UNKNOWN REGIONS:
A mercenary infiltration team has snuck aboard a starship known as King Annd's Vengeance
"Bloody hell, you gorram heathens! Can't you fix a damn holoscreen? You're a bunch of worthless shebs, I swear!" A voice yelled over the intercom, perhaps unaware of that fact, the speaker's anger directed at the person who was with them. Their voice came out in an angry drawl, perfectly fitting of a pirate captain. They sounded more masculine than feminine, but it was hard to tell over the crackling, low quality of the intercom. Regardless, it was painfully obvious that the speaker was very mad. "How am I supposed to watch my favorite show, you moron?!? Do you think I can just wave my frakking hand and suddenly pretty pictures will show up on the screen, huh? Do you? By the Gods, you're a fe-... Wait, is the intercom on?... Turn that chite off!"
The speakers cut off without warning, leaving the cargo hold of the vessel eerily quiet. A few moments later, however, faint shuffling could be heard. Then the sound of crate lids popping filled the room. But only for a second. As quietly as they could, a dozen or so men exited their containers, moving to retrieve weapons from other boxes. Each man had a serious look on his face. They knew what they were here to do- kill the Pirate Captain, capture the ship, take it back to the Mid Rim and collect the bounty. And they knew the reputation of the man they were after. He was a notorious scoundrel, the kind of person who would sell his own wife into slavery for a handful of credits. Rumors made it sound like he had done that.
But the men didn't know that their target was already dead. Nor did they know he had been replaced by a very, very bored Shi'ido who just wanted to cause some chaos...
