Ithorian Scoundrel, Level 1


Vitality: 13 / 13


I hope Jeela can handle the rest of those troopers. Hate leaving her in that situation, but if we don't get access to a ship we are all going to be in a lot of trouble when more troopers come poring in to see what happened to the last group.

Vou runs for the ship and then starts fiddling with the access panel trying to get the door to the ship open.

@Draidden Jeela is only up against 3 troopers. Also she is something like 200 or more feet away down a kind of terminal tunnel so firing from your position is a guaranteed miss.

 

OOC

Oh, that does complicate things a bit. Will go edit my post. I guess just ignore the roll or turn it into a roll to gain access to the ship.

Jeela AjikJeela ajik

Human Jedi, Level 1


Vitality: 13 / 13


Jeela had opened herself up to the force, but without enough training, she hasn't been prepared for what could come of her desire to act

Justice. The word blares in Jeela's head like a siren. Justice for the Jedi. She leaps at the remaining troopers. Justice for master Vidarr. She swings her blade. Justice by actionpain.

The Shipyard

Vou was quick with his hands, and even faster when slicing a door open. Nowhere seemed to be off-limits to him, least of all this ship. He seemed to make it look like a breeze until he touched the wrong node and got a nasty shock. His fingers went numb and he dropped his tools several times. The Trandoshan pushed his way inside the Consular-class cruiser with Prane over his shoulder.

The frigate was long but not overly roomy; Kardassk found the ceilings just a bit too close for comfort. He could stand at full height, but only just. Even simple walking required him to duck a little. The entrance to the ship was in the center, with the cockpit and quarters to the left and much of the inner workings of the ship to the right. The lizard lumbered left and found labels for "salon pods" which he knew would be perfect. Each pod was designed as a personal escape pod but with a luxurious makeover; they would often favored by diplomats. It would be a simple matter to disable the pod's ability to launch from the inside before shoving Prane in and locking the door.

As the Ithorian pressed his way into the ship he saw Kardassk's temporary prison and just further ahead he could see the cockpit. Leftover belongings from the previous owner cluttered the dashboard. Printed pictures of a couple in various idyllic scenes, a half-eaten carton of flavored noodles, a holdout pistol and extra clip. It seemed this frigate had a history, but Vou didn't have time for that. The Empire wouldn't wait... wouldn't care. After shaking his hands about for several minutes, the feeling finally came back to his fingers.

Kardassk sat in the co-pilot's chair next to the new captain who quickly sliced into the controls and bypassed the lock. Looking through the glass they two could see a fierce battle of lights playing out dead-ahead.

OOC

Vou gets the ship open and unlocked, but the Problem is he got a jolt (1 damage) and the previous owners are actually nice people.

Terminal

Blaster fire filled the air as Jeela allowed the Force to flow through her like a raw, hot arid wind. She flew through the air bringing both lightsabers down with furious motions. The stormtroopers fired as quickly as they could, catching the Jedi's limbs here or there. Hot, searing pain accompanied each clumsy maneuver or overconfident strike--but it didn't matter. The Force filled the Jedi with power, guiding her blade into her foes over and over. Jeela's movements increased in speed until she was a blur.

As the two blades found their way into the torso of the officer, another three squads of stormtroopers emerged from where the others had come previously. They ran directly toward Jeela, firing their weapons, unbeknownst of the frigate aimed directly at them just as Kardassk pointed out to Vou the controls for the weapons systems.

Jeela wasn't Jeela in that moment, instead giving herself over to the Force momentarily. She was unaware of the piles of body parts she'd left behind through needless maiming strikes. There was a distracting barrage of hot plasma aimed in her direction that kept the Force burning in her. She walked forward, possessed, knocking bolts aside with ease, though some got through her defenses. Her clothing became ripped and ragged from the close-calls and hits, even starting small fires along her cloak before they would burn out and leave smoke trails in her wake.

The Jedi began to struggle deflecting all the shots as the Imperials encroached. Vou engaged the turbo lasers, at least distracting the enemy while he recalibrated another series of shots. But by then Jeela had brutally disassembled half of the forces against her. Kardassk grasped the controls next, firing with the new trajectory and taking out a large chunk of troopers. Their bodies vaporized in heat where caught in the blast. It was over and the Force faded away from the Jedi like a hot vapor on a chilly morning. Jeela came back to her senses and ran toward the ship. Did she dare look behind her at what carnage she'd wrought? Was this the power of the Dark Side?

OOC

Jeela manages to fight off her foes but the Problem is she gives in to the Dark Side. She brutalizes the enemy and values offense over defense, taking 3 damage in the process. But since she gave in to the Dark Side, it's also considered a Critical. So you end up wiping out the entire lot! That's... a lot of dead people (like 20ish).

The Cruiser

Reaching the ship just as Vou figured out how to fire up the engines, Jeela went up the ramp and headed toward the cockpit. More stormtroopers poured onto the scene as it became apparent the team was being hunted. Blaster fire pinged harmlessly off the shields as the ship lurched upward and started to turn toward an exit trajectory.

A matter of minutes later would find the trio breaking out of the atmosphere of Bespin, four TIE-fighters in hot pursuit. But it was too late and the team too good at their job, evading shots while determining hyperjump calculations. Several shots rocked the ship as bolts hit the shields just before engaging the jump into hyperspace. The stars stretched out to infinity in the blink of an eye followed by the familiar lurch forward.

And so the team of ragtag, would-be rebels managed to escape. Or at least, most of them. K8's fate was unknown, but she was always good at being useful. She'd likely be fine and possibly seek a way off planet.

But that's a story for another time...
