STROST Reminiscence

[Dmitri]

OOC: This takes place prior to Aruetii.

A Star Destroyer orbited around the abandoned space station Fallline. It was called the Dominion and was the flagship of Grand General Lucifel. The ship's presence here was classified and wasn't even in any records. Instead, a false route had been submitted into the Imperial database that claimed the ship was going another way to Manda.

The truth, however, was that the ship had visited the space station Fallline first. It had been the site of many deviations of Geist Weiss and once again it would be used once more. Recently, 'Even Jelall' captured Brok Miran on the space station. Brok's ship had been flown into the Dominion where it would soon return to the base.

Another ship was in the hangar. It was a ship manufactured by Cipher Corporation, which Geist Weiss had ties to. It was very easy to falsify a purchase by Titus Skirata of this ship. It held one of the actors of this play and would launch second: ADIM Kadmon. One of ADIM's Machinas, a Verde-type, had been altered to have armor mirroring a Mandalorian named Titus Skirata.

As Brok Miran's ship booted up, Geist reviewed his data. The previous data logging Even and Brok's arrival earlier had been deleted and replaced by records of pirates. Another of the actors had already visited the designated bank. ADIM had persuaded Brok to join him unofficially, so no records would trace back to him. All the same, it was likely they would need to trash that Machina identity soon. Cipher Corporation's records of Eire's purchase was foolproof, as Geist didn't have to alter data, he could just add data as his admin powers allowed him to do so. No cameras or sensors worked on the space station so their presence would not be known.

Brok Miran's ship flew out of the Dominion first and entered the womb of the space station. Geist exited first, disguised as Lyco Miran. He had created an illusion to make it appear that Brok Miran was right next to him. Geist's accomplice was filling the role of Tach Enarai, whom had been captured at Tanaab, though official records hid this, making it appear that Tach escaped like Tsume.

Geist and his accomplice would be waiting about twenty-three minutes before ADIM in 'Titus' ship' would fly in. Lyco turned to Tach, faking a conversation. "I hear you faced that Twi'lek, Valenstein or something. The schutta defeated me at Geonosis a while back. I hope you gave him a good kick."

Royston cracked his neck as he applied his medicated lotions. He had been really pushing himself recently, and the last thing he would need right now would be for his skin to start cracking and peeling right in the middle of his next 'performance.'

It had been his previous 'job' that had left him in such relative disrepair. He had been on Muunilinst, and for some reason any time he shapeshifted as a Muun it gave him issues afterwards. It had been worth the pain, however, as he had been able to walk into one of the main branches of the InterGalactic Banking Clan unmolested - appearing as he had been as one of the bank's hundreds of senior Vice Presidents - and take all the time he needed to plant his information.

As a matter of fact, given Royston's genius level intellect and skill at this sort of thing, it had taken him just under 20 standard minutes. An account had been created in Titus's name and over half a million credits had been deposited. Of course, Royston was no amateur, and he was able to fiddle with the records enough to make it look like the account had come into existence just after Corden Vencu had defeated Lucius at the gathering of the Clans, and the money had been made to look like it had been deposited bit by small bit over time since then.

All in all, it had been one of Royston's easier jobs. The play wasn't over yet, though, and as the Sith Master finished with his lotions he looked at himself in the 'fresher mirror and grinned. At the same time, his skin changed, quickly becoming the features of Jedi Tach Enerai.

As he and 'Lyco' stood waiting, Royston listened to the comment made by his temporary companion and made a wry grin in return.

"Yeah, I had a little run in with Vhalanestilliegan on Tanaab. Let's just leave it at that..."

Royston/Tach let his comment trail off, settling into a slightly awkward silence as they awaited the next step in their plan.

'Brok' snickered at the dialogue between 'Lyco' and 'Tach', but quickly hushed after a glare from Lyco. Brok and Lyco were silent, almost awkwardly, for ten minutes until Brok said, "Either of you hear while Vier isn't with us on this assignment?"

Lyco shook his head. "I heard he was off doing something else, but I didn't hear much else."

Thirteen minutes later, a ship arrived. It had Mandalorian-like architecture, but was a ship of Cipher Corporation construction. A Mandalorian exited.

"So you're the guys I'm to take," 'Titus' said. "Get in. Let's not waste any time."

"Good, I hate awkward greetings," commented Lyco.

Lyco and Brok followed Titus inside Titus' ship. As they walked, Geist subtly pushed a button that activated a program in Brok's ship. The virus would wipe the navicomputer clean and other records of where it had been. Brok's ship would remain on Fallline for later discovery.

'Tach' remained silent as the Mandalorian arrived, waiting for the greetings to be out of the way before moving forward. He followed his other companions at a walk, his nerves as calm as could be and showing no outward sign of any pre-mission jitters.

The 'Jedi' seemed stoic and focused, and he quickly found a seat in preparation for the next step in the plan.
