This is the droid your looking for...and ship?

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]

Machine? You speak like it's a droid and not a server based machine that you can downlaod the info off of

She said as she spoke, she was calmer now though still on the alert, she was quite surprised he hasn't of just used his troopers to try and over power her and make off with the ship...he had a little respect from her for this

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

Connections to the Imperial Database were very sophisticated...This one on the Abomination, was so complex, that it IS a droid. IDB-001, I think the Captain called it."

Any troops that were brought along either took a sniping position, or moved close by to where Lanoitan and [member="Stardust Raxis"] were sitting and chatting. An Officer from the Final Offer came to the scene following Lanoitan to monitor the situation, bringing Scout troopers with him. This group of troops were out of Lano's knowledge base of bringing to the planet.

"Troopers, take sniping positions up here, when I give the Word, kill the Twe'lik."

"Yes Sir, Right away Sir."

The Scout Troopers took up their rifles and aimed at Miss Raxis, with the intention to open fire, once given the command by their accompanying officer.

She gave a nod as she thought for a moment, sounded like the droid could be taken out...she hoped

then maybe you take the droid I'll take the ship, we both get what we want and everyone is happy, I rather not....

She could sense some people moving...seems they had just arrived, she looked in their general direction as she flipped a saber out subtly hidden as she prepared if need be to block whatever was comming, she seemed to slouch in the chair but instead was getting ready to leap

rather not have any trouble say....troops firing when they shouldn't

She said nodding her head in the general direction of the snipers and smirked

very bold

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

"I said that it had the complexity of a Droid. Its built into the ship, and can't be removed, or else the connection to the Imperial Database goes out."

He watched her look up, and get ready to block something, making a comment about "very bold" or something to those lines.

"I beg your pardon? Bold? What do you mean by that? I haven't done anything bold, except talk to you. Nothing bold there."

He'd look up in the same direction as [member="Stardust Raxis"] was, her comment making him instantly think of both Snipers, and possibly one of his own officers on the scene.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]

She moved out of Her chair as she activated both her sabers still looking at the snipers as she stepped back slowly

don't play coy, I can feel those men right above, in fact barely can see them back there with the rifles aimed at me

This was not going well at all, and stardust looked at the other men as she was on high alert

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

"Snipers? CAPTAIN DROUSA!"

"Take the Shot!"

Lanoitan lifted two of his hands, using Force Lightning to shock everyone on the bridge above, killing the Captain in question, but rendering the snipers up top unconscious. Any Sniper that accompanied the Captain on this mission would be questioned, and the Captains corpse would be left to Rot on Nar Shadda.

"Miss Raxis, I sincerely apologize for the Late Captain's actions. He apparently did not understand what I told him by 'watch the ship, and let me take care of this.', nor did he obey the order from his commanding officer at that point in time. I do wish to continuing out conversation, and truly meant no harm to yourself, Sweetheart."

He immediately covered his mouth. Dawh Crap, He didn't mean to call [member="Stardust Raxis"] 'Sweetheart'. His face started to turn red under his hand, this mistake not as intended as the sniper incident.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

The force flared out as she moved back further waiting for the shot that never came, she was still agitated by this and when he called her sweet heart of all things right at this moment

oh yeah yeah sure sweetheart your incompetent captain nearly tried to have two men shoot me and you have the nerve to call me sweetheart?!

She huffed and sat down tapping her foot as she motioned for him to do so, she was holding her anger back though in the force it would look like a dragon setting being held back from fighting

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

I'll just...Go. Men, let's move."

He'd get up, the troops running away, as the redness on his face showed his embarrassment of the situation, especially since this was an attempt to have the two discuss a team effort together, which was obviously not gonna happen, not after the sweetheart thing.

I'm going to...apologize one more time, Miss Raxis, for the...Sweetheart...thing. If you need any help with the Imperial Database thing, just contact me, on the Final Offer."

He'd start to walk away from [member="Stardust Raxis"], just deciding to forget the whole thing, and let her have it. He didn't want to make the situation worse by continuing the conversation, so he decided to just walk away from her and let her get what she wants.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]
She sighed and waved Her hand to stop him as she rubbed her eyes

no no no just stau, it's obvious this thing has something that is important and since it is technically military property I shall return it to you...bit I wanna see what's on it first

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

He'd stop, looking at her with a bit of a confused look on his face. Why did she stop him and let him have it? Was this just something to keep him here, or just to talk more? He didn't care, as it gave him more time with both the ship, and [member="Stardust Raxis"]. He'd go up to the ship, and enters it. The Abomination looked like it was still kept up like it was still in the Empire.

"Miss Raxis, this is the Abomination, a Shuttle that carried the original Death Troopers...to the Death Star. It left only an hour before its destruction, and was wiped off the records, due to it being thought as destroyed. Now...how do you start this rust bucket?"

"Excuse me Admiral, but I take offence to being called a Rust Bucket.Just call me IDB-001"

As Lanoitan spoke, he found the cockpit, and sat at the captains chair in the middle of the room, and while he tried to find where to start up the engines, the IDB system booted up, and spoke up, having both him and Stardust turn and look at a large computer in the corner of the room, installed next to the star chart.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]

She crossed Her arms as she entered and gently touched the walls, she moved towards the center as she looked over the controls...the place was in superb condition, the previous owner must've taken good care of it

Suddebly she heard a voice she turned to the computer as she approached looking over at the star chart...ot was so empty, several planets were missing...hundreds in fact, it amazed her to no end that over the years those planets were discovered with many more waiting...

it's not a droid...its a form of AI, amazing....

She ran her hand over the computer then looked back to him moving out of the way

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

"I know, the Abomination was rather upgraded on the computing power...but not the engines, so it'll take a while for them to boot up."

He'd turn back to the window, staring out of it, while [member="Stardust Raxis"] was by the computer. He thought about anything they could talk about, but didn't say anything, not wanting to offend her again.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]
She typed a few things in as She looked at the screen watching the info coming up quickly as she stopped and looked over to him

hmmm maybe I can bypass the safety on the engines and make them warm up faster these ships had those in place so you didn't cook anyone outside

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

"Nah, I'll have my mechanics do that job for me...Now, what do you wanna talk about while we wait?"

He'd turn around to face her, sitting in the captains chair, wanting to keep talking with this rather wonderful woman. He looked up at [member="Stardust Raxis"], leaning over to be at her height, and listening to anything she says.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]
She Sat down as she looked at him as she thought for a moment then gave a small smile

how about I know more about you, since you are from the time of the empire and rebel alliance your quite literally a living relic

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

"I'm not one to boast about my time with the Empire. I committed atrocities, and caused several worlds to burn. I used to be a slave on this world, before the Empire took it over, and I worked my way up the ranks. I served from Geonosis, to Endor, and All of it was under the Emperor's Name."

Lanoitan looked down at the floor as he spoke of his time in the Empire, with a tone of guilt and shame with every word he spoke. He was truly ashamed of his time in the Empire, and wanted to make it up to the Galaxy with the Regulators. He'd continue to speak about himself to [member="Stardust Raxis"], before stopping to let her react, and talk.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]

She listened as She tapped over a few things looking at the info it had, she looked back at him and saw him looking diwn, she shook her head as she spoke

eberything happens by the will of the force, even death and destruction are part of it's natural course

She said as she closes the computer down and turned towards him with a serious look

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

"Tell that to the planet Geonosis. Tell that to Alderann, to Scarf, and to the Galaxy that had to suffer under an Imperial Heel. Don't tell me that the Force willed atrocities and genocides that were committed just to test and build the Death Star."

He'd jump up, a feeling of aggression burning though him as [member="Stardust Raxis"] told him about the will of the Force, after all the death and destruction he saw through his time in the Imperial Navy. She had no idea what he saw, what he went through, what pain he saw. Not even the Force could of predicted what he saw.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Lanoitan Draugria"]

She looked over at him sensing aggression, she still sat down looking him right in the eye without fear or even a hint of aggression back, the eyes seemed to tell tales of things seen of similar caliber

I didn't say it was a good thing what the force does, it is a force that influences everyone, everything happens for a reason....be it good or not....ive practiced the force for nearly two decades, I've come to understand many many things about it....tour emotions are running high

 

[Lanoitan Draugria]

"You never saw it...You won't understand."

He sat back down, turning the chair away from [member="Stardust Raxis"]. She didn't know what he saw, and most likely never will.
