USH'S GAME EPISODE V- 'MAUSOLEUM'- DARK SIDE AREA

"well..i guess one's as good as any other" says Takuan approaching one of the elevators

Kuylen checks the security sensors, double-checking. He seems a little... not exactly on edge, but...

Dak and Galder, as born warriors you understand. Kuylen is expecting a fight.

The eevator can easily take all of you, even Chion's bulk (he is being quiet as ever, of course). And it starts to go down. And down. And down. And dow.

Dowwwwwwwwwwwwn...

And soon you can all sense the vague presence of nearby life. Lots of it.

"Kuylen, I'm sensing life forms. Below us." Galder looked at Kuylen a little harder. "You are expecting a fight, aren't you? Should we ready our weapons?"

Rah feeling the lifeforms and the edgy vibes coming from Kuylen, Galder, and Dak gets his sabre to hand ready for any trouble when the lift stops.

Takuan readies his saber.

Galder does as his other allies are doing, preparing to shoot his lightsaber out of his compartment and into his hand.

"Wow, we are already going to be have a bit of fun, and we just arrived!" Wraith says with a chuckle. "Unless you already know what we're in for, Kuylen..."

"Listen," says Kuylen. "It is very important that we do not start a war. We cannot fight this whole planet alone.

"We need to cause some trouble- but to take some people alive. As quietly as we can. Before long they will work out visitors have come and worse, what those visitors are, and then things become very difficult."

"Oh goody, taking hostages. I HATE taking hostages..." Galder says, making it very obvious. "So what if they know we are Dark Jedi?"

"Hopefully they will not be hostages," says Kuylen. "And when they find out, Galder, they will kill us."

The lift has reached the bottom. There is life teeming all around you- not immediately in front, but in the general vicinity. it is the feel of civilisation.

"Oh goody...so hide your lightsabers? Use guns instead if it comes to combat? And what do we need to capture people for anyway?"

The lift doors open.

And, from a viewing balcony in front of you, you can see... a city.

A huge, impossible, underground city, with aritifical light and great buildings and hover cars and crowds of beings and every evidence of available civilisation.

"Not capture as such," says Kuylen. "Don't you think it would be polite to get to know these people?"

You seem to have emerged into some sort of reception area, done out in the gloomy brown that pervades the city (not surpsiing seeing as it is carved out of the rock). Behind a desk here, however, is a being.

He appears to be some sort of frog-like species, complete with green skin and bulbous eyes. He is wearing synthetic clothing, however.

You are not entirely sure what an astonished frog looks like... but the look it is giving you now cannot be far from the mark.

"Cha-si! Tutu-na-tamm!" it says, helpfully.

Slipping his sabre away before exiting the lift Rah smiles at the froggie, lifts an open hand in greeting and says "Hello!"

(oh...damn...i wanted to ask earlier if this would by any chance be an underground city..but i got disconnected. Well..so this is the one in my vision)

"kuylen.." says Takuan visibly worried "what is our purpose down here"
He probes with the force to get a reading on the beings' feelings towards them.

At this point, shock. It doesn't know who the hell you are.

"Chai'ta?" it asks. Kuylen produces his lightsabre. The frog's eyes widen.

Now it is scared shitless.

"what the..." Says Takuan now having his saber in his hand also, not ignited "i thought we were going with the low profile part"

"I don't see anyone else around," says Kuylen.

The creature reaches for a nearby red button. Kuylen suddenly blurs forwardsa and ctaches the creature's arm.

"I don't think so," he says.

"we'd better be carefull, this is a good place for a trap" says Takuan still looking around "what are we doing here?"

"Kuylen, are we killing him or not? Or is he coming with us? And what the hell is he saying? Wraith, don't you have a translator in the suit of your's somewhere?"

(No such things as translators in Star Wars- you need a protocol droid)

"No, we aren't killing him," says Kuylen. He reaches over and presses the red button three times. "And I am not sure what he is saying."

"Are we also supposed to not kill the people this is going to bring?" asks Saar.

"I think it will bring the right person."

"What makes you think that?"

"Instinct."

Saar rolls his eyes. He walks up to the frightened frog being.

"Is it really true?" he asks Kuylen. Kuylen nods. Saar shakes his head, as if he does not believe something.

"Talking of traps," says Kuylen, "there will be people coming now. Kill anyone you have to, spare anyone you can, do NOT kill the leader."
