Sith Embassy {Open}

[Axelpro]

Varion arrived at the embassy and looked at the receptionist. His glare would peer through her outer features and deep into her being. Finding nothing of interest in his search that was started on a whim the Dark Jedi proceeded with what he wished to discover.

I require the use of one of "our" submarines.

He wasn't in the mood for any antics as his deathly glare showed. He was particularly annoyed and wasn't ready for any insolence by someone who was lower in the Echelon of Power than he was.

I don't think they'll care too much if they have to replace one receptionist...

[Jenno]

By the time Varion had arrived, the receptionist had become very busy trying to decide if one of her hands was larger than the other. And, just as she had begun this wholly worthless task, the one in the robes arrived again, this time asking for a submarine, of all things.

"Um.. yeah... soo, like... we don't have any, ok? Now, can you get out of here?"

She placed a small "closed" sign on her desk.

"We're closed..."

[Axelpro]

(wouldn't I be technically part of the Sith, therefore able to enter freely through the Embassy? And for a small outlet of anger I don't have to go through an entire rp thing to kill this receptionist do I?)

[Jenno]

(enter where?)

[Axelpro]

(well the embassy isn't just the receptionist is it? Shouldn't there be living quarters, training room, you know the Sith Facility that you infiltrate in Kotor, it should be a large facility that I would be able to access...being a Sith/Dark Jedi and all)

[Jenno]

(Sure, they just have no subs)

[Axelpro]

Varion gritted his teeth and extended his hand through the force. Without even raising his hand he had the intern suspended in the air as he gripped on her neck.

I feel sorry for you...

That was what the Dark Jedi was all about, "feeling" things. He would search his feelings, use his feelings, command his feelings. It was his strength, weakness, and ultimately his source of power.

To be the straw that has broken the last bit of patience I had within me...to be the last person to reject me, turn a negative attitude towards me. I could sense it in you, what was annoyance became fear.

Varion seemed to be taunting the intern as he looked at her with his cold brown eyes. They seemed to peer into her soul like he did with so many others. There was no sparkle of potential within her. She was utterly useless to an extreme extent.

Your fear...it is appropriate, you need not fear me, but your own death. For you aren't strong enough to do anything about it...

Varion's words came out of his mouth ice cold, and he raised his right hand up with his hand open. Clenching his hand into a fist he heard something snap and the intern fell limb.

I'll continue my search tomorrow...

Varion continued into the Sith Embassy as he searched the compound with the force to see if there were any Dark Jedi or Sith in the Embassy.

[Jenno]

(Um, sorry, but I'm going to have to point something out here. At this point, as I've stated, there is incredible security on the surface of the oceans around Ahto City. Surface Scans. If you threw a body overboard, the Selkath would be there to throw you off the world so fast, you'd never even hear the splash. So just cut that last line, and we're good.)

It had been a very frustrating last couple of days for Varion Astol as he continued his search for the source of the Kolto problems. He did in fact know that there was something going on beneath the gleaming surface of the planet. This Dark Jedi was relaxing his nerves by training fervently with the other Sith and Dark Jedi in the facility. Things from lightsaber battles to practice with the force were in his regiment as he cleared his thoughts from his first day on Manaan.

I'm going to need a submarine, but finding one is proving difficult. Perhaps the computers on this pathetic planet might prove useful.[/color]

Varion quickly found himself a computer within the Sith Embassy and began his research. His eyes moved left to right as he looked over the results from his search for submarines on Manaan. Obviously looking for those companies, groups, people, who had Submarines. It was obvious at this point that Varion was going to have to "relieve" one of these people of one of their most prized possessions on this planet.

(You're up C. Guy, and can I use Force Cloak?)

[Corstar]

[[There's no such thing as Force Cloak.. Mind Trick, if you're strong enough, can make people forget they saw you, or can see you. most of the subs would probably have alarms though if you just waltzed in and hopped in one.]]

[Axelpro]

(I guess it was just something imagined by KOTOR then, I can do without)

[Jenno]

If ever there was a fruitless search, this was it.

The computer system of Ahto city was designed for the Selkath, who seemed to detest and denounce all other authorities in the galaxy. Though, this was their world, and they hadn't changed in the last millenia. It seemed that the surface of Manaan's ocean was only to be crossed by Selkath, and then only with the council's permission. There was, however, an interesting note at the bottom of one article that stated something about "Benefactorail Inspectionary Privelage" But as to informaion regarding this, there was none to be found.

<To Kolto Factory>

[Corstar]

Kieran came out of the trance slowly, grimacing as he felt bones pop. His jaw had set back into place correctly, fortunately, but it still hurt considerably.

He sat up and heard a light thud. A lightsaber.

It had fallen inside his robe, on the floor. Kieran looked around the cell, noticing the camera above the door. He smiled weakly at it before lying back down and holding his head. He wanted the room to stop spinning before he tried anything.

It took several minutes before he regained his wits. Sitting up again, he reached inside his robe and snagged the lightsaber, placing it on an inside pocket. He stood up carefully and grimaced before walking to the door. He knocked on it lightly, listening to the echo. Looking up, he noticed the camera was tracking his every move.

The lightsaber swung out and neatly took the camera off of it's hinge. Kieran sidesteped the falling bit of metal and began cutting through the door.

Ignoring the alarms, he shoved the door slightly and grimaced at the loud clang it made as it fell on the metal floor. He spun the Silver/Grey lightsaber in his hand, getting the feel of Regnier's lightsaber before striding towards the nearest computer terminal. He accessed it and began a search for the embassy map.

[Regnier]

Mid-sentence, the Dark Jedi leading Regnier to a meditation room was cut-off by ringing alarms. He spun slowly and reached for his personal lightsaber, but was stopped by a broad knuckle back-hand that nearly took him clean off his feet. He recovered, but rather than going after his own lightsaber, which had landed across the hallway, reached for one of the other two on his belt, though he didn't have enough time to reach it, let alone react, as a massive palm caught him in the solar plexus, doubling him over. He was caught by a pair of tree-like arms, slammed against the wall, and physically thrown across the hall into the opposite wall, impacting with a sickening crunch. He made a stunned grab for his original lightsaber, but was again slammed into the wall by a hard kick that broke ribs. Regnier didn't even pause his onslought, instead grabbing the darksider by the back of the head and bouncing his face off the floor with a sickening crunch, grabbing the loose 'saber, activating the crimson blade, and decapitating the darksider in one swift motion.

A droid came running around the corner and attempted to raise its rifle, but was stopped as it flew into the far wall with enough force to break it into several pieces. Regnier retrieved both of Kieran's blades, placing the yellow blade on his belt and moving the silver blade to his main hand, switching the crimson blade to his left. He looked around for cameras, and not noting any, sealed the door from the training rooms and the Dark Jedi's living quarters to the main halls, taking the corpse and remains of the droid with him. He immediately activated a security terminal and saved a copy of a map to his datapad, as well as deactivating the security cameras, at least temporarily. With that, he opened the door and stepped into the still-empty hall, sealing the door behind him, and started for the detention area, deactivated saber in either hand.

[Axelpro]

It was already in shambles the moment Varion stepped into the embassy. The alarms were already ringing and as far as the Dark Jedi could tell, they hadn't replaced that intern that he had disposed of earlier.

There weren't too many Dark Jedi in the embassy, Varion counted a total of three not including him that were stationed here. Now he could no longer feel one of them through the force so he knew whatever was striking at this place probably had strong ties to the force.

If they had strong ties to the force and were attacking this embassy Varion put the intruders under "hostile" in his memory banks. With that he began to step slowly into the embassy and down the first hall. His hands were neatly at his sides, but his strides were precise. Each stride Varion moved his hands in such a way that if anything should come and even attempt to surprise him that he could summon his lightsaber to either of his hands to defend himself at all times. His legs only came far enough to make a dropped stance on command. Varion's head looked forward at all times, but his perceptions continually reached out to feel his surroundings.

[Corstar]

Kieran took a datapad from a nearby terminal and uploaded a map of the facility to it, before stashing it in his robe. The lightsaber came to life as he fell into Soresu as bolts began a torrental sideways rain.

The red bolts richochetted away as the grey lightsaber became a flury of color. It spun in the Jedi Master's hands, sending half of the bolts back at the Sith Security Guards. There was a burning smell of ozone as Kieran moved closer towards the guards. Two out of four had been knocked out of the fight. A parry and a slash and the third one was lacking a limb. He fell screaming to the ground.

Allowing a bolt through, Kieran raised a hand and caught it, funneling it into pure force power, picking the man up and crushing his own arms against his body. There was a cracking sound as nearly every bone in the Sith's body broke and collapsed inwards. The trooper hit the ground and fell in a bloody mush.

Kieran walked over to the wounded Sith, who was still screaming, before slicing the man's head off cleanly at the neck. It had taken less than thirty seconds. It had been far too noisy.

Turning off the blaring alarm through the console, Kieran disabled the security measures of the Embassy using a quick series of commands. As soon as he finished, he slashed the lightsaber through the computer controls.

Turning, he opened himself up to the Force. He felt several presences in the near area. Regnier being one of them. The others he could only feel a darkness eminating. They weren't familiar.

One was getting closer.

Kieran turned off the lightsaber, clipped it to his belt and partially walked, partially ran to the door, he opened it up to a side corridor. He stepped into the turbolift, hitting the upwards button, he waited as it rose to the Sith Master's quarters.

Regnier, meet me at the Master's Quarters. I escaped successfully. Kieran projected into Regnier's mind, as the man got closer to the turbolift downstairs.

Kieran stepped off into the corridor, took up position a few feet away so he could watch both ends and waited for the Jedi Knight.

[Axelpro]

T-two Jedi...one tricked a S-sith.

Varion held the soldier by his uniform. The Dark Jedi throttled the soldier who was mortally wounded by a deflected blaster shot. Varion had made considerable ground on the intruders, but they remained unidentified.

I b-believe that...

Varion throttled the soldier some more in order to possibly get a little more information, but nothing. The soldier had breathed his last which caused Varion much aggravation. Varion threw the soldier a couple feet using the force to aid him. The action served to calm him down a little bit, enough to focus on confronting these Jedi.

They might serve to slow them down...otherwise they are utterly useless.

After the cold thought for those who fought alongside him had passed he looked out with the force. The two Jedi were still separated, something that was still beneficial. He began to head to the Sith Master's room.

With that Varion continued towards his prey with the darkness flowing around him. It wasn't too deep as to engulf all those around him, but it stained the clear thoughts of a common force sensitive.

[Regnier]

Regnier coughed as the smoke began to clear from the blast of the concussion grenade. He was lying flat on his back, staring at the ceiling and mentally willing it to stop spinning. His ears were ringing, and he could taste copper in his mouth. Everything seemed to be going in slow-motion. Within two seconds of hitting the floor, the Jedi Knight vaulted to his feet in time to deflect a red bolt that came screaming through the smoke from the crimson blade. The silver blade snapped to life in his right hand as a flurry of bolts followed, though these weren't simply reflected into the ceiling as before, but sent back towards the life-forces of those that had fired them. The Knight advanced forward, but no bolts came through the smoke after the second wave, and the reason was apperant after clearing the smoke: there were no guards left from the attacking group to fire them.

The Knight wiped a trail of blood from his scalp and set off down the hall at a sprint aided by the Force, not stopping as he passed more guards and battle droids. He careened down the halls, nearly as fast as the bolts that every so often followed him, though not quite. Not a shot hit its target, however, and anything that came within reaching distance was simply sent back at the firer, usually lethally. In a matter of seconds, the Knight reached the proper turbolift, purposefully avoiding the dark presence on the same floor to save time. The lift was still on another floor, and rather than wait for it to come down, he used the console to open the doors manually and stepped inside the shaft. Once inside, he used the Force to leap several floors up and propelled himself off the wall in the same manner until he came one floor underneath the lift, where he grabbed the emergency ladder to the side. He climbed up above the lift, opened the emrgency hatch on top, dropped inside, opened the door, and stalked out.

He glanced down both directions of the hall, before disabling the turbolift. "I believe these are yours, Eitan." He said as he tossed both of the Master's 'sabers to him. "I managed to kill one of the Dark Jedi here. According to their training records, there should be two more inside. Three, if the one that killed the receptionist comes back. Did you find anything useful?"
