REX's Game - WAR ZONE - The Jedi Order

Keirra double checks her straps. Next, she unclips her lightsaber and presses a tiny button near the end of the handle. A tiny compartment slips open. Keirra removes a slender necklace from the lightsaber handle.

"What's that you've got there, Keirra?" asks Trebor.

The Scythesaber is now leaving the atmosphere.

Keirra: "What? Oh, this." She disattaches the necklace and hands the object to Trebor. "This is a necklace that used to belong to my mother. I've been told that there's a history behind it, but to me it's just a small token that reminds me of my family. I keep it in my lightsaber for safe-keeping unless I go on a mission, in which case I wear it"

"That is a smart idea," says Trebor, looking it over in his hand. "A fine piece of jewelry." He hands it back to you and looks at your lightsaber. "It does look a little longer than a normal human or humanoid Jedi's lightsaber."

Keirra gives Trebor a mischievous smile, "Well, now you know my little secret."

Trebor nods, returning the smile, but then turns to his controls. "Okay, we'll be entering hyperspace...now," he says. He pulls a lever, and the ship is shot into a "tunnel" of streaking stars and blue light.

Keirra: "At least the entry into hyperspace went smoothly. So far, this mission seems normal enough." This is probably where things go wrong she thinks ruefully to herself.

(Julie, did you read my plot or what??? 😱 )

Suddenly, Master Trebor looks uneasy, and then a message starts on the comm. It is somewhat broken up, and it's a recorded message. "This...Adegan 4...private transport...Manu-Ki-Tora...requesting help...ships...area..." the message says. It then repeats itself. Trebor hits a button on his control pannel and a hologram appears next to him. It is a small hologram, like a hologram an R2 unit would project.

It is of a young man, dressed in a battered pilot's suit. The message repeats itself, clearer and more of the message, due to Master Trebor's fiddling with the controls. "This is the ship Adegan 4, a private transport for Manu-Ki-Tora. We are requesting help from ships in the area..."

"Holy Sith!" shouts the hologram unexpectedly. This is a new message from the Adegan 4. The hologram stops talking and begins to cower back. A man in dark robes leaps forward and uses a LIGHTSABER to chop off the poor pilot's head. Then man then turns to the comm on the Adegan 4 and takes a blaster from the dead pilot. He fires at the comm and the message ends.

Coleman Trebor quickly pulls out of hyperspace. "Kakoii, Serina, pull out of hyperspace! We have received a distress message from the Adegan 4."

Kakoii reacts immediately and pulls out of hyperspace. ''What should we do?''

(Holy Sith???!!!)

"Do we have a trace on that communication?" asks Arleth.

OOC: (Capt Rex, what are you talking about?)

Ic: Keirra grasps her lightsaber. She stands by the hatch ready to leap off as soon as they dock with the distressed shipThere's not much we can do for that poor guy now, but maybe we can catch his killer.

(Holy Sith is like saying "Holy shit" for the Jedi I think)
(Julie, you said that things would go wrong just before I was gonna make things go wrong!)

Trebor turns to the east (Adegan 4 at 3 o'clock 😂 ). The ship is about the size of the Scythesaber, and you can tell it's a private transport. It has 2 turbolasers, which are rapidly firing at...nothing. "They're short-circuited," Trebor says after doing a quick scan of the ship. "We're going to have to board."

(I don't think that QUITE works, Rex...)

"It's too small too land inside," says Arleth. "Do we have a boarding tube or will we have to shuttle over?"

OOC: Just good old fashioned jedi instincts 😉
IC: Keirra turns to Arleth and smirks at him. "Why don't we just ram them and then cut through the hull with our lightsabers?....though to answer your question I believe that there's a tubethingy we can use."

"Oh, a TUBEthingy..." says Arleth. "I'm glad you'll be going in with me..."

Keirra takes a hair tie and quickly sweeps up her hair so that she can flight more easily if it comes to that. "Yes, indeed..." she says in a distracted sort of tone.

Arleth watches as the ship grows larger as they draw near, with perhaps one eye on Keirra doing up her hair...

(Did I say dock? 😄 )

Trebor pulls the ship up next to the Adegan 4. He pushes some buttons and then gets up. "Okay, time to board," he says. He takes his lightsaber from his belt. He goes to the door and uses the control panel. You here a mechanical thing moving, then the door opens with a woosh. He walks over into the Adegan 4 and motions for you to follow.

Keirra picks up her lightsaber with a flourish. "And now to the real work..."
