Given the speed at which a proton torpedo moved, it was almost imposible to shoot it down - let alone give a command, and then coordinate three seperate weapons firing to disable it. Theoretically, such an act was possible, but practically, it simply was not. The torpedo continued unabated...

And just like that, the apporaching ship canged its course, on a direct collision with the convoy. From his vantage point, Darwin saw the ships escape pod launch - and put two and two together, the ship was on a ramming course, and so he did as his training commanded, and attempted to disable...

Following protocol, Darwin Antilles activated the inter-ship communicator, and gave a clear instruction "Unidentified vessel, alter your course three points port immediately." he spoke, briefly switching off the communicator, and activating his fighters weapons in case things went south, before...

"Yes," Darwin sighed at the protocol unit as it flailed its arms at him in protest "...I am aware we are delayed, I just want you to tell me why - is that so hard?" the aging Senator rolled his eyes, as he stood in a Pilots Suit next to a collection of ST-9 Starfighters brandishing his pilots...

The First-mate was clearly taken aback by his line of questioning, and rightly so - it had rather come out of the blue, but after all, that was why he was here. Darwin saw himself as the person on this panel who was there to peel back the uncomfortble layers, and weedle out the truths...

Once again Senator Antilles kept his silence as the inquiry continued, waiting for the newcomer to finish her piece. There was something off about her, the way she spoke of the dead civilian, as if she new him more directly than being a mere crewmate. He kept his silence until she came to the...

Well at least she arrived on time, Darren smirked to himself, not turning to face the approaching Senator, focused as he was on his conversation with the media mogul, Baron Yas'ghuul - a member of the upper classes, and a Curzonite snob of the highest level. Good evening Senator Antilles. How...

The Fontelli Operatics College had been something of a fixture in Coruscanti high society for the past two centuries, and as such Darwin Antilles had ensured that his meeting today would be held in the private box reserved for him, which commanded a good vantage point over the rounded stage...

Darwin said nothing as the witness balked at the panels supposed lack of military experience. Having spent his twenties in the Alderaan Defence Force, as a serving Officer, he was not all that pleased. Taking out his old commission book, proving his service record, he handed it to a guard, who...

Senator Antilles had been silent, throughout Bretharr Bargalls statement, and through Senator Peyvands questioning, however he could not keep his silent when the defendant began to raise his temper, and his voice. Gently, Darwin coughed, indicating his willingness to speak - silence filling the...

Senator Antilles did not like hearings, often long and dull affairs - and all to often used for the scoring of political points, and the detriment of the less fortunate, or at least the less politically capable. Passing through usual rigors of Security checks around such hearings, Darwin took...

Clearly the man had not been keeping up to date with the recent happenings in the Senate, much of which was filmed and thus public access. Darwin however, was not one to insult what appeared to be the only media opportunity to which he had been exposed for weeks - and as the results of the vote...

"Sir, Senator Antilles," Darwin took the hand when offered, grateful for the kindness shown by this apparent stranger, and rose to his feet. A quick glance at the man, and his next words, did show some motive for his kindness - but it would serve both their purposes. "My thanks," the Senator...

"How dar...." Darwin was cut off, as he was thrown, quite literally, down the last few steps of the senate, the 79 year old man barely managing to stop himself from careening to the floor, catching himself with his cane in a desperate bid to prevent injury. "Disgraceful!" he shouted, as his hat...

"Guards, remove Senator Antilles from the Chamber. He has said his piece, and when he calms down he may participate in a different hearing." the Chancellor made his proclamation known and Senator Antilles (who stopped sitting down once the Chancellor spoke) allowed his disgust to be heard - for...

"My world was attacked by the Cartel, my people cry out for justice, for action." Darwin visibly rolled his eyes as the Senator of Chandrila continued his speech, talking about how a wide-scale conflict was a good idea if the loss of life could be mitigated. Darwin was hardly shocked when...

He was speechless. Darwin Mortenson Antilles was actually speechless. The Senator for Fondor was genuinely attempting to say that the Hutts did not have a Navy. "You can..." Darwin practically stammered "...you cannot be serious?" shock was apparent on his face "I mean, really?" he labored...

Darwin stood up, and asked one question only "Senator Kithar, if you do not feel that our Navy is strong enough to 'police with'," he quoted the man directly "...why do you think it is strong enough for a war?"

Tension was high in the rotunda, of that there could be no doubt, and Senator Antilles allowed his gaze to wander to Senator Peyvand, who appeared to remain silent as if in thought. He turned his pod, and spoke directly to her "Senator, please - peace is not forged in the fires of conflict. This...

"Sir, you have clearly taken leave of your senses." Darwin retorted "So thirsty are you for war, that beyond mere rhetoric, you have not made a single point to support its execution, you have ignored - utterly - any suggestion that other options are open to us. Senator Kithar, you are quite...
