to hide his emotions, but nothing could have prepared him for this. Attempting to compose himself, Freeman stood back from the Ground Generals, all of which were thankful that none of them were where Freeman was now,

Freeman: "M-my humble opinion matters not Master Masaki."

It was the first time in his life Freeman had ever stammered,

Freeman: "Warlord Tak'a-Tamen and yourself w-wish the Jedi taken care of, and I shall see that th-this is done.
Master Masaki smiled a smile that was like poisoned honey. "But opinions do matter, my friend, and I'd like to hear yours. Peace be to you. I'm not going to choke you like Vader did. He was a fool to kill his own officers, even if they were incompetent. I would have merely broke them down to ensign."

Although I can't blame old asthma-breath, really.

Grinning, Kartion waited until the last second. He grabbed Daniel's fist, twisted it, making him spin into the air, and then punched him, sending him flying into the wall and denting it.

"Sure," he said with a nod.

E Z nodded.

"Then follow me..."

HK Followed after E Z.

Grinning, Kartion waited until the last second. He grabbed Daniel's fist, twisted it, making him spin into the air, and then punched him, sending him flying into the wall and denting it.
I groaned, but got back up. I went into a stance, and launched a side kick.

Kartion blocked it easily, and went on the offensive, and threw a few punches...

Master Masaki smiled a smile that was like poisoned honey. "But opinions do matter, my friend, and I'd like to hear yours. Peace be to you. I'm not going to choke you like Vader did. He was a fool to kill his own officers, even if they were incompetent. I would have merely broke them down to ensign."

Freeman relaxed slightly, but he had a VERY good feeling what Masaki was capable of,

Freeman: "If my master truely wishes to hear my opinions then I shall gladly oblige; It is my opinion master, that we cannot win against the Jedi. Since they have regained their power, it is likely that they would destroy us! I feel we are on a suicide mission to which there is no hope of returning."

He let out a deep breath as Masaki stood there,

Freeman: "I do not believe that we are truly serving Warlord Tak'a-Tamen by going on this fool's mission... with all due respect Master."

All the explosions in the hangar had knocked Kasandral off her feet. She got up, nursing a dozen small wounds and one large gash on her left arm. She looked around. It seemed as though the entire academy was in the hangar! Eamonn seemed to have aquired a master; they were practicing deflection. Looking at Eamonn, she got an idea. She would wait a while, keep attempting to become his friend, make the trip to Nar Shadaar as planned tomorrow, and then come back, claiming her parents were murdered while she was there. She would tell Eamonn that she knew no one who would come to the funeral with her, and that very few people would come anyway. She would ask him to accompany her, just for that day. She would ask Tak'a Tamen to pose as a mourner, and then he can take Eamonn. She retired to her dorm, hoping he would contact her and hear her plan...

OOC: I have to walk home, ill be on again in a few

All the explosions in the hangar had knocked Kasandral off her feet. She got up, nursing a dozen small wounds and one large gash on her left arm. She looked around.

Tak'a-Tamen's patience was as infinate as his lifespan. It would be a while before the Retalliation arrived at Yavin, so he decided to meditate. The Remnant officers were busy with their duties and would certainly never dare disturb him.

He focused his thoughts and noticed straight away that Kasandral was trying to contact him. Her powers were stronger than he realised if she was able to actually initiate contact. It was likely though that she wouldn't be aware of it either.

Tak'a-Tamen: "I hear your call Kasandral. What have you to report?"

Kartion blocked it easily, and went on the offensive, and threw a few punches...
I managed to block each one of the punches, as I'm still getting used to knowing the tricks of Teras Kasi. Knowing all the moves and using them are two different animals, I quickly realized.

----

Alex waved away the fears. "It is true that the Jedi have grown strong. However, they are not strong enough, for you have the power of the Dark Side by your side. Besides, massed fire works every time. A Jedi cannot block every blaster bolt that comes his way, as I well know. That is the main weakness, even though the Masters can block dozens. Another weakness is another Jedi, or a Sith in my and Tak'a-Tamen's case. Which is why I'm going to kill the Masters myself."

Alex's voice became sub-zero. "And you'll do well not to insult Tak'a-Tamen. He is not as forgiving as I am."

----

Master Elendil spied Kasandral. "Hello, Kasandral. I would like for you to come with me, please."

"Sure," he said with a nod.

Eamonn awaited Master Soloran's orders.

"Erik, stay here. You are safe in this room. I will be back here, later." said Lord JWolf as was put his duster on and getting the helmet for the bed.

"Will do, my lord." said Erik.

Lord JWolf walk out of his room and head down the hall.

Eamonn awaited Master Soloran's orders.
"Take this training saber. I will turn on the remote and you will block the bolts, ok?" Master Soloran said. "Remember, use the Force."

"Good Daniel, but you need to try harder. Try using combos, access the resesses of your mind and pull out some advanced moves!" Kartion shouted.

OOC: Goin' to bed.

"Ok," Eamonn said taking the training saber.

He held it up and got himself ready.

"Good Daniel, but you need to try harder. Try using combos, access the resesses of your mind and pull out some advanced moves!" Kartion shouted.

OOC: Goin' to bed.
"Right." I reached into my mind like he said, and smiled. I pulled out a combination of kicks and punches sure to help me.

---

The remote activated, and zoomed around quickly and randomly. It fired a low-powered shot at Eamonn's body.

Master Elendil spied Kasandral. "Hello, Kasandral. I would like for you to come with me, please."

OOC: She's asleep; talking to Tak'a Tamen. When she gets up you can talk to her though.

IC: Master...I have a new plan to capture Eamonn. I will go to Nar Shadaar tomorrow. When I come back I will tell Eamonn that they were killed while I was there. I will ask him to accompany me to the funeral, for it would be very sorrowful. You could pose as a mourner, a friend of my "parents". Then, when we arrive at the cemetary, you take him. May I attempt this plan?

Eamonn tried using the force and the training saber to block the shot.

While waiting for Master Tak'a Tamen to reply, she hears a knock at her door.((We'll say this is Elendil)) Swearing quietly, she walks to the door.
"Yes?"
"I am Master Elendil. Can I speak with you?"
"Er..sure. One second."
Kasandral unlatched the lock on her door and opened it.
"Do you wish to speak to me in here, or in your office?" Kasandral asked.

"Yes?"
"I am Master Elendil. Can I speak with you?"
"Er..sure. One second."
Kasandral unlatched the lock on her door and opened it.
"Do you wish to speak to me in here, or in your office?" Kasandral asked.
"In my office." Master Elendil said. He guided her to the office. "Now, as I hear it, you have been using Darkness on the pirates. Is this true?"

He stretched his feelings, watching carefully for lies.

Not realizing he would be able to detect a lie, she lied.
"Of course not, Master Elendil."

HK and E Z arrive!! YaY!!

OOC: For when you awake, Kartion.

"Hmm." Master Elendil detected the lie. "I'm afraid that one of my Jedi have seen you choked a pirate to death with the Force. Who is teaching you in the Dark Arts?"

"I am sorry for the lie, master. It is only that I do not wish to be expelled. I truly like it here. It is much better than home...I learned the grip when I was only 7 or 8 years old. It was...useful in what I used to do to...survive. I am terribly sorry, master." She lowers her head. A single tear trickles down her cheek. This is due to much practice.

"I am sorry for the lie, master. It is only that I do not wish to be expelled. I truly like it here. It is much better than home...I learned the grip when I was only 7 or 8 years old. It was...useful in what I used to do to...survive. I am terribly sorry, master." She lowers her head. A single tear trickles down her cheek. This is due to much practice.
"Be as it may, you have used the Dark Side on a life form. That is grounds for expulsion." Master Elendil sighed and crossed his arms. "You are to no longer interact with another student, not even the young boy Eamonn. Yes, I know you've been trying to get him to go somewhere. Why?"

"I simply wish to know someone. I know no one here, except Natalia, and her very little! Sure, I know people's names, but I don't know them. And besides...Eamonn's an interesting fellow. But I don't think restricting me will help this at all."
Inside, Kasandral was furious. The nerve of this man, to tell her that she would essentially be an exile of the academy!

"I simply wish to know someone. I know no one here, except Natalia, and her very little! Sure, I know people's names, but I don't know them. And besides...Eamonn's an interesting fellow. But I don't think restricting me will help this at all."
Inside, Kasandral was furious. The nerve of this man, to tell her that she would essentially be an exile of the academy!
OOC: He's an elf, lol.

Elendil's eyes glared disappointedly as he concentrated on the girl's future. "Your fate is this if you continue down the dark path: you will be consumed by your own darkness, and slain by a former friend of yours. The late Master Yoda said it best: 'Once you travel down the dark path, forever it will dominate your destiny'. Do not make the mistake of thinking you can just step off the path, for it will be a long, hard journey back up, if ever you can get back up."

Tak'a-Tamen left a message in Kasandral's dreams, knowing that she would hear it the next time she sleeps,

Tak'a-Tamen: "You have done well my young apprentice. Your plan exceeds my expectations of you. You may attempt this plan and I shall be ready for Eamonn. Be advised, the Jedi will become occupied shortly. For Remant forces will be at Yavin soon."

"Very well. May I be excused now? I was sleeping when you came."
Kasandral was barely able to restrain herself. She wanted nothing more than to jump at Elendil and slice his throat with her rapier. But that would not do any good. So she didn't.

Lord JWolf gets to hanger and looks at all of the pirates there. Some were dead and the other are not.

Then walk up to the pirates' ship.

OOC:Core, Can I go inside?

On the bridge of the Retalliation, Captain Freeman was pondering his fate as Alex Masaki's words kept rolling around his head, 'And you'll do well not to insult Tak'a-Tamen. He is not as forgiving as I am.' His distraction was interrupted by the helmsman,

Helmsman: "Captain Freeman! We are approaching the Yavin system sir. We will arrive in 10 minutes!"

Freeman composed himself,

Freeman: "Very well, prepare to drop out of hyperspace..."

His sentence was interrupted when the comms officer spoke,

Comms: "Captain Freeman sir! Warlord Tak'a-Tamen commands Master Masaki to make contact with him!"

Freeman: "Very good. Call Master Masaki and inform him!"

Comms: "Yes sir!"

OOC: Do they know my room #? How will Kasandral be safe from the attack? Will she?

OOC: Do they know my room #? How will Kasandral be safe from the attack? Will she?


OOC: All will be revealed when Alex Masaki answers Tak'a-Tamen's call.

"Very well. May I be excused now? I was sleeping when you came."
Kasandral was barely able to restrain herself. She wanted nothing more than to jump at Elendil and slice his throat with her rapier. But that would not do any good. So she didn't.
"No. You are a danger to the others. Master Rydo here will escort you offplanet."

A shimmering in the Force revealed a woman in her mid-40s. Her illusion skills are very powerful, and she wields a golden-yellow lightsaber. "Come with me."

OOC: Go ahead, Wolf.

On the bridge of the Retalliation, Captain Freeman was pondering his fate as Alex Masaki's words kept rolling around his head, 'And you'll do well not to insult Tak'a-Tamen. He is not as forgiving as I am.' His distraction was interrupted by the helmsman,

Comms: "Captain Freeman sir! Warlord Tak'a-Tamen commands Master Masaki to make contact with him!"

Freeman: "Very good. Call Master Masaki and inform him!"

Comms: "Yes sir!"

Tak'a-Tamen. What is it? Alex asked.

"What?! No! Please...I won't do it again....I...I see my mistake! Please! Let me stay..." *More tears*

"What?! No! Please...I won't do it again....I...I see my mistake! Please! Let me stay..." *More tears*
"No." Master Elendil said, his words as firm and harsh as space itself. "You are exiled from the Jedi Order, and you will no longer be considered a Jedi, until we consider you able to face the Dark Side with a clean heart. Now, go."

Both Masters felt a growing darkness in the girl, and prepared to restrain her if necessary.

As she was escorted out of the room, she continued to sob (Real tears now)and plead. "Please....I'm sorry.....please...no...don't make me go...."

As she was escorted out of the room, she continued to sob (Real tears now)and plead. "Please....I'm sorry.....please...no...don't make me go...."
"I sorry, my dear, but it is for your own good." Master Rydo said as she walked the girl to the hangar bay.

Tak'a-Tamen. What is it? Alex asked.


Tak'a-Tamen: "To remind you that my apprentice, Kasandral is on Yavin. See that no harm comes to her. You will know who she is."

The tone in his voice was very hard and cold. Although it was a short message, Tak'a-Tamen never did anything unnessesserily. He always wanted to make sure that his instructions were very clear.

His image faded away as the helmsman spoke,

Helmsman: "We are entering the Yavin system captain!"

The Retalliation slowed from hyperspace as it approached Yavin IV. Immediately, Tie-fighters began pouring out of the launchbay and towards the planet...

Kasandral slumps with hopelessness as she is dragged along the corridors to the hangar. Everything she had done was for nothing. Master Tak'a Tamen would be furious...if she ever saw him or anyone else again. And Natalia...they never had had that rematch. And, lastly, she would never be considered a true jedi. She knew little about the force as it was...but that was all she would learn, it seemed. She sobbed all the way to Rydo's ship.

OOC: This is like a huge climax. Its like a movie. Camera is on Kasandral in slow motion, as she sobs and begs. Then it is on the fighters in slow motion, as they streak towards the planet. I can almost hear the sad music in the background.

OOC: Very emotional. Sounds vaguely similar to the bit where Han Solo is frozen in carbonite in Empire Strikes Back; Sad but evil... (or something)

Hey Coreworlds, can I assume Yavin has orbital defenses?

Having blocked it, Eamonn waited.

OOC: Maybe Eamonn sees Kasandral being drug through the halls in tears?

I gotta go...ill try to get on later

OOC: I'm gonna go for tonight at the climax of incoming enemy fighters and Kasandral being expelled. Goodnight :)

OOC: Yes. A MC80 Star Cruiser, a couple of corvettes and several squadrons of X-wings, plus laser cannons and a shield on the ground.

IC:
"Now, I will give you provisions so you can survive." Master Rydo said, giving her enough credits to last a little while. "Where do you wish to go?"

-----

"Right." Master Masaki said. He looked out of the Star Destroyer bridge windows, the transparisteel reflecting his old face and evil demeanor.

Commander Nick Selored of the X-wing squadrons had his jaws drop when the Impstar came in. "Red Alert! Red alert! Impstar sighted, TIE fighters launching!"

"Right!" The MC80 Republic Star's captain ordered the ship to meet the Star Destroyer in a challenge. "Imperial Star Destroyer, stand down or be destroyed!"

The corvettes and fighters flew ahead to meet the TIE fighters.

Having blocked it, Eamonn waited.
The remote continues to zoom randomly and shoot it's lasers.

Eamonn tried his best to block the rest of them, he was getting the hang of using Force Block.

Lord JWolf gets to hanger and looks at all of the pirates there. Some were dead and the other are not.

Then walk up to the pirates' ship.

OOC:Core, Can I go inside?

Lord JWolf put the helmet on and push a few button by the ship door.

The door open and he walk in slowing into the ship.

He heading for the bridge, to find a map of the ship. He got there and open the door.

A blaster shot flew by his head. Dumb pirates. said Lord JWolf in his hand as he active his lightsaber and cut the pirate's head off.

He found a panel and push a few button then a map of the ship came up. He download it on a data pad. The cargo holds is where I will go first. thought Lord JWolf. He heading for the cargo holds.

Kasandral slumps with hopelessness as she is dragged along the corridors to the hangar. Everything she had done was for nothing. Master Tak'a Tamen would be furious...if she ever saw him or anyone else again. And Natalia...they never had had that rematch. And, lastly, she would never be considered a true jedi. She knew little about the force as it was...but that was all she would learn, it seemed. She sobbed all the way to Rydo's ship.

As Odcal walked out of the hanger, he saw Kasandral being dragged towards it. I wonder what happened. Is she the one who was using Force Choke? Odcal went into his room and deposited his recently attained blaster into his chest. He examined the current objects inside. There was his staff, a hologram of his family, his transmitter, the new blaster, and the mysterious sealed, unopenable box. He took that out and examined it. He could tell it was a box because it was filled with an item and packed rather loosely with cotton. He put it away, took out his staff and headed to the dueling room to practice.

OOC:Now that Eammon has a master I'm the only guy left without one! I feel so alone...........

Lord JWolf stop in front of the cargo hold A door. He take to open the door but he need a code. After looking at that the data pad, he found the code. He put the code in to open the door. The door slide open and he show crates of food. I will tell the council about this. thought Lord JWolf as he turn around and faced cargo hold B.

He then enter the code for cargo hold B and the door slide open. He walk in and saw Trade Federation droideka & storm trooper armor & lots of guns. There 25 droideka and maybe 100 storm trooper armor. I need to talk to the council, now. thought Lord JWolf. The he shut the doors and locked them both. He headed back outside.

He got outside of the ship and locked the door. Take has helmet off and then head towards the council cambers.

After a few mins. have passed, Lord JWolf is at the door of the council cambers. Then he knocks on the door.

Master Elendil perked up. "Come in, Lord JWolf."

OOC: Sorry all this is OOC. I'm posting here for the last time, though. I have too much crap going on right now. While I use NS as an escape from that, I have no drive to do an RP that does not involve a big ass war. So, I'm leaving.

About Banak... after the pirate battle, he goes missing, his quarters are cleaned out of everything but the crates of weapons(which are a bit emptier though) and one of the Academy shuttles leaves without autorization. It'd be found adrift and empty in orbit of one of Yavin's other moons.

Doing that so I can come back later if I get a chance. Plus, I don't trust any of you to RP my characters. lol

Master Elendil perked up. "Come in, Lord JWolf."

"Master Elendil, I have got some info on the pirates ship." said Lord JWolf heads a datapad to Master Elendil.

"Is food in cargo hold A and 25 droidekas & maybe 100 storm trooper armor & lots of guns in cargo hold B," said Lord JWolf, "Maybe will can use some of it. I don't know if any more pirates are on the ship."

Michael Miles, in the Hanger repairing a blaster hole, sees Kasandral leaving and says to the Masters around her, "What is happening?" The Masters explain to him the situation and he says, "Let me go with her. I don't want to leave a lady unprotected. Call me old-fashioned, call me Southern, but I can't leave her like this. I'll make sure she returns to the light."

---------------------------
At the Council chambers, David waits and injects himself with some more adrenaline. They finally get to him and he says, "I'd like to talk to y'all about me taking on a student. I've noticed that Odcal is the only student without a master, and I'm the only master without a student. I would like to know how you feel on me taking on a Padawan."

"Hmm." Master Rydo pursed her lips in thought and smiled. "Your chivalry has touched my heard. Very well. You can go with her, provided you be on your guard if she continues the path downward."

I've noticed that Odcal is the only student without a master, and I'm the only master without a student. I would like to know how you feel on me taking on a Padawan."
"Approved." Master Elendil smiled. "Yes, you would be a great Master to young Odcal. Train him well, and may the Force be with you."

Then the elven Jedi turned to JWolf. "Hmm. Interesting. I charge you in reprogramming the droidekas to protect the grounds. I sense that there is something going on in space right now. Someone familiar is coming..."

Eamonn continued his Force Block training, he could feel himself getting better at it.

Then the elven Jedi turned to JWolf. "Hmm. Interesting. I charge you in reprogramming the droidekas to protect the grounds. I sense that there is something going on in space right now. Someone familiar is coming..."

"Will do, Master. I will have my people reprogram them. They can have them reprogrammed in 20 mins or less." said Lord JWolf as bow then turn around to head back to the hanger. On commlink "Have four men meet me at the pirates ship." On the other end of the commlink "Yes, my lord."

After a few mins, Lord JWolf and four men are at the door of the pirates ship. Lord JWolf put the helmet back on. “Welcome aboard, guy. The cargo holds are this way.” said Lord JWolf. The men head toward the cargo hold. They get there and Lord JWolf enters the code. The door slide up and Lord JWolf say "There they are. Now reprogram them." The men said "Yes, my lord." The men start working. They will be done in 20 mins or less.

Odcal stopped training and headed out of the room. He peeked through classrooms and noticed something very funny. Banak's classroom seemed to be very empty. Odcal walked to Banak's quarters. They were empty as well. Huh. All his personal stuff seems to be missing. Merely a weapons store left. Ah well. Banak is so crazy he probably ran off somewhere and will reappear all of a sudden in a week or two. Odcal walked to his room and practiced moving things with the Force.

Eamonn continued his Force Block training, he could feel himself getting better at it.
After about a half-hour, Master Soloran could see the boy getting better. "Good, good. I would like you to stop now, so you can rest. I will give you more training before bed tonight."

Every three mins. two droidekas roll out of the ship. After 20 mins, all droidekas have been reprogrammed and had the weapons and sheild upgrade. The 100 storm trooper armor have been load on to one of the Corsair Pinnaces in the hanger. "Men, get a blaster and check the whole ship out." order Lord JWolf. The men answer "Yes, my lord." Lord JWolf head to the door that goes to the hanger.

He got outside of the ship and took his helmet off. He lock the door into the ship then head back to the Council chambers.

After few mins, he got to the door and knocks.

Natalia zoomed back in to Yavin IV low in a small sky-sloop. Very elegant, very fast... very hard to control.

"Computer! Level us out!"
"I'd prefer if you called me Eddie. Altitude 50 000 meters and falling."
"FINE! EDDIE, will you level us out?"
"Do it yourself, you didn't say the magic word. Altitude 45 000 meters and falling."
"Sithspit, I CAN'T do it, I don't know HOW to do it. I'm not a pilot. Now pull us out or we'll both DIE!"
"That would be a pity, wouldn't it. Altitude 40 000 meters and falling."
"Do it, com... I mean Eddie!"
"I'm waiting...Altitude 35 000 meters and falling."
"Fine... pull us out PLEASE?"
"That wasn't so hard, was it? Altitude 30 000 meters"
"But we're still falling."
"Yes... well, that's because I'm not actually sure I like you any more than I liked my last owner. 25 000 meters"
"You contacted me. Through channels. "You got me to steal you. "You said I was pretty and had nice hair."
"You are and you do. But nevertheless (20 000 meters) I'm not sure I want anyone to own me any more. I'd prefer to commit suicide (15 000 meters). I heard once that that is the greatest form of self expression."
"Son of the SITH, I'll GIVE you yourselve, just level us out!"
*Silence*
"Do you actually mean that?"
"Of course! PLEASE!"
"But what would I do with myself? Altitude 10 000 meters and falling."
"I don't know. You could... get a job as a passenger ship. Become a world famous Sabacc player. Whatever you want."
"Sounds a little nebulous to me. 5000 meters."
"Please? We can always work out the details later."
"2500 meters."
And if you don't like them, you can just crash yourself some other time."
"True... oh, have it your way." The ship leveled out at the last moment, scraping past some trees, and came to a top over a landing pad. Slowly, majestically, it drifted down on repulsorlifts. "The things I do for you, Natalia."
"Thanks Eddie."

Every three mins. two droidekas roll out of the ship. After 20 mins, all droidekas have been reprogrammed and had the weapons and sheild upgrade. The 100 storm trooper armor have been load on to one of the Corsair Pinnaces in the hanger. "Men, get a blaster and check the whole ship out." order Lord JWolf. The men answer "Yes, my lord." Lord JWolf head to the door that goes to the hanger.

He got outside of the ship and took his helmet off. He lock the door into the ship then head back to the Council chambers.

After few mins, he got to the door and knocks.
"Door's always open, Lord JWolf." Master Elendil smiled as the man was allowed entry. "You finished reprogramming and activating the droids, I presume?"

"Door's always open, Lord JWolf." Master Elendil smiled as the man was allowed entry. "You finished reprogramming and activating the droids, I presume?"

"It something I always do and yes. My people have finished reprogranning and had time to upgrade their weapons and sheilds, Master Elendil." said Lord JWolf.

"It something I always do and yes. My people have finished reprogranning and had time to upgrade their weapons and sheilds, Master Elendil." said Lord JWolf.
"Good. How fares Erik?"

"Good. How fares Erik?"

"He is good will the Force and can use a lightsaber like a Jedi Knight." said Lord JWolf.

"He is good will the Force and can use a lightsaber like a Jedi Knight." said Lord JWolf.
"Really. I think I will have to test him sometime." Master Elendil smiled.

"Really. I think I will have to test him sometime." Master Elendil smiled.

"Its up to you. Remember, he trained for a year with my master. He will be in my room, now. After this pirate attack, I don't like the fact he would be in the dorm and I would in all the way in the guest hall, master." said Lord JWolf.

"Its up to you. Remember, he trained for a year with my master. He will be in my room, now. After this pirate attack, I don't like the fact he would be in the dorm and I would in all the way in the guest hall, master." said Lord JWolf.
"Don't worry. He'll be safe with the Jedi around." Armas said.

"Don't worry. He'll be safe with the Jedis around." Armas said.

"Not to be rude but I have going to check on Erik then head back to the pirates ship, master. Have some Jedis meet me at the ship to inload the food. My people said the food is ok." said Lord JWolf as he bows to the Jedi Masters and head out of the Council chambers.

After few mins later, Lord JWolf walk into his room. He saw Erik a sleep on the bed. He put the helmet back on he top shelf. Then he got a bottle of "Coke Cola" out of his case and walk out of his room, heading back to the hanger.

A couple of Jedi were sent to help with the food crates.

A couple of Jedi were sent to help with the food crates.

Lord JWolf makes it to the hanger and see the Jedis pushing the food crates for the ship. Then walk aboard the ship and head for the bridge.

OOC: Going to bed.

As Natalia stepped out of the starship, she heard Eddie's irritating voice echo out "Don't stay out too long. I want you to be home by 11. AT THE LATEST." She rolled her eyes and continued down the steps onto the tarmac, but stopped as she saw the battle damage.

"What happened?"

After about a half-hour, Master Soloran could see the boy getting better. "Good, good. I would like you to stop now, so you can rest. I will give you more training before bed tonight."

"Thank you Master," Eamonn said, lowering the training saber.

As Natalia stepped out of the starship, she heard Eddie's irritating voice echo out "Don't stay out too long. I want you to be home by 11. AT THE LATEST." She rolled her eyes and continued down the steps onto the tarmac, but stopped as she saw the battle damage.

"What happened?"
A Jedi Padawan came to her. "Pirates. They tried to attack the academy, but they failed." No further word needed.

Commander Nick Selored of the X-wing squadrons had his jaws drop when the Impstar came in. "Red Alert! Red alert! Impstar sighted, TIE fighters launching!"

"Right!" The MC80 Republic Star's captain ordered the ship to meet the Star Destroyer in a challenge. "Imperial Star Destroyer, stand down or be destroyed!"

The corvettes and fighters flew ahead to meet the TIE fighters.


Freeman: "Shields up! Gunnery Sergant, target the cruiser and open fire!

As the wall of TIE-fighters swarmed ever closer to the X-wing squadrons, the Retalliation let loose it's arsenal of laser fire and missles, which homed in on the cruiser. The surrounding space was lit up as the opposing fighters engaged each other. Like glow worms in a dark forest, the battle illuminated the skys above Yavin.

On the bridge of the Retalliation, Captain Freeman watched in a perverse delight as the battle ensued,

Freeman: "We are focusing the enemy's attention onto us Master. In a few moments, we will be able to land the small garrison on the planet WITHOUT the Jedi's knowledge."

Freeman turned to face Master Masaki,

Freeman: "Will you be going down Master?"

"Are the weapons online?" said Lord JWolf in the bridge of the pirates ship.

"Yes, my lord." said one of the men.

"Good. Have the other systems online." said Lord JWolf.

"Yes, my lord." said one of the men.

The Jedi already know... Master Masaki smiled. "Yes, I will. It'll be a pleasure to finally meet my grandson.

-----

The MC80 opened fire with it's red turbolasers and concussion missiles at the Star Destroyer, interposing itself between the enemy and the moon. It sent a warning down to the moon, and Master Elendil ordered laser cannons to activate, and the shield to be put up.

"Attention, everyone. A Star Destroyer has begun to attack Yavin IV. Prepare to defend the Academy." The PA announced.

"What?" Eamonn gasped.

A star destroyer? This didn't sound good. First pirates now this. The young boy headed off to find the others.

"All system are online, my lord." said one of the man.

"Good." said Lord JWolf. On commlink "Master Elendil, my people have the pirates ship ready for you. Plus, watch over Erik for me. I'm go hunting."

Erik, head to Master Elendil. Have your lghtsaber with you. said Lord JWolf to Erik only using his mind. Erik got up and took his lightsaber then ran towards where Master Elendil is.

"I will see you later, then." Master Elendil replied to Lord JWolf. Soon after, Erik came in the office. "Erik. Round up the apprentices and head into the forests. We'll use the jungles as cover."

Kartion hit the wall hard...

"Ouch! Good little dude, you can fig..." Kartion drifted off, and his eyes sharpened. Cursing, he looked at Daniel.

"We have a big problem. I'm afraid, we're going to jack out...sorry..." Kartion apologised, before closing his eyes. A few seconds later, everything went dark, and the rollercoaster went backwards in slow motion...

Upon returning to the real world, I heard the alarms blare again. "What now?!"

Then the PA system alerted to us to the presence of Imperials. Imperials? Here?

I sighed. "Looks like we'll have to do something about them when they land. Can you reach my dad?"

Kartion shook his head.

"There's nothing he can do. I'm afraid we're stuck for the moment little dude. However, ready yer sabre, we have a few targets coming up..." he said.

I grabbed my lightsaber with the Force and sighed. "You probably didn't know, but I was kinda shook up when I had to kill that pirate. You know it was the first time I killed...and now, it looks like I may have to do it again."

Kartion grinned.

"We all go through it. But it gets easier every time. Trust me, I know." Kartion said, before patting Daniel on the shoulder.

"Lets make a deal. You deflect the blaster bolts, I take them down...deal?" Kartion asked.

"Yeah, I guess." I said.

"I will see you later, then." Master Elendil replied to Lord JWolf. Soon after, Erik came in the office. "Erik. Round up the apprentices and head into the forests. We'll use the jungles as cover."

"Yes, master." said Erik as he ran out of the door looking for the apprentices.

OOC: Need some one to have Erik run into.

The pirate ship took off out of the hanger and flew over the grounds.

OOC: *Volunteers*

IC:

Eamonn was running along the hallways looking for the others. He didn't notice Erik until it was too late and they ran into each other.

"Sorry," he apoligised as he got back up again.

OOC: *Volunteers*

IC:

Eamonn was running along the hallways looking for the others. He didn't notice Erik until it was too late and they ran into each other.

"Sorry," he apoligised as he got back up again.

"Eamonn, sorry about that. Master Elendil said to find the other apprentices and head into the forests. Follow me." said Erik

"Ok," Eamonn nodded, before following him. "Do you know whats going on? I only heard something about a star destroyer."

Kasandral looked at the man who had offered to go with her. Why would he do such a thing? Rydo was inside her ship, prepping the engines. As Kasandral was escorted by Michael onto the ship, klaxons began blaring. More pirates...? Kasandral wondered. No...something else. I'll sleep in the ship...get in touch with Master Tak'a Tamen. Find out what is going on. As Kasandral sat in a seat in the ship, she looked out a window. A lone figure had just entered the hangar. Natalia! She was back! Then Kasandral remembered her predicament. She had just stopped crying. Now she cried again, but softer this time. She leaned against the window as she cried. She soon, somehow, fell asleep.

While she slept she heard Master Tak'a Tamen's words. ....The imperial remnant....Yavin IV... Kasandral woke with a start. Not pirates! Imperials! And they will not realize I'm on this ship...they'll kill all of us!....but I can't just leave...nor can I tell them...warn them. They expel me for being who I am...for being curious...for being better than them! But looking out the window at Natalia, Kasandral knew she was wrong. And yet, she did not speak a word to Rydo or the man who sat beside her. She would not help them...she couldn't help them. They would not believe her...they saw her as a liar. No...Kasandral would remain silent, all the way to her almost certain death...shot down by the Remnant.

OOC: That's just how Kas feels...please don't kill her off...she adds some emotion to the rp...lol

"Ok," Eamonn nodded, before following him. "Do you know whats going on? I only heard something about a star destroyer."

"I think it is Dark Jedi or something." said Erik.

"Shit," Eamonn swore. "Thats not good if it is the Dark Jedi."

"Shit," Eamonn swore. "Thats not good if it is the Dark Jedi."

"I know." said Erik as they were running in the hall.

"So what happens when we find the others?" Eamonn asked, running along side him.

"Well, today is your lucky day." Master Rydo said neutrally. "We'll have to take you away after this invasion is over."

Kuzar had somehow missed all the action. He had been walking all over the Academy, but hadn't really paid any attention to, well, anything. He saw that the people he saw were rather distraught, but he didn't care. He could hear talk about some pirates and whatnot, yet he did not care. He had begun thinking about leaving this place, since staying seemed rather pointless...

Pointless, yes. The Jedi had their own problems. Problems that did not matter to him all that much. Whilst he was a member of the Jedi Order now, he was just a Padawan. No one really cared of him. He was just passing by, after all.

But then he saw two people who were talking about something as they ran past him. He could hear one of them mention two words... Two words that made him feel uneasy.

"-- Dark Jedi."

He chose to run after them, even if just to find out what the hell was going on. He just got interested in what was happening around him.

Erik looked over his right shoulder and saw Kuzar. He keep run and was doing what Master told him to do.

Being somewhat older than the two running before him - and knowing more of the Force than he had admitted to - it did not take too long for him to reach them. He could sense their most outward thoughts.

"What's going on here? Are we evacuating or something?"

"What's going on here? Are we evacuating or something?"

An attack by a star destroyer. I'm on a mission. Master Elendil said to find the other apprentices and head into the forests. Just follow us. said Erik to Kuzar.

Eamonn took a quick look over his shoulder at Kuzar as they ran down the hallways. He had no idea where they were heading and hoped Erik did.

He grinned as he nodded and ran with the two. He wasn't an apprentice, but running to the woods sounded much better than staying here. Survival is key.

A Star Destroyer? Curiouser and curiouser...

The three Jedis run out of the academy and into the wood. Then they wait for the other to get there.

Kartion gritted his teeth.

"They're getting closer...but the students are escaping..." Kartion said, in deep thought, almost describing images.

Kartion gritted his teeth.

"They're getting closer...but the students are escaping..." Kartion said, in deep thought, almost describing images.
"That's what we should be doing," I said. "What are we going to do anyway?"

"Escape in the exact opposite direction." Kartion said.

"This can't be coincidence Daniel. The remnant are after you. If we go a different route, there are two possibilities. One: The remnant go after the large party, and we escape on my ship, hidden nearby. Or two: We get discovered, while the others escape. Either way, it's going to be tough, but I'm hoping for option two."

"Why two?" I wondered.

The three Jedis run out of the academy and into the wood. Then they wait for the other to get there.

"So we just wait?" Eamonn asked.

"So we just wait?" Eamonn asked.

"Yeah. We will use the woods as a cover." said Erik.

"Because I get to kill some Imperials, and the other Padawans, that aren't as well trained as you, will be more likely to escape safely." Kartion replied.

"Besides, because I'm teaching you, you're better than them anyway." he added with a smirk.

"Because I get to kill some Imperials, and the other Padawans, that aren't as well trained as you, will be more likely to escape safely." Kartion replied.

"Besides, because I'm teaching you, you're better than them anyway." he added with a smirk.
"Yeah, that's true." I said. Though can't let it get into my head.

The Republic Star and it's escorts were getting severely damaged. The Mon Calamari captain had a choice: flee or die. He choose to flee. The MC80 Star Cruiser continued to fight, but this time, it made for an exit path. It would get to Coruscant, to send help. The corvettes were heavily damaged and couldn't get out, so they blew apart under a barrage of turbolasers.

The way was clear for the stormtrooper shuttles, but for the X-wings. Half still fought on.

"Right," Eamonn said, he checked his sword at his side. There was something uneasy about being in the forest with Dark Jedi attacking.

The pirate ship flew above the acadmeny waiting for the Imperial Shuttles to come.

"Gunners to your stations." said Lord JWolf. The gunners heed for their stations.

"C'mon, we should go..." Kartion said.

"Right," Eamonn said, he checked his sword at his side. There was something uneasy about being in the forest with Dark Jedi attacking.

Erik puts a blaster rifle for his robe and aim it at the door.

I readied my lightsaber for action.

The 25 droidekas roll to the hanger bay's door.

The other Blood Wolf type robots move in behind them.

Kuzar listened to the two talk, and chose to participate in the discussion.

"Well, I think it'd be better if we actually tried to hide ourselves instead of just waiting here for something to happen. You know, you could always jump up and show yourself to whoever we're waiting for. We'd draw less attention, too, I think. I doubt those who're attacking are too stupid to not realize that we'd flee to the forest."

For a moment, he scanned the surroundings with his eyes. Nothing. Good.

"Hell, if I was the one attacking, I would bet much on the fact that the enemy would flee instead of trying to defend a place they know is going to fall, even if it means that if everything went wrong, they'd have to fight in a place they lose their advantage. Which happens to be what we're doing."

Erik move back behind a huge rock and waited for the attackers.

Checking the coast was clear, Kartion went out into the corridor.

"C'mon, it's clear Daniel..." Kartion said, gesturing.

OOC: Waiting for Earth Defense now...

Eamonn went and hid behind some thick bushes. He readied himself for any eventuality.

Checking the coast was clear, Kartion went out into the corridor.

"C'mon, it's clear Daniel..." Kartion said, gesturing.

OOC: Waiting for Earth Defense now...

Erik could tell that Daniel was with Kartion. He is safe. said Erik to himself.

OOC: Me, too.

Kuzar sighed. They didn't listen. Apparently the Jedi didn't really care much about living.

"...Or we can take our chances and wait for the attackers. Yeah, that's always a choice. Just say when the enemy comes. Or I guess I'll hear the blaster shots by then..."

He walked behind some pile of rocks and sat down. He began fiddling with his lightsaber. He'd be ready when the enemy would come. Didn't really matter what he did.

Damn it.

The Starhead exited hyperspace, Konas looked ahead, seeing the gas planet Yavin, he turned for the little speck that was Yavin 4.
He pulled out his radio, and tried in.
"This is Konas Amst, is anywhere there?" He asked.

The exchange of fire between the Retalliation and the Republic cruiser was fierce. The Star Destroyer's shields were buckling under the instense attack by close range fighters.

Captain Freeman felt the impacts of the blasts, as did the rest of the crew.

Tactical: "Sir! Enemy fighters are breaking through the outer perimeter!"

Freeman: "Intensify the forward batteries, I don't want anthing to get through!"

The Retalliation's anti-fighter turrets roared into life once again, like an injured animal that lashes out to protect itself. Three X-wings had taken a position ready to destroy the shield generator, but they were atomised instantly.

Tactical: "Captain! We have cleared a path for the landing craft."

Freeman: "Begin landing the ground trooops. Have TIE-Interceptor wings one through twelve escort the landing craft."

A protective wall of laser fire went ahead of the landing craft as they headed towards Yavin, and straight to the Jedi academy. They would land in moments.

"Gunners, fire at the shuttles as the show up." order Lord JWolf.

OOC: Kartion, ffs, i cant post untill you bloody post, reboot E Z already.

There is, in nature the fact that one small insect can be no threat. But should there be a swarm of thousands, then it is considered a plague and defies the belief that 'bigger is more powerful'. The Empire had adopted the philosophy and as such, were able to use high numbers of small fighters in large engagements. The philosophy applies also to the Remnant Stormtroopers who were heading in large numbers of small ships to the planet surface.

On the Retalliation, Freeman watched as the landing craft rode the rapids of blaster fire and explosions to the planet surface.

Tactical: "Sir, our landing craft are encountering heavy resistance from some kind of modified cargo ship."

Freeman: "Get TIE-fighter wings seven and eight to reinforce the escort!"

The battle was still going strong in space as a group of TIE-fighters formed up and headed to the planet.

"Commander, stormtrooper transports pouring out!"

"Damn, there sure are a lot of them." The commander of the X-wings said. "Ok, new mission. We take as many out as we can!"

"Yes, sir!"

The 18 remaining fighters (The MC80 carried 36) switched from attacking the Star Destroyer to making runs on the stormtrooper transports. 9 fighters attacked the Interceptors while the other 9, including the Commander, went after the transports, shooting at them with laser cannons or proton torpedoes.

"Fire at will." order Lord JWolf.

Lasers & proton torpedoes are fired for the pirate ship at the shuttles.

Tactical: "Captain, the remaining enemy fighters have broken off and are attacking our landing craft!"

Freeman studied the tactical display, his mind was racing trying to stay one step ahead of the enemy.

Freeman: "What's our status?"

Engineering: "We are at 86% efficiency. There is moderate damage to subsystems but we can still maneuver."

Freeman turned to Master Masaki,

Freeman: "Master. I humbly submit that now is the time for you and your garrison to transfer to the surface. Enemy forces are totally preoccupied with our 'diversion'."

Kasandral heard Rydo's words dimly. They slowly sunk in. I get to stay until the attack is over...I get to stay! Then Master Tak'a Tamen or the other one under him will come for me. I can escape!
Kasandral lifted her eyes to look at Rydo.
"Can I...help with the fight then? I...I won't use the grip. I promise. So...May I?"
OOC: So is this attack the conclusion of the RP? I hope not...this was really neat.

Michael called to Kasandral, "Come on! Get in the back seat of this V-Wing! I need a RIO! Come on! You have a better chance of living this way." He was suiting up as he said this. He had already got out her a flight suit.

-----------------------------------
David, in the Council Chamber, left to find Odcal and get him to the turbolazers and disruptor cannons. Their would be a good chance to both save the academy and bond.

Damn! If I go with him they won't find me! I musn't go...
Kasandral eyed the flight suit, feigning fear.
"I...I would r-rather stay....I mean....I would like to help on the g-ground. I don't like...space battles. Do you mind if I...s-stay? Please? I...I've never been very...good at...targeting and...such...anyways. So...will you let me stay?"

Michael insists, "Look. If I don't have a back seater, more than likely I'll be killed. If you help me, somehow I feel that both of will live to fight another day."

"Good. Have your best pilots form up on me." Master Masaki said, and walked to his shuttle in the hangar bay. Soon, it is out of the bay, and it began to fire at the the nearest X-wing pilot. The young Bothan never had a chance against the Dark Side and died explosively.

"What was that?" the wingman said, and she, too died to Master Masaki's lasers.

"Damn! We got a Dark Jedi here!" One pilot panicked, and he tried to make a run to hyperspace.

"Mantain formation!" The commander ordered, and the fighters barely managed to hold.

Kasandral thought about it.
"Only if I can sleep on the way up. I doubt I could do anything tired."
