	Yes! I am a long fan of "Survivor". I first read it in an offline version. To my mind, one of the greatest Imperial POV fanfics. I am a diehard Empire fan, really enjoyed this story! It's also very well written, has solid plot and takes a very interesting place for action - Yavin IV just after the BoY.. Very outstanding fanfic; there's really not many of Imperial kind in the english Internet Thanks to the author for his work. I wish this fanfic to be completed! -----signature----- The Black Cell: http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=14092429 Crossing the Frontline: http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=14271471 Imperial Stories Index: http://boards.theforce.net/Fan_Fiction_Writers_Resource/b10304/14303001

	Okay, i promised I would have something up before Christmas. It isn't much, but hey at least its something to hold you over until i can get more of this chapter written. neila's Sig says: I Steven... sigh [face_shocked] You love me!? Part 1 of ? Part III Struggle Chapter XVII - Tomb of Fire DAY FIVE The blood was rushing to his head and pooling in his thick skull, giving him a headache like no headache ever before. Maximilian Veers could feel his limbs going numb from the lack of life giving oxygen provided by the crimson cells. A swirling black cloud of smoke, which he also choked on each time he tried to breathe, obscured his vision. From what he could tell through the smoke a leg was entangled with a seat’s crash webbing. It was the only thing that kept his hanging form from crashing to the twisted and sharp edged ceiling now floor. He had to get out of there and soon otherwise, he knew, he would suffocate on the oily black smoke or worse burn to death from the fire that was burning somewhere in the ship. Veers grabbed onto a dangling strap of the crash webbing and pulled himself up so that he could untangle his leg. He could not remember how he ended up in this position or back in the passenger compartment. At the moment he really did not care how, his concern was just to get away from the soon-to-be tomb. He held onto the webbing with his good arm as he yanked and pulled with his leg in an attempt to get free. Veers struggled with the crash webbing for what felt like eons. As more time seemed to pass to him, the more he struggled to get free and the more he began to choke on the dirty air. He knew he was going to die of suffocation first before he burned if he did not get his leg free. With a twist of his ankle, his booted foot slipped free of the crash webbing and Veers involuntary flipped to hang from the webbing by a hand. He dropped the remaining two feet of space between him and the jagged floor and made a dash for the ramp switch to leave the dead shuttle. The Colonel slammed the heel of his hand into the switch and heard gears and pistons groan and hiss in protest as the machine attempted to open its mouth. The ceiling parted slightly to allow a slash of light penetrate the oily smoke but was soon partially obscured as the smoke found its way through the small opening. Maximilian Veers squinted his eyes at the light and then stepped toward it. His foot brushed up against something soft and the Imperial instructor cast his eyes downward to see what he had hit. Veers choked on the smoggy atmosphere in the shuttle cabin from shock at seeing the sight of a bodiless head. Coughing, he knelt down beside the head and turned it over to see who it was that had been unfortunate to die by decapitation. He felt no remorseful emotions as he recognized the face of the Lorrdian. The woman’s terrified and shocked expression was frozen in place by her facial muscles constricting permanently in place upon death. "Looks like Death favored you more than me." He choked and pushed the head away before standing again. Veers stepped up to the ramp above him and grabbed on to the opening. It was wide just enough for him to squeeze his body through, but it was going to be a tight fit. Before he could pull himself up, a hand grabbed onto his ankle. "What the..." He exclaimed at the hand and followed the arm to the owner. "You." "Please...help me." She pleaded and choked on the air. "Why should I? You would have left me to die." Veers began to turn away. "And so you would do the same and be all that you claim we are?" Lana jabbed at him and he stopped reaching for the edge of the opening. "Some tough and compassionate Imperial. Ha. More like the ruthless and uncaring warmonger my people keep saying your kind are." He cringed. Something in the back popped loudly and a burst of flames shot forth from the engine compartment. The fire was beginning to spread rapidly now and neither of them had much time to continue to debate about his moral conscience. "Fine. Leave me to burn." She said in resignation. "Oh shut up." Veers snapped back and began helping her out from underneath a beam and a pile of earth and duristeel. Once he had her out, he lifted her up as best he could with an injured and good arm. Lana grabbed hold of the edge and began pulling herself through the small opening. She was half way through when something else ignited in the engine compartment and sending a river of flame flowing across the uneven surface of the ground. Fuel! Veers hurriedly pushed Lana's legs through the opening when he noticed the river of fire flowing in his direction.

	Part 2 of ? Chapter XVII - Tomb of Fire cont'd “Give me a hand!” He asked the female rebel as the last of her legs disappeared through the opening. Veers received no response from her nor did he see her reappear again. She left me! He realized and grabbed for the edge. Suddenly and without warning, the ramp closed on him and nearly clipping his fingers off in the process. The river of fire reached his position and he was forced to fall back in retreat. The fuel fed fire spread across the floor, consuming Leilonia’s head. He was trapped and suffocating inside a tomb of fire with no way out. A wall of burning flames blocked the controls to the shuttle ramp. “Lana!” He shouted for her help and did not really expect her to come back for him. For all he knew, she could have chosen to condemn him by closing the ramp shut again. Veers backed away from the fire and used his arms to shield his face from the searing heat radiating from the flames. With the way to the controls blocked, he had to find an alternate way out or find a way to get to the ramp controls or he would die. The Imperial chose to find another way out instead of facing the inferno in his way. He made a dash for the cockpit door, hoping that the viewscreen had been destroyed in the crash and providing an escape. When he reached the door and tried to open it both manually and by the control panel, he discovered much to his dismay that the door had been fused shut from the heat. He could feel the door was hot and knew that there was another fire on the other side. “LANA!” He choked while spinning around to start back toward the ramp. “Lana!” Colonel Veers began to choke, as less and less breathable air became unavailable to him. He pulled the rebel jacket over his face, trying to filter out the black smoke. His eyes stung and watered from the tiny specks of ash in the noxious cloud. The Colonel dropped to his knees choking and gasping. “Exar!” He desperately cried, hoping that the ghastly ghost would come to his summoning and save him from a fiery death. “I am here.” He heard rather than saw the Sith Lord. Veers brought his head up and watched as the flames took on a form and became his Master. “Help me...” He pleaded. “Then concentrate, my disciple.” Exar Kun replied and motioned toward the controls and the wall of flame. “Focus on the control panel or the fire and visualize how to manipulate either one with the Force.” “I don’t have time for these games!” Veers shouted angrily. Here he was dying and the Sith was teaching him the Force. “Then you will die.” And the flames flared upward as the image of Exar Kun disappeared. “No! Don’t leave me in here to die!” He choked and reached out with a hand where the Sith apparition had been. Realizing that Lana and the Dark Lord were abandoning him to die, Veers felt a malicious, scathing rage consume him.

	Part 3 of 3 Chapter XVII: Tomb of Fire cont'd He tried to think of a solution that would save his life without the help of either one of them. But each time he tried, the danger that was posed to him increased another notch, further trapping him inside the fiery tomb. The thoughts of being left to die further hindered his chances of escaping. Veers struggled to stay conscious, as his vision began to swim and his legs weakened beneath him. Sweat poured forth from his skin to briefly soak his clothing before the searing heat of the burning fuel boiled it away. He was ready to accept his fate when he could not think of a way out, “Ihn Socorri nyeve min bhiq suman ehn nyiad!” he cursed the two in Old Corellian, “Halle metes chun, petchuk!” Bone shards and tissues of brain exploded from the Lorrdian’s broiled skull to splatter everywhere and onto everything, including the Colonel. Upon feeling the brain matter striking his flesh, the intense feelings of rage and abandonment he once harbored faded from his mind. Resurfacing in its place was the deadly problem that he had yet to solve and a solution that he had handed to him. Surely the Sith Lord would really not have allowed his new apprentice to die so soon? Veers recalled the words Exar Kun had tried to tell him. He now understood that the specter had not abandoned him, but had given him the key he needed to make his escape. So while choking for fresh air, the Colonel focused his entire attention on the control panel. He concentrated on ignoring his surroundings and tuned his mind on the task at hand. He envisioned an invisible hand pressing in the controls to open the ramp and struggled to hold on to that image. Across the compartment and behind the burning flames, slowly the control switches began to react to an unknown force and with a click, the ramp that once had been closed now began to open with an agonizing hiss from the hydraulics. The sound caused Veers to lose his concentration, as he lifted his gaze to the reopened ramp. He almost shouted with triumphant excitement at his victory. Then someone jabbed a metal slab that belonged to the shuttle in between the opening, preventing the ramp from closing in on itself again. Then the face of Lana appeared much to Veers surprise. “Come on!” She urged him with a hand and then offered it to him. Without voicing the questions in his head or accusing her of attempted murder, he would address them later, Veers accepted the hand and with her help he was able to escape the fiery death that almost had become his fate.

	Thanks for the PM, Mitth--otherwise I would've missed THREE posts! Suspenseful and exciting as usual. As for the matter of the bulkhead door: I'd personally like to think that Lana is still an honorable soldier (though my Imperial side knows that this is quite a rare type for a Rebel to be ). And what is Exar Kun up to...? Please post again promptly! (But then again, look who's talking... ) slinks off to the thread she's planning to update... -----signature----- (Preparing for the imminent zombie apocalypse...)

	Here's a little trailer I posted in the Writer's forum. It has a sneak preview to upcoming chapters. BLUE CHISS COMPANY PRESENTS A CmdrMitthrawnuruodo Production and an Imperial Fan Fic ---- Maximilian Veers and Exar Kun in TALES OF THE GALACTIC EMPIRE SURVIVOR ---- NARRATOR (VOICE OVER) "One man alone and stranded on the fourth moon of Yavin..." EXT. JUNGLE FOREST A flock of avians caw in surprise and flutter away from their perches in the jungle trees as a smoking three winged object races across the sky to crash into the earth. Two X-wings fly over past and circle once before speeding away off to some distant monolithic step pyramids sticking out above the forest canopy. INT. SHUTTLE A survivor pulls himself out of the crashwebbing of his seat and looks around at the devastation of the crash in a daze. VEERS "Anybody alive?" INT. SHUTTLE A muffled groan and a cry for help. VEERS quickly digs into a mound of dirt and duristeel to free the man buried underneath. EXT. JUNGLE FOREST The two men are resting beneath a rotting log in a flowing river. The young officer looks deathly pale and VEERS is trying to keep him awake. Blood flows down stream from the injuries sustained by the young man. VEERS "What's your name?" PLISKIN, afraid "Pliskin, Lieutenant Andrew Pliskin. I don't want to die, sir." VEERS, lying "You're not going to die." NARRATOR (VO) "Must survive the harsh environment of the jungle..." EXT. CRASH SITE VEERS is carrying a young man out of the destroyed IMPERIAL SHUTTLE. Blood covers the young mans lower half and is gently flowing down VEERS arm and pant legs as he carries the injured officer away from the starship. A buzzing sound gradually grows louder and the two men look up in fear. VEERS, shouting "Piranha beetles!" EXT. CRASH SITE COLONEL VEERS runs from the crash site and the piranha beetles. He dashes through the jungle forest with the young man in his arms. NARRATOR (VO) "Escape the clutches of the Rebellion..." JAXON, yelling "You destroyed my homeworld!" VEERS, calm "Then it should not have rebelled!" EXT. JUNGLE FOREST JAXON draws his blaster to shoot the restrained VEERS but SID knocks his aim off with a sideswipe of a hand. SID "Put that away! He and the others will pay for their crimes in due time. Right now we need to get back to the base and fighting among ourselves won't accomplish that." NARRATOR (VO) "And resist the temptation of the Darkside..." INT. OBSIDIAN TEMPLE The illuminescent EXAR KUN stands near a large crystal, gesturing toward it with a ghostly hand. VEERS is standing a few meters away with LANA at his side. EXAR KUN, lying "Concentrate on focusing your energy and thoughts on the crystal to draw its power to you and you will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine!" VEERS, suspicious "I told you before I do not want any power of this kind." EXAR KUN "You have agreed to become my apprentice and you are bound to me!" LANA "He's a Sith, do not give in to his lies Colonel!" INT. OBSIDIAN TEMPLE EXAR KUN gestures with a hand and a stone slab suddenly slides in place behind VEERS, seperating him from LANA. The chamber suddenly goes black as the light from the tunnel is smothered by the closing slab. VEERS "Lana! LANA "Colonel!" EXAR KUN "There is nothing she can do to help you now, my apprentice!" INT. OBSIDIAN TEMPLE Manical laughter echos in the chamber and a surprised scream as something happens in the darkness. -------- NOW READING IN THE SAGA FORUM -----signature----- "Dyin' be the day worth livin' for!" --Captain Hector Barbossa PotC: Amuletum Angiti http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3635826/1/ http://s12.gladiatus.com/game/c.php?uid=48046
