Collins looked at Mórrígan and An Tiarna briefly then spoke
-Collins-
"We are going to be making some moves."
Again a turn of phrase that may be taken as so benign out the mouths of some carried a whole other connotation among this crew
-Collins-
"I believe that you two understand."
In between the subtly of the words meaning began to take form
"We are moving into business fully. And some situations need be addressed."
He was certain the Luca, Breen and himself would be busy boys indeed. The same for the two whom he was addressing. His eyes swept the others assessing their value. Gid's eyes caught his in passing and he tossed an envelope in her direction. Collins carried on with his mental evaluation

Laoch nodded a thin smile on his face and Ciarán responded enthusiastically
-Ciarán Dubh-
“Oh we more than understand and are really game for this assignment.”
He looked intensely eye to eye at Collins

Collins nodded at the statement and silently handed a dossier to Ciaran. The ball was now rolling, on a course many may be very unhappy about. Collins handed Breen and Luca a copy of the dossier also

Luca accepted the dossier from Collins with a knowing smile. Placing the document in pocket he scanned the crowd with hard eyes. Luca stepped back into the shadows

Breen taking the dossier presented to him by Collins spoke
-Breen-
“Micheal we will dispose of this business…. I assure you.”
Breen too stepped to the side standing with Luca

Gid snatched the envelop Collins had throw towards her, looking inside her head shot up eyes wide the down again to the contents of the envelop. Head turning to her right she spoke
-Gid-
"Alem - we are going!"
Then to her left
-Gid-
"Shakk, com'on."
She turned walking away, Alem on her tail. Shakk without looking up stated cryptically
-Shakk-
“There’s a bunch of bigggg stones where we’re going….” Looking up with a puzzled expression on her face
-Shakk-
“And a den of thieves….”
The girl shrugged off the foreboding statement and followed her sisters

Ciarán & Laoch stood watching. When the Twi'leck trio moved Ciarán smacked Laoch on the right side of the head with the weighty dossier and drawing his pistol followed
-Laoch-
"WTF was that for!?!"
No response coming Laoch, pistol already drawn followed Ciarán

A rather laid back looking individual watched on the periphery. This was one of An Tiarna's favoured band of galactic misfits. A former Imperial pilot, Fliez Fasd, who worked his way up to the rank of Captain before receiving a dishonorable discharge for piracy. Fasd is a pilot par excellence with sound street sense. Looking for work he fell in effortlessly with the Outlaw Tech crew, and as consequence found himself n the sphere of An Tiarna. A magnificent pilot with sound street sense he contributed greatly to the IF. Known as Fly Guy to the Old man. An Tiarna roared
-An Tiarna-
"Fly Guy!!! Take care of the girls!"
Fasd nodded and responded
-Captain Fasd-
"Righto An Tiarna!"
Hand waving to his crew he walked away. The crew followed Fly Guy. A notable tagalong was the legendary pilot, Commander Dan. Easily the most highly decorated living IF fighter pilot, this man fought in many engagements, including Taris and Kashyyyk. What he lacks in common sense is more than made for by his wizardry as an aviator. Lieutenant Gett Lostalotand Lieutenant Wher Wegoing strode with the Twi'leck girls. They were in turn followed by their staff, a Command Chief Master Sergeant, Chief Master Sergeant, Senior Master Sergeant, Master Sergeant, Technical Sergeant and Staff Sergeant. An Tiarna screamed
-An Tiarna-
"God's speed!!! And may no gravely unfortunate accidental deaths impede your travels but rather I wish any such incident to be cold, calculated and all evidence be neatly washed away!"

Epona galloped with such ferocity after the triplets and boys one would believe that she intended to decapitate a siblings or two. But she came to a halt a few meters back of the group proudly looking down on them walk into the mystic. She turned back once then twice with question filled eyes at the gathering but no immediate answer fell at her feet. The centaur stood nobly watching those dear move away

The girls walked straight ahead. The air could be cut with a knife, so high was their collective anticipation. Gid heard An Tiarna barking orders and grinned subconciously. She was ready to fly. Alem stocked along at the right of her sister. Physically she was cut in An Tiarna's image. His words of encouragement steeled her will. Shakk, on the left was too caught in her mind to hear the Old man but could sense his power and she held her head up wide, muttering
-Shakk-
<<Here we come....>>
All three were aware of the men following them. Their collective backs stiffed, each girl being all to used to unwanted attention but relaxed realizing that this was protection. They awaited their transport silently. Lieutenant Gett Lostalotand Lieutenant Wher Wegoing and their crew strode over and engaged in small talk with the Twi'leck girls.
After some time one Sergeant with glassy eyes and a goofy smile said to the girls -Randy soon to be renamed Sergeant Food For the Worms-
“I will service you any way that you wish…. I mean….”
Gid laughed in spite of herself as Lieutenant Gett moved to step in but Acting reactively Alem’s feet went flat and she threw a vicious right cross at the man. Alem turned at the hip coming up on the ball of her right foot at the end of the motion. Hand snapping back she stood quietly as the man dropped to his knees bleeding from the nose. Lieutenant Gett watching with mouth dropped open finally spoke
-Lieutenant Gett Lostalotand-
“What did we learn today gentlemen?”
Two officers helped their fallen comrade to his feet as the other three stared blankly

The boys also turned and walked, nodding to An Tiarna and Mórrígan caught up with the girls. Ciarán leaned towards Laoch to his right speaking quitely
-Ciaran-
"I ain't talking horse-woman, and I know they're cousins and all, but damn those are some fine looking ladies - know what I mean?"
Laoch nodded mouth open ran on at the lip voice raising slightly
-Laoch-
"I get your point.... And from the belly up Epony or whatever her name is... is not bad lookin. We're surrounded by a living version of the Victoria Secrets catalog!"
Laoch was hit with another Ciaran if looks could kill gaze and slap in the head. They followed staying a comfortable distance back of the crew ahead yet close enough to respond. Both watched around them missing nothing. Six men in military garb approached and a quiet conversation transpired

Two Wayfarer made an uneasy landing on the surface and the crew of both ships exited. Captain Fasd walked over shook hands with the COs of the vessels. Turning he waved his hand
-Captain Fasd-
"Get over here!!!"
Lieutenant Gett Lostalotand Lieutenant Wher Wegoing and their crew turned abruptly at the order and were with Captain Fasd in seconds

Seeing the Wayfarers land the Gid spoke
-Gid-
"Alem, Shack - let's go!!!"
All three proceeded over to the ship. All cargo, living and inanimate, were loaded with speed and the ship picked up into the air. The Wayfarer disappeared in the clouds

The Epiphany of Ciaran & Laoch Another agonizing chapter of The hated Dubh story
1 Loach and Ciaran entered a Wayfarer with six crewmen. The hanger shut and the ship fired up and was in the sky in what seemed but the beat of an eye. And like that they were but a memory....
And from boring mundane nonsense, like seen above, this should spiral into something really, really stupid

And then there was light! An Tiarna had woken! Actually woken. And what a night of dreams!
An Tiarna
"For joy I am blessed!"
Many bottles still stood stacked, just not as he had framed it in his sleeping mind
-An Tiarna-
"Well... at least wasn't that dreadful nonsense today."
Eating his antipsychotics, anti-convulsants and anti-Parkinson's drugs he poured a coffee and sat back to allow consciousness to descend on him fully. After some time the Old man reared up and spoke abruptly “I hear talk in the wind… scorched earth.”
Slowly rolling a cigarette then lighting it continued
“Don’t think that many grasp the true magnificence of that tactic.”
Giant right index finger wagging in the air
“Tis when you wipe out everything that people want from you, before they can take it….”
Smiling “And having done it from both ends of the field – I know.”
The Old man sat back to his coffee
AFTER THAT NECESSARY MOMENT IN INTIGESTION BACK TO THE PREVIOUSLY GRILLED WHALE

OoC That's BILLED TALE you baboon
BiC
Morrigan stood, picking up a chair. Chanting to herself she clouded her mind and avoided eye contact with the Old man. Then in one smooth motion she rose the chair high and came crashing down on An Tiarna's back. The chair shattered. Morrigan dropping what remained of the chair, took a step back slipping dagger out in right hand she stood, left foot in front and right foot back. Mórrígan lit a cigarette
"We need pick it up...."

The Old man payed no mind to Mórrígan's movements, his mind to wrapped up thinking about how little there was to think about. The chair making contact with his body the Old man lurched forward went down to his right knee and rolled. Very fine illustration of what good reflexes combined with experience could do, with some help from luck. Standing he smiled, the gave her a well measured jolt of Force Lightening then casually responded
-An Tiarna-
"Old haunts.... But patience... patience...."
From out of nowhere he rolled on
-An Tiarna-
"Don't you share my belief that the words 'expansion' and 'region' when place side by each far too readily come off wrong?"
OoC Love of all that is holy! Post 555 - the sign of.... nothing. That's 666... right. My sincerest apologies Mephistopheles

The Old man was as tough as nails. A chair over the back and he took it well then came back at her to toss some hell. The Lightening was not full force - she knew from horrible experience - but it hurt. The cigarette in her mouth was no more than ashes, falling to the wind. Her hair stood momentarily and as it laid back down that rank stench that an industrial hairdryer leaves behind hung in the air. Tears involuntarily flowed down her face. Holding up her right hand she coughed.~Is that smoke!?!~She fought for balance

Collins walked over ignoring the present incident, cleared his throat and handing a paper to the Old man
-Collins-
“An Tiarna… the damage.”
He stood back awaiting the tirade
