172. Sith Saga: Proving Grounds - Raezyr

Raezyr woke up the next morning to his comm beeping. He checked the chrono on the stand next to his bed. It was 0700 hours already. He switched on the comm.

"Go ahead."

"This is Golar. Please have your team at headquarters by 1000. We have something we'd like you do."

"We'll be there... Raezyr out."

He crawled out of bed, and put his armor on as he sent a thought out to his fellow Sith.

"Trych, Tyr, Anya. We have job. Get ready to move out," he informed them.

He packed his bag and set it by the door. His three companions arrived shortly.

"What's up?" Tyr asked, plopping down into a chair. Trychon leaned against the wall and crossed his arms, while Anya stood just inside the door, refusing to look at Raezyr.

"Golar commed me this morning. They have some sort of job they'd like us to do. I figured we could get some breakfast and then be at HQ by 1000."

"Let's go. I'm starved," Trych commented.

"Anya, where do you want to eat?" Tyr asked.

"Uh, it really doesn't matter," she mumbled.

They decided on a restaurant they had noticed the night before. Trych, Tyr and Raez talked among themselves discussing what the mission might be. Finally, Raezyr turned to Anya, who had been absently picking at her food.

"What's your problem?"

She looked at him incredulously. "You can't be serious."

"Why not?" he asked seriously.

"Well, last night some asshole slammed me into a wall," she said flatly.

"I wouldn't stand for that kind of treatment, if I were you," Raezyr said, stuffing the last bite of food into his mouth.

They all just looked at him as he pushed his chair away from the table and stood up. "Well, we better get going."

They watched for a moment as he walked away. "You guys realize he's a crazy man, right," she said to Trych and Tyr.

Trych chuckled as he stood up, "That may be, but trust me when I say that we're lucky to have him on our side."

The sat around the table in Shado Golar's office.

"We have a business partner who's willing to pay top dollar to get their hands on a used TL-1200 Suwantek military transport. It was recently refurbished and sold to a private party at auction at the Bilbringi Shipyards. It's currently located in the Sistooine system at Telti.

"We have a team which will.... aquire it and take it to the 3rd moon of Ithor in the Ottega system where our buyer will pick it up and take it to the smuggler's moon of Nar Shaddaa.

"You four will accompany that team to Telti for some extra security. Your abilities should come in quite handy. Be at the Dargalan Spaceport, bay 27 at noon. Do not be late.

"The team leader is a human named Sand Iago. He's an ex-Republic Commando, and quite capable. He will be in charge of every aspect of the job once you leave Coruscant."

When he finished he, he turned to his computer console and busied himself, a clear dismissal.

They returned to their quarters to finsh getting ready for their mission.

  1. Ok, gentlemen, I'm caught up... past this point, actually, as far as you've gotten on the Forum.

    I'm excited that you're writing, and that you've found an outlet... actually I'm kind of jealous.

    And even though this isn't really my thing, I find myself sucked in by your story.

    So now here it is... you're not just playing for yourselves, you've got an audience now. Keep me entertained ;)
