(INVITE ONLY!) The Giant Green Space Pastry Part I

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

'Why, why why why! Why Savarok!' is all I could think at this point, I just came from Voss, where death and destruction followed me everywhere. We were currently heading for my home planet, Kiffu, to stop and refuel. I had recently picked up a HK series droid, [member="HK-42"], who assisted in helping me slay the Vong, 'Meatbags'.

"Prepare to jump out of hyperspace, hopefully not on fire like the last few times." The stars come back into view, and the brilliance of Kiffu was unearthed as the storm clouds were swirling. "The planets are close, its the season of storms right now, hold on to your shiny metal highny." Maybe I could find answers here, my parents were Jedi, we should be able to find answers. And with that we enter the atmosphere. The craft ducks and rolls as lightnings tries to strike the Luna. We land safely at a spaceport. "We will have to stay here for the night, at least until the storm dies down."

(This is a story thread for me and my new crewmate, HK-42, feel free to join if you will.)

 

[HK-42]

HK-42 barely cared for the rocky ride, staying stable enough to stay upright.He was picked up on Voss by [member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"], and taken in as a crewmember after his Last Master died

​Query: Why should I when I am able to stay upright anyway?

Once the ship landed in the spaceport, he walk to the co-pilot seat, and looks to his Master, and keeps a standard "droid stare".

Statement: Master, I understand you are a Jedi, but your piloting skills are wonderful.

Query: Where are we going to find this Sith Lord Meatbag, Master?

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"Not here, but for now we need to find my parents, and probably some place to refuel. Speaking of witch C7 (my astromech droid I keep on hand), check the system and see how much damage was done." I get up from the cockpit and head downstairs. "I was suppose to see my master back at Voss, he is captured at this moment, and I will make sure to it that he is un-captured." I walk over to a crate and open it, pulling out a weapon, "You don't happen to know how a T-7 Ion Disruptor works right?"

[member="HK-42"]

 

[HK-42]

Statement: Possibly Master, but it is recommended to keep that weapon for your hands only.

Statement: We wouldn't want any "mis-fires" would we, Master?

He'd rise from the seat and follows his Master, grabbing his Aratech Sniper Rifle on the way out of the cockpit.[member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"]

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"Yeah, back during the age of the Empire, these things were banned. And still are, for what they can do to living beings as well as droids and vehicles. Its basically a death cannon is what I am saying." I walk over towards the ramp, "We need to get moving, storm or no storm." I drape my protective armorweave scarf over my neck. I take off my glasses and put on my helmet. My respirator kicks in, "Ok, we should be safe, C7 watch the ship." I open the ramp, "[member="HK-42"] come on." I walk out of the shuttle, lightning strikes the horizon.

Somewhere else on Kiffu, "He is here, Davic I sense it. He is home again."

 

[HK-42]

He followed [member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"] all the way out, looking at C7 before he leaves the ship, following his Master to the planet's surface to find his Master's parents.

Query: Master, do your parents really want to meet an HK unit?

Statement: besides, I might have a random old contract for them that requires their extermination.

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"My mother and father were both Jedi healers. If they had a bounty on their heads someone would have took it already." I walk out towards the street, "Follow me." I run towards the outer city, dodging the few people brave enough to go outside. I stop once we near an old house on the edge of a river, "Here."

[member="HK-42"]

 

[HK-42]

Insulting Query: This scrapyard of a shack...is where your "Parents" live?

Insulting ​Disappointment: and here I thought they were at least in a HOME.

HK-42 followed [member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"] all the way to a small hut on the side of a river; A Disappointment in his book was one hell of an understatement for him. He didn't know why he had to go with him, when he could chat it up with C7, but it didn't matter.

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"Hey, at least they live in a house. Its actually really nice inside." I get to the door when suddenly it opens, my mom standing there, "You! Inside! Now! And bring your little friend as well." "But mom!" She replies, "No butts here except yours in the house." She stops to stare at [member="HK-42"], "An HK series droid, I used to own one. Come in." I walk inside and the full scope of the house comes into view, with lavish items everywhere. Including a brand-new holotable. "Wow, when did you get this?" She stares at me and says, "Our neighbors bought it for us because you left, again."

 

[HK-42]

HK-42 gave the best laugh he can, using the recording of a Hutt's laugh as his Master,[member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"], is snapped at by his mother. He stares right back at his mother and nods his head.

Greeting: Hello Female Meatbag, I am HK-42, a prototype HK unit that has been outdated long before the Mandalorian Wars.

Observation: you mentioned another HK unit, may I asked what happened to it?

He entered the hut, and sat at the holotable, still holding on to his Rifle, and waited if anyone wanted to play him on the table.

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"Oh he was deactivated after a battle, now he is just sits there back at the old Jedi temple on Voss." Just then my father, Davic Drevur, walks in through the kitchen door, "Matthew! What have you been doing lately? Other than leaving your family for about four times now." My dad says sarcastically as he hugs me. "Ok mom, dad, we are here to talk about Saverok Barcu, my old master." They all stop talking.

[member="HK-42"]

 

[HK-42]

Statement: what an interesting Coincidence.

Observation: I was on Voss, before I was picked up by my Master.

Puzzling Observation: I only recall one other HK droid, made with a Gold-like-Alloy.

Query: Is that the HK droid you mentioned,Female Meatbag?

He watched [member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"] get hugged by his father, as he turns on the Holo-table, and starts to play against the A.I of the table, to see if it was smarter than he was.

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"HK-57, yes that was him." She turns to me, "What about Saverok, he was your master. And a good friend of ours." I continue to talk,""He was captured by the Sith Lord Dredge during the attack on Voss. We need to know if there is any way we could get him back. And if there is any way we could borrow a couple thousand credits?" "COUPLE THOUSAND?!?!?! Honey, we are rich, but we just don't hand out money like it grows on trees!" Davic searches his pocket, "Here, this should be enough to pay the food, water, oxygen, and power bill." He says as he hands me a couple thousand credits, "Davic! I just told him no!" "He is eighteen dear, he is fine."

[member="HK-42"]

 

[HK-42]

Query: Master, once we leave, can we go back to pick up HK-57?

Statement: It'd be nice to talk to another HK unit, besides C7.

He'd quickly beat the Holotable A.I, and watches as [member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"]'s father hands him a few thousand credits. He'd look at his Master's mother barking at both his Master, and his Master's father, as he shakes his head and stares at her.

Observation: Oh Female Meatbag, once the money's in my Master's hands, there's no point in trying to take it back.

He'd get up, his Aratech Sniper rifle in hand, expecting her to try and take the money back, but doesn't raise his weapon until she tries.

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"Fine, keep the money. But I expect it paid back young man!" My mom tells me. I reply to her, "Fine, ill get it back to you in about, a few months hopefully." I walk around the room. "How is Kavi by the way?" "She is fine, she likes a room to herself as well sense your sister left." I am shocked, "Kafti left!" "Yes, she left to become a Jedi a few weeks ago." "Ok well, thanks for the help, I will see you soon hopefully." I hug my parents, "HK lets go. We need to 'fix' some things." I walk outside with [member="HK-42"], "And by 'fix' I mean take some bounties and pirate some ships."

 

[HK-42]

Statement: you have yet to answer my question,Master.

Request: can we go back to pick up HK57 from Voss, Master?

Statement: It would be fun to talk to someone who isn't a bucket of bolts, Master.

He'd follow his Master,[member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"], out of the house, not caring about his plans to find pirates and shoot them down. He actually wanted this for once, and didn't care if he had to steal the ship himself to pick up HK-57.

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

"HK-57... Maybe, maybe... We will go tonight back to Voss." I run towards my ship, dodging more pedestrians, as we near the ship the ramp opens, and we walk inside. "C7, how did the scan go?" He responds with several beeps and boops, "Good. We need to head back to Voss. *YAWN* But I need some rest after the last three days." I open the door to my room, "Goodnight everyone." I close the door and plop on my bed, "*snore*" [member="HK-42"]

 

[HK-42]

He'd nod his head in happiness, as his Master immediately crashes and falls asleep. HK-42 looked away from[member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"], to look at C7, and plays the recording of a Hutt chuckling.

Statement: I can't wait for the other HK unit in here

Observation: better than having just you to talk to, Bucket o' bolts.

Query: do you think you can automatically fly the ship to Voss right now?

 

[Matthew(Rogue)Drevur]

C7 responds in several beeps and boops, translation: "Yes I can." C7 scoots over toward what looks like a cargo elevator that would be on a forklift. C7 activates it and it climbs up toward the second floor. He rolls around and enters the cockpit. He then begins to pilot the ship. C7 says several beeps and boops, translation: "I haven't flown in a while sense Master Matthew is around. Hold on." C7 starts up the hyperdrive, the stars blur, space bends against its will, and we speed off to Voss once more. [member="HK-42"]

 

[HK-42]

He'd laugh using a recording of a human male laugh, as he jumps up and down, watching the ship go into hyperspace towards Voss.

Exclamation: you are one clever droid, C7!

Apology: I apologize for calling you a Bucket of Bolts, especially since you're doing this for me, C7

Query: now, the real question is...how to explain this to our Master?

He was truly surprised the ships sudden movements didn't wake up [member="Matthew (Rogue) Drevur"], but he didn't care. They were going back to Voss to pick up HK-57, and add yet another droid to the crew list.
