The Teegeeack Saga...

[Damocles]

Drake looked at Jor then Kamille leaned in to Drake "What does that mean?" He asked about the force thing until Jor confirmed it to Runt "Well, that clears that up" Kamille said as he pulled out his saber hilt ready for a battle. Drake walked towards the forest before stopping, he put his hand out to stop everyone else "Shit, looks like one of them found us" Drake said to them as Racoom walked out of the forested area and stared at the three jedi. "MY NAME IS RACOOM IT RHYMES WITH DOOM AND YOU'LL BE MEETING YOUR'S ALL TOO SOON" Racoom said doing stances as he rhymed.

Kamille looked at him "Are you serious?" He questioned he looked at Jor and Drake "I can handle this guy you go after Vince, and I'll catch up" Kamille said to them.

[MikDaTv]

When Racoom jumped out and did his dance, Jor could do nothing but stare. It was ridiculous. Kamille offered to stay and take care of him while Drake and Jor went on. Jor shook his head. "We stick together. No telling how many more of… these guys vince has waiting for us."

Jor drew Neeja and aimed it at Racoom. "Hey, Racoom! Bite me." he said and opened fire.

"This place is amazing." Genie said, looking around. The Ratakan facility was truly one of a kind.

John nodded in agreement. "I've never seen the like. There is a power source somewhere ahead. Lets find it."

Genie plucked a flashlight from her belt and turned it on. The Ratakan facility was functional but it didn't recognize them. all the light were still off.

John held his staff in his left hand and activated his lightsaber in his right hand. They ventured a few hundred feet into the facility until they came to a circular room. At it's center was a silver and gold archway hooked up to computer consoles. John looked it over like he'd seen it before. In fact the feeling of deja vu he'd been having felt its strongest when looking at the device. "That is… not Rakatan."

Genie approached it and touched the archway. "No, it doesn't look Rakatan. It looks… i don't know. never seen anything like it before."

"search the room. See if you can find anything else. I'm going to try my hand at the console." John said and approached the consoles hooked up to the archway. The console activated at his touch but strange words played across it's screen. He didn't understand the language. It was probably more ancient than he could have imagined. "I guess this will be harder than i thought." He said.

The console seemed to respond to his voice. the Alien characters disappeared and a slot opened up in the side of the console. John realized it was just big enough to hold a datapad. He leaned his staff up against the console and pulled his datapad out a pouch on his belt and slid it into the slot. The console accepted it, sucking the pad in and making a noise. The characters on the screen began again but this time in basic.

[Program ready….]

[execute…. y/n?]

[Power levels minimal. emergency generators locked in.]

[For the power and glory of the Infinite Empire]

John shrugged and selected "y"

turbines began to spin up and the lights sprang on. He could see on the console power levels begin to raise. Whatever was happening, required a lot of juice and all the facilities generators were kicking on. "Genie… might not want to touch anything."

[Damocles]

Racoom laughed when the little one said he would handle him "That's funny little man! Fine lets see what you got!" he yelled when suddenly Jor shot at him Racoom moved out the way of the blast only to be kneed in the face by Kamille making him stumble back, Racoom growled and tried to grab Kamille's leg but Drake grabbed him by the face and slammed him into the ground both Drake and Kamille jumped back after their combined attack. "Easy enough" Drake said laughing some. He dusted his hands off suddenly Racoom shot up and grabbed Drake by the face and threw him through the forest.

"Master!" Kamille yelled as Racoom pulled out a light saber and swung at Kamille forcing the padawan to fall back next to Jor. Racoom laughed "RACOOM DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING, NEXT TIME RACOOM WILL BE ON HIS GUARD" he said pulling out second light saber.
___

Jayne and Nonppa continued to look through the temple they had stumbled up on "It is not here!" She yelled in anger as she stomped over to the guy who sent them in the direction "You're a fool, what was it that you thought you saw that led us this way?" she questioned, the man clearly frightened showed her "We thought it maybe here as it was the only place that seemed like a house of worship in this area" he said.

"There is a good chance that someone found the orb and moved it to one of the industrial factories" Another soldier added Jayne looked at him "Good point double or efforts spread out ever factory in the immediate area, find that orb and find it soon" she said.

___

Vince and the last three members of GINYU walked into a small city like district probably where workers used to live. "Well this seems like a perfect place to set a trap" GINYU said Vincent laughed "A perfect lay out for a final confrontation with the Jedi" he laughed.

___

Drake slammed into a tree and slid down it "Ouch" he grumbled as he cracked his neck.

[MikDaTv]

"Did Racoom see this coming?" Runt asked out loud as he pulled the trigger on his sniper rifle. The high powered sniper rang out with a loud blaster shot and was soon followed up by similar blaster shots fired from the rest of Grey Team. Senior fired controlled bursts from his rifle. Tank fired blasts from his ACP Scatter gun and Tank fired semi auto from his own rifle.

Jor frowned. He could still sense Vince. More to the point he could still sense Vince's confidence. Racoom was just a delaying action. something to keep them busy while Vince prepared for the Jedi's arrival.

He took aim with Neeja and fired a few shots as well, trying to overwhelm Racoom's defenses and hopefully push him back.

[Damocles]

Racoom growled as his arm was hit by the blaster fire from the sniper rifle, he fell back into the forest trying to deflect as many as the bolts he could with his sabers. "RACOOM KNOWS WHEN HE'S OUT NUMBERED" Racoom said as he turned to make his way deeper into the forest.

Kamille stared on "How much you want to bet that this is a trap?" He questioned Jor "I say that that big guy was meant to lead us through the forest, probably to some ambush or something" he said thinking outloud not really expecting an answer. "Master!" Kamille called out hoping that Drake would answer. When there wasn't one Kamille sighed "Great, and I bet he's run off to go and find Vince all on his own"

___

Vincent smirked as he sat in an old tavern must've been somewhere for the workers to cool off on the planet after work. There was no alcohol left but well he could wait out Jor there, he figured the old man would be there soon to greet him. "Great, looks like the drunkard got here first...Jeice, Burter, would you handle him please?" he questioned.

Drake looked around outside, it was weird this planet was all over the place he could have sworn they went from desert to forest to city in about 5 miles, "Jor, Kamille, I've made it to some sort of small town, I think Vince maybe here" he said to them over his com.

"You would be correct in thinking that" someone called down it was a tall guy wearing blue, he was standing in front of Drake "PREPARE TO FACE THE GINYU" another voice yelled in an Australian accent, Drake turned around seeing a short guy in red standing there. "Great" Drake mumbled to himself.

[MikDaTv]

"No bet." Jor said, agreeing with Kamille. "But knowing the trap exists is the first step to avoiding it. I can sense Drake, he's ahead of us, out of the Forest I think. Honestly on a planet as dry as this I'm surprised to see a Forest at all."

Jor holstered Neeja and drew his lightsaber. "Keep Ashla handy Kamille, Senior take point and lead us that way." Jor said pointing.

Senior synched his compass to Jor's indicated direction and issued some hand signaled orders to his men. Tank and Runt fell to the back. Senior and Hefty took the lead. Jor pushed his sphere of responsibility out, hoping to sense any incoming dangers before they become a problem. "Let's go spring us a trap."

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"Genie, stay back." John said as the apprentice took a step towards the archway.

She waved him off. "It's ok I think. It's not a weapon."

"Oh like you know." John muttered.

She touched the side of the arch and her fingers tingled slightly. "I studied some Rakatan engineering once when Jor and me were rebuilding the Bay. Most Rakatan technology was powered off the life force of Force sensitive creatures. However these emergency generators appear to just be simple backup power generators."

"And the archway?" John asked.

"Not Rakatan, at least not in my opinion based upon my very limited knowledge of them. Rakatan's were never big fans of the arch anyway. Their architecture seemed to be more jagged and sharp edged." She explained. "That would explain all the cables on the floor hooked up to this thing. Whatever it is, the archway wasn't part of the original plans."

"So why is it here?" John asked. In response to his question the console next to him beeped. John looked down at the screen.

[search found pertinent security footage available]

[would you like to view footage, y/n?]

John shrugged and hit "y"

The screen blinked and then projected a hologram above its surface. John recognized the room as the one they were standing in without the archway in it. At its center was a host of control panels all manned by Rakatans. Off to one side were three figures. One was a Rakatan, dressed in some dark robes, the second was a species that John had never seen before and the third was some kind of bulky droid or suit with a single eye.

["The entity is becoming stronger, feeding off our ships."] The Rakatan said. His lips didn't match up perfectly with what he was saying. John figured that was the console translating the words.

["The planet is mortally wounded, it will never recover from this."] Said the mysterious third figure.

["We did not anticipate this. It's power is stretching out beyond the barriers. It's influence is increasing. The whole surface of the planet has been tainted."] The third figure said, a strange filtered distortion to it's voice.

There was silence for some time until the Rakatan spoke up. ["Our weapons are having too little of an effect. In time it will have fed enough off the planets energy to become completely immune. We should never have gathered the spheres."]

["We can't destroy it, not with a thousand ships."] The second one confirmed.

The third's Cyclopes eye narrowed and it shifted its whole bulky body to face the others. ["A prison then. Make this dying world the bars to it's prison."]

The Rakatan nodded. ["Land the ship over the epicenter."]

The second being folded it's hands together. ["I shall provide the key."]

The hologram faded and then flickered some. John saw flashes of images. What looked like combat, Rakatan's dying under the power of some storm, a ship landing amidst some grasslands. Finally when the images stopped the hologram picked up again, this time with the same room with the second mysterious figure standing in front of the now present archway. ["The gate is powered."] it said.

The robotic figure looked up, as if viewing something far above the ceiling. ["It knows. Be quick"]

The Rakatan quickly crossed the room to the console where John stood now and pressed some buttons. The archway flashed and suddenly a shimmering curtain of swirling energy. The Rakatan grabbed some kind of rifle away from one of his men and approached the gate. The Second figure likewise armed himself and stepped to the gate. The robotic figure merely approached, somehow half gliding and half walking across the floor and passed through the gate. The Rakatan and the second man followed.

The image faded and blinked out. "So it's some sort of portal." John said. "Who was that second guy who built it? He said it was some sort of key."

Genie shrugged. "The third guy was familiar to me. Something about him made me think of a story Jor told about years ago when he was a new Knight."

"Kosh?" John asked, having heard the same story.

"Yeah. Metal suit, no arms, talks funny, single robotic eye. I mean whatever that was it must have happened so long ago, before the Ratakan's fall. This place used to be a ship, now it's some sort of facility for mining." Genie said.

The power continued to ramp up and the archway achieved enough energy to spark a little. "Well," John said, watching the gateway begin to open. "If whatever we're looking for is beyond this gate, we'd better get ready. Each orb so far has had a guardian, no reason this one should be any different."

The generators got to capacity and energy flowed into the archway. It sparked some more before finally coughing out some thick black smoke around the circuitry and finally bursting in a flash of light. John and Genie raised their hands to shield their eyes from the light and when they looked again, the archway was filled with a swirling white portal.

Jor clutched his staff tightly, ignited his lightsaber and stepped through the portal. Genie ignited both of her lightsabers and stepped through right behind John.

[Damocles]

"This whole planet is freakin me out honestly" Kamille said to Jor about the forest thing. Kamille held the sword close to him and followed the others ready for whatever Vince had planned for them.
___

Drake slid into a wall and crashed through it with Burter chasing him "Stop running runt!" He yelled Drake laughed and swung his purple light saber Burter barely blocked it, Jeice came up behind Drake and tried to attack him with his saber Drake threw out his other hand blowing Jeice away with a massive force push smashing most the building they were in while he was at it. Jeice flew out the building and slid across the ground on his back.

Burter started to back away from Drake "Stupid jedi master!" He yelled throwing his lightsaber at Drake, Drake knocked it out the way. "Go and get Vincent, tell him I'm here to finish this" he said to Burter. "We don't need Vincent we're the GINYU FORCE!" He yelled, Drake sighed heavily "Come on I don't have all day you know" he said running towards Burter he swung his saber Jeice jumped in the way and blocked Drake's attack. Drake sighed as he pulled back, he put his saber away. "Come on guys you can't win and you know it" Drake said to them.

___

Vincent took another drink, Ginyu walked over to him "Seems as if Burter and Jeice have engaged one master, Racoom is leading Jor and the others this way" he said to him "Good, I want all the snipers on the roof ready, we're putting an end to this when they arrive"

[MikDaTv]

Senior came to the edge of the wood. 30 feet beyond was the edge of the town. He held a fist up to signal them all to stop. "Don't like it. Enemy's already entrenched and they have the high ground."

"We have to. Drakes in there. not far either but he's fighting." Jor said. He could feel the combat through the bond with his friend. "Do what you have to."

Senior waved runt over. "Tree, climb, now."

Runt slumped his shoulders. "Aww, but boss… i hate trees." He didn't wait for a response though and started climbing, slinging his rifle on his back. He chose the tallest tree near them at the edge of wood and hauled himself up.

"The rest of you, pair off with a Jedi, return fire on anything coming our way. Jedi, if you wouldn't mind issuing as much warning as you can with your sense, if possible. Runt, your overwatch." Senior said.

Jor nodded. "Sounds like a plan. Lets split up, if any of us find Drake or Vincent let the others know over the com."

Senior went with Jor, Tank paired up with Drake and Hefty paired up with Kamille.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"What is that!" John exclaimed as he crossed through the hypergate to the other side.

Genie gasped open mouthed in shock.

The gate led to a similar archway inside a cave that was lit by massive amounts of faintly glowing crystals. The cave seemed to stretch on for miles and miles, farther than either of them could see in both directions and must have been at least 50 feet high where they were standing. Near the hypergate archway was a ship, but a ship unlike anything they had ever seen. It looked to be more creature than vehicle. It had tentacle like arms for and aft which were dug unto the ground like roots. It's skin wobbled and twitched and Genie noticed cables running from it to the hypergate behind them.

"Whatever it is, it looks like it's whats supplying the power to the hypergate on this end." Genie pointed out.

John got a splitting headache as he looked at the ship. "I think… i think this is what has been giving me those feelings about this planet. The closer we've gotten to it, the stronger they've become."

"I can't tell if it's a ship or a creature." Genie said.

John gave it a long hard look. "It's both. I don't know how i know, but… it's like i can feel it. It's alive and it's a ship, but it hasn't been a ship in a very long time. It's been… modified."

"Part of the ancients plan to deal with the orbs?" Genie asked.

John nodded. "I think so. Lets go on board."

The pair approached the long buried vessel. The only part of it that even resembled a door was a round section on the side where the skin wasn't smooth. When they got near it, the round section quivered and then retracted, opening up from the center outward. John realized in the back of his mind that it resembled a sphincter muscle opening up.

John stepped through first and genie followed right behind. The door closed shut behind them and the pair were plunged into darkness. Genie and John both ignited their lightsabers and the light from them showed the interior of the living ship. It's main room was covered in cables and electronics. Genie recognized some of them as Ratakan but others she did not, assuming them to be further examples of alien technology. "It's like they wired all kinds of stuff into her. This looks like a hodgepodge of tech strewn about."

"It sounded like they were running out of options at the end there. Whatever those orbs are, it was powerful enough to stop the Rakatans, a race so powerful they enslaved large swaths of the galaxy in a huge, expanding empire. Desperation breeds innovation though, they probably combined what they had on hand to do something drastic." John said.

"Convert a ship like this into… into what?" Genie asked.

John shrugged. "Dunno. Lets look around."

[Damocles]

"NOW PREPARE YOURSELF!!!" Jeice yelled just then Drake punched him in the face causing Jecie to grab his nose and scream in pain "The hell, I wasn't done talking" before Jeice could finish Drake hit him again "Ouch, you wanker" as soon as Jeice said that Drake punched him again. "Piss!" Jeice yelled right before Drake hit him again. "Ow my nose, now what did the captain say..." Jeice said thinking "Jeice if you ever find yourself being hit in the face remember" Suddenly Drake hit Jeice again "Agh he cut off the Captain!"

"Aren't you gonna dodge any of these?" Drake asked causing Jeice to jump back "You son of a bitch! Burter a little help!" He yelled "Okay, you have nice hair, and you're a good dancer" Burter said, Jeice looked at him "I meant with him, wait you really think I'm a good dancer?" he asked.

"Hey!" Drake yelled "You guys are boring, this is boring me, go get Vince" Drake said Burter growled "Go to hell we can handle you easily" He said running towards Drake and swinging his sword, Drake looked back and ducked under the blade he pulled out the Thu'um and swung upwards cutting Burter in half, Burter fell into two pieces on the floor of the bar. Jeice looked on in fear "No...my...my best mate, I'm tellin the captain on you!" He yelled running off. "Hey!" Drake yelled "Bring Vincent back with you!" He yelled to Jeice.

___

Kamille nodded to Jor when he said they should pair off and if they find Vince call it out "Got ya" Kamille said running off "Hefty lets roll" he called out to him. Kamille started to look through the town, he could sense that the battle hand ended and one of the guys Drake was fighting was dead, the other he wasn't so sure. "Now if I was a murdering psycho where would I go?" Kamille asked.

___

"Burter's dead" Vince said setting his mug down "The other jedi are in the town, GINYU you go handle Drake, redirect Jeice to find Kassender and let her know what is going on. I will handle Jor myself" Vince said, GINYU nodded and struck a pose before leaving. Vincent sighed heavily.

[MikDaTv]

John approached the skin of the ship slowly and carefully. There was a tingle in the back of his mind, something that had been there for a while but hadn't been strong enough for him to notice until now. It seemed the closer he got to the ship the stronger it got. "What are you?" He whispered as he got close enough to touch it. He reached out with his hand and brushed his fingers along it's surface.

The skin of the ship shuddered and quivered at his touch. The feeling in his mind changed from a tingle to a sharp pain that seared through him for what seemed like forever but was in fact only half a second. His life flashed before his eyes as if the presence in his mind was reviewing them.

PRISON the thought blasted through his mind, forcing a sudden realization upon him.

"It's a prison, or rather was converted into one." John said. "They couldn't stop whatever power was behind the orbs. It was destroying their forces and wrecked this planet. Their last ditch effort was to repurpose this ship to contain it."

Genie frowned. "How did you..."

"I don't know." John replied before she could ask the question.

LINK came another blast of thought.

"I have a link with the ship." John said. "The ship is connected to the orbs somehow and when I did the skrying on Ilum I connected with them to some small degree. The ship found me and lead me here."

Genie put a hand on John's shoulder and pulled him away from the ship. "Is it affecting you in any way?"

PILOT

"No, I'm the... I'm the pilot. The ship's sole purpose for being is to be linked to a pilot and follow commands. The ship hasn't had a pilot for thousands of years... tens of thousands of years. It forgot what it's like." John brought his hand up to his forehead to rub at a headache he hadn't realized he had. "It's adjusting to me and vice versa. It still has to learn basic from reading my memories."

"Does the ship have a name? What do we call it?" Genie asked giving the living vessel another once over.

. . . . . . . . . .

If silence could be shouted, that is the feeling that went through John's head. "it... doesn't know. It can't remember. It can't remember anything before this cave. It's been here so long it's forgotten anything that came before. As long lived as the Kosh were rumored to be, I don't think the ship was ever meant to live this long."

Genie touched the skin of the ship herself and lightly ran her hand over it's surface. "Poor thing, I almost feel sorry for it."

"You should." John confirmed. "Imagine being torn from your singular purpose, forced into something for which you were never designed and then buried in a cave so long that you can never remember your life before. You can't even remember why you were trapped and buried."

"How can we help it?" Genie asked, pulling her hand back. There was a touch of sadness in her voice.

John touched the ship again. "I'm not sure. I don't even know if it knows. Lets look around, see if we can find a cockpit or something approximating a cockpit."


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Jor finished cutting through the hinges on one of the town doors and Senior shouldered through it, bursting into the building weapon ready, Jor right behind, lightsaber inactive but ready and in hand. "Clear." Senior said after giving the room a quick scan.

"Lets stay inside as much as possible. Stay out of the open as much as…." Jor winced as he felt the familiar feeling of death through the Force. Drake had just violently ended someone in his usual style. "As much as we can. Drake is thinning out the bad guys. He might have this cleaned up before we can find his exact position."

Senior scanned the windows and pointed to the other side of the building. "There should be a back entrance to this building that will take us out to an alley which should lead towards one of the main streets."

"Lead the way." Jor said.

[Damocles]

Jayne and Nonppa entered a chamber they looked around. Jayne turned to her men "Stay here, protect this door with your lives, we'll be right out" She said they nodded and went to guar the door. Jayne turned to Nonppa "Once we are inside we should find the last orb no? Then I will need you to destroy the jedi and take theirs" Nonppa nodded as they walked through the dark halls.
___

Drake walked into one of the bar he looked around and shrugged going over to one of the bars. He reached behind it pulling out a bottle and took a large swig before sitting down. Drake laughed some "So, who the hell are you?" He asked turning to GINYU who was sitting on the other side of the bar. "My name is GINYU boy, Captain GINYU" he said. Drake looked at him "So are you the captain they were talking about...excellent" Drake said putting his bottle down "But I told the guy in red to bring Vincent with him. Why is it none you guys can ever listen?" Drake questioned.

GINYU stood up sliding his chair across the floor. Drake smirked standing up as well pulling out his light saber. GINYU reached behind his back pulling out a hilt. He activated his saber the red blade lighting up the room. Drake laughed some "Okay fine I'll cut through you then go after Vince, how is that?" Drake questioned.

___

Kamille was walking down the street, suddenly a wall next to him exploded out making Kamille stumble back some "The hell?" Kamille said as Drake came sliding out the wall with GINYU chasing him. GINYU swung his saber making Drake dodge back swinging his saber colliding with GINYU's "So, you guys are just like novices right?" Drake questioned as used the force to push GINYU back "Master" Kamille called out "Where's Vincent?" He asked. Drake turned to Kamille "Not sure they keep sending these guys after me, opps wait hold on" He said ducking and kicking GINYU back "Damn you!" GINYU yelled sliding to stop "You think you can stop me!" He yelled striking a pose.

Drake looked on then did the same "Like this?" Drake asked striking a similar pose, Kamille smirked "No no master, more like this" he said striking the same pose. GINYU looked on "Do I really looked this stupid" He asked.

___

Vincent continued to walk down the street. He smirked as he could since everything that was happening "Where are you Jor?" He questioned laughing.

[MikDaTv]

John and Genie walked into the control room of the ship. it was extremely spartan. The only remarkable thing about it was a fleshy mound at it's center which only vaguely looked like a chair.

"How does one pilot this ship?" Genie asked. "There are no interfaces, no consoles, no controls of any kind."

John shrugged. "I assume the pilot gives orders to the ship through the link but i'm not sure how. The ship has only done the most basic of communications with me. most of it has been purely subconscious."

Genie took a few steps forward and examined the forward viewport which was large, round and concave like they were standing inside an eyeball.

John sat down on the fleshy mound and immediately it began to quiver and then shift and grow. It grew a back and arms, forming itself into a chair that fit around John. The first thing John noticed was how ridiculously comfortable it was. It was formed to his exact specifications, height, weight, balance, everything. The second thing John noticed was the slight buzz in his head associated with the link exploded. Suddenly he could feel what the ship felt. He could feel himself and Genie standing inside himself in the most unsettling sensation he'd ever had. next came the planet. Through all the electronics hooked up to the ship outside he could feel the planet. It was dying under their feet, slowly, as it had been for thousands of years since the last time the orbs had come together and destroyed the surface. He sensed the village where Drake, Jor and Kamille were fighting. He saw where the cultists ship was and Kassender looking for the final orb.

above all else, he could sense the orbs. their presences stabbed like daggers into his mind. The one in his possession registered brightest, probably because of it's proximity but he could sense Jor's orb in the village, the ones Kassender had already found and the one that they were currently looking for.

Suddenly John was on the ground and Genie was kneeling over him. "John! John! What happened. Are you alright?"

John had a splitting headache and he felt stretched, like thinly sliced taffy. "ughh, no i'm not. Everything sucks. What happened?"

"You sat down, it turned into a chair in a… really gross looking way by the way… then you seized and fell over. Took less than a second."

John struggled to sit up so Genie helped him. "Sensory overload. This ship was designed to link to a Kosh, not a human. That combined with all the information supplied from the equipment outside and i couldn't handle it. I just need a minute."

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Jor and Senior heard the crash one street over when Drake was thrown through the wall. Jor sensed that the fight had begun again, this time with Kamille joining the fray. "Vincent is throwing all his pieces at us except his queen. Drake is going to tire himself out cutting all the knights and rooks in half and then Vincent is going to pounce."

"Perhaps we should stop playing chess." Senior said, glancing out the window through his rifle sight.

Jor nodded. "Agreed. Stay here, guard this with your life." He said and put the orb on a table next to Senior. "Don't touch it with your bare hands."

senior nodded his understanding and Jor walked out into the street. His Templar cloak billowed behind him in the wind and puffs of dust came up around his footfalls as he stepped out to the center of the dirt road. He removed a long object wrapped in cloth from his back and undid the leather straps holding the wrappings in place. The cloth fell away revealing Forizarma the sword. He slammed it point first into the ground and stood behind it. "Vincent! I know your out there! I'm calling you out!"

[Damocles]

Drake kicked Ginyu in the face making him slam into a building. He started to stand up staring at the two Jedi in front of him. "Damn Jedi" he growled under his breath. "Hey Master" Kamille yelled to Drake "We need to finish up, we have to find Jayne" he said Drake looked back at him "I know that" He said suddenly several soldiers started to fire at Drake and Kamille making them dodge back into one of the buildings. "Captain!" Jeice yelled running over to Ginyu "sir are you okay?" he asked helping Ginyu up. "I'm fine, soldiers kill the Jedi in that building" he yelled they all nodded and fired on the building. Inside Drake and Kamille calmly sat at a bar, "Master" Kamille said. "Yeah on it" Drake replied.

Outside another building was pulled from its foundation and lifted over the soldiers and dropped on them. Ginyu and Jeice's eyes widened in shock as Drake and Kamille walked out of the other building staring at them. "Who the hell are these wankers!?!" Jeice yelled in fear as he backed up "I didn't sign up to fight these monsters!" he said in fear. Drake and Kamille stared on "We did Jeice do not fear we are the GINYU force" Ginyu yelled running towards Drake and swinging Drake dodged and swung his saber taking off Ginyu's arm. He turned around and kicked Ginyu in the gut sending him across the street into another building.

Jeice swung his saber at Kamille, Kamille moved back and pulled out a knife stabbing it into Jeice's leg. Jeice yelled in pain as Kamille headbutted him in the nose. Jeice fell backwards holding his nose. "You bastard I just got that realigned" Kamille smirked "Don't worry you'll be dead before that broken nose has a chance to really bother you" he said force pushing Jeice hard enough that Jeice flew back into the building Ginyu was. Jeice stood up looking in fear "No...no! I don't want to die here" he yelled "Coward" Ginyu said cutting off Jeices head. He looked down at the body of his comrade then looked back up at Drake and Kamille "You did this, killed my men" he said.

Drake looked confused "I don't know what you just saw or what you think just happened but I can assure you, you killed him" Drake said "That's not the point!" Ginyu yelled as he started to glow purple "The pint is you made us go this far, you jedi...now I'll show you why we are the GINYU force" he yelled as he started to grow larger, Drake and Kamille stared on "That's not normal right?" Kamille asked. Suddenly Ginyu sprouted 3 new arms and two extra legs making himself look like a centaur Drake and Kamille stared at Ginyu who was now as tall as the buildings. "Check it he grew extra legs, bet he could give Savard a few lessons on that" Drake said, Kamille started laughing but was suddenly hit by Ginyu into a building. "Kamille" Drake yelled turning back to Ginyu "Okay now you're dead" Drake said his eyes glowing red slightly.

Jayne and Nonppa continued through the long hall way before they reached a room. It looked like a temple "Obviously someone had been worshiping here recently" Jayne said, Nonppa tapped her shoulder she turned to him and he pointed "Ah" She said going over to a statue of a woman holding something. She looked at the woman "The final orb" she said reaching out to touch it her eyes widened as she sensed all of the force users on the planet as well as something else. Jayne fell back but was caught by Nonppa "So much power and I only have 5, imagine what happens when I get all seven. Nonppa take the orb" She said as Nonppa picked up the orb.

"Vincent, this is Jayne we've located the orb and we're heading your way, secure the last one" she said "No can do" Vincent replied "Looks like Jor split his up, you'll have to get the other one" he said "Fine" Jayne replied. "Nonppa now lets go" she said as they walked out suddenly everything began to shake "Ma'am" Nonppa said "Looks like having this many orbs in one place is having a reaction on this planet, putting all seven together may result in the planet shaking itself apart" she said smirking.

"It will be a very interesting show to say the least" she said.

Vincent continued to skip through the town, he heard Jor lay down his challenge "Oh you are sooo over dramatic" Vincent said walking up to Jor. "Did you remember my Templar blade this time or did you forget?" he asked, he looked Jor then the sword he jumped up and down "Looks like you remembered, awesome! I'll have to take yours and Drake's and John's as well...it'll be more fun that way" he laughed pulling out his saber the ground began to shake under Vincent "Hmm interesting" He laughed "So I just heard Jayne has 5 of the orbs Jor" Vincent said to him "This is gonna be a blast meeting the legendary force god thingy and of course killing it" he said smirking sadistically.

"Your a damn fool Vincent." Jor said, his fingers brushed against the handle of Neeja in its holster. "This ends today."

Jor drew Neeja with a lightning quickness he'd practiced countless times in front of the mirror in his quarters. Is finger twitched twice, firing off two shots from the hip, both of which went wide due to the ground quake. He brought the gun up to eye level where he could aim and fired off three more shots in quick succession.

Hefty and Tank opened fire on Ginyu. Tank with his rifle and Hefty with his scatter blaster. The two commandoes side stepped away from each other in order to make sure Ginyu couldn't get them both with one attack and to try and get him in a crossfire while Kamille recovered. The shaking ground made them need to step more carefully, but their trained and toned legs kept them from falling over. "Runt!" Tank yelled into his com.

"What can i do you for T?"

"Can you see the giant multi armed dude in the middle of town stomping around?"

"Yep."

Tank reloaded his rifle and kept up the fire. "Shoot it… shoot it to death."

"Roger that." Runt sighted in on Ginyu who had been obstructed by the town's buildings before, but now was tall enough that Runt could see his head and upper body through his scope. "Shot!" He said and squeezed the trigger, sending a crimson bolt of energy towards Ginyu's face.

"Whats going on?" Genie asked as the cavern they were in began to shake violently.

ESCAPE!

"The orbs. The cult found the last one. The orb i have and the orb Jor has are all they need to have a full house. The planet can feel it. The ship can feel it and doesn't like it. It's whole reason for being here was to use the power of the planet to keep those orbs separate." John replied.

John sat down in the pilot's chair again. "Thats why all this is happening. The planets dying. the weaker it gets, the less power the ship has to draw on and the more powerful the orbs become. Thats why they've suddenly started being discovered. They draw themselves together through those that hold them."

"So what are we going to do?" Genie asked. the cave was shaking a lot more and sparks were beginning to spout from the electronics both inside and outside the ship. "I don't think it's wise to use the hypergate again with all the damage the earthquake is doing."

"Hang on, i'm about to do something really stupid." John said as the chair formed up around him again. "hang on!"

John's link with the ship expanded again and the white hot pain of the pure overflow of information shot through his mind again. He concentrated on the orbs, on Jor and Drake and Kamille. The ship shuddered and groaned both in his mind and in the physical world. It lurched and rose up for the first time from where it had rested for many thousands of years shimmered for half a second and then disappeared.

Vincent smirked when Jor called him a fool "Am I now" he laughed and moved out the way of the first two shots that luckily went wide. "Good Jor" he yelled deflecting the next three bolts with his saber "I've been waiting for years to end this!" he yelled using the force to throw to rip a door off a building and throw it at Jor, once he did that he ran to one of the buildings "Try to keep up old man!" He yelled to Jor.

GINYU growled as he was shot a few times "You dare!" He yelled to the commandos he turned his head just in time to get shot in the eye he let out a loud growl "My eye" he yelled. Drake ran towards Ginyu running between his legs which were now stomping up and down. Drake slid under Ginyu and pulled his saber up cutting two of his legs causing him to stumble some. Drake got up "Thanks for the support" Drake said suddenly Ginyu swung his arm hitting Drake knocking him away.

Drake flew back and slammed into a wall. He fell to the ground "Ouch" he grumbled as Ginyu started to stand back up, his wounds healing "I'll kill you all now!" he yelled, Drake looked at Hefty and Tank "This guy has some type of rapid healing going on, we'll have to hit all his vitals in one go" Drake said to them, he hoped they would be able to follow his lead without him piping out instructions the entire go.

Running towards Ginyu Drake lept towards one of the buildings, Ginyu turned around and swung hitting Drake again. Drake slid back not being slammed into a building this time. He growled some Ginyu's fist not making contact with Drake. "The hell is this?" Ginyu growled as Drake was holding him in place with the force. "Now!" Drake called out to Hefty and Tank "Hit him everything you got!" He ordered them trying his best to hold the struggling giant with the force. Drake couldn't move if he did Ginyu would be freed and probably wouldn't fall for the same trick twice.

Jayne and Nonppa along with her men made their way over to a ship. They started to bored it "Once aboard set a course to the orb" she ordered "Ma'am" one of the soldiers replied to her. Jayne sat in her seat as the 5 orbs she had began to glow more and more "The closer we get to the orb the more power these things will start to emit" she smirked evilly about it. Suddenly the orbs glow faded "What the hell was that?" Jayne asked "It looks like the signal of the orb vanished" he navigator said. "Well find it and find it now!" Jayne ordered "Until then take us to Vincent's location" she ordered.

Kamille laid there his eyes closed he was knocked out. "Kamille" a voice called Kamille looked over seeing Chaplin "Old Chappy" Kamille laughed "Well Kamille, you've grown into quite the man, never would have known with such a girly name" Chaplin said Kamille growled "Damn you old man" Kamille said, he looked around he wasn't in the town anymore there was fog everywhere, other than that it was darkness as far as Kamille could see. "What is this?" He questioned looking over seeing himself only he had red eyes "I am your inner self Kamille, remember what Jor said about that sword, your true self. I am your true self" He laughed sounding a lot like Vincent.

Suddenly Kamille eyes opened he was back in the town. He heard all the fighting Kamille sat up slowly "Ugh" he said holding his head he was starting to worry about his true self. Though Drake told him he was brave and a good jedi Kamille was starting to have his doubts.
