Victor, Angel, and Phoenix had all taken a fast shuttle from the Alliance Command Center up to the spaceport, and managed to arrive with a small squad of Alliance troopers and a couple of the other high ranking officers within the Alliance just before the shuttle bearing the Rear-Admiral landed. Victor and his fellow Officers gave the Rear-Admiral a salute "Welcome back to Mon Calamari... So, you have come to join the fight at last? We can certainly use a few more good men like you and your fleet on our side..."

The Duro could tell that Mon Calamari was firmly in the hands of the Alliance. Their banners flew all over and, in the din of civilization, his ears could detect the rhythm of boots and training. It wasn't an occupation but the sound of security to the civilians and the promise of a better future. Jemad looks at Victory and his fellow officers. He raises his hand, giving a crisp salute to his comrades.
I was part of the fight long ago, but was delayed on Corellia, Sir.
He decided to summarize what had happened so far.
I am what remains of the Republic's Colonies Fleet. We came under heavy fire within the Deep Core as I searched for any remains of our allies. We could not believe that the Republic was gone... yet, our carelessness led us into Imperial territory. We were chased out of the Deep Core, losing many ships and crew members along the way.
Jemad spent all his time on Corellia sending letters to the families of deceased personnel.
We managed to throw them off over Foerost before fleeing away. Thankfully, the Corellian government took my crew in and ensured my ships were repaired. Then I learned of your cause and made best speed here.

Clem snapped back to reality from his thoughts when Penny started to speak. She had a point saying that they might never know, he had resolved himself to that fact before he left Felucia. He hardly had time to consider this when she stood, pulling himself up with her. He was just thinking that if she kept pulling him around like this someone, likely him, would get hurt. Then she gave him a bit of a shove. Hey! That was all he had time to say before his natural reaction to take the correcting step with his right leg occurred. He hadn't noticed she had disconnected it so when he attempted to step the leg did nothing more than fold up his pant leg. The resulting overbalance caused him to reach out for the nearest thing to grab, which happened to be a dresser. Managing to stop his fall he started to look over his shoulder to say something to Penny while trying to right himself, unfortunately this caused the dresser to tilt off the wall. He fell face down to the floor as the dresser continued to topple. Knowing it was falling he rolled to his back and focused on the dresser reaching out with the force to stop it before it landed on him. This, for the main part, worked, but the dresser opened spilling its contents all over him. With the dresser now hovering only inches from him he took a second to spit out the cloth that fell into his mouth before calling out to Penny. Penny! Don't touch the dresser and move over to the door... Quickly! He waited until he heard he moving by the door before acting, focusing on moving the dresser further off him, enough so that a pair of arms could be seen from underneath the pile of "clothing." He hovered the dresser until it was clear from him and dropped it with a crash on the other side of the room. The crash would be loud enough to be heard in the neighboring rooms, and was enough to set a box next to the now destroyed dresser humming. He then sat up looking over towards Penny, covered in clothing he hadn't bothered to look at, with a twisted up pant leg with a disconnected leg sticking out at an odd angle.How exactly was that supposed to help? He sounded a bit annoyed when he said this. Penny had made sure to get herself well clear of Clem when she had pushed him, and had wasted no time getting over to the door when he told her too. She had not so easily forgotten the sheer chaos he had caused when he had left the hospital. It had been part of the reason she had lost her job. So this time she had been ready, especially since she had set him upon this course of chaos. Penny couldn't help but giggle at the assortment of lingerie and clothing now covering Clem as he sat up. She picked up the pair of underwear that Clem had spat out and held it nonchalantly"So... you like having underwear stuffed in your mouth do you? I'll be sure to remember that..."She then leant down and quickly kisses his forehead and gave him a wink before tossing the underwear back onto the pile. She opened the box then, and started turning off all the humming toys, briefly looking back at him"Well you said repeating actions might help you remember... So I figured you hitting your head on something might do it..."It seemed like she was going to have to be more devious in her scheme to help him. After all, there would be no fun in him seeing the attack... help coming. She then pointed quickly to the door, hoping he might look away long enough for her to toss one of the small toy boxes at his head.
Mace, meanwhile, was getting quite the joy out of watching the whole thing unfold"Damn girl... I told her to give him a good time with the full package, but ain't no fool expecting that kind of treatment..." Han had been busy finishing off the droid, waiting for the operating software to finish copying over, when he heard the loud crash. There was only one person that Han knew of, that could be the cause of such a crash. Clem must have gotten himself into some sort of accident again. How the man was still alive, was beyond his understanding. His datapad then distracted him, as the transfer was finished. He pocketed the datapad then, just as the power up cycle of the small droid finished, its head coming to attention and it's sensor eye focusing on him. Han smiled and gave a wave to the droid Hello BB-Awesome... Well, his translator unit had had a good run, so naturally it was bound to begin malfunctioning again like this The small spherical droid paused a moment, as it registered its name, before poking out the small torch to give Han a thumbs up. Well, there were far worse names he could have called the droid Let's roll out! Han then pointed towards the door lock, hoping that BB-Awesome would understand what he meant BB-Awesome paused a moment, before rolling over to the door and started to work on the door lock

Along the way, his gaze was more outward, looking upon the scenery of Mon Calamari. There were many Alliance soldiers, but there seemed to be a lack of something. Corellia seemed very different from Mon Calamri.Tell me, Marshal Marshall, what of the governance of Mon Calamari? I see many soldiers here, but no... politicians nor government officials. When I came to Corellia, I was introduced to their leadership, both military and civilian. Yet here, I see only military.True they were the Rebel Alliance, but what was their goal? Would they not seek to reform the Galactic Republic? To return it to its former glory and right the wrongs of the past? True the Republic had fallen in corruption and decadence, but it could certainly be revitalized through the efforts of the Rebel Alliance.

Z'har made sure Brick had the right info correct before wandering a little way down the street. It wouldn't do to get caught in the fallout after all. For a few minutes before he wandered away, Brick had more or less closed off the line, preventing new people from entering the building, except for a few particular faces that were familiar to the bouncer. Once it was clear that people weren't getting in, the line soon evaporated. Z'har was well clear before things began in truth. Brick edged through the door, being unable to enter without ducking heavily & locked it. Looking out over the crowd, Brick made a mental list. Most of the patrons would fairly good people, for a given value of good. A few on the other hand needed to be thrown through a wall. A couple of the meaner staff members had the same need. Fortunately, Brick was on hand to provide.
It was usually hard to sneak up on someone when you are the size of a speeder, however a combination of surprising grace & the loud music in the front areas allowed Brick to pull it off. Stepping up between to particularly bad apples, Brick placed a large hand on either shoulder. With a surprisingly casual flick of her arms, the two patrons vanished. The only indication they had been in the room at all was a pair of slightly bloody holes in the tile ceiling. About two seconds later, a pair of the guard staff made their own exits through an ornamental wall. That is about the time the screaming started. Of course, Brick's real goal was the absolute slime by the name of Mace that ran the place.

Clem tossed aside the pile of clothes over him not quite catching her comment, he looked up to ask her to repeat it and ended up with a kiss to the forehead instead. This was a little to unexpected for Clem who decided to not comment on either, the kiss, or her prior comment. Instead he focused on straightening out his pant leg so he could reattach it. It was proving difficult so he looked to make sure she was still messing around in the box, Seeing that she was he unbelted his pants quickly dropping them far enough that they were past the attachment point, pulled the leg back through his pants and attached it. He had just about finished pulling the pants back on when she looked back towards him, he hesitated at the point of refastening the belt when she pointed at the door. Turning quickly thinking someone there might have just caught him with his pants down, however he didn't see anything. Hands still frozen on his belt he was about to turn back when something smacked him across the head. Ow! what was that... He paused and looked down at the fairly small item she had just thrown at his head, he looked slightly puzzled and glanced back up to Penny. I remember this logo...

Victor turned to look out the window as the Duro asked after the government of Mon Calamari. It was an understandable statement to make, since the Alliance had quite a heightened presence between the spaceport and the command center "The Mon Calamari govern from Coral City for the most part. Like Corellia, they govern themselves and appear when they need to or are asked to. When you asked for the military leadership of the Alliance, that is what you got Rear-Admiral... Foamwander just has a larger military presence because it is the center of the Alliance military operation. We have almost a dozen worlds sending soldiers here to be organised and deployed to a number of different battle fronts..." Victor turned his attention more upon the Duro then "Once we get back to the command center, you'll see more politicians..."

He paused and looked down at the fairly small item she had just thrown at his head, he looked slightly puzzled and glanced back up to Penny. I remember this logo...
Penny was rather amused to find Clem holding his belt. Apparently she had missed him doing something just moments ago. A little bit of hope was sparked within her when he said he remembered something. But that hope was quickly dashed when she looked at the logo on the box. It was only the Lust Corp logo, and they had only been around for less than a year"I thought it might help knock some memories back into you... and how do you know that logo? Unless you are really good at pretending to be an innocent fool..."Her attention was then drawn to the sound of a commotion outside the room. She ran over to the panel by the door, which showed a video feed from out in the main bar area. People were running around, trying to get away from the bouncer known as Brick. It appeared that the green tattooed Herglic was going on a bit of a rampage killing people and was headed towards Mace at the moment. Penny turned to look back at Clem as an idea ran through her head"We have to get out of here! One of the bouncers has started killing people... Clem, please help me! You might be the most accident prone person I have ever met, but I need your help!"Mace had not noticed the Herglic enter the bar and toss a couple of the patrons through walls. But when the screaming started, he looked up to see Brick coming for him. The fury that he felt rise within him in that moment, was like a volcano. He rose from his seat then, and pulled out a vibro sword from his pimp cane with the letters B-A-M-F etched on it"Ya wanna mess with me sucker? Well I ain't got no time for yo shit!" BB-Awesome managed to finish slicing the door controls, allowing Han to get out when people started pouring through the back hallway. He had no idea what was going on, but with a commotion such as this happening, it meant he could escape more easily. He gave a nod to BB-Awesome before the pair made their escape into the crowd, disappearing out a back alley of the club. As soon as the crowd started to thin out into the main streets, Han headed back for the spaceport

Brick may be a wall of muscle, but that didn't mean the bouncer was a fool. The power armor would stand up to the sword without much issue, but the lack of a helmet was a weak point. With a surprising amount of grace, Brick reached out & snagged a patron that had a history of making strippers vanish, though he always had a solid alibi. As most of the crowd came up roughly to the bouncer's armpits, it was relatively easy to swing the patron into a javelin throw & launch him at Mace.
Brick was, however being careful to avoid hurting anyone not on the mental list. All the girls & most of the patrons were perfectly safe, though they didn't know that. Anyway, the mass flood away from Brick gave plenty of room to work with.

Clem managed to at least register her disappointment when she noticed the logo he was speaking of. Although she seemed rather determined to knock the memories back into him, he rather hoped she would managed to do so without causing further harm. He was about to respond to how he knew of the logo when he became distracted, he looked back out to the main hall just before a commotion started there. He stood, fastening his belt as he did so, and turned towards Penny who was looking at a monitor on the wall. She confirmed what he was feeling from the other room, people were getting killed, then she requested his clumsy aid.
Clem stepped forward stumbling over the lingerie covering the floor and watched the monitor for a second. The Herglic he had seen in the odd armor outside The Cave was indeed striding through the bar. Most of the patrons were obviously giving the scene a wide berth, however the actions seemed more focused then blind rage, there was caution to the actions of the bouncer, and the anger seemed to be directed mostly toward Mace, a thought that seemed proven when the latest victim had been thrown directly at him. Seeing as how the bar was emptying out Clem figured it would be best to follow suit, seeing a small trickle of people filtering through the back hallway where they were located he figured there would probably be a backdoor somewhere.
I'm not entirely sure how much help I can be but it would seem your... boss... is in a bit of a situation. He pointed at the monitor. This might be a good time to evacuate like most of the other patrons, I assume there's a back way out we might be able to use? From there... He wasn't quite sure what to do from there, the Serene Moondancer was due to depart soon, yet he felt Penny might still have some answers.

Victor turned his attention more upon the Duro then "Once we get back to the command center, you'll see more politicians..." The Duro was somewhat satisfied with the answer, but did not pursue further questions. When on Corellia, he had not heard much from Corellian Intelligence on the movements of Senators. Since the fall of Coruscant to the Hapes Consortium, the Senators had seemingly vanished, either returning to their homeworlds or going underground, especially if their worlds were territories of the First Order. He even wondered what the goal of the Rebel Alliance was, beyond just being a frontline against the resurgent Imperial presence in the galaxy.I was kept up to date on some activity in the galaxy, Marshal Marshall. Has anything else happened that I should be aware of?

He wasn't quite sure what to do from there, the Serene Moondancer was due to depart soon, yet he felt Penny might still have some answers. Despite the dire situation they were in, Penny had to laugh at Clem's use of the word boss. That was certainly one way to describe a pimp. Not that it would really matter for long what term people used. Even with that vibro sword, Mace was certainly done for up against Brick. The Herglic was clad in powered armour which not only protected him, but enhanced him. She resumed a more solemn expression then as she looked at Clem"Then you can take me with you. My 'boss' is no match for that Herglic... And without him, I've got nothing left. You changed my life once before... Perhaps it is time for you to do it again..."Before he could object, she opened the door and ushered him to follow her, as she lead the way through the crowd and out the rear entrance of The Cave. As long as she pushed him to keep going, then he would have no choice but to take her with him. Life had not given her much reason to want to leave. True, Mace was scum. But she had been lucky he had found her first. There were many pimps out there that were far worse to their... merchandise than Mace was. And if she stuck around, they would get their hands on her"Batter up!"As the Patron came flying at him, Mace quickly side stepped and swung the vibrosword through the patron. It wasn't anything personal against the man. But considering the patron was dead anyway, it would serve as a good show of what the sword was capable of. Mace then pushed forward through the clearing and made to strike at the Herglic

Has anything else happened that I should be aware of? Victor was somewhat relieved that his response had satisfied the Duro. It was a rather strange situation, he supposed, to have to try and explain to someone new. The shuttle came to a stop, as they arrived to the interior structure that served as the Alliance Command Center "Well, I suppose that depends upon how up to date you are..." Victor lead the way off the shuttle and into the building. He chose the quickest route through the many hallways to the central room "...but Jabiim has fallen to the First Order. They are currently moving forces for various offensives. We struck a blow against the Bilbringi Shipyards, taking out one of the shipyard rings there. The team that returned brought us three of the First Orders newest TIE fighters. And we're currently planning a move on Taris, to make a push into First Order held space..." The doors opened then, allowing the party into the large room where the last of the works had been completed. Computer stations were everywhere, with a large wall of monitors at the 'head' of the room. Each one had a label denoting which world it connected to "... Welcome to central command."

The blade was powerful, but Brick wasn't wearing tin foil. The power armor was designed to protect its wearer in full on combat. Catching the blow from the blade in an X formed from armored arms, Brick countered by slamming a huge foot down on the near edge of the stone tile Mace was standing on. The blow should be strong enough to rock up the stone & hopefully cause her target to stumble. All Brick needed to do was avoid head blows & get a single hand on Mace.
Z'har meanwhile was enjoying the show. It seemed the distraction had worked as both the jawa & the man had cleared the building. An interesting bonus was the stripper that had stuck close to the klutz. Now he just had to see if Brick could get out in one piece.
As the tile shifted under Mace's foot, he stumbled. It was all the opening Brick needed. The herglic's reach was far greater than an human's & mace quickly found a heavy hand clamped around his throat. Brick could have simple battered the man into the ground with either of the melee weapons carried on the back of the power armor. But that would be less honorable & less fulfilling. Brick could also kill the puny little man without much effort, but that was too good of a death. With a pair of wet rips & a lot of screaming, Brick left the man on the floor. By now there was no-one left in the building. Mace had made a joke, once she had figured out how badly the contract she had signed really was, that leaving would cost her an arm & a leg. When Brick walked out the front door, it was not only with an arm & a leg, but also a fancy sword. Brick only made a short stop at the small room that she slept in to gather her few things before heading to the landing pad the man had told her about.
With Brick safely out of the building, Z'har disconnect from the security system & headed back for the ship.

Penny laughed at his description of Mace, but then turned to look at him solemnly. She suggested that he take her with him. He was indecisive on this matter. It was not his ship to be able to invite people to come with him but things seemed to be lining up almost as if it was meant to be. She lead him out of the room not giving him much time to think guiding him through the crowd and out the back door where they continued for a few minutes heading in the general direction of the spaceport. Clem spent those intervening minutes finally deciding to breach on the subject of his arrival this time around, and to explain one of his earlier comments. Looking up and starting to slow his pace he stated.
You were wondering earlier how I knew of that logo... That was as far as he managed to get. His footing found the smallest crack in the pavement at just the wrong moment, this sent him sprawling headlong into a pile of trash waiting for removal. From his partial buried state he could imagine Penny turning around towards him grinning ear to ear, with some comical quip for him.
It however was not Penny's voice he heard but a gruff mans voice coming from the alley they were in front of. Being buried in the pile of trash Clem couldn't see what was happening, or hear what was being said. He was only just able to hear indistinct male voices heading down the alley. He started to extract himself from the pile of trash to figure out what was going on.

Having met up with Brick on the way back to the ship, Z'har was leading them down an alley that should cut some time off their trip. Brick was carrying a rather impressive trunk on one shoulder. Z'har was pretty sure it probably weighed as much as he did, but the herglic showed no signs of strain. As they were reaching the end of the alley, a man tripped & fell into a pile of trash. Even if he hadn't seen the face, Z'har would have known that klutz stride anywhere.
-Brick (in herglic) E mohio ana koe ki a ia?
-Z'har (in herglic) Ae, ko ia te kaipuke wairangi.
After a light shrug, Brick reached out with a free hand & grabbed one of the flailing legs. With a casual heft, the man found himself hanging upside down with his head several feet above the walkway. A moment later & the man was safely back on his own feet, or at least as safe as he ever was on his own feet. Looking around, Z'har noticed a lack of the stripper from the club.
-Z'har Hey, didn't you have someone with you?

Penny had managed to get a little ahead of Clem when he slowed down. As he went to explain how he knew the Lust Corp logo, she too slowed down. Only coming to a stop when she heard the distinct sound of Clem face planting into a pile of trash. Regardless of how dire their situation was right now, Clem's clumsiness still managed to put the exact grin he imagined on her face. She had turned around to say something, but was cut off as she saw three figures emerging from the alleyway she was standing in front of "Lookie 'ere lads! Seems we've got ourselves a stray stripper..."
"Ain't that the truf boss!" Penny froze to the spot then. Remembering that in their rush to escape, she'd not had a chance to change her outfit. But also recognising the voices she heard from the alleyway. It could not possibly be them. Not again "Hehehe... she's a fine piece alright..."
"She reminds me of that fine piece of blue ass we had that one time..."
"Grab 'er!" It was then, that the Klatooinian and Xexto thugs rushed out from the shadows and grabbed Penny. The Xexto climbed onto her back and used one hand to cover her mouth, whilst two others drew her hands together. The Klatooinian meanwhile forced her along back into the alleyway where the Devaronian thug was. Where the first two had been armed with pipe like clubs, the Devaronian has a blaster pistol drawn. The barrel of which he pressed up against the underside of Penny's jaw as he drew in close "Ain't you a pretty little thing! Well lads, I think we ought to enjoy our prize!" The other two thugs both nodded in agreement, before dragging her around a corner in the alleyway where the buildings started to extend further back. As the Devaronian examined Penny further, it was becoming more and more apparent that she was familiar "Ya know lads... I think this is that same twi'lek from all those years ago! We had her just like this too! Might be we ought to repay her for that bastard that interrupted us last time!" The Devaronian holstered his pistol then as he moved in closer to Penny, with a dark smirk slowly growing
Han made it back to the spaceport with BB-Awesome in tow. The crowds were beginning to thicken as more ships were coming and going from the world. Whilst it made their advancement more slow going, it also worked in their favour. Han doubted that it would be long before those thugs came looking for him. Something he checked back over his shoulder for. But as he looked ahead again, he saw another reason the crowds were good. For just on the other side of a group of people, he saw Obadiah. His old business partner was not along either. A group of 6 security guards were escorting him through the spaceport.
Thankfully though, their attention was on getting Obadiah through and to The Cave, where they thought Han was still trapped. Meaning that he was able to sneak past them and back to the hangar where the Serene Moondancer was docked without issue. As the consular-class vessel came into view, Han felt a sense of relief. Though, he knew this would not be over just yet. Obadiah would quickly discover Han had escaped and come looking for him. He just hoped that his fellow crew mates had not picked up any of their own trouble. But considering he had last seen Clem with a stripper. It was entirely possible that was the case

Clem barely had time to start climbing out from beneath the pile of trash before he was hoisted out by his leg. To his upside down surprise he registered the bouncer from The Cave standing alongside Z'har before he was placed back on his feet. Having felt Penny's panicked shock as she got dragged into the alley, the moment his feet hit the ground and he was let go he vaulted over the pile of trash picking up a discarded panel with an handle that was convenient.
Without a word to Z'har or Brick, or even pausing to explain his actions he darted up the alley that Penny had been dragged into. Rounding a slight bend, the panel he grabbed clanked loudly against his prosthetic leg grabbing the attention of the Klatooinian thug who turned and stepped towards him raising his pipe recognizing an attack. Clem dropped down and to his left raising the panel in his right hand up like a shield blocking he impact. The resulting clang got the attention of the other two thugs who also turned to see what was going on. The Devaronian was able to see Clem's open left palm reaching back slightly before flying forward using the force to push the Klatooinian through the air. The Xexto however was only to see a form hidden beneath his pal, before his pal started flying directly at him, in his shock he tried to release Penny and get out of the way, but it was too late and the two thugs collided and tumbled down the far end of the alley, releasing Penny from their hold.
The Devaronian seeing all this swore, and pushed Penny to the ground pulling out his blaster as he did so. He took aim at Clem who by this time had stood and raised the panel he was using and angled it to absorb more of the impact from the incoming shots. The Devaronian only managed to fire two shots before Clem pulled the blaster from his hand using the force, he held it in the air in front of him and started a slow walk forward tossing his shield aside. As Clem walked forward the remaining thug backed off in an even pace watching in horror as Clem dissembled his weapon in midair using over the force. When it was fully disassembled Clem stopped, now between Penny and the thugs, and dropped the pieces of the blaster where he was finally saying something.
Although his tone was even and flat his actions and the shadows from the alley across his face made it seem all the more intimidating. He used his raised left hand to point down the alley finally stating simply. Leave! His command was listened to and the Divaronian nearly knocked over the other two as they ran out of the far end of the alley. Seeing them depart he turned to Penny leaning down and extending his hand.
Are you okay? He asked asked as he hoisted her up. We should get moving anyway in case they return but at least... He was about to say that at least now they had some additional backup, however in his efforts he had lost track of where Z'har and Brick had gone until he started to turn to walk down the alley... and hit his head on Brick's power armor covered elbow knocking himself out again.

Z'har & Brick rounded the corner in time to see the klutz tear through the gang like tissue paper. Suddenly Z'har understood why he was on the ship. He was about to say something when the man reverted to his normal self by knocking himself out. Z'har & Brick exchanged a glance. With another minor shrug, Brick hoisted the unconscious man over her free shoulder.
-Z'har I think that leaves me to lead us back to the ship. Z'har, pleased to make your acquaintance. You are familiar with Brick.
With his introduction, Z'har bowed with a slight flourish. It was an older style of greeting but he doubted the woman wanted to be touched at the moment.
