The firespray set down inside the Interdictor's vast hanger bay.

A small group of officers walked across the vast expanse of black tiling to meet the captain, who, judging by the grin across his face,was quite pleased with himself.


<font color=red>"Mangar!!" <font color=white>Screamed one of the officers in the group <font color=red> "what in the hell do you think you are doing!?

<font color=purple>"Oh whatever do you mean General?"<font color=white> Laughed Dengro.

<font color=red> "You know perfectly well what I mean,half of this sector knows what I mean. You think you can just go around all carefree shooting rockets into spaceports? My master is very displeased with you!"

<font color=purple>"You can tell your 'master', that Janggar is dead, the rocket I sent down there obliterated the estableshment he was in,he is, no more."

<font color=red>"According to my master, he is alive,you failed Mangar!"

<font color=purple>"What!! What do you mean he's alive, surely he had to be dead after,"<font color=white>The General cut him off, <font color=red>"His presence still exists on the surface, and he has stumbled on the project. Janggar needs to be eliminated, now. If you complete this task my master will spare you rotton life."

<font color=purple>"Don't break a sweat, I wont fail you this time"


<font color=red>"I hope for your sake, you are right."


<font color=white> The group of officers shuffled of back across the cargo bay to a waiting turbolift.

<font color=purple>"Damn, force users, I hate them all!"<font color=white>Muttered Mangar as he stormed back into the firespray and headed back to tatooine.

Time seemed to freeze, and Kas stood still, his foot pulled through the door, and the air slowed to syrup. Light streemed through the door behind him, and flooded forward, lighting nothing past his hand.

So

Slow

Slow


slow


He drifted through space, time and the force. He saw Dengro Mangar in the alien ship, and he saw Ren with a pained look on his face, Corran looking up, and the law around the hole.

All


so


slow


He twisted through the space of the door, and fell to the ground with a <!--EZCODE BOLD START--> bump<!--EZCODE BOLD END-->

Time came to normal, and he looked around. Darkness so dark he couldn’t see, but he could feel.

Oil, slime, evil. He peered forward. Then back. A hand was stretching through the door, so slowly,

so


slow

Kas's presence had vanished from all of Ren's mental radar.

Reaching out as far as he could, Ren could not sense his friend's being anywhere, he was gone.


The cavern rocked momentarily, small junks of debris came loose from the ceiling above, laser fire could be heard outside.


Ren instructed Corran to get outside to safety, which he did swiftly and without question, then made one last attempt to reach Kas's spirit, something was blocking his path, pushing against his thought.

Before he could pinpoint the source, a series of green laser flashes seared across over his head, taking off what was left of the roof. Sunlight pierced the thick smoke above which was now billowing out into the hot tatooine afternoon.



Leaping up out from the cavern, Ren exited a split second before the floor gave way, covering the cavern below.

<font color=lime>"Kas!!No!!"<font color=white> Screamed Ren.


A pair of engines roared over the top of Ren's head, the shadow of Dengro Mangar's firespray loomed over the top of him, gun's pointing down. However the ship didnt fire, it simply hovered there.


The cargo door opened and the cold callous figure of the Captain stood laughing at Ren over the howling of the ships engines.


<font color=purple>"This is quite a mess isnt it Janggar?!!"<font color=white> Sniggered Mangar, <font color=purple> "Onboard my ship I have a rather large payload of Hex missles, I am headed for Mos Espa, if you hurry you might just catch me, HA HA haaa!!!"

<font color=white> Dengro let out an insane cackle before heading back into his ship and blasting out of Mos Eisley.

<font color=lime>"Hex missles??!!" <font color=white> Ren gasped, <font color=lime> "I thought those weapons died with the old republic, if he reaches Mos Espa, they wont have a damn chance, that heartless @#%$!!!!"<font color=white>


Ren sprinted towards the hanger bay where the GreyHawk sat as fast as his Jedi legs would carry him.



The Greyhawk's Engines fired into life, boosting the ship into the air and into the chase . . .

ooc:hey who ever said I was going to retreat. Oh well I guess I'll just use it to beat you to my X-wing.

ic:When Corran left the tavern it wasn't because he'd wanted to or needed to. It was because he sensed somebody coming with a malicious intent from the air. The second he was outside and out of the cantina he grabbed his comm unit and called his astromech recently renamed Niner.

"Niner are you there?" Corran yelled

"Of course I am where else would I be?" replied Niner

"Get your little tin can ass over here!" yelled Corran

"Fine. I'm coming no need to shout." said Niner

Almost immeaditly he saw his X-Wing appearing in the distance. Lowering it to just a few meters above ground Niner opened the cockpit. Leaping upwards his fingers managed to get a hold of the cockpit. Grunting with the effort he pulled himself up. Immeaditly he punched the thrusters without even bothering to strap in. Just as he was leaving he saw Ren begin to run towards the docking bay where his ship GreyHawk was held.

Using the force he sent a telepathic message to Ren.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> "Who's coming?"<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

Immeaditly Ren sent another message back.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> "It's ______ He has a load of Hex missiles on a Firespray!"<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> "Well don't you worry. I'll take care of him."<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> thought Corran.

He then turned back towards the view aheaad of him where he could see a few ships flying towards him.

"Niner Overlay any ship that looks like a Firespray class pursuit and enforcement vessel on my HUD." said Corran

Immeaditly the rightmost ship had a small red circle around it demostrating that it was a target.

"OK Niner I'm going to fire a few warning shots then I'm going in."

Corran's X-Wing screamed in on the Firespray firing orange lasers above it and steadily foorcing it down.

Almost immeaditly the Firespray began to move around and return fire. Suddenly the Greyhawk was there...........
