En Route to Bakura System
Lash read over the information he had received from his sources inside the Chiss Ascendancy. He had been gone a long time now, but still he had not lost all of his contacts inside the CEDF. It had been a hard decision for him to leave the Chiss to fight to free them, but he would not have changed anything about what he did. The Ascendancy was free now no longer made to kneel to the former One Sith. Now the Ascendancy was what Lash had hoped it would one day be, A thriving paradise. The choices he made had conscienceless though, He and his people could never really go home. They left the ascendancy and could never hope to be welcomed back. It was not their way, not the way of the Chiss. He missed his family and the life he had but that was gone now. He and his people were exiled and no longer worthy of being Chiss.
Lash had not forgotten who he was and what the Ascendancy was. He loved his former home and would die protecting it even if it did not want him to. He and his people worked within the Known Regions to build a force that would be there when needed and protect the Chiss both in the ascendancy and without. Safeguarding the twenty eight colonies and the exiled worlds as well.
When Lash had heard the FIrst Orders call for help he had already known about the vile reptile horde now assailing the Orders worlds. Day before he had gotten word from a group of passing merchants from one of the exiled worlds that had picked up a large force of Ruuk vessels en route for the known regions. Lash had been too far away to intercept the force before it had reached its destination but had readied his force to move to assist where it was needed.
The Imperial Forge Works Fleet had left the Rothana system en route for Bakura three days ago making as few correction jumps ass possible to make it as soon as it could, Lash feared even with his haste ot would not be soon enough. He had fought the Ruuk before, many times. He had seen them swarm a world and use its people as fodder for its abiding appetite. Whole worlds enslaved to the saurian aliens had been cleansed and millions of lives lost fighting the Ruuk. Many of his men, his friends, his family lost. Lash would see to it the Ruuk would make no more headway into the Known Regions of the Ascendancy.
"Sir, we are starting the reversion counter" said a Chiss officer at the front of the command Deck. The man began punching numbers into a console then turned and looked at lash
"With your permission sir" said the blue skinned man. Lash nodded and replied
"You have the con commander." The man nodded then turned and engaged the countdown. A timer appeared on the large screen at he front of the command deck. The Jump officer announced the five minute countdown then went back to working in the console. Lash sat quietly reading through all of the data and reports he had on the situation at Bakura. He knew much had happened since their last drop out of hyperspace. His data was almost three hours old now and a war can be lost or won in less time. He wanted to help his brothers and sisters he knew had moved to Bakura to aid the Order in fighting the Ruuk. He finished reading and looked up at the timer, ninety seconds, a minute and a half and he would be in system. He closed his eyes and calmed himself as he had been trained to do then watched as the star field dissolved into a scene of sheer chaos.
