    OOC: Hey Sithy, sorry I took so long to get my reply up, I got cast in a short (30 min) play and all my spare time is basically learning the script and rehearsals. But it's finally here, you don't have to hold your breath anymore... And idea where Yuul and Darth_Joesha have gotten to?
    And oh yeah, thanks for the 10Gs, should be handy.


    Draeks Ral?ek
    Ssi-Ruuvi ship, Bothawui Orbit

    ?Admiral Yab?ia? He?s alive?? Draeks whispered to himself. ?That?s the best news I?ve heard in some time. His fleet was headed for Agamar last we heard but he never arrived. Even the Spynet could find no trace of him. We had assumed he was dead.?
    ?Unfortunately this arrival poses a problem ? I was hoping we would be to capture a vessel first... nevertheless, it is time we got into action. Follow me.? So saying, Car?das walked towards the end of the room, and, pushing a tile in to the wall to reveal a small pathway, crawled through.
    ?This will take us to the hangar. We can plan the rest on the go, yes?? He said with a chuckle, before continuing to crawl through the tunnel.

    Before Draeks could say anything Oct slapped him on the shoulder on his way into the tunnel, ?I like this guy Draeks, he?s crazier than me.?
    Draeks grinned to himself as he followed after the commando. ?Oct, I think he makes you look sane. If it weren?t the only reason we have a hope of getting off this ship I?d be scared.?

    Moss Yab?ia
    Bothawui Orbit.

    Moss winced in sympathy as Malana flew headlong into a terminal. The Admiral himself, still standing at the central dais, had managed to anchor himself well enough though. Even before the shudders ceased running through his ship the bridge turned into hub of madness and Moss became the eternally calm eye of the storm.
    ?Confirmed- Bothawui Orbit.?
    ?500+ Ssi-Ruuk in orbit.?
    ?Hyperdrive non responsive.?
    Then over the din came the voice Moss had been waiting for, ?Set condition one across the ship, this is not a drill.?
    Over the years Commodore Mak Ruk?sil had developed the ability to make himself heard in any situation, an ability which came in particularly useful on the bridge of a Bothan Star Destroyer.
    ?Admiral, what are your orders??
    ?Pull the fleet in nice and close, I want us to be able to concentrate our fire effectively. Full power to weapons and shields. Repair crews fleet wide are to make hyperdrive repairs their top priority, two star destroyers and half-a-dozen frigates won?t last long here.?
    As the other seven ships in his fleet checked in he glanced around the bridge, ?and get a medic up here for Malana.?

    Chief Engineer Acsai
    Ruusan

    ?I am sorry for your loss, Chief.?
    ?Thank you Captain. For you aid and your condolences.?
    Acsai tapped Ricky on the shoulder, ?c?mon Ricky, time to go.?
    Engineers Mate Rickston stared, eyes unseeing, around the deserted engine room one last time before he quickly gathered together the tool kit they had been using what seemed like so long ago. It was still missing the size 5 hydrospanner.

    Ten Minutes Later

    The Sith rescue shuttle gently touched down on the hanger deck of the Super Star Destroyer Heimdall, its hatch opening to reveal the cavernous space. Acsai marched down the ramp, back parade-ground straight, and came to attention before the human wearing Captain?s insignia, ?Chief Engineer Acsai reporting Sir! And this is Engineers Mate Ricston, formally of the Bothan Coalition Starship Irys.? He snapped off a salute before continuing, ?Thankyou for saving us, we are in your debt.?

    ?I thank you both. I must ask, however, Captain Kas?bar, that if you will not be nice, I ask you to be calm. Hold your anger for use against the true ? the real ? enemy, the Ssi-Ruuk; not this poor soul who has had the misfortune to become one of their creatures.?
    Dall opened his mouth to speak, a few choice words regarding this ?poor soul? ready on his tongue. But he clamped his jaw shut a

    OOC: I hoped that leaving this update would allow for more player input, but it appears that is not on the cards ? nevertheless, if there is still one player interested, then this game will continue.

    The lack of in character posting has forced me to introduce a new rule to the game ? Payday?s are only relevant to those who post replies to atleast one of the GM updates in the week ? and therefore balance sheet updates which are NOT accompanied by a In character post are rendered irrelevant. Thank you.




    [b]The Bothan Coalition[/b]

    IC: Jorj Car?das

    Chuckling at the banter between the two Bothans, Car?das proceeded to crawl down the small tunnel, and after a few hundred meters, found the space he was looking for. He kicked a panel out of the wall, and crawled through the new hole ? revealing one of the ships numerous hangars, in the midst of launching numerous fighters. ?There,? Car?das said, turning to face the beings surrounding him, and pointing at a small Ssi-Ruuk shuttle. ?We can take that shuttle ? it should have a comm link that we can use to contact the Bothan?s. We need to be quick-? He turned to face Argyle, smiling. ?This will be fun.? He said, with a grin, before pressing down hard on the tattoo on the back of his wrist.

    It began to glow a dark red, and Car?das closed his eyes, his smile growing wider, as he began to slowly raise into the air ? hovering a few centimetres above ground level, the air around him becoming tense, and filled with static energy. Car?das gave the Bothan?s a wink, before bringing his arms into his body slowly, the static energy growing more potent ?causing his hair to stand on end, before quickly spreading them out again.

    A shockwave spread out from Car?das?s body ? knocking every soldier off his feet, throwing crates up into the air, and crushing fighter craft. As soon as the shockwave was unleashed, Car?das jumped into the fray and confusion that was the deck. He smiled as he gathered the current in the static charged air around him, absorbing it before letting the current spread through him, through his arms, down his wrists, and into his hands, before discharging powerful bolts of lightning from his finger tips ? frying the majority of the Ssi-Ruuk soldiers, technicians, and deck hands. Moving faster than the eye could track him, he proceeded to finish the survivors, with powerful punches, increased by the power he took from the universe itself ? breaking through skin and bone as if it was flimsiplast.

    A few minutes later, he was done. The deck was covered in splatters of red ? blood from the dead. The hangar was empty and eerily silent ? only one ship remained in one piece ? the shuttle. Car?das closed his eyes, and exhaled, allowing the energy that had coursed through his body to return back to the universe, and lowered himself to the floor. He turned to his awe struck companions with a smile. ?Hurry.? He said. ?We have little time.? So saying he turned to the shuttle, running up the ramp, and turned to Draeks. ?Man the comm,? He ordered, before directing Oct and Argyle. ?Oct ? you?ll be my co-pilot. Argyle ? you?re on weapons duty.? He turned to face them, and noticing their still slack jawed expressions, clicked his fingers ? snapping them back to reality. ?Snap to!?

    As the other seven ships in his fleet checked in he glanced around the bridge, ?and get a medic up here for Malana.? [/i]
    Malana woke with a start, to find a furry faced medic looking into her face. She shook him off, with a quick ?I?m fine,? and turned to the Admiral, ?What?s going on? What hap-? She began, before crying out with pain, as she felt the tattoo on her arm burn red hot ? and sat down, closing her eyes, and began to medita

    Draeks Ral?ek
    Ssi-Ruuvi fleet, Bothawui orbit.

    ?This will be fun.?
    ?You?ve totally insane,? Draeks muttered as Car?das walked out onto the hanger deck. ?There?s only the four of us and at least?? He paused as he felt his fur stand on end and looked around. Oct was the same, static electricity had his fur pointing all over the place. Then Draeks noticed the hair on Car?das?s head was pointing straight up? and he happened to be floating. Just a few centimetres up but still? Floating?
    The aged human winked at the stunned Bothan then slowly pulled his hands towards his body. Draeks felt his fur begin to vibrate as the static build up became more intense. Then the air around Car?das exploded outward, the powerful shockwave tossing aside Ssi-Ruuk and storage crates alike as though they weighed no more than feathers. Oct and Draeks fur suddenly dropped as the static vanished from the atmosphere. It quickly became apparent where it had gone though, bolts of electricity surged from Car?das?s outstretched fingers, ripping deep into the Ssi-Ruuk who dared to remain standing.
    Draeks didn?t actually see Car?das again until it was over, he just saw massive Ssi-Ruuvi warriors collapse to the floor in messy heaps. Gaping holes where their vital organs had been.
    Then the white-haired old man stopped in the middle of the hanger, he exhaled gently and was again, just a simple man.
    He turned to his awe struck companions with a smile. ?Hurry.? He said. ?We have little time.? So saying he turned to the shuttle, running up the ramp, and turned to Draeks. ?Man the comm,? He ordered, before directing Oct and Argyle. ?Oct ? you?ll be my co-pilot. Argyle ? you?re on weapons duty.? He turned to face them, and noticing their still slack jawed expressions, clicked his fingers ? snapping them back to reality. ?Snap to!?
    Draeks nodded dumbly as he fumbled his way into the seat at the comm station and clumsily strapped himself in. ?What are you?? He managed.

    Moss Yab?ia
    Bothawui Orbit

    As soon as Malana awoke and declared herself fine, Moss put her from his mind. He now had to ensure the rest of his fleet would also be ?fine?.
    Unfortunately the news from Commodore Ruk?sil was not promising.
    ?Do you really think that any manoeuvre we attempt will actually gain us twelve hours here Commodore?? He asked his XO quietly before raising his voice, ?All frigates, fall back out of range of the main Ssi-Ruuk fleet. Galactica and Nebula will cover them before we withdraw to their position. All pilots, get to your ships but do not launch unless ordered by myself or Commodore Ruk?sil. And get some scans of the Ssi-Ruuk fleet, let?s find out what we?re up against.?

    Turning back to the Bothan?s, Ctica smiled. ?It seems the tour will have to wait ? we have more pressing matters. Please accompany me to the bridge, as we make the jump to hyperspace.?

    ?Of course,? Acsai replied as the massive ship made the transition to Hyperspace and he fell into step slightly behind Ctica, Ricky beside him.
    ?If it?s not a breach of operational security, where are we headed??

    Despite the anger that seethed within Dall, he couldn?t help but feel some small sparks of pity for the thing that had once been Captain Rennar. Not that he let it show of course, he kept his mask of hatred firmly in place as Baron Fel called a halt to this test and began another. ?If this Ssi-Ruuk machines can be controlled by a restraining bolt then that would be a great advantage for us. Assuming it isn?t too difficult to implement of course.?

Car?das left the Bothan to mull over the question as he began to plot escape vectors. He turned to Oct, and began to talk strategies as he began the power of sequence. ?Run for the nearest Bothan ship, perhaps?? He said, and smiled. ?Draeks get ready on that comm ? I want you to send an emergency message ASAP ? with any luck your fleet out there will know we?re friendly.? The shuttle began to rise, and approached the still closed bay doors. ?Let?s blow this joint.? He began to throttle up, and after watching his passenger?s fearful expressions, smiled. ?Whatever is the matter?? He asked, then realised. ?Oh the doors. He raised his fist, and made a punching motion. The solid durasteel doors buckled outwards, as if punched by a giant fist, before being pulled out into space. ?Let?s do this.?

    IC: Malana, Commodore Ruk?sil

    [i]?Do you really think that any manoeuvre we attempt will actually gain us twelve hours here Commodore?? He asked his XO quietly before raising his voice, ?All frigates, fall back out of range of the main Ssi-Ruuk fleet. Galactica and Nebula will cover them before we withdraw to their position. All pilots, get to your ships but do not launch unless ordered by myself or Commodore Ruk?sil. And get some scans of the Ssi-Ruuk fleet, let?s find out what we?re up against.? [/i]

    ?Sir, yes, Sir!? Came the hurried replies of the crew as they rushed about the ship, following their Admiral?s orders. Ruk?sil frowned as he noticed one of the crew, a tech officer, shaking his head. ?What is it son?? He asked, and felt his fur stand up on end as he saw the results of the scan. ?Tell none.? He said, and immediately strode to the Admiral?s side. ?Admiral, have you looked at the scan results? The Ssi-Ruuk outnumber us nearly 50 to 1, and they have more swarm droids than I knew existed.? Ruk?sil sighed. ?But that?s the least of our worries. This is the real problem ? the huge ship in the middle of the fleet. It is flagged on the Spynet as extremely dangerous, and do not approach at any means.? He zoomed in on the image, and let it take center place on the screen. ?We need to get out of here. Now.? Ruk?sil swore as the bridge shook, and the lights flickered, before turning to the deep red of emergency lighting. ?We need a diversion.? Ruk?sil said, as another alarm drew him towards a monitor ? ?Sir, both Galactica and Nebula are down to less than 50% Shield, and 75% Hull capacity. Our estimates give them at best 10 minutes.

    ?By the Force?? Draeks whispered as Car?das ?punched? the blast doors into space. ?If only you?ve been on the ground to help the Resistance, we could have taken Bothawui back in a day.?
    The shuttle?s sudden acceleration pulled Draeks?s mind back to the present as he readied the comm equipment and sent a message to the Bothan Fleet.
    ?Admiral Yab?ia, this is Vice President Ral?ek. I don?t know where you?ve been all this time Admiral but we sure could use a lift outta here.?

    Moss Yab?ia
    Bothawui Orbit ? Galactica

    ?I really didn?t want to know the exact odds here Mak, but yes I had noticed the obscene amount of Ssi-Ruuvi ships here, defiling our home.?
    ?But that?s the least of our worries. This is the real problem ? the huge ship in the middle of the fleet. It is flagged on the Spynet as extremely dangerous, and do not approach at any means. We need to get out of here. Now.?
    ?Well I?m not arguing with you on that one XO,? Moss muttered as his ship shuddered under a particularly aggressive attack.
    ?What we need is a diversion.?
    ?Sorry XO, I forgot to pack a diversion. Did you bring one??
    Another alarm blared out from the bridge speakers, ?Will someone turn those off?? Moss called, ?I am well aware that we?re being shot at.?
    ?Sir, both Galactica and Nebula are down to less than 50% Shield, and 75% Hull capacity. Our estimates give them at best 10 minutes. On a good day. We?re fracked.? The Exo stated, collapsing on the ground, his resolve broken. Malana strode up to the Commodore, and smiled. ?An old saying from my homeworld seems apt here, Exo ? the night is darkest before the dawn. No matter how dark, there is always hope. This, for example. Notice anything odd about this scan, Admiral ? in particular the ship leaving the hangar on the 34th deck.?
    ?Sir, I?m getting a transmission on a secure government channel.?
    ?Put it through lieutenant.?
    ?Admiral Yab?ia, this is Vice President Ral?ek. I don?t know where you?ve been all this time Admiral but we sure could use a lift outta here.?
    ?Copy that Vice President, the main hanger is waiting, we?ll cover you. Yab?ia out.?
    He turned to his XO, ?get up Mak, we aren?t finished yet. Take as many of First Battalion as you can to meet the ?Vice President?s? shuttle, I?m not sure I trust that message just yet. Confirm identity then bring them here or to the brig as appropriate.?
    As Commodore Ruk?sil left the bridge Moss returned his attention to the battle, ?All starboard batteries, target a single Ssi-Ruuk vessel and keep hitting it till it dies, same order to Portside batteries. Have Nebula doing the same to their own targets. All frigates are to hit another target. Launch all Starfighter squadrons, I want half the B-wings going after one target, the other half going after another. Half our E-wing are to target another cruiser and the rest are gonna provide as much cover as they can from the Swarm Droids. Tell them to torpedo the bastards to hell. With any luck that might buy us a little more time.?

No disrespect intended to your ship but if it forced the entire Bothan defence fleet to flee then surely it would be too much for even a Super Star Destroyer to take on??

    Car?das turned to Draeks. ?This power is not one I hold permanently.? He shook his head, frowning. ?No one should have that much power, permanently, bar one.? He turned back to the front view screen, returning to concentrating on piloting the ship; as the Bothan Vice President tried to contact the main Bothan Fleet.?

    [i] ?Admiral Yab?ia, this is Vice President Ral?ek. I don?t know where you?ve been all this time Admiral but we sure could use a lift outta here.? [/i]

    [i] ?Copy that Vice President, the main hanger is waiting, we?ll cover you. Yab?ia out.? [/i]

    Car?das concentrated upon reaching the main hangar intact, dodging the blues and greens of candescent turbo laser blasts, intent on reaching his goal.

    [b]IC: Malana, CPO Bishop[/b]

    Malana smiled as she heard the exchange between the Admiral and Vice President. ?It is them, Admiral. I am sure of that. I feel their respective presences in the force.?

    [i] ?All starboard batteries, target a single Ssi-Ruuk vessel and keep hitting it till it dies, same order to Portside batteries. Have Nebula doing the same to their own targets.

With any luck that might buy us a little more time.? [/i]

    Malana watched as a Bothan in a orange jumpsuit ran up to the Admiral, a Chief Petty Office, judging by the badge on his sleeve, and watched the exchange with interest. ?Sir, our ships are taking heavy damage; all ships in the fleet are down to, at best, 75% Shields. Our own sh-? The bridge rocked as the [i]Galactica[/i] took a hit, and then another. ?Our own shields are down to 25%, and our outer hull is completely fracked. Total hull damage is now 50%? Bishop put his hand to his ear, as he concentrated on discerning the signal from the noise of the battle ? the constant barrage of turbolasers, the chatter of income reports, and the death screams of Bothan pilots ? ?Sir.? Bishop spoke, his fur paling. ?The Ssi-Ruuk are beginning to fall back ? that ship? Bishop pointed at the spynet report on the screen infront of him. ?Is moving to the front of the Ssi-Ruuk fleet.?

    Malana turned to the spynet report, watching the screen in earnest, before realising exactly what she was seeing. ?Admiral.? She said. ?You have to concentrate all firepower on that ship. Ignore the others.? Bishop frowned ? ?We have taken out 6 Ssi-Ruuk ships, and countless swarm droids ? at the cost of only 2 of our ships, and 2 squadrons of E-Wings. There is nothing wrong with our current strategy.?

    Malana shook her head sadly. ?Your men are throwing their lives away. As we all will be. Admiral. That ship is a superweapon. It not only has the power to entech souls, it can use the combined power from the enteched souls to destroy a sun. Pray that they have not yet got this device operational, Admiral, Chief ? or we are all fracked.?

    A voice from somewhere on the bridge shouted out, and Malana felt the blood leave her. ?Sir! We have incoming.?

    Mak stood in the elevator, surrounded by 15 of the best men he could trust with his life, as he had, many times over. He turned to address them, shouting above the ships never ending convulsions. ?I will say this only once. The threat below is very, very real. This could very well be a Ssi-Ruuk sabotage mission. Shoot to kill. Do not hesitate. Even if we get full confirmation of identity ? do not stand down. Be alert. Be prepared. Be ready for anything.?

    OOC: A little confusing? Bloody hell Sithy, you really went to town on us this time?

    Moss Yab?ia
    Bothawui Orbit

    Moss listened impassively as CPO Bishop ran through a list of the damage so far. He knew that by all rights his fleet should be dead by now, but so far their discipline had keep the majority alive. He also knew that it couldn?t last. He had eight capital ships and twenty-four starfighter squadrons, the Ssi-Ruuk fleet had more battleships than he had starfighters. No matter how skilled, how disciplined, his warriors. They would die through sheer power of numbers.
    So when the Ssi-Ruuk fleet began to fall back Moss was at a complete loss, he couldn?t comprehend why they would give him a chance to regroup his forces.
    It wasn?t until the massive ship that had been in the centre of their fleet advanced that the pieces began to click, Malana?s brief description of the capabilities possessed by the vessel completed the picture.
    A voice from somewhere on the bridge shouted out, and Malana felt the blood leave her. ?Sir! We have incoming.?
    The admiral sighed as a terrible sense of finality settled upon him, it seemed the end had finally come. But whatever fears of failure and death he might be feeling, he would face them as a Bothan, as an Admiral, on the bridge of his flagship. Admiral Moss Yab?ia of the Bothan Coalition stood tall at the front of his bridge, experienced eyes picking out the tiny glint of metal speeding towards his ship that would bring his death. He allowed one quite sigh to escape his lips as it drew nearer, then took a deep breath, fully expecting to be his last.
    Less than a second from impact the speeding projectile ceased to exist. A few sparks and a brief puff of flame indicated the disintegration of the torpedo.
    ?What the hell was that??
    Moss chose, for the moment, to ignore Malana. His mind was suddenly filled with the possibilities a cloaked Super Star Destroyer would open up for his fleets. He seriously doubted he would ever actually get one but for just a moment he indulged his imagination. Just a moment.
    ?That was a cloaked Super Star Destroyer saving our lives.? He gave the rest of his bridge crew a second to realise that they weren?t dead yet before he started shouting orders.
    ?Message to all ships: Get the hell out of here! Full retreat, get as far away from the Ssi-Ruuk as we can while that Destroyer keeps the lizards occupied. Recall all fighters to the nearest ship with hanger space, don?t be fancy just get them docked. And someone get me an update on our hyperdrives! Can we jump out of here yet??
    As the bridge buzzed with renewed vigour, Moss activated the comm and hailed the new arrival.
    ?To the captain of the Super Star Destroyer, this is Admiral Yab?ia. You have my undying gratitude for your impeccably timed distraction, but I suspect that even your ship cannot survive against that armada for long. Loath as I am to risk the Ssi-Ruuk coming after my fleet again, I suggest you get out of here while you still can.?

    Mak wasn?t sure exactly when his jaw dropped. But it was either when the torpedo that would spell their doom disintegrated for no apparent cause in the middle of empty space. Or when that empty space was suddenly filled with nineteen kilometres of Super Star Destroyer. Or maybe it was when that Destroyer unleashed its weapons against the Ssi-Ruuk fleet.
    It wasn?t until he saw the shuttle hurtling towards the hanger that he recalled his purpose for being here in the first place. ?Look alive boys,? he snapped at the soldiers around him. ?That Destroyer might be occupying the Ssi-Ruuk for us be we still got a job to do.?
    ?Uh, XO? Isn?t that shuttle coming in a little hot??

    IC: Malana, CPO Bishop, Captain Ctica

    [i] ?That was a cloaked Super Star Destroyer saving our lives.?[/i] The Admiral said, at the same time as Malana came to the same conclusion. The Admiral began to shout orders, and Malana listened intently.

    [i]?Message to all ships: Get the hell out of here! Full retreat, get as far away from the Ssi-Ruuk as we can while that Destroyer keeps the lizards occupied. Recall all fighters to the nearest ship with hanger space, don?t be fancy just get them docked. And someone get me an update on our hyperdrives! Can we jump out of here yet?? [/i]

    Bishop checked his status reports, and gave a grim smile. ?Hyperdrive is still dea- wait.? He double checked the reports, and then looked through again. ?Sir!? He said, excitedly. ?The Hyperdrive is responding ? a small amount of power ? just enough to get out of the system. There is enough for a single jump ? to within 25 parsecs. Engineering is ready as soon as you are, Admiral.? Bishop said, turning to the Admiral, before realising that the Admiral had already moved on to the next order of business ? contacting the SSD.

    [i]?To the captain of the Super Star Destroyer, this is Admiral Yab?ia. You have my undying gratitude for your impeccably timed distraction, but I suspect that even your ship cannot survive against that armada for long. Loath as I am to risk the Ssi-Ruuk coming after my fleet again, I suggest you get out of here while you still can.? [/i]

    ?Admiral Yab?ia, this is Captain Ctica, Captain of the SSD. In coming to your timely rescue, the pleasure is all mine. You?re very much mistaken if you think the [i]Eagle?s Talon[/i] cannot take the fleet. It can. For a time. Withdraw your ships at once. My techs calculate that you have enough power to make a short hyperspace jump ? there is a small base nearby which is capable of repairing the damage to your fleet. I?m sending the co-ords now.

[b]Shields: 0% Hull Integrity 36%[/b] ?Car?das!? he heard one of the Bothan?s shout from behind him. ?What?? He snapped back, before staring ahead of him. The ship was passing into the hangar, and was still at maximum speed. ?BRACE!? Car?das said, hitting full reverse, and using all his abilities to try and slow the shuttle.

    It worked. Slightly. The ship slid across the floor, a terrible screeching noise causing the Bothans who weren?t diving out of the way to cover their ears. The shuttle smashed into the hangar wall, as smoke and fire raged throughout the cockpit. ?Get out. Now!? Car?das shouted at his passengers, urging them out of the shuttle, and towards the Bothan?s waiting with Blasters drawn.

Rennar will be kept somewhere safe ? as soon as the tests are complete, he will be moved to a safer location. His crew will be informed that he is being given substantial treatment for psychiatric isssues related to the loss of his family. And as for your ship, and crew, your free to go. To an extent.

    ?You want to travel on my ship?? Dall chuckled as he struggled to regain control of himself, ?I don?t know if you cast even a cursory glance at the Leukos when you arrived? We?ve got more than a few nasty hull breaches courtesy of riding a Super Nova shockwave and the combined efforts a few dozen Drioid Frigates. Our hyperdrive unit currently consists of 144 individual starfighter units jury-rigged together. Unless you?ve had a portable space dock over there doing repairs then my ship is a death trap.?

    A sterile hangar, a tall building, with arms sticking out, the back of the head of a sandy haired human, a cloaked figure, laughing maniacally, the hood slipped down, revealing the face of Luke Skywalker. The image sped away from his face, revealing the interior of a large ship, the image sped away further, and further, and further, speeding through hallways, before revealing a large ship ? kilometres long, before revealing a planet in the midst of battle. A projectile hit the planets sun, and from it, a fire spread, engulfing the galaxy.

    ?Oh wow?? Jakys moaned as vision of fire lifted and he slumped down on the floor, struggling to control his lunch. ?Let?s not do that again now,? he mumbled to his stomach before Jacen caught his eye.
    ?Tell me if you saw what I did.?
    ?Only if you promise to tell me that Luke Skywalker is not being used as a superweapon of unparalleled power,? the Bothan countered.
