Opening the doors to the hall way, she turns behind her and looks at Ire, "Ire you are quite safe with us. You are not the hunted but the hunter." Kal walks ahead and gets the turbo lift ready for them. Looking up at Neph, she frowns a little. "Something doesn't seem right here Neph. You know I trust the RGE as far as I can throw them."
She walks into the turbo lift and looks at Kal. They wait for the others.

*steps into the turbo lift and looks at Grainne.*
If they swerve us they will wish they had never been born.

Looking up, Grainne nods. "I don't care about the money, it is the safety of the people on this planet I worry about!" Rocking back and forth on the balls of her feet, she places her hands behind her. Neph and Grain'ika, tthere is a reason why I made sure there was extra security everywhere. You need to remember, who trained Jango on security?" Kal looks forward then to where Ire is.

He tries to get up, but everything seems so hard to do. His limit had been reached, and if it were not for that assassin that had been firing at him from afar, he may have been able to preserve what energy he had left in him, to possibly get away. But no more for him. What may be coming his way, he was unsure of. He could feel the dark side of the force looming near. Two individuals, and then there was another, one more familiar to him.
He looked for his lightsaber, but that was gone. He was now weaponless, and defenseless to do anything. He could try to do one last maneuver, or one last act of defense, but that would probably kill him. He then started to clench his fists, as he started to think if he should do something, or find out what the Empire had in store for him. He knew that he could not reason with anyone, he had been responsible for several deaths, but that was because he was not only ordered to do so, but because that was his intent.
His two men that had been with him for so long were now missing in action and were presumed dead. His wife, Glow aka Scylla, was nowhere to be found, and neither was his son Tristan. Was this the end for him? Was this checkmate? No, it couldn't be... He is Markon Starkiller, Sith Lord, and one that could have single handedly taken over the galaxy, if only a few things had just gone the way he wanted things to.
The galaxy... How that was once his goal, and stil is, but for now, that plan is to be put on hold. Glow, and Tristan... his family. Where are they, where could they be? Are they safe? He kept thinking that to himself, not being able to sense them, or where they are at. The only thing he could do at this point, was wait for the inevitable, and see what the force had in store for him...
He layed there, clutching his hand, trying to get up.

As he waited for the others, Zairon tiredly walked over to Starkiller until he was near him and said softly. "You were a powerful opponent. You have my respect, name a request, within reason, and it will be fulfilled." Zairon tells the man.

As Ire steps on the turbolift, he can't help but hear Neph speak, his tone makes it clear he has some kind of grudge against Starkiller. Maybe there was something Ire could do to smooth over the dark stranger's bloodlust for Starkiller. "I didn't know you hated Starkiller that much Neph, I would be glad to give you the honor of flipping the switch at his execution if he is found guilty."
As Ire and the others continue their trip, Saber Squad moves in and Vex approaches the Executor as he stands proud over his defeated foe. "Sir, Saber Squad ready for duty. Should we freeze him for transport now?" Vex says holding up his carbonite rifle and then points it at Starkiller.

He looks up at Zairon and smirks.
"The only thing that I want you to do for me, is for you and the Empire to die. I will not seek pity from you, nor do I even seek any honor from you, since you clearly do not have any. Where I come from, if you wanted someone captured or taken out, you do it yourself, and not rely on others to do so. You and your pathetic Empire are nothing but cowards... You hide behind your technology, and your army. A TRUE Sith, would not have to hide behind his army, like you do. You are not a Sith, nor are you even a Jedi. I sense much confusion within you, but I also sense that you are a coward, who hides behind others and takes orders like a Bantha in the Tatooine Desert. If you had any honor, then you would help me escape, so that we can fight again, but I do not see you doing so. So no, there is nothing that you can do for me, nothing at all..."
As he said his last few words, he then hears what the soldier said, about freezing him. He then shakes his head, and tries hard to call upon the force, but he can't as his body is both damaged and drained. There is nothing left for him to do now... All he can do is just think about his wife, his family, and know that as long as they are safe, then his job is done. He has led a good life, one as a Jedi, and as a Sith. If this is the end, then he knew that it cannot be far.
So full of pride, he then starts to try to stand up. His hands clutching themselves, his knees shaking furiously, he struggles to get back onto his feet...

Walking with Ire, Neph, and Kal, Grainne stands next to the one called Vex. Taking the barrel of the gun away from Sk's face, she crouches down next to him and whispers. "You had many chances to redeem yourself. You attempted to elude capture, you now have your assets frozen, and you tried to kill me and my unborn daughter. I have no feelings about this Starkiller, but allow me to tell you something. The vod NEVER forget and should you some how survive this, you will still be dead in my eyes. Standing with the aid of Kal's hand, she cups her unborn daughter and steps away from the body. Kal and the six troops that are left flank her sides, guarding her just in case.

He then looks to Grainne, and the others that have come to see him on the ground and smirks at her words.
"I knew that it was your presence that I felt... A Jedi being a Mandalore... Pfft!! That's a laugh in it's own wierd way... As for me being dead in your eyes, why don't you just go ahead and pull the trigger. I know that you want to do it... You and your kind are a disease to this galaxy. If I had the opportunity to kill you and your unborn child, then by all means, I will do it again. If I survive this, then know this, that I will not stop hunting your kind, and I will not stop trying to irradicate you and your people from the face of the galaxy. You and your "Vod" can go to hell for all I care. In fact, that is most likely where you will be going..."
He then continues to get to his feet, fighting the temptation to just stay down.

Ire has heard enough, there was nothing this shallow broken shell of a man could do anything to stop what was to happen next. Starkiller was broken, a task to be taken off the list, and decides that now is the time. "Vex, clear the area and freeze him for transport to the Atrocity."
"Yes, my Emperor." Vex says as he turns to the Sabers. "Sabers, clear the area. Quints, get up here." Vex watches as the Sabers begin requesting that everyone back up to allow the Quints to move up and take aim with their large carbonite cannons attached to their left arm. They fire as Starkiller attempts to rise to his feet, all four of the Carbonite cannons go off and shower the area with thick white clouds from the carbonite freezing as it hits the open air.

He grinds his teeth, as he feels the carbonite covering him. Nothing left for him to do at this point. All he can do is think about Glow, and Tristan. With his last words before he is totally encased in carbonite, he looks up at the sky and says as a whisper to himself "Glow, I'm sorry... please forgive me..."
And those were the last words he had to say, and perhaps the last words that he may ever say again, as he was now encased in carbonite.

Shadow raises an eyebrow hearing Zairon mention SK bowing before him. "Hmm, seems that he's bowing to the wrong person there Executor." He grins slightly hearing the repeated shots from the Verpine rifle.
He then turns hearing the turbolift doors open and Ire, Grainne, Neph and Kal exit the lift. He salutes Ire and walks over to them.
Shadow quietly watches as the carbonite begins to freeze Starkiller. He shakes his head when he heard him talk about true Sith. "If you were really a 'true Sith', you wouldn't have been defeated just then." He smirks and nods his head to the Emperor.
He deactivates his lightsaber and walks out of the way so that Vex and the others can finish prepping Starkiller for transport.

Zairon nods to Lord Ire. "Mission accomplished, my lord."

"Executor, you may present the bounty hunters with their reward." Ire tells Zairon before he turns and looks down at Grainne Fett. "Mandalore, your Vod did well, the Empire thanks you for your assistance in this matter."
As Ire stand talking, Vex and the Sabers move in to secure the frozen figure of Starkiller and prep him for transport. Vex gets on the line to the Greyskull and orders it to set down to allow for easy transfer. When the Greyskull does touch down, XP-505 and TK-231 go and secure the maglift to load the frozen Starkiller on board. As the Sabers work, Ire looks over to Shadow and sends him out on ahead.
"Agent Shadow, I will be returning to Carratos aboard the Atrocity, you may leave at anytime. I will wish to speak to you once I return." Ire tells Shadow before looking over at the Executor and ask him about a certain apprentice that was with him over Yavin IV. "Executor, Lt. Milla was listed as being late back from emergency short-term leave, where is my would-be apprentice?"

"Once I complete payment I'll take my TIE Phantom to check up on Lt. Milla." Zairon says with a nod as he starts punching information into his datapad in order to set up payment.
