Star Wars RP: Dark Council of Resurgence Sith Empire

Searching for information has proven narrow, but perhaps things would be more apparent after touching down to investigate.

 

Kegrag gasp for air as he gets pushed against wall and ignoring pain he quickly get up.
"It look like broken kitten wants to bite. Fair enough, let's tear apart her claws." He said smiling and cut off head of male acolyte as he charge against Vlita, with clear desire to kill her. It was a shame, killing such talent, but he don't want give her another chance.

 

Crystal wasted no time moving away from the clearing. When she felt she was far enough she stopped and searched the woman for any sort of tracking device or anything else that could help track her, just in case – no reason to make it easy for the woman's subordinates to find their commanding officer.

Once that was taken care of Crystal immediately made her way back to her guards and her ship, carrying her prize the entire time. “Strip her, search her thoroughly, and tie her up. Then wake her up – I have some questions for her...” The former thief commanded her subordinates.

 

"Acquiesces to their instructions and move the ship to a respectful distance." Maleficus instructed. "Inform them that we seek to open a dialogue with them to facilitate their induction into the Sith Empire; and that I am prepared to take a personal shuttle to meet with whomever they choose to represent them at a location of their desire."

Isis easily jumped back, distancing herself from the woman.

The acolyte stepped back surrounded by illusions. Darth Isis could feel her opponent's fear and panic as she fought of illusions - the woman only noticed her, as Sith blade emerged from her cleavage with her blood spilling. The woman gave a soft moan... then she died, her body leaning on Isis.

 

As Darth Ulria looked outside, he felt a chill of dark side, when he looked at the planet.



"We are approaching the planet. Where should we land?" Ashttat asked.

The most obvious location to land was the abandoned colony... but he felt something, in these mountains...

The act of decapitating the dead body seemed to enrage the disarmed sith as with a loud scream she rained lightning at Kegrag. He dodged, jumped, finally blocked the lightning with his blades, deflecting if back at the caster. As the stunned woman grunted, he ran her through with his blades, mortally wounding her.

As they stood still, two blades in Vlita's chest, she looked at him with disbelief in her eyes.

 

"Yes ma'am!" the guards answered.

Soon, she was informed of her orders were fulfilled.

As she entered the storage area, she found the woman naked, hands tied above her head with a rope hanging from the ceiling. One of the guards used a teaser to wake her up - which worked enough, as the moaning woman looked around, fearfully.

 

He could sense something at this distance? Must be powerful. And dangerous. Either useful or....

"Over the colony. Set coordinates here." He punched in what seemed like a reasonable distance away from the exact source to be spotted but would be quick to get to the ship if he needed. The stealth utility would help immensely at getting close without being picked up. Any sensors this planet had most likely had to be pretty outdated by now, that he could get close as long as he kept out of the range of being visibly spotted easily.

With his hands folded behind his back, he stared on, not looking directly at the acolytes as he observed the horizon.

"Now. You cannot tell me anything that I don't know, but give your status report, nonetheless. How well have you all prepared?"

He wasn't sure if they would have much more success finding anything if he couldn't, but he kept it in his typical old wise sith voice that the voice filter in his mask provided. Naturally, he had to lead them to believe he always knew more than they did and that anything they do couldn't surprise him. Playing it off as little more than another game, he internally was curious however. If one of them was able to find information when he could not, that certainly was something of value to favor them.

 

Isis holds the dying woman, leaning in to whisper in her ear. "Fear not, little morsel... I offer you as a blood sacrifice to my Goddess. You'll be in her arms for all eternity." She keeps the blade in, the ancient steel humming as it fulfills its purpose by robbing someone of life, and drinks in the rush of emotions from her victim, the terror, the regret at not having surrendered while she could, the rage at being killed. Finally, Isis pulls the blade free, pirouetting as she does so she's not showered in blood, and lets the body fall to the ground.

"Your false masters are all dead!" She calls to the panicked soldiers. "Now is the time to bow down and pledge your service!"

 

Kegrag shake his head with disappointed look at Vlita.
"If you stayed where you belong, you could live but you choose a different patch. Now you will perish." He said as he removes his blades from defeated Vlita.
"It look like Isis take care of last of your puppets. Before you die, do you want something to say? Curses, begs or some pleading?" He asked knowing that there is no point in trying to safe her. But anyway he was curious if that girl suprise him again.
He also call to soldiers.
" You seen what happened to these who oppose us. Submit or die like them! "

 

The time passed... finally, after around an hour the officer relayed back a message.

"They have sent coordinates - it's inside the city. They allowed the entrance of one shuttle with no more than five people." The comms officer relayed.

"You transport is ready, My lord." The other officer reported. Darth Maleficus's personal transport - the Fury class interceptor - old design but the ship was updated to modern standards.

 

"The stealth is operating without a problem." The acolyte reported. As they landed, they could see the structure from afar. It looked like it was abandoned some time ago... and it was not even robbed.



The acolytes reported standard preparations - checking the history of the place, preparing the equipment they might need... since they had no idea what they would be dealing with, it was impossible to prepare specialised equipment for a situation...

 

The woman fell on the ground with a thud.

She seemed to have ignored Kegrag's words entirely, but curiously, she started crawling... and with her remaining hand, she reached out and put her hand on the decapitated head's cheek. Then, with tears in her eyes, she died.

Spoiler: speech

The soldiers, seeing their leaders dead raised a loud cheer swearing their alliance to the SIth Empire and swearing themselves to the dark lords.

Two companies of light infantry along with transports were ready to serve...

 

@Regin34
Isis approaches Kegrag, a flush of victory on her face. "We split the two companies between us, as agreed?"

 

It wasn't too surprising to see they had little to offer, but more interesting was the structures of the place as they observed.

No obvious lack of damage from a cataclysmic event, but poorly maintained and taken care of. If he had to guess, then most likely the residents had left willingly. But he did know they hadn't evacuated, so something likely lured them.... He had a few theories of what could be the cause formulating, but nothing yet to really confirm anything. Perhaps, it was the darkness's will he be the one to take it then. Parlor tricks like this wouldn't work on him like they would on a bunch of random colony workers. It was somewhat a jump to conclusion, but one he felt could be a very real possibility, though certainly not the only one.

As they touched down, he disembarked with some caution.

His earliest theory he decided to test as soon as he stepped out and was at a closer distance was trying to sense anything force related. If he felt something planet wide, there must be something to this and he'd be able to narrow it down more accurately touching down on the surface.

 

Kegrag chuckled at that scene.
"O, I accidently killed your lover? If he would be wiser, he could live with you, but you two choose other wise." He said and turn to Isis.
"It look like we win and yes, we split companies between us."
He said turn to soldiers.
"From this day, one company is follow Darth Isis, and one if follow me, Darth Kegrag. Officers step out!" He comand.

 

Two officers stepped forward.

"Captain Guybra Allcawt." The man introduced himself.



"Captain Hutre." The Zabrak female saluted.

 

Kegrag look at zabrak female.
"Alright capitan Hutre, now you and your men are under my comand. Take your men and transport them to Temple and await for my orders. How many of you are in ready to combat?"

 

Spoiler: Dark side

20+12

The dark side was strong in this place... it was strong in the colony, but... muted... something happened in the colony, but now... it was as if it was... moved.

But there was something somewhere else, strong, dark, dangerous, lurking... but still, it was not aware of the Darth Ulria and his party...
