We'll Just Slytherin Unnoticed

Jsc

Disney's Princess
She was outmatched and outgunned. For not only had a Sith Lord begun his merry onslaught but behold, a Champion Acolyte also stemmed her dashing blows. [member="Darth Vornskr"] 's sheer experience mixed with the passion of [member="Udrusa"] 's Soresu most assuredly had her number.

Suspended. Like a bird on a wire. Bombarded by the Force and crippled by the weight she was forced to take a knee. Her armor smoking, flickering, and tickling the senses as she burned. Her legs back peddling with all digression. Cooking. Cutting. First from the crackling electricity and second from a number of wounds that were inflicted about her arms and legs. Even slicing off a portion of her hair and raking a crimson blade across her face. Defying. Deformed. She staggered and blocked. Thrust and was pushed. Was scarred, shocked, seared, and boiled alive. Moving as quickly as she could, Masterfully and in The Force, the woman very nearly faltered several times. Even as the crowd gasped in amazement at how much punishment this mere assassin could take. Still... She had no chance. No choice. Her oppressors danced and flicked about unopposed. Meriting out the infamous and unobstructed Death of a Thousand Cuts. A slow, unavoidable demise. Sure to be followed by capture, torture, dismemberment, and the deviant fantasies of the dark.

Enduring the impossible. The Peacock of Many Battles staggered and stumbled to one side. Bent yet unbowed. Her face obscured and torn by the smoke and sizzling sound. Her movements hidden by the flashes of light and the whole dazzling affair. Even as her toes edged over the grate panel, her one solution, it was fancifully hard for any to perceive her motive. Masked by the fated dancers, the crimson ribbons, and the fallen glass that shattered aloud. So loud was their spectacle that it stuttered all else. Yet when the fallen warrior clasped her Sith amulet in her hand, it could only been assumed to mean that her death was nigh. Her will must be broken. The end had come.

But not today, said the scarecrow to the birds. She cracked the amulet's casing and released the demon within.

In that instant a spirit was freed and darkness blanketed the field. The presence of a Sith Spirit could be felt by all so custom attuned. His rage released into the air like a blast of dark clouds. An explosion of shadowy black that grasped outward into the world. Manifested as a shear cloud of impenetrable darkness. Yet, with a hollowing scream the spirit vanished and the cloud rescinded into mere smoke. Leaving only the smell to linger about on the wind. And in that swirling moment to follow, the cloud abated and disappeared. Revealing an open dungeon grate and the pleasant absence of the would-be Professor Robertus. Nothing more than a hole in the ground.

...

"Huzzah! Hurray! They did it!"

The crowd jeered and jested with joy. Wizarding caps flew and wands waved with victory. The blue she-devil had been thwarted again and the castle was safe. The day was saved and their Headmaster avenged. For surly none could survive the hell that was the depths below.

...Or could they?

Duels made for really fething excellent distractions, especially when they were preceded by small massacres. It took very little to stoke the flames of paranoia and send a decent number of students scattering through the halls and grounds. There were hidden guides standing by to lead a few away; some of those hidden tunnels to the local town weren't too well hidden and didn't go to the actual down. Turns out the most powerfully haunted place on Crina is directly underneath a mildly possessed stealth ship with a tractor beam and a mandate to recruit. That was one avenue, anyway. Many would fail. Panic was not conducive to the efficient theft of a whole karking student body.

Except the Hufflepuffs, because screw them. We don't need to find things and we don't like plants.

Leading a parade of terrified be-robed Sithlings, Ashin ambled in the general direction of the Restricted Section. She began perusing the shelves and tossing things into bookbags. "Let's see...The Screwtape Letters, Necronomicon, oh, and they've got the sequel, Necronomicon Ex-Mortis - then we've got the Collected Writings of-" She blinked at the name of the former Jedi Grandmaster in question, shrugged, and shoved it in the bag. Could be handy. "Um, The Little Prince, what's this for -- oh, it's a thing on instinctive astrogation..." It'd been a while since she had this much fun with books.
 
Vornskr loomed over the open sewer grate left behind after [member="Karen Roberts"]' fantastic escape from what would've been certain doom, his eyes staring into the murky abyss before closing the grate with a wave of his hand and turning away to face the still assembled crowd. "Back to your duties." The gruffness of his voice demanded no hesitation in those he was addressing, and the students and teachers alike quickly scurried away to return to their classes or whatever they were doing before Karen and Vornskr had lunged from the headmaster's window after a horrible altercation with Professor G. Takei and his cohorts. Still, Karen had taken the blame for his violent outburst, and he was content to let them believe that some blue haired she-beast with dripping fangs had ruthlessly assassinated their headmaster and then proceeded to murder some of their professors and servants.

And he, the just Sith Lord who sought to apprehend and execute such a foul fiend in sight of the entire campus. He would depart Crina soon and most likely never return to such a woefully boring planetoid, but that nagging feeling of familiarity still tugged at the edges of Vornskr's senses. His mouth split into a contemplative frown and he called up two of the castle guards to flank him as he entered the macabre castle interior to continue his investigation into the odd sensation that plagued his thoughts.

Unsurprisingly he found himself going deeper into the castle, down into the haunted depths.

Ashin stuffed Atlas Shrugged in with the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis and handed off the last backpack. "That's that for the Restricted Section," she said, dusting off her hands.

"Why's it always restricted," a student sulked. "Don't they want us to get powerful?"

"They want you to crave power. Totally different. Now go find the blonde at the other end of the library ([member="Spencer Jacobs"]) and tell her there's an Artifact of Unspeakable Deadliness hidden behind a ton of self-satisfied clever traps."

"...how'd you know about that?"

"I know what I'm about, son. This kind of place always has one of those."

As the students scurried off for pickup by [member="Michael Sardun"], Ashin bared her teeth and headed off to find [member="Darth Vornskr"]. Along the way, she earned ten volts from Terentatek House for discarding her pointy hat.

[SIZE=10.6667px]So this is how it felt to be the only sane man.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.6667px]The people here seemed… insane. With their increasingly erratic names, the way they seemed to be taking themselves so seriously while everything they were doing was so- it felt like being in a B-rated holo movie that was spoofing something. Sardun's signature was sadly right at home here with the darksiders, so he didn't stand out in that capacity.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.6667px]Though his less mystical attire might be a different story altogether. Leaning against the transport they came in Michael had a good vantage point on… [/SIZE][SIZE=10.6667px]what the feth[/SIZE][SIZE=10.6667px].[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.6667px]First the window exploded - out came a blue-haired woman, followed by an ominous Sith Lord vaulting after her.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.6667px]Situation just got complicated.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.6667px]His hand moved to the earpiece, tapping a button right at the time the apprentices sent by Varanin came into view. He gestured, beckoning them to come, instead of gawking at the fight like a bunch of cows.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.6667px]“Got a problem, Vagrant. Zambrano is here. I can get the acolytes in the shuttle, then circle around to join you or stay here and protect them. Your call.”[/SIZE]

Still walking, Ashin spoke into the little comlink woven into the collar of her formal robes. "Collecting them will take a while; they're scattering. Make sure they and their cargo get picked up. Estimate one in four will turn on you; knock out or kill at your discretion. Vagrant out."
