Orbit over Koba

Koba was a wasteland. There was no reason for anyone to be there. Even the 'natives' existed simply because they could not escape. High above the planet, bathing in the glow of the stars came a ship, Darkness Rising.

The ship slowly descended through the atmosphere, trying to attract as much attention as possible.

It worked. When the ship landed, a group of humans had already approached it. The corvette's departure ramp extended, and the simple people of this planet were met with a frightful sight.

Four stormtroopers, their armor shined to perfection, walked out, taking guard positions next to the ramp.

Next descended a man dressed in simple dark robes, his eyes carefully sizing up the people as he kneeled before the entrance way.

Finally, a man slowly strode down the ramp, dark polished stormtrooper armor, and a long flowing cape adorning his body. He had no helmet, and so, his face seemed to burn into the skulls of every person present. He motioned for his apprentice to rise, and then he strode to the obvious leader of the assembled people.


"You are their ruler."

"Yes..."

He nodded, then gestured with one hand, using Force Push to throw the man into a nearby rock. Blood began gushing from the man's broken skull, as the onlookers screamed in terror and outrage.

The man used Fear to turn their outrage into a furthering of terror. Then he motioned to his stormtroopers, who opened fire on the people, stunning all of them in seconds.



"Put them in the prison cells. Began capturing as many of them as you can."

The stormtroopers nodded and began racing through the streets of the village, stunning anyone they could find.

He turned to his apprentice.


"There is a valley to the south. Drop the elderly, sick, and crippled off there. Then take the AT-PT and slaughter them. Use the Force to track them."

He then stalked back aboard the ship to receive more training from his Sith master.

"Something wrong, Jedi?"

The Jedi ((haven't decided on a name yet)) turned. "Yes, Your Honor. I feel very strange, very queasy. I feel something bad's about to happen."

Knowing what Jedi are fully capable of, the judge felt very concerned indeed. Then, a guard approached.

"Jedi, we have a report from the investigators at the air disturbance area. Seems like they came up with nothing." He handed the Jedi a report showing a huge 450-m gap in the air around the surface.

"What? This is preposterous. There's clearly something there!"

The guard looked again. "Oh...oh my..."

Suddenly, the Jedi knew. Whoever here must be very dangerous indeed. "Get me out there. I'll take a look myself."

The landing parties withdrew into the shuttles, which in turn blasted away from the surface and out of range.

They were replaced with the X-wing fighters. Like ravenous birds of prey, they swooped in on the bunkers, pricking it with rapid laserfire before driving a proton torpedo into it (1 for each bunker).

Eriadu


Delmion slept, a fitful sleep plagued by dark images.

Fire . . . burning white hot . . .

A Star Destroyer, looming large . . .

Corpses . . . decaying, dessicated . . . accusing eyes . . .

Voices, roaring, chanting . . . condemning . . .

A sword, tarnished and stained . . . a shield, broken and cleaved . . . armour, bloodied and marred . . .

Lights . . . beautiful lights!

A gift . . .

Fire . . . white hot fire . . .

Delmion awoke with a start. Drenched in sweat, he sat upright, running clammy hands through his sodden hair.

Swallowing heavily, he reached for the glass of water on the sidetable, and drank it in one long gulp.

Throwing back the regulation sheets, he padded to the shower unit and stripped off. Activating the unit, he stepped into the cubible and let the warm water run over him. He replayed the images in his mind. They were jumbled, but he had a sense that they were familiar somehow. He just couldn't place it.

Towelling himself dry, he almost instinctively reached for the bottle of whisky on the table.

No. Be strong.

He wasn't an alcoholic. He knew that. But he was close to being one. Too close. The strain on him was immense. The Republic was crumbling, one piece at a time. The images from Toprawa were horrific.

But the image of the lone soldier on the roof stayed with him. The strength he drew from that image was immense. An inspiration, if he told the truth.

One lone soldier.

Toprawa


Major Briggs stood in the makeshift command centre that comprised Toprawa Base. Nothing more than a cave deep inside a mountain range with jury-rigged consoles and readouts, it was the best they could do in the time they had.

Soldiers were straggling in to fallback points all over the planet, and being rerouted to fire-bases for further actions.

As far as Briggs knew, he was the only rsnking officer left on the planet, and that made the resistance his command. A huge undertaking, but he didn't dwell on it. Not yet, anyway.

Briggs had deployed teams of scouts out to observe Imperial teams and movements.

"It has been done, General," Vice Admiral Gere Poitiers said. "Good work. And may I say that I stand by you all the way."

High General Hortan Monroe nodded. "Good, Admiral. I will need your help in the upcoming engagement. Commander Borges has updated me on the Toprawan situation, and we've formulated a plan."

He pointed to a close-up map of the Toprawan system. "We will exit here, just a light-year shy, and act as a reserve. Are all equipment and refitting ready?"

"Yes, General. We launch on your command."

Thyferra, IGC central office, midnight

Under cover of night over a hundred Vratix made their way to the IGC central office through the backdoors and side passages. All were posing as personal servants to the IGC central staff and had documents to prove it, which were in fact authentic. These vratix were hired as servants for the IGC. Though not their true nature.

The Vratix servants also brough inside large sealed boxes of equipment under the supervision of human overseers. The crates were labeled as medical supplies and the IGC had provided authentic documentation therein to help the Vratix avoid Imperial scrutiny. They passed unnoticed amoung the nighttime bustle of laborers in the city.

Thyferra, IGC landing platform, next morning.

The shuttle from Platfrom Intergalactic came to a peaceful, unobtrusive, rest on the landing platform. Admist the flurry of post flight checks and disembarking passangers stood one.

He had come here with a mission, and now it was time to fufill it.

First stop was a local comm booth, where he called up the number of a local Foodstuffs service known to him. A man's voice answered.

"Yeah, what do you want?"

"Did you get the money?"

There was a pause for a few seconds as the man thought, then realized who he was talking to. "Yes I did. Is it time?"

"Yes. Wait two more days."

"Got it. Same place?"

"Yes."

With that, he disconnected the holophone. Walking to the main IGC building, he swiped his identity card in the door and entered, then made his way to the administrator's office to check if everything was in order for the evening's launch.

As ther Jedi began to approach, seemingly alone, Gonin Smiled as he Looked him over though See Force. he would be an easy kill, if Gorin so wished it, but that was not his intnet. Nevertheless he had Ehele close by, and as the Jedi approached ((If he's alone, if not i'll put in a second Part.)) the Ship Decloaked, but was immediately wrapped in illusions to make it invisable, except to thye Jedi, whom Gorin had allowed to peirce his illusion. ((If he's not alone incude this next part)) and illusioned the sensors and targeting computers of the Troops outside again. A voice boomed in the jedi's head saying, though Telepathy Come Jedi, welcome to my home. plese enter, but leave your weapons outside, for you will have no need of them. ((If he's not alone incude this next part)), and call off your new Republic lackeys, i will speak to you alone or not at all.

As smart as he is cunning, he is deftly capable of multitasking a normally mindboggling number of issues. As Cast's administrative assistant, he knows much of what is going on, and has therefore hired a Defel, or wraith bodyguard.

Thyferra

Frej frowned at the conflicting reports coming through from the Intelligence Security Service on the ground.

The Vratix remained silent of what they knew was going on, but this ran contrary to these images of Vratix leaving postings for short times, to meetings unknown.

"Pause". He asked the computer, as the image freezed on two vratix guiding some boxes past the Overseer guards.

It was all very mysterious, and almost forboding. The Governor had just left on other business, and now Frej was in charge.

He was investigating this strange rumour swirl on the streets that members of Intergalactic had somehow infilitrated his society, possibly to break the monopoly.

How the kriff did they get on planet?

It was all too much. He would have to calm himself, and act on instincts. What advantage did he have?

Well, the obvious. He had one of the strongest Defense fleets of any planet outside of the Core.

And of course, the high Intelligence presence amongst his security force. Sending a silent prayer off to the day Lavos invaded and the Confederacy took over operations, he contacted the division and sent all of the information and analysis back, with a tag asking for a division to investigate.

And then, he banked a few more credits for insurance. Keying the comm, he contacted Rear-Admiral Rachle.

"Madame, I have information that suggest we have multiple entities that have somehow managed to infilitrate our defense net, and landed on planet, possibly multiple times. Reinforce the defense screen, even if you have to board every damn ship, I don't want ANYTHING to get through without properly screened clearance."

The Rear-Admiral nodded deeply, then smiled. "Consider it done. My Fleet will not fail."

THe image faded, and within minutes the Destroyer's began to re-orientate their formation.

Before Mr.Dys left the LEC representative told him he would just pick up the generator before he left. He then walked out of the room and walked to his ships. He sent a transmission to the main and can told the Admiral to send the 12 Galloway Transport ships with 500 Droids and the mining equipment.

Group I came out of hyperspace, and systemwide jamming commenced immediately. The 4 ISD II?s forward ion cannons focusing fire on the nearest ISD. While there was no time to calculate firing solutions, the ships were close enough to score significant hits. Once the firing solutions came in, they were able to wreak even more havoc.

TIE fighters were on full alert and ten were on duty at all times, patroling a two hundred kilometer radius around the garrison. The stormtroopers were always ready, there job was to be. Word had been sent to Yaga Minor. Soon more garrisons would be up, and this one would be better. Stronger. A fortress. Until then, the base continued patroling.

IC: Toprawa

The three Destroyers fell into formation, sharing their shields.

The General thought of a good way to get the rebels to pay attention. He began firing star shells, sending a message to the Rebel ships in battle code: STOP FIRING. break. IF YOU DO NOT CEASE. break. WE EXECUTE ONE HUNDRED REBEL PERSONNEL EVERY TEN SECONDS. break. WE BEGIN NOW. end.

The captured rebel crewers of the Destroyer that had once guarded Toprawa were vented into space. One hundred bodies flew out. There were nearly 20,000 crewers. This process could continue until they were all dead as far as the General was concerned. The Rebels would have to make a choice. Try and save Toprawa or allow their companions to die.

The lead Destroyer targeted one of the Rebel Destroyers and fired. The two other Destroyers followed in turn. Fighters were launched and began engaging their rebel counterparts.
