Amid the endless sand of the Dune Sea, stands a single shanty type Shack. There's a security camera on each corner of the Shack. The base is only accessible by members of the organization. To gain entry, one must provide a valid retinal ID, blood sample, and pass code. Once you step inside the door instantly seals, and tightly secures. One should be warned, that there are blast cannons and vaporizers hidden in the shanty's walls. These activate with any failed attempt to open the door, or with any tampering. There is a two second window of escape.
Once inside there's a small room, holding simple bantha leather sofa and chair. Directly across from the entrance is a small closet door. Stepping inside the door, there's revealed a small panel. The panel requires a blood sample, and pass code. Once completed, a lift emerges and a door opens. Once the lift has a level selected, the closet and lift doors seal, and you begin your descent into the earth.
Upon reaching the bottom, you find yourself in an oh so inviting corridor, with blast turrets, vaporizers, deadly spikes, and mines. This hall designed to catch any undesirables who may magically breech the other measures. DNA detection is the measure used to determine whether or not one should live past this hall.
As you exit this long corridor, you enter a great room, full of furnishings; lush couches and chairs, a bar. Glancing around you can see that there are several other rooms in the area. There is a well equipped kitchen, a training room, a pool and spa area, and quarters for every member. The quarters are lavishly decorated with anything one could ever want, and come complete with their own refresher, with any and every accomodation one could want.
This is the home of the Crimson Blade... lead by Lord Menthu and Lady Morrigna. This group has their own agenda, and only those involved need to know... until their next victim...err mission arises.
(If you have an interest in joining this group, please PM Lyra Amon.)

*Kite's Miy'til starfighter approaches the base quickly, and he smiles at the view. He remembers this run by heart, loving every turn and sight, despite the monotony. It is prbably one of the dearest places to him. He has a lot of memories in the base, and he is about to make new ones, he is sure. He smirks as he comes up to the small shack and lands near it. He walks up to the door and provides the retinal scan, and the blood sample, and then enters the pass code transmitted by dear Morrigna. He smiles as the base allows him entrance and he enters the sequence again once inside. He smiles as the dear lift raises to greet him, and he steps on before sinking into the depths of the base once again.
He steps through the security corridor, stroking one of the cannons on his way past, and enters the door to the inviting scene infront of him. He steps close to one of the couches and puts a hand on it and jumping over the back, laying himself out on it and smiling. He speaks, reisisting the urge to yell.*
Oh honey, I'm home! Whats for dinner?

Having sensed the approaching presence ever since it had hit orbit, Lyra knows it must be Kite, no one else knew their location; at least not that she hadn't met. Pulling her hair up, and dressing in a comfortable pair of work out pants and a tank top; she slips on a pair of comfy flats, and heads out into the great room. Seeing a youngish man sitting on a couch, she nods to him.
"Hello, I'm Lyra... I'm assuming that you're Kite?"
She says, taking a seat, and pulling her knees up into her chest in one of the chairs across from him.

*Kite smiles at the woman who came out and greeted him, and nods. He looks her over and she is not unattractive by any means. Knowing Morri, thats exactly what she'd pick, though this Lyra must be powerful as well. Morri would never loose a weakling to the world, but, Kite thinks, if she is too weak, she will be cut down. Especially among the group to gather.
He looks into her eyes for a moment, and then nods*
Yes, I am, Lyra. Where is my dear sister, if you dont mind me asking? I have a strong desire to see her, though I understand if she is not around. How long have you been her apprentice?

Lyra glances up and down Kite's person, knowing he must be special for Morri to ask him back, and powerful for her to consider him a brother. As his eyes meet her's, her glowing eyes peer into his, almost as if peeking into his very soul. Hearing his inquiry, she shrugs.
"Morri and her husband are out in deep space, they're on a personal mission. I'm here, as is their daughter Alexia; not to mention her nanny, Adela. Someone recently pursued Alexia as a target, and you know just how protective they are... so they asked me to keep watch over her and Adela. Morri has been my master for several years now... I only recently attained the title of Master of the darkness... hence my new title of "Mistress of the Crimson Blade." I've learned much from your sister... "

*Kite nods slightly, then covers the right side of his face with his hand, thinking. This was a bad sign, them getting targeted while in hiding. Oh well, they are more than good enough to take care of themselves. Though, it would be great to see them again sometime soon. They'll be back, there is always time enough. He puts his hand down and returns his thoughts to Lyra.*
Well, that is never good. I'll have to see Alexia while im here, I haven't seen her in a while.
A few years, eh? Well, that should be more than enough. Mistress of the Crimson Blade? Hmmm, seems that she switched up the ranking system. Master of the Darkness? Even better. Points out that you are better than most fools running around with the Sith Lord title. What have you learned from Morrigna?

Lyra chuckles.
"Alexia is very much her parent's child. I can see so much of Morrigna and Menthu in her. The ranking system? It's really not all that different than it was before... it's simply a title given to me by Morri and Menthu after all my diligent work and training... I however make no claims to the title Sith Lord... I am a simple servant of the Force... I have learned much from Morrigna... from bits of who I am, to Sith Sorcery, Sith Alchemy, force abilities, and battle training... Menthu refers to me as her protege'... but I'm not so sure that's a valid description..."

*Kite grins at her*
I can believe that she is...
*He smiles and nods*
I'm sure it is nearly the same, although, from the sound of it, it has some changes... I am glad that you are diligent. It is a good thing... And I'd take a "Master of the Darkness" over a "Sith Lord" any day. I've killed so called "Sith Lord"s before, they aint that tough.
Sith Magic, eh? I'm sure that Morri is a good teacher of that. I am curious about your skill in that, though that is another worry for another time.
Protege. Why wouldnt you think that is a valid description? Menthu is fairly straight-forward, at least he was when I knew him.

Lyra nods.
"Master Morrigna certainly does know her way when it comes to the art of bippity-boppity-boo."
She says with a smirk, then shrugs.
"I use magic fairly often when on mission... it's a useful tool, so I'm sure that you'll get first hand experience at some point."
She says giving a wink. She then laughs a bit.
"Menthu is certainly straight forward... he says what pops into his head... as for being Morri's protege, I'm just not sure I'm worthy of that title... Morrigna is a far superior being to myself... "

*Kite nods*
I do know that about my own "sister", Lyra. But I'm glad she does.
*Kite laughs at her statement about magic and shakes his head.*
First hand experience? Lyra, you make me laugh.
*Kite smiles at her, tilting his head*
Whatever put the idea in your head that "Protege" meant "better than"? Besides, you may very well be train up to being her equal or better. I certainly hope so, though I do hope that you don't kill her in the process. That would make both Menthu and I very angry... And thats one thing you do not want.

Lyra chuckles, rolling her eyes a bit.
"Don't play the fool Kite, I have no intention of harming Morrigna or Menthu... only those who harm or betray them. So... "brother" or not... It would be in your best interest to make no attempts to betray them. They're my family, and have my complete loyalty. I can only hope the same can be said for you."

*Kite sighs and shakes his head*
There are two things that, if you knew me, you wouldnt have just said.
One: You wouldnt have accused me, or even hinted at the idea, that i would betray my family.
Second: If you knew me, you wouldn't imply any threat or hint that you might take me down for said actions. If you wish to try, good luck, but do not think that you will beat me.
Now that that is settled, I am glad they have such loyalty from you.

Lyra chuckles hearing Kite.
"I never said you would or wouldn't... just being upfront with you. Morri, Menthu, Alexia, and the Crimson Blade have my undying loyalty... it's only fair that I'm honest with you."
She then smirks hearing his second remark.
"I won't say I could or couldn't take you down... but I will say that you're a fool if you ever underestimate any opponent. That can be a fatal mistake for even the most seasoned warrior..."
She shrugs slightly.
"...now... stop being so touchy..."
She chuckles.
"Being related to Morri, I'd think you'd have more ability to handle strong, smart mouthed, driven women..."
She says with a wink.

*Kite nods at Lyra's comment on her undying loyalty*
Duely noted.
*Kite sighs and bites his tongue before retorting to the young darkling before him, keeping a handle on himself before saying, calmly.*
I am perfectly fine handling strong, smart mouthed, driven women. I married one as well as being related to many. Believe me, I know how to handle it.
What now? Are we waiting for them, or others? Or just biding our time like before?

Lyra shrugs hearing Kite.
"There are others we've yet to hear back from.. Morri is handling contacting everyone she wishes to be apart of this... as for now, we're free to do as we please up until Morri and Menthu tell us otherwise... it isn't quite time to make a move yet... please... feel free to make yourself at home here... I do believe your room has your name on it... "
