Calliga sat bolt upright; sensing a concentrated wave of the force ripple towards the planet even while laying about the rumpled sheets. "-Siren; that's no meteor... It reeks of the light side; or....something....it's strange...." Calliga paused, focusing in on it-he'd been sure he'd felt light-side energies, but now he wasn't sure-the signature was fading; then shifting to something like dark-side power...then fading again...what was that? Calliga looked about, wary as the lights flickered. "Siren....you may want to raise your defenses. I was wrong-the thing isn't a jedi: It's something I've never seen before; it's amorphous and inconsistent in force signature; so it's either strange phenomenon, a dangerous creature, or something else entirely-possibly even a sith assasin sent by one of those pompous lords to stop a empire from rising. I'm going to investigate-if some artifact or ore we can use, then all the better. If not....I'll kill it. Utterly." Calliga rose and dressed himself, and a few commands in siren's name-she had personally said he commanded her now, so that mean he could act through her as he liked; He alerted the base security commanders of a possible force-sensitive being on the "shooting star". Another request had his armor and lightsaber brought to him; and he swiftly donned his full fighting regailia , changing from a deciever and master of pleasures to a dark warrior, energized with the dark side. True, he was a bit worn out from enjoying his new playthings, but he'd learned a while ago how to boost his stamia with the Dark side, and all the desires generated fed his controlled anger-what was this, that it would interrupt him, threaten his slave? A hand Clenched on his lightsaber, Calliga left; pausing in the doorway. "I will be back. Maybe with a body, maybe with a relic..or possibly a prisoner. I suggest you stay here and let me do the softening up; you get ready in case you have to break someone..." And then he was gone.

The hulk of a bothan freighter sat smashed into a hill of dirt, large sections of hull plating ripped off or melted from extreme stess. her engines were a charred mess of blackened scrap, and her cockpit Transparisteel was rent and crumpled. Fire suppressant foam stained her surface, the automated nozzles still dripping. The hatch where the escape pod was once birthed was noticibly empty, the escape pod having crashed about 100 klicks to the south. It didnt survive smacking into a mountain.
Save for the continual booming of thunder, and the flash of the occasional lightning bolt, all was calm on the savanna around the freighter. Then, the topside hatch popped open.
Cautiously Pash poked his head up over the rim of the hatch, pistol in hand as he surveyed his surroundings. He had a few scrapes on his forehead and cheek and his left earlobe was bruised, but he had survived. However, given the terrain outside, his chances didnt look too good. He pulled himself out of the hatch, dressed in a loose grey jumpsuit and a hooded, camoflaged poncho with his utility belt and bandoleer. He carried a backpack with some survival equipment and a blaster carbine was slung over his left shoulder.
"This isnt good." He muttered as his keen eyes began scanning the savanna. The terrain was remniscent of something he had read about in the Jedi Archives, a world the Republic visited only once and never returned. He hoped he was wrong.
He activated his comlink. "Hurry up, AreDee. We have to get moving."
There was a pause on the other line. "Hold on, I'm comming."
"What are you doing anyway?" Pash asked as he swaped his pistol for his carbine.
"I just discovered an interesting feature of these replacement parts you fixed me with."
Pash thought briefly about what the heck said feature could be, then shook his head with an annoyed sigh.
"Hurry up already."
After a few more moments, a bald, pale skinned humanoid female wearing a dark visor and a vac-suit emerged from the ship. Around her hip was a survival belt, equiped with a sporting blaster pistol. "Impressed I see." She stated, her voice that of the gynoid but more reflective of an organic being.
"You grew skin?" Pash asked, not terribly surprised.
"A durable synthetic polymer that feels like humanoid flesh to the touch. I even managed the ability to mimic the expressions necessary to convince people that I actually need to use my mouth to shape words."
"You modified yourself to mimic the visual action of speaking. Dare I ask why?"
Though her face was utterly without expression he got the feeling she was rather pleased with herself. "As an assassin droid, my ability to get close to my target is a vital necessity. With this false skin I am now able to blend in with a population and strike my target before he realizes that I am something altogether superior to an organic lifeform. It is a wonder why my previous owners never bothered to develop such a useful mechanism."
"Because its a function that only exists on Zeltron." Pash explained. "They install thatability in their pleasure droids so that they seem more real." There was an awkward silence between the two.
"You fixed me with sex droid parts?" the Gynoid asked with a mounting anger.
"Its not easy finding components for a feminine robotic frame. Most robots are either masculine or not human looking at all. I used what I could."
"I feel violated and degraded."
"Dont look at me. The parts I bought were new."
She just glared at him, the dark visor covering her eyes, perhaps a part of her construction she could not disguise with her newfound ability. "One of these days, I'll fix that little reprograming job you did and kill you."
Pash rolled his eyes and turned towards the direction he believed civilization lay. "That will probably be an interesting day. But regardless, we have to find a city and aquire a ride off this world."
The two began to hike, Pash armed with his carbine, Aredee with her sport pistol, walking at a brisk pace through the tall grass towards Hurron.
As they did so, Pash wrapped the Force around him, concealing him from other force users and bending light around the two of them to conceal them from view. Aredee didnt seem to notice, but Pash knew full well they were well hidden as they walked. He hoped this was not the world he thought it was, but in his buisness, it didnt pay to take chances.

" As you wish, Master. " Siren said to Calliga as he left, laying back down in bed. After a moment, she turned to face her Twi'lek attendent. " You should probably get back to work now, in case any major issues arise. Whatever that was may have caused damage to something. " " Yes, my Queen. " the Twi'lek said, getting up outta bed and putting on the robe she came in with, then leaving the room.
Siren layed there for a few more moments to think, then got up and dressed herself in some very provocative lingerie. If it came to her having to break someone, she was now armed for it. It was just a matter of waiting to see what would happen now.

Prowling about the dark shadows in the city's outskirts, Calliga scanned the crash sight with high-tech monoculars; growling in irritation: the outline of the wreck was missing anything...living. Or bodies. That meant he was dealing with artifact; droid-ship....Or.... Calliga's eyes narrowed-for a brief second, the force had flared up; a ripple passing outwards like someone powerful using the force-to do what? A sudden flash, and then it vanished....what move; what technique... Growling, Calliga stepped into the shadows; Summoning the force to blend in to the darkness; a sheilded postion, as long as he didn't move... ....!! Sheilded-!! That was it.. If he was dealing with a force-sensitive; it could have cloaked.... Calliga pulled out a comlink; whispering at near-silent into the high-sensitive microphone. "-hold all forces; don't advance on the ship. Just...get a monitor on it; call me if you pick up life. Otherwise...leave this matter to me...." Changing channels, The sith called siren's chamber. "Watch it, Girl. Looks like we have... force-using "ghosts". Stay warmed up; if them come for you, you may need to stall them for me... Over and out." Calliga stepped into the shaded sections of the main city grate; waiting. If something came by, cloaked, and at close range...he should sense it. And with his back to the wall, he was relatively safe from a assasin or such; who would need to cloak... Standing their like some wanderer or, calliga casually checked his armor, so it covered his vitals...

It was dark by the time the two drew closer to the city, and as the main gate came into sight, Pash suddenly halted the Gynoid.
"What is it, organic?" She asked.
"We're not gonna want to take the main gate." he said, his eyes narrowed as though focused on something unseen."I got a better idea. Follow me."
Pash diverged off the road and casually made his way to the walls of the fortified town. Seeing his aim, the Gynoid followed, and together they snuck unseen to the wall. Utilizing their superior agility and strength, the two began cimbing the wall's exterior.
Pash poked his head up above the edge first, noticing the regular movements of the guards and watching paiently until they werent paying attention. "Go on ahead. I'll catch up. Make sure to keep a low profile." He quietly told Ardee.
The gynoid nodded and vaulted nimbly over the battlements, landing on the ramparts. She then darted across the rampart and lept off, disapearing over the edge.
Pash waited his turn, watching with a hunter's calm the movement of the guards as they patroled. When an opportunity presented itslef, noislessly he pulled himself up over the crellenation and darted over the wall.
With a leap, he pushed away from the wall and grabbed the outer edge of a building's roof. He pulledhimself on top of it, then glanced in the direction of the gate with a confident smirk.
"Ameture." he muttered quietly as he climbed down a fire escape ladder on the east side of the building. Once in the alley, he walked deeper into it, his hood pulled up over his head as he avoided the street.
Finding a dumbster, he sat down on the far side of it and used it as cover as he slipped into a light sleep to wait for a better chance tomorrow to move about unseen.

Koren came screaming out of hyperspace. Immediately, he had his shields and weapons to full power. Immediately, his sensors separated Tett ships from Sullust ships. But he could identify no Mandalorian ships.
So the b***h lied to me. Just as well...
A loud beep began eminating from this control panel. He was still not used to laying horizontally, but it was getting easier. He checked his systems and the beeping was apparent. He had overheated the hyperdrive. So he wouldn't be able to leave anytime soon.
Unoccupied Trireme battle cruiser discovered under repairs in dry dock. Targeting defending fighters.
Koren's computer had a strong, manly voice with an odd accent he couldn't place. It was nice compared to the cliche woman-voiced computers. It also was better because it seemed to have some knowledge of tactical situtations. Koren was liking this better and better.

.............. Nothing. It was faaar too quiet. Calliga began to wonder if perhaps he'd made a mistake-or was his own shadow-shroud method not strong enough to hide himself, or- Then he puased looking closely at the ground. Footsteps where showing up; but out of synch- flickering into existance slowly as if they had merely been hidden, and not made. calliga moved forwards, kneeing by the phantom tracks. There was a very faint, light set, who ever had made them was skilled in the methods of stealth; looked as if they took care to tread softly by habit, not concious thought. A practiced stealth-user. The other set was..stiff, mechanical. And heavy; each imprint in the loose gravel and dust was heavy...A droid, no doubt. Calliga looked up, noticing the footsteps etch themselves into the ground in the direction of the wall. So, too humaniods, a droid and a Stealth user. Calliga was now highly suspitious of a sith or jedi agent, but he reserved judgement; a hasty decision could be a just what this mystery being wanted. One thing was sure-they were dangerous. they would not be hiding if they had nothing to hide.... But they had made it inside already, by the looks of it. He'd need a lure. Calliga smirked, then returned to his bike, making minimal effort to hide his dark-side force signature; merely sending brief instructions to the security chief before departing; heading back to Siren's-his-capital building. If the mystery being didn't come after him now, he'd simply have to allow them time to learn that sith ruled here-no doubt he would come to them; jedi would seek to liberate, and a sith would seek to steal....or get in bar fight. either way...

As the battle raged over the sky of Sullust, Stryder directed his forces from his place on the bridge of the Ashla. He watched with close attention the battle on the ground, the key to winning this battle. His troops had made a successful landing inside the Capital tunnels of Sullust and were advancing rapitdly to take them over. He still hadnt recieved any reply to his surrender demand. That was proving to complicate matters. There was an unexpected shout of alarm from the sensor officer, and Stryder glanced back to listen in. "Admiral Vaklar! We've detected a Mandalorian Ship exiting hyperspace!" The Admiral looked suprised and turned to Stryder who nodded to him, Trusting his Naval Commander with this new occurance. "Bloody Mandalorians." Vaklar muttered. "Alright open a hailing frequency with that ship and demand to know why its here." "Aye, sir."

Pash was awakened by a boot in his ribs, and his eyes snapped open to take in the offender and the dreary light of this world's day. "Oh. Its you." He said with a yawn. "What happened to the space suit?"
The Gynoid, now dressed in the robes of the local population, towered over the reclining jedi. "The Space suit would have attracted unwanted attention. You are not the only one who realizes the practicality of disguises, Organic. Now, let us be off. Already you've wasted time sleeping."
Pash reached into his belt pouch and drew a caloriemate bar from it, unwrapping the small, nutritionally balance meal. "After surviving a crash and hiking all day while projecting a stealth cloak over us, you'd be tired to. I need to conserve my strength. We're deep in enemy territory here."
"Explain."
Pash snapped off a piece of the hard wafer and chewed briefly, then swallowed. "I meditated upon this world, seeking answers to where we were. My meditations have determined that this is Thule, a world deep in Sith Space that served as a Fortress world for every Sith Empire thats sprung up. The Republic invaded it once during the great Hyperspace Wars and left it alone ever since, knoweldge of the world fadding from common knowledge, save for the archives of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant."
The Noid didnt sound convinced. "Your Meditations told you all that, did they?"
Pash finished off his meal and tossed the wrapper in the Dumbster next to him, which he immediately gestured to. On the side it stated in two languages 'Thule Sanitation Works'.
"I admit I did have a bit of help." He said. The Jedi rose to his feet and stretched, getting the kinks out of his system. "Now we just need to find a ship and get out of here. Preferably soon. Theres a powerful Sith on planet that I'd rather not cross. Especially when they have the Homefield advantage."
The Gynoid nodded and the two casually walked into the street, seeking to blend in with the crowds going about their workday.

Cene swiftly made her way through the Governor's mansion, kicking down doors with her carbine at her shoulder as she proceeeded to sweep the house clean. Thus far she encountered little resistance. Then, some security personel rounded the corner of a hall and saw her. They froze in shock and fright as the glare from a Mandalorian Visor settled upon them Cene didnt waste time. She fired a pair of energy bolts into both men, dropping them and continuing her sweep. She was going to have to move faster, before the govenor was moved. ((Its a little short but I'm trying to work around a little writer's block I'm having.))

Annoyed, Calliga made it back with no interferrance. So much for that theory. Parking the speeder bike in the capital spire's hangar bay, He got up and stormed towards the exit. A sultry mechanic girl, however, got in his way; hanging on the irate sith and begging for help with " connecting a drive shaft to a exhuast manifold". After a bit of questioning, she revealed she had heard the sounds from siren's chamber earlier, and had spent the last hours dreaming of what was going on, and wanting to see it. Calliga cooled down a bit, persuaded by her "sincere longings"-such recreation could be helpful...besides, she seemed...creative. Joining her in a parts storage room, Calliga utilized a tool bench to relieve the tool-girl of her coveralls before using her to burn off his frustrations at the mystery invader. The room was soon ringing with (mostly her) cries and screams from the activities, and a hour or so later, Calliga left her panting on the toolbench, before gather his things and proceeding on to siren's chambers. "I'm back. Siren, I seems we have a clever force user on our hands; They can use a cloaking skill of some advanced form, and didn't chase after me when I let my own signature ripple out in the force freely; They have control, and are not the normal jedi bleeding-heart or sith ego-assasinator....and, on a unrelated note...you should try that girl you have on mechanics duty some times-she knows her parts.heh..." Calliga sat down on the corner of the bed, looking at siren. "we need bait. What do you want to do...? you're the experianced one in seducing and munipulating..."

Fully rehabilitated from the wounds, the shrapnel had been painfully removed. The stitches came with no painkillers. Sonya had been under surveilence, but each day she stayed in the medlab, the more angry she had grown. All that work she had put in boiled in her chest, and he had done that. Of all things, that.
----
Several days earlier...
"I imagine that I got wounded too much and went too slow for someone of your status, huh? At least tell me you liked the finale."
Except Karah was less than motivated. He shrugged her off, as a pair of guards helped her get to the medlab. Sonya's eye twitched in rage, as she noted the two men helping her. Already her mind began to think, imagining various forms of pain she wanted to inflict, if she could just summon the energy. If only...
----
... the air smelled sterile. Dead. So clean, so fake. Sonya had a feeling she remembered this smell. It didn't make sense at first, but it came back eventually. It was the hospital. A place she didn't want to be at. The doctor continued to look her over, checking her vitals.
"Getting a good look?" She sneered, as the doctor gave a disapproving glance at her face. "What's wrong, can't crack a smile?"
"What do you want me to say, Lady Kai'zer? I'm a doctor. Your body is just another patient on the bed, one which is under constant surveilence by the guards of Master Tos. It is my duty to stitch you up perfectly, so that you can get back to the field," he replied, taking several notes.
"Stiches? will it scar?" Sonya asked, a cocktail of fear and anger for any visible damage that could damage her otherwise pristine body. "You're the doctor, if you don't have the skills to..."
"... to what? keep your body perfect? You would be perfect if I had the right equiptment. But this is the military, and the God of War wants you to suffer. I'm told to make sure you learn your place."
A vein popped in Sonya's forehead. The monitors on her pulse skyrocketed, as her anger rose. The machines began to rattle on the floor, as Sonya's fists clenched and her nails dug into her hands, drawing blood. In an instant, she lept from her bed. Sonya lifted the doctor from the floor, her hand around his neck, the other ready for a swift jab.
"Fury... yes... you could kill me..." the doctor choked out.
"Damn straight I'll kill you!" She hissed, using the force to shove the bed against the door, slowing the guards down some.
"But... why... kill me... when Karah... is responsible?" The doctor questioned.
Sonya was somewhat surprized. the loyal doctor didn't use a title, like most maggots. He was thinking for himself. She was confused, unsure of what she should do. The urge to kill him nearly clouded her vision, but he spoke in words which made sense to her. Slowly she let the doctor down to let him breathe, as the guards broke through the door.
"Is everything alright?" One asked. It was the same one who was on the right of her when she was dragged in.
"Yes," the doctor said, as the guards left the room again. "If I keep you unflawed, I may be risking my life and the warlord might kill me. You want that perfect body, kill your master. Every sith does eventually. Or at least incapacitate him."
---
"So you dumped him into the trash compactor without his lightsaber?" Ro'nin asked, giving a laugh. Sonya stared at him, cracking a smile in her lotus stance.
"Got to take out the trash somehow. What better way than with the rest of the trash?" she said, finishing her story on a high note. "The things I do for power, huh? Still, the incompetence he showed was unacceptable. Tell me, why do the jedi get all the smart ones and we're stuck with all the retards?"
"You fought well though. For someone who's not even a knight, you managed to take down a jedi with his skills. I would have done it better and quicker, but you don't have the same experience as me." Ro'nin said, giving a laugh, patting his saber on his belt.
"Say," Sonya began. She dug into her inner strength, as she continued to make small talk. Ro'nin, Jorel, Kanan, Uran, Habakkuk, and Iodan had all been to see her today. She had placed her plan into motion, as the doctor had advised. It amazed her just how much men were willing to talk to her with the right motivation. "Silly boy, you know how we like to horde as sith."
---
The three days in the hospital had helped advance Sonya's plans far greater than she had hoped. She had been under surveilence, but with her influence, and the doctor's wisdom, she had convinced several key people to let her enter the communications center without a supervisor. In fact, their orders were to now to protect Sonya, rather than kill her. There was someone with the power to complete her vengeance.
"Lord Cyneticus, I have something to report from the Salient," she announced, bowing to the projector. The wheels were set in motion....
(skipping and jumping, i know, but I can't just kill the guy in one post.)

" You tease me, Master. " Siren said, responding to Calliga's comment about the mechanic. Her tone then became slightly more serious. " Hmm... Sounds like a Shadow to me. That makes it a bit easy. I don't know much about them, other than they are like assassins, and as such they're closer to the Dark Side than other typical Jedi, but they're specially trained for it. "
She paced around for a moment, in thought. " I got it. Whoever it was must've been that shooting star. I'm guessing they crashed some distance away, and are probably stranded here. That means they'll need a ride off the planet. Have extra security around all hangars and anything with any ships parked around. Those places are where they'll be wanting to go. Closing that off will prevent their escape. While you see to that, I'll go out in disguise and just happen to let them discover me. They'll most likely attempt to take me hostage to help secure an escape plan. When they do, I'll use my talents, and after they let down their guard once they think victory is within reach, they'll find the sudden urge to stay with me, then we have them. "
Siren began to search through her various clothing for something that would blend in with the normal populace. Since everything of hers amounted to barely more than lingerie, that created a problem. She went over to the terminal and after a moment, the other end came online. After a few moments of exchaning words, a set of ordinary clothes arrived at the door. She then changed, with Calliga able to enjoy the view as she did. " If my plan happens to fail, I'll probably need to be punished. " she said seductively.

Koren was about 60 seconds to combat range of the fighters guarding the drydock. Then his HUD began beeped fervently.
Incoming message from the Ashla. Possibly the lead ship in this invasion. Should I patch it through.
Yes,, thank you.
Finally, it was time for the fun to begin. Koren tapped his ear, to turn on his headset so he could talk while still piloting his fighter. Speaking of which, his ship had no name. No transponder code either.
Hello, Ashla. This Is Captain Koren Renvach of the Sabertooth. I'm engaging in this battle. May I ask to whom I'm speaking?

Aurora switched off the compensators as instructed as Ritt’s ship pulled out in front of hers. His starfighter slowly started to yaw and she pushes down on her our rudder controls, matching his turn as his instructions filtered thought her helmets speakers and into her ears. She realized that she had slipped into a tunnel vision narrowed onto the rear of Ritt’s red ship, she simple extended her focus. Feeling how the suit fit to her body as she flexed and moved around in the limited space allotted. The cockpit to her Starfighter was a tight fit for most, but with her small form she had more room to move around than most. She was still examining her suit when Ritt’s fighter pitched over and started to ark away, reflexively she thru her control yoke over. Jockeying with the rudder and thrusters her fighter responded smartly, matching his maneuvers. Once she had matched speeds with him she pulled back gentle on the yoke. Increasing her fighters turn and angling the nose of her bird at an invisible line that marked Ritt’s course along his arcing turn.
