REQUESTING WRAITH SQUAD MISSION DATA...
LOADING...


Frozen sweat and dried blood covered the decaying corpse of the mercenary Demortis.  He was positioned in a way quite unlike the way he died, in a more dignified position than the kneeling, groveling, pathetic animal he looked like when she killed him.  Indeed, one could almost pity him by the way he lay- helpless on his back.  But Raasaa knew how to change that, how to remind everyone of the monster that he really was, the monster that never took his eyes off the world, his gluttonous prize. 

He would never look away from the world this time, that's for certain.  His eyeballs protruded from the sockets that held them, for without eyelids to contain them they bulged out like a fish might.  Raasaa chuckled a soft, deadly laugh- playing with her new sniper scope covers.  Upon first inspection one might assume that they were white scope covers, some kind of dirtied white plastic or other.  But if one was to hold them, they would drop it instantly in realisation of what they were.  Stretched skin over wire rims, the eyelids of Demortis, formed the covers to her scope- the eyelashes still protruding from the edges of them.  It was her ultimate revenge, or so she thought.

She left the room, and closed the door behind her.  The biodome had been evacuated for the past week, she hadn't been able to come near the dome for a week due to the Galactic takeover.  Now she figured that she would never have to come near the place again, she'd let the corpse rot, she'd let revenge sink in.

But things didn't work out the way she thought they would.  Rounding a corner in the room she was suddenly approached by several armed guards, some of them Arkanian- all of them Mercenaries.  She wasn't quick enough to evade them, and was instantly suppressed.  They bound her, drugged her, and carried her away.

When she came around she was in a large, dark room (which she later found out was near the base of the city center dome).  She was sitting at a long table, and four walls- covered in blaster and melee weapons.  At the opposite end of the room she saw a dark shape, one that she concluded was made by a humanoid species.  When he turned around, she knew it for certain.  Behind her there were two guards standing by the door.

"I must apologize for the harsh handling that you might have encountered."  the man said.  He was a young Arkanian, possibly one of the Mercenaries who took part in the defense of the planet during the Imperial take-over.  "But the truth is, I wasn't sure if you would come willingly."

"Well I'm here." Raasaa said.  "Now- who the hell are you?"

"My name is Demortis." he said.  "And I am the leader of the rebellion against the Vast Empire on the planet Arkania."

"I'm sorry." said Raasaa, half dazed.  "What did you say you're name was?"

"Demortis." the Arkanian replied.  "I was the leader of the military resistance during the Imperial takeover."

"You're not Demortis." Raasaa said.  "I killed him, I have proof, I could show you the body..."

"Enough." he said.  He motioned for the guards to leave. 

"The man you killed, my predecessor- he has become much more than anyone could have imagined.  His heroism..."

"He was a murderer!" Raasaa interrupted.

"His heroism," said the unflinching Arkanian, "has immortalized his actions forever.  The name Demortis doesn't belong to just him now, it's an idea- it has become our way of life."

"I don't understand." Raasaa said.

"At the dawn of known civilization," Demortis began, "The planets were under the threat of a similar power like the Imperial Empires.  On one of these planets, a group of clans came together under a leader who was known to all as Mandalore.  Mandalore brought together the clans and fought off the oppression, and his people were called the Mandalorians.  For thousands of years the Mandalorians served the one called Mandalore.  But it was not Mandalore the First that they served- it was a successor, one who continued the tradition.  It is this tradition that Demortis has started, he has become the new Mandalore, he has birthed the great people known as the Demarians."

It was fortunate for Raasaa that she could not speak out of her rage.  As long as there was a Demortis she would always be second best, she would always be the student and never the teacher.  She could never be free...

"I wanted to thank you for what you did, Raasaa.  Demortis the First was weaker than I am, he could no longer be expected to lead our people.  It is good that you killed him.  But I brought you here today to ask if you could help me lead our people to victory, to throw off the mantle of suppression that the Vast Empire has covered us with.  To bring freedom to our planet, Demaria."

Raasaa almost gagged when she heard her beloved Arkania's new name.  It was clear that this tyrant was crazy, and that he needed to be killed.  It was also clear that to do so would take much planning and perhaps even a trip to see her old friends in Wraith Squad...

"I would be honored to serve the Demarian people." Raasaa lied.

"Excellent." Demortis said.  "We are most pleased to hear it."

Ron had to look in the mirror closely to see a difference in his new prosthetic ear.  Even though he could not hear out of it, the medic who treated him had done a fantastic job in replacing the mutilated ear with a clean, prosthetic one.  In order to make him hear on both sides of his head, they placed a tiny microphone in the fake one, so that as long as Ron wore a receiver in his good ear he could hear out of both sides through the one.  It was an archaic way to go about it, but it was only temporary until he could return to Tadath and undergo major surgery to replace the damaged organs in his ear canal with mechanical, working ones.

He had only just finished inspecting the temp job when he was notified via personal datapad with the instructions for a briefing with his Platoon Commander Tanus.  Ron sighed as he left the room.  He really had no idea of the mission that he would hear of, or of the Arkanian sniper that he would encounter as soon as he walked into the Commander's room.  Ron could never guess that he would be assigned to team up with his former enemy against the newly formed Demarians under their psychotic leader called Demortis- so naturally it all came as quite a shock to him when he did.

OOC:
My apologies for taking so long.  Simply put, school can be a bitch.  We are teaming up with Raasaa again (yay) to take down the rising anti VE gang that is quickly rising on the planet's surface in the locality of Kanti.  Because of what our last mission we should all know the city fairly well, save for our new guys (you'll just have to learn as you go).  We're already on the planet (and we're already near Kanti) so it's pretty much just grab the gear and go.  Personal gear is allowed, so knock yourselves out. 

I would like to see all of you using the OOC box at the end of your post to let everyone know how your post lends support to the general plot.  As a rule, you MUST continue the post above you in some way.  I don't want any posts to stick out like a sore thumb.  You may also use the box to offer suggestions for where you'd like to see the plot go.

For your benefit:

Anival chewed on a ration bar, they hadn't stopped moving, even after they had taken control of the city it had taken work to quench small pockets of resistance that had sprung around the city, most of them harmless looters, looking to take what they could before order was restored. Wraith had the uncomfortable job of tracking and even killing some of the more dangerous ones. They had been backed up by another regiment of troopers, two squad that had accompanied them, were dead, two troopers in particular Anival had shot himself, they had become cumbersome and a danger for the missions success. Court Martial was unlikely, they could of simply been cought in the cross fire.

Anival stopped chewing his ration bar as Zeshuan nudged him. Ron was walking with two other figures, one was armored, probably an addition, Anival was sick on green recruits either they were killed in the first mission or they survived and earned the Stormtrooper title. The other figure was someone Anival knew too well, the same person that had shot Rons ear off. Anival thought about lifting  his weapon, but didn't they were surrounded by stormtroopers, all of which were armed and highly trained.

At a closer look the new trooper didn't look so new, he was older than Anival himself, probably in his early to mid thirties, brown hair, and looked like a strong enough wind could blow him offer. He looked more like a nerf herder than an soldier, but he was going to say anything.

“Ron?” Anival said with a nod of acknowledgment and then gave him a questioning glance as to the new trooper.

“This is Zak, welcome him, he is the new member of wraith.”

“And why is she here?” Anival heard from one of the other troopers.

“She.” said Ron with a hint of a smile “is our mission. I will explain everything. As you know, while I was out, you have been busy exterminating small pockets of resistance.” Ron looked at the faces in Wraith and looked puzzled but he continued. “Well Raasaa here tells us of a far more dangerous group. Our mission, exterminate them as well. We MUST control EVERY aspect of Arkania, we can't let any group give the citizens false ideas, that they can resist imperial rule.”

Anival nodded.

“Now, where are Alex, Helena, and Joamer?”

“Alex, was picked up by a larty look alike, and taken to, Raiders, or Blackjack, not sure, or not that I care, as for Helena and Joamer, we lost them in a raid downtown approximately twelve standard hours ago, no bodies found, so we are assuming they deserted.” Anival hesitated, “.....we have standing orders to kill them on site.” Anival finished.

“Alright. Then lets get going, Raasaa, will you lead.” Ron made it an order not a statement, the Arkanian scowled but listend.”

“Alright wraiths you heard the man were moving out! Get in formation!”

The squad headed towards the city, tired from their previous mission and, Anival was sure, mad that they had only gotten a few hours of sleep. Anival distributed some pills he had received from one of the medics, it would keep them alert for the mission.

OOC:
Alright we have started into the city, I incorporated Zak (Nightowl) into the story, I explained why we have three troopers missing. So..POST OUR I'll Make ye suffer!

Zak brought up the rear of the squad.  He could feel his new squad members’ eyes upon him but he didn’t care.  He was the new guy and he figured that it would take some time for them to get used to him being part of the squad.  He preferred being at the back anyway, he didn’t trust them, then again he never trusted anyone and in the business of smuggling it had kept him alive and he wanted to keep it that way.

Having never been to Arkania before, Zak took some luxury in looking around at the area.  The terrain was quite beautiful, when the squad started moving into the city his eyes moved from the scenery to every individual that happened to come across their path.  Anyone of them could be a potential threat and he rested the palm of his hand on his blaster that he had strapped to his hip.  Should the need arise, he knew that the blaster would be in his hand in mere seconds and the threat would be dead.

“Hi” a voice suddenly said.

Zak’s concentration was interrupted as one of the squad members approached him.  Zak eyed him curiously before nodding an acknowledgement.

“Name’s Zeshaun and you’re Nightowl?” spoke the trooper, almost questioning the name.

Zak could hear the question in the way he said it.  He had come across this before in his past and now when someone queried the name he now had come up with a standard response.

“Yeah, names Zak Nightowl, never knew my parents, so the shelter that I was raised in simply called me Zak.  So when I was old enough I decided to give myself the name of Nightowl because I sleep so little” said Zak.

Zeshaun looked at him curiously before asking “how come you sleep so little?”

Zak looked at him as if he had just been asked the most obvious question in the galaxy before replying simply “sleeping tends to get you killed”.

“Well, nice to have you in the squad” replied Zeshaun before moving back into the main throng of the squad.

Zak watched him rejoin the main throng of the squad before returning his attention to the various nameless faces of the people walking by and to the buildings, always alert and ready.

I’m ready for anything thought Zak to himself, although only time would tell if he truly was or not.

OOC:
First post so I hope it's ok.  Not sure where the story is going so hopefully what I've written is ok, just really followed on from Anival in moving us into the city

Zeshaun had taken a liking to the new recruit, he liked the attitude more than anything else, and it seemed that he was going to survive the first mission. They had finally been able to get their own personal equipment sent down to their make shift base so Zeshaun now had all his own personal weapons. He always felt standard and boring when he carried the issued E-11 rifles and usually chose not to even carry them on his body. They had been spending most of the their time on the planet patrolling the city, which Zeshaun didn’t mind since that meant he got to observe more of the city, and admire the great architecture and beauty that went into building the city. The fighting had scarred the landscape but they started to rebuild and things were looking better.

When Ron said that they had to work with the same assassin that had recently tried to kill Ron, Zeshaun wasn’t so excited about the idea. But it seemed that this new rising coup was different from the other small ones that the Wraiths had to go crush, they seemed more organized, and even worse, and they had a god, a central figure that they looked up to. You could never underestimate a cause with a mission. On top of that, they had lost three troopers, he had grown to like Rogueboy, one of the missing and presumed dead troopers.  The whole squad was tired and quiet due to the bad news and the pressure of the new mission but they followed their Arkanian “friend” and popped one of Anival’s pills so that he could stay alert.

They had gained a few new recruits other than Nightowl, Zerohito had also come from the academy, and since they were running low on squad members a few others were sent to back them up. One of these replacements was an interesting character named Ignacio. Zeshaun had spoken with him for a bit before hand when they had a bit of free time and found out that he liked to be called “Iggy” because that’s what his family called him. He seemed to be the kind of soldier that was all muscle and no brain, but the fact that he was an excellent heavy weapons specialist meant that there had to be at least a little bit of smarts in him.

“So Iggy is it?” Zeshaun struck up a conversation with him as they followed Raasaa.

He nodded, “You’re a trando right?” he asked, questioning Zeshaun’s species type.

Zeshaun was surprised by that question but nodded.

“I knew it, I have seen a few when I travel with my father, I like your species as a whole.”

Zeshaun thought for a moment and decided to take that as a compliment. He also noticed a slight accent in Iggy’s voice, he couldn’t really tell where the accent was from but he didn’t really care. He was more taken aback by how easily Iggy was able to carry the “Surf n’ Turf” turret. That was usually a mounted weapon, very strong and extremely dangerous. Zeshaun stuck by Iggy for the whole walk, for some reason they hadn’t been able to secure a vehicle of some kind which would have made the trip much quicker. But the energy pill was kicking in and he didn’t feel as tired anymore. He felt a nudge on his shoulder and looked to his right.

“Who is that hot lady leading the group.” Iggy asked under his breath.

“You don’t want to deal with her.” Zeshaun warned shaking his head. “She tried to kill all of us not too long ago.”

“Dangerous and sexy.” Iggy let the words linger for a minute and then smiled. “I like it.”

Iggy began making his way toward the front and left Zeshaun by himself near the back. Zeshaun just shook his head and hoped that Iggy didn’t get into any trouble. They had been walking a while now and they reached a more torn down area of the city, reconstruction had not yet begun and the buildings were dark.  Zeshaun had a feeling that they were close to arriving to their destination and he was right. Raasaa stopped and the whole squad came to a standstill. They stood in the middle of the empty street, Zeshaun nervously fingered the trigger on his rifle.

“What are we waiting for?” Jamasis asked.

Raasaa quieted him with her hand and then listened intently. “They are here, we are being watched, we should get to cover before they decide we are dangerous.”

“I don’t like the sound of that.” Anival said, rolling his eyes.

The squad began walking again, at a brisker pace than before, looking for a building that had not been completely destroyed yet so that they could have a safe place to formulate a plan.

Zak could see some of the squad members talking to Raasaa.  He had to admit that she was strikingly beautiful but he also sensed danger from her as well.  Keeping her in his sight was something he had decided would be a wise course of action.  Now that he seen her quieting the squad and her looks of concern caused Zak to become uneasy.

He glanced around at the buildings.  He couldn’t see any form of danger yet he could sense it.  He noticed that the people that had once been walking through the streets had suddenly disappeared.  Apart from the wind blowing through the street the place was quiet, too quiet.  Zak wanted to run, to run now before things went bad but he had a job to do and do it he would.  He grabbed his blaster from his belt and brought it out.  He knew that it was only a matter of time before he had to use it.

“Let’s move people” barked Ron as he waved a hand towards one of the buildings.

The squad could hear the urgency in their squad leader’s voice.  They moved instantly but their movements weren’t quick enough.  A shattering sound pierced the quietness as one of the windows erupted outwards towards the squad.  Small shards of glass flew across Zak as he shielded his eyes.

“For Demortis!” yelled a voice.

“Demortis!” chanted other voices.

Blaster fire started to rain down around as the squad as everyone sought cover.  Zak brushed aside the glass, he could feel small trickles of blood running down his cheek but he had no time to worry about minor injuries such as that.

Zak glanced around.  He spotted several of his squad mates in various covering positions but not all of them.  He was glad that he could not see any dead bodies so he assumed that everyone had survived the opening volley.  He fired several bolts towards the open windows.  He couldn’t see them so he wasn’t sure whether he had actually hit any of them or not.

A scraping sound beside Zak brought his senses to high alert as he brought his blaster round fast to bear on the noise.  His finger half depressing the trigger before acquiring the target.  He breathed a sigh of relief and immediately let go of the trigger mere seconds before depressing it fully when he realised that it was Zeshaun who had dived to his position.

“Damn it, I nearly shot you” said Zak.

“Well I’m glad to didn’t, listen I’ve got a plan and I need your help” replied Zeshaun.

“I’m listening” stated Zak.

“I’m going to crawl along the left side of the right whilst Anival takes the right.  We’ll drop in grenades into the buildings and that should take care of whoever is in there” said Zeshaun.

“Good plan, where do I come into it?” queried Zak.

“We’ll need someone to cover us” stated Zeshaun.

“Consider it done” said Zak.

Zeshaun smiled and nodded.  He waved a hand over towards Anival and together the pair began their crawl along the walls of the buildings.  When they approached a window they tossed in a grenade.  Several seconds later an explosion ripped through the building.  They started crawling to the next window.

“For Demortis!” screamed a voice.

Zak almost cringed at the voice as it almost sounded inhuman.  He glanced around the street to discover it’s source.  Suddenly a figure emerged from one of the buildings that Anival had tossed a grenade into.  The building was on fire and the figure that emerged from the building was on fire too.

Zak wondered how the man was still standing let alone walked.  The pain that he must be suffering must be intolerable.  Yet the man forced himself to move screaming the name ‘Demortis’.  Zak could not believe what he was seeing.  He had heard about fanatics before but never like this, never to this degree of commitment.  Zak suddenly realised that the man was carrying a weapon and was targeting Anival.  Zak wasted no time in sending a volley of blaster bolts, putting the man out of his misery.

“I think that’s all of them” called out Zeshaun as the last of the building was destroyed.

“Good work people” called out Ron as he emerged from behind one of the buildings.

Raasaa emerged and looked around at the devastation.  Zak got the impression that she wasn’t pleased at the excessive force and destruction the squad had managed to accomplish.  He also pondered where she had disappeared to when the fighting had began.

The rest of the squad soon gathered together and Zak was happy that no-one had suffered any injuries.  The medic, Alajo was beside Zak tending to the minor cuts he had received when the windows had shattered.

“Well, looks like we did it” stated Zerohito triumphantly.

“Hardly” said Raasaa, “that was only the beginning”.

The comment sent a chill down Zak’s spine.  He hated fanatics and seeing the commitment they had for this Demortis person only meant that they would do anything for him and that scared the hell out of him.  He suddenly began to realise that this mission was going to be far from easy.

“Alright men, you saw that, keep your eyes peeled!” yelled Anival.

“Line back up!” Ron ordered promptly.

Wraith quickly formed back up, and marched pass the bodies. Anival stopped, aimed high and fired three shots, two of which found its mark, a body tumbled from one of the buildings, and landed next to Zak. He jumped. Ignacio laughed with gusto.

“Whats wrong little man?” the bigger addition to wraith called “Scared?”

“Quite!” ordered Ron, Ignacio leered at the Squad Leader, but obeyed the order.

“We are only thiry meters away. Expect heavy resistance, these arent just loyal members, they're crazier than cultists.”

“Ignacio, take the lead, you have the bigger guns use 'em.”

“It's iggy.” murmured the trooper.

A loud explosion blew a chunk out of nearby wall, and a small driod made their way slowly towards them, it was an ancient R2 unit, it had severel small canons attached to it, and destroyer droids flanked it.

“Fall back!” yelled Ron, as a small blue orb shimmered in front of the droids.

The squad ran across an open street, red boltz flying all around. They ducked into a small building, one that wraith had now become accostomed too, having had to take cover in there multiple times. Anival tooks out his binoculars and look at the droids, the two destroyers looked in average shape, but there shields were shimmeringing, even without shields, Anival knew they were tough opponents, the smaller R2 unit, had something strapped to it's chest, and appeared home-made, it had three small mounted canons, two missle launchers at its side, and something black on its chest.

“Ron, maybe you should look at this.”

Ron let a string of curses fly, he turned to Anival and spoke softly.

“What do we know about this building?”

“We have been here before, it should withstand the missles impact, and we can hold out, getting to the second floor is a good idea, those droids can't climb stairs. All in all, we can just go around them.”

Ron nodded. “When they get closer we will go in, droids are simple, so they will think we are in there.”

The building shook a it from the assault that started, they waited four minutes, and a droid apeared, just the lone R2 unit, it blew out the door and started to unleash a barrage, the squad ran upstair and headed for a window, only to see the two Destroyer droids, waiting for them.

“Frak!” murmered Ignacio.

“Alright, now what? Raasaa?”

“Hey I dont know, you guys are the “duck and cover” kinda people.”


“Alright guys, we're open for ideas, we are boxed in, and we just did the dumbest thing we could do at the moment.” Ron looked at Anival as he said the last part.

“I thought droids were dumb?” countered Anival.

“Hmm”

“Anyways, if we try to go down the damn little R2 unit will tear us to shreds.”

“Excuse me, sirs. Look.” Zak interupted.

“Sithspit!”

A group of ten men was running towards the building, it had een a trap from the beginning.

“They're just going to throw men at us.”

“All right, everybody make barricades, you will face the door, it will be easier to take them down.”

“Raasaa must be protected at all cost, she is our ticket to Demortis.” Ron said a barely audible whisper.

In no time at all they had set up the barricades, just as the men entered the room, the first four were quickly mowed down, the next hessitated, then charged, Anival got up, and heard more coming up the stairs.

“Well Zak, welcome to the corps.” Anival said through the helmets mike, the trooper next to him nodded.
OOC:

All right, we have engages some enemies, we are boxed in, think of it like a small siege. DO NOT end this event quickly, take your time with it. The R2 unit is not to be destroyed, if you want to blow a droid up just ONE destroyer no more. ENJOY

Zak cursed under his breath as he looked out from the position the squad had set-up.  He spotted the R2 unit, he still couldn’t get over how well armed it was.

That droid’s mine thought Zak as he brought his blaster to bear on the small droid.  He let loose a volley of blaster bolts.  The R2 unit emitted a shrill sound and moved so quickly it made Zak’s eyes spin.  The bolts sailed harmlessly past the droid. 

Suddenly one of the destroyer droids opened fire on Zak’s location and he had to hit the deck hard before he got blasted to a million bits.  Damn droids are ganging up on me thought Zak to himself.

He replied with a short blast from his blaster but he wasn’t surprised to see the bolts bouncing off the droid’s shields.  Still, it made him feel better having tried to take out the destroyer droid.

Well this is fun thought Zak as he looked around and realised that they were completely surrounded.  He sent a volley of blasts towards the surrounding enemy.  One of his shots impacted the chest of the closest person.  The other shots fell wide and the remainder sought cover.

“Looks like we may be here for sometime” commented Zeshaun.

“Let’s make every shot count” stated Anival as he glanced around the squad, “last thing we need is to run out of ammunition”.

“Good point” said Ron, “let’s be smart people”.

“I don’t know how we’re getting out of this one” murmured Zerohito to no-one in particular.

Zak never replied to Zerohito’s comment, no-one did but every trooper looked around at each other, all of them thinking the same thing.

“Let’s stay positive people, we will get out of this!” barked Ron.

Zak nodded as he listened to the squad leader although he couldn’t figure out how they were going to achieve it.


OOC:
Sorry for the short post but I didn't really know where to take the story with us being in a siege.

"Zesh, Iggy, hold off some of those fanatics from a window," ordered Ron.

"What about the destroyers?"

"Kitrep, could you take the destroyers out with your equipment?"

"Not a chance with those shields, but some detonite on the floor around them would just blow the floor out from under their feet. Then we could hold them off from the stairs and windows," replied the combat engineer.

"Then do it. Jamasis, help him. Zero, Alajo and Zack watch the stairs. Me and Ani will move around when neccessary. Got it?"

"Sir." muttered Jamasis as he was lead off to the side. Kitrep got out a slab of detonite and split it into four smaller blocks.

"We've got to lay these around the destroyers. One of us has to place them, the other will have to use flashbangs to confuse the droid's sensory systems."

"Let me guess what I have to do... again."

"Actually, I'll lay the detonite. You throw the flashbangs." replied Kitrep.

"Fine with me." Jamasis was honestly surprised, he expected to have to go right up to the two heavily armed droids himself. This makes a change. Jamasis threw a flashbang, hitting one of the droids shields. At the same time, Kitrep moved forwards and lay the first piece of detonite in front of the droids, then placed another to their left. Jamasis threw his second flashbang as Kitrep finished laying the explosives.

"Now we've just got to detonate it," said Kitrep. "Anymore flashbangs?"

"You mean we've got to light it!" yelled Jamasis. "Screw that!" and he shot the detonite blocks with his A280 rifle, and as each laser bolt hit the blocks there was a small flame before an explosion, quite literally, blew the floor out from under the droids. "That destroy them?"

Kitrep looked down the hole in the floor. "No, they're fine."

"Sithspawn!"

"Cut it out, now! Kitrep, you're a combat engineer. Can you do a quick barricade at the top of the stairs?"

"Using what there is lying around, probably. It might be bulletproof, but I don't think it could take more than two hits from that R2 unit downstairs."

"Good enough. Jamasis, fire shots down that hole you just made to keep them busy downstairs. And try not to get yourself blown up."

"Ron, another twenty of 'em, coming in down the street," shouted Zeshaun.

"Don't they just quit?" asked Zero.

"Probably not," replied Ani from the window.

"Okay, cut the chatter. Ani, Zesh and Iggy keep on the window. Zero, Zack and Alajo keep the stairs secure. Jamasis, keep firing downstairs, and if more are coming I want that barricade quickly Kitrep!" shouted Ron.

OOC:
Okay, I’ve said where everyone is I think. Basically make at least the first part of whoever posts next the same as what I laid out, feel free to change it by the end of your post though. Think I forgot about Raasaa though ? Anyway, the destroyers are fine and the R2 unit is untouched, they’re all downstairs as well as the remaining fanatics and the twenty or so coming at us right now. Remember, they are fairly kamikaze, but also poorly equipped.

“Let’s go” said Zak as he jumped up from his covering position.

Kitrep gathered up what he needed and moved hastily to the stairs with Zak, Zero and Alajo following close behind him.

Kitrep began to construct a makeshift barricade whilst Zak moved to the right hand side of the stairs and pointed his blaster downwards.  Zero followed suit and held position on the left side of the stairs.

Alajo felt vulnerable and exposed as he stood in the centre but his large frame was delaying the construction of the barricade as Kitrep found himself constantly having to go around the trooper.

“Alajo, cover our backs” said Zak.

“I hear ya” replied Alajo.

Alajo moved away from the barricade and knelt down, his blaster moving back and forth as he made sure no enemies managed to sneak up behind them.  Kitrep found constructing the barricade to be more manageable and set to work.

“Here they come” called out Zero.

True enough, Zak saw several people moving up the stairs.  Some were crawling up slowly, others were clinging to the side of the stairs whilst others were just plain running up.  Zak couldn’t believe the tactics that these people were doing, surely they knew that they would be gunned down in such a vulnerable position.  He didn’t dwell on it for long as his blaster was soon sending lethal bolts to the oncoming storm.

Zak could hear multiple blaster fire behind him.  Even though he knew Alajo was covering their rear he couldn’t help but take a glance back to see what was going on.  He could see the Ani, Zesh and Iggy firing repeatedly through the window and he wondered just how enemies were advancing on them.

“All done” called out Kitrep.

Zak was glad to hear the barricade was up.  Although they had no trouble in fending off the advancing men, they found that there were more than they could really handle.

“Let’s fall back” said Zero.

“You read my mind” replied Zak.

Zak, Zero and Alajo fell back to the centre of the room and trained their blasters on the makeshift barricade.  All too soon the fanatics were at the barricade, hitting it with their weapons, even their fists but it held firm.

“Nice work” called out Ron.

“Thank you Sir” replied Kitrep, happy with the barricade.

“For Demortis!” yelled a voice.

Zak looked at the barricade and his eyes widened alarmingly.  One of the fanatics was standing at the barricade.  Around his waist was several thermal detonators.  Zak tried to open his mouth to warn the others but before he could say a word a large explosion rocked the room.

Windows shattered and Zak found himself being flung backwards.  The barricade shattered and several large pieces of weed flew across the room.  Zak groaned as he pulled himself up, every muscle in his body ached as he looked at the blood soaked remains of the barricade.

“Defend the stairs!” barked Ron.

Despite aching and his body telling him to rest, Zak was quickly kneeling with his blaster trained on the smouldering remains of what used to be the barricade.  He knew the fanatics would be coming and he didn’t know whether they would be able to hold them off or not.

Here they come thought Zak as he blaster opened fire.


OOC:
The name is Zak and not Zack by the way.  I got the barricade created and then destroyed and we're about to have a lot of fanatics storm the stairs.  Whoever posts next can take the story wherever.  Have fun.

Zeshaun lurched forward into the window and nearly fell out but Iggy grabbed him by the waist and held him back. Zeshaun rolled off the ground and looked back, the barricade had been destroyed and there was blood strewn everywhere. Zeshaun pointed his rifle back out the window and began to shoot more enemies as they flooded out of the buildings. Unfortunately the explosion gave the charging attackers enough to actually get into the building in mass. There were now attackers coming up the stairs and with the aides of the three droids, the Wraiths weren’t able to put up nearly as much resistance as they would have liked. Iggy was doing a very good job using his very large “Surf n’ Turf” turret to at least slow down the waves of enemy soldiers.

“You think you can slow them down on your own?” Zeshaun asked Iggy, wondering if he should go help out around the staircase.

“You don’t have to ask me twice.”  Iggy replied.

Zeshaun got up from his kneeling position and went over to Zak, Ron, and Kitrep. The four of them fired clip after clip down the stairs and a pile of bodies were stacking up. They fired in sequence so that no more than one person was reloading at one time.  The bodies of their fallen comrades made it harder for them to make it up the stairs and it acted as a “natural” barrier helping the Wraiths control the flow of attackers.

Zeshaun paused to check on Iggy and Anival, they seemed to be holding their own and it seemed that the flow of attackers was beginning to slow down. maybe they figured out that we weren’t pushovers Zeshaun thought as he picked off another enemy.  Zeshaun began to relax and he realized that he had been clenching his jaw the whole time and it was sore. He moved his jaw around and took a seat with his back against the wall, he took his helmet off and wiped from sweat from his face.

“I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news but the droids are still alive.” Iggy reminded everyone. “ And they are outside, and they don’t look happy.”

Zeshaun quickly shoved his helmet back on his head, he had completely forgotten about the robots in the heat of the moment. Zeshaun crawled over to the window and saw the three robots standing outside, looking angry, if it’s possible for a droid to look angry.

“GET DOWN!” Iggy yelled running away from the window and covering his head.

Zeshaun was showered in pieces of the wall and what remained of the glass in the windows. Where Iggy used to be, there was now a gaping hole in the wall. The droids had blown a hole into the wall leaving them open and revealed to the streets. The Wraiths all stood huddled together near the back of the room, away from the windows so that they couldn’t be seen by the droids out in the streets.

“We need a plan.”  Zak suggested.

OOC:
we got rid of the fanatics and they left to let the droids deal with us, now we just have to find a way to kill all three droids without getting ourselves blown up. Remeber this should be a difficult task

Great thought Zak to himself.  He had been happy to have taken care of the fanatics but had forgotten about the droids.  Now they needed to be dealt with and he was trying hard to think of a way to take them out.  It wasn’t long before Zeshaun decided to take action.

“Take this” shouted Zeshaun as he lobbed two grenades towards the trio of droids.

“Take cover!” barked Ron.

The squad clambered into defensive postures as they waited for the grenades to go off.  I hope they make short work of those destroyer droids thought Zak to himself as he huddled in a corner.

The R2 unit emitted a shrill beep as the grenades bounced in front of it.  Booster jets suddenly sprang from the R2’s sides and the droid began a swift ascent.  The grenades went off and the shields around the destroyer droids flared but held.

Inside the building, the squad could feel the room shudder as the grenades detonated.  They crawled to the open hole in the wall and peered towards where the droids were.  All they could see was a dense cloud of smoke which obscured any vision of the droids.  When the smoke cleared the squad could see that the R2 unit had disappeared but the destroyer droids were unharmed.

“Damn destroyer droids” muttered Anival.

“At least we got rid of that pesky R2 unit” stated Iggy.

A faint humming noise permeated that room.  The squad glanced uneasily around each other and then out towards the droids.  They couldn’t see where it was coming from but it was getting louder.

“Look out!” yelled Zero as he pointed upwards.

Zak glanced in the direction that he had pointed and cursed loudly.  The R2 unit was still intact and hovering above the building.  The thrusters jets giving off a low level hum but that wasn’t what Zak was cursing about.  The droid’s missile launchers were moving and they were angling downwards, directly towards the squad.

“Oh hell” muttered Alajo.

“Get out of here!” ordered Ron.

The squad didn’t need to be told twice as they made a dash for the stairs.  Dead bodies littered the stairs and the squad found themselves stumbling over them as they made a hasty retreat.

The R2 units missile launchers erupted as two missiles shot out with force and with great speed.  The missiles struck the building and the building shuddered.  The floor that the squad had once been on was immediately engulfed with a ball of fire. 

Zak raced down the stairs as he brought up the rear.  He crashed down hard onto the floor below as he could feel the flames licking at his back.  The acrid smell of burnt bodies assaulted his nostrils as he clambered up, happy to be alive.

“That was a close one” said Jamasis.

“I wouldn’t speak so quickly” replied Zeshaun, “look”.

Zak glanced over towards where Zeshaun was pointing towards.  In front of them lumbered the two destroyer droids.  Their weapons pointed at the squad, their clanking limbs moving them closer.

Oh hell thought Zak to himself as he gripped his blaster tightly I don’t know how we’re going to get out of this mess.


OOC:
I have got us engaging the droids and as yet all three of them are intact, I figured we could have some fun with them.  Zeshaun did say they would be difficult to destroy.

Anival glanced from left to right, there was one possible way to get past the droids, it was risky, but it had to be done.


“Zesh! Come here!” Yelled Anival over the blaster fire.

Once Zesh was there, he waved over Zak.

“Alright, I have a plane, but the timing has to be PERFECT. Otherwise, say good bye to each other right now. Understand?”

They nodded.

“Alright first off take these.” Anival handed out adhesive grenades. “When I give the sign throw these at the droids shields. It should stop them.”

“How are the grenades going to go through.” Anival smiled, even though he knew it couldnt bee seen through his helmet. “Those shields only protect against energy...” Anival let the though hang in the air. The two men nodded and went back to their respective places.

Anival walked towards the door, and peeked, he was met with a volley of shots, he ducked narrowly avoiding, the shots.

He took a deep breath, and activated the grenade.

“Activate them!”

Anival waited until he heard the measured breathing that meant they were ready.

“Throw them!”

Anival threw his grenade and it exploded in the air, gluing the droid to the spot, and rendering the turrets useless. Anival ran out and threw himself against a wall, a loud thud emanating form the impact. The squad followed suit.

The last to arrive were Zesh and Zak.

Footsteps were the only thing audible, no more blaster, no more explosions, only an eerie quite of thudding boots, most of the squad ran in unison, having had months, and years of running together for life.

“Raasaa how much farther?” asked Ron clearly getting impatient.

“Not much, maybe two kilometers at most.”

“Good.” stated Ron.

“Good” someone mumbled under their breath. Anival agreed with whoever had mumbled, he was getting tired fast, even with the pills, they were no substitute for sleep, and he could feel his eyelids getting heavy, like a granite slate, he stumbled upon his own feet, walking automatically, not even thinking, A sharp rap on hi helmet snapped him out of his trance, Ron had hit him and was yelling something, Anival hadn't even noticed his comm had somehow turned off, he quickly turned it back on berating himself.

“.....damnit Anival, snap out of it.” Anival nodded.

“See that building in the distance?” asked Raasaa pointing at a building some ways out.

Anival was quickly starting to trust Raasaa, not with his life, or the life of his squad mates, she had after all, shot Rons ear off, but slowly she was starting to act like an imperial citizen, just like the Arkanian were going to, or die.


OOC:
Alright, the other two droids {DESTROYERS} can be whatever(ed) by you guys, just leave the R2 unit, I will continue to stress this, because it is important to the little twist I added to the story. We are about 1 km away from the building. POST YOUNGLINGS!

Zeshaun looked ahead at the building, while most people were glad that it was so near, he wasn’t sure everyone had the same perception of close. The building seemed very far away, and the way his body was feeling, he wasn’t even sure he could make it half way there. Even with the pill that Anival had supplied his body was feeling the wear and tear of the time and dedication that the squad had put into stabilizing Arkania. Zeshaun rested his body against the wall for a moment while the rest of the squad moved on down the street, nervously scanning all the windows and alley ways. Zeshaun suddenly felt a big strong hand weigh down on his shoulder. He looked up and saw Iggy.

“You doin’ alright man?” He asked resting his large gun against the wall and taking his helmet off with his other hand.

“You should probably keep that on, don’t know whats hiding out here.” Zeshaun said waving towards his helmet.

Iggy shrugged and grinned. “Not a big deal, if I die, so be it.”

Zeshaun had to smile, the man had an infectious atmosphere around him. Seeing Iggy smile, immediately put him in a better mood and he got up from the wall and began to walk again, going into a quick jog to catch up with the rest of the squad. Iggy jogged along with him obviously holding back but staying back to keep Zeshaun company.

Before he knew it, the building was getting closer and closer, and the winding path they were taking made it so that the droids would have a harder time tracking them down. Unfortunately the droids did not fall prey to fatigue. The uneasy sound of gears grinding and pistons pumping kept coming closer and closer while the Wraiths really showed their signs of unrest. The only thing moving them on was the fact that they had a duty to fulfill and they knew, almost for a fact, that they could not hold off another attack like the last one, even if it was just the droids.

“Anyone hear that?” Jamasis asked, breathing heavily. The Wraiths had been moving at a good speed the whole time.

The squad stopped to listen and sure enough they heard an engine of sorts echoing off the building walls, making it impossible to tell where it was coming from. Everyone held their rifles close to their bodies, looking up into the sky and waiting for whatever was making that noise.

“Let’s keep moving.” Raasaa suggested impatiently, stamping her foot and looking around very nervously. “I don’t like standing around when we are so close.”

Ron just held up his hand and she shut her mouth, two shadows could be seen coming around the corner and everyone held their breath.

“Here we go team.” Ron muttered as the forms of two battle droids walked around a corner while the sounds of jets filled the air.

The colored bolts began flying through the air, luckily they were not caught in one of the narrower alley’s and so there was more room to spread out, and the chance that one rocket could take them all out was cut down. Zeshaun used the butt of his rifle to smash in a large decorative window and flinched on the inside as the magnificent artwork that was placed into that window was now in shambles and littered the area around his feet. Zeshaun’s feet crushed the glass as he stepped over it and went into the home taking cover behind the window sill. He uncharacteristically took a breather before he even began, the toll of his body was monumental and he hoped that it would not affect his performance for the rest of the mission. He caught the eye of Anival who was across the street and gave him a thumbs up, he could tell that Anival was looking concerned even though his helmet.

Anival’s voice crackled in over the comlink system. “You okay over there Zesh.”

“I’m fine, just a tad tired.”

“I hear ya, don’t get killed though.” A click signified the end of their communication from his side.

Zeshaun took a deep breath and looked around the corner, aiming for the droids. There was substance around their feet, telling him that they were the same droids that they had been fighting before. good to know they don’t have tons of droids to throw at us Zeshaun thought as he quickly began devising a plan to take out those pesky pieces of metal.

OOC:
So we are very close to the target building but we re tired, and the droids have caught up, but this gives us a good chance to take them out with some devious plan that I haven't created yet so have fun with it.

As Beta ran down the streets, dodging blaster bolts and hearing the sound of working machinery getting closer and closer. He looked behind himself but only just in time to see a rocket flying at himself. He ducked down to dodge it and dove to take cover in a narrow alley just off to the side. While crawling prone, Beta heard a couple clunks of metal against ground and turned his head one-eighty degrees. The sound stopped and he saw a battle droid standing only a few feet behind him. Beta slowly turned his body around then quickly took his blaster pistol out of its holster and shot the droid before the droid could react. After the metal hit the ground Beta continued to run, putting distance between himself and the droid mob.

After around two minutes he could hear firing in the distance and was glad that the droids had found another target to fight but it wasn’t far away. Beta took out his modified A280 rifle and slowly opened a door and pointed the rifle inside the house before walking inside. He looked left and right, only seeing a deserted hallway and a door. He tried the handle but it was locked. Beta then used his cybernetic arm to push the door off of its old fashioned hinges in a noisily way. As he walked slowly into the room, he saw a broken window with the droids on the outside and a group of stormtroopers looking around the corner at the droids with rifles in hand and ready to fire. The armour the troopers were wearing notified that they were Wraith troopers. Beta’s own armour signified RAIDERS. I’m surprised that he didn’t notice the sound of the door he thought. Beta lowered his own rifle and started to walk forward when he stepped on a piece of glass that broke. One of the Wraith troopers quickly turned around and fired a shot that just missed Beta.

“Frak, I’m on your side!” Beta said as he was regaining his balance.

“RAIDERS I see,” the trooper said, “I’m Zeshaun”

“Name’s Beta. Now I see you guys have a bit of a problem.”

Meh, short but it's something... besides this is the first post since wednesday.


"In case you havn't noticed, the blaster dosn't seem to be working," pointed out Ani.

"You think?" said Jamasis as he fired a quick burst towards the destroyer droids.

"Cut it out! Anyone got ideas?"

"No."

Let's think it through... we need to take out what? Two seriously poweful droids with incredibly powerful shields. Then there's an R2 unit which is more or less a tank. Interesting idea, but what the f-

"Get back!" shouted Kitrep. The R2 unit fired two rockets towards the wraiths, who scrambled away just in time. "You know, if they didn't have shields my E-11 could take them out."

"It's only standard issue; these are damn good, even without shields." replied Jamasis.

"Standard? This could take out a vehicle. It's a heavy E-11, fully eq-"

"Yeah yeah. The more obvious problem is the shields."

"They're electrically powered right?" A frenzy of blaster bolts and rockets flew towards the wraiths again. Iggy, Zesh and a trooper that had just joined them returned fire as soon as they could, with little effect.

"Well I don't think something this good would use petrol. Otherwise we could just let them run out of fuel."

"Ron! Those shields are electrical, right?" asked Kitrep.

"Yeah, why?" replied the SL.

"We could just overload them then?"

"I thought you were a decent engineer?"

"Well, yeah, but circuits and stuff never really worked for me, I mea-"

"If you could cause enough damage to the shields within around three seconds, they would overload for certain. Of course, it's not really been effective so far." explained Ron.

"Everyone here has grenades right? And several guns. Plus I got a bit of detonite left over."

"You're going to get that close?" asked Jamasis.

"I'm not sure... but it would work. On the other hand we'd have practically no explosives left and we'd still have to take out the droids."

OOC:
Yeah, mostly chatter. Assume we're being fired upon the whole time and I gave a rough plan. The R2 unit is probably strong enough to survive, or have a back-up power source or something... unsurprisingly.

Anival covered his head somehow the droids had all disappeared, all except for the R2, which seemed to be a malevolent angel, harassing them constantly, not being fast enough to catch them, but fast enough for it to harass the squad.

“Alright there it is, the building.” said Raasaa as she pointed towards the building.

“How do you suppose we enter it?”

“I say we fly in.” Anival said with as serious a face as he could muster.

“What?” asked Ron looking at Anival as if he were a hairless wookie.

“I was kidding….”

Ron rolled his eyes and turned around.

“Really, how are we going to get in?”

“Look!” Shouted Jamasis.

Anival turned to see what Jamasis was going on about, Raasaa was at the door and walked in. Anival was shocked, the woman had guts, he would give her that much.

“Well are you coming or not?!” came a question through the comms, Anival forgot she even had access to their code. He would talk to him about changing them after the mission, no use a mercenary knowing their business.

“Come on men?!” ordered Ron, it sounded more like a question to Anival than an order, he chuckled, Ron was thrown off by Raasaa’s boldness as well.

The Squad marched-jogged to the building, all of them in formation, the sound of armor on floor audible, not loud but still audible. It had an eerie effect, more of a confidence builder than anything, the sound made it seem, as if a whole army was walking towards their goal, an unstoppable army at that. Which is what it felt like when you WERE marching, but when you were in the firefight, it made you dread getting hit, it made you want to find the nearest spaceship and run away. The feeling soon left, but traces of its whisper always remained.


“Well now what?” asked Anival


“Demortis should be on the uppermost floor.”


“Demortis……” Anival said the name like a curse.

Short post but take it or leave it , basically we got in the building prepare to encounter some resistance. No Bazookas or anything.

Zeshaun was nearly left behind as the squad awkwardly began jogging toward the door, Raasaa’s boldness had caught everyone off guard. Zeshaun slung his rifle over his shoulder and jogged behind everyone, the constant moving did not give him a moment to rest his weary body and he found himself breathing hard, just from the light jog across the courtyard to the front door. The only one that was full of energy and even excited to be running head on into danger was Iggy, Zeshaun wished he could have the same enthusiasm.

“Raasaa hold on!” Ron shouted as loud as he could without alerting anyone.

The mercenary stopped, looking annoyed and was giving Ron a dirty look. “If we don’t hurry, Demortis will get away.”

“You haven’t been running on only a few hours of sleep each day.” Jamasis said, leaning his hand against a wall.

Raasaa rolled her eyes. “You call yourselves the pride of the Vast Empire.”

The squad took a breather, the soft echoes of their footsteps faded away. The building was dark, the lights were out and they couldn’t seem to find any switch to turn them on. The dim lights from computer panels along the halls cast eerie shadows making Zeshaun very nervous. After the short break, the squad began to move again at a more manageable pace,  and Raasaa led the pack down the twisting and turning halls, she seemed to know exactly where she was going even though she didn’t have a map or had not looked at one since they had entered the building.

Zeshaun was still near the back and whispered to Jamasis who walked next to him. “How do you think she knows where she is going?”

Jamasis shrugged “Honestly I don’t really care, as long as she can lead us to Demortis and we can kill him, then we can get some rest.”

Zeshaun laughed, but stifled it into his hand, not wanting to make any unnecessary noises. After thinking over what Jamasis said, he had to say that he agreed and that since she had not lead them astray by now,  he tucked away his thoughts about being betrayed and followed Ron and Raasaa down the halls.

OOC:
So, we are just making our way thgrough the building, I didn't really specify where we are exactly so the next poster can decide how far along we are.
