Post by Admiral Vanstone on Feb 2, 2010 12:45:52 GMT -5
Admiral Vanstone steped out of the escape pod and onto the hangar deck of the Frigate. He looked outside as Cook changed his course and fled to hyperspace. Then he saw the Atrocity.
"Sir, orders from the Fleet Admiral. We are to make a blind jump to hyperspace."
"Then what are you waiting for? Get us out of here immediately!"
"In which direction, sir?"
"Any! Find an opening and take it!"
Moments later, the Frigates took off, leaving the damaged Calamitous behind.
-----
On the Calamitous, the Lieutenant looked at the Knights.
"He is gone."
The eyes of all the bridge crew members were upon the pair of Knights now.
"The Star Destroyer Calamitous surrenders to your superior fleet, but the crew opts not to fight your battles. We are to be taken prisoner instead."

Sir Zairon nodded, "Fair enough. Everyone drop your weapons and step away from your consoles." Zairon said walking up towards the view port and watching the ships flee to hyperspace. "All of you line up in that corner." He said pointing to the corner of the deck. Lady Athena watch them." He said.
As Athena moved them into an easy to guard spot, Zairon walked over to the communications deck.
"Grand Admiral, this is Sir Zairon aboard the Star Destroyer Calamitous." He says sending an open message not carrying who hears since the traitors had fled. "The Star Destroyer Calamitous is under our control. Admiral Vanstone has fled and abandoned his men. However, the ship has surrendered and is under our control. Everyone has been ordered to stand down and await your arrival. I'll remain here until you arrive guarding them."
He then turned and glanced at the computer with a smirk. "Oh and Grand Admiral, might I recommend you bring a slicer?" He said.

*He stands there and begins shaking with rage when he sees the enemy Fleet jump out of the system. He watches as the Ion Cannon bursts hit the Atrocity.*
Coward. Grand Admiral Tuulk is so going to brand you traitors for firing on his ship.
*He then watches as the SD Kadavra successfully retrieves the shuttle that fled the Calamitous.*
Well, at least something went right.
*He turns and hears the communications from Knight Zairon and he grins.*
Excellent, they've captured the ship.
*He walks over to his command chair and activates a comm-line to the Atrocity.*
Grand Admiral Tuulk, this is Inquisitor Camulus. I wanted to inform you that the SD Kadavra has acquired the shuttle that you were wanting captured. Awaiting further orders, sir.

As the shots from the ion cannons strike against the bridge, the concentration of fire disrupts the powerful deflector shields over the bridge and knocks them offline. The fallout from from this causes several bridge stations to spark and smoke.
"Open fire on that little ingrate." Tuulk orders his crew.
"Fire control and targeting is down, Sir. It's going to take a moment to get them back on line."
"Sir, the enemy fleet has just jumped into hyperspace." Comscan reports.
"Cook must have removed the hyperdrive safeties... clever fish." Tuulk concludes as he looks out the viewport at the sea of stars.
"Sir, should we begin analyzing their possible trajectories?" Comscan asks.
"No, we'll catch up to the little slime soon enough." Tuulk says as he goes over to his flickering command station and waits for it to power back up. As he waits, Ensign Ricky calls up to the Grand Admiral.
"Sir, both Inquisitor Camulus and Sir Zairon are reporting in. Zairon reports that Vanstone has escaped and that the crew has surrendered. Camulus has the enemy shuttle on board and is awaiting instruction."
Tuulk looks down at the ships on his now powered tactical station and brings up the Calamitous. Tuulk then has Ricky open a comline to Camulus' ship on a secure frequency. "Inquisitor, send over a detachment to relieve Sir Zairon. Have your troops round up and detain the crew in the Calamitous' main hangar bay. Also send a Tech crew to break into the ship's computers, I want complete access to its mainframe and where that ship has been."
Tuulk closes the comlink and looks down at the tactical station again. This spat with Cook seems to have tried his patience slightly as he fights the urgwe to put his fist through something close by. He hopes he is the one to catch up to the rouge Admiral and his band of traitors but only time will tell.

*Camulus turns hearing the comm-line from Grand Admiral Tuulk. He grins slightly and nods his head.* Not a problem Grand Admiral. I'll get my best team on the job. They should be arriving in System shortly.*The Commscan officer looks up.* My lord. We're detecting a transport shuttle entering the system. It bears the IFF of Captain Trian's shuttle.*Camulus grins and nods his head.* Excellent. Open a channel to him.*The officer nods his head.* Channel's open sir.*Camulus walks over to the console.* Captain Trian. This is Inquisitor Camulus. Welcome to the Yaga Minor System. I have new orders for you and your men Captain. I want you to go to the Star Destroyer Calamitous and relieve the Imperial Knight Zairon and his partner. Also take your tech team. We need to hack into the SD's computer and find out where its been. I'll send you a SITREP of the situation to your datapad. That is all.*Camulus cuts the comm and walks back over to the window and looks at the commandeered SD.*  *Captain Trian sits in his co-pilot's chair of his transport shuttle when he hears the comm-line from Inquisitor Camulus. He grins and nods his head.* It will be done my lord.*He looks at his datapad and sees the information that was sent to him.* Wow, it seems that Fleet Admiral Cook and Admiral Vanstone have went rogue. They even had the audacity to fire upon the Atrocity? What a bunch of mir'osiks.*He chuckles quietly and continues reading the SITREP.* Knight Zairon infiltrated and took over Vanstone's ship? Amazing. Well, let's get to it then. Pilot, head to the Calamitous. We have some relieving to do.*The pilot nods his head and changes course towards the SD.* *After several minutes the shuttle lands in an empty hangar bay that has been prepared for them. Trian stands up and walks to the back of the shuttle. He looks at his troops.* All right men, we're to relieve Sir Zairon and his fellow Knight. We're also to round up the bridge crew as well. No one is to fire upon them unless ordered to. Let's move out.*They all file out of the transport shuttle and into the hangar bay. They move down the passageway towards the turbolifts. They pile into both lifts and ride up to the command deck. Once they arrive, they exit the lift and head down the command passageway and arrive outside the bridge. Captain Trian opens the blastdoor and steps onto the bridge. His troops begin rounding up the bridge crew and Trian approaches Sir Zairon.* I am here to relieve you Sir. I would believe that you are to head back to either the Atrocity or to head to the Athena's Revenge. Not sure exactly which. I've also got a tech team with me and they are now beginning to hack into Vanstone's computer.*He looks towards the console and watches as his tech team begins to do their job.* |

As time passes, Tuulk awaits word from Camulus to see if he is successful in hacking the Calamitous' databanks. He watches the floating ships around the Calamitous and thinks about what the future holds for all the parties involved. Tuulk has no doubts that this chain of events will cause quite a stir in the Senate, it always serves politics well to meddle in High Command affairs when there is lack of any meaningful debate. Tuulk believes enough time has gone by to see if the crews have made progress.
"Camulus, SITREP." Tuulk orders over a comline.

Sir Zairon nodded, "Alright we'll return to our ships then. Good luck with the computers." Zairon says with a nod. Then him and Athena turned and headed back to their TIE Phantoms. Due to the surrender they faced no resistance and once they arrived at their TIE Phantoms, Zairon opened a channel to the Grand Admiral.
"Orders Grand Admiral?" He asked.

*Captain Trian watches as Zairon and Athena leave the bridge and then he walks over to the tech officers and looks at them.*
Report.
*The senior analyst looks up at him.*
Sir, we've been successful in hacking the ship's computer mainframe. Transferring all information to your datapad now sir.
*Trian nods his head.*
Understood. Good work gentlemen.
*He turns and pulls out his datapad and begins to review the information. He then begins laughing.*
I'll be damned. It seems we got the coordinates to Cook's hidden base, as well as his Fleet's IFF signatures.
*He taps the headset he's wearing that links him to Camulus.*
M'lord. Great news. The hacking attempt worked. We have full access to records and everything that was Cook's. We even have the location of his hidden base.
*Back on the Athena's Revenge, Camulus listens intently and grins.*
Very good. Well done Captain. Stand by for further orders.
*Over the commlink, Trian's voice is heard.*
Understood sir. We'll continue uploading information from the ship's computer.
*Camulus nods his head.*
Very well. Camulus out.
*He turns and opens a comm-line to Grand Admiral Tuulk.*
Grand Admiral, this is Inquisitor Camulus. I've good news for you sir. We successfully hacked Vanstone's computer mainframe and have retrieved the coordinates of Cook's hidden base. We're still uploading more information. What is your command next sir?
*He stands there and waits for the Grand Admiral to respond.*

"Sir, we have an in coming message from Sir Zairon requesting orders." Ensign Ricky reports to Tuulk. Tuulk mutes to comline to Camulus and relays Zairons orders through Ricky.
"Have him board the Athena's Revenge and stay with Lord Camulus. As soon as we get the information we seek from the Calamitous' databanks, he will leave with the Inquisitor to our next position."
"Yes, Sir. Right away." Ricky reports as he sends a coded message to Zairon's ship with his orders. As Ricky does this, Tuulk receives word from Camulus as to the Tech crew's success aboard the Calamitous. Tuulk opens a channel as he knows what to do next.
"Begin having the crews slave rig the maneuvering and navigation systems and plot a course for Cooks base. We're going to 'return' his ship and crew to him." Tuulk says giving a subtle hint as to what is in store for Cook and his subordinate. Soon. Ricky looks up at Tuulk and calls him over.
"Sir, orders from High Command. Your presence is requested on Carratos." Ricky relays to his commander.
"Slight change in plans, Inquisitor. You and Sir Zairon will have to enjoy the fire works by yourselves. If you mange to capture the traitors there will be a substancial reward for the both of you. Tuulk out." He says as he kills the comline and orders the Atrocity to jump back to Carratos.

Sir Zairon listens to his orders and nods. "Alright Lady Athena, we're heading to...oh irony mind telling me why you want revenge?" He teases.
"What do you mean?" She ask confused as she boards her TIE Phantom.
"Apparently we're to report to the Inquisitor's ship 'Athena's Revenge.'" Zairon says reading the orders. "The Inquisitor eh, I've yet to meet him. How about you?"
Athena shrugs, "It's not like my name is that rare. And I've not met him either, sir." She says as she begins powering her TIE Phantom.
"Eh, I know it's not. But it is still pretty funny." He said as he powered up his own TIE Phantom. Once the two were ready to go they departed the captured Star Destroyer and headed towards Athena's Revenge. "Guess we'll get to meet this new Inquisitor soon. See what information you can get." He says as he begins sending the security clearances and such to board the shuttle.
While Zairon works on getting the two clearance to land, Lady Athena quickly reads what she can find in the RGE records and begins to try and sum up what she can. "Alright...looks like he's a sith."
"Ugh.." Zairon mumbled as he continued sending codes.
"Goes by the name Camulus." She says reading it. "Used to be married to an Empress Athena if this bio I found is correct. That would explain the ship's name."
"When did you become an empress? Shoot I've been adressing you all wrong, milady." Zairon teases.
"You gonna listen or you gonna joke?" She says with a sigh.
"Sorry, Empress." He says with a smirk.
"Wow...there really isn't that much information on him, sir." She says surprised. "How did he get to be such a rank when so little is known...He has some connection to a Nick of the Jedi Order. Other than that it's very vague." She says surprised, "I got a few like physical characteristics but other than knowing he's a dark side user, an Inquisitor, and right now our boss I can't tell you much." She says.
"Well...guess we will just have to find out when we meet him." Zairon says with a frown. "Alright we got clearance let's land." He says as he moves his TIE Phantom into the hangar bay.
Once the two have powered down their TIE Phantoms, they jump out of their TIE Phantoms. "Guess we should head to the bridge. It's most likely where we'll meet him." Zairon says as the two leave the hangar and head towards the bridge.
Once they arrive on the bridge they look around. "Sir Zairon and Lady Athena, Imperial Knights, reporting as ordered." Zairon says as he enters.

*Camulus listens to his orders and nods his head.*
Understood sir. I'll have Captain Trian and his men set things up. Then we'll get underway.
*He then opens up a comm-line to the Calamitous.*
Trian, this is Camulus. I want you and your men to rig the maneuvering and navigation systems. We're going to head to Cook's secret base.
*Over the comm, Trian's voice is heard.*
Understood m'lord. Working on it now.
*Camulus nods his head and turns off the comm just as two Imperial Knights arrive on the Bridge. He turns to look at them.*
Ah, you must be Sir Zairon and Lady Athena. Welcome aboard. I take it you both know what we're about to go do?

"I assume we are to head to wherever the traitor's main base is and play with them." Zairon said. "Our orders still to arrest or is it a battlefield now?" Zairon asked.

Camulus regarded Zairon with a slight grin. "Of course we're going after Vanstone and Cook. We'll apprehend them if we can, however, if they resist..." He chuckled softly. "After all, we do have to give Vanstone back his precious Star Destroyer." He said quietly, his eyes glowing a faint reddish color.
He looked at his tactical officer. "Lieutenant, have we received the coordinates from Captain Trian?" He asked and raised an eyebrow. The young lieutenant nodded his head. "Yes Inquisitor, we have. All ships have the coordinates and are standing by for your orders my lord." Camulus grinned darkly. "Very well Lieutenant." He looked over at Zairon and Athena. "Shall we go play?" He smiled and sat down in his command chair. He tapped the communications console on his chair and cleared his throat. "Attention, Death Hammer Fleet. This is Imperial Inquisitor Camulus. I want to inform everyone that we may possibly be entering into a battle once we emerge from Hyperspace. Everyone be prepared. Now, let's go show these shol'va's (traitors) what it means to be an Imperial. All ships prepare to make the jump into hyperspace to the set coordinates on my command. 3, 2, 1. Engage hyperdrives."
One by one all ships of the Imperial Death Hammer Fleet, including Vanstone's Destroyer, make the jump into Hyperspace enroute to the hidden world of Msst.

Zairon looked out the viewport and watched the blue tunnel of hyperspace. Soon the traitors would be captured. They wouldn't escape his and Athena's grasp again. His Knight's honor depended on it.

The Imperial Death Hammer Fleet, the Atrocity and the rogue RGE Fleet emerge from hyperspace above the world of Yaga Minor. Camulus ascertains the situation and smiles slightly seeing that no incident had occured on the transit through hyperspace. He notices that his Fleet continues to surround the rogue fleet and he leans back in his chair and waits for further orders from the Fleet Admiral.
