Graveyard--Justice Shipping; ask for invite

[Tiali Orazio]

Tiali raised a brow looking at Thraxis, wondering just what sort of mess he has got himself into. He lets out a sigh "Well first please stop dragging that thing, your making me tired just looking at you" he looks over the cargo carrier 9000 "is there anything valuable in that thing or is this just something pointless."

Tiali shakes his head "Anyway what about the others? do you know if they're alive or are you the only one?"

Looking over to lumi then back to Thraxis "One last thing who's is the girl??" He says pointing with his thumb.

[Thraxis]

"First off, it is not simply a thing, it is the Esteemed Cargo Carrier 9000 Mk V, and I would hope you will refer to it as such." he snapped, it was such a good invention, at least, the best invention ever developed on this planet at the very least. "Secondly, yes there are valuables in it. Such as building supplies, food and water." he continued a frown rushing over his face, at least the Doctor respected the name, even if her comrades decided to snicker behind what they thought was some poor mind crippled invalid.

"As for if the others survived, no real idea. They all ran away when some giant creature attacked. Because they are yellow-bellied womp rat's." a clear look of disdain wrapping itself around his face as he spat, looking behind him and pointing to the large crater that was left behind by the beast. "Whatever was in there done it. Though I don't think there still alive. Spiting up tends to be a death trap. And with no black people to act as the first one to die. I suppose it became open season around here." he continued as his disdain turned to an almost satisfied grin. At least he wasn't dead. How boring the galaxy would be without him to entertain it.

"As for the girl..." he paused for a second, his head cocked as he looked to her then back to Tiali, "I wanna say Illuminati... but I ain't to sure. I think her friends are called Carlitoes and Mantids." he continued, the other two always seemed to keep their distance, similar to how the kids at school would distance themselves from the special Education Department or myself. Specifically myself. An all too familiar feeling for this writer.

[Kay-Larr]

Kay wandered through the old shipyard, settling herself under the wing of an old X-Wing. It concealed her from above and provided a bit of shelter. She put her satchel down and brought out her tea supplies, already putting together a small burner to warm up her kettle.

As she waited for it to brew and readied her cup with the right amount of crumpled tea leaves, Kay lost herself in her thoughts. She had a bad feeling, yet didn't know why. There were a multitude of possibilities, yet it was difficult to choose which one was the right one. Regardless, she was losing [member="James Justice"] . Or maybe he was losing himself? He was getting darker and darker and refused her help, always just brushing it aside. Was it because she was younger?

Kay poured the heated water and waited for the tea leaves to dissolve. Deep down she knew that their paths would intercept less and less until one of them was dead. And that was a very bad thought indeed. She wiped away a tear as she took the first sip of her soothing tea. "We'll be out of here soon...."

[Lumi Snow]

Malintis gave a groaning sigh as he relented to Lumi's orders--Carl suppressed a moan. She could feel both of their rippling and reluctant submission. Well, it would do for now. They would see in due time that she was right and this had to be done. She felt her ears prick at the thoughts directed at her--and the questions.

She looked at the stranger and Thraxis--despite being absolutely blind. Many species considered that polite and she tired to make them happy and do well to all.

"Hullo," she said with a cheery smile and a wave from her leather gloved hand, 'Doctor Lumi Snow, its nice to meet you."

She offered her hand confidently, taking a step forward. Even though she was completely blind, the mutant could see minds like lamps in the dark of reality, lamps that hummed with their own thoughts and activity. Each was unique like a thumb print. She couldn't feel much wrong in this fellow, though she had never felt darkness in anyone. At least, not real darkness. "Glad to meet you good sir, I hope you too are in the rescue party?"

[James Justice]

The space gave a quick look over his shoulder, "I will be honest, what I do is bad. Very bad."

He sighed and shook his head, "When I met Kay, I were a different man. Less broken, less hurt, less worlds weary. I thought I could make the galaxy a better place if I fought for the right causes for the right reasons. Then," he hesitated, "things happened," he didn't want to get into Roche, getting captured and tortured twice, Rose Blade's double crossing and the bombings of Dal'Bor, killing--endless killing with his own two hands to subdue men and women who did horrible things. No, he didn't just kill them. He made them suffer, just like they had done to others.

"I lost so much," he said introspectively. Leighlah, his father, his mother, [member="Nyx"], [member="Sasha Voss"], [member="Anara Valnor"]--so much. He had loved until he could love no more. He hoped until he could hope no more. James looked up in Denn's eyes with a grim smile, 'Truth is the monster I be now were always there. I just quit fighting him. I try to keep 'im from Kay. I can't let that hurt her. She is good, one of the few good ones left in the galaxy. I will give everything to take care of her, just like me kids--even if it means I gotta keep 'em from me, just like me kids."

He gave a rueful smile, drawing a cigarette, lighting it and offering one to Denn, "I own a planet. I can get ye a place to stay. Credits are no object. I need men and women who is willing to do dirty things for me. To go to hell with me," he took a pull from his cigarette, "So the next generation dun't." he flicked away ashes from his light, smoke gently pouring from his lips, "Are ye up to that?"

He pressed his ear com in, clearing his throat, "Good, mate, come on in to our new little shipyard. We be ready and waiting for ye mate."

[Tiali Orazio]

Tiali listened to Thraxis and at the same time watched the painful sight of Thraxis pulling the Esteemed Cargo Carrier 9000 Mk V, still wondering if he could have found an easier way. Tiali chuckles slightly at Thraxis "Giants? Yellow belly womp rats sounds like a load of fun. I feel like it's unlikely you would be the only survivor. But then again if anyone was to go through hell and survive it would be you."

Ilumanalti? Tiali thinks to himself slightly confused, then the greeting from lumi hit his ears. Turning to face lumi his eyes widen surprised by the cheerfulness "hi doc, I'm Tiali Orazio"

He raises out his gloved hand to meet with lumi's confident hand. His voice reluctant and slightly sarcastic "Yeah I guess I'm apart of the rescue team, I used to work with Thraxis so I'm here to help."

Mid hand shake he looks to the body guard then back to lumi "Big fella there doesn't look as happy to be here."

[Thraxis]

"Well, what can I say. When you rule over a part of hell you tend to became quite accommodated." he responded, chuckling slightly, if ever there was a hell to live through, he had done it three times. The first was on the crap hole known as the Pleasure Planet, Zeltros. The Second was his lovely slice of heaven the Pitt. And this would make the third time. A sort of home away from home if it was anything. "But I really don't get why everyone is so fixated on a rescue. The only one here who would-" he caught his tongue for a second, taking a second to correct himself with a short lived cough, "Should be alive is having a vacation." he said pointing to himself. It would be unfair if the others lived, he had survived crashing through an atmosphere, fighting a giant, getting tossed through trees and going on some sort of Psychedelic trip. If anyone else had survived they had better have gone through something of a close extant.

As Tiali became engrossed in his own conversation, slowly Thraxis moved back, opening the back of the container to start his dinner break. It had been some time since he had eaten, all that was in his system was whatever booze he had left. Looking through the large crates he corked one open, pulling out a small can and quickly popping of the top, his fingers running through some liquid and started to shovel food down his face, though only realizing his hunger once the first dollop of food hit his stomach.

[Lumi Snow]

"Oh how wonderful, Mr. Orazio," she said enthusiastically. "I am quite glad to hear that, there are several more life forms that we detected on coming in orbit, human, by the bio readings. There was another man, a Mr. Borra who was helping as well, with a planet of this size, I believe we could use all the help we could get."

Malintis shifted his weight when he was mentioned, Lumi could feel the alarm in his person at being mentioned. He was used to fading in the background. While he was naturally cautious and observant, he hated it when someone else pointed him out. She placed a gentle hand on his forearm, assuring him, it will be alright. He is on ourside.

"I am sorry," she said with a gentle smile, leading Orazio a few steps away cordially, "He means no harm, he is just wary, the Great Weave seems to inform him that this place is dangerous." When she was far enough away, she leaned in slightly and whispered, "Mr Orazio, please help me, sir. It appears Thraxis bumped his head during the crash. He believes he was some sort of man working for the Hutts and living in someone's basement named Sempera. I believe his mental integerty has been compromised and we should seek immediate mental attention for him."

[Tiali Orazio]

Tiali follows lumi until they're far enough away grinning he continues to listen to what lumi has to say. As the conversation escalates further Tiali can't help himself but laugh. He begins to talk in a sacastic tone " hey that's nice to say things like that! I bet big guy there..." he says waving to the guard "I bet he has some problems but I wouldn't say anything."

Tiali continues to treat the situation without a lick of seriousness in his voice "look even if he did get help, I'm sure he would drive the person helping insane before it would help Thraxis."

Almost finishing Tali leans in just at Lumis ear to whisper "Also Thraxis barely lies he just exaggerates the truth, doc." He leans back with a smile still planted on his face, he then gives her a wink.

(Ooc sorry had really short time)
[member="Lumi Snow"][member="Thraxis"]

 

[Thraxis]

Thraxis sat in his container watching as everyone slowly phased him more and more out, distancing him even more and more from the conversation. All the while scooping heaping of tinned food down his throat, his eyes bouncing back and fourth through the foliage, hoping that something would come and interrupt their talks about how much of a retard Thraxis is.

After a few minutes of drowning his sorrows in food he pulled himself up, moving towards the dancing flames of the ship, if they weren't going to help pull the cart along then he might as well go find something to do. He realized trying to pull the cart along of his own accord was never going to happen, so finding something to do would be a far better spending of his time.

[Lumi Snow]

She swallowed with a realization; things were even worse than she thought. Clearly this [member="Thraxis"] wasn't just some delusional man who had come to this reccently. Oh, no, it was worse. Far, far worse. She would have to find a way to tell her Zenva when she got home. Her sweetheart would be so surprised. And, of course, probably angry that she hadn't taken her along for protection, but that would be dealt with later. She bet her girlfriend would love to meet some of these new people she had found today.

No, this was much worse. Thraxis wasn't just some sane man who had come to lose his sense later on. No, he had a history of delusion. He had some wild idea that he had always been a torturer for the Hutts. She wished things had stopped there. No, that clearly could not be. Somehow he had convinced others, like this man, that he was some sort of torturer! Oh, she had to find a way to help them get the medical psychological attention they needed. Because no one could ever truly be a torturer.... right?

"Oh, well we need to make sure to get him out of here, safely then," she said, adding to herself and both of you before a psychologist, pulling back to safe distance. She turned on her heel, "Thraxis, Thraxis, where are you? Did anyone see where he went?"

[member="Tiali Orazio"]

 

[Thraxis]

Thraxis had been busy, keeping himself busy as he rummaged through the ship, looking through dead bodies for anything of value, a few loose credits was all there was on the dead crew men though. That and some snacks which he devoured with haste. As he walked through the ship he looked towards the group, an idea forming in his head quickly as his brow furrowed. He had heard their whispers, their ramblings of how he was mad. His fingers ran along his leg as it struck him like a bolt of lightning. If he could commune with the outside world. What was to stop Kay. "Oh... she is more clever then I give her credit for." he said as his lips coiled into a twisted smile. "So then. She wants to play Psychology on me does she. Make me think I'm mad?" he paused for a second, his smile sneering as to how he had not realized it sooner.


He paused for a second, taking of his helmet as he dragged in a deep breath, "You can't break what is already Broken! I see through your lies and deceit! You have already failed!" he bellowed, his body stiffening as he screamed before relaxing. Then looking towards the group, putting his helmet back on but not before cracking his knuckles, if she wanted to fight him on her terms he sure as hell wasn't backing down. If anything, he had full intention of rising above and beyond.

[Tiali Orazio]

Tiali lets out yet another laugh, is anywhere Thraxis stands safe he thinks to himself. Tiali begins to make his way over to a root of a tree. Sliding onto the root he sits down and wiggles to get comfortable. Looking back to the doctor "I think your too nice for your own good doc. Not that that's a bad thing." He pauses for a moment along with a deep breath "Well actually it is. People use good people."

Sliding his helmet back onto his head he rests his head back on to the tree. "You probably think the galaxy is bright and beautiful, full to the brim with good." He begins to fiddle and calibrate his wrist mounted sonic pistol to past the time "but the reality is that it's dark and Quite ugly, and you think you change that but in the end, darkness will still accompany the Galaxy."

Finishing calibrating the weapon he stands back up pushing off the tree "Playing with Thraxis's mind is like poking a rancor in a cage with a stick."

As the man spoke to him about just what it was he did... a knot began forming in the back of his throat. The anger. It had lain dormant for a while now but as the memories came rushing back in he could feel his insides tightening. The things he'd done, what he'd become. If time was any indication, if James didn't slow down he would end up like Denn, his soul slowly withering away till there was nothing left but vengeance. It was a kindness really, he supposed. He looked at the ground, retrieving a cigar from his inner pocket, flicking a small matchbook open. He looked up before striking the match.

"James." He struck the match, the flare of it casting shadows across his face. "I'm the man you're looking for."

With a small puff of smoke, his cigar coming alight. His eyes burned with an intense rage, slowly boiling beneath the surface. The man's short explanation awakening something he'd thought gone till now. Denn had buried it but time and time again it rose to the surface... this time he wasn't sure he would come back from this. There was a point of no return... and there was no way to know if you'd crossed it till it was too late.

[James Justice]

James broke out in a satisfied smile, pushing the memories back down again. He didn't need to dwell on it. And besides, Kay didn't need to see him that way. He offered his hand to Denn to shake and seal the deal. Besides, it felt good to not have to go to hell alone. To have someone to go down with him instead of having to go down it alone.

"We should go," he said at last, "We dun't want to keep me sis waiting."

"Yeah, its not that safe here, either," Lieghlah added.

James hated the way his life was going, but he gave his wife a shinning smile. Finding her now, it felt like he had found a light in the dark night, a lighthouse to guide him in the dark of this night. The spacer pulled his hoversled along with its gear out into the open light. The air felt fresh, clear, almost pretty. It was hard to believe they were actually on a horror planet that gods know how many people had died horrible deaths on. James stopped in his tracks. "If--we have this shipyard here..... Where be the people--or at least--the bodies?"

One of the nearby buildings clattered with a sound, and suddenly from the building stumbled bodies, dead rotting bodies animated by the blackwing virus.

"Son of a bith," James grumble drawing his blaster. He was so over this scene it was unreal. He fired a pair of shots as the total of ten bodies clambored into the open, "Kay! Sis, its time to get a move on! Double time!"

[Lumi Snow]

Lumi shook her head gravely, "Oh no, no no no no, Mr Orazio, not at all," her face shown with utmost sincerity. "I know there is dakness in this world. I've seen--" she wanted to tell him she had seen into the deepest darkness of minds. She wanted to tell him she was telepathic and blind and that was the only way she could "see." But she didn't.

"--A lot of bad things," she said at last. "But, I don't think people are bad. I think they are scared, hurting, and wanting to find a way out, a way t be happy. That is all."

Her ears pricked as Thraxis screamed something about lies, deceit, and brokeback mountain. She shuttered. Eeeewwwww. She looked to Orazio, "Is--is he talking about you?" After all, she was--well not equipped for Brokeback Mountain.

She turned to the direction she heard him shouting from, "Mister Thraxis, sir? I believe you must be confused. I--I-- am here to rescue you. I don't know if the heat is getting to you, sir?"

She started walking to where the voice came from. Hopefully they could minimize this damage, before someone got hurt.

[Progflaw99]

Denn took James' hand, firmly shaking it as his dark eyes gazed seemingly into the very depths of James' soul. He knew what lurked there all too well. Breaking off their handshake, he nodded. They did need to get a move on, they'd gotten what they'd come for, at least for the most part. He had a few things he wanted to investigate... the bulk of the spaceport had been empty, as if the people had suddenly disappeared. He hadn't even seen remains, bodies, bones, nothing.Denn's eyes narrowed as the apparition of Jame's wife spoke in reply. Not safe. He'd guessed that from the wildlife but there was something else there, something in her voice that sent chills down his spine. James, almost as if he'd read his mind gave voice to his reservations.

"If--we have this shipyard here..... Where be the people--or at least--the bodies?"

His eyes snapped to the opening, a sharp sound echoing in the silence of the stale air. Were those... people? No.. no these were something far more sinister, their bodies were in various states of decay, flesh hanging from the corpses' animated frames. At first it was a shuffle, then steps as the abominations began to move towards the small trio. Denn couldn't believe what he was seeing... the dead... alive. Almost hesitantly he drew the long barreled DE-10 Heavy blaster from the leather holster on his thigh, bringing the wide barrel to bear down on the group. James had fired twice towards the group and the distinct blue bolts of Denn's blaster followed closely, one of the animated corpses knocked to the ground as the bolt hit it squarely in what used to be it's skull. With a sizzling hiss it dropped like a sack of vegetables.

Snarling, Denn stuffed the coupling he'd been carrying into his satchel and shouldered it, firing a few more bolts in the direction of the walking dead. Now he began to see more of the bodies, making their way out of other various doorways and hangar doors. If they didn't get out of here soon.. they might be in more trouble than they were prepared for.

"On your left!" Denn shouted.

A walking corpse had appeared from around the corner of a ship on James' left. Denn had fired a blaster bolt rapidly, hoping he wasn't too late to save the man. There was an evil here... a darkness even Denn didn't know or understand the depth of. He only hoped he had fired in time, the hunger in the creature's eyes was plain as day.

[Thraxis]

He paused for a few moments, regaining his composure, looking with a disgusted look as he glared at her and the companions of which she had called in. He was outnumbered at first, but it now seemed like Tiali was here to help him. Or just apart of her ever growing scheme. His mind ran with a flurry of ideas, he could straight up go for the kill, but that would be a bad decision. He had no idea their capabilities and would have to learn what they had slithering up their sleeves. No, for now he must wait. Await his chance to strike.

"Yes... you must be right.... just the..." he paused for a second, his tongue batting along his lips as his voice began to snarl, "Heat..." as he regained his composure he put his helmet back on, before proceeding to his container, taking his time as he watched them the whole time, whether directly or from the side he watched and waited for them to strike. Though it seemed nothing of the sort unfolded. As he approached the container he smashed the doors close, locking it back up before proceeding to get back to work, dragging the container with a little more then no progress and a little less then any progress.

[Tiali Orazio]

Tiali smiles almost luaghing at lumi after her sincere response "Alright doc." He says shrugging his shoulders. It was that moment when Thraxis went on his hissy fit, almost like he was about to try and kill one of us out of the blue. Tiali stood there quitely in confusion about the situation raising his hand to his head he rubs the top of his helmet. But to Tiali's surprised lumi was able to calm him down, maybe she is better then Tiali thought. But then again not the weirdest thing from Thraxis, memory's of witnessing torture sessions flash through Tiali's mind shrugging it off he looks back to the doc "I don't know what or who he was talking about then, but it's over now."

He hesitantly makes his way over to the crate "I assume you would like a hand Thraxis?" He almost immediately regrets even thinking about helping him move his garbage collection.

Kicking the dirt underneath him as he approaches the crate he quickly looks it over. Releasing a simi anoyed sigh, "I'll push... I guess" he places his hands on to the back,shoulder width apart digging his gloved fingers into the solid metal/ material with a grunt he pushes forward trying to help him out, even if it's pointless the greenskins are paying him for it "Where we going anyway Thraxis?" Gritting his teeth together He grunts again trying to push a little harder, making his feet tare and slide on the plants under his feet.

Looking over to the body guard he raises his voice to get his attention "Come on big fella help us out!"

[Kay-Larr]

It was the doors opening and bodies spilling out that caught Kay's attention first, just as she was relaxing a little with her tea. Then came the shout and blaster fire from [member="James Justice"] . She got to her feet, tossing the rest of her tea aside before stuffing the cup and her supplies back into her satchel. [member="Denn Ralto"] fired his weapon soon after, body parts from long dead victims flying in their wake. How was this possible??

Kay climbed up onto the X-Wing. She needed the higher vantage point as she brought out her blaster, took it off of stun, and started opening fire on those animated corpses that were getting too close. She didn't feel bad if she killed them, for they were already dead, no different than a mindless drone.

How many were there? More than her small blaster could handle, that was for sure. Already it was beginning to overheat. "James!! Denn!! How do we get out of here?!" Where was backup when they needed it?
