Etan, walking in and seeing the antics that were coming about, broke it up by hollering" You, two have to get along in order for this mission to come off, as we all do."

"What is to become of this if we can't all get along" Etan bellowed.

"I think, if there is anyone we should take our frustrations out on it should be CAPT. RAIGEN." Etan continued, " He hasn't given us any assignments and or any objectives other than fighting amongst each other."

Etan walked nearer to his C3pwo droid, whispering commands.

Raigen had been watching the event from the cockpit, although no sound was hooked up so he had no idea what they were saying. Then again, he really didn't care. They had reached the first checkpoint and he decided to knock some sense into the crew. The Gray Hawk immediatly dropped out of hyperspace just inside the Chotov System, a desolate outer core system with only one real settlement. The Ghemost, it was a large supply turned battle station left over from the Exar Kun Wars. A small pirate group used it as a refueling station and a transport hub. It hovered above the gas giant Raetov in slow orbit.

The drop from hyperspace would jolt the crew to the ground. At least that should calm tem down. Raigen Looked up to the battle station to see the last thing he needed. A correlian gunship and corvette docked with the station. The corvette could be pirate, bt the gunship was most definatly New Republic. Raigen caled over the ship's intercom, "All crew to the Cargo Bay, immediatly!"

Raigen had hurried to the cargo bay and did a headcount, once everyone was there, he began to talk. "We are currently en route to a pirate battle station, the Ghemest, where we would pick up supplies and reenforcements. But two republic capital ships have docked with it. I suspect that it is completly taken over, there are about one hundred or so men vital to the Red Dragon Allance on board. We areabout to board, once within the ship, I will gas the docking bay. One of my astromech droids will hack nto the sations sytems and fog the entire ship, we will woork under cover."

Raigen began to hand each of the crew a pair of echani heat vision goggles,"Halos, Sayah, and Etan will make their way to the ship's bridge. Jag Fel and I will go mop up the new Republic Forces. Once You all get to the bridge, seal it off. Etan, can your protocal droid plug into the station's survilence systems?"

"Sure," Etan would growl.

"Good, then you three will take him with you and protect him while he finds where they are holding the pirates. Jag and I will take the mech droid and a few others and seal the two capital ships to the station. I don't want one NR soldier escaping. Once you get the prisoner location. Call me on my wrist com and we will all rendezvous at their location. Lastly, we will arm the newly released prisoners and storm the ships. If possible, I want both of those ships taken alive!"

"You may want to run through that again to keep them clear," Halos said.

"Hal, Etan, and Sayah. Take Etan's droid to the bridge and hack into the security cameras. Call in and tell me where the prisoners are, and the meet me there. Jag and I will be doing other things."

Raigen gave a nice salute and walked back to the cockpit but he stopped, remembering something. He opened up the weapons hold and then returned to the cockpit.

"Freighter, this is New Republic Forces, identify yourselves."

"Hey, take it easy. This is the cargo freighter Gray Hawk. We were carrying a few protoca droids to Coruscant when we got side tracked and ran out of suplies. Plus our hyper drive is shot, can we board and make repairs?"

"Granted, tractor beams are online now." Raigen heard. He walked back to the bridge as he started to arm himself. He picked up his blaster pistol and began to strap on the black scout trooper armor and picked up the...

Raigen looked up from the astromech droid to see Sayah going off ahead of the others. "Hey, wait for the smoke, and get your breath mask on!" Raigen had his breath mask built into his helmet, but they would need the black breathing masks he passed out with the goggles. Raigen looked back down. EeToo was slower than KayThree but he got the job done. Not like the malfunctioning Artoo units that everone worshiped. No, this would do fine.

Then Raigen heard the blaster shot. Jag had taken out two of the four, which was good if there wasn't about two hundred left. Raigen pulled up the squad gun and shot off down the doorway adjacent the keypad. It was an armory apparently. One of the radom ones that just held guns and ammo. The kind with no ventilation. EeToo beeped as he finished hacking through the systems. Raigen indicated to the droid to hold off on the gas until he gave the signal. Raigen shot off anther burst and looked to Jag, "Cover me while I close the door!" Jag nodded and leaned out to fire at the remaning two who had been joined by another group in the armory. There were now about eight.

"Can't get any shots off, too many of them." Jag said as Raigen fooled with the keypad. The code for overide was long and annoying. Raigen had to duck to avoid a shot that passed right y is head. Finnally, both the entrance and exit to the armory were sealed off. He signaled to EeToo and the droid triggered the gas. A white smoke similar to fog or exaust. Not deadly, but definantly opaque and vision hindering. Rai cicked on the heat vision built into his scout helmet and watched the view screen as the men stuck in the armory, which lacked a ventilation system, slowly passed out.

"Let's go. We'll get to the gunship and seal it off first. It will have the least resistance." Raige said as a slow flim of fog filled the corridor. Fifteen B1 battle droids started to move out of the ship, three groups of five. "OneBee, take EeToo with your squad and go seal off all the corridors except the ones connecting this area tothe bridge. Don't worry about blocking me off, I have access to the system. Squads two and three. I want you to start clearing out the armories. NR forces are trying to take them onto the CR90."

Sayah's three batt;e droids and one super battle droid slowly activated and stood. The super battle droid was carrying a heavy grenade launcher and the other were weilding their normal weapons. They followed him to the docking bay in time to see the hallway of the station explode in a hall of flame. Activating his HUD, Sayah saw several dead nr troopers on the ground. He pulled back the trigger on his gun and waited for all hell to break loose...

"We're all dying. Promise yourselves you'll be the last to go."
Commander Salvo

// Previous to the assault//

Etan turned from the briefing, walking arrogantly towards the crew quarters. He thought to himself smirkly, " I knew C3pwo would come in handy. I just hope he's up for a fight like in the old days."

Confidently walking into the room, Etan stopped within arms length of his best friend. "C3pwo. Command A, return to post." Etan stated. Immediatly C3pwo stood upright from his slouched position. His eyes became bright and alight, while his head made a whirling mechanical sound, as it turned back and forth three times.

"Master Etan?" C3pwo replied. " Is my assistance now needed sir?" he queried.

"Most assuredly my friend. You have been given the most important assignment." Etan went on to brief C3pwo in his role in the assault.

"Of course I can interface with almost any ships systems, execpt the most obsolete, and am in not in much need of protecting as my armour is laser resistant, futhermore I have..." Etan stopped him there.

"Listen my friend, first of all this is a silent mission. That means the less talk the better." Etan went on to explain the technical issues at hand." Furthermore, I just don't think too many beings appreciate your humor like I do. So, if you could just, keep all queries, suggestions, solutions and just plain comments in general to a minimum, I think we all make it through this intact."

With the mechanical whirl sound C3pwo nodded.

Sayah walked out of the docking bay, his DC-17 in hand. He had ordered the droids to stay behind firstly because of Etan's arrogant little attempt to place himself in command, second because of prior orders from Raigen. He caught a glint of metal and whirled around, shooting as he shot. Between him and Etan, the enemy troopers were quickly dispatched. They sprinted onwards shooting as they went.

"We're all dying. Promise yourselves you'll be the last to go."
Commander Salvo

Sayah paused for a moment impressed by Etan's speed and deadliness. He  had feared that Etan would be tempted to kill the troopers with brute strength, which would have been rather noisy, not to mention a bit of a givaway but his fears were proven unfounded. They came across another group of troopers and Sayah decided to set aside his DC-17 in favor of his knuckle vibroblade and built-in weapons. Three close swipes and one silent dart later it was all over for the group of rebels.

"We're all dying. Promise yourselves you'll be the last to go."
Commander Salvo

Etan cautioned Sayah," Take it easy young warrrior. Don't try to take out the whole station by yourself. I can see that you are very accomplished  but, perhaps we should wait for the rest of the team. Back up sortta speak."

Etan, sheathed his vibro blade and drew two daggers in each hand, which he was very adept with. If need be he could nestle them in the throut of the first two enemies he spied and them advance quicky for a quick silent kill on the third.

Etan was certainly big and certaintly strong, but that did not equate to clumsiness. C3pwo waited several paces back as previously instructed by Etan. Etan raised a hand cationing him to remain. C3pwo had a few tricks of his own though when push came to shove, and positioned himself in the most advantageous spot to implement them.

Once sealed within the bridge, Etan made a hasty apology to his superior Hal. " Sorry sir, but I thought you had left us on our own."

Turning as quickly as ordered, Etan instucted C3pwo to plug into the command center." Yes, Master Etan I will gain access to the security cameras on the double sir. Might I add that at the same time I could access controls to all the stations functions simultaneously." C3pwo waddled up to the access control panel, plugged a finger in and suddenly all the security panels went blank.

Etan taking C3pwo's lead ordered. " Now show all enemy positions to relay to Rescue Squad." C3pwo twisted his finger twice. Once to the left, then to the right. Suddenly all screens showed all the enemy positions complete with gaurds and automatic turrets.

"Furthermore, Master Etan ,I could relay the automatic turrents to fire only on enemy positions of ours if need be." C3pwo explained.

Etan turned to commander Halos, "Whadda you say sir? Any thoughts as to C3pwo's abilities. We can get him to do whatever?
He will even get us lunch if we ask him to."

Etan and C3pwo waited for commands.

"Can he back the toilets up?" asked Halos in a joking voice.

Then something hit him, but it was too late to change what he just said.  The main screen split between each bath room, showing toilets over flowing with water and then the blue fluid that they dissolve the waste in.

"Is that sufficient, Master Halos?" asked the droid.

"Yeah, that about does it," replied Bok in a sober voice.

"I don't believe I ever said anything about your droid," said Halos to Etan.  "But if I did, I take it back."

Etan just nodded in reply and told the droid to take the bathrooms off screen.  After taking a short time to collect data in his head he called up Raigen on the comlink.

"They are keeping prisoners in both the main storage and the brig."

"Copy that Tails," replied Raigen.  "Nice to hear you made it to the bridge."

"Oh yeah, Etan's droid programmed the turrets to shoot enemies again, so you don't need to worry about them any more."

"Great, what else did he do?"

"You probably don't want to know at this point."

"I'll take your word for it, sit tight for further orders.  Oh yeah, and Halos, I knew I could count on you.  You're just like your old man."

Raigen signed out, leaving Halos to think about their leader's last comment.  I knew he knew a lot more about me than he was revealing, thought Bok.  He probably knows that I know that too and is just beginning to peal the onion...
