One week before
---------------

"Lord Venom"

I turn in my chair, to face Darth Havok

"What is it Lord Havok?"

"I have a person seeking to join the Rogue Sith Order"

I snarl. "Another? Do these idiots not realise we only will accept those who will obey our doctrines? We do not accept children and those who would be corruptions of Sith!"

Havok holds back a slight smile. "Ahh, My Lord, this one is neither. I personally recommend her joining."

"Allow ... her? to enter"

Dara Shadowtide enters - a Sith I am aware of already - and I immediatly sense the dark Side is with her. I rise from my chair. "Lord Havok, I have my part of the plan to be done. I will use this to test her. Come with me Shadowtide"

---

A week later

---

I crouch in one of the cable cars, finishing off the preparations. Dara Shadowtide keeps a lookout. I signal and we both go into hiding and to do a final equipment test.

She looks up and I nod, placing a blade in a wrist sheaf.

"Ready?"

She nods

"Lets go"

This is happening as the same time as the other assasinations and the rules of this game apply. Anyone who has posted in the other threads will be ignored.

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 24th, 2000, 06:10:39 PM
:: Dara crouches down in the cable liftcar, concealing daggers and other weapons on herself. She looks over at Lord Venom, the epitome of evil, as he finishes his preparations for their mission. Dara is honored to be among the Rogues now and will prove her worth to the Emperor.

It is a warm tropical day on the planet Kashyyyk. Lush foilage and ancient trees populate the planet. Thick vines hang from the trees as they are suspended far above the ground. Venom and Dara are performing surveillance on their target and will commence the plan very soon. The planet's inhabitants are unaware of them as they scurry about. Wookie dialect permeates the air as kroyies fly about.

Dara: "Lord Venom, I have the coordinates of the target and all is going according to schedule. We shall be set to rendezvous shortly."

Venom: "Excellent. Let us leave no detail unchecked. Failure is not an option."

:: Dara nods solemnly and performs last minute checks on all steps of the plan ::

Venom
Sep 24th, 2000, 06:28:23 PM
I bring forth my Force Pike, for this event painted black to stop reflections on it's normally shiney surface. It is charged and ready to be used. I look up, see nothing is about and signal to Dara to move to our next chosen cover.

Triebakk
Sep 24th, 2000, 06:40:55 PM
:: Triebakk, the wookie senator from Kashyyyk, sits at her desk, going over the agenda for the next New Republic session. She reads the quite ordinary list of things to cover but notices a listing of groups at the bottom under New Business ::

"Hm, discuss the existence and purpose of said groups discovered by New Republic intelligence - Rogue Sith Order, the Sith Empire, The Sith Order, The Imperial Empire, Greater Jedi Order and The Gungan Council. I wonder what this is all about. I have never heard of these groups so they must be miniscule."

:: Triebakk shrugs and then rises to look out the window of her large treehouse like office. It is a slow day and travel should be rather uneventful to the meeting. She begins to gather her things ::

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 24th, 2000, 07:26:08 PM
:: Dara sees the signal from Venom and nods in acknowledgement. Dara remains crouched and puts on her dark cloak and wookiee pelt disguise, and then rises to pilot the liftcar to the designated coordinates. Venom remains unseen in the liftcar as Dara is able to proceed unnoticed through the series of complex vines and platforms. The schematics of the planet's transportation system that she purchased have paid off quite nicely.

Triebakk's office is heavily guarded for a politician. Dara spots three entrances on the west side of the circular building and suspects another three on the symmetrical east side as well. One wookiee guard is posted at each entrance and is armed only with a traditional bowcaster. After docking the liftcar, Dara leans over as if to check on some cargo and disappears from sight. She speaks quietly to Venom ::

Dara: "Lord Venom, there are three guards on the west side and I suspect another three to be on the east side."

Venom: "It looks like I will get to spill some wookiee blood with this Force Pike before I engage the senator. So be it."

:: Dara and Venom climb out of the liftcar, using the car itself to mask their presence as they prepare to move closer to the building ::

Venom
Sep 24th, 2000, 07:43:40 PM
Venom : I will take care of the guards on the East first. When I make my move, I expect Wookiees to come from everywhere.

She nods as I sneak off around into some more cover. I see that there will be no way to sneak unde rthe cover of the guards, thence, the direct assault is required.

The Force Pike is raised and then it is thrown with deadly accuracy straight throught the face of one guard, it needle sharp tip cruching through bone and brain. As the Wookiee falls, I emerge and attack the other two Wookiees. They may be big themselves, I am probably the only human they would ever see that is actually larger and stronger. It does ont matter either way. The two sliptip knives I produce are into Wookiee hearts faster than they can react. I pause to pull out the Force Pike from the first dead Wookiee and I see the other guards from the west are now alerted. Dara is nowhere I can see, as planned

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 24th, 2000, 08:18:59 PM
:: Dara levitates a shingle from the roof and sends it flying over the platform. This disruption catches the attention of the three young wookiee guards as they move to investigate. Dara stealthily moves up to the closest guard and quickly ignites her saber through his skull while ripping downward. His lifeless body drops to the ground as blood pools all around.

The two remaining guards hear her attack and rush to engage her. They tower over her petite frame, but size is nothing compared to the power of the darkside which she weilds at her command. She channels the rage she feels into pure darkside energy and force pushes a wookiee guard into a nearby beam to the office, splintering it upon impact and simultaneously crushing his skull and snapping his neck back. She watches him fall to the ground lifeless yet does not see the laser bolt coming towards her from the remaining guard's bowcaster. Her upper arm is seared by the bolt as the burning sensation coarses throughout her body. She focuses this rage as a cold and evil wind whips about her being.

She ignites her second saber and force leaps toward the guard, slicing his bowcaster arm while shoving her other saber into his groin. He roars and topples over, nearly taking her down but she is able to masterfully slice off his head as he falls lifeless to the ground. Her third and final preliminary target eliminated, Dara moves closely along the office building, careful to stay out of view as she makes her way to the office of the Senator ::

Venom
Sep 24th, 2000, 10:27:29 PM
I ran at the back door, shoulder charging it. IT split under my weight, then taking a few steps back, fling myself at the door again. It explodes into a pile of splinters and I am inside the Senator's rooms. There is no one in here, but with the layout plan we obtained, I know where this Senator probably will be.

I head for the senator's office....

Triebakk
Sep 24th, 2000, 10:29:53 PM
:: The Wookiee Senator finishes gathering the last of her things for the trip and notices it is unusually quiet outside. Normally she would see one of her nephews walk by on guard duty, so she walks to the window to take a curious look.

A deafening roar resounds throughout the office walls as Triebakk sees the bodies of her nephews scattered about, blood everywhere. She rushes to sound the alarm as guards burst inside, quick to escort the Senator to safety. They surround Triebakk and move her down the corridor to one of the side entrances which will lead to her liftcar. As Triebakk is ushered outside, she catches a glimpse of a tall, dark figure approaching rapidly ::

Jedi Knight Leia Solo
Sep 24th, 2000, 10:48:40 PM
**A jedi runs down the hallway when the alarms ring..she happened to be in the area due to other New Republic business. The commotion originally coming from Senator Trebakk office, now is heard coming down the corridor outside the senator's room...Leia see's the dark figure approach the group.. The sith's back is facing Leia.

Leia:yells: Get her out of her NOW! Turn around at once!

**Leia runs up behind the dark figure to confront them w/her ignited saber*** Force runs and leaps over the sith..now separating the sith and senator** She swings her saber at the sith** Meeting blades w/the sith**

GO NOW!

Trebbiak's people escort her out at once to safety and board an air taxi waiting outside..for them.

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 24th, 2000, 10:49:47 PM
:: Dara hears the commotion and figures they have been spotted. Things must move more quickly and like clockwork for their plan to fall into place. She glances over to the landing platform and sees that the liftcars have been delivered as planned for the trip to see the Senator off for the trip to the New Republic session.

Dara then turns her attention back to the office of the Senator where she skillfully sets a series of explosives to force the remaining wookiees out toward the liftcars. All entrances except the one leading to the liftcars will be obstructed by an explosion.

A series of coordinated blasts sends the surprised wookiees outside to the only exit remaining as Dara moves quietly unnoticed toward the frenzy of screaming wookiees. She watches the Senator clear her throat and try to address the mass confusion in progress ::

Triebakk
Sep 24th, 2000, 10:57:45 PM
:: The Senator is rushed outside and turns to face the loyal employees of her office ::

"My dear people, there is something going on however do not be alarmed. We are safe and we will get to the bottom of this. Jedi Knight Leia Solo, I will not leave the good and decent citizens of this planet behind while I am whisked to safety. That is not my style. I am one of the people and I will remain with my people until they are safe. Now let's all calm down and take a look at this. What could possibly be going on here on such a peaceful planet such as ours?"

:: Triebakk looks around for answers ::

Venom
Sep 24th, 2000, 10:58:38 PM
A stunned Jedi sees her blade go out as the Force Pike I had in my hand, Cortoros shielded, intercepts the blade. I give the Jedi no time to recover, rearing up to my full 8.5 foot height and then lashing out with the Pike, smashing the Jedi backwards and out of my way. The Jedi hits a wall and meets the pommel of the Pike on her temple as I reverse swing at the Jedi's face.

Seeing this Wookiee has escaped temporarily due to this JEdi, I take a run at the window and smash through it...

Jedi Knight Leia Solo
Sep 24th, 2000, 11:06:25 PM
**Leia turns to the senator**

The sith are up to no good! I suggest you leave now, I am here to protect you and your people. BUT you senator must go now!

**With that security escorts the senator out in a hurry and leave for safety**

**Leia later..continues her confrontation w/Venom...igniting her saber again and chases him out the window where he went.** knowing the senator is already out of harms way**

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 24th, 2000, 11:10:36 PM
:: Dara chuckles at the noble Wookiee talking and then moves to set off the communications jammer she had placed as she moved around the office building initially. The wookiee are listening to the senator as Venom is beating up a rather pesky jedi. Dara moves closer to her predetermined position, ready for the next phase of the mission ::

Venom
Sep 24th, 2000, 11:14:30 PM
As the Jedi comes out the window, she is hit with the pommel crashes into her windpipe. As she staggers, I reverse the Pike and then fire at the Jedi. A blast of electrical energy hits the Jedi, forcing her to back off again and stagger. I fire the PIke again, this time adding some of my own Force Lightning in a co-ordinated attack. The Jedi staggers from the attack as I advance, not letting up. I stop the twin energy attacks only to do a triple step and kick the Jedi under the chin.

Backflipping away, the Force Pike is now fired straight at the back of the Senator

Triebakk
Sep 24th, 2000, 11:29:08 PM
:: Senator Triebakk looks at her office employees ::

"My good people, I will not leave you behind when any possibility of danger is around. I am no better than any of you here. We all leave at once, or I don't leave. Period."

:: The Senator nods to the security guards who are awaiting her command and she continues to look for answers to this strange series of events, when suddenly she feels a burning sensation in her back as she is dropped to her knees in pain ::

Jedi Knight Leia Solo
Sep 24th, 2000, 11:36:11 PM
**Leia staggers up but regains strenght thru the force and gets up and with force speed rushes to Venom and Leaps and knocks him down to the ground with a jacknife kick to the head before he can get and !take aim w/his force pike** Venom plummets to the ground** Leia slashes his back w/her saber..leaving a severe burn** Quickly comes back with her saber and smashes the hilt in the back of his head..causing a big gash..as blood starts coming out** Venom lays there stunned** Leia quickly stumps on Venoms hand..making him release the force pike and hurles it away w/a force throw..unforeseen to anyone where it landed**

Leia screams: GO ...Leave now...! Just get her out of here regardless!

** THe guards leave in and take off w/the Senator**


OOC: I am having very bad problem w/connections. I ask you to play fair and wait for responses...thank you**

Venom
Sep 24th, 2000, 11:49:21 PM
The Jedi looks down as a hand grabs her ankle. She gives out a startled gasp as the huge Dark Jedi pulls her off her feet and then grasps her ankle with hands. I twist violently and she screeches as a pud snap is heard. Getting up quickly, I leap and land onto her chest knees first. As she gasps in pain I get up and charge after the Wookiee.

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 24th, 2000, 11:52:02 PM
:: Dara watches as the Senator is hit by Venom's shot. Instantly the other wookiees move to instinctively surround Triebakk and guard her from a further attack. They shield her body and carry her to the liftcar nearest them.

Dara watches as all the wookiees are taking spots in the available liftcars, preparing to depart to safety and foil their plan. Dara glares at the jedi for interfering once again where she does not belong... she will pay for her meddling ::

Jedi Knight Leia Solo
Sep 25th, 2000, 12:18:23 AM
** Leia gets up w/a limp to her foot and in some pain, but not enough to stop her**Looks on and sees the Wookies have managed to escape...**During this time the wookies looked on to their Senator, she was struck but it wasn't a mortal blow..they take off to seek medical attention immediately and are now long gone from the scene** Leia back at the point of attack, see's Venom has taken off trying desperately to find where the wookies went..but has lost them** Leia sees Dara staring on from the distance**
The jedi ignites her saber and readies herself for a possible attack**

Triebakk
Sep 25th, 2000, 12:41:22 AM
:: Triebakk grunts in pain as she is carried down the landing pad to the liftcar by her loyal guards. She looks around and sees that all her faithful employees are also boarding the liftcars and that brings a smile to her face to know her people are going to safety with her. She speaks on the comlink before they go ::

"My fellow Wookiees, we will travel from this office and stop by a medical facility before our next destination. I am in need of a bit of medical attention, but I am strong because of your continued support."

:: The wookiees cheer at hearing their Senator speak after taking such a blow from the sith ::

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 25th, 2000, 12:55:55 AM
:: Dara reaches out with the dark side and senses the presence of the Skywalker scum looking at her. She moves to ignite her dual sabers and walks methodically toward Leia Solo, who is walking with a marked limp now.

Dara pauses to look at her chronometer and smiles. The wookiees do not realize that their original order for liftcars was somehow cancelled. The liftcars they are in now have 'special modifications' and were ordered by Dara just prior to her arrival at the office treehouse.

At that moment a series of blasts go off in one second intervals. One by one the liftcar vine cables are snapped as the liftcar full of wookiees plummets thousands of feet below to the lower levels filled with the traps of the webweavers.

The liftcar with the Senator has not had the blast detonated yet and in a risky move, Venom ignites his lightsaber and moves to take care of the matter personally as he sees Wookiees begin to panic.

Dara keeps her attention on Leia Solo and moves to intercept her path at any cost ::

Venom
Sep 25th, 2000, 01:03:07 AM
I note where Dara is and she points in the direction the Wookiees went.

A lift car? Foolish.

I run forward and leap at the cable, cutting in two. Explosions on the liftcars sound out as the cable parts and the lift car bearing the Wookiees shake and begins to drop. I turn my back on the squealing beasts and in my hand a remote detonator is revealed. With a smile under my helmet, I press the button and all the remaining liftcars, the Wookiees included blow to pieces. I look back, seeing flaming pieces going everywhere

The previous sabotage we did to the lift cars was well worthwhile

Venom
Sep 25th, 2000, 01:06:03 AM
I look over the edge.

Nothing.

Job done.

I move away from the edge and call out to Dara.

"We leave"

Dara Shadowtide
Sep 25th, 2000, 01:09:46 AM
:: Dara smiles and nods to Venom and she runs to where he is at the side of the platform. Dara turns to Leia Solo one last time and gives a smile and a wink, and then Venom and Dara jump and disappear over the edge ::

Venom
Sep 25th, 2000, 01:34:31 AM
One week later

--------------


"Dara Showtide"

She comes forward, to kneel in front of the the Stih of the RSO.

"You have proven yourself worthy. Stand Dara and welcome your destiny..."

I watch as she smiles at Darth Havok. Yes, indeed, she is worthy. The RSO grows stronger
