The Second K'ril Incursion (SW Saga, KotOR era) [IC]

Kacela wheels around and slashes at the droid for what is...one hopes...one last time.

(LOL! Invis Castle's down. I'll update tomorrow)

With a 'shoop' noise, Kacela lets her lightsaber turn off and surveys the room full of wrecked droids. She checks the burned spot on her tunic and winces as her fingers tough burned flesh. The blast hadn't been as good a hit as she'd feared...fortunately. Still, it was painful.

"We'll stop here for a few minutes to catch our breath, get some aid for our wounds and search this area. They might have been here to protect something."
 

"They recognized Devan and me, and concentrated most of their fire on you and me." Martina said, pulling out a medpac as she walked over to the Jedi's side. "I don't like what that implies."

She spends some time fussing over Kacela's wounds as she talks.

OOC: Martina uses First Aid on Kacela; Kacela takes back 20 HP. Martina and Theta are the only ones around trained in Treat Injury.
 

"That was all nice and that and I'm really the first for some post-battle-relaxation," Sianni says with an exaggerated wink in Theta's direction. "But the real fun is about to start only right now."

After poking the hole in her vest one last time, Sianni again displays her 'lektacular' agility by holding both blasters aloft only with her lekku while her hands move to exchange their power packs for untouched ones from the quick-load loops on her belt.

Both weapons loaded anew, Sianni whirls the blasters around her fingers and then lets them dangle by her side as she adresses Devan and Martina cheerfully. "You know what'd be really great? No? I'll tell you then. If both of you could slowly move your hands away from your weapons and back peacefully out of the hangar while the gang here searches the room and inspects the droids before either destroying them or sealing the room, now that'd be really great."
 

"You must learn to control your fear," Kacela tells Sianni. "Even in someone not attuned to the Force, it will lead you to your undoing. If it makes you feel better, I'll keep an eye on them and make sure they don't interfere. As it is, we'll recover from our wounds faster with their help."
 

"I don't need any lectures, Jedi," Sianni hisses back without taking her eyes off the Ijatsi pair, clearly annoyed at the Jedi's interference. "And this is certainly not because I fear anything - I've moved beyond that a long time ago. But perhaps you'll remember that I signed a contract. A contract with your Order and the Republic ... ring any bell? And one of its clauses was to keep this K'ril tech out of unwarranted hands and, frankly, there are no hands more 'unwarranted' than those of some minor armament company, looking to make a quick profit and perhaps move into the major leagues."
 

Tomalor, once the battle is over, cringes immediately. To hide his shame, and keep the Jedi from asking embarrassing questions, he immediately goes to work trying to identify the bits and pieces left over and see if anything might still be useful.

OOC: Not sure if there are relevant skills here, but that's his job.
 

Between blaster fire and lightsaber slashes, the remains of the droids are quite worthless as anything other than scrap metal. Tomalor might be able to find out what the droids were programmed to do by reading the memory of of a droid with an intact memory unit, though.

"We spent decades developing a whole new generation of starfighter engines because it just wasn't possible to get the power that K'ril ships had in anything else that existed in the K'ril Wars." Devan said. "If there were any K'ril secrets left that could be duplicated by anyone else, we'd have it already. Besides, war droids have never been a good value proposition; it's almost always cheaper and more effective to train soldiers."
 

Sianni puts on a look of immense (and exaggerated) surprise with her eyes wide open before snapping back to her usual cheerful self.

"Oooh ... peachy keen, then. So we won't have any problems with you doing what I said, right? I mean, you know everything about them - even if they apparently learned some new tricks if your wife knows what she is talking about.

Oh, and when they are done here, you will tell us why they were here, yes?"
