Coalition Operations I: From the Ashes (RP. Apply in the Sign-Up thread.)

[AJ Fawxe]

The doctor looked at the heavily augmented raccoon and sighed deeply seeing him volunteer with another burst of religious mumbo jumbo. 'Great, this fool is going to get his crazy on again. Perhaps something blunt will hit him upside the head and knock the crazy loose.' The doctor's facial display flickered to a sly smile before shifting to an impassive expression.


"I don't guarantee I'll be too good with this drone piloting deal, but whatever. I suppose I don't need to be impressive, just distracting..."

[Romulan_Furry]

 "Trask, is there anything specific i should be watching the scanners for?" Krystal and Serena asked simulantously


"Yes - any reinforcements or ships that might disrupt our operation," Trask responded.

"I don't guarantee I'll be too good with this drone piloting deal, but whatever. I suppose I don't need to be impressive, just distracting..."

"That's what we're going for - a distraction, a diversion, something to keep Tondam's attention on us and not our infiltrator team," Trask affirmed. He brought up a map of the intended AO. Highlighting an area just inside a Mutara Nebula, he continued, "Here's the game plan - We'll drop out of slipspace here - the eye of the Jarrok Mutara Nebula. This is where we'll drop our Marauder Drones, and they'll take form while we move under cloak for the facility. I recommend those of us that can familiarize ourselves with standard Imperial Vessels from Zaarin's Empire - that's who our drones will be masquerading as..." he highlighted a narrow corridor of the surrounding nebula that exited directly in front of the Tondam Facility. "... Once the drones are dropped, we'll follow this corridor under cloak and approach the facility. Assuming all goes well, we'll get within transporter range of the facility," He looked to Tic, Rylou and Ray. "I know some of us aren't comfortable with the transporters, but it's the stealthiest way to insert you - and get you out - without risking detection too much. Once you're inside, find the database and Tic will access it and find what we're looking for. Once that's done, find a secluded spot and signal to beam out." He looked to the others. "The rest of us will stage an Imperial assault on Tondam's facility here. We need to cause damage, but the idea is to make sure they're so focused on the Imperial ships that they don't notice intruders. Once Tic, Ray and Rylou have the data we need, we'll feign an Imperial Retreat and follow them here..." he highlighted an area beyond the nebula surrounded by loose asteroids. "... it's here we'll collect our drones again and high-tail it to safety, where we can review the data and, perhaps, have a better idea of what we're dealing with. Any questions?"

[Alessia Starfurr]

"In that case I'll program the drones to carry tie defenders." Serena spoke up. "IF we can launch enough fighters from the drones we might be able to cause enough of a ruckus to keep them busy for awhile."

[Rylou]

"If we are caught I should be able to hold them off for long enough to get the data, just make sure those teleporters work." Rylou seemed a little aggravated as he said the last part, probably remembering a less then pleasant time.

[Lacar Lacrest]

Lacar grinned before putting his hands on his head"Finally some action, just give me the order and i give you the best piloting skills you'll ever see" i smirk loving the idea of the drones craving the taste for action in battle.

[Tina]

Tic did a slight bow be again before heading off to the transport bay, wanting to make sure she was ready as soon as the raid went into motion. Though looking behind her at the people who were to escort her, she was a tad bit worried. Rylou seems like a kind soul and while she trusts that he will do his best, she unsure of what Ray will do. Ray in Tic's eyes has proved to be a bit unpredictable and seemed to butt heads with most organic creatures. Tic main hope for this mission was that Ray and Rylou didn't find a reason to point there guns at each other, as they had earlier with the young girl found stowed away on the ship.


...


Meanwhile Reyela was taking several devices from Rylou's room that didn't seem important to her and started disassembling them pretty effectively even with the few tools that were on hand. Through what security cameras could be seen it looked like she was using the parts to build something, using her own personal energy to bend and remake certain pieces into what looked like drone parts.

[Rylou]

Rylou began walking back to his room to get his gear ready for the mission and check up on the stowaway they found earlier. He knew that while Ray wouldn't try to do anything to Tic because of his religious fervour, and as long as he didn't threaten him he would be alright too. He had spent some time with religious zealots, and knew that they can be easily worked around if you spoke kindly enough.

[Tina]

Reyela perks her ears up as hears movement down the hall, but relaxes when it just sounds like one person. She was a little paranoid of another squad of holograms coming to get her and was jumping at even the slightest of noises.
Reyela was almost done with her drone and had used parts from communication devices, some spare weapon parts and a couple other things that looked useful. However she couldn't find certain parts and why she could probably easily take them from some of the computer devices, she figured those particular devices we're important.


However...her keen eyes did spot a camera hole near the ceiling and figuring no one would miss it she starts climbing up to retrieve what she could.

[AJ Fawxe]

The doctor waved a hand through the air, a gesture of casual dismissal. "They go in and take stuff, we shoot stuff from the safety of the ship, then we leave. Quick, easy and simple. Let's not overcomplicate things. No plan survives contact with the enemy."


The doctor wore a look of complete disinterest on his display. It would seem he was utterly indifferent to the assault. It was, perhaps, a little concerning.

[Rylou]

Rylou stepped into his room to see Reyela reaching for a security cameras and noticed the tech components on the ground.
"Hey, you're awake. What did you do with this stuff?"
He gestured to the parts on the ground, more concerned then frustrated.

[Tina]

Reyela jumps from the wall and with remarkable speed is under the bed. Peaking out as she shakes she looks up at you.
"Need computer parts...programing friend." She say looking down like she did something wrong.

[Rylou]

"What do you mean friend? I'm not mad, I just thought you didn't know what you were doing. They were bombs and gadgets, volatile stuff."
He squatted down and extended his hand to help her out from under the bed.
"If you need parts you could ask, I'm sure there are plenty spares."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray looked at Tic as one would look upon a god. He said nothing, but his eye looked her up and down. A few moments would pass, before the metal raccoon shook his head as if to rouse himself, and turned his attention to the commander. "What kind of resistance shall we face? What happens if you are forced to escape without us?" He looked down at himself in distain before speaking again. "I have not had the chance to replace my need for sustenance, only decreased its pertinence." Ray glanced at Tic for a moment. "I have not undergone any more of my transformation in a few months. I am sorry I cannot stand eternal along side you, Convergent."

[Tina]

Reyela takes the hand and blushes, nodding.
"I know what do. Needed parts to make sentinel, sentinels protect but are friend." Reyela says as she crawls out. She holds up the droid and it looked like some like a box with a single eye that she fashioned from a rifle scope. The top was currently open and inside the technology looked somewhat more advanced then before, like she had made good work of enhancing the pieces she had gathered. However it didn't seem complete as there the center was completely empty and based on small tubes and connectors inside it looked like a core was supposed to go there. The only unsettling thing about it was the caliber of the gun it had attached, which was a laser machine gun with an armor piercing mini canon underneath. This thing was built to kill, but Reyela seemed to hold it like it was some sort of pet that needed attention even if it wasn't active yet.


Tic looks at Ray somewhat unerved for a moment but calms herself. She stays silent for a moment as she thinks of what to say.
"...you know what you are made of doesn't matter right? You could be a machine like me, a being of flesh like the people of this ship or even a simple hologram, but in the end your actions and what you do with yourself will truly determine what you are worth." Tic says and puts a hand on Ray's should and looks into his eye. "So please do not fault others for how they were made, because in the end even machines don't last forever. We all fall apart just the same."

[Rylou]

Rylou looked at the bot dumbfounded.
"That's really advanced, especially considering you only had scrap."
He looked around the room for a second.
"Me and two of the people you saw earlier are going somewhere, do you know how to fly a drone?"
