Darious watches The other Team moving out with The Speeders. He gives them a headstart before he activates his Jetpack and ascends, heading for The Majors Hideout to clean it up from The filthy traitors who crossed him.
The advisor nodded and got up. "The planet Xarvor, is a minor 3rd rate world - you can meet many of those in wild space. Few years ago, we were just a world like that. The planet is divided into three warring states. A republic, monarchy and Military Junta. The monarchy has reached out to us with a proposition of opening trade - the various metals they offer, could be used in heavy industry and starship production... that is, if we had ways to build it. The catch is, that the offer came with a marriage proposal, to you, Jedi Lord."
Man shook his head. "The ship was not stocked with any equipment at the time we hijacked it. We did so too early." He said with regret. The storage full of military equipment would really help.. "But what we would trade with them?" He paused. "Unless you want to go on a pirate spree..."
"Political marriages have been a common practice for thousands of years. That hasn't changed. On paper, the offer sounds good from a logical standpoint. What do we know about the nobility? Can we expect them to hold up their end of the deal? If their planet is divided, it raises a question if they are even particularly liked by their people. It wouldn't do to align with someone whose soon to get deposed or called in to fight in their wars while we still have pirate fleets harassing us. Whose currently in the strongest position of their states? We need to know more before we decide on the best course of action. It might be an alternative to send troops in to support the republic in a war of liberty. Our men are still green, but combined with another army, they would greatly outnumber the enemy and the casualties probably wouldn't be too great as well as them finally starting to get some proper experience under their belt. What's the projected military strength to our own of these groups?" Mardica partly debated the idea. She was hesitant. But she couldn't refuse what benefits the entire planet just over her own base reluctance. "And more importantly, what do we have to give up in exchange?"
Daltar chuckles, standing. "We can leave the saber here, if you think you can kill them all without it." The admiral prepares for the doors to open. "Well, I suppose I'll have to 'embellish' a bit. Either way, we have to actually capture her, before we think about what to do to her." Daltar's hands slide around the blue skinned woman's waist, sliding down to grope her ass, as he leans in to kiss her possessively. Anyone outside the shuttle when the doors open, will be treated to the sight of the admiral playing with his slave.
"Ah. Damn. Guess we should have taken a fully stocked ship then." Sarah sighed, "I guess that's our only choice, this ship should have some powerful tractor beams. Let's go find us some unlucky pirates. I'm sure they have a ship they wouldn't mind losing." She said with a grin, telling the droid to change course to pirate infested space instead.
The man slowly shook his head. "I know little about the leaders or the groups itself. In the world that is contested, the rebels are actually loosing - they are desperate. The second world holds extremists that are eliminating any and all empire workers. Most of it is political purges." Will said with distaste.
Darious's team jumped after him. "Oya! Oya! Oya!" They chanted as they followed him. Let's hunt was what they were chanting. They took to the skies. As they flew over the city, they have seen several areas where heavy fighting took place. The chaos was one of the reasons for lower-income of Darius faction. As they approached the major's villa, they saw the fight already started. On the ground level, the already first group engaged the heavily fortified defenders. As the fighting took place, the defenders were concentrated on the first group - giving it hard time. The defenders had numbers, The Nest had quality.
"The planet was ruled by the monarchy until the times of The Empire. At that time, the royalty was degraded to an honorary position. After the death of the Emperor, The royalty organised to take back their... heritage. The Junta is lead by the former imperial governor, who decided to create an independent state. Republicans decided it was the right time to try their own version of democracy. All sides are rather bloody in their dealings." The advisor paused. "The problem we are facing here is that we have no ships to transport fleets or support craft. The pirates are a real threat to any operations we would undertake." The advisor paused again. "Our planet is an Agri-world, so food would be what we would be trading mostly... I think."
Darious lands with 10 Warrior spread out on The Rooftops over them, shooting Them from above while he ordered The remaining 10 Warriors to stay in The Air and force them out of any potential Cover they might hide in. With His integrated Helmet commlink he Orders Stantors Team to advance forward.
The blue woman answered eagerly, taking her role as save, as the door opened. The armed pirates escorted the duo to the bridge. They were surrounded by numerous armed guards. Inside, sitting on a throne, the Twi'lek captain smiled seeing them. "Welcome Admiral." Aigir'ritar leaned back on her throne. "It's good to meet you in person." She smirked leaning forward, putting her chin against her hand, giving a better view of her cleavage. "I have to ask, what offer, you wanted to present me with?"
The man thinks for a moment. "That is a good idea... if you know where to find pirates. I doubt you will find any wanting to attack a star destroyer..." He looks at the map. "Hutt space is a good place to hunt, but going blind in circles... maybe we should try decoy? Or find Pirate's base somehow?" He paused in thought.
"Yeah, let's head to Hutt space. We're going to dismantle the Hutts anyway, may as well start with their pirates." Sarah replied with a nod, "And if we're lucky, you might be able to make new kinds of droids." She said with a smile, before ordering a droid to jump to the nearest Hutt space.
Daltar bows before the 'queen'. "I see the tales of your beauty are not exaggerated. In fact, what I've heard pales in comparison to the real thing." He puts on a veneer of aristocratic charm, but she can still see him clearly leering at her breasts, seeming like your average perverted old man. "I wasn't aware of who I was dealing with when I entered the system, but now that I know who you are, and have seen an example of your tactical thinking in action, I'd like to propose a deal." Slowly, very slowly, Daltar takes the lightsaber, offering it to Aigir'ritar. "A gift, to show my respect. A lightsaber taken from a Jedi traitor killed during the purge, and later wielded by an inquisitor. There are few lightsabers left in the galaxy. I hope it pleases you." Daltar steps back after giving her the weapon. "I'd like to hire your services, queen." Daltar caresses Chil'van's ass, to anyone looking just seeming like a pervert who can't keep his hands to himself. In reality, he taps her skin in code. Do you think you can handle this many?
Katarina decided to wait for return of Sasha. "Before we leave, let's check all battle system of "Sparrow", I want to have everything working just in cause of something unexpected." She said to Will and headed to enginer and plans of ship.
@unisol_gr44 The ship was drifting in space, the course yet to be set. The bridge was busy. There were still scratches of blaster fire after the... fight that took place. Captain Jaheer Mohn's supporters were mostly officers, but rank and file and young, lowlevel officers stayed loyal to the Empire. Thus, the ship was in 80% still manned. As Orson looked over the datapad, he was approached by young communication's officer. "Sir, I have been listening to imperial comms, and it looks there were a few splinter groups from imperial order already." The man paused. "We also received an invitation from the smuggler the Captain was in contact with. It seems she is asking for a meeting - something about help in latest contraband..."
Having taken control of the ship, Orson had to weigh his options. It seemed the Empire was fraying apart at the seams with the unifying presence of Emperor Palpatine gone. The young officer looked up from his datapad, looking at his subordinate, 'I knew it would have been foolish to think that Captain Mohns was alone with ideas of making it on their own. They'll just get mopped up by the Rebels one by one.' He raised an eyebrow at the news, 'I suppose we should've put out a memorandum that Mohns wasn't in command anymore. Even before his outright treason against the Empire, that man was corrupt to the core... I still have to decide what to do with that slave he kept in his quarters.' He thought for a moment, 'Set up the meeting with the smuggler, the least we can do is arrest her for her attempt at bribery.' 'Oh, and try to find out who has any real authority left... did we get any word from Coruscant or fleet headquarters?' Orson asked the junior officer.
Darious connected to Santor as he landed on the roof and passed his orders. "The resistance was heavier than predicted - the enemy is tightly dug in." There was a noise of blaster. "They have heavy repeating blaster - I already lost few warriors to the fire-" "ANNN!" the scream interrupted the rest of report as Thardostan attacked Darious, striking him. The baster flew from his hand as the reptile threw him against the wall.
Panza looked at Sarah with a thought. "Maybe... a proper decoy... with a locator... could bring us straight to their base." He looked over her, his eyes stopping on her chest and ass. "Yes... an appropriate decoy..."
No problem Was the reply. "An Imperial wanting to cooperate with pirate." The pirate queen laughed. "What exactly do you want and what do you offer?" She asked looking at him curiously.
