  VENI: Underboss for none

Econd was glad to be back in VE controlled space and far away from the system his last mission was in.  After he was debriefed by his handler Ali Elace, he went to his cabin for a few winks before he was sent back out into the field.  He was able to get four hours in before he awoke.  He was surprised he was able to get that long before he was summoned.  Stess began to walk down the hall to the mess.  When he got there he was surprised at how many other agents were there.  He grabbed his meal and quickly finished, Econd began to wonder the many halls of the complex.

Econd was walking down the halls to the Naval Intelligence bunks, when his data-pad started to buzz with a message.  Agent Stess you are to report to Tactical Command, the mission briefing begins in ten minutes.  Ali.  Econd turned right on his heel and began to run down the hall to TactCom.  He arrived at the command room in less than seven minutes.

“Now that everyone is here let’s start.  We have received a request from a member of the Hutt Cartel who wants to get out of that life style.  This member will provide us information about the Cartels operation, as well as give us the location of a few of their major space hubs.  We have also received word that he has information about attack on the Naval High Command this information was obtained from intercepting messages from his base but the receiver of the messages has continued to elude us.  We need him here alive no matter the cost.  That is your mission Blades.”  Ali said.

“Yes sir, I’ll bring him back here.” Econd said.

“You will be heading to the planet Teth, in the same named system.  All we know about their base is it was one of the Empires former military outpost.  Your objectives are as followed.  First is the extraction of Trask, then as follows you are to disable their security systems, place a worm into their computer system, backpack their com systems, and finally signal the fleet to assault the stations.  You are to rendezvous with the extraction team at the coordinates provided in the data-pad.  You leave in ten minutes, Dismissed.”  Ali ordered.  “You will know the group by the phrase ‘Hunting is slow going.’  Your response is ‘Only if the Kath hounds are out.’”

Econd grabbed his gear and the data-pad and walked onto the shuttle Cro.  He found his seat and began to read the data-pad over and over again when he memorized the whole data-pad he destroyed it preventing anyone else from reading it.  He spent the whole trip going over the plan and the possible layout for the base.

~~~~


They landed in Inner Teth where the meeting location was, to insure that the shuttle would not be permanently grounded if they changed their minds by invoking a blockade.  Econd grabbed his gear and walked off the shuttle he got no more the three feet away when the shuttle left him.

“We’ll be awaiting your signal Blades, good luck in there.”  The Pilot said.

“Yea, I’ll try to finish this one up quickly.  I know how impatient you flyboys get.”  Econd responded.

The shuttle left the spaceport just as quickly as it arrived.  When Econd was sure the shuttle was at a safe distance he began his walk to the cantina.  He was sitting in the cantina for a half an hour before Blades caught movement out of the corner of his eye.  Three men jumped out of the bench seats after they saw their boss moved to Econd.

“Hunting is slow going.”  Kiee said.

“Only if the Kath hounds are out.” Econd responded.

“Come with us our boss is looking for you.” Kiee said.

“Very well, lead the way.” Blades said.

One of Kiees’ men grabbed a black bag and handed it to Kiee and said.  “This is for your own good.”  They walked out of the cantina and shortly the bag was placed over Econds head.  This is not looking so good. Econd began to think.

They spent two hours trying to disorientate Econd, when they were sure he had no idea where they were, they made their way to the base.  The base was surrounded by 15 foot walls with three points of entry.  There were eight 20 foot towers surrounding the base, at the three entry points were automated turrets, and three pirates.  It had three buildings, and a shuttle pad one of the buildings was where the Empires solders bunked which looked to be empty, the second building was the main complex where they were leading Econd, and the last building was a storage bunker.

They entered the main complex and began a short journey to the elevator that was going to take them deeper into the base where Trask was waiting.  They walked past a few offices that were changed into room for the guards.  Econd made sure to get a good look in every room as he was trying to find the main security room.  They made their way to the elevator before Econd could find the room.  Kiee press the button and they made their way down two levels to Trask.

They reached the third floor and walked past a few more rooms.  The first one on the right held an armory; the second was the room Econd was looking for the main security offices.  The room was guarded by two men one was watching the monitors the other watching the door.  Every few hours they switched spots.  Kiee nudged Econd forward slightly, and they continued down the hall to the main office.  Trask was standing behind the desk when Econd walked in.

“You can leave us Kiee.”  Trask said and they watch Kiee leave the room.  “Now that we are alone you know why I called you here.  I want to be free of the Hutts and get out of the life.  You guys can do that right?”

“That is why I was sent here to get you out, and make it look like you were forced out against your own free will.” Econd said.

“Good the whole plan was to make it look like you are here as one of my new recruits, which is suppose to make them open up to you.  So how are you planning on making this work?”  Trask asked

“Well you will find out when it happens but I want you to be ready to go at anytime.”

“I already am set to go just give the word.”  Trask said. “The lounge should have some food ready for you now, and a room has been set up as well.”

“I’ll go acclimate myself with your crew to reinforce the story.”  Econd said as he walked out of the room.

Econd walked up to the lounge and grabbed his plate and sat at a small table with some of Trasks’ men.  He began to get to know them trying to get what little information they would give him.  He ate his meal and headed to the room that was supposed to be his.  He sat down and waited for his planned extraction time.  He stood up and suddenly he felt lightheaded; crap what did they give me?  He fell back down on the bed, and his world went black suddenly.

~~~Three hours later and deeper in the base~~~

Econd woke up groggy and bound to a chair in an unknown part of the base.  He looked around and he could barely make out any shapes.  He slowly began to regain his vision as he noticed Trask walking in with Kiee at his back.

“Do you really think that I wanted to leave the freedom of this life?  You will allow me to move up in the eyes of the Hutts or should I say the Information you have will?”  Trask retorted.  “Kiee you may begin questioning him now.  Remember he was trained to withstand this.”  Trask turned and left the room leaving Kiee and Econd alone.

“So where do I began to start?” Kiee asked as he walked over to the table.  He placed his tools on it in the order he planned to use them.

“This one looks nice.”  He says as grabs a knife with a six inch curved blade with a serrated edge at the tip of the blade.  He began to walk over to Econd with the knife in hand.

“So are you going to tell me what I want to know?” Kiee asked.

“That depends on what you’re asking.” Econd responded sarcastically.  Kiee responded with a simple backhand across his face.

“My mother hits harder than that, what are you trying to do make me laugh.”  Econd was responded by another smack.

“Ok let’s get started with the fun.  What do you know about our current base locations?” Kiee asked.

“Only what your mother told me.” Econd responded baring a large grin on his face.

“Wrong answer,” Kiee said as he began slicing Econd.  “Now I’ll ask you again. What do you know about our current base locations?”

“The question isn’t what we know about your bases but what we don’t know about them.”  Econd responded.

Kiee looked at the knife and at Econd and realized that he needed to change tactics.  He walked back over to the table to grab another tool...

~~~Trask Two Months Prior ~~~

Trask was roaming the halls of his new base of operation.  It was a five level military base on the planet Teth.  His gang had recently discovered it in one of their races, and reported it to Trask who quickly moved in.  The crew quickly made the repairs and set up their watch posts.

Trask was just passing the control center of his base when he received a message from the 7-LOM protocol droid.  “You need to make a great donation to our great boss within one rotation of our system or you will fight the Kell dragon.”  The 7-LOM droid cut the transmission right after it finished.

Trask and his most trusted friend and right hand Kiee met up in one of the briefing room in the base to plot how they were going to please the Hutt.

“Trask how much bacta do you think we can obtain by then?” Kiee asked.

“We will get nowhere near enough to impress the boss.  We need something better we need to find out who is doing the most to halt his progress and who is doing it and relay the information with a large supply of bacta.  I need you to find out which government is doing the most damage to his bacta supply and set up a meeting.” Trask replied.

“How do you want me to set up a meeting with one of them?”  Kiee asked.

“Tell them I want to quit and looking for a way out, or something and let them know I will give up information on the Hutts movement.  Also give them the location of a few of his smaller bases, as a show of good faith.”Trask said.

“It will be done boss.  Do you want me to let the Hutt know what we are going to do?”  Kiee asked.

“No, I want to make it look completely legit, no one besides the two of us will know.”  Trask said.

“He will send bounty hunters after you, and our guards will likely turn you in if they find out he put a price on your head.”

“Well you just need to them off me till my plan is reveled Kiee, so can I count on you?”  Trask asked.

“Yes boss we need to get this done and over with fast, I will send my best men to find out who you will ‘Defect’ to and set the whole plan into motion.”  Kiee responded.

~~~ Two weeks later (from start of this post) ~~~

Kiee received a message from his men and found out that the Vast Empire was hindering their forces at every turn.  The New Republic was too focused on the Imperial Remnant, and only shut down any pirates in their systems.  The Imperial Remnant could care less about the Hutts long as they didn’t bother them.  Kiee sent a message to Trask requesting a meeting.

“Boss, I found out that the Vast Empire has been systematic hunting us down.”  Kiee said, “I have also sent word to them about your wishes to defect, and also how to get a hold of you.”

“Good let’s hope they get in contact with us soon so I can end this charade.”  Trask said.

~~~ Econd Stess Four days later ~~~

Econd Stess was reading through his messages and found one with a potential asset.  He walked over to his current Handler to find out if anyone was trying to turn him.  Ali Elace grabbed the data-pad that Econd was handing her and began to look up any information about him.

Name: Trask Volas
Species: Human
Age: Between 27 and 33
Gender: Male
Height: 5’ 7” tall
Weight: 150 lbs
Hair Color: Black

Handling Agent: None
Known Associates: Unknown
Criminal Organization: Member of the Hutt Syndicate (Hutts Name: Unknown)
Criminal Activity: Known for hitting a fleet twice their size and getting away with all the Bacta Freighters.
Personality: Unknown
History: Unknown


“This is all the information we have on him.  You will be required to find the missing information as part of making him your asset.  You will also be responsible for extracting him and bringing him back.  I will talk to the Grey’s and get you assigned him.” Ali said as she began to walk up the stairs to their sector chief to get the authority need to begin turning him.

A few short hours latter Ali walked over to Econd and set the pad down which allowed him to purse this farther.  He began digging up whatever information he could find on him.

~~~One week and three day later ~~~

Econd was working through the information he gathered and began to fill in the missing pieces.  His data-pad began to chirp from the second message from Trask.  Blades reached over and grabbed it off its recharging platform and began to read the message.

Hello John, as you doubt my resolve to leave the employment of the Hutts, I will show you a faith of good will and give you some locations of our bases.  I will give you all the rest when I am out and safely in your governments’ hands.  (Documents attached)
Trask Volas


Econd grabbed the pad and walked over to Ali and placed it down.  She grabbed the pad and began to read over the message and looked up at Econd.

“Couldn’t resist changing your name could you?”  Ali said.

“You know me I like to keep my real life out of my work life, but that’s not why I am here.  We need to find out how accurate this information is before I can continue to pull him out of the field.  Do you think you can show this to our boss?”  Econd asked her.

“I’ll find out how much of this information is correct, and move it up to the Greys'.  Let’s see if he is honestly looking for a way out.”  Ali replied as she left to meet their boss.

~~~ Trask 1 week before the first post ~~~

“I heard that the Vast Empire raided the bases we supplied them.”  Trask said.

“Yes, they did and they attacked at the best time.  They had a full supply of bacta at the bases ready to be shipped to the Hutt.” Kiee said.

“Have the Hutts found out that we were the ones to leak the information yet?”  Trask asked.

“Yes they did I have my most trusted men watching out for the Bounty Hunters he sent.  Hopefully that agent will get here before them.” Kiee answered.

“We just have to wait till that agent is in our hands to get the Hutt off our back, till then we need to be careful.”

Econd woke up in his cell four hours after the last session of torture.  Blades looked around the cell to see of there was any possibly of escaping.  There was a single bunk along one wall and a refresher off in the corner.  Econd was surprised to see that the bases detention cell was still operational.

Stess slowly stood up and began to search the wall holding the containment shield for an access port hoping that the recent inhabitants made a mistake and opened a port inside the cell.  Econd searched the wall for a good half an hour and found out it was one solid piece with no possibly ports within reach.

Econd realized he had to try to escape when they either brought him back to the cell or when they removed him from it.  Econd began to pace back and forth trying to formulate a plan.  Suddenly the room began to fill with knock out gas and Econd was soon over come by the smoke.

He woke up in the torture chamber again, and was strapped to a table.  He realized he was alone in the room and tried to get out of the Stun cuffs attached to the table.  He stopped struggling when he felt the cuffs began to tighten.  He was surprised at how organized the branch of the Hutts operation was. I guess I underestimated this small group;  Econd thought.

Kiee walked into the room, and noticed that the cuffs had tighten and a smirk appeared across his face.  “You really should to tell me what I want to know.”

“Now why would I give to the pleasure of being the first person to break a VENI agent?” Econd asked.

“How about to be able to use your hand in the future.” Kiee said.

“Which hand are you talking about.  My strong hand being my left, or my weak hand?” Econd asked.

Kiee figured that Econd was bluffing when he remembered everything that Econd did with his hands he used his right mostly.  Kiee broke every finger on Econd right hand, and began the second session of torture.  This session lasted a little longer and Econd was partially aware of his surroundings.  He was laying on that table for ten minutes before the two guards arrived to place him back in his cell.

When the two guards walked in he was glad that they weren’t Gamorreans.  The first guard was a human of average build, with a Devaronian partner slightly bigger then the human. Econd realized he might be able to handle them, but was unsure with having a broken hand.  Econd waited till they released him from the tables restraints to make his first move.

As soon as both of his hands were free he grabbed the head of the Devaronian and slammed it into the table and quickly reaching the stun baton on his belt and dealt with the human.  He stood up and slowly moved the two on either side of the table and bound them to it.  The Econd gagged them with their own belts.  He searched them for anything he could get.

They each had a stun baton while the Devaronian had a security card, and the human had a coms unit.  He grabbed everything and moved towards the door.  He slowly opened it and looked out to see if there was any guards in the hall way.  The left side was clear but the right side had a large Gamorrean which was walking towards the room.  Econd slid it till the Gamorrean just passed and grabbed the two stun batons and used both on him. Luckily taking him down, but the pain in his right hand became so overwhelming that he dropped the baton.  He grabbed it and a patch of cloth and made a makeshift splint.

He slowly made his way down the hall carefully searching some of the rooms for any supplies.  The first room he found a bunch of random useless objects mostly all personal.  The next room the only thing Econd found that was useful was a backpack.  He passed the small medical room and looked inside.  He was shocked to see it was empty so he slid in and grabbed a few supplies when he heard the sounds of someone being dragged in.

Econd hid behind one of the storage lockers.  One of the guards walked over to the wall and activated one of the med-droids, and then left to try and find Econd.  Blades waited a little while to make sure the guard was not coming back before leaving his hiding place.  Econd quietly moved over to the droid and deactivated it.  As soon as it was shut down he pried open the panel to began to rewire it to incapacitate any and all of the guards brought in…

Econd was having a hard time trying to rewire it with only one hand that he was shocked several times before he decided to just permanently disable it by ripping out every wire he had in his hand.  Econd was trying to figure out his next move when the door began to open Econd slid his way behind a storage locker, and waited to be discovered.  He peered out from his cover and saw Kiee standing in the room and saw that he was looking over the broken medical droid.  Econd slipped out from his cover and grabbed Kiee arm and spun it around to his back and broke it.

Then he grabbed the stun baton and set it on Kiees’ chest and then he let go of Kiee and pressed the button turning it on.  Blades began to set his hand in a medical splint he found in one of the cabinets and left the stun baton he was using behind.  Stess walked out the door and resumed searching for the security room.

He walked around until he found a lift, and he pressed the button to take him to the third floor.  When he arrived on the third floor he followed the path he took the first time he made it and made his way to the Armory he grabbed an ammo belt and filled it with ammo packs for both a blaster pistol, and a blaster rifle.  He grabbed a few flash bangs and a blaster rifle, and a pistol.

He walked out of the armory with the pistol in hand, and made his way to the security control room.  He slid the open a little and saw three people in the room.  Stess holstered the pistol and grabbed the flash bangs and dropped it in the room and closed the door when he heard it go off he walked in with the pistol and shot the guards.  Econd moved the body from the seat and began to deactivate the security systems.  He broke through the firewalls and had to deactivate each system.

Stess started to deactivate the alarms and found the each system had a firewall he needs to break to get access to the system itself.  The firewalls were getting harder with each system he took offline.  The last two firewalls were for the automated turrets outside as well as the security shield preventing anyone leaving the complex.  He started with taking the security shield off hoping that when the guards realized they were offline they would active the turrets and make it easier to deactivate them.

Once Econd broke through the firewall and shut them down he watched the guards rush to the turrets and activate them.  Stess took the chance and was able to bypass the firewall saving him the hassle of trying to break the code for the seventh time.  He changed the IFF to show him as a friendly just in case they figured out he took them offline.

When Econd finally disabled every system, and patch himself to the fleet that sent him to send the worm and the shuttle to pick him up at the extraction point, which was denied when they found out that he did not currently have his main target in the bag.  Econd replied he would send another message at the extraction point once he had the target under wraps.

He wiped everything he just did from the system and began to search the base for Trask.  He found Trask was on the sixth floor just above the floor he left.  Econd left the room and walked into a group of four more members of Trasks Men.  Econd quickly returned to the room and grabbed the Blaster rifle off his back and began to shoot at the patrol.  He was lucky he took them by surprise and was able to drop one of them right away.  The rest were able to get to cover and return fire…

Econd looked in the security control room for an alternative exit he soon realized that the door was the only way out.  Econd then decided to set a diversion he quickly grabbed the guard in the seat closest and placed the blaster rifle in his hand and moved him to the door.  Stess rigged the trigger then threw the last flash bang, and pushed the guard out the door towards his friends.  Blades then quickly took off in the opposite direction looking for the other elevator.

He ran past the elevator when he heard the doors start to open and hid in a nearby room.  When he heard them search each room, Econd began to look for a place to hide and spring out quickly if needed.  They began to search the room Econd was in and luckily for Stess they were not doing a very thorough search.

They moved on to the next room and Econd waited till they were at least a few doors down before he left his hiding place.  He carefully peered out the door and saw the hall was clear.  Econd waited till he saw them enter the next room before he made a run for the elevator.

Econd made his way into the elevator and selected the sixth floor.  When he arrived at on the floor he grabbed the Blaster Pistol and began to clear rooms searching for Trask.  He slowly opened each door and cleared the rooms as he moved down the hall.  The pain started to get to Econd as he tried to open the tenth door.  Econd slid down along the wall and tried not to scream out in pain.  He waited a little while to be able to block out the pain, and when he was finally able to block out most of the pain he slid the door open.

The room he walked into had a closed door on the right side. So Econd quietly made his way to the door and opened it.  Trask was sitting at a desk staring at the monitors so intently that he did not notice Econd walk into the room with the pistol aimed at his head.  Trask only noticed him when he said. “Don’t move.”

“I was wondering how long it would take you to find me.” Trask said.

“Well I had to keep your guards busy, before I tried to make my move against you.  Now they are too busy searching the top three floors to notice I backtracked to get you.”  Econd remarked.  “Now I think its hard time you learn how to really torture someone to get the answers you want.”

Econd grabbed the pair of stun cuffs and locked Trask up.  He sent a quick chirp to his HQ that the mission was complete and ready for extraction.  Stess waited for the response and began to head out to the location specified, an open plain with minor cover.  Econd began his journey to the main elevator and set it to return him back to the third floor.

He stepped off the elevator and found the chair and the now empty rifle.  Econd quickly retrieved the rifle and jumped back on the elevator.  He changed the energy pack on the rifle and waited till they reached the ground floor.  Slowly pushing Trask out of the elevator he figured out that they must not have made it to the outside.  Econd found a speeder and forced it to start.  The sound of the engine starting was loud enough to get everyone outside and chasing him down.

Stess punched it as fast as it could go trying to get to the extraction point fast enough that he could get great cover till the drop ship arrived.  The trip was quick, and he jumped off the speeder and pulled Trask out. Econd began to set up at the best cover he could find, and when Trask began to get out of line Stess smacked him in the head with the stock of the rifle.  He hit Trask hard enough to knock him out cold for awhile.  Econd set up the rifle and waited for the guards to arrive.

Econd didn’t have to wait for very long and when he saw the first speeder he began to fire short steady bursts.  Stess shots hit the first speeder at the fuel cell causing it to explode.  The rest of the guards were able to get to cover before Econd could shoot them.  Stess noticed a small group try to flank him and just shifted his line of fire enough to keep the Pirates pinned down.

~~~Seven minutes later~~~

Econd was completely out of every grenade he grabbed, and he was down to the last rifle energy pack, as well as the last pistol pack.  The Pirates were less the 20 meters away hiding under the cover when the shuttle arrived for Econd.  A small squad rushed out of the shuttle and began to cover Econd as he dragged Trask back to the shuttle.

Econd was half way there when a blaster shot grazed his left arm, and the sudden jolt of this new pain finally set the rest of his pain to overdrive causing him to slowly drop and lose consciousness.
