((Never had to fight in Urban terrain, have you Novara? I'm willing to bet that Missle of yours took out at least 5 civilians, not to mention your unarmored allies will probably be killed by flying debris. ))
Solms' balloon decoy evaporated upon contact with the missle as the device blew a massive gaping hole in the building's second floor.
Smoke and dust choked the alley and street as chunks of permacrete and rebar rained down. In the choking dust, Solms lost sight of his origional target. But that bothered him little now.
The Mandalorian had blown a chunk of Solms homeworld into vapor.
He had willingly and unhesitatingly used exessive force to attempt to finish him off, resulting in the death of civilians.
Mando had to go.
Solms stole along the back alley he had planned to ambush Darksun from, moving away from the street as he attached the sniper barrel to his SC rifle.
He flicked through his armor options on his interior HUD while he moved, and activated his suit's heat dampeners. He would be harder to spot with any sort of heat vision, but given the range from which the man had fired the projectile, he probably wouldn't very well be using thermals any who.
A thin, dull black barrel slowly poked out from behind a pair of trash cans, virtualy invisible to anyone not knowing what to look for. The barrel remained absolutely still, its muzzel directly for the center of Red's faceplate.
Beautiful. Solms thought to himself as he aimed from his hidden location, his enemy square in his sights
Clear skies bucket head.

Junta Nova (( Oops..... If you dont mind? )) Red saw his error. He tapped at the launcher controls. The missle pulled up and continued. " HURRY AND GET OUT OF THERE!!! " Red checked the launcher read out. They had about a 60 seconds befor he couldnt turn the missle around. " COME ON! " ((Too late man. Ive yet to see a missle launcher that can be guided like what you're doing, either here or in Real Life. Friendly Fire happens.))

(( Not true. I mean come on. Its starwars. There has to be. Plus my men dont care about collateral damage. Just ignore that last one then.))
Watching the blast Red grinned. Since Novara was not around he could cause as much damage as he wanted. Novara hated when innocent got hurt.
Pulling back and running to his speeder he felt as if he was being watched. He punched it and headed to see if the others were ok. Red cut through the streets.

Junta Nova (( Not true. I mean come on. Its starwars. There has to be. Plus my men dont care about colatral damage. )) ((What you described from your post was a heavy PLX missle, dumb fired at a building. Ive yet to see any evidence that you can control them mid flight. Next time you run away to use artillery, make sure your allies clear out first. And I'm willing to bet Cale's gonna have a few choice words about the collateral damage part.))

Rain covered Cale with her body as the building rubble settled. Several small pieces hit her but cause no real damage. When the smoke had cleared, Rain looked up to see a pile of rubble littering the street, including several large pieces that had landed near the sight of the battle.
Rain's eyes widdened.
Under one of those large chunks of permacrete debris was a reptilian hand.
"Rak..." She muttered. She turned to Cale and checked him over. The Outlaw had taken a full dose of the stun spores ad was out like a light.
She cursed as she flicked on the comlink.
"Cambot, are you there? Where are you?"
"Hello Rain. Bad news Im afraid."
"Why?"
"My Body has been crushed. one of those chunks of debris crunched it like a bug."
"Wait...where are you now then?"
"The Auric Runner."
"Right then." Rain said. Cambot had uploaded himself into the Auric Runner's computer some time ago. Now the ship's AI, he piloted the vessel in the fleet as an autonimous vessel, that is, when Cale didn't want to fly.
Rain saw Red pull up in his speeder.
She stood, a frightening degree of anger burning in her eyes.
"You jawa humping Di'kut. I aught to kill you now for what you did to my comrades."

Nanthas walked quickly talking as he walked "A Sept is like a settlement to the Echani. Think of it like a Monastery-City where the Echani live and train." He turned down a corner, passing by several other Echani, continuing, "As for us, we are a simple people. All of us live in Septs like this, raising families, training, and seeking enlightenment. We find peace through Martial Prowess, namely the Martial Arts. However that is not all my people find perfection in. Some find their calling more to creating things, whether it be floral arrangements or blaster rifles, each of us endeavour to do it to the depth of their Xi."

Mordranna perked up on hearing of creating things. "What is Xi?" she asked, her curiosity piqued. "As you can see, I am a Jedi knight, and Rekan here is my padawan. While there is a crisis, I shall endeavor to do my best on warcraft. However, I have other ambitions that go beyond the battlefield, and shall pursue those once this current crisis is over,"

"Xi is perfection. It is state of perfect calm and stillness. When in the depths of Xi an Echani is nearly as fast as a Jedi...or so they say...Each Echani attempts to have their work represent their Xi, because for each person Xi is unique, incredibly similar, but still unique." Nanthas continued, folding his hands behind his back as he did so. "Yes, your prowess in the Art of War is well known. We seek not to fight others, as I said, except for a select few, we all live here in our Septs, away from the War's that have torn apart the Galaxy for the last 1500 years, since the Great Call, we simply see the fist as muich of an instrument of enlightenment as it is of war."

"Indeed. The Jedi are peacekeepers, as well, and do not seek conflict." Mordranna said. She then looked to Rekan. "Doesn't sound so bad, does it?"

Nanthas stopped at a pair of doors, tapping a code into each one he said "These are your accomadations...I hope they are to your enjoyment..." He gestured into the rooms, then said "This is where I must leave you. The comm system in your rooms can reach me or Master Seraphim should you need anything. Farewell." The rooms were beautiful, with lush accomadations, each having a fully made bed covered with luxurious Echani silks, a meditation chamber, a full bathroom complete with a real (Nonsonic) Bath and Jacuzzi, a small bar, a dining table, and a balcony with a beautiful look out at the surrounding forest, river, and waterfall. The air was refreshing and natural, smelling of the surrounding forest. All in all the accomadations were top notch... (In Rekan's room the Jacuzzi was double size)

Mordranna looked around the room. "Hey, I like." she commented with a low, slow whistle. "You Echani are rather gracious hosts, if I do say so myself."

Red didnt get off his bike. He looked to Cale.
" If he is ok thats all i care about. I..... " Reds come went off.
" Red Report. Were is Cale and his band? You were to report an hour ago! "
" Mandalor! I .... I.... "
" Stop calling me MANDALOR!!! Where is Cale! " Red pulled his head back as the comm was set so loud every one could hear.
" Mand.... Commander. Cale is here. He is safe for the moment. A Hunter found..." Novara cut in.
" I said Cale AND his band. Do i hear some thing burning? That better not be you blowing SITH up again! " Red pulled out a comm link and handed it to the female.
Red stepped back and pulled out a blaster looking around and taking cover.
" Well i...... "
" Thats it... Hand a comm to some one still breathing. NOW! "
" This is Commander Novara. Who am i speaking to? "
