Kir:
Kir's arm lowered, almost dropping her blaster as she saw the attackers thrown back and slammed into the wall. The vibration traveled through the soles of her boots and she looked with curiosity at this Veth. She'd never seen anything like it and every fiber of her being said, "that creature should never have been set loose."
Sienn:
The sand storm had finally abated and a grumpy and tired Sienn was now stowing her gear into the back of a speeder. The zabrak Zynn was whistling a cheerful tune, which only made Sienn grumpier. Seeing her scowl, Zynn grinned, "cheer up. You can sleep while I drive. It'll take us about an hour or so to get to these coordinates," he said as he tapped the datascreen with the information Ikewe's droid had provided. They'd chosen a spot in the dunes, several hundred meters from the actual target.
Sienn grunted something unintelligible as she climbed into the speeder and promptly curled into a ball on the seat. Fortunately she was small enough that the dash of the vehicle kept the wind from blasting her as they zoomed across the sand. Still grinning, Zynn opened a comm channel, "we're on our way now" he said to the gruff voice that answered. |

While Maximus and his team slowly shook off the effects of being slammed into the wall and subsequently the ground, Malice calmly stepped forward, his sword twirling in his hand. As the first of the floored Jedi was struggling to his knees and grasping his lightsaber, Malice looked over his shoulder at his master and their reluctant allies.
"Get moving,..." Malice said, a wicked smile creeping across his adolescent face. He turned back to the Jedi on the floor and raised his sword, "I'll take care of things here."

Caere jerked her head towards the attackers as the droids and group of jedi stormed into the room. She leapt to her feet and ignited her saber... only to yell out as she felt the force effects as Veth threw the attackers and half of the room against the wall.
As Malice stepped forward with his sword, she stepped forward as well. The red glow of her saber illuminating the space around her, she remained ready to face them, ready to attack.

Daina is horrified as the destroyer droids proceed to mow down the scientists..that is, til she is pushed out of the way, and the droids are sent flying thru the far wall...
While they are not turned completely to scrap, their shields are shortcircuted, and as the surviving scientists start to flee, a lightsaber with a blue-white blade flies at a droidka, finishing it off.
Daina pulls her gun and starts to blast at the other droidika still on its side...til the saber hits that droid on the return trip to Arithon's hand. His eyes are still wrapped, but he wields it as if he could still see...
"How?" she asks...
Arithon smiles grimly..."I used to train blindfolded, remember..."
"The Force?"
"Yes. Go see about Buzzz...I think I felt him flying.." He gestures towards where Buzzz landed...
Arithon steps forward with Malice and Caere, ready to take on the Maximus and his force users...as Daina heads behind that terminal to check on Buzzz...

Malice reached over with his sword and tapped Caere's lightsaber blade, the Phrik metal throwing off sparking shards as the weapons touched.
"I said, I got this." Malice shot Caere an angry glance. "Get our master out of here."
The closest of Maximus' Jedi henchmen had stumbled to his hands and knees and recovered his dropped lightsaber. Still looking at Caere for acknowledgement, Malice caught the green blade's ignition in the corner of his eye. Growling at his own lack of focus, Malice turned his sword downward and caught the Jedi's blade as it reached out for his knees. With sparks flying, Malice's sword slid along the Jedi's blade of light, across the hilt, and up the Jedi's arm. An arc of blood splattered the Jedi and the wall behind him as he dropped his weapon to the floor next to his severed thumb. The Jedi bit down hard on his lip, refusing to cry out, using all of his influence over the Force to suppress the pain. His opponent's silence diffused Malice's bloodlust; the young disciple of darkness kicked the Jedi in the chest, knocking him back to the floor.
Malice looked to his master, then again to Caere. "Go." |

Kir:
Kir was already moving away from the group, back toward the elevator. She wasn't looking to wind up chained to a wall again any time soon and she wasn't about to argue over staying to fight.
Ikewe:
Ikewe strode down the carpeted corridor and stepping into the waiting lift. She pursed her lips as she stared at the buttons for a moment. Where should she go? As she considered her choices she pulled a comlink out of her belt, "Spark. Time for a wardrobe change." She closed the channel without waiting to verify the little droid had received the message and was making his way out of the storage levels and to the rendezvous point.
Staring at the controls, Ikewe swiped the key card and made her selection. She exhaled deeply as the doors slid closed, hopefully she wouldn't be seeing that room again, ever. |

While all the action ensues around him Veth only stands there.
"Go" He hears Malice tell him but Veth ignores it, more interested in the people that entered the room weilding lightsabers. The other concious member of Maximus's group reaches for its fallen lightsaber, only to have it be sucked through the air and enter Veths open hand. Examining it for a moment Veth notices this is not a weapon that was built by Sith or jedi, it is crudly built with cheap metals and synthetic crystals, lacking any design or the originality that all Jedi and Sith put into their weapon. Glancing over at Maximus's group Veth looks oddly at them for a second squinting his eyes with curiosity.
"...These are not Jedi or Sith," The dark monotone voice of Veth says. ".... Their abilities are not natural, they are stolen."
After saying this Veth's red eyes move to the armored owner of the lightsaber, who sits on the floor next to his 3 other unconcious companions. The armored being raises his wrist to the composit armor mask its wearing and speaks into a comlink built into its armor.
"Hunt squad dow-" It manages to say before it ibegins floating up in the air as if it was being lifted in the air by its neck by some unseen force and begins choking loudly. Veth stands about twenty feet away arm outstretched, hand positioned as if cupped over a throat.
"...using your fingers, I want you to tell me on which floor would I find what powers this structure" Veths cold voice asks the floating body, who immiediatly makes a minus sign with one hand and then raises four fingers with the other. "Negative four correct?" Veth asks the being again who gives a thumbs up. Still choking loudly and making short pant noises under its helmet, Veth speaks to him again "And on what floor would I find the walking dead that are responsible for my presence here?" the being barely raises 7 fingers in return. Veth clenches his hand tighter and the sound of the armor around the soldiers neck creeks through the room before the being is sent sailing through a terminal and crumbling against the wall. |

Daina has just helped Buzzz get back up as the soldier goes flying, pulling the musician out of the way before the body collides with Buzzz instead of the wall....
"Um...I think Veth's ticked off now..." She gets Buzzz to safety before Veth can throw anything else in their direction...
Arithon just stands there as Veth moves...then turns towards Veth. "You're right. They took my blood..and your blood probably...and took out the mitochoridians...our bodies would make more, you see," he explaines calmly."And they would be force sensitive. I just hope they haven't figured out a way to make the change permanent, else any two bit dictator could raise an army of force sensitives..." He is quiet for a moment...then...
"I take it we are going to floor seven, then?" |

Caere looks at Malice with contempt for just a moment before retorting, "Oh right, because 'our master' really needs YOU to protect him." She couldn't help but laugh.
She glanced towards Veth and watched as he choked one of the fake jedi. Caere backed up a bit and walked towards the flattened 'jedi', twirling her saber in her hand, waiting and ready to attack if they so much as moved. |

Ikewe:
Ikewe braced herself at the back of the elevator trying to be prepared for whatever might be on the other side when the doors opened. As the doors slid open she peered out at Floor 4, a crumpled body lay on the floor but other than that, the floor seemed to be deserted. Frowning she leaned against the wall staring at the control panel. Now where? She wondered if Buzzz had a commlink on him. As the doors closed Ikewe decided to try to send Buzzz a message. Maybe she could at least let them know she was no longer on the 7th floor. |

| Jondon got up groggily to be greeted by an onrush of lightsabers. The only thought he could register was Oh good, they have their weapons ba.... This thought was cut short when one of them charged him, swinging wildly. Jondon ducked and kicked the fake's feet out from under him, knocking him and his lightsaber to the floor. Too close, he thought, picking up the fallen lightsaber, What in the Force was he doing with this? He turned the blade on, swinging it around, trying to get used to the weightlessness of the blade. Another one of the fakes rushed him, and they parried. Unused to the feel of a lightsaber, and only being able to use one good arm, Jondon began letting the blade wobble about wildly. Better finish this quick he thought, and kicked the fake in the leg, while stabbing him in the chest. As the fake limply dropped to the floor, Jondon turned off his saber and unslung his rifle. "Too risky." he muttered to himself, and continued with the battle. |

Veth Continues looking at the second rate lightsaber in his hand for a second longer before crushing it in his own hand, The lightsaber Jondon holds floats from his grasp and explodes in his face.
"Someone such as yourself does not deserve to weild any weapon..... even a cheap replica of one..." Veth says to Jondon without looking at him.
"Caere, Malice.... both of you proceed to basement level 4. I imagine a place such as this would have a significant power supply, and that it would not take much to use such power to disintegrate this place." Veths empty voice commands.
"and you..." Veth says looking over his shoulder at Awerp. " Perhaps you would cherish a part in this place's destruction?, After all they have done to you............ I know I would" Veths Hollow voice says with a hint of persuasion. " Or perhaps you would rather help your friends in their plans on releaseing more bodies?".
Elsewhere in a dark room filled with security monitors and a handfull of Magna droids Jenovicks and Jenkins examine the monitors in the hallways outside the room on level six.
"The hunt crew has been incapacitated, but they are still alive according to their displays." Jenkins says examining the heartbeat readings of Maximus and his group. "What now sir?"
"Alert all floors to prepare to engage whatever unidentified target arrives on the lifts. and engage the two juggerdroids. Its time we gave them a feild test" Jenovicks says with a shakey voice. "We cant take any chances" |

| Buzzz was starting to stand when Daina pulled him back to the floor."I take it we are going to floor seven, then?" she said. Just then his commlink went off. "Not so fast Daina" he said "this is Ikewe calling now. "Ikewe where are you" Buzzz said into the commlink. |

Ikewe:
Hearing Buzzz' voice, Ikewe smiled slightly. She hadn't actually expected him to answer a comm channel. Maybe her luck was looking up.
"I just checked the 4th floor, but no one's there. Now I'm on the way... hmm it feels like it's going up but I didn't select a floor so not sure where it's heading... Where are you? Maybe I can redirect this lift." |

Awerp stood back and watched as Veth delt with the group of fake Jedi and destroyed two of the weapons they carried. Tilting his head to the side he watched Caere and Malice argue over what to do. Only to tilt his head further and listen to Veth speak next.
Awerp looked at the group for a brief second before returning his look to Veth...
"I want to destroy this place" Awerp stated, anger in his voice
"The others can do what they want" |

I could turn the other way, take control and make a change. Take me, Take me away. You can bend me I won't break, things won't always go your way. Take me, Take me away. |

Daina remembers watching Arithon push the button in the elevator...Leaning over Buzzz..."Floor six is where we are, just got jumped by some goons, Veth took them out damn near singlehandedly," she reported..."Looks like we may be moving out and splitting up though...."She fell silent as she heard Arithon say thru the Force *Floor seven, and floor minus four*. She repeated the information to Ikewe.
In the meantime, Arithon looked in the direction of his former padawan, and grimly nodded, grateful that the floor he had been on was evacuated...and saddened that Awerp had chosen his path...and it was not the light..
"Ikewe's in an elevator now," Arithon relayed to the group. He'd deal with Awerp later.
Edit: fixed two times, one to correct the floor, then to correct the correction. (Daina is having a really bad day)

Ikewe:
Ikewe listened to the young voice on the comm, sounded like... oh what was her name.... Daina. When she heard "Veth took them out..." she cursed loudly. "What moron let him out?" she asked herself. Her eyes narrowed as she remembered a hand gripped around her throat in that cell. "Of course!" she thought as her brain finally pieced together why something about him had seemed familiar.
Into the comm link she replied "I don't intend to go back to floor 7. It's time to leave," she said with a hint of anger in her voice. |

Caere merely nodded towards Veth, and deactivated her lightsaber as she walked towards the elevator. She paused for just a moment as she listened to Awerp's decision. A slow, wicked smile flashed across her face as she looked at him.
She continued to walk on towards the elevator. When she stepped in it she fumbled across the tech's shirt that she had taken with her. With a half-hearted shrug, she put it on and tapped her foot impatiently as she waited for Malice to join her. |

Arithon heads over to the elevator as well, to wait for Ikewe...
In the meantime, Daina checks her gun out of long habit as she thinks about her next course of action.
Every fiber of her being protested working for...that...creature...but another part of her realized that if they were to survive...he might be able to help, however unintended that 'help' was.
Another part of her realized just how close she had come to residing in a bacta tube...and wanted to keep that from happening again. If that meant removing Jenovicks from the picture, she was all for *that*....
*I got some decisions to make*, she reflected...*but only when this is over with. Til then, I'm still me, not some crazed glowbat wielder.* She suppressed a giggle at the idea of herself using one of those lightsabers. *Not a good idea, I'm likely to bury it in Awerp...* she realized. *More so than Caere..she's actually kinda cool when she's not playing Sith Witch*...
