Zairon draws on the force angered that he kicked Athena again and attempts to shove Ire across the throne room before he continues.
"Max Rebo? Actually I have no idea who you are. Why don't you tell us your real name?" Zairon ask. "We aren't infected with defiance. Simply put we are remaining loyal to Lord Ire. Lord Ire was a hero and a man we all respected. You sir, are not Lord Ire. So I ask again. Who are you?"

Luke forces Athena to her feet, and moves her to the side of the Throne Room. "Stay here and stay down," he tells her. From here, she should be out of the way of anything that erupts between Ire and Zairon. Luke takes his lightsaber from his belt, but does not ignite it. He continues to watch.

MCD get hit with Zairon's Force push and is sent flying across the room. Tuulk immediately steps in and places a hand across Zairon's chest and a hand holding "Stop!"
MCD lands with a sickening thud against the steps to his throne but quickly rebounds and begins to stomp his way back towards Zairon. "I am Lord Ire, I am the Executor of the Empire, and I order someone to arrest this man or so help me all of you will be tried for treason!"
"Shut it, whoever you are." Tuulk replies to MCD. "Zairon, what does he mean that Athena is the woman in the worker's district.
"Exactly what I mean you blue skinned fool!" MCD replies before Zairon can answer. "She was the one who insighted the riot, she's the woman the that was killed when the stormtroopers entered the sqare!"
Tuulk looks to Zairon with a slight face of concern. "Is this true, Zairon?"

Mathis walks in confused. He sees MCD on the floor not knowing what is going on he moves quickly putting his blade to Tuulk's throat

Zairon took a breath to calm himself after seeing Luke step up to help Athena.
"Somewhat." Zairon says with a nod. "As you know I was under orders after Cook's betrayal to investigate various officers and look for suspected treason. I had suspected the commander and had asked Lady Athena to follow them and keep an eye on them in case I was right." Zairon stated. "She was disguised as a civilian when the Sarge started arresting people and rounding them up. She stepped forward to stop them hoping to try peace since she was disguised as a citizen. They turned around and shot her according to the reports."
Zairon shrugged, "Her intent and mission was NOT to start a riot. She's still in training so it was simply a mistake on her part. Ordering her to start a riot would be of no use. Why would I do that?" He asked. "She got shot and a riot started. As such she changed out of her disguise and stopped it to make up for the mistake."
Zairon shook his head and looked at the crazy impostor. "Please. Insighted a riot. She STOPPED a riot. Why would she insight something, just to stop it a few minutes later?"
"However, we can deal with that later. Right now the importance is to deal with this impostor." Zairon tapped his lightsaber, "Alright, here is how this is going to work. You wish to prove you are Ire?" Zairon asked, "Take off your shirt."
Just as he said this he heard a voice behind him and spun to see Mathias with a knife to Tuulk's throat. "It's not Ire, Mathias. He's an impostor. Remove your knife from the Grand Admiral's throat or I'll snap your neck." He said holding up his hand and pointing it at Mathias. "He is a member of High Command and an threat towards his life will be dealt with. Remove that knife and I'll prove he is not Ire. Keep that knife there and you won't like what happens."

"Great," Luke thinks, "another hostage. What are they putting in the water around here?"
"Son," says Luke, " Mathias, stop and think a minute." He enhances his words through the Force. "We can talk about this and figure everything out. There is no need for violence." Luke stretches out with the Force to try and put his knife arm in Force stasis, making it impossible to use the weapon.

"MATHIAS! I was beginning to wonder if I was going to see you again." MCD says as he sees a knife to Tuulk's throat. Giggling, MCD looks at Mathias and points to Zairon. "If there's anyone you should have that blade too, its Zairon. He's trying to set me up..."
"Frak you Zairon, you are in no position to tell me to do anything..." MCD says as he then looks at Zairon as his eyes go narrow with anger. "...I bet you falsified those orders to the stormtrooper commander didn't you?"
Tuulk, with the knife to his throat, holds still and tries to convince Mathias not to act hastily. "Mathias, listen to me, put the knife down and you will discover the truth of all this... I sware to you. Have I ever lied to you?"
"Let go of Tuulk," MCD tells Mathias, "and take that little piece of poodoo into custody now!"

Mathis freezes and looks at MCD.
"Well Sir I would love to but someone I am assuming a Jedi has frozen my blade."
He growls as his eyes flicker around.
"Let the blade go and I will drop it, but know this I am not afraid of you Zairon. If there is not a good reason for these actions it is my job to take you in."
His dark eyes look at Zairon and then back to Tuulk.
"Speak for, no you have not lied to me. Do not do so now."
His voice is respectful.

"I have a good reason for this trust me." He says to Mathias. "You are of everyone the most loyal to Lord Ire. I do this because I share that same loyalty. You know how much honor means to me. Just like you I have sworn loyalty to Lord Ire."
Zairon turns and looks at MCD and laughs, "I falsified those orders?" He says with a smirk. "Please, I don't have high enough clearance to give orders for you."
Zairon frowns, "Now stop avoiding our accusations. You are an impostor of the good Lord Ire. I don't know who you are, but you mocked Lord Ire on his death bed at Ziost and took his place pretending to be him." Zairon says, "And I have proof that the High Command has seen. Which is why by order of High Command you are to stand down and submit to arrest."
Zairon smirked and tapped his lightsaber, "Or you can resist. I'd love to see that." He looks at Mathias. "If I showed you that this person before you is a fake who mocked Lord Ire on his death bed and allowed him to die, what would you do?"

Luke releases the Force stasis on Mathias. He shifts his attention to Lord Ire and Zairon. "Why not remove your shirt and put to rest once and for all whether you are an impostor or not," says Luke.

"Frak you Jedi, you got away with murder when your knight killed stormtroopers for asking for ID." MCD says annoyed at the Jedi master. "Shut the frak up or leave, those are your options."
MCD then turns his attention to Mathias and pleads with his loyal guardsman. "Mathias, don't listen to them, they are trying to poison everyone against me. You have to believe me, I'm your master!"

Mathis arm drops and he moves over to Zairon.
"You better have One hundred percent proof." His voice is ice cold.
He is not sure what to think Tullk has never lied to him ever. His eyes look at MCD hoping he is telling the truth and that he is Ire. His fingers trace the blade as he fights his rage.

"I wouldn't attack the true Lord Ire. I'm a knight and am just as loyal as you." He says as he reaches into his pouch and takes out the data disk. He places it in a small projector and a hologram pops up of what is displayed.
The disk shows Paymon fighting Lord Ire. The duel is intense and appears close. At one point Ire is stabbed in the chest, however he succeeds at killing Paymon. Ire, however, soon joins Paymon in death. He collapses to the ground and appears to be dying from his wounds.
However, oddly enough a third figure appears. The figure seems to be dancing and acting very childish and crazy. He is standing over Ire's body and waits until Ire dies. Once Ire dies, he takes Ire's things. Zairon then ends the recording.
"As you see, this impostor watched our Lord Ire die. He robbed and defiled our Lord's body. And now he tries to take his throne and deceive us all by pretending to be the good Lord Ire." Zairon points at MCD, "You disgrace a fallen hero."
Suddenly a message is sent to Grand Admiral Tuulk from Sir Naver up in space.
Considering what is going on down there I apologize for messaging you. But Paymon is back...

Luke watches the events unfold on the holovid. It seems to be proof of Zairon's claims. "Zairon, what proof do you have that this holovid is accurate and not faked?" asks Luke. He asks the question not only to get an answer, but to see the reaction of Lord Ire.

"THAT VIDEO IS FAKE!" MCD yells loudly. "It's just another false piece of evidence trying to discredit me and ruin all that I've worked so hard to build."
"That video is real in its entirety." A very familiar sounding voice says from the back of the room. Standing there in all his past glory is a very familiar sight; black robes with red trim, face obscured in shadow, glowing eyes that scream evil... the real Ire was now in attendance. MCD can't deny it now and his eyes tell the whole room that he's in deep poodoo.
"Holy frak!" MCD exclaims. "What in the nine Corellian hells are you doing here, shouldn't you be getting poked in the arse by some pitchfork wielding demon right now?"
Ire laughs evily at the shocked MCD. "You don't think you were the only clone I ever made did you? You really are stupid MCD, how did you ever think you'd get away with such a ruse?"
"What the frak is going on here?" Tuulk asks, he's completely lost at the moment.
"Remember bay 33K, Tuulk?" Ire begins to explain. "Remember that little accident that got loose and we couldn't catch?"
"You mean...?" Tuulk says to Ire.
"Yes, that is the Clone that escaped." Ire divuldges to Tuulk, who is having a hard time retaining his sanity at the moment. Even the Regent and Council of Moffs are at a loss for words. Looking back up at MCD, who is speechless himself, Ire continues to speak. "Lucky for me, when I pick a fresh mind to see to things I'm right about them. There is a reason I picked Zairon to be my first among the Imperial Knights."
