Cantina 12: The Republic Strikes Back - Page 4

**Redwing** · 03-13-2004, 04:30 AM

Aren: Your Victory II Star Destroyer, outfitted with a cloaking device, swoops and AT-PTs, prisoner cells and a vornskr cage is in orbit in a holding bay as we speak. The battle armor, weapons, and credits you requested are right here in our cargo bay. And we have our first mission for you already - all you have to do is sign on the datapad here, and we'll be all set.

*She hands Kioet a datapad with a line drawn on its screen, and an inkless 'pen'. As she does so, she notices Zey walking towards them*

Aren: And who's your friend?

----------

*Rwos locks coordinates in as well and enters warp-space*

Rogue15 · 03-13-2004, 08:06 PM

Kioet: ooooooh hell yeah!!!

*Kioet quickly signs his signature on the datapad*

Kioet: That is Zey. She wants to help me and Farran in our mission, unless you have something else for her.

*Zey grins darkly*

BattleDog · 03-14-2004, 08:01 PM

((Damm Collage work.))

Dasken: Our mission now is to get this tech specialist out. You should know we're already interdicting convoys.

Hal: Lets go already.

**Redwing** · 03-15-2004, 03:42 AM

Aren: We'll...have to see. *to Zey* What can you tell me about yourself? And how do you know Farran and Kioet?

Deac · 03-15-2004, 04:30 PM

*Deac's ship drops out of hyperspace. Several Imperial ships are in the area*

Deac: Damn! Lokpihet's fleet is still here! Rwos! I'm gonna plot a nav buoy...this is gonna be one hell of a blockade running.

*Deac pilots the ship toward the distant buoy*

--------------------------------

*Lokpihet recieves a message*

Comm: Sir, Starkiller has been sighted.

Lokpihet: Bah. Still attempting to defeat me.

BattleDog · 03-15-2004, 08:54 PM

Hal: I'll take the turret. *Activates comlink.* Chief, I need you in the dorsal turret.

Chief: On my way.

**Redwing** · 03-16-2004, 04:40 AM

*Rwos' fighter is already engaged with the Imperials*

Rwos: *over Deac's comm* It appears your daughter has already found Lokpihet...or he is following her, rather than the other way around.

Deac · 03-16-2004, 06:32 PM

Deac: Figures. I'll get that son of a...!

*Deac destroys two incoming TIE Interceptors with the turret*

Deac: Not so far...!

*The ship continues evading missiles as it approaches the Nav Buoy*

Kuuki · 03-16-2004, 07:10 PM

*F. Irvine's comm activates. He takes it out.*

F. Irvine "What is it?" *A pause* "I see." *Another pause* "What do you expect Destory em! Do I have to think for you too!?"

*F. Irvine kills the Comm.*

F. Irvine "The persistant Deac... I told you that you should have killed him back on that planet, Lokpihet."

**Redwing** · 03-17-2004, 03:41 AM

Rwos: *comm* Deac, wait! What if your daughter is here? Or has she left another trail?

Deac · 03-17-2004, 04:42 PM

[Now Scar, are you talking to Lokpihet there, or are you referring to the little known fact that the Imperial Research World was also first called planet Lokpihet?]

Deac: Rwos! Lokpihet's SSD isn't here! So...it must be...

*Deac's nav comp highlights a particular world. Imperial Research Station 157*

Deac: He's there! The old facility! The Avatar Project! He's gone back!

----------------------------------------

Lokpihet: He won't be a problem. Not now that I have a particularly good ally against him...

*Elella enters, wearing Sith robes....*

Writer · 03-17-2004, 06:14 PM

((In order for me to continue here, I'll need to know where the three people I'm hunting currently are. I'm looking for Deac, Taklin, and Greer. If you could tell me where they are, I'd apreciate it much. Thanks.))

Kuuki · 03-18-2004, 06:33 AM

((Was talking to Lokpihet, and talking about the planet where they fought, yes. ^_^))

**Redwing** · 03-18-2004, 08:46 AM

Rwos: What? I thought everything relevant in that place was destroyed...by us, no less...what is he expecting to find?

Deac · 03-18-2004, 06:32 PM

Deac: I don't know...but it must be something deep underground. Maybe CyberEyes had something...or even...Norl....

--------------------------------------------

Comm: My Lord, he is on his way.

Lokpihet: Excellent. See, Elella, soon you will meet the father who never loved you. Even in their differences, they were so very much alike.

Elella: Yes...half-brother....

jokemaster · 03-20-2004, 02:33 AM

((WJ: Flax and Deac are on a ship, fighting against Lokiphet, Greer's on his way to Corusant))
Greer: OK people, let's get some rest. We'll be arriving in Corusant soon.

Writer · 03-20-2004, 04:59 PM

Nom and Tarila had not left Coruscant yet because of the news they had recieved. Greer was coming to Coruscant, coming right to them.

"It's not hard to capture somebody when they come right to you," Nom said. Tarila nodded.

"It's almost too easy," she answered. "We'll just spy on him until we find out where he stays and I'll go in to grab him. It is too easy. We need something that's going to be a bit more fun."

"You want fun?" Nom said, wheeling on his sister. "Your definition of fun is danger, something that could get you killed. That is something I won't stand for. We're doing this the easy way, got it?"

"I'm not about to risk my life," Tarila snapped. "I just wish this job could be a little more interesting."

"You just wait," Nom said. "Starkiller and Flax will be 'interesting' enough."

jokemaster · 03-20-2004, 05:06 PM

*Greer went to the cockpit and checked their location. The pilot ignored him. He walked back*
Greer: OK, we'll be dropping out of hyperspace soon. Get ready to leave. Perez, I want you to be ready to contact Qwera through any means once we arrive. This should be simple, we walk in, contact her, walk out.
*Finally, the ship dropped out of hyperspace and headed toward Corusant, ready to land.*

Writer · 03-20-2004, 05:37 PM

Nom and Tarila were on the bridge of their ship, still in orbit around Coruscant. Tarila suddenly leaned forward.

"There he is," she announced. Greer's ship was easing slowly into the traffic lanes above Coruscant. She jumped quickly from her seat and ran to the hangar bay, where she got into one of the small black shuttles. In this, she kept a safe distance away from Greer's ship, but close enough that she could see where he was going. When he landed, she kept going, but made a mental note of where he had landed.

After a short hunt, she was able to set her shuttle down. Then, she returned by foot to the place that Greer's ship had set down. As she approached, she saw Greer and company walking toward an air taxi. Once they had all gotten in, Tarila walked across to it.

The pilot of the air taxi yelled at her to step back and she obeyed, but what none of the occupants of the taxi knew was that she had placed a tracker on it. She went back to where she had landed the shuttle and followed the air taxi.

When she saw where it stopped, she turned and went back to her ship, where Nom was waiting.

"Your turn," she told him and handed him a slip of paper. It had the address of the place that the air taxi stopped on it. Nom took a different shuttle and went to the surface. He was going to have fun with this.

jokemaster · 03-20-2004, 06:01 PM

*Greer looked around the small room. Perez was setting up his equipment, and the rest of his team was walking around. He looked outside the window, it gave him a clear view of NRI HQ.*
Greer: Perez, keep an eye out. Let me know if they've added any new security measures.

Rogue15 · 03-21-2004, 04:07 AM

Zey: I was a member of a team of spies, investigating tatooine. my team was all caught and killed, except for myself, they don't know about me, and I found out that my employer was killed. I was thinking it over in the local cantina when I met Kioet.

Deac · 03-21-2004, 04:34 PM

*Deac's ship jumps to hyperspace*

**Redwing** · 03-23-2004, 03:44 AM

*Rwos' ship quickly follows Deac's, disappearing in a blue flash*

----------

Aren: A team of spies, huh? What exactly were you spying on?

Deac · 03-23-2004, 04:01 PM

*Deac arrives from hyperspace at the Avatar World*

Deac: Hmmm. Lokpihet's SSD's on the other side...means I can land before his scanners pick me up...

*Deac begins his descent, unsure of what awaits below...*

jokemaster · 03-24-2004, 12:21 AM

((Hehe, Avatar World. Sounds like a theme park))

**Redwing** · 03-24-2004, 10:01 PM

((Bahahaha.

))

*Rwos enters the atmosphere and comms Deac*

Rwos: What now? Do you have any idea where we ought to go?

*Through a fog, Rwos can see decaying buildings*

Deac · 03-25-2004, 04:27 PM

[Come to AVATAR WORLD! SEE the actual swords wielded by their bearers! HEAR accounts of actually being possessed by a godly/demonic avatar! TASTE fine orcish cuisine, as vouched for by one of the Darkstar's Generals! TOUCH an actual fake soul crystal [The managment acceps no responsibilty should your spirit become trapped within]!

]

*Deac aims his blasters at an airstrip with two imperial shuttles and fires.*

Deac: Rwos. Look for the smoke signal and land there...

*Deac lands*

BattleDog · 03-26-2004, 12:58 PM

Sorry guys, guys have been busy, will post tomorrow.

**Redwing** · 03-26-2004, 11:02 PM

*Rwos lands his ship on the landing strip near the smoking shuttles and exits it.*

Rwos: Deac? Are you there?

Deac · 03-27-2004, 11:26 AM

*Deac exits his own ship*

Deac: Here I am

*Shakes Rwos hand*

Deac: Good to see you again. Now let's go get Lokpihet. From what I remember the entrance is over this way...

*Deac gestures to a large structure in a cliff face*

The Avatar Facility

**Redwing** · 03-27-2004, 06:50 PM

Rwos: *Putting his hand on his lightsword* Deja vu. Sure Lokpihet is here? I don't see anyone coming out to...greet us...

Kuuki · 03-27-2004, 09:06 PM

*F. Irvine sat at a security station. Half of the monitors flickered on. Portions of the consoles were in operative, but still enough to do something.

He noted that Deac and Rwos were about to make their enterence into the building.

With his knowledge of Imperial tech, he managed to hotwire some of the controls back online.

Sitting behind the emergancy controls he looks at the array of switches.*

F Irvine *speaking to himself* "What do we have here, turret guns,..." *flips the switch, and half the lights on the main control panel flickered on.* "Hmm, oh sad, most of them are already destoryed. Ah, whats next... Here's one, battle droids." *he hits the switch and half the lights for them flicker on.* "I just hope that they have some improvements."

*F. Irvine turns on his comms*

F. Irvine "Lokpihet, if you may, send me a few squadrons of stormtroopers to sectors 15 through 20, and have them rondevious with the 'security' that I've activated,... to delay our 'guests'. It seems that most of the security has been distoryed but a good supply of Imperial battle droids are still operational, they should be programmed to 'cooperate' with stormtroopers."

"That is if the previous resident hasn't allowed so himself."

Deac · 03-28-2004, 12:34 PM

Deac: Uh-oh.

*Deac ignites his sabers as the thumping of battle droid feet move toward him*

------------------------------------

*Lokpihet exits another tank, having had a power up for his bio-circuitry*

Lokpihet: Fine. Destroy them both. Try to keep the non-human in one piece, we could learn a lot from his cadaver...

*Malice takes her saber and leaves*

Lokpihet: Malice, where are you going?

Malice: I'm going to kill Starkiller. You weren't man enough to and I'm not going to let you make that mistake again.

**Redwing** · 03-29-2004, 06:09 AM

Rwos: I had to say it, didn't I...

*Rwos ignites his lightsword and stands ready*

Deac · 03-29-2004, 04:02 PM

*A squad of battledroids rushes Deac and Rwos. Deac leaps into the air and slices one in half. He then lands and keeps deflecting their bolts*

Kuuki · 03-29-2004, 05:48 PM

*F Irvine watches on a few monitors, knowingly that he only sent out the droids with out the personal shielding. He was keeping those for more of the interoir fighting.*

**Redwing** · 03-31-2004, 06:58 AM

*Rwos slices up the battle droids, avoiding and blocking their blaster shots*

Rwos: Deac! Can you sense Lokpihet or your sister anywhere around here?

Writer · 03-31-2004, 04:53 PM

Nom walked into the building where Greer was staying and looked around. He acted as if he was looking for a specific room, but what he was really doing was checking the security in the area.

Glancing up, Nom's eye caught the sight of a large air vent in the ceiling.

"Tarila's small enough," he muttered. "I'm not."

Glancing around, he removed a small device from his pocket and tossed it into the vent. Then, he took out a small controller and directed the mini camera around inside the ventillation system.

"Perfect!" he whispered to himself. The ventillation system had a large opening in Greer's room. Retrieving the camera, he went back to his shuttle and flew back to the ship to join Tarila.

Deac · 03-31-2004, 05:08 PM

Deac: No! Nothing! Not...normal. Lokpihet must've been here!

jokemaster · 03-31-2004, 08:50 PM

*Perez finished setting up his equipment. Almost immediately, he detected the camera's signal.*
Perez: Hey Greer, take a look at this.
*Greer walked over, and Perez spoke in a low tone to not be heard by the camera*
Perez: There's a camera signal here. Should we block it?
Greer: No. If it's someone else's we'll appear to suspicious. Keep it monitored though.
