Letting the Cat out of the bag

[Revora Musana Kelborn]

Theme

The Mandalorian was keeping pace at her cell looking down at her cybernetic arm fueled with an anger that demanded to be satisfied. She was stuck her like a rat and she couldn't take it anymore. She wanted nothing more than to get out, to shed blood and make all that wronged her pay. There was an entire facility full of bastards who just earned their death sentence and now she was going to find a way to free herself and her brothers and sisters in bondage.

She was mad, staring out of her cell door and looking at the guard who kept his back to the door. They were constant with atleast one at her door at all times. If they needed to enter they would bring several to subdue her as she had already severely a guard while being held in captivity. She was proud of having nearly ripped out his jugular even if it meant time on the electric chair having her behavior 'corrected'. Atleast she had armor for better or worse even if it would taint her soul and practically force her into admonition.

The thoughts collected gain over her recent torture and rage overtook her as she punched the cell door with all the rage she could muster using her left cybernetic arm. Strangely enough when she did she would hear a beeping noise followed by the sound of the lock disengaging. The Kark?

The cell door opened and she saw the guard was turning around reaching for his vibrosword. She was faster though as she pounced on the man. Tackling him she would rip off his helmet and gauge his eyes out with her thumbs. The man screaming as she took pleasure in watching a Sith slave die.

He would reach for his sidearm but the pissed off Mandalorian would pin his arm down with his leg as the blaster discharged harmlessly into a cell door. Revy would wrench and snap the man's neck killing him.

She would then loot the sword and the pistol along with 2 spare power packs. An alarm would start blaring in the background and it was clear that guards were gonna start swarming on her. The Mandalorian smiled under the helmet. She didn't know if she would escape off of this shitehole or not, but she didn't care. She take down as many sons of bitches down on the way.

"Good, more meat."

 

[Sumas Solus]

It was high time Revy was saved. And who better than Crasher Badger?

An imperial shuttle flew into the atmosphere and towards the prison where Revy was being held. It had an older code but it still checked out, so no alarms would be raised just yet. Once it touched down the ramp opened but nobody was in there. The dock officer decided to inspect the new ship. But once inside all he received was a blade through the throat before his body was hidden in a cargo area. Sumas finished up with hiding the body and sneaked out of the shuttle, ordering the pilot droid inside to close up. Unfortunately, as he exited, the shuttle's sliding door hit him against the head, knocking him to the ground. Thankfully nobody was present to witness the moment...

Sneaking towards the side of the prison he looked for an opening in the defences then used his grappling gun to ascend up and over a wall before running to a spot that had an opening he could exploit. He needed to get into that prison as quickly and quietly as possible. His new rifle was ready to rock and his gear was all set(as in bio). But the alarm would start screaming. With little time, Sumas used the lightsaber at his side to cut a hole into a wall and breached into a hallway that was thankfully empty. The hole was big enough for his wookiee companion to fit through as well.

Despite the entire length of time, Sumas was on high alert. He hoped his comrades made it to the show, but regardless his head was on a swivel and he checked every corner for surprises.

Time to get his friend back...

[Shorwarr Kelborn]

Shor took a deep sigh as they entered in the base, grinning under the helmet while Sumas took down the officer and hid him in a cargo area. He quickly followed him and used the grapple if his armor to climb up. While Sumas was busy with cutting the door, he looked around to check any incoming guards. Surely the white Beskar'gam the Wookiee was wearing stood out, but well, he still had to decide its colours or earn them through combat.

Instinctively he ducked his head as he stepped through the hole, his Deck Sweeper in hand, checking the HUD for any issues. "I wonder where Revora is... This place is hu-" and the alarms started blaring in another section of the building. "Huh, perhaps we just got her position" he said with a chuckle, the translator tuned in Mando'a

 

[Sota Kriger]

Sota had returned to Korriban to continue his training, but was tasked with a week of guard duty at the prison, for his first week. He figured it had something to do with his training, but had not figured out what, as nothing interesting happened in the six days he'd been here, but finally an alarm sounded. Apparently a Mandalorian prisoner had attacked a guard and was attempting escape.

Sota was in the break room near the hangar when the alarm went off.

"Whoo!" He exclaimed, as he picked up his saber, Elduroxi, and Kastaoxi, strapping them to his belt. With that, he bolted out of the door, to find the blade of a lightsaber protruding from the wall ahead of him. Quickly moving behind the wall, he watched and waited to see who would emerge from the other side, with his own lightsaber hilt readily in hand, but not ignited.

[Roman Antilles (TL8)]

.

Ahh, so the Mandalorians wanted to play?

Good

A malicious grin watched at a distance when the prisoner attacked the guard and slew him, the sound of steel on flesh along with the smell of blood and fresh bodies ignited his natural hunger instincts. Turning through a corridor, Roman was about 30 meters away from the overly excited Deucalian as Sota went in a different direction towards the wall. At this point, the Sith was still unseen by any potential Mandalorian threats. There was no doubt in Roman's mind that the Mandalorian prisoner had invited some allies, after all, the warriors were known to rescue their own kind. It was an amiable gesture, one that was not shared amongst the Sith. In his mind, if the cat woman had been so weak to been captured, she was worth nothing more than a hole in the dirt.

Regardless, a little bit of fun was always welcomed. And as for the other Mandalorians? He was here to kill them. Assuming that Sota and the imperial agent didn't make work of them quicker. The hallway in which Revora escaped to was long, with multiple adjacent corridors as well as stone pillars and working stations for the guards. Intercepting her path forward however, would be a fear inspiring sight.

Roman stood, approximately 25 meters from the Mandalorian escapee; grabbed in the ebony armor as its polished surface glistened in the pale indoor lighting of the prison. Crimson lightsaber was already ignited in his right grip, held defensively at torso level while the force bubbled around his armored contours. It splashed and displaced, coiling around its master as his dark will, prepared to lash out when necessary. Roman glanced at the woman for a long moment, head tilting into an arrogant angle as if absent in thought. Slowly, the edges of his lips curled into a sinister smile as he began advancing towards her.

[Jayscreec Alecwit]

Jayscreec just walked past the hallway at the other end seconds before he heard the alarms go off. He quickly gathered himself and grabbed his long blaster rifle from the armory, though he carried all his gear.

The hallway where the hole was being cut was connected to the corridor through a maze of cells and rooms from where Roman stood.

Jay received intel through his comlink. He went around the blocks to get behind Revora, but yet he was 100 meters away from her.

The recon droid that followed Jay was connected to his comlink as well. "Stay here and be on guard."

[Kynigos Echthron]

.

Kynigos had been on Korriban contemplating his thoughts, and in his boredom he would go visit the prison. As he walked through the halls, eventually being near the cafeteria. In impeccable timing, the alarms would go off in the name of a likely break-in attempt. His adrenaline began to fire off as he rushed to find the source of the issue. To his expectancy, he caught sight of a preparation to counteract a breach as he transversed past the cafeteria, following Jayscreec to the breach point.

He already ignited his saber as the force enveloped him, ready to take down the escapee and anyone who opposed him or Jayseec. He was the same distance from Renova, and about 10 meters from Jay.

[Sumas Solus]

They had their exit point...now, all that was left was to find Revy and shoot anyone getting in the way of saving her from this stinkhole. "Come on, let's get moving." he said to Shor, keeping their communication to commlinks. The alarms couldn't be for them, there wasn't any cameras in that point to detect them. No, that must have been a prisoner escape.

Curious over if Revy had a commlink on her or not, he made sure to keep the commlink on a common channel they tended to use when working together. It was secure, only she and Shor would be able to hear him. "Snippy, you there?" he spoke as he ran towards the hallway to their right and kept moving straight. Who the hell designed a prison to come with complimentary drag strips for hallways?

As he moved, he was on high alert. But fortunately for him and Shor, their enemy wasn't aware of their exact position just yet. And the droid Jayscreec dropped wouldn't be able to spot them at all through the walls of the hallways. His jetpack was set to combat mode and ready to rock at Sumas' movements. He trusted Shor to watch their backs as they moved forward to try and find Revy. The markers on the walls indicated that the solitary cells were down this hallway. Odds of Revy being held there would be pretty high. With his rifle at the ready and his left index finger wrapped around the trigger, Sumas was ready to react if something were to surprise them.

[Revora Musana Kelborn]

Revy was surprised with how quick she got resistance in fact a part of her had assumed that the Sith were so pathetic that they wouldn't send one person to hunt her down. She was glad to see that assumption was wrong. Instead she saw the red glow of a saber, so bright and gleaming it was such a tasty trophy to get for herself. Mean this guy was standing in front thinking he was the embodiment of all evil or some trite bollocks. No he was simply the next person she would kill. "Come close if you dare." She would taunt at him.

Immediately she would retreat backpedaling away from Roman sword in one hand pistol in the other ready to react to whatever he may try. Her Jump boots would also be primed ready to fire off just in case. Moving as fast as she could she would fire two shots at his legs fully expecting to need to quickly sidestep or maneuver to dodge anything sent back her way. As soon as Revora reached the intersection with the adjacent hallway she would swing around it and continue moving backwards. As always primed and ready to respond to a attack

Briefly darting her head back down the hallway she would see the Mandalorian and his trademark dumbass spikes on his helmet. "Friendly, Don't shoot Susan!" Revy would call back to him before immediately turning her head back towards the end of the hallway. It was for only a split second meaning that Sumas and Shor would only catch a brief glimpse of her face and that Roman if he somehow had managed to get to melee range somehow wouldn't have the window needed to take advantage of her brief lapse in attention.

@KinkyPrawn @samdragon @Faded @Ediwa @ByakuyaXVTogami

 

[Shorwarr Kelborn]

The Wookiee breathed slowly and steadily as they walked through the corridor, looking around to keep an eye on their surroundings, especially behind them. While they did so, he prepared his dart pistol, and once done he held it, ready to shoot, alongside his Strill blaster pistol. "If that's alright, I'd avoid a fight. We could put them to sleep and perhaps lock them up in a cell" he whispered so his voice would be heard only in Sumas's communicator.

 

[Jayscreec Alecwit]

The escaping inmate's assumption wasn't wrong. Jayscreec moved quickly, and when he reached the hallway he crouched down, delighted to spot his enemy's back.

Would an inmate have any chances to succeed against a Sith, and not any Sith, Roman? Jay could laugh out loud if he read this in a report. He hoped that a surveillance device recorded this.

Jay raised his long blaster rifle and opened fire at Revora. He pulled the trigger twice with a very short delay between each shot while aiming at her.

"Die already," Jay mumbled as he tucked back into cover then activated his rebreather.

[Roman Antilles (TL8)]

.

Roman wasn't threatened by the two shots at all, their presence reflected only a mere second of inconvenience as his blade was twirled in a counter clockwise position to defend against them. The first bolt was caught on the tip of the weapon, deflected into the ground around him harmlessly while the second was caught on the mid-shaft, reflected with greater precision back towards its caster.

His armored form wasted no time and had already sprinted towards her during her taunt, deflecting the bolts while closing the distance. As the second shot was sent back, Roman utilized a quick burst of force speed to rapidly bring him into melee range. The ebony armor shimmered for a brief moment, appearing as a discernible blur only as he followed into a strike. Roman attacked from her right side, keeping his body out of the path of the bolts his ally had sent towards her back. Crimson lightsaber swung in a horizontal manner from her right to left near shoulder level. He was fully expecting her to counter with her own blade, though he had already registered the blaster pistol and had a defensive contingency in mind if she attempted to shoot him point blank.

This attack also came far before her reaching the intersection, interrupting her movements prior to her nearing the hallway where her allies were advancing. As such, Roman hoped it would prevent the two groups of Mandalorians from gaining a visual on each other. Lips licked with excitement, his heart racing as the thrill of combat sparked the inner passion of the Sith. Given his melee attack and those of his allies from different angles, there were considerable threats the Mandalorian would have to contend with, enough that he was confident she wouldn't be able to escape fully unscathed.

He did hope she would fight back, that was preferred obviously, for a Mandalorian that succumbed too quickly was unworthy of being slayed...

[Kynigos Echthron]

.

The battle had begun. In mere moments of the first firing he began sprinting at high speeds, the force catalyzing his approach to Renova. While he did this he kept his lightsaber guarding his exposed front in order to defend against any incoming blast fire. He would take not too long to cover the 100meters, and whenever he reached within 10 meter of Revy he would keep the force concentrated as he went for a diagonal strike at the mandalorian, intending to hit the major artery in the neck. If it were to miss then he would have the stimulation of the force to avoid any shots from her or anyone, either by deflection or the force.

@Ediwa @Faded @Caught in Strangereal @KinkyPrawn @samdragon

 

[Revora Musana Kelborn]

Revy was staring down Roman like she was a matador ready to deliver the killing blow to an angry, stupid bull. The bolt that got deflected back at her would be reflected back towards roughly her right shoulder but all it would take was a simple twist to the right to dodge it. Seeing the blur it would cause her to stop and seize for a strike. She had been expecting the Sith to try to stop her and well that would give her exactly what she wanted. A chance to spill blood. The stolen sword in her right hand would vibrate ready for anything as she quickly prepared her own maneuver.

What she was about to do was simple and elegant. Letting her forward leg bend and her back leg slide out as well as slightly bending forward she would quickly duck under the Lightsaber it would pass above her head and with the considerable momentum that roman had invested in both getting to Revora and the swing he wouldn't be able to quickly redirect it. Simultaneously with the duck Revora would swing across with her sword. The previous bolt dodge having rotated her enough to be roughly facing Roman. The blade would strike horizontally from his right to left just below his waist striking the upper thighs of his legs. With no armor to protect his legs it would easily be capable of slicing through them rendering him legless and with two substantial holes for blood to pour out from. Since this strike was happening while Roman was making his strike he wouldn't be able to counter it with his Lightsaber. The simultaneous nature of the duck and strike would mean the window of time he would have to dodge would be virtually nonexistent.

For good measure after delivering her strike she would quickly use her pistol to deliver a point blank shot into roughly his torso, side or lower back region depending on what presented itself. The shot happening half a second after the cut. Though Revy was prepared to abort this and try to deflect with her phrik plated forearm armor just in case A lightsaber strike was incoming. Unless Roman was some mythical black knight, the loss to his legs and subsequent shot to his intestinal region would likely put him out of the fight on pain and blood loss alone. If Roman somehow avoided all of that or tried to keep fighting Revy would be prepared to react to any move he would try to make.

With little time to react Revy's ears could process the unmistakable hum and whooshing of a lightsaber moving through the air. Turning around as fast as she could she would catch a glimpse of the blur heading towards her quickly closing the distance. With only a few seconds to process and react. She would need to keep her movements simple. She stood up ready to begin moving after the strike. If the rampaging sith strike wasn't interrupted she would be ready to raise one of her forearms to deflect each forearm plated with phrik. Due to the nature of the strike and where he wanted to target the only way to do so was a downward diagonal slash. If he struck for her left side she would raise her left forearm to deflect and use her right arm to perform a forward thrust with her vibrosword straight into his gut. If it was attacking her right side should deflect with her right arm and use her pistol to take a point blank shot into his unarmored leg. This wasn't even taking into account that the Acolyte would likely have built up a good amount of fatigue to arrive as quickly as he did which could inhibit his manipulation of the force and how effectively he could fight.

The shots from the imperial agent would turn out problematic for the Sith. As he needed to run 30 meters first just to get a visual on Revy. Kynigos in his eager rush to try to strike Revora would place himself directly infront of Jay's shots by the time he reached Revy. Jay would either need to abort his shots or risk injuring Kynigos. Also if Kynigos actions were interrupted and Jay was presented with a clear sight picture then Revora would prepare to dodge. At 70 meters away there would be a two second travel time for the bolts to reach their target. This would provide Revy with enough time even with heavy armor to quickly sidestep to the her right and avoid the first barrage and the second barrage would go high and hit the ceiling as a result of the recoil of the gun and the short time Jay had given himself between burst which would result in him not being able to resettle his rifle's aim.

@Faded @Ediwa @ByakuyaXVTogami @KinkyPrawn @samdragon

 

[Sumas Solus]

There was no answer over the comms. With a sigh he gpanced at Shor. "Come on, let's hurry up." he ordered before switching to flight mode and blasting down the hallway. The jetpack would cover the distance a lot quicker than the Sith in the other hallway and Sumas would reach the end of the hallway around the same time as the other acolyte decided to force dash down the hallway.

As the acolyte stopped 10 meters from another fight between two other people, he was about 6 meters from Sumas who was still in cover from them in the corridor of the hallway. A bit confused over the sudden appearance, Sumas levelled his rifle and fired twice at the new sith acolyte's back. Given his concentration was completely on mutated Revy and his lightsaber was ahead of him to block and strike, odds of defending were slim to none. Likewise, Sumas would track his target to make sure he didn't try to dodge, though at this near point blank range, that was also not likely going to happen.

His imparial friend would be firing as well and betray his location, though his rounds would be of little importance to Sumas. To make sure he couldn't bother them, the Zabrak threw an impact smoke grenade into the center of the hallway off to the right of his position. It would fill the width within seconds and completely obstruct the imperial trooper's view, forcing him to try a different approach.

All the while, Sumas kept his senses open for any surprises. If someone tried to get the jump on him or Shor, he would be ready for them.

OOC: I'm on mobile atm so if something is off with the post ask away if it doesn't make sense.

@Caught in Strangereal @samdragon @Faded @ByakuyaXVTogami @Ediwa

 

[Shorwarr Kelborn]

Shor nodded at Sumas's order, but jumped back at the sudden start of the jetpack, and grumbled something as he started running through the remaining of the corridor, his armor clunking faintly as he ran. He kept an eye to his surroundings, ready to attack with his blaster pistol or the dart gun if needed. Once he'd reach the end of the corridor (likely at the beginning of the next turn), he would get ready to give Sumas some cover!

 

[Roman Antilles (TL8)]

.

Impressive...he thought to himself, perhaps he'll have some enjoyment out of this after all.

Roman maintained his eyes on his adversary while also keeping in momentum with his movements during the attack. As such, he planted with the left foot and pivoted his right as his opponent ducked. She wasn't rapid by any means, and while she narrowly avoided a lethal strike, she was not so fast as to counter as quickly as she desired. His left hand opened as a force push blasted forwards, directed onto the chest of his enemy as they fought. The force attack wasn't meant to be damaging, but it did increase the distance between them such that her blade whistled through the air in front of his where his legs had been and disengaged the two combatants. Taking a step backwards with the left, he immediately snapped his blade downwards in a counter-clockwise angle and instinctively reflected the single bolt she had fired at near point blank range back towards her. @Caught in Strangereal Considering the distance between them, she would have virtually no window to evade this bolt. His accuracy may have not been the greatest, but that was okay, all he really needed was to pressure the Mandalorian while his allies took care of the rest.

His deflection also served to interrupt her upcoming defenses against his allies. Unfortunately for the Mandalorian, this also meant certain doom. Dealing with the bolt meant that it disrupted her timing against Kynigos' strike. Simultaneously, while she could side step the first of Jay's bolts, the second volley riddled her armored body even further.

Roman smirked as his sulfuric glare settled upon Sumas who had traversed the distance with his jetpack, crimson saber held defensively while a torrent of red lightning cackled around his left hand, hopefully serving to make the Mandalorians second guess their charge.

Spoiler: OOC

Edited to remove the autohit from Bya's attack after discussion on discard. However, the autohit from Jay's second bolts still stands.

@KinkyPrawn @samdragon @ByakuyaXVTogami @Ediwa

 

[Jayscreec Alecwit]

The first two bolts Jay fired missed. However, due the short delay between the shots Jay wouldn't have problems with recoil. The latter two bolts both hit Revora. Her armor burnt down and she got another lethal wound.

Sumas Solus could manage to throw his smoke grenade without Jay's interruption, but fifteen seconds to spread death would remain before the smoke fully prevents visual contact. Someone who grew up fighting for his life wouldn't let that time go amiss. Jay fixed his aim on Revora and fired again through the growing cloud of smoke.

Jay firmly tucked back into cover and reloaded his blaster rifle with a spare pack. "Coming around," he reported via his comlink, then motioned his recon droid to go ahead. The droid would move faster and take the first corner by the cafeteria. Since nobody stood in it's way, it would report nothing. Jay passed the armory as he ran.

@Faded @ByakuyaXVTogami @samdragon @KinkyPrawn
@Caught in Strangereal OOC: Writing that Jay can't hit due recoil is not an adequate defense in this case. I explicitly added a short delay between the shots, it's no longer shooting continually that might tear down the roof.

 

[Kynigos Echthron]

.

His blight was simple, as he dodged the first round of shots, his force speed making his position more unpredictable. He did go for the first saber strike, but he had to give up having it perfectly hit in order to avoid the shots ringing at him from Sumas. He then tanked the last shot simply, avoiding incapacitation. If Revy would’ve escaped by now, then he wouldn’t be surprised yet he still had killing intent. He would remain in his location ready for any possibilities, however.
