"One good turn desrves another. I wish you two well, I'm going to the others. Hopefully we will meet again under more agreeable circumstances." Iust tells her. He stops in to tell Revak that he is going and then leaves the ship heading back to Iria and Link in the other hangar.

Revak watched the man leave with a sigh, glancing at Jenel he smiled slightly, "I need a drink."
She smiled slightly, "I hear you."
With that Revak turned back and walked down the main corridor carrying a pair of wooden boards under his arm along with a third, smaller piece of wood. Behind him Jenel dug out a roll of medical tape. With another half-smile she followed him, "A pity you guys can't use bacta, she'd be up and about in just a day or two if you could."
"Yes, fortunately our own metabolism and body heals quite quickly on its own, Calra will be able to walk again without a splint in a week, but her leg will be weak for quite a while afterward." Revak shrugged as he stepped into Calra's room and pulled up a stool next too her bed and sat down, "This is what the second time you've broken your leg?"
"Yeah, though last time it was a training accident," Calra sighed, "Alright lets get this done with."
Revak handed her the small piece of wood, a bite bit and she clamped down on it as he bent over her leg. Through the force he could sense the break, and where the bone needed to go. With a strong grip and stout pressure he set to work.
Calra growled and hissed as he leg began to slid back into place, her eyes rolled up into her sockets. Then with a rather sickening snap the bite bit broke in her jaw.
Revak sighed as he finished setting the leg and began wrapping it in medical tape and immobilized it between the two wooden boards. Finished he stood and watched Calra try to relax, "I'll be back. Come on Jenel, lets get something to drink."
As the walked out, Calra murmured, "I changed my mind, give me the strongest stuff they've got."

The Bodies were thrown onto the flames, and Link heaved a sigh.
"The task is complete." He glanced to the jedi woman and nodded.
"Depart now, this one must. Many things need attending to. Hopefully this one can depart from this spaceport without another explosion tearing it apart."
He nodded to her and departed, moving along the alleys around the spaceport enroute to take care of very important buisness.

The Onderon queen looked shock at the chiss. How could she trust him? She had certainly known the Sith and Empire were allies once again, but to lose Fel? She immediately switched the screen so that they could see each other.
"How did he die?"
The commander decided to tell her the truth. "His palace on Bastion was raided during a Council of the Moffs. To our knowledge, he is dead along with most of the Imperial Knights, and at least one of the Moffs. With this done, Darth Krayt has usurped the leadership."
She shook her head. "Why would we possibly ally with you then? If Krayt controls the Empire, he controls more than half the galaxy. It's suicide."
"And why did the Rebellion fight against Palpatine?" Elladan countered. "To end corruption and tyranny. It worked then, it can work now."
"I still don't trust you," she acused. "We need proof before we can commit to any kind of negotiations. The nearest Imperial fleet is seventeen parsecs away, and they have a Nebula with them. We have a military, but not enough to go against even just a lone Nebula. It's not worth it unless you have something to add..... as collateral."
Elladan frowned, then switched one of the datapads onscreen, reviewing the schematics to his latest ship, the Victory-class Mark IV Star Destroyer. As of yesterday, construction had been finished on the factories on Wayland and Taris. By now, he had three Acclamantors in service and manned, and at least a pair of Victories underway.
"What you see is the latest in Imperial design, the VSD MK IV. Newer and far more advanced then its latest predecesor. Completely renovated, and capable of outmatching an ISD MK II. The ship I'm on is an Acclamantor MK III, the updated version of the Republic-age warship, and serving the same purpose. I'm sure your advisors will agree."
The queen turned to Olin beside her. He reviewed the schematics closely, before nodding. "In theory, any, it's a very good ship. Enough of these, and the Empire's numbers would no longer be so much of an advantage. However..." He turned to Elladan. "If you're Loyalist as you say, you can't possibly have the resources needed to justify all of this. You can't have more than a system or two under such short notice."
"No we don't," the commander countered. "One of the reasons we came here in the first place. Onderon and Dxun are virtually... untapped worlds. For even our limited work efforts, we need the resources. Taris provides factories and soldiers. Wayland provides Technology. We need onderon to provide the resources. Will you help us?"

Unfortunately for a certain group of pirate raiders, they picked the worst possible time to attack a freighter not too far from Dantooine's vicinity in space. A few heavy laser blasts nailed a pair of fighters and destroyed them in seconds. Looking for the source, the rest of the pirates watched as a battle cruiser came into view. Inside the vessel, a delicate figure gazed at the viewscreen on the bridge from the captain's chair and gave a nod to Mandalorian who looked ready for a war, who in turn gave the pirates their one chance at survival. " This is the battle cruiser Heaven's Fury. Leave this space immediately or you will all be destroyed. This is your only warning. " Naturally, there are bound to be a few stubborn fools in the heat of battle. This was no exception. Half the remaining pirate ships turned around and fled. The rest decided to attack the cruiser. The Heaven's Fury gave a bombardment of laser battery fire from its port side. None of the attacking pirate ships survived, save those that fled when they were offered the chance. " Damage report. " came the soft, yet commanding voice of Angel. " Shields took a little scrape, but the damage is negligible. We'll back to 100% in no time. " " Hail the freighter. Make sure they're okay. " " The freighter reports all's well. " " Good. I'll be in my quarters. Might as well get my room on this thing broken in considering I'll most likely be using it a lot. " Angel went off for her room, the Mandalorian taking over the bridge in her place. The Heaven's Fury went back to maintain an orbit over Dantooine, having nowhere else to go at the moment.

(( Wow, lots o' posting! ))
"Then I wish you well," Iria said to the man with the odd dialect. As the man left, she then took to finding Iust.

Iust arrived back at the hangar to see the strange man leave. Coming over to Iria he asks "Where is he off to? "

"He said something about business to tend to," Iria replied as the other man walked away. "He speaks in a rather odd manner. Still, I can say this much: he doesn't seem to be working for Graka."

"You seem to be right there, but I have an odd feeling about him. But right now our main concern is Graka. First we need to find a secure shelter so we don't have to keep fighting Graka's goons, we won't be able to hold out forever. Once we have a chance to rest we should decide what to do next." Iust tells Iria as he crosses to pick up his suitcase full of credits.

Iria couldn't help but agree. "Something about him, indeed." she said. "With that in mind, does Graka have any enemies? Failing that, would there be any whom would aid us at this time?"

"There is one man whom I know we can trust at this point. He's old and crippled so can't do much to help but provide us a place of shelter. He lives in a small residence outside of the city, if we can get there we should be able to stay low for a while. He goes by the name Sunum Zalera, he is my uncle and the only family I have left," Iust tells Iria. "If you want I can take you to him."

"I'll, like, come with," Freya said.
"Are you sure?" Rusty queried.
"Yes, totally," Freya said in response. "We'll ask for volunteers to totally go with us to Naboo, and have the others wait here." Looking to Gorwooken, she also added, "Aurora tells me that her old folks will totally mind the store here while we're on business,"
"And, it will take Mistress Freya's mind off of things," Rusty discreetly whispered to the wookie.

Gorwooken said, after nodding discreetly to Rusty. Leading the way to the Corvette, he noted that the hatchway was already open... convenient. He asked Freya.

Freya did as she was bid, and entered the Corvette. "On behalf of the fledging Alliance, I, Freya Starsinger welcome you, volunteers from Kashyyyk,"
With that, there was many cheers in shirywook. (( sp? ))
"So, like, our next mission is a meeting on Naboo." Freya said. "At this time, I would like to ask a couple of volunteers to accompany us,"
With that, there were many raised paws, and cheers in the wookie's native tongue. One of the lead wookies said, < We are all honored to be here, Lady Starsinger. > proclaimed the largest of the wookies.
Another spoke. < We have just been informed of your tragedy, > he said. < And, we share your grief. >
(( sound about right? ))
