*** Star Destroyer
Reckoning, Coruscant Orbit ***
"Very well," Draco said officiously. "Let's get moving." He started for the hangar bay, hoping his team was in tow.
*** Geidi IV, UT Battle Arena ***
Keesha dodged the attack, then made three lightning-swift strikes at the helmet which would knock it off her head. At the same time, she made two strikes just as fast at Rochell's legs, aiming to immobilize her.
*** Starship Chimera, Geidi IV Orbit ***
As Malachai was beamed down, Kyle snuggled next to Gypsie, as though to try and keep her warm.
*** Unburnt plains, Dragon realm ***
Anna chuckled, playing back at Raz as she moved with the others. Her expression was serious, however, when she looked to the others. "Someone mind explaining to me what exactly is going on out here?" She asked.
*** Sangheilios Local Space ***
The Battlecruiser, as it was struck with the missile, turned on another vector, and went to light speed -
away from Sangheilios. The vessel's trajectory put it on a direct path for Gorbis Mongdrigo.
On board the
Undying Will, the Shipmaster received a message on his command interface, then spoke to his crew: "All hands, battle stations! Make ready for Slipspace Jump!" He looked to Garrus and 213. "If your 'Great Leader' wants a war... he'll get one. Let us see if he can stand against the might of the United Sangheili Republic!"
All around the vessel, the Fleet of Justified Retribution - consisting of multiple
RCS and
CCS Cruisers, many
SDV Corvettes, six
ORS-class Heavy Cruisers, four
DDS-class Carriers, two
CAS-class Assault Carriers, and one
OAS-class Supercarrier - organized into formation, and all made a slipspace jump toward the target.
*** Planet Nirn, Akavir, Crash Site ***
Andru and Inorra continued to kill any of the serpentine warriors they saw, slaughtering them until they couldn't see any more.
*** Outer Space near New Romulus ***
"Indeed," Commander T'tocs answered. "We have no reason to harm you - if we wanted you dead, you'd know it already. We both stand to gain from this, but time grows short. Any minute now, that damaged Tal Shiar ship will report this incident to their base, and they will relocate; it is unlikely we'll get another chance like this again; and I needn't remind you, once the Tal Shiar know who you are, they'll send their best at you. We are providing an opportunity to wipe your presence from their database. Are you with us?"
*** Krystal's Mansion, New Cerina ***
"Understood - Tokarev out," Markus responded to the Leviathans. He cut the channel and looked to Krystal. "It may be a trap, but a trap you know about is one you can use to your advantage; and I needn't remind you, the
Iron Regent is equipped with those Marauder Drones. We can handle whatever a rogue Sith Lord can throw at us."
In the back yard, Saraabi made a suspicious, "Hnh..." as she stared at Crystal, before she asked, "If you're not mom, who the hell are you, and why do you look like her?"
*** Indari Manor, Dragon'taan ***
"Honey, I told you - the last time wasn't my fault," Drake responded to Amie. "I wasn't trying to scare you that time."
*** Reznov residence, Dragon'taan ***
Ketorr cocked an eyebrow at the vixen. "No," he said slowly, his voice picking up speed. "Last I checked, Krystal Indari-Tokarev lived in her own estate on New Cerinia. It's the moon orbiting Dragon'taan you saw when you came here."
*** Dragon'taan Bank ***
"Oh, no - not at all," the teller answered. "My friend's on Coruscant; she owes a couple million or so to a casino and she... well, she has trouble with this loan guy. I tried to tell her the man's a loan shark, but... well, she can be a bit naive sometimes."
*** Outpost 'Vadam ***
When the Sith Covenant fleet dropped out of Slipspace, it consisted of the usual vessels - ORS Heavy Cruisers, DDS Carriers, CCS and RCS Battlecruisers, stolen and refitted Paris-class Frigates and Halcyon Light Cruisers,
Harrower Star Destroyers, and
Imperator-II Star Destroyers, but also had a number of ships more alien - one was a
dreadnought, but while reminiscent of TEC Designs, was still alien; there were several
ships, seemingly of TEC origin, but just as alien as the dreadnought, And
several more just as strange, and some seemed far more alien than the TEC-reminiscent vessels, possessing a
strange design.
A transmission was sent out on an open channel:
"We are the Sith Covenant. We will have our revenge, and we will secure our place in Galactic Society. Fight or flee, it matters not - you will face our wrath!"
