___No sooner did Elidan finish signing than the lights in the building went out. Any screens in the room flickered and distorted into static and white noise before they flashed with various images. A red screen with a black, pixelated, low-resolution caricature of a lady with a crazed smile...
Master Valtiere didn't leave Shaw waiting in suspended silence for long, wondering if he had passed or miserably failed the test. No, Shaw still didn't know if he had passed or failed, but he wasn't kept waiting in silence. Not until it was a silence of his own making anyway. Matching the older...
Terek stood, hands clasped behind his back, in the antechamber of the temple. His normal lackadaisical disposition had been replaced by one of general concern. The reports he’d read on this planet didn’t mention any sect of the Elloran people that practiced the dark side of the force and yet, he...
Location: Sernpidal
___In a dark basement, a young lady sat at a table with a man bound and gagged in a chair, completely immobilised. Between the two laid a Pioneer slug pistol.
___"One in the chamber."
___With a smile, the lady reached out and grabbed the pistol. She twirled it on her finger...
Taco
Okay! Time to play! This is gonna be a great game, hey! Except…oh wait…right…if I lose this game called Liar’s Dice then…what happens again?
Taco is lost in thought about it. He reminded himself what the hell was going on as he caught sight of an Ewok dancing in a thong onstage. Oh...
Kamelle
There comes a time in a woman’s life when she has to realize that something just isn’t working quite right. Maybe it’s her mind. Maybe it’s the time that she is living in as her past rewinds behind her eyes, life passes her by, and she’s thinking ‘Why why why?’
As the music shifts...
If he was prepared to work with a crew, then this young man was ideal for the sort of tasks he had in mind. Plus, his clear stench of desperation was something to be abused, and heartily so. Lower payments could be offered, and more risky jobs could be issued. The man was expendable but did not...
Master Kedo hesitated. Although the Padawan's words were muffled, he could still hear her. Now that the Pangoli had a moment to examine the Vulture, it didn't seem very dangerous. More…scared? "Very well," he muttered, keying his comm. "I need four guards and a tech team on landing pad thirteen...
The First
Somewhere on Coruscant . . .
“All right, down and dirty,” one man of six said at one end of the table in a hotel room amid music from a speaker system. The table was suitably shaped like a ring, a circle so round that it allowed an equal position for all men seated at it. Six...
Master Kedo read the messages on his datapad as he walked. When he read the words 'like a fighter model,' he cursed internally. The Separatists only had one droid like that: Vultures. When Alienor mentioned that it kept saying meeko, the Jedi frowned. Hardly normal, but maybe the ancient droid...
Meeko tilted his head to the side. "Meeko?" he beeped. This communication thing wasn't his strongest skill. Then the nice lady went to do something else, and the Vulture droid was immediately distracted by a butterfly, which he watched intently.

Master Kedo was looking through the archives...
Terek couldn’t help but smile as the team got to know each other. There was more than a little magic in the enthusiasm of youth. It was infectious and he found himself wanting to clown around more than he wanted to be the boss… but that was the burden of leadership… aw, who was he kidding he...
To Connor's possible surprise, the shadow creatures didn't seem to be edging in for an immediate attack. Instead, he would hear the fainest whispers in his ear. Connor wouldn't quite be able to understand what they were saying, both because of the just-barely-there volume and the shadows were...
The mission was called off and fizziled out as Sith began leaving out the way they came in. All of the Sith were alive. Some worse for wear than others of course, but they would all be able to escape. Occidius is alive as well.

Terek watched as the group finally gathered. If he were being honest it took everything in him not to call out, “Padawan’s Assemble!” When they’d arrived, but to his credit he’d somehow managed to remain professional. He gave the guys a few minutes to trade salutations. It was important to build...
