The Surface of the Planet

*Mongoose got up and brushed some dirt off his armour, straightening his helmet, ensuring it was still on tightly. He then walked over and picked up his gun*
=Captain Mongoose=

Right, Falcon and Wraith go and grab the cage.

=Lieutenant Falcon=

Yes Sir!

*Falcon got back on his BARC Speeder as Wraith threw the pod that had held the connor net away since it was useless now, then got on his BARC Speeder. The two Lieutenants then took off back towards the crashed ship.

Mongoose then turned to Ghost*
=Captain Mongoose=

Let's get those spikes re secured.

=Lieutenant Ghost=

Yes sir.

*Mongoose and Ghost got out a hammer from their BARC speeders and hammered the spikes back into the ground, to make sure the net was secure again. Ghost then grabbed a med kit and went over to Eagle and began checking him out.

A few moments later Falcon and Wraith returned with a cage supported between their BARC Speeders. They dropped the cage on the ground near where Venin was pinned down, then got off their speeders and stood the cage up, opening one side.
Then Mongoose, Falcon and Wraith removed the net and hauled the Gen'dai into the cage and quickly secured the cage shut. Falcon and Wraith then stood guard around the cage. Mongoose quickly checked the power supply was keeping the cage electrified should Venin try escape.

Mongoose then walked over to his BARC and got out his data pad, looking for a transport service. With their ship in the state it was, there was no way they were going to be able to fix it and fly off by themselves. Mongoose stopped at a new listing and tried out the comm channel*

*Whilst Mongoose waits for a reply from the H.A.W.T crew, Ghost finishes making sure Eagle wasn't going to die before grabbing his rifle and switching guard duties with Falcon and Wraith who jump on their speeders and head off back to their ship's crash site to retrieve the last of the supplies and salvage what ever they could*

Sun Nov 20, 2011 2:31 am by Jin'thor

*Mongoose recieved a reply letting him know someone was coming to do the pick up. Mongoose then walked over to the cage to take up a guard position as Falcon and Wraith returned from the crash site, lugging the last of their supplies and the few items they were able to scavenge from the wreck.
They now how to wait for the ship to arrive*

Tue Nov 22, 2011 4:32 am by Jinx

A gray XS-800 light freighter, with the letters H.A.W.T painted in a fire yellow color on both sides of it and a black widow spider painted on the bottom in red and black landed at the designated spot. Not knowing how long their contact would take, Jinx decided to leave the engines idling just in case they needed to get out of there fast. Picking up a comink, she sent a coded text message to Captain Mongoose to let him know they had arrived and were waiting. Sitting back in her chair, she took a drink of caf and looked at Ni'Moira and Me'lia with a grin.

"And now ladies....we wait for Captain Mongoose."

Tue Nov 22, 2011 5:28 am by Jin'thor

*Mongoose spied the XS-800 Light Freighter as it landed*
=Captain Mongoose=

Right men there is our pick up, load up and roll out!

*A few seconds later the text message came through from Jinx letting him know they had arrived. The cage was suspended between Mongoose's and Ghost's speeders, with Eagle being placed on his speeder which was towed behind the cage. Then the 5 ARC Commando's set off out of the city ruins to the landing site. Mongoose and Ghost stopped under the port side elevator, while Wraith and Falcon stopped under the starboard side elevator.
Mongoose and Ghost righted the cage so it stood up straight and moved Eagle's BARC speeder in closer. Mongoose then radioed the ship*
=Captain Mongoose=

:: Good evening ladies, me and my men are ready to load when your good ::

Thu Nov 24, 2011 3:00 am by Jinx

After only a few moments of waiting, a message came through from Capt. Mongoose.

Mongoose wrote::: Good evening ladies, me and my men are ready to load when your good ::

Looking at the holoscreen on the side control panel, she could see the men standing down below the ship by the cargo bay loading elevator.

:: Captain Mongoose, I'm granting you access to the cargo bay of the ship. I trust that your cargo is safely contained and under your control. When you have it loaded, please let me know so we can go over the contents to update our logs. ::

Reaching over, she flipped a switch that opened up the cargo bay door and lowered the elevator tube granting the men access to the cargo bay within. The men would find everything they needed to secure the cargo in the hold. Cargo straps/belts, magnetic locking clamps, ropes, chains, etc.. There was probably even some duct tape and super glue, because everyone knows if you have those two things that nothing is getting loose from where you put it....

XS-800 light freighter, H.A.W.T - Cockpit

The normally quiet and sneaky cook for the crew, Petrisya, made her presence known when she accidentally clashes her large round shield on the bulkhead, prompting the Ageless to squeak in fright and leap to the other side, again banging her shield on the bulkhead. Visibly shaken, the girl slowly and very carefully makes her way into the cockpit, though, by now, everyone in the ship knew exactly where she is. She stiffens when she spots Fluffy, the wonder Vornsk'r that belongs to the equally enigmatic Ni'moira Kale. The large feline made her extremely nervous, and she would scream whenever it ventured into the galley, drawn by the fragrant smell of her cooking. As such, she has taken to carrying her large shield with her wherever she went in the ship, as long as the cat was around, and constantly making barricades at the front of the galley, though that has shown little effectiveness.

The girl glances about nervously, then points in the general direction of the Cargo Bays, looking at Jinx, "Th-there's men very near the ship." She says, apparently worried about them even though she was vaguely aware of the job the crew had been hired for.

Thu Nov 24, 2011 9:36 am by Gwyn

*Gwyn turns from her work when the ship lands on Duro. She had kept herself confined to the Engineering Section since her recovery and their departure from Drall. Though she had been repeatedly told that she should be resting as much as possible, she had seen very little sleep during their trip, as she was far too restless, or rather, was too tired to sleep. She did feel bone-weary, and her body ached in every joint, but she enjoyed the opportunity to familiarize herself with the crew ship. It was large and spacious and needed the tender loving care of an engineer who knew her work. Though she was literally a girl displaced in time, she was able comprehend things very quickly, and that helped her to maintain the vessel.

She leaves the Engineering Section and heads towards the cockpit, passing directly through the Common Room and the Quarters. She hears the oddball little walking glowstick called Petrisya crashing all over the place with her shield. Gwyn shakes her head, but with a slight smile on her face, she figured that girl would be the death of herself someday. But she decided to be nicer to the girl now, exspecially since she had travelled all over the galaxy, risking her life for Gwyn, to collect the ingredients needed to cure her disease. She found the cockpit was slowly growing more crowded as the various crewmembers began to meet up there.*

"What are we transporting?"

*The Jabiimi woman still looked to be in a bad way, her figure was almost gaunt and her eyes were hooded. She also seemed on the verge of keeling over all the time, but somehow, stayed upright. Her voice was shaky, and gravelly, almost as difficult to understand as Guppy's waterlogged speech. Her strength, however, was not in doubt. The large and decidedly heavy power wrench in her hand suggested that she was familiar with its use and its weight seemed to be easily borne by her. Covered in grease, due to the extended amount of time spent in the Engineering Section, she tries not to put anymore on herself when she abruptly refrains from running her hand through her long, stringy dark golden hair.*

Thu Nov 24, 2011 10:01 am by Janielle Lunarr

Janielle continues her sleep unaffected by the presence of so many people or their voices, in the chair by the Sensors and Communications Station. The girl stirs slightly and mutters, ♪♫All things pass as the past becomes the future, and the future, the past...♫♪ then she shifts her position slightly, somehow managing to balance her head lightly on the side of her staff, the haunting turquoise glow of the sphere at the top it the subject of many a curious mind.

Fri Nov 25, 2011 7:31 am by Jin'thor

*Mongoose recieved the reply then nodded to his men, who started loading up their meagre scavanged supplies and BARC Speeders into the cargo lift and then placed them in the cargo bay's.
Eagle was left on his speeder in the cargo bay as the 4 ARC Troopers moved the cage Venin was locked in onto the elevator and then moved into a corner of the cargo bay. Mongoose looked at the assortment of items and decided to use some magnetic locking clamps and cargo straps to secure the cage down, even going so far as to add some chains and ropes.
Mongoose then opened a quick holo vid call with their benefactor on Corsucant to prove they had the wretched beast, while Ghost and Wraith lifted Eagle off his speeder and took him into the common room and set him on a couch, doing another check of his health.
Falcon then made sure their speeder's were strapped down in both cargo holds and that their scavenged supplies were as well.
Mongoose then finished his call and exited the cargo bay, meeting Falcon in the common room*
=Captain Mongoose=

Stay here, I'll go meet with our transportation

=Lieutenant Falcon=

Very well sir.

=Captain Mongoose=

And Ghost, make sure he doesn't die on us

*Mongoose called over his shoulder as he made his way up to the cockpit, Ghost merely grunted his reply at being forced to try diagnose and maintain Eagle's health without proper equipment. As he entered, he took his helmet off, to reveal a dark skinned complexion face, baring a faded scar over the right side of his mouth and a still very prominent scar over his left eye. His hair was shaved rather short all over, leaving a small layer off black fuzz.
Not knowing who to address first, Captain Mongoose waited for the right girl to address him as he stood in a somewhat relaxed at attention stance*

Sat Nov 26, 2011 2:11 am by Venin

*As the cage banged and shook as the ARC trooper carried it aboard the H.A.W.T. transport, Venin slowly began to regain consciousness. Opening his eyes slowly, he found Toxoid standing over him.*

I must be hallucinating if I'm actually seeing you...

=Toxoid=

Of course your hallucinating Ven. Now, get the kriff up cause we're in a cage!

*Snapping awake, Venin hopped to his feet and find that what the Toxoid hallucination had said was true. Through the bars of his new prison, he found that he was in a decently large hanger filled with a few scavenged crates and equipment from the Troopers ship, along with their speeders...and the troopers themselves. Shifting his gaze from one to another, Venin growled in frustration before taking a seat and leaning his back up against the bars. Suddenly, then, the Toxoid hallucination appeared standing above him and said.*

=Toxoid=

Let me out Ven. I can make short work of this cage, along with those kriffing Armored Cans and the...

*Sniffing at the air, Toxoid scoffed and said.*

=Toxoid=

...four beautiful smelling women that pilot this vessel.

*Venin then scoffed himself and shook his head.*

We shouldn't always have violence and brutal evisceration be our first option Tox. Always keep that as a plan B. And you know we cant have a plan B without a plan A. So, lets get one of those first, kay?

*Toxoid growled in frustration and rolled his eyes.*

=Toxoid=

Fine, Ven, then what is your...Plan A?

*Venin chuckled to himself at that and began glancing around hanger bay that surrounded him.*

Give me a minute and I'll figure something out.

*Toxoid barked and laughter and, just before vanishing into thin air, said.*

=Toxoid=

Let me know how that works out for ya.

Mon Nov 28, 2011 2:25 pm by Jinx

Jinx was studying the holoscreen that had a security feed of the cargo hold on it, when a man, presumably Capt. Mongoose, Petrisya, Gwen, and Janielle entered the bridge/cockpit. She stood up and turned to them with a smile, answering each in turn.

"I know Petrisya. They're our employers for this trip. In fact, this gentleman has come to speak with us about this job."

She smiled warmly at the shy, skittish, woman who had recently taken to carrying around a shield as of late because of her fear of Ni'moira's pet vornskr Fluffy, who had never shown any aggression towards any of them in the past, but to someone as seemingly frail as Petrisya, Jinx couldn't fault her for it. She liked the woman and did all she could to make her feel comfortable.

She cast a curious glance at Janielle, and decided to ask her about her statement later. Janielle was from the same race of beings as Petrisya, and often spoke in riddles and sometimes it took some time to figure those riddles out. Looking back to the man, she bowed slightly before straightening up and addressing him with a friendly smile.

"Hello, I'm Jinx. This is Petrisya, Gwen, and Janielle. The woman you might have passed on your way up here is Ni'moira and her pet vornskr, Fluffy." After introducing the HAWT team, she paused for a moment then continued in the friendly tone she'd taken.

"Welcome aboard. I hope you and your men found the items you needed in the hold to contain your cargo. Gwen brings up a very good question: What is it that we're transporting for you, how safe is it, and do you have it under control?"

Being Force sensitive, Jinx already knew the "cargo" was a living creature. She didn't think it was a slave so that left a the possibility of a captured bounty. And if it were a bounty, she sincerely hoped that they had it contained enough for transport. She didn't like, nor want, any surprises once they got into space again....

Mon Nov 28, 2011 5:30 pm by Jin'thor

*Captain Mongoose nodded respectfully to each of the women as they were introduced*
=Captain Mongoose=

Thank you Lady Jinx. Indeed we found the items and more that we needed to secure our cargo. Currently we have our BARC Speeders, a few salvaged pieces of cargo from our previous ship and one Gen'dei. I assure you we have taken every measure to make sure this creature doesn't escape us again. The cage is electrified and made of a very durable metal, so at this time it is safe and under control. I would though, like to quickly ask if you have any sort of medical supplies on board? one of my men was injured and could do with some pain relief at the very least, if possible?

*Mongoose knew Ghost wouldn't be fully satisfied, but if he could at least keep Eagle our of pain, it'd be something.

Meanwhile the cage bars Venin was leaning on suddenly sent a massive jolt of electricity through him*

Mon Nov 28, 2011 7:15 pm by Venin

*As the sudden jolt of electricity surged through Venin, he sprang to his feet, roaring in angered pain before whipping around to face the other troopers.*

Cant a guy even get a kriffing wall to lean on in this joint! Kriffing plastic cans know nothing of customer service!

Guppy spent most of her time in the Medical Bay, researching biology, and constantly updating her personal research notes. The young human, Gwyn, was insistent to exert herself by working in the Engineering, against Guppy's stern recommendation that she rest. During their travel to Duro, the Aquarion has been updating the Medical Bay computers with all of her knowledge and experience. In the event of her absence, the medical droid can substitute and borrow from whatever data she has provided. When they landed, she heard people boarding the ship, but it was the anguished roar coming from the Cargo Hold that had the frail aquatic girl leaping out of her chair. She ran unsteadily past the Cargo Hold and straight into the Cockpit.

=Guppy=

"Urmm...whaart arre we carryinn....."

The Aquarion freezes up when she sees the armored man, emitting a shrill but soft cry that sounded animalistic. Her skin literally changes color from tanned to a sickly pale white, and her hair changes from looking wet to dry and flaky.

=Guppy=

"Men...!"

She turns and flees the cockpit, returning to the Medical Bay and locking the doors. Hyperventilating, She tries to calm herself down. Never had she been so close to death.

Wed Nov 30, 2011 10:28 pm by Jinx

Jinx listened as Capt. Mongoose explained that he and his men had the "cargo" under control, and from what she could tell from the security feeds, it did indeed seem that was the case. She was about to answer when another of her crew mates, Guppy the Aquarion woman who was their acting medic, made her appearance. The woman had begun to ask a question but almost as soon as she saw the men on board in the cockpit, she ran from the room with a frightened shout. Jinx raised an eyebrow as she watched the woman retreat in a hurry then looking back to Capt. Mongoose and with a gesturing hand, she spoke.

"And that was our medic, Guppy." She glanced away for a moment then back at Capt. Mongoose with a smile.

"There should be a stash of medical supplies, with some painkillers, in the cargo bay. If not then there's some in the med bay....though with Guppy's reaction, one of us may have to accompany you there. She seems to get a little....nervous....around men.

On a different note, we're ready to leave whenever you are."

Thu Dec 01, 2011 4:39 am by Jin'thor

*Mongoose watched as the female medic walked in then almost immediately stormed off. Mongoose kept a smile about him as he replied*
=Captain Mongoose=

I think we'll check the cargo bay for the meds first. And if it's alright, then let's get under way immediately, I shan't imagine our client will want to wait any longer

*Mongoose bowed then and left the cockpit, heading back down the ship's length and into the cargo bays, quickly locating the med supplies, he gathered them and went back to the common room and gave them to Ghost who went about trying to fix Eagle up so he'd make it to a bacta tank*

Fri Dec 02, 2011 11:26 pm by Jinx

She nodded her head once then handed Mongoose a datapad that had an account listed on it before he turned and left the bridge/cockpit. She watched him leave, before turning to the women in the room with a slight smile.

"Well ladies....looks like we're on our way to our first payday. We'll be ready to leave the planet in ten minutes or so. Any questions, comments, or worries before we go?"

Tue Dec 06, 2011 2:00 am by Jinx

With everyone seemingly ready to go, Jinx and Me'lia piloted the ship up into the sky and into Duro's orbit....

Arrival

*as the Elite scrambled squadron of the leaders watch the guarded shuttle touchdown before they take off to the ships once more. as the two guards in senate elite guard walk out leading forward the Duran senator and Monte towards a small tent
*
"Is this my residence?" monte spoke from behind his

"Silly jedi, yes this is your residence… but it is a multilevel underground structure."

"oh, and the tent it to keep out the pollution"

"yes. PROXYs, STAND ASIDE"

*suddenly two proxy droids changed from unprotected yellow zabraks to droids holding heavy savage Oppress-esque spears. as the pair enters the hut the two find a secretive elevator shaft in which they are detoxed from the surface weather.

Down bellow are several levels and amenities including a fully operation kitchen, a restroom, living room, master bed rooms along with smaller guest bedrooms, communication room, and a small meditation/ sparring chamber at the bottom of the tower.*
