Open Event Decampment From Dantooine

[Darth Draugr]

It was like all the other days in this forsaken prison that the FWA's lackeys known as Rangers have him held in. He has spent months imprisoned by the Rangers and Jedi. They had taken turns with their mental torture, and their questioning. Xeno had been only fed enough to survive, he was weak. He had been gripped with force restraining cuffs to chains hanging from the ceiling. The room was designed for force users as well, being that the box itself has restricted his usage of the force as well. He was almost giving up on the Sith coming to his rescue, he was remembering that his fellow Sith had left him to fight the Jedi three on one. He was nothing but loyal to the Sith Order and they left him to be captured.

It has been hours since the last person had come by to wither give him minimal food, or to just insult him. Hanging from the ceiling and his head resting down, defeated. His legs weak and limp laid on the ground from the knees down. His left arm being help in the chain with tight grips so he wouldn't slide out of it. Plus he had tubes with needles injected into his body at the ribs on both sides, pumping him with sedatives. No one cared how he was doing, they only wanted to break him. If one was to look at him.. they'd say the Rangers and Jedi had succeeded.

The mental game was the worst out of all of it. He had been thinking to himself that he had never been able to gain Hrists forgiveness, even if she didn't love him back.. he couldn't help but still have the same feelings for her. He had wanted to apologize for failing her, but he didn't know if he would ever get the chance. Then he remembered Bir. As much as that Kel Dor had annoyed him, he truly did miss the sight of that crazy man. The only thing keeping him from dying was the desire to kill Artorigas for the party, and then Raze for throwing him from the party. He just kept thinking to himself that the Sith will come. They must.. they... must..

That was when the sirens began blaring. Soldiers ran by in front of him and he took notice. They had come, they didn't forget him.. he was going to be saved by the Sith from these wretched Jedi and Rangers. It was actually happening.

"I... knew.. it..."

Then Xeno had fallen back unconscious from the amount of sedatives being pumped into him.

This was not the first time the Sector Rangers and the Jedi Order had imprisoned a Sith. From what Byron has heard, the interrogated Champion was not kept in good conditions compared to past prisoners. The growing tension and resentment was clear but not necessarily something Byron shared. The stalwart Knight marched past the rushing guards towards the cell where the Zabrak was kept. His hearing caught wind of some muttered words, telling him he was awake.

The guards were running after sick dianoga which had an increased body temperature as it moved through the plumbing system of the prison. This tripped sensors and made the prison guards scrambling to try and kill the things. Meanwhile, Byron was going to weigh the options before him. He had his own to make

Lyra had been given an option even if she had not remembered it. There were certain options everyone deserved. The door to the cell opened and Byron stepped in to see the unconscious zabrak breathing with some measure of difficulty. The bearded jedi cocked his head to the side and stepped clozer until he was only a few feet away.
“Do you want to get out of here?”

[Senin Ravelo]

After months of planning and studying the facility where his Master was being held prisoner, Senin finally was executing his plan to release the Zabrak. After analyzing the prison staff schedule, the boy observed that the number of guards on duty that day was lower than on the others. He would only need some good distraction to cause chaos.

Senin found the perfect distraction when he discovered that there was a dianoga living in the plumbing system of the prison. The Acolyte managed to put certain toxic substances in the water where the creature lived that made it sick and aggressive. Soon it started to move in despair through the pipelines, tripping signals, destroying things and causing sufficient havok to make most of the guards go hunting for it. If not stopped, in its madness the creature would probably enter the prison.

With the signals in disarray, the young Sith entered the prison through the ventilation system. He crawled through it for some time, using a copy of the diagrams of the prison to reach where Xeno was being held. He had some difficult getting these plants, but nothing his pretty face couldn't solve

Senin was wearing a red plastoid armor, similar to the one used by the light armored Imperial guard of Palpatine. However, rather having a helmet it had a red hood that covered the boy's dark brown hair. His face was concealed by a traditional mask from his homeworld, used in some festivals. It showed only his blue eyes and made his voice muffled. As his face was not known in the galaxy, he hoped these precautions would continue to preserve his identity.

When he reached the area of the prison where his Master was being held, Senin removed the grid and jumped in the corridor. As planned, no guard was nearby. He started to walk to the cell where the Zabrak was being held, but stopped when he heard a masculine voice coming from there. Staying close to the wall, he walked cautiously to the cell entrance, wanting to identify who was inside.

As he hung, he could hear a voice coming from in front of him, waking him from his temporary unconsciousness. Opening his eyes, he'd look up slowly to see.. a Jedi? What exactly would a Jedi look to help the Sith in custody for? It made no sense.. The Jedi are the long time enemy of the Sith. Their morals and beliefs are not the same, they detest one another. The Zabrak looked at him with confusion and a slight hint of anger.

"Why.. would you... help me?"

It was exhausting to speak. His body was surviving on the minimum requirements for survival. Plus the sedation didn't help. He was groggy and would more than likely need a little bit to recover enough to walk. The pain coursing through wasn't sharp nor immense, just soreness all over. He hadn't moved his limbs or his body for some time now, his muscles and joints had become very stiff and that was why his soreness had come about. Xeno figure he could use this opportunity to make his escape, so of course he'd look at the Jedi and nod as he said,

"Yes.. let us.. get out of here.."

Byron straightened his head. Taking in a deep breath and letting his eyes blink a bit slower than normal. The Jedi Knight was not too surprised that Xeno's first instinct was suspicion. Sith were prone to paranoia and it seemed like a miserable way to live. The bearded jedi did not immediately reply and paced clockwise around the Sith until he was behind him where he could also access the Zabrak's restraints, of he so chose.

Reaching out into the Force as he moved, the Jedi sent a faint fizzle through the security surveillance system in the room. The cameras would glitch for a few minutes before coming back online. The real worry was that the security would notice and come to the cell. It meant there was only a few moments for Byron to hear how Xeno replied to what came next. The Sith accepted his offer despite his silence until this point.

Unclasping the hilt of his lightsaber from his belt with his right hand, Byron would reply with a sympathetic tone. "I'm offering you more than one way out." A snaphiss of the lightsaber rapidly extending to make it clear what he now meant. The humming orange blade held out and to his right. But Byron's eyes were drawn to the door, glancing with his focus only momentarily. Maybe because he was expecting guards to eventually come through. Maybe it was something else. Regardless, Byron would hear what the out of sorts Sith would have to say in response. These could be his last few moments, afterall.

[Senin Ravelo]

Senin heard his Master talk with the man. Xeno's voice seemed so weak, the young man never heard him talk this way before. It was so strange, the Acolyte wondered what they did with the Zabrak. Had the Jedi tortured him?

From what he could understand, the man was offering help to free Xeno. Senin raised an eyebrow at that. Why would this man want to set him free? Whatever the reason, the man would surely want something in return. One of the many things that the Acolyte learned when he was a street urchin was that no one would offer help without asking something in exchange. Even his adoption by the Ravelo only happened because they wanted a heir that was a Force user.

His musings were interrupted when he felt the man use the Force. The Acolyte held his breath, this only could mean two things: or this person was another Sith or he was a Jedi. Before breaking into the prison, Senin had sought to know that there would be no Jedi there today. This made things even more bizarre. Why do a Jedi want to free a Sith? Then he heard the sound of a lightsaber being activated. Not trusting the Jedi, Senin decided to reveal himself.

“Well, isn't it interesting? A Jedi helping a Sith! If I tell someone about it, they will think that it’s a caô.” he laughed at the situation, the slangs and accents of his homeworld, G’wenee, always present in his voice “It looks like I came here for nothing. Que chato!” He looked at his Master on the floor “You look terrible, Xeno.”

Now face to face with the Jedi, the young man could see how he was. “Well, senhor Jedi, are you really going to release him or is it only some sort of plan? If it’s the latter...” the boy pulled his lightsaber from his armor's belt, but not activated it “You have a fight coming.” He hoped to be strong enough to at least hold off this Jedi.

“By the way, você é bem gostoso!” he winked at the older man, while smiling behind his mask. He couldn’t resist the urge of flirting. What could he do? Beautiful things should be praised. However, he doubted that the Jedi would understand what he said.

@Scoobert @Darasuum

 

[Darth Draugr]

As a blade had been ignited behind him, he felt his heart beat faster. This was how Xeno dies? All of this time in prison and he just dies without anyway to defend himself? The Jedi really did become nothing but a large group of cowards. Had to kill a Sith while he was chained up. How pathetic. Though, without the ability to defend himself he would hang and rest on his knees hoping that he was only imagining that his death would come this way.

Just then he heard the voice of his apprentice. As much as Xeno was worried for the boy being there alone, he knew that they would be fine as they have been training with Xeno's close watch on him. Then the boy had told the Zabrak how bad he looked. Of course, he already knew he looked bad. He felt bad. The shape he was in was not the best as it was torture to be there any longer. With the threat of the Jedi he knew that he would need to find a way out of the cell to begin his healing process, but if his rescue party was just his apprentice then he would need to rely on them alone to escape.

"I still.. look... better than.. you.. boy."

Xeno looked up as he chuckled slightly before breathing heavily again to catch his breath. It was terrible yes, but he figured if his apprentice could successfully get him cut from the chains and defend him as he escaped. The two would be just fine enough to make it off Dantooine and into Sith custody once more.

Byron was not all too surprised by the appearance of someone new. But it was sooner than he had expected, and not a guard. It was a man with out any weapons though the familiar sight of a lightsaber hilt at his belt told Byron enough. Likely they were behind the distraction with the dianooga.

Byron's free hand tightened into a fist, building the focus of power into the appendage. The words of the man were foreign but the Knight was able to extrapolate enough to understand the gest of his meanings. He was pretty sure the man was either flirting or threatening him.

When the Sith brandished the lightsaber in his own hands, the Knight moved and did so slowly. He walked around from behind the restrained zabrak with humming lightsaber in hand. It continued to cast a long shadow that dominate the left side of the Jedi as he stopped a few meters away. "I'm free right now." The orange column of energy in one hand reversed direction, returning to its hilt and darkening the room further. He met the acolyte the same way he had been approached. But it was also giving the dark sider a moment to evaluate the situation. Byron was confident in his own abilities. He would see how the masked stranger fared in the moments to come.

@Scoobert @LouJoVi

 

[Senin Ravelo]

When the Jedi started to slowly walk in his direction with the lightsaber activated, Senin knew that he would need to fight this man. If he could release his Master, perhaps the two could defeat him. However, the way Xeno had answered him, made the G’weneen notice that the Zabrak was a drugged. Even if the young man released his Master now, he would be useless in a fight.

“Do you know, senhor Jedi, I never saw an orange lightsaber before. Ele é bem maneiro.” he started to slowly walk towards his master, at the same time that he circled the Jedi, annalyzing him. He decided to continue talking in an attempt to distract the older man “But where are my manners, I haven't even introduced myself! You can call me Arlequim.” he decided to use the name of the character that the mask he was wearing represented. “What is your name Senhor Jedi? If you don’t tell me I’ll only call you as gostoso!” Senin winked at the Jedi once again.

“You never planned to free him, certo?” he stopped to watch the other man's reaction. Senin continued walking, being careful with what he was saying. “You wanted to kill him. Interessante, I always thought that the Jedi would never kill someone that couldn’t defend themselves. Perhaps you are falling to the Dark side!” the Acolyte said this last part as if he had discovered a secret. “Are you falling? Perhaps if you fall, we could go on a date. After all, you said that you are free!” he was going to use the ambiguity of this phrase against the older man “I would love to get to know you better, gostoso.”

By this point he would be behind Xeno. The Acolyte strengthened the grip at his lightsaber, would be now or never. Everything happened fast, Senin activated the saber, its blood-colored blade illuminating the room with red, and with only one slash he cut the Zabrak’s restraints, releasing him. Then, the young man jumped over his Master and landed in front of him, adopting a defensive stance. “What do you think if we play a little, gostoso?“ Senin was waiting for the Jedi to make the first move, he only needed to hold him for enough time until his Master recovered.

"What is your name Senhor Jedi? If you don’t tell me I’ll only call you as gostoso!”

The armed Sith entered the prison cell further and began to circle Byron. The stranger spoke as he moved. His tone confident but the words were silenced by the muscular left hand opening a flatten palm rapidly. The wave of telekinetic energy would have enough kinetic force to break bones and even knock the man out if he was not prepared. It was aimed to throw him back against the wall that shared the door to the cell.

The Knight knew they were inexperienced and quickly immobilizing the individual was the best course of action. The man followed it up by raising the hybrid saber and firing two stun bolts towards the Sith. With heavy slam, Byron expected him to be thrown off balance enough to not defend well against the double tap of stun bolts that came from the previously ignited lightsaber hilt.

@Scoobert @LouJoVi

 

[Senin Ravelo]

Senin stopped talking immediately when he felt the man use the Force. The Acolyte barely had time to protect himself when the wave of telekinetic energy hit him. He ended up hitting his back against the wall, but at least his bones were intact.

Still shaken by the Jedi's attack, Senin looked at the other man and his eyes widened. He saw the Jedi use his lightsaber as a blaster. A lightsaber as a blaster! He activated his own saber to deflect the shots, barely being able to do that. Now the Acolyte really doubted that he would be able to hold off this man and save Xeno.

"Well, I didn't expect that. Your lightsaber is really irado, gostoso!" he held his own in a defensive position. He was close to the door and starting to feel tempted to leave the Zabrak there. He could always find a new Master, but still the Jedi would probably come after him. However, he still had more cards up his sleeve.

Senin gathered the Force around himself, in an attempt to not fall in another of the older man's attacks. "Did you know, gostoso, that there was more than one Dianoga in the prison's sewers? It's really sad that the guards going down there don't know that." he said with satisfaction, he wasn't being playful anymore. If the Jedi could see behind the Acolyte's mask, he would notice a sadistic smile. "Did you know that the Dianogas are sentient? I could feel their pain and fear when the toxin started to affect them." he was still in guard, waiting for the Jedi to attack "Foi delicioso!"

"They usually aren't aggressive, but after I 'played' with them these things are probably going to be more violent than a rancor!" he laughed maniacally. He was trying to toy with the Jedi's conscience. "I imagine that all the guards going there will end up being killed. Can you imagine how many families will suffer with that? Tão triste! he faked sadness while talking.

"Well at least the Dianogas can't escape the prison's sewer, right? Imagine what would happen if these things start to run like crazy across the entire sewers of Dantooine! How many people would not end being taken by them and killed. Seria tão irado!" by this point the Jedi would be able to notice that Senin's eyes changed from blue to yellow. "Thank goodness that since they are so angry, these creatures will have strength to easily break the floodgates. Vai ser uma festa! "

"So, gostoso, what do you prefer to do? stay here trying to defeat me or go save the guards from the Dianogas?" he said, watching the Jedi's reaction. "A part of me wants you to stay, only to feel the suffering that will come when the guards start to die!"

Byron watched the man get slammed against the wall but recover. His saber caused the stun bolts to despite on impact with the crackling blade. The Knight was as experienced and skilled as most Masters in the Jedi order and knew that if the Sith neophyte wanted to try him further he would be met with only greater resistance. The hybrid-hilt of the jedi remained inactive but leveled at the harlqeuin the outstretched sidearm. For one thing, Byron was actually not the best shot with blasters but at this close of range it was not an issue for the armature marksman.

The apprentice to the Zabrak continued to speak. The mask that hid his mouth did not hide the fact that Senin's tone was smiling maliciously. If there had been guards close by they may have heard his blaster shots but the stun bolts were not as loud or pronounced as lethal bolts. The dianoga was something he had felt, something he was concerned with and had also thought about manipulating to serve his own purposes. The Jedi kept that to himself however as he did not want to indulge the talkative dark sider.

"They usually aren't aggressive, but after I 'played' with them these things are probably going to be more violent than a rancor!"

Byron was aware many Sith were sadists but he also was not sure if there was more than just the Acolyte presence. "Anybody ever tell you you talk too much?" He said and lunged forward, firing a single stun shot as he closed the distance while his free arm honed itself to become more durable and stronger with the force for what came next. Byron's finger flipped the activator for his custom lightsaber mid-stride, disabling the blaster functionality but causing the orange blade of the lightsaber to extend only to half its normal length and extend into a shoto.

Once within striking range, the muscular jedi launched a left hook with the enhanced arm and body. If even blocked, the single punch would be more devastating than the broad telekinetic wave from earlier. If a swing from the acolyte's crimson blade came towards him, the orange shoto and his gauntlets would move in to block the energy blade away. Byron had struck stone and other objects in the past with his matukai gauntlets. In the brawler's mind this would even break the concrete walls behind the acolyte, let alone if it landed on the jester's person. It would not be the first time he had performed a one hit knock out on an opponent that weighed less than him.

@Scoobert @LouJoVi keeping this moving, not sure if Xeno wanted to comment as an observer

 

[Senin Ravelo]

Senin already had an answer ready to give yo the Jedi, but had to concentrate when the other man fired another stun shot at him. Without much time to react, he used his lightsaber to deflect it. Then he felt the Jedi use the Force again, concentrating it on his arm and getting ready to punch the Acolyte. The young man figured that if the punch hit him, it would probably be the end of it.

When the man was getting close to a striking range, Senin would jump to the right towards the door, in an attempt to avoid the punch. If the Jedi attacked him with his lightsaber, the Acolyte would block it with his own. If he was successful in avoiding the punch and the saber, the young man would be in front of the cell door. Then he would stay in a defensive position, waiting for what the Jedi would do next.

@Scoobert @Darasuum

 

[Darth Draugr]

Hanging from the chains, Xeno felt helpless as his apprentice had to face an opponent he was not yet ready to encounter. It was annoying, because Xeno knew he could help if he wasn't so weak. It was not a good look for his apprentice to fight a Jedi of this level. Especially with only the basics being taught by Xeno. The only thing worse than this feeling is the way his body is being sedated. He was trying to fight it off with his anger, though he was not able to gain the strength he was looking for.

"Be.. smart.. with.. your.. move..ments.. boy.."

Xeno tried to keep his eyes focused on the fast movement of the two fighters. It was impressive that Senin had lasted this long, which was a reason Xeno chose him. You can always expect the unexpected with him. Just as long as he doesn't die, Xeno should be able to try and make an escape.

Byron hand slammed into the wall cleaving a chunk of the rock and scattering stone shrapnel chasing after the acolyte's dodge. The Knight stepped towards the wall he had struck and spun to face Senin, placing one foot against the wall and pushing off. The distance between them needing to be closed but only slightly.

Extending his shoto saber as he lunged, an arc of electricity would run from the emitter of the handle and down the length of the hilt. The acolyte would only have a moment to react and was on the backfoot. But the focusing of the electric judgement down the shortened lightsaber would blast the retreating Sith even as moved away from his master. The effort behind it was matched only by a bellowing yell that came with the electrical bolts.

Once regaining close range, regardless of whether or not the dark jester dodged it or was hit, Byron would drop the electrokinetic channeling. As quickly as he had fired the electric judgement it ceased. His shoto blade was better suited for being defensive in close quarters. The ranged attack simply to maintain an offensive front. The only place for him to go was back out into the hall, into the corner of the room, or to move closer into Byron's guard to catch another left punch followed by a low spin with his shoto blade in a high guard. Each came swiftly and without degraded might.

The possibility of the masked acolyte losing a limb if not more was high. But right now he was not doing anything to save his master other than to try and wear down Byron's patience or stamina. Neither were in low supply as the acolyte would find out. Meanwhile the drugged zabrak tried to give advice over the Knight's shoulder. He wasn't wrong. Sith didn't tend to practice Form III though from what he understood.

@Scoobert @LouJoVi sorry for the late reply
