Pirates, prose, and prints...oh my. (Serenity, Jack, Coci and Co)

[Vaudin Miir]

Vaudin sat at his new Veshok wood desk with his feet up on the hardwood surface tossing a new Holographic transmitter up in the air with one hand and sipping a glass of fine Corellian wine with the other. He had to be crazy to accept this position, but the people of Iktotch had called and he had answered. He didn't like politics and didn't see what the jockeying that often took place had to do with running a government, but he was just an old Pirate and freedom fighter, so what did he know.

One thing he knew was he had gotten an idea from some Internal Affairs reports he had been given and soon he would be joined by a few others to discuss it securely, and since the person who had bugged his office was already invited he didn't bother to remove the listening device. His first co conspirator was a bit of a kindred spirit and fellow senator, @[member="Jack Sparrow"], his ever charming second guest was hopefully to be the image of @[member="Serenity"], the one hologram that could get his engines fired up. Well maybe not the only one but what difference did details make in that regard. His final guest was an Operative he knew by name but had yet to meet, one miss @[member="Coci Sinopi"], a Corellian operative with an impressive dossier.

Vaudin sat the holo-transceiver on his desk and check the secured datacards he had made on his datapad. Details for a possible mission were all on the thin cards and would be destroyed after the meeting today. He continued to sip his wine because regardless of Coruscant time it was evening somewhere. he was dressed in his old black pilots boots and black trousers. His white shirt unbuttoned at the collar and then some. If someone were to see him with out knowing he could possibly be arrested for trespassing but his ID and shiny security clearance said Senator and IA. So he waited and hopefully his future holographic femme fatal would listen to his idea, before she had him beaten...

She had made it this far. Coci's eyebrows frowned more with each step she took toward the office of Senator Miir. Her eyes flicking around up around the ceiling noting every security camera along the corridor. She moves silently, which is normal for her, however the lush carpet of the Senate building aided that. There is no smile on the face of this black clad operative, her soft black leather body suit form fitting and provided freedom of movement, on her hip a brown leather belt containing pouches for various items including her pistol. Slung over her shoulder is her holster for her blaster, she had no need for the White Mouse at this point, however she had it safely secured and nearby. She wore no boots, but custom made black shoes, soft of the sole which gave her flexibility of movement and silence when walking. Over all of this get up, her cloak grey in colour, cowl up and around her face.

As she approached the double doors to the Senator's office her hand waved over the control panel and the doors opened. Immediately she approached to the front of the desk, without a word, Coci flung back the folds of her cloak and revealed her weapons. By now she is in front of his desk and in an instant, using the force, her pistol was in her hand. She raised her arm and aimed at the Senator's face over his desk.

"I got all the way inside your office and not one person stopped to question me", she said as she returned her pistol to her hip, as quickly as she had grabbed it. "You need to address this Senator Miir, for if I was an enemy you would be dead".

 

[Vaudin Miir]

Vaudin turned to look as the Woman entered flung aside her cloak and pulled her pistol with "The Knack" as Vaudin's old Master, Jorus, would have called it. She was good, and too right. His security had not done a single thing to stop the woman, he would have to stop letting pretty women come to his office during regular hours. He stood slowly and stuck his hand out as if to shake hers and pulled with the force at her Blaster and pointed it back at her for a second before he sat it on the desk and slid it back.

"Maybe you can have a word with my Security after our talk." Vaudin said still holding his wine. "Can I get you something to drink while we await the remainder of our little party?"

Coci just pffted internally at his action of removing her blaster, he would have been dead before that could have happened. "Oh I will", she said in reply. Coci is very blunt by nature and cold when on duty, there is another side to her that only very few know and it takes a long time, to get to know the real girl behind the 'mask', that is of course if she lets them. However, she did not take a seat but instead walked around behind his desk to the large window and stood to the side of it, looking out across the many tall building of Coruscant, noting all the good vantage points for one to take up position to assassinate a senator.

"Water thankyou", she does not drink booze on duty, it dulls the mind. She raised her hand and knocked on the glass with her knuckle .. "Bolt proof I take it?".

 

[Vaudin Miir]

Vaudin walked to the bar and poured a glass of cold water and walked back to hand it to the Operative.

"Lets keep the blaster trick between us shall we?" Vaudin said with a smile. She could have killed him without a doubt but he wanted to keep people guessing as to just what kind of cards he was holding.

She asked about the glass. Of course it was bolt proof and plasma torch resistant, but Vaudin liked the no nonsense women. They were more fun than the girls that laughed at him at every joke. He swirled his wine and took a sip holding it to the light and smacking his lips.

"Closer to 30 proof but they don't rate Corellian wine in proofs." He turned to hide a grin and walked to his bar and top his glass. He was actually supposed to be off world and the meeting was off the records, but only @[member="Serenity"] would know that.

"As you wish", she said in reply to concealing his force tricks, "As long as you do mine", she added. Oh she had more up her sleeve as well, even though she only tolerated her force sensitivity. It was a tool to her and nothing more, none of this Jedi stuff for her, at least for the moment. It would take a very strong Jedi to convince her otherwise.

Coci took the cold glass of water and raised it slightly in cheers to the Senator. She turned back to the window with a slight smirk on her face at this comment about the proof of the wine. She raised the glass to her lips and sipped, allowing the coldness of the water to filter down her throat. She let out a long sign and turned around to locate the long sofa, moving over to it, she sat down and looked at her chronometer on her wrist. They are late, she thought .. as time is something of an essence to her, she hated it when others did not comply.

Her eyes looked over the man, this Senator and wondered what his history was, his true history that is, not the one for show in the files.

 

[Jack Sparrow]

Captain Jack Sparrow, pirate, sometime bounty hunter, Kashyyyk's senator, and newly-minted head of both the Trade Council and Penal Oversight Committee, strolled purposefully into Vaudin Miir's office, his loose-wristed hands seemingly having a conversation in sign language with an invisible companion.

"Very well Mr. Miir, I've arrived," he said, sweeping his hat from his head theatrically. "What service can I provide?" Inclining his head to the left, he took in the sight of a beautiful woman in a skin-tight black body suit and grey cloak. "Hopefully it involves a friendly relationship with you, love? Captain Jack Sparrow, also known as Senator, at your service." He lifted Coci's right hand and kissed it with a bow before noticing the bottle on the table. "Is that a '29 Corellian Jonus Bonce?"

"No no, '27. Only the best for the company I keep." Vaudin said flipping a glass and pouring the deep red wine into it.

"Jack," he said nodding to Coci, "This is Agent Sinopi of the GIA."

Vaudin took a long drink and raised his voice slightly.

"And soon My Azure Goddess will stop listening and join us." Vaudin said in regard to Serenity.

Vaudin sat on the desk and waited to see who would speak next. It was Sabaac pure and simple. Vaudin cool, Coci cold, Jack the wild card. Things were shapping up nicely.

​

As she raised her glass to her lips once more to take some more water, her eye brow raised as the new comer entered the office with a flourish. She did not take her eyes off him and her hand inched toward her pistol. She slowly lowered the glass as he approached her and took her hand to kiss it. Normally she would have broken his arm as she twisted it behind his back for a maneuver of this kind, however since he is a Senator and here to work on this assignment .. she remained still.

Coci stood up and moved toward the bar area to top up her water. "Friendly relations are not my speciality Captain Sparrow", she said to the side as she regarded him now looking him over from head to toe and not hiding the fact.

 

[Serenity]

Soon the transmitter lit up, and before them was the image of Serenity, the AI that was in charge of the sorry lot before her. She smirked as she had been observing the entire time.
"Agent Coci, impressive display but did you not notice the gun barrels pointed at you from vantage points? I hope you did, you did not walk in here unasked because of me, please see too it that you don't threaten my senators again. " She analyzed the other two. " You the Red one, you really should ensure you go over my reports on your security you will find that 2 of them are unsuitable and the others are tolerable. Senator Sparrow... I am aware of your record and please ask that you refrain from pocketing anything, or else I will give orders to have you searched. " She said before waiting for them to bring up what they called her for. She wondered why she had to come up with covers for all three. Coci, if checked was away for surviival training. and Senator Sparrow was inspecting a jail somewhere.

"As you wish Director Serenity", she smiled for the first time, just because Coci was asked to the room for the meeting did not mean she could not be an assassin. She wondered if one day she would be looking down the scope of the White Mouse at one of these Senators, after all they are politicians and therefore by nature corrupt .. Coci knew one day the order would come down for her to do just that and 'remove' the corruption.

"What is our assignment Director?". she directly asked.

 

[Jack Sparrow]

"Friendly relations are not my speciality Captain Sparrow", she said to the side as she regarded him now looking him over from head to toe and not hiding the fact.

"Well perhaps you just need more practice, love," smiled Jack. At the words about "pocketing anything" from the newcomer, Jack's right hand, the one that had been holding the small Arkanian diamond sculpture, moved back to the desk and set the piece down again with professional ease; someone not looking directly at him would have seen neither the lift nor the replacement. Jack sniffed and brought his left hand up, taking a healthy swallow from the wine glass Miir had handed him.

"Yes, Director, what is our assignment?" he asked, glancing over at Coci and mimicking her stern facial expression.

"Serenity, my blue goddess if I read and obeyed your every report you'd never come yell at me." Vaudin through up his hand taking in the office, "I do it for love you see."

Vaudin knew she would have a very intelligent and no nonsense response and he knew she'd be right, but once again details, details. He pressed a button on his desk and the reinforced durasteel blinds closed and a soft light bathed the room. Soft R&B began to play.

"Wrong button," Vaudin said 'that was for Serenity only."

Vaudin scrambled to hit another button and the music and lights changed to a holoimage of a certain new weapon employed by TGE.

"I brought you here to talk about his little beauty, not you Jack the Gun." Vaudin quipped. "I want to come up with a plan to either get one or get the prints for one and employ it in the republic."

​

Coci folded her arms across her chest and crossed her legs, as her eyes rolled in only that way a woman can do. Yes now she had no doubt that the order for the assassination of these two senators would come sooner rather then later. It would only be a matter of time before they would do something to arouse Serenity and Coci would be called. She began to size bother of them up for future reference. Captain Jack Sparrow, about 5' 7 or 5' 8, weighting maybe 150 or so lbs?, not to heavy to remove the body, probably preserved with all the booze and who knows what else. The other one, this Miir, looked to be a bit more difficult, 6 foot or so, 190lbs, looks like he would be a bleeder, hmmm plastic carpet for him.


However, her attention was brought back by the holoimage of a gun, now we are getting somewhere. She looked over the gun, most impressed the engineering and slick design delighted her. "How much does it weigh?", she asked interested in the gun itself before the plan. "Where are these held? I assume they are restricted to specialised use?".

 

[Jack Sparrow]

"Is this a prototype, specialty item, or is it already being mass-produced?" asked Jack, also very interested. His right foot began tapping to the music unconciously. "And more importantly, can I have one?"

Honestly, Coci had asked the most relevant question. Once they knew where it was they'd be able to plan how to get it.

"The one I have my eyes on is this (http://starwarsrp.net/topic/18052-zealot-compact-sniper-rifle/) and this (http://starwarsrp.net/topic/18644-sam-20-nexu-maser-rifle/)"

"Both are being used by Imperial troops. @serentiy can correct me if I'm wrong." He said looking at the holographic image of the GIA mistress. "And you will won't you my little electron. But we should be able to carry both away or the blueprints to build one."

Vaudin took another sip of his wine and poked serenity's holographic image and winked. He was going to get in trouble if he wasn't careful.

​

As the specs came up on the guns, Coci read them over. The Zealot did not impress her much, a very generalised sort of weapon in her mind, but she could see the value for the military, in fact they both are adaptable for this use. The 'Nexu' was more interesting, she liked the idea of kinetic energy rather in bolts, leaves no trace. But she smiled regardless as her personal weapon was still far superior then anything she had seen so far. Expensive to maintain but superior.

"I can see the value in these for the military, in the right conditions. They are adaptable". She was much more animated now with the interest of guns. "So?", she looked at them both, "Lets go?". She looked to Miir for the answers.

 

[Vaudin Miir]

"The diplomatic transport leaves in 6 hours." He said at last. "We'll be heading for Atrisia or something for discissuions and a little game of political Sabaac then miss Coci will take her people and she what she can dig up."

Vaudin was typically pleased with his less than Senatorial briefing and drank the rest of his wine.

"Questions?" He smiled at Coci.

[Serenity]

"You are wrong my organic friends, I speak of the SHVs-9 Hypervelocity Gun Turret and Light Shipboard Hypervelocity Guns (LSHV-11). It is a new shipboard weapon type, that I feel has great promise. We can grab those too, if you wish but my main goal is those. Also Hanna Vondiranach will be accompanying you. She is the Secretary of state and must be kept unaware of what we are doing, she is our real bait, she thinks we wish to discuss the possibility of peace. "
She said, glaring at Vaudin from her holographic display.

"This is probably a good time to mention plausible deniability," mused Jack, swirling the remaining wine around in the glass he held. "You know, how the Senate will most certainly disavow any knowledge of our naughty behavior should we be caught. Does anyone know the sentence for military espionage?" he asked. "No? Don't suppose it matters, really." The pirate drained his glass, sighed happily, and put it down on Vaudin's desk. "Well. Six hours. Just enough time to pack and take a shower. Care to join me, @Coci Sinopi?" he asked, scooping up his hat with a rakish grin.
