“WHAT THE KRIFFIN’ HELL HAPPENED?!”

“Uhm… What was that?” Vee asked, a hint of fear in his voice as a plume of smoke drifted from the lit end of his lung blaster. He looked across the sabbac table to Aeos, who’s eye were wide and looking down the hallway of the Yacht that lead to the Assistant Squad Leader’s room.

She took a deep breath and looked over to Havock, who was resting on the long couch that was against the east wall of the rather large lounge of the Dancing Rancor. “Hav. You might wanna go check on your girl.”

Ayme Katash was already looking down the hallway that lead to Jae’s room, along with all the other rooms. Her own eyes were wide with a bit of fear as she too, took a deep breath. Looking to Aeos, she gestured her head in the direction of Jae’s room. “Come with me? So I have a witness if the girl kills me?”

Aeos chuckled and nodded, standing up and moving out from behind the sabbac table to the middle of the lounge room. Havock walked up next to the 2nd Lieutenant and began to make her way down the hallway, Aeos following close behind. They slowly made their way down the hallway, their shoes gently clanking on the polished steel frame of the floor. Both of them held expressions of slight fear, their fists clenching and unclenching. Sounds of huffing and puffing could be heard from the door that was only feet away from the two females. Then came the sound of banging on a steel wall.

“I think she’s punching something” Havock said quietly to Aeos, who only nodded and kept looking forward.

More banging and more huffing and puffing. Finally, Jaenna rushed out of the room, and halted right in front of Havock and Aeos, head lowered in obvious frustration and anger. The two girls froze like deer in headlights, only feet away from the angered, green-eyed girl in front of them. They both stared at Jae, who was breathing heavily, her chest rising and falling, only showing more and more of her anger with every exhale as her shoulders shook from the effort it was taking the ASL not to punch one of them. “I’m stopping the ship.” She said simply as she walked past the two other women, heading for the ladder that lead to the cockpit.

Quickly, she climbed it, Havock trailing behind the girl as Aeos rushed back to the lounge to tell everyone that the Yacht was stopping. “Babe, what happened?” Havock called out after Jae as she hurried to catch up to the angry girl. Finally, she caught up as Jae climbed into the Pilot’s seat and pushed a few buttons, then placed a hand on the throttle lever and pulled it all the way down. The sound of the engines stopping rang throughout the yacht as she reach up to the left of her and pressed the button that activated the intercom that went throughout the entire ship.

“Jae… What’s going on…?” Havock tried to get the answer out of her again, but again her attempt failed.

The angry Jaenna took a deep breath and began to speak. “Attention RAIDERS. Our trip to the glorioud gambling ship Night Sky Marverlous will be postponed until further notice. Please gather in the lounge and I will explain the situation.”

"Jae. Tell me what happened. Please?" Havock tried again.

"You'll find out along with the others." She said simply and curtly as she passed Havock to climb down the ladder and back into the main corridor.

Havock took a deep breath and let it out with a sigh. "She better not be plotting to kill anyone." The SL moved quickly after her lover, hoping to get to the Lounge before Jae went off on anyone with her cybernetic fist.

- - - -

"Someone killed my Slicer Bot, Jeffery" Jaenna was saying just as Havock came up behind her. She looked down at Jae's right fist and noticed that the artificial skin was peeled back from the majority of the knuckles, revealing the silver and dark gray of the steel cybernetics beneath.

Havock moved out from bheind Jae and took a seat on one of the many chairs scattered about the lounge. Everyone was present now. Bright, Aeos, Grahim, Karash, Demented, Vee, Njall and now finally herself. She sighed again, watching as Vee held back a chortle as he took a puff of his lungblaster. She slapped a palm to her forehead. Thinking to herself, 'Don't say anything stupid, Vee. She'll kill if it means avenging Jeffery.'

"You named the thing... Jeffery. JEFFERY? Really, Serg? You couldn't come up with anything better?" He chuckled and took another puff of his lungblaster, only to have the lit end of it blown off by a bullet that flew past his face and hit the wall next to him. His eyes were wide as he looked over to Jae, who was holding her DC-15, aimed right at him. "Woah, woah, Serg. Come on. It's a nice name. Really it is."

'I told youuuu.' Havock chuckled in her mind, looking at the destroyed half of the lungblaster that was still hanging in Vee's lips.

"Good boy." Jae said quietly as she holstered her DC-15 back at her waist and turned to the rest of the squad. "As I was saying. Jeffery was killed. I built that bot when I was on Coruscant years ago. Only a few weeks ago did I get him back into working order so that I could bring him along with me on missions. Now, I go into my room to find his oil and parts strewn about the walls and floor of my room." She took a few moments to look at every single one of the troopers before her, including Havock. "We aren't going ANYWHERE until we find out who killed Jeffery. Ya got it?"

Everyone slowly nodded, all still staring at her with wide eyes and a hint of fear in their expressions. It was going to be a long night.

OOC:

ALRIGHT! Someone on the ship killed Jeffery, Jae's self-built Sliver Bot. She loved Jeffery, every single bolt and rivet of him. But now he is dead, and she wants to know who done it. There is evidence (which I will list out in a few moments) that you will need to place together to find out who killed Jeffery.

Here is a list of the people on the ship:

Jaenna
Havock
Dec
Njall
Karash
Grahim
Bright
Demented
James - Co Pilot
Roxx - Engineer
Lillian - Chef

Here is the evidence that you will find in Jae's room:

A partial hand print in Jeffery's oil on Jae's bed (This evidence can only be analyzed by me)
A multitude of other hand prints about Jae's room (This evidence can only be analyzed by me)
Partial prints of a size 8 shoe in Jeffery's oil (Can only be analyzed by me)

That is the only hard evidence that can be found. There will be more explained about other bits of evidence.

Here is the deal though. Everyone can find and examine different hand prints and shoe prints, but they can only be proven as to who's they are in my posts. I have PMed the person I have chosen for the murderer. He/She will be posting their own bits of evidence throughout the story. You may figure out who it is through reading, bu that doesn't mean your character knows. =] So lets not meta play.

This isn't meant to be difficult, but fun. So have it.
