Mart and Alas 'manned' the gun emplacements and fearfully tracked the approach of the ever closing Imperial vessels. '****! they'll be in range soon, I reckon we've got less than a minute to either get the hell out of here or hope they run out of fuel' Roms voice kicks in over the comm 'erm, guys, I think we've got as bit of a problem, I'm picking up a huge hyperspace signature right ahead of us, it can be one of 2 things'
Meanwhile back on the planet Tattoine in the City of Amber Ridge a frantic Devon was pacing up and down the main room of the guildhall "where's my Jess I want my Jess back" muttered Devon very frequently whilst Gydion was doing her best to comfort her.
In another room Einia had just picked up the call from Marrt he answered the call in his normal silly manner "on my way sausage" he went to speak to Gydion to update him on the situation then sped accross to the shuttleport to get quickly to the starport where his ship was docked.
He met Ivanhoe wondering around by the bank told him what was occuring and Ivan was more than willing to join in on the adventure soon the two were in their ships on plotting the co-ords for a hyperspace jump.
The void ahead of the ship coalesced into the unmistakable form of a Imperial Star Destroyer. 'I think the phrase rhymes with clucking bell' muttered Rom An explosion rocked the freighter and tie fighter debris flew past the c0ckpit viewports. 'thats all the fighter gone and we've crippled one of the gunboats!!' yelled Mart excitedly 'we should be clear to get out of here in.... aww crap' dismay registered on his features as he took in the sight of the hulking ship before them. 'punch it Rom, quick!' 'No!' interjected Alas 'Jess is on board that ship, I can feel him' 'well I hate to be a party pooper Alas, but I think we should leave before..' The ship rocking intterupted Roms flow '.. before we get locked on a tracotr beam, like this one, dammit' 'ok people looks like were gonna get arrested.. again'
Starkset thought this turn of event's was actually very fortunate "if they had just blow us up then of course all hope would be gone, but instead they give us an open invitation to get Jess back and kill the imperial scum at the same time" he said with a huge grin on his face.
Mart was still grumbling in the corner "Oh it's fine for all you jedi's u can run and cloack what am I supposed to do huh"
"Decimate there rank's with your huge gun from afar, of course" Alas said with a slightly sarcastic tone in her voice, "though we are very few against a veritable army that can be stored in these damn star destroyer's" Rom chipped in "plus what about Jibblett?"
"I can stay and keep us both cloacked I dont think i'm in such a great shape to fight but I can manage that" Audie said quitely still in pain!
The ship shudder again as in turn Pen, Waro and Ivan docked, boarded and set thier ships home on autopilot. This may not be the most well thoguht out rescue plan in history, but it was sure gonna be the fun.
Audie hobbled over to the bacta tank and prepared to cloak himself and it. Rom changed into civilian clothing and mart followed suit; everyone else hid in the smuggler bays of the ship.
'this plan.. what is it?' asked Mart 'simple mate', said Stark,' we let rom and you get arrested, let them search the ship, then we come out of hiding and rescue everyone!'
It will be just like what that ponce skywalker was supposed to have done on the death star, only better!
'great!' replied mart, rolling his eyes.
The ship touched down with a bump in the hangar bay of the Interdicting vessel and everyone settled in to see how the 'plan' turned out.
Hidden in the smuggler bay's the group heard the stormtrooper's stomping up entrance of the ship "You there hands where we can see them" the lead trooper called to Rom and Mart
"Were just trader's taking good's from Dathomir to Tatto...." ooompf Mart's sentence was cut short by a blow to the stomache from a rather zealous trooper, Rom jumped to aid Mart but was also subsequently dealt a blow to the head.
The trooper's binded them and led them off the ship leaving a couple of trooper's there on guard untill the search team arrived.
"I'm going up top to scout out the enemy's position's you lot wait here i'll be back asap" said Pen brimming with confidence as he went into stealth and slipped out of one of the smuggling bay's
did Rom leave the egine running? asked Alas No, why? replied stark I swear I can hear the engine on tick over Stark poked his head out of the bay.. ah shiiite, Audies fallen asleep. Lets get Jibb hidden till he recovers enough to be useful and wake up the blue haired fool. Startled awake by a swift slap to the head, Audie sat up sharply. Ow! I was dreaming, I saw Jess, I know where he is, but tis gonna be a pain getting there.
Pen walked very slowly making a mental note of Squad placement's and patrol's he managed to sneak into a command room and discovered some very usefull information finding first the prison block Rom and Mart was being escorted to then also a mention of a very special human cargo "must be jess" Pen thought to himself!
Pen commed into his comrade's still aboard the ship "Im gonna cause a distraction now, head out the ship run to the right and up that corridor the first room on the left is empty I will meet you there in five Pen out"
"A distraction" Alas said out loud
KABOOOOOOOOOOM
"nice distraction" said Stark as he burst out laughing
And nobody (ALAS!!!!) can end the story! It must be a continuing story.
Unfourtunatly Starkset was killed in the blast he thought that everyone else had gone with him but within second's his link with the force brought his spirit back to this world he saw that while he had died the rest were ready to continue there quest...
Without warning Starkie hears a familiar voice through his headset, "back" says Waro, muttering curses about "2 years", "modified scorchers" and "drop rates".
Noticing his ship now bumble-beeing uncontrollably and surrounded by the wreckage of a once proud star destroyer, Waro scans the surrounding deep space for signs of life ...
Picking through the wreckage of the Star Destroyer Zach manages to salvage some very nice loot and begins a game of chance with the rest of the guild to see who shall benefit from the booty. He inevitabley hands everything over to Dod and Pen who rub their hands together in sinister glee, muttering something about loaded dice.

to his supprise waro find signs of life and rescues the rescue team all execpt starky who now moves around as a blue spirit being waiting to be reincarnated. finally landing on tatooine after a good few years of drifing around in space. They notice that things are not quite as they left em, when they left.
Zach emerges from the shadows to confront the guild
"You!" cried Dodgar. You were the one who salvaged all that good stuff from the crashed ship.
"Yes" He replied. "Although many of you didn't know, I've always been here, in the shadows, watching over you all (my precious). But now I must reveal myself and reveal your destiny."
A threat, greated than the Sith, is coming, and will obliterate all in it's path. There is no way to keep it back, and it brings nothing but darkness. You have already met it's messenger.
"Menis?" breathed Jibblet.
Yes. You have all heard of sightings of the one you though had been expelled forever. Menis is returning, but she is only the voice of the evil that is approaching. There is no reasoning with this new darkness. No compromise. We must all leave this place we call home, and travel somewhere so that we can never be found. Obliterated. For we cannot stand in the way of.....
The Dread Lords of Soe
To Your Ships! Salvage what you can! Prepare to repel the advanced scout party to give us time to evacuate! We must send our own Agents to discover new, unknown pathways to our new future! This is our darkest hour, and only the bravest spirits will survive!
And with that the legendary Kindred Spirits packed up everything they owned and flew off to a galaxy far far away. They settled on a small, dusty rock known as Lok in the galaxy of Europe-Farstar and attempted to rebuild their once great city. What future awaited this motley band of rebels? Only time would tell.
