Breakin' Belasco

[Connor Harrison]

Senta City
Belasco, Expansion Region

Joon had left the Resurgent Empire to the glory of Serenno. Instead, she was off searching for a 'Brotherhood'. A name she had come by during her fight with the Silver Jedi Order and one in text left by her old Master, Darth Ayra.

This 'Brotherhood' were Dark Side followers. Practitioners of the Force in the same way Joon was with one goal - eradication of the Light and the Jedi who served it. To that extent, she needed to find them.

It was clear her mighty Empire would not return. Many would take the name, twisted in their own view of how an Empire should rise, but none would understand her for what she was. A weapon. The Resurgent Empire were bleeding outwards, and while Joon supported them, she was destined for more. The fight she had was with the Jedi Knights, not governments and star-systems.

Her black, spear-headed craft shot through the stars en-route from her last stop of Nar Kreeta to the world called Belasco, one where she understood this 'Brotherhood' had ties to. She may be wrong, she may be right. Either way, she wanted to find them.

The capital, Senta, overlooked the mighty Belasco sea and it seemed to be a thriving, rich, well-provided for place. Hopefully it wouldn't be one that should be burnt to the ground.

”My name is Joon of the Resurgent Empire. Requesting a peaceful landing. I bring no threat to you.”

Joon found there was no welcome committee or no communication, which was concerning. She flew towards the city and the external spaceport for a landing, but wary that she was possibly being watched as she did...

The Senator Kell Jerrex was overseeing matters regarding the government. He knew that it would take time for the Sith to strike and so he had spent time infiltrating a well-known government with his political background, that in due time power would be absolutely his. The destruction of the Light for him would not be done by strength in numbers, but with deception and sticking to the Shadows, as he had found within the Banite Sith of old, the Sith were able to crush their enemies through the art of political intrigue. This is what he would accomplish as Darth Interitus.

As soon as he had heard of this new arrival, he grew all the more curious and transmitted the codes that allowed for the stranger to dock. He then had guards meet the stranger in the Hanger. The guard spoke to what looked to be a young woman. "Greetings and welcome to Belasco. Senator Jerrex will see you." He said escorting her to a taxi which would transport her from the spaceport, to a huge skyscraper.

She was then escorted through a turbolift, and through several floors before finally reaching a door. The guards escorted her inside, where the room looked to be part office, part bedroom. Jerrex looked at her as he was sitting at a desk, he then looked to guards and said kindly. "Guards leave us." He said looking at her, as the guards then departed. The room was furnished with various art pieces, and furniture across, if one looked closely, the art pieces had a hint of Sith Influence in them, to the average admirer they were nothing.

Jerrex then looked at her and spoke in the same gentle accent of his core world tone. "Greetings I heard you were coming, please sit make yourself comfortable. I am Kell Jerrex Senator of this system. Please sit could I offer you a drink?" He said keeping the guise of a kind Senator skeptical to reveal his true nature just yet.

Joon rode, walked and observed in silence. From the spaceport across the city and up into the heavens of the skyscraper, it was a place to rival many cities she'd seen before.

The office she was led to under armed guard reminded her of the halls of Sojourn, and the fort her Master once inhabited before it burnt to the ground. A well dressed man sat behind a desk - Senator Jerrex.

With a glance behind her, Joon's corrupted eyes flashed as the guards left. There was a stench in the air. It smelt familiar. It smelt...welcoming.

”No, and no.”

She did not drink and she did not want to sit.

”Thank you for the welcome party but there is no need. I am not here to talk politics. I am here to find the Brotherhood. Do you know of them.”

As always, she was to the point with a stern face that didn't waver from looking at the man behind the desk.

The stench wrapped around her.

He looked at her, he was merely puzzled by her, did she not sense anything at all. Of course, he was hiding his Dark Side aura. She was clearly oblivious to the fact that a Sith was staring her right in the face. Still, this would prove interesting as he had no idea of what to do with her, and so he would have to start with revealing himself.

He looked at her, his gentle core world accent started to turn cold as he spoke. His dark aura still hidden within the Force as looked her in the eyes. "You seek the Brotherhood girl. You are looking at him." He said dropping the calm demeanor as his face became cold and so had his tone. When in private it was no use to keep up the sickening facade of a Politician. For now, he wasn't Kell Jerrex he was Darth Interitus.

He said looking at her, knowing the game was up.

As the curtain seemed to fall around her and the office, the warmth of the Dark Side sweeping over her and the Senator revealing his true side, Joon chuckled and clapped her hands.

”The perfect politician. A corrupt liar. Good job.”

She took a step closer and placed her hands on her hips, meaning business, head held high.

”You will call me Joon. Or Justiciara. I am not a girl. And what do I call you, boy. And tell me about your Brotherhood. Why now? What drew you out of the woodwork of the Dark Side?”

Her lips couldn't help smile a little. The Dark Sider was confident and strong in the Force, and she felt it radiate from him.
