Republic to Empire to Republic: A Star Wars group thread IC

[LoganDarkHolme]

Smoke walked through the streets of Mos Eisley, his black hooded cloak keeping his body hidden beneath its folds, his hood pulled low to hide his face, to anyone else he just looked like all the other thugs that roamed these mean streets.

Unknown to anyone else however he was stalking his target, Information he'd obtained regarding the whereabouts of a lost Sith Holocron, thought lost since before the republic, the Sith Holocron of Dazru Belias a Great sith master of her Time, his eyes narrowed as he closed in.

On the outskirts of Mos eisley he hung back, hiding in the shadows of the last building in town, as the sun began to set he took time to trance out, gathering his strength for the sure to be quick and dis-appointing battle against this weak rodian, he looked to the Sky, narrowing his eyes as he felt a slight ping of something, an awareness he hadnt sensed before.

Shaking his head to clear his thoughts he looked about and realized he'd lost sight of his target, growling to himself he stretched out with the force, realizing that his target had hopped a land speeder and was now heading west at a high rate of speed he tapped his wrist Comm and called for his bike, as it landed next to him he mounted up, using the Force to Guide him in the perfect stealth of Pitch black that had now settled in he took chase of his target.


Following the Rodian to his home he watched the pathetic excuse enter his domicile, drawing his saber he advanced on the house, as he listened he heard the rodian moving to the back of the building, using the force he opened the door and stepped in, removing his hood from his head he looked around, his brow furrowing somewhat,

Suddenly he caught movement and ignited his saber just as 6 shots where let loose from the Rodian's pistol, he flicked his saber in a quick arch deflecting 3 of the bolts to the walls, then twirled his blade to the next 2 bolts, reflecting them back at the rodian's knees causing him to collapse, and the last laser Bolt jolted the blaster from the Rodians hand. As quickly as he drew his saber he deactivated it and replaced it on his belt, he advanced on the screaming rodian.

after an hour he left the now dead rodians home, having acquired some information on his object of desire he walked from the home, and back to his bike, before mounting however he turned to face the rodians home, out stretching his right hand bolts of violet lightning streaked from his fingers instantly engulfing the home in flame, mounting his Bike he vanished into the Dark, Cold, Night

As he returned to his ship he stored his Bike and locked it into its place with the Mag lock he'd recently installed, as he laid his Robe over the pilots chair he reached up and tapped the Buttons that brought a slow hum through his ship, as the generators came to life in the engine room of his Sith Intercepter ship he sighed and rubbed his eyes, he'd been hunting for the information about this Lost Holocron for almost a year now, he was getting closer, he could feel it, but he was always just out of reach of his goals.

Looking to one of his control panels he reached up and flipped a switch, hearing the rumbling of his Aft Deck ramp closing he waited till he got the Green Light that it was closed and sealed, he settled back into the pilots chair, looking out at the darkness he opened himself to the force, letting it flow through him, rejuvinating his tired body, not having slept for almost a week and a half he continually called apon the force to fuel the fire of his hatred and re-energize his body to keep him awake and alert but eventually he would need sleep, even the greatest Sith Masters had to sleep,

he looked over as he heard his Computer Chime, grumbling some he spoke out, his voice was a Deep rich sound, not overly baritone but it was deep enough.

"what is it Central"

the Female Voice of his Ships advanced Computer Core spoke

"im sorry to bother you master Smoke but sensors are picking up mulitple Lifeforms approaching the ship, scans reveal them to be the Humaniod Species known as Tusken's, sensors indicate at least 20, they are a vicious lot...."

"Central, Shut Up, i know about the Tuskens,"

the Female Voice replied
"Yes captain"

as he cursed himself again he considered just taking off, leaving the planet and settting the ship into orbit but after todays pitiful hunt he thought at least the tuskens might prove more of a challenge, taking up his saber he walked out the back hatch and towards the Bow of the Ship, his vision not as good in the dark as is it in day light he summoned the force to enchance his other senses, as they surrounded him he blocked out their harsh screeches and what he considered was they way of convying their hatred of his kind a grim smile appeared on his face.

As he ignited his saber he lost himself to his rage, lancing out with saber and force alike he made short work of the tuskens the battle lasting all of 10 minutes, it would have been over sooner but more then once he stopped just to torture a tusken or three with his sorcery, bringing their own deepest fears to the consciousness he laughed and marveled at how ruthless they were against their own kind as they lost themselves in the force induced madness.

As he returned his ship he launched and immediatly headed into orbit, ensuring his ships safety he retreated to his quarters and laid down, exhaustion over taking him within minutes he fell into a deep slumber

Wilcus stepped off of the shuttle in front of the Jedi temple. The council wanted to see him. He expected that it was yet another mission. After entering the temple he makes his way up to the upper floors and waits for the cousil to summon him into their presence. Once he was called he entered the room and faced the council. They congratulated him on his recent sucesss during a mission. His next mission was to go to a planet called Tatooine and protect an imortant person from the dangers posed by the sith and other forces.

OOC: tired and lazy right now, will post again tomorrow to expand on this.

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

Far out in the Dune sea were hidden caves. Bones lay scattered in its hearth as a lone figure walked threw the cave. Heels crunched the earth of scattered bones from the Kyrat dragon that had once lived. In her right hand was the pearl that she ahd taken from its body. Enough to buy off the information to one fo the other clues that lead to the holocron. So far Saphira had two of the clues. The last one the more crucial of the components.

"So close..."


Her voice whispered. Breaking the stone silence as she drew camp for the evening. So far the tuskan raiders have left her alone. Seclusion was a decent brightness in her life right now as she started the fire. Dressed in Black with traces of silver that lined her sleevs and belt there was nothing more striking with her beauty. Yet, with that beauty was a cold and curel killer. Bent on the lust of blood and the hunt for the kill. She was a Twi'lek. Suprisingly diffrent then many of her own people. Red skin an dblack flamed body markings that covered the sides of her face, down her lek and all her body. Born with the marking as she was with the force.


It had taken years. Yet what she had masterd took many muc longer as she pressed out to draw more power. Her duel bladed saber clung to her belt among the pouches and her Sith Blade Osiris. Beautifull but deadly and et her anger and lust wasnt quenched.


"Power.. "


She whispered again as the flames licked the cooling air. Heat swelled from the ground as she rolled her pallet out from her pack. The ship she came in on was saftly back in the city as her speeder bike lay covered in a rocky corner only feet away.


"So very soon...."


Saphira replied as she rested her eyes. Taking a few hours to sleep as she mediated to regain lost energy. Her body achign for somethign more of a fight. Even the dragon offered nothing....

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

waking from his slumber aboard his ship he sat up, not realizing just how tired he had been it had been over 12 hrs since he'd laid down, shaking off the residual wariness from his long slumber he sat down in his chair and clicked on his comm, as he listened to what had been sent to him once piece of info caught his attention, another mention of information pertaining to A holocron once belonging to a sith lord, he brought his ship to full power and once more headed to teh surface of tattoine, as he passed over the dune sea the hairs on the back of his neck prickled, he felt a small shimmer in the force, it was brief but it was of Dark side origin, he didnt know where it was, having only sensed it for mere seconds it had vanished as quickly as it had appeared, he swung his ship around and landed, powering down his ship he did a quick sensor sweep, picking up multiple lifeforms he just assumed they where animals or more tuskens in the area, shrugging he opened the aft hatch of his ship and departed, sealing the door behind him he let go a sigh,

"now, lets see if i can find out where that shimmer came from, "

he settled himself down and closed his eyes, taking a few deep breaths he reached out with the force, whatever he had sensed had truely vanished, the only thing he had felt through the force was the lifeforms on tattoine, frowning he reached into his pack and checked his rations then set out, his hooded cloak rustling as gently as a nights breeze in the air he trekked into the Dune sea

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

She had not been out for more then a couple hours. The dark clouded sky made things appear more sinister to the pale amount of light that she had from the fire. To which was now dying as she opened her eyes and called a log of timber over to the fire. Feeding it as her silver eyes reflected the fire. It was in that moment that she felt something as well. Out in th dune sea. Comming closer. She reached out with the force and felt it. Another force user and this one Dark as well.

"Well, well.. Looks like I'll be havign company..."

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

Smokes head whipped around, this time it didnt hide itself, he felt another presence, his hand instinctively went to his saber, but he called himself back, shaking his head he changed coarse, grabbing up his Nightvision binoculars he scanned the horizen and zoomed in, taking recon he spotted the entrance to a few caves all within a few minutes walk, out of the tunnels he decided to just start from the middle and work his way outwards from there, his guard up he moved cautiously leaving his pack in the sands of the dune sea, from this point it would only be a hassle.


He was better on foot, his eyes scanned the area, althought it was pitch black his eyes had time to adjust and he could see now, in the light of tattoines moon he called out through the force, to provoke whatever it was he felt, he knew it was connected to teh dark side, he thought briefly he might be walking into a fabled Krayt dragon layer and smirked, it would prove more of a fight then the tuskens he'd killed just as this night had begun


"alright, i can feel you, "

he looked left and right, as he hit the rocks and started to walk up them, he drew on his powers, readying himself for a battle against anything, his head jerked right as he heard the rocks above him shift

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

" I can feel you too..."


She whispered back and leapt up into the air as the rocks fell. He woul dassume for that split second that the being was still there. Saphira landed only feet away. The light from her cave only around the corner as she flipped the activation switch to one side of her lightsaber. The deadly hum brightoned the frame of her face. Angered eyes dncing in the light that they had.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

he'd heard the whisper and for a fraction of a second it took him to register the voice he heard the all too familiar hum of a lightsaber igniting behind him, calling on the force he launched himself into the air, twisting mid point he landed on the rocks above facing this saber wielding female, as he hit the rocks he called his saber to his hand and flourished it with a twist of his hand simultaneously activating both beams he dropped into the Djem tu IV stance twisting his saber between his hands he brought it to the ready and cracked his neck, his baritone voice carried out over the wastes

"so your the one i felt as i came into the atmosphere, very clever to hide yourself, i might not have found you had you stayed hidden, but now that ive found you, i will have to kill you, none may know that the Sith Live, "

He hissed and launched himself into the air, twirling his saber above him he landed 6ft in front of her using his momentum he pushed off the ground, his saber going into a more loosely based flurry he swung the back blade of his saber at her knees

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

"I can say the same..."

Saphira hissed and droped into her own defensive stance. Her eyes darkened to black opals. The rage burning in her veins added to the lust of the fight. Pivoting on the sands she smiled.

"I am the Sith...."


Without another word she called forth from the ground jagged rocks from the ground. Pointed rocks of daggers as she shot them up at him. It was easy with the planet one large rock and filled with sand. Teh ground shook and split withen seconds as she surrounded him. Unable to just simple side-step he would have to leap into the air...

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

"I am the Sith"

He outright laughed, mocking her, he halted his advance as her offense took form, he cursed, his anger fueling his powers he bounced from one rock to another, he knew she was forcing him up, but he had no choice, he was gunna have to take this fight to the air or her attack would do him harm, as he climbed he focused his powers, searching out with the force he found her, his eyes tinting slight black his fingers began to weave the intricate symbols needed for his spell,

he summoned Force Fiends before her, Drawing from her mind her deepest Fears and bringing them to light as a temporary distraction so he might regain his grounding he only prayed it bought him the time he needed

"alright, lets see just how strong you really are"

He cleared the last of the rocks with a Force jump, he looked around his saber at the ready should his spell have failed

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

wow, i like that look lol

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

Long ago she had ride her fears. There was nothng that her black heart could be afarid of. There was no family, lovers or even friends or comrads. The attack was wasted as she looked up into the air.

"Fool.."

She cursed and as he was in the air she pulld a mound of sand. Creating a wall that blocked her and him as a window would. With sheer force she streached it and sent thousands of small rocks, and grits of sand to fluy at him> At the speed she held he couldn't block them all. Many would cut and tear up itno his flesh...

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

He bellowed in rage, as he back flipped in mid air he deactivated his saber and holstered it, he knew he couldnt avoid them all but he would make her think twice about trying it again, as the rocks began to strike him he used the pain, the anger, his powers intensified he lashed out the Lightning streaking out in 10 violet arc's jumping from one rock to another instantly dis-integrating them.

The rocks he missed bit into his flesh, ripped his cloak, as his lightning faded off he knew the ground was coming up fast, not even the force could help him avoid gravity, he flipped one last night and hit the dirt in a crouch, lashing out he unleashed a massive Force wave in all directions his eyes going darker yet.

He felt the blood running from his cuts, his anger, his pain, they fueled him, invigorated him, with one last bellowing roar the force wave expanded covering a good 20 ft around him, as it died he raised to his feet drawing his saber he ignited it, pure rage flowing from him, it seemed as if the very air around him was warping,

Spitting Blood he spoke

"you are very good, your the best ive fought in the longest time, why are you on this back water planet"

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

She could feel his rage. The anger and hae boiling and electrified her own senses as Saphira smiled. The lash of power was only a ti p on the surface of her power. Little did he know exactly what she could do. However, even as the crackled lightening whipped threw she felt the power building until he unleashed the force wave.


Saphira had only time to curse as she used force push to try and soften the blow. Lifted back she was flug into the cavern walls with a slam. Her head and lek hitting that it brought outright pain to her senses. Screaming in rage she blocked the pain. Moving stiffly to her feet as she snarled. The outter robe of her cloak had now fallen off to reveal her form and all in all .. species.


"That.. Is my own business..."

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

"that.... is my own business"

He snorted and rotated his shoulders, this battle was wearing, on them both, he could see her stiffness, and.......curves........he watched as she disrobed only to realize he'd been fighting a twi'lek, he took a moment to take in her curves, and smiled,

"well maybe i can help you with your business, i too happen to be here on business"


He ignited his saber, dropping back into stance

"it seems that we are evenly matched when it comes to use of the force, it would seem we are at a stalemate.....so.....its your move"

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

She didn't miss the flicker of his eyes looking her over. Apparently he hadn't expected a femalelike her. Not many did, nor would. Saphira never flaunted herself around like a common women. Her body was rarly used as a distraction. Such as now she didn't care as she drew to another stance. She was already wearing out from the fight. Yet the aching muscles felt good. Knowing she was still alive..


"No one comes here for pleasure.. I seek only power... Information.."



Saph gave him another look. Not beign able to tell much of the human that was before her. Still she raised her left eye. HInting at what she was after.

"I have some already... "

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

"No one comes here for Pleasure...I seek power.....information"


he nodded to her words

"aint that true of all of us, i too am in search of a powerful item, and i am close to achieving that goal, im just after the last piece that will tell me what i need to find that power, then i will return to the republic and crush them once and for all, "

he settled himself, de-activating his saber he stood tall, removing his chewed up cloak, he was not small man himself, standing at 6ft4, tanned skin, his hair was cut short, his eyes hidden in the darkness of the night, even in the moons light she could see his figure, his black cloths fit tightly against his body, his arms where bare under the cloak, as to be unhindered in combat by clothing that may get caught in the cross fire, his arms alone were well toned but not overly muscled, he flexed his right arm, and rolled his shoulder to loosen the muscles up some.

"well it seems we are at a stand still, so i have a proposal, return with me to my ship, and we can talk, it would seem in our best interest to work together as we would be more likely to accomplish our own ends, the artifact i am after was said to contain all the knowledge of the sith master Dazru Belias, "

He laid out that little tid bit of information and left it at that,

"i will admit, my ship only has one set of quarters, so one of us...woudl have to sleep in the pilots chair.....or...........we could ........get to know each other..........

 

[Aleia_Dreycon]

Oh that was abrut. Sharign information with a rival Sith? This intruged Saphira beyond a doubt as she too lowered her weapon and shut it off. A wind then started to pick up and Saphira's lek twitched. A night sandstorm was blowing in and even in the cave she would suffer with breathing in sand. Yet when he mentioned mentioned the Ancient siths name she straighted.


"How do you know.. Never mind.... But you probably have one less of the puzzle pieces.. "


Her smile darkened. Admitting she too was looking for the holocron as her shoudlers rolled forward. The right popping and sent a shot of pain down her body from sleeping in hard awkward places for so long. The invitation he sent her was not un-welcoem.. but she didn trust him. Even more importanl;ty she ignored the.. getting to know you better...



"A Storm is approaching.. I ahve little chouice but to accpet your offer...."

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

A Storm is approaching.. I have little chouice but to accept your offer...."

He nodded to her words, he looked around, locating his pack not far off he threw up his hand and called it to him, reaching in he grabbed his Comm and signaled his Speeder, within minutes it glided in and landed,

"i have good reasoning to believe you have a speeder near by, however time being of the essence it would be prudent to just ride back with me, we can retrieve your Bike in the morning after the storms passed,"

he watched as she nodded, he mounted the bike and scooted up some so she had room, once he was sure she was securely on, he gunned the engine, within minutes they were back at his ship, opening the hatch he walked up the ramp of his Sith Intercepter and sealed the door behind them as the storm hit,
setting his pack down he looked around.

realizing with the limited room they really couldnt fight if it came down to it

"make yourself at home, ill whip up something to eat and drink, if you want i have a sonic shower third door to your left

*he made a motion with his hand in the general direction then headed to the cockpit"

"Central are you online?"

As his computer systems turned on the Female voice replied

"Welcome back master Smoke, i am online and awaiting orders"

he nodded and sat in the pilots seat and let out a heavy sigh

"Shields to maximum, run intermittent sensor scans, anything humanoid gets within range of the ship wake me at once oh, and seal the ship as well"

there were a few chirps from the computer systems as his orders were registered and the hum of the shield generator as it came online, as all lights went green across the board he nodded and laid his head back having forgotten about his passenger in the safety of his ship he drifted off

 

[Josu_T]

Wil bowed as he left the prescence of the Jedi council. He immediately went to pack some things for his trip. Once ready he went to the star port where a ship was waiting for him. The trip went by without incidednt and he arrived on Tatooine in the morning. He was led to a building where he met the person he was supposed to protect. The man had some important info for the Jedi council, but he did not want to leave until he was sure that his wife would be ok without him for the time that he was gone. There were forces that would not want the man's info to get to the Jedi council and would do anything to stop him from telling them.

The first few days passed without incident, however, on the fourth and final day they were walking through the market when Wil noticed someone in a dark cloak following them. He led the man to the outskirts of town and had him hide inside a building. Wil exited the building and walked close to the stange figure. He could sense the figure's aura, it was dark, this was an evil being, strong in the force. He figured that it was a sith or a dark jedi. Looking back at the building he could see that his charge was still safe inside with on one else around. He moved up to the figure who was facing away from him. He placed a hand on their shoulder and then, sensing the figures next move, leapt backward. He drew his lightsaber and activated it. The figure thew off its cloak and drew their lightsaber as well. Wil decided that it was time to get out of there. He would need to get his charge to safety before dealing with his opponent. Wil focused and unleashed his Force Blinding ability. He followed it up with Malacia. His opponent went down, nautious and dizzy. Will rushed into the building and grabbed his charge. He rushed off to the space port and reached his ship. He sent his charge onto the ship and set the coordinates. He then hit the com and relayed a quick message to any Jedi who could recieve it. He asked for anyone to escort the man to the jedi council if possible. He also stated that there was a Sith on Tatooine and he could use support through force meld if anyone could get in range for the ability to function well.

After he sent his message he stepped off the ship. He saw the sith outside the space port walking toward the entrance. As Wil's ship took off he closed in on the Sith. His opponent pulled a blaster and fired. Wil used force deflection quickly and blocked the bolt. He drew his lightsaber and waited for the Sith to make another move. His opponent ran at him using force speed while drawing his lightsaber. Wil leapt up and forward, passing over the sith and their lightsabers met as they passed. Wil landed and turned to face the Sith. The then started, both of them nearly missing being stuck by the other's saber. As the battle raged on between the two of them they each tried using force abilities to throw off their opponent.

Wil used Force wave at close range to his opponent, knocking him backward. He then struck with Malacia. His opponent doubled over. Wil leapt forward, preparing to strike at his opponent. He suddenly felt a large surge in the force. Just as his saber was going to strike his opponent something wierd happened. Wil felt a wierd sensation and became dizzy. He fell to the ground and passed out.

OOC: ok, waiting for everyone else to reach the time travel moment now.

 

[dragoon001914]

Cradsk had been stuck on Tatooine for a while now. Long before it became renowned for it's smuggler dens, Tatooine only had very small settlements that were constantly under attack from the Sand People. The former Jedi did what he could to assist the people of the planet, at least until he was able to repair his ship. Thank the Force that the Jawas were nowhere near as hostile as the Sand People and that the metals they were using were scrap they had found from plundered settlements and not Tatooine ore.

The Trandoshan bounty hunter was growing weary with the wait as he felt a strange dark force nearby in the Dune Sea. He left the deserted Anchorhead and wandered into the desert for sometime, stumbling upon a cave. It was filled with dark energies, and he drew both lightsabers before walking inside. The beasts inside were difficult, and deadly, but thankfully he managed to kill them all and only lost a hand doing so. "Bah! Damnable creatures." He muttered, hooking his sabers to his belt before walking over to some strange construct.

It activated and opened up, revealing an odd map to him. Bewildered by it, Cradsk started feeling disorientated. He blacked out, and when he wakes up, would find himself in a far different time than he was at.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

OOC: wow.......just wow.......lol i was under the impression it was gunna be a gradual but increasing time change i didnt realize that you and Jotu were just gunna Jump into it, it really kinda defeats the storyline between Logan and Aleia,
