Re: Open Orbit

On board the Endless - Medical Bay

She had been spending a long time adjusting the MedBay, losing track of time. Finally, Adriana stretched her back and looked about, at least the place was relatively cleaner now than before. When she entered, it had looked like a bunch of animals rampaged through. Well, at least I've restored order to it. That's got to be good. She sat down to rest her heels for a moment, and almost immediately was beset by memories of her parents. The model leaps to her feet, smashing her fist angrily into the table.

"Why??? Why can't I forget?!?" She asks no one in particular.

Because it's too soon, too fresh. She sighed, knowing all too well why she'd been keeping herself occupied in one way or another, because the alternative would have been to sit down somewhere dwelling on the past. But her parents had taught her much, among other things, how to move on. They'd always encouraged her to go after the stars, pursue a dream, do something. They trained her to be a person of action and movement. So this is how she dealt with any problem since, with action and movement.

She dared not sit still now, for it would lead to troubled thoughts, which she was not willing to bear. So she left the MedBay and took the turbolift. Heading for the Hangar. She stepped out, humming a tune to herself as she crossed between ships, trying to cause as little obstruction as possible to the people working there. Still, she couldn't help but cause a few to pause in their work and stare at her. Looks like this was going to take some getting used to, for them. A celebrity on board a smuggler's vessel, what a story! It almost made Adriana laugh. Almost.

She was heading for her ship, a pink Maka-Eekai L4000 Transport. If the ship had feelings, it would have been embarrassed by its color scheme and design. It was so...girly. She paused however, to look at a vessel of Corellian design. This must be the Unfair Advantage that belonged to another smuggler captain, named Galdaart Fel. As she pondered the vessel, wondering what became of its captain, she turned around to glance at a droid, of her favorite class. An R2 unit! She loved R2 units, adoring they're cute little design and admiring their versatality. This one though, seemed to be rather busy doing something to itself.

She sauntered over, trying not to look threatening, she kneels down so she can look the droid in the eye. Smilling, she speaks to it, "Hello R2...uhm..." She looks around for the rest of its identification, "..well, R2...You seem eager to get at that...Oh, is that a restraining bolt. Now why would they put that on you, I wonder..."

Why would they indeed. She considered this, there had to be a reason, a good one. But perhaps her love for these little droids overrode her sense, or perhaps she reasoned out that these droids were notorious for developing their own personalities without a routine wiping. While some owners allowed this, not everyone approved and would try to curb this in whatever way was possible for them. Either way, she grabs the brazer first and then holds it just a little distance away, out of reach from the droid. She smiles once more at it, still kneeling.

"Will you talk to me?" She asks, "I wouldn't mind helping you get that bolt of if you can tell me why you're trying to liberate yourself from it in the first place. I promise."

She was glad she understood binary, having had a R2 unit back on Coruscant which frequently served her needs. She leans back and waits to see if the droid would respond.

Re: Open Orbit

Acclamator-class assault ship, The Endless - Engine Room

*After Nika had walked away from him Adrien did not return to his room where Marv was, instead he walked to the engine room of the Endless where he pulled out the bottle of Jawa Juice that Marv had brought to him. It had been a long time since Adrien had let alcohol pass his lips, a promise made to Jania that he would never drink again seemed far past expired as he looked at the bottle. He couldn't stop feeling like the kiss with Nika was a betrayal to Jania even though she was long gone. He opened the bottle as Nika's last words to him rang in his head...

Nika Rodan wrote:I am alone too....


And he took a drink, swallowing hard*


I know Princess...I know. *He took another drink as he thought about what to do next*

*He sat in a secluded corner of the engine room for about an hour drinking for the first time in over eight years and for the first time he had no idea what to do next. Normally he would rush in to go and get his brother but now there was a doubt that it could be done with only the people he had. Dax and Mack were back on Varonat, Ace and Ryder were with Tobias and Ben and the only person that was an actual soldier with him was Marv and they would be going against an army.

But the a thought entered his mind, and he tossed the empty bottle to the side and stood up stumbling a little before heading out and toward the turbolift, as he walked on to the lift he leaned against the wall to hold himself up*


Acclamator-class assault ship, The Endless - Bridge

*As the doors open Adrien pushes off the wall and staggers onto the bridge approaching Wright with a slight haze in his eyes and the alcohol on his breath*

Wright, I need you to take us to...*He jots down something on a piece of paper and looks at Wright as he hands it too him* these coordinates. *Knowing Wright would see the location and wonder why he wanted to take them into the middle of no where, Adrien continued* Give us a shuttle and then return to...whatever it is you do. Ok?

*Wrench turned his radome in Adriana's direction, his small grabber hand following the trajectory of the brazer, which was now held just out of reach. The grabber closed reflexively once or twice, as if to say 'gimme.' If it had been possible for the little astro droid to incline his head in a questioning manner, he would have done so, instead rotating his body to meet the direction of his head and uttering a short pair of questioning tweets. Wrench studied the pretty woman for a moment, as if determining whether loyalty and trust were deserved.

After a few moments of deliberation, Wrench stood up as straight as possible, retracted his grabber arm, and presented as formal a posture as he could muster.*


Hello, pretty female, designate FE-1277. I am R2P47, designate 'Wrench.' I am currently aboard Series II Acclamator Transport 'Endless,' destination Smuggler's Run. I am co-pilot of the 'Unfair Advantage,' which was unlawfully taken from Master 1.43 standard days ago. As for why I was fitted with this restraining bolt...

*Wrench immediately engages the vocoder which captured pilot Ethan Lurov's voice right after touchdown of the 'UA' in Varonat's orbit, days ago.*

=Ethan Lurov=
...Hey, you all might want to slap a restraining bolt on this lil' guy, or maybe just power him down...


*Anxiety, concern and frustration are evident in the pilot's voice.*

Evidently, I was a problem. Will you assist me?

Re: Open Orbit

Adriana chews on her lower lip as she listens to Wrench's explanation. Now she wished she hadn't gotten involved. This droid belonged to the captain of the Unfair Advantage. Which means that if she did decide to help the R2 unit, chances are high it was going to hightail it back to the freighter and take off somehow as soon as possible. I should just walk away, leave and keep this thing far out of its reach...yet...but it's just a droid! Why should I care what it thinks? Oh!

Adriana slaps the brazer down on the table, next to Wrench, and very well within its reach. She pats it on its domed head, "I'm this ship's doctor, and rather new at this life. I'd hate to get into trouble before it's even started. Still, I can't just leave you here like this. Something tells me you really need to do what you have to do." She kisses it on the top of its head as she straightens up.

"Good luck to you, Wrench." She says as she leaves, casually sauntering off towards her own ship. Somehow she manages to reach the transport without being seen, making it look like she'd been inside there the whole time. She silently chided herself later for helping Wrench. She had to understand that as a smuggler, you were going to definitely steal things, like ships, and droids. She sighed and plopped on her bed, wondering about the turn her life had suddenly taken.

Re: Open Orbit

*Wrench tooted a merry 'thank-you' at female designate FE-1277 and grabbed the restraining bolt brazer, and neatly severed the connection between it and his primary circuit. One minute, forty-four seconds of power remained in the reserve shunt, and satisfied with his efforts, Wrench returned once more to primary power.

Extending his third leg, the little droid wheeled over toward the Unfair Advantage, which lay dark and devoid of life in a berth in the centre of the hangar. Repair sleds and parts skiffs from the recent repairs sat unattended under the belly of the freighter, and Wrench took this to be a good sign of security in this transports' open areas.

Wheeling toward the port landing struts, Wrench keyed in the access code for the landing ramp. As expected, it had been changed, and the little R2 unit set about hacking the code, which took 64% longer than averages would have suggested. Wrench was impressed.

As the landing ramp lowered, the little droid wheeled around to greet it, ascending into the hold of the vessel, and closing the ramp after himself. The route was quick to access the cockpit, and the droid cooed, oohs and ahs issuing forth as he noticed a bit of repair her and there. Wrench would have to seek out the young Nagai female, designate NFE-006 and thank her personally.

The pre-flight checklist went smoothly, all systems were in the green, and fuel levels, though not full, were more than acceptable for the upcoming trip.

And then, Wrench sat. He had completed his assigned duties, and though he longed to rejoin Master and the crew, he needed to be told to do so. And so he sat, momentarily considering his options and deciding if he could bypass a direct order from Master...*

Re: Open Orbit

*The fleet Sensors took a good time before they actually Got news of the Acclamator. The Sensory officer for this was punnished and demoted, letting a great range of other young officers to get promoted... But that was not the point. the point was that there was a ship, that should maybe not be here.

That is to be questioned.

Admiral Blackadder was stadning on the bridge, looking over the situation on the ground... The information gathering of the civilian databases, byrocratic datbases, and such to identify people friendly to the last government. There will be a short, and swift cristal nacht on these people.

but now... there was an Acclamator in orbit. Smaller shipps he wouldnt care for, but this is a rather heavy warship.*
