[Day 3 - MA] The Vrakul Trident Heist [Heist Event]

[Bowze Coppa]

''At this distance, in these close quarters? Most assuredly...I just reached a point in my life where I loathe being used.'' he replied with a snarl ''What use is it for me to live a few minutes if you can kill me any moment afterwards?''

He stared into her eyes

''I have no reason to trust you. I do not even know who you are.''

[Dove Gray]

“It pays well, you have the resources of the Inquisitorius at your disposal and of course you get to spend a great deal of time around my cheery personality. Among the Inquisitors I am considered the funny one,” he said dryly in his mechanical voice.

“The rest are extremely serious all of the time.”

He gestured and said, “Shall we?”

"Ah, so I get to spend time with not only the most powerful, most skillful and handsome Inquisitor, but also the cheeriest. Lucky me," she purred and held his arm.

"Lead the way, my Lord."

[Dapper Dog]

“Maybe I grew a heart?” she joked darkly.

“Seriously I just don’t see the need for it, Darth Sidious has won, the CIS is all but destroyed and the Empire dominates the galaxy. Whatever, but honestly I have been thinking about long term… what do I want, and none of that really matters to me. I am just going through the motions you know? I wake up remove another threat to father, go to bed and do it again. So on and so forth…”

“Anyway, you don’t have a reason to trust me but if I wanted you dead why offer you a chance at survival?” she offered.

[The Inquisitor]

"Ah, so I get to spend time with not only the most powerful, most skillful and handsome Inquisitor, but also the cheeriest. Lucky me," she purred and held his arm.

"Lead the way, my Lord."

The Inquisitor guided her to the Admiral who was in the middle of a conversation with officials from Rygor. He opened with greetings, “Admiral Yulani, I see that you were roped into this as well.”

“This is my agent, Dove, Dove Gray.”


Admiral Yulani said, “Charmed, I am sure.”

She stepped away from the officials and added, “I give you points for rescuing me from those sycophants and vultures, Inquisitor. Things are a mess here on Bankor, that needs to change.”

“Let’s keep this unclassified, I don’t know her and the Inquisitorius has proven themselves reckless. By the by, the wine is actually good, small miracle,” she said taking another sip.

“So Agent Gray, give me a debrief on yourself.”

[Bowze Coppa]

''To gain something you have trouble gaining yourself." he said as a matter of fact ''You will kill me, of course, but extracting the maximum value from me is the smarter thing to do before you have to come to that.''

Something hooked him

''But please, go on.''

[Dapper Dog]

''To gain something you have trouble gaining yourself." he said as a matter of fact ''You will kill me, of course, but extracting the maximum value from me is the smarter thing to do before you have to come to that.''

Something hooked him

''But please, go on.''

“No… you’re right…” she said something finally clicking in her mind.

“Is it really just that simple?” she said leaning back against the door. “You’re right General, wow… you really are smart.”

[Bowze Coppa]

''Quite? Now if you want to make a deal, you'll actually have to offer something.''

The art of war sould come with an annex about art of the deal

He tilted his head

''What is it you want and what will you actually give me for it''

[Dapper Dog]

"I think I just want to be free," she said tapping the blade to her lips.

[Bowze Coppa]

Bowze stared for a second

''What?''

[Dapper Dog]

Bowze stared for a second

''What?''

“What.. what did you think I wanted?” she said her brows furrowing as she made an incredulous face at the nemoidian.

[Bowze Coppa]

Bowze paused, reflecting on what was being said.

''I am not quite sure if this is a trick to lower my guard or not...but I'll bite for now'' he finally said ''Freedom is something we all crave for, after all''

He lowered the grenade, but still held it tight

His jaws contrated and relaxed in alternance before he would speak again

''What type of freedom do you want?''

[Dapper Dog]

“To be the person I want to be, I guess,” she said honestly.

“I have lived my whole life in service to what my father demanded of me, hell I had to kill several of my brothers and sisters just to survive… you know normal stuff right?”

[Bowze Coppa]

''Not really for most mammalian life forms, I admit. Especially humans.''

It was foolish to believe her, it was. But the once officer knew the feeling of being nothing more then a tool.

''You want to live, really live, achieve your own goals and cease to be a weapon...a mere tool.'' he nods ''Being used diminishes us.''

[Dapper Dog]

"Yeah... I guess you understand, weird huh?" she mused.

[Bowze Coppa]

''The irony'' he mused back, then sighed

A life for a life...quite the even deal

''I am not sure I can help. Someone of your caliber can likely just flee without ever being found...what you need to do is minimise the chances they will go after you.''

He had an annoyed look on his face

''Something I did not have the luxury to do.''

[Dapper Dog]

“So how we do that, I am not inclined to give him what he wants and maybe making it harder for them to find you might just be the first step to doing what I want to do. I mean you don’t have to figure that out now, I have no idea why you’re here actually. Why are you here?” she asked thoughtfully and then waved it away.

“I don’t want to know.”

“You’re the smart one, I guess I could try and disappear but maybe that isn’t enough, you know,” she said tapping her red lips with the blade.

[Bowze Coppa]

''It is not, I am afraid'' he said, still somewhat on guard ''You'll have to...erm...devalue yourself first.''

That was an odd concept to explain, one he had wished he could pull of before he faked his own death

''I do not know him but I don't think he's the archetype of the caring and loving father...true?''

[Dapper Dog]

“I don’t know, I am learning more and more that what I considered normal is anything but,” she said honestly.

“He is ruthless and even though he has everything he still wants more.”

[Bowze Coppa]

There was silence. The nemoidian hated the emperor but the emperor was far, never more then a symbol. He never had the chance to reflect how his shadow might loom over those near.

''There is two ways...you can do things.''he began with a slow breath his mind turned towards a plan ''I cannot imagine how your life was until now but one variable is clear: The Emperor does not care for anyone but himself.'' he mulled over his idea ''So you either make a clean cut and get away, risking him to come after you like another loose end or set the stage for your vanishing. The first option will have you pay after the fact the second one will have you pay before.''

[Jenna Karath]

Meanwhile...

"I'm so," she leaned in, the taste of alcohol yet on her breath, "sorry," she leaned back with a laugh as she lifted herself off of him. Patting his chest one last time she felt out his shoulders, "Strong, man," she giggled again, mother of moons she hated herself. Only hoping, for a moment, that she really didn't act like this when she was drunk, reality would almost make it far worse.

Pushing herself off him, steadily, she winked and then made her way through the crowed. While the Neimoidian bargained and debated, she was none the wiser and continued with the plan, moving back toward the counter where she'd given up her purse she'd gone to collect it. Smiling to the attendant and all near as she took the white bag into her hand and slurred her words a little bit, "Now, the little girls room," she laughed.

With a purpose she moved toward the door that Venator prepared, marked somehow, she slipped into the bowels of the ship and worked her way to a security locker room and found herself an open locker, or opened herself one, irrelevant. Regardless, she'd set out the uniform on a nearby bench, set down her purse, and went to work. Some moments later her dress was stripped for a much different ensemble and from her bag she'd retrieved her slicer wristband which she now hid underneath a sleeve, her comm-link receiver placed nicely into her ear, and the other assorted pieces where they fit most appropriately.

Bringing a hand up to her ear as she walked from the security locker she requested, "Status update?"

[Dapper Dog]

There was silence. The nemoidian hated the emperor but the emperor was far, never more then a symbol. He never had the chance to reflect how his shadow might loom over those near.

''There is two ways...you can do things.''he began with a slow breath his mind turned towards a plan ''I cannot imagine how your life was until now but one variable is clear: The Emperor does not care for anyone but himself.'' he mulled over his idea ''So you either make a clean cut and get away, risking him to come after you like another loose end or set the stage for your vanishing. The first option will have you pay after the fact the second one will have you pay before.''

There was a click as she unlocked the door and said, “I think I have your meaning but I need to think on this. Mind if I find you later and we uh talk this out, General?”

“I know where you live and work, so it shouldn’t be hard.”

[Bowze Coppa]

Bowze decided to let his guard down and repinned the grenade

I hope I will not pay for this

''You could. I will assist where I can...'' he looked at her directly in the eyes ''The second option would be prudent but for you I advise the first.''

[Dapper Dog]

"Good luck doing whatever you are doing," she offered.

[Jenna Karath]

Another guard was quick to find, and she made her move, "You," she looked them over, "Boss said we have to go make a run of the secure rooms. Wants you with me," nodding her head over her shoulder she indicated for him to lead the way.

Standing there she'd crossed her arms over her chest, broadened up her shoulders, and tried to think of the most dour and serious topic at all times. Gave her something of the right appearance but...

[Bowze Coppa]

"Good luck doing whatever you are doing," she offered.

''I wish you to find what you need'' he said in turn
