[SIZE=14.6667px]A planet that’s capital city doubled as a spaceport. It was a hub of activity on the planet, countless millions came through the city, lived in the city. Carried on about their days in this city [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]as if they were safe from all things in the Galaxy. It was foolish to have such thoughts, especially with the Triumvirate drawing closer to the Coalition’s Space. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Darth Athyssius wore his black hair neatly cut, a [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]cloud of the Force[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px] wrapped around his being to conceal the Dark Side’s aura that would otherwise roll off of him as if he were a tsunami within the Force. The raging hunger within that was always famished, was silent, forced by his mastery of the Dark Side. Garbed in his suit of armour, just as the [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]retrofitted[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px] Pyrrhus-class Gunship[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px] was coming out of hyperspace, his appearance changed after scanning a surprisingly average flight suit. Probably from some smuggler pirate that had been cut down by the Triumvirate months ago.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]It didn’t matter where it came from.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Armed with only the blaster pistol on his waist and the trusty Hapan Gun of Command around his right upper thigh, he certainly did look the part of a rugged smuggler. His facial features had even been changed to match someone visually similar to… Well, someone else. Anyone who knew him wouldn’t recognize him. And that was the plan. He was unsure as to why, but it was likely to preserve the sanity of some Zeltron out there. It wouldn’t do to have her coming after him for lying about something else. Not that he actually cared [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]what she thought… Right? [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Rolling his shoulders while he was sat in the cockpit, he heard the hail from the planet’s Spaceport Security. The retrofitted ship’s IFF read them as a cargo ship, naturally, the question that came across was along the lines of what was being transported, how long it would take to drop off or pick up their cargo and how long they’d be staying on the planet. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]As polite as ever, the Sith Lord’s answer, came over in a modulated voice in the event that transmissions were recorded and traced back to him. As if they had his voice files on record, stalkers, right? Anyway, he sounded younger than he actually was, and with that youth came the sweetness [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]that almost always accompanied it when an adult questioned an adolescent.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]“[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]What’s being transported?[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]” He repeated, “[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]None o’ ya business.[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]” Surprise was heard on the other side of the line before he continued. “[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]Maybe an hour or two? However long I [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]feel.[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]” So deep into the part, his arm lunged up and he jabbed himself in the chest as if they could see him over the voice comms. Flicking off the comms before he could hear a retort, the ship almost immediately picked up speed heading down to the planet in the surprisingly sizeable stream of ships heading to the planet. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Thought there was only traffic in Coruscant Space....[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Hate that place.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Sighing, there was the sound of blasters and other weapons being loaded. There was nearly two dozen of the Herglic mercenaries. Twenty-two to be exact. All armoured by the Koodan-class battle armour. Shaking his head as he glanced back over his shoulders, although he couldn’t see into the cargo bay, he knew in the bay that there were multiple deactivated [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]riot droids.[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px] They were all armed with [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]MARS-12[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px] rifles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Oh, and there was a box with a fun little toy in it in the corner too![/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Those would likely come up on the sensors and scans performed on the ship by the Spaceport’s Security. Of course, the passenger compartment was hidden from the planet’s sensors and scanners, that would likely draw interest that one cheeky adolescent was flying a ship containing an assortment of droids. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Anyway, after breaking through atmosphere and heading down to the Spaceport, he recalled that he wasn’t given a designated landing spot. “[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]Bumpy.[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]” Was all he warned over the ship’s intercom as they burned down to the planet. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Leaving the autopilot on a setting to land in the largest hangar bay, he immediately went through the process of wiping the ship’s navigation logs. Removing the blaster pistol from his waist, he placed it on the console as he took the controls back and cheekily landed in the last open spot before another, much smaller ship was about to take. As bad a pilot as he was, the Gunship grinded upon multiple ships that were already in position around the spot.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Should’ve brought my pilot.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]The repulsors kicked in underneath the ship, preventing it from actually any more damage than it must and he rose up to his feet.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]He didn’t have to say there would be a security team outside the ship. It would be a small one, there was only one kid [/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]on it for all they knew. Not all these beefy Herglics and a dozen or so combat droids. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Boy would they be in a world of hurt when that door opened. Likely a massacre, but anyway, reaching down to the commlink in his pocket, he clicked it multiple times, the signal for [member="Lassiter"] to begin her three minute countdown of beginning her part of the operation.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Far to the other side of the capital city, was Darth Drethi, the Sword of Vahl Sith Knight, or at least she should’ve been. Her directions had been to rest in the Daisya-Infiltrator and load up her carefully laid out into some civilian’s speeder she should’ve stolen. Or killed for. He gave her freedom like that. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]She had arrived earlier than him on the planet. In fact, she had been on the planet for the last few days while his retrofitted gunship was travelling to the planet. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]The Daisya was their escape ship, hidden far enough away from the capital that patrols likely wouldn’t find it. And why would anyone be looking for a ship out there outside of the capital? No one would be out there anyway. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]With the increased strength from the SI-HD Armour, he crushed the commlink into literal pieces, lifting the blaster from the console and leaving a few rounds in it to turn it to dust as he headed towards the door. Halfway through, he turned back into the cockpit and repeatedly fire shot after shot into the navigational computer and the rest of the consoles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]While he destroyed the equipment, there were incessant cries and banging on the ramp. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Probably the welcoming committee. He had left them waiting for how many minutes? Whatever.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Even if they were wiped, he didn’t have a doubt that some way information could be found on them. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Stepping into the cargo compartment, the ramp was still closed as he cleared his throat. Behind him, there was the twenty-two Herglics weapons loaded and ready as the riot droids activated and stood around the disguised Sith Lord. “[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]Protect the ship for as long as possible. Push out of the bay and kill as many as you can.[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]” The young holographic face that had become his own offered a cheery smile. “[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]Most of all, have a good time. It’s not every day this sort of thing happens. If it’s necessary, use this toy I found.[/SIZE][SIZE=14.6667px]” He waved his hand over to the cargo box in the corner. A single baradium missile was in there, a payload large enough to level the entirety of the Spaceport. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Of course, he had a remote detonator somewhere in his pockets. There was no way he was trusting one of these mercenaries actually blowing the Spaceport up. Sith trust issues of course. But none of them knew that of course.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.6667px]Fun.[/SIZE]
