El Conado,a Zactarn Prime colony,is currently being faced with an extremely deadly epidemic. Zactarn Prime had sent a transport full of medicine and equipment, but on the way they were intercepted by a Space Raider Ship that just immediatly opened fire. The transport only had 2 small laser rays on the front of it so they began to fire back. The Space Raider ship had decent size and powerful laser cannons but it's defence was no better if even equal to a tie-fighters. Every shot landed by the transport hit the ship hard but after maybe 20 shots to the transport it's sheilds were fully inactive.

The transport fired back in a fury hurting the Space Raider ship badly but the size kept it together and running. The Space Raiders fired one last fully charged laser cannon shot that smacked the hull of the transport hard. It began to fall heading straight for the asteroid belt below. They sent out one final distress warning stating what had just happened. The transport blew compltely because of the medicine and equipment inside. Darth Vaclavious infuriated with the recent happening immediatly sent out a ship to trace it and confront it but it was too late it was gone.

Darth Vaclavicious snarled. Terrible! Terrible! We Must Destroy Those Pirates! And while we're at it, we'll destroy ALL pirates! Send for another transport, and we'll have an escort for that transport!

The 'Space Raider' was an old YT-1300 modified to carry a single light turbolaser in place of the normal dorsal turret, the turbolaser taking up all the cargo space and the place normally reserved for the vertical turret. The ship was damaged badly, the twin blaster cannon on the transport blowing several holes in the hull. As it limped toward the hyper limit on the unnamed system it sent out one signal, then silently cruiser forward.

OOC: Darth Vaclavious wouldn't say that he would always put his country first and he would send an escort with the other dhip yes but not kill all pirates.

"Why didn't our sensors or our sattelites pick up any energy readings from the Space Raiders ship?"

"Well Lord Vaclavious maybe they had on an energentical cloak."

"Damn you squire it was rhetorical. Besides that medicine needs to get to El Conado send another transport and accompany it with a Clagwire Cruiser and 2 tie-fighters that disease must be cured it's killing my poor civillians like flies."

"Right away sire."

Had anyone survived they would have noted something odd about the YT-1300, it was painted black with crimson trim. Once it hit the hyperlimit it stayed there, waiting to see if something else would come through the system. Though it had not needed it last time, with simply an unescorted transport, a Imperator Mk I Star Destroyer lay no more then five minutes away by hyperspace. If anything came throught he system on the way to El Conada they were to distract it long enough for the SD to get there. They sat of the hyperlimit as to make sure that they could get away, something that was very important to the people aboard the YT-1300.

OOC:Dude not to be rude but it's El Conado.

IC: The Clagwire Cruiser had fully charged it's Sith Synthisizing Ray as soon as they got off the ground. The tie-fighters were circling around the 2 ships at high speeds making sure almost no shot could've gotten through. The transport ship had turned on it's sheilds along with the Clagwire Cruiser but at that moment a Vandarious X 193,a Vespir, and a Challenger came out of the docking zone and joined them. They were flying through space no farther then maybe 40 miles away from the planet when a laser cut through the air or lack there off.

OOC: Appearently the Blood of the Fold were sold bad maps, because all their maps list it as El Conada <.< >.>

Uhh, yeah, I guess I could shoot at you. I sorta wanted to lay a trap, but I could shoot at you here.

The first beam was followed up by three more in rapid succession, the TIE Defender targeting the nearest TIE Fighter. Having gotten the attention of the fleet it turned tail and ran, using its superior speed to get away. It would most likely make it to the hyper limit before the ships caught up with it, but it would need luck to get away if they calculated where it was going.

OOC:Let me get a copy of the maps.

IC: The fleet then sent the extremly fast Vandariou X 193v after the TIE Defender whilst the ofther ships chasing the target down shooting rapidly and almost not ceasing. When the Vandarious X 193 finally caught up with the TIE Defender it was running on only half of it's Auxillary Generator and immediatly rolled out the turrets and opened fire on the nearby vessel. The trailing Clagwire Cruiser targeted the ship instantly and fired one of the fully charged Sith Synthisizing Rays which are capable of putting a whole through a moon the size of pluto.

((question: if you fire a ray that can put a hole in a pluto sized planet, most likely a tie fighter can dodge it, right?))

OOC: Well yes it's possible if he saw it getting ready to fire because when it gets ready to fire it glows for about 2 seconds then shoots so yes it's entirely possible but you must remember my other ships are shooting you and one is right next to you and the shot that will put a hole in pluto is behind you so you will more then likely be blindsided so and your under complete target if you dodge my attack make it either dumb luck or make it so at that moment you turned around saw it getting ready to fire and dodged out the way.

*A massive battleship crusies into sight, surrounded by wings of Sunfury Fighters.*

"This is the C.S.V. Templar, what is going on here, we almost ran straight into that energy discharge!"

((I'm just in awe over the power of your tracking systems to hit a tiny maneuverable craft, moving at high speeds (evasively), with an asteroid killing beam cannon.))

((I can never understand why battleships are used in scouting... total waste of resources, especially for a new stellar nation.))

OOC: Actually a beam that size would have a hard time hitting a fighter that is as manueverable as the TIE/D. Most of your stuff I consider way over powered and under priced, but unless it comes to a war between us I won't make an issue of it.

The TIE Defender easily avoids the massive blast, however it is not so successful with the 193. It was nearly to the hyper limit, dodging and twisting around the beams, before it finally lost out. One of the smaller antifighter turrets finally nailed the TIE Defender, blowing through its shields and nearly destroying the small ship. It tumbles through space, either to be pick up or made another random chunk of space debris.

((I can never understand why battleships are used in scouting... total waste of resources, especially for a new stellar nation.))

It was en route to another station, I never said it was scouting.

Don't be so quick to make assumptions.

((Right through contested space?))

((Right through contested space?))


Seeing as the Admiral asked about the situation, he wouldn't have known it was contested, that and the fact that TCS recently moved away from Earth, which doesn't do good for it's political regions knowladge.

((Right through contested space?))

((Furthermore, it isn't your space that you are traveling through... It may be even considered an act of war.))

Like I said, it was en route to a new location, and would have activated a constant signal to all receptors stating it's purpose.

((Just seems a bad idea to send a lone battleship, unescorted (fighters don't count), through alien territory... Can't you just go around?))

OOC: TCS is my ally and they are allowed through any of my space zones.

IC: The Clagwire Cruiser quickly jets down towards the completely ahnialated Tie/D and with the help of the Vandarious X 193 they were able to stop the falling craft. They then took the severely injured pilot out of the debris and took hin to the on board medical room in the transport. As his condition stabalized they asked him for his name and why he was in our space zones and why he shot. They were in the meantime trying to salvage anything usable from the debris.

((That's different...))

"C.S.V. Templar to Zactarn Ships, we request information of your delima, and we offer aid if possible."

OOC: Have you ever read the Sword of Truth series, if you haven't then I would suggest it and this guy will sound much more like a lunatic then he would otherwise. Oh course the Blood of the Fold are lunatics but at least his ravings would be more comprehesible.

"I am Pilot First Class of the Blood of the Fold, and I have come to stop in the name of the Creator. You banelings have too long controlled the stars and tried to bring forth the Keeper to rule us all. The Blood of the Fold shall put you back in your place, the Creator shall triumph and the lifeblood of your nation will slowly leak between your fingers. All the banelings that be among the stars shall perish in the name of the Creator so that your Nameless master will never have dominion over us."

The man continues to rail against the Keeper and banelings, putting every bad thing that has happened since the dawn of time at the feet of the Keeper and GE, with intermittant refernces to the Sith.

"C.S.V. Templar to Zactarn Ships, we request information of your delima, and we offer aid if possible."

"Well El Conado has suffered an epidemic where people are turning into living zombies so we sent a transport over there but it was shot down by space raiders and we ended up getting into a mini-skirmish of sorts. So it's quite possible that we may be on the brink of war."

"Well sir I do say we have come to a misunderstanding as our leader Darth Vaclavious is a compassionate man. Just because he is a Sith dosen't mean he's evil it's a commobn misconception. See he told us to save you we were going to let your sorry ass die. So again what is this Kepper and Creator and all of this other bullshit you speak of?"

"I must say, just ignore him, I'm sure we have sufficient forces to eradicate him if he attacks us."

OOC: They're religious fanatics, if you'd rather I not play them just tell me and I will change what they are. Anything that this guy says that would be a GM in RPing is just indoctrination, oh, and if you have tried to cavity search him then he would be dead.

"The Keeper is the Dark Master of the underworld, for generations the Blood have stood by and watched this happening doing nothing and fearing retribution. Now the Blood has fled to the stars where no one can find us, and we shall strike with impunity those taken by the Keeper. The Creator shall shelter us in his light and we will triumph over you dark minions and trample you beneath our rightous wrath. I will gladly die before giving over anything, anything at all."

"Then we will cut each finger off then each and then each toe then each foot and if you don't talk we will cut off your probably small dick and balls shove it in your mouth and force you to choke on them."

The man begins to laugh, and laugh harder while a wild gleam enters his eye. His laugh cuts off abruptly as he smashes his teeth together, the poison courses through his veins, attacking the brain instantly and more slowly killing the body. The poison has already affected his brain, and his body will be dead in fifteen or twenty seconds.

"OH MY GOD WTH WTF is going on with him his veins are turning red!!!"

"The scans show he's ok."

"Well then track any marking on the ship we'll find out what the hell this is."

I was just trying to provoke a response, thanks for asking though.

Play as him if you wish.

"We have a squad of Guardsmen ready. Give us the word and we shall dispatch to your ship."

The ship has been hit by weaponry and the computers destroyed by the pilot, nothing remains that could tell anyone where the ship came from. If it had been captured intact then maybe so, but after being mostly blown away the ship had little to tell investigators.

I was talking to Zactarn. :P

But thanks for sparing us a trip to your ship, though I'll send some people anyway.

*"OK LADIES! MOOOOVE ITT!", Shouted Sergeant Tiln. He and his Elysian squad sealed their helmets and stepped into the airlock, holding onto a personnal bar connected to the hull tightly. The front door opened and they jettisoned over to the next ship, activating their magnectic boots and placing a detonation charge over the hatch.

"Fire in the hole!", a private screamed.

The troopers jettisoned off and swarmed inside of the ship, it looked heavily damaged.

"Looks like Zactarn did some MAYYY-JOR damage...Whiteson, Starr, go check the cockpit. The rest of us will search the ship!"*

OOC: Wait, what??? Zactarn said they searched the ship for clues as to where it came from, what are you boarding?

Your old ship.

Going to bed now.

All it was was a TIE/D and I have it in the evidence room at Zactarn Prime Intergalactic Inevstigations Unit or ZPIIU for short. So how are you searching it?

OOC: Yeah, a TIE/D is a one man fighter, but lets assume for the sake of making fun of you that it is not in ZPIIU custody ;) . I'm making a joke, not trying to be mean so don't take this the wrong way, please.

The squad piled into the ship, the first half being killed by the press of people and all but the last person in suffering a large number of broken bones and ruptured organ. One person calls from the middle,
"I found and searched the cockpit sir, it appears that it is filled with dead bodies and severally wounded." Another voice near the back of the cockpit calls,
"I've searched the rest, there are a large number of dead and wounded here too. They look like some of ours sir."
