Star Wars: Dawn of a New Age

[Lord Esuritio]

Coruscant - Council Chambers


Fate of an Empire


Esuritio smiled antagonistically at his words. Tracing his finger in circles across his knee, he locked his gaze directly on Locolvictum, his eyes staring directly into his.

"You cannot be so idiotic as to believe I would arrive here, alone, without a 'card', as you say. I do not need such deluded assumptions to be made about me, especially while you sit there, thinking you are safe within your cradle of power."

Flexing his fingers, his gaze unflinching, he continued.

"I am here because I felt the death of Rahl. It rippled throughout the Force. To have my right taken from me, to bring about that event with my own hand, is frankly sickening. I have spent my time in the heart of our culture and now I have returned."

Still not blinking, or shifting his field of view from the man across the room, he rapped his fingers across his knee and finished what he was saying.

"Your fleet is aiming it's turbolasers at one of many ships present, it is not alone. Believe me when I tell you this will be a stalemate battle in terms of who has the most ships, or weapons. This comes down to what your intentions with the remnants of this Empire. I insist you don't bring this to conflict with sheer arrogance. So... I am here, ultimately because I felt the death of Rahl before it was his time to pass. I am also here because I have felt the repercussions of such a ridiculous, poorly executed takeover of power. You may have your followers, but you have set a much larger portion of meticulously planned events into disarray. For what? Believe me... The Je'daii will have felt and seen such a thing. It's weakened the position of this Empire."

Chalras chuckled lightly at the strangers words. " You are even more foolish than you appear. I am not hear because you are, you are not some great threat to us, it seems as though it was the will of the force that we have met here. And, yes my fleet is now aimed at your Star Destroyer, but it is not the Empires power it is my own. I pieced it together ship by ship, those who crew them only live by my command their lives are mine to do with as I please. They can all die and it will mean nothing, You have forgotten where you are. You are on Coruscant worm, the seat of the Empire. Its planetary defenses will blow all of your ships from the sky, and then that leaves you alone in enemy territory." Chalras licked his lips tasting the words still fresh on them and gave a sickly grin. "Your is like that of every ship that I control... join..or die."

Coruscant - 'Jedi Temple' - Council Chambers

Hearing Lockheart's words A'kire sneered, looking to the holo projection of the Cathar. This meeting was beginning to grow more intense by the second, but she dare not say a word. Not yet. She had plans, but for now she would rather sit back and wait. If Locolovictum really did want to do anything, he was wasting precious time by waving this supposed assault over Esuritio's head. Even though she had been removed from the events of recent, the Twi'lek still knew that a man such as Esuritio would never go anywhere unprepared.

Just when she thought the silence in the room couldn't grow any stronger, her old friend spoke once more, the deep tone of his voice shattering the stagnant silence like a fist through a mirror. It had been some time since she heard him speak in such a way, almost too long. She could feel herself wanting to smirk, but her expression remained neutral. Only her headtails, both natural and cybernetic twitched as the high lord spoke, criticizing each and every thing that Locolovictum had claimed, admitting to feeling Rahl's death long before it had happened.

So he felt it.....he knew this had happened...perhaps I had drifted too far from things to feel such an inkling.....have I lost my touch, or have I simply not been as close to Rahl as Karall had once been? No, I was never that close to him....the day he left is the day I broke my bond with him as my mentor....his death....oh, such a whirlwind of emotions come to mind when I think of this event.....hatred for how he cut me down and left me to die.....bitterness for how this...this man whom I've never met claimed his throne when it should have been mine...or Karall's.....

She would tense up a moment as her train of thought shifted once again, this time to the man who she had befriended and grew to respect all those years ago. His presence here meant an entirely different set of plans would soon unfold.

Karall...oh, dear Karall...such a powerful man....had he not shown up I may have been able to act on my original plan....but I dare not betray him...he's always been much too powerful....but to have acted before he showed up could have meant that I would be empress...did I falter? Why did I not act? What stopped me? Am I....growing weak? No. To admit weakness is to admit failure, and as Rahl said, to admit failure is to welcome death. I stared death in the face and walked away....I did not fail.....I did not fail....

A'kire sneered as she heard the Cathar speak. His arrogance spoke louder than anyone else's voice within the room while he hid behind the holo display. The sith Twi'lek would find it impossible to keep her mouth shut, but things needed to be said here and now. Slowly she would rise and turn to the cathar on the display.

"You. Cathar. You do not know the man that you speak to in such a tone. Nor do you know me nor my past, but that isn't important. Both of us knew Rahl, and I know of Esuritio more than you ever will. You claim to be able to command an entire fleet so that they will fall on a blade at your command? Esuritio's men would do that without even so much as him uttering a word. Hold your tongue lest it be cut out from your mouth."

Wilca's attacks came quickly but Kad was able to catch most of them on his armor, but he was left with some minor burns that might need some bacta after. Seeking an opening Kad sheathed his fists in Force Lightning and lashed out with a solid punch looking to shock his younger opponent.

Kads punch hit Wilca right in the gut and lifted him off the ground. He landed hard on his back, and smoke rose from his stomach his robes had a hole burned into them exposing small patches of charred flesh. It took more effort than it should have to the Je' daii to flip himself back onto his feet, but once he was up right again his face was stern, Kad was not holding back and Wilca respected that. He took a few steps back and pulled off his gun belt tossing it to the corner of the room, and ripped off the tattered remains of his robes. Locking eyes with Kad he gave a shallow nod and charged in for hand to hand combat. Each fist foot knee and elbow that Wilca threw he made stronger with force.

Wilca in his flurry of attacks had left himself open and instantly regretted it. He never saw the punch that was thrown but when it connected with his jaw it sent his head back. Thinking quickly he thew his body back into a flip springed back up with his hands and brought his feet up hard hoping to catch Kad in the face

Kad dodged the kick with a careful side step. Kad reached out to grab onto Wilca's leg with intent to slam him into the ground.

"You're not bad ner'vod, but i'm better" Kad said with a smirk.

It felt like the world was in slow motion as Wilca watched Kad effortlessly dodged his attack, and reached out an arm to grab his leg. By sheer like Wilca was able to avoid Kads grasp. Landing on his feet the Kiffar staggered for a moment tired bloodied and burned, but refusing to give up.

"Verd ori'shya beskar'gam, this fight is not over yet."

Charging staight at Kad Wilca dove straight for his legs ready to tackle him and take the fight to the ground.
