[Krytos]

Leave the area? I'm in space!!! Who do these guys think they are? Krytos was bewildered by the comment of an Imperial Officer, was he still in another dimension?

"Ok, how about this Sanders, I tell you where to go and go home. At the same time you take what ever you brought here and leave."

Unfortunately, Sanders didn't see eye to eye with Krytos. The TOP 2's sensors came on line and painted 12 small contacts coming towards him.

"Oops," Krytos said allowed. "Time to see if this thing has any weapons."

Swinging the ship around, Krytos searched for weapon controls. Though he didn't need to, automatically the ships HUD lit up and targetted four of the enemies and fired and equal number of missiles at them. Seconds later the fighters were destroyed, and the others began to retreat after seeing they were outmatched.

"Nice, I didn't now I had it in me! Now, time to find Scath . . . and finish my smoothie."

(Sorry Paul, but I had this scene of Shrek 2 in mind when I read your last posts )

 

Two hours later, the shuttle was closing in on the hangar, bringing Zoot to his meeting with Grand Moff Conway.

Inside the small ship Zoot was levitating in the main passenger area, while the Zootlings and two of Conway's royal guards sat comfortable in their seats. The guards were talking to each other, the comm units in their helmets filtering their voices to an impersonal, droid-like level. One of the guards was just speaking up again.

"You think this'll work ?". The other just nodded. "Sure, he doesn't suspect a thing.". Zoot's levitation dropped by an inch, as he got distracted and turned to glare over his shoulder at the red-clothed guards. They in return were looking at him with an immitation of a blank expression, something that was pretty hard to do inside a full helmet. One of them was pointing with his thumb to the seat row behind him, where the Zootlings were snoring in their seats. The other one simply nodded.

Zoot picked up his levitation again and the voices were back. "But he can't be that dumb.". "Teehee, sure, he's just a cat after all.". Zoot dropped a bit again, but opted to not let them know he was listening.

The guards picked their conversation up again. "Being the clone template for Conway and to be set up as his puppet, would you like to live like that ?". "Blimey, no.". "Yeah, but you're right. He's just a dumb cat, what does he know.".

Zoot's anger picked up, the dark side energy filling inside him made the air around him crackle with static and force lightning, even as the shuttle finally landed and the ramp descended.

Zoot lead the way, the guards and the four Zootlings, finally awake from their slumber, followed him. The hangar was filled with hundreds of stormtroopers, which formed a corridor between the shuttle and the waiting figures of Grand Moff Conway and his attendant Jamie Dorja.

As the got within 5 meters, Conway started with saying "Welcome Zoot, I'm glad you had time. I'm sure you will be interested in the offer I have to. ". Zoot snarled "Ohhh yess, I'm sure I will." and started to run towards him on all four of his paws in lightning fast way.

Caught completely off-guard Conway didn't know how to react to this and was still confused by Zoot's behaviour, even when the feline digged its claws into his right foot. This however brought his consciousness back and he let out a startled scream, as he tried to shake the cat off his foot. "What ? Why are you ... Jamie, get this thing off me !".

Just as Jamie Dorja wanted to grab Zoot, the cat jumped on her master's shoulders and continued with its not so kind massage. Everyone else in the hangar bay was just staring at the odd scene, unsure what to do with it.

Finally, as Jamie tried once again to get a hold of the cat, Zoot dropped to the floor. Conway let out a brief sigh of relief, which was followed by a started giggle, as Zoot quickly ascended in one of the legs of his pants. Slapping with all futility at the odd moving protrusion under his garments, Conway looked like he wanted to put out a spark on his clothes. Then, suddenly Zoot broke halfway out of the chest of his shirt and let out a feral hiss, as he bared his fangs. It looked like Conway's chest had exploded to make way for this bizzare sight. It proved to be too much for Dorja, for she fainted, as did several of the assembled troopers.

Seemingly done with his reply Zoot walked back towards the shuttle and took off again, leaving a still confused and claw-marked Grand Moff behind. In another hangar, three decks below, the two royal guards were just taking off in another shuttle as well. Both took off their helmets now.

"Well, that was fun.", Jahled said, as he looked over to the other occupant of the cockpit. "Same time tomorrow ?" Mask replied with a sparkle of mischief in his eyes. "Wouldn't miss it.".

Earth was relatively safe again, even if it was just for a small amount of time. Their informant in Conway's fleet had done well, once again.

[Paul]

Grand Moff Paul Conway was furious and it showed. Embarassed and attacked by the very cat that was supposed to help him. He smelled treachery and it angered him even more that the Zootlings had detected nothing in their flight. "Sleeping! I can't believe you slept all the way from Earth. "Conway shouted at the Zootlings. " Who sent two of my royal troopers to Earth? " He quickly asked a recovering Jamie Dorja.

"As far as I can tell they were imposters Paul."she replied. The private suite fell into silence. Conway would take Earth and get even with Zoot. Instead of being the Moff in charge of Earth, Zoot would be the Moffs caged pet. No one ever crossed the Empire and won. Jamie looked embarassed," I'm sorry I fainted." "Don't worry about that my dear."Paul quietly said. Next he turned on the Zootlings, they felt like going to the catbox but loyally stayed put. "You were tricked, but I also forgive you."

 

Conway called Morgoth and checked on progress on the new Deathstar named Tarkin after Paul's hero figure. And he ordered his former teacher and fellow Sith Darth Melissa to board a fast ship to come to him aboard the Deathstar. She was to find the traitor among his staff. Only high level staffers had known the full details of the Zoot plans. One of them was a traitor. Melissa would find the traitor and punish him severely.

 

He ordered Captain Sanders to send 40 TIE Raptors from Earth to attack the now identified TOP2 with rouge agent Krytos. Their orders were to destroy the ship and kill Krytos. Earth thought that Zoot was a problem, they would dread the Empire. He ordered General Kruger to start the occupation of Cuba from the secret base. The time for words was over, it was time for action. He ordered the 10 Star Destroyers in orbit around the Earth to start targeting military targets around the globe. In one hour the Deathstar would arrive and he would ask for a global surrender. He wanted Zoot and he wanted those who had embarassed him.

A man rolled out of bed, wondering what time it was. He looked at the clock on the wall, and saw the time. In his boggled mind, the only coherent thought that manages to surface was 'Cats named Zoot shall become raptors with ties'.

 

The man mumbles to himself, and rolled over, convinced that he had one again had far to much ale in his system.

[Guest Scathane]

But, the ale notwithstanding, this time, the man was right...

[AdmiralFishface]

Admiral Fishface sat in his command chair aboard the Big Fish, the proud flagship of the small task force that gathered around Mars to stop the madness of Grand Moff Conway's Tarkinstar. He pointed a small device at the holotable, while talking to the assembled heroes of the Rebellion against Zoot's reign of terror.

"You can see here the locations of Conway's Star Destroyers around the Globe." he said while activating the holotable. Irritated by the laughter that erupted around him, he turned around, and, very quickly, removed a datadisk labelled Fishy's holiday photos from the holographic device.

"Erm, how did that get in here?" He replaced the disk with the one labelled Secret Stuff. Do not view. Seriously. I mean it.

He cleared his throat. "As you can see, the Destroyers are targetting pubs and public toilets around the world. Should they open fire, the population would be cut off from beer and sanitary infrastructure. Also, one destroyer is aiming at this fluffy little penguin. They must be stopped, at all costs."

[Paul]

Still stewing over the Zoot incident Grand Moff Conway was irritated by the news that Earth indeed did have a defense force, although nothing to really worry about. He motioned to Jamie Dorja" Send 2 of our accompanying Kaiser Class SSD's to attack the ships around Mars immediately."said Conway. It seemed his information about this backwards planet needed to be updated.

 

Darth Melissa smiled as the traitor screamed from the pain inflicted by the interigation droid. It had been easy using the normal ways to find the treasonous one. She enjoyed inflicting pain on others, it was her favorite pastime. She had learned that Zoot too had been a victim of deception. She had learned two names as well- Jahled and one named the Mask. She would pass this information to Conway and depart for Morgoth again.

 

Conway smiled to himself, so he had been taken in. It was unusual for him to react so calmly, perhaps he was getting old. He had ordered the Zootlings back to Earth with the tapes of the traitor being tortured as proof that Zoot had been fooled. Maybe he could make a new deal with Zoot. The feline was a worthy ally- and had a violent temper for sure.

During these musings, Grand Moff Conway was disturbed by a little squeak from behind his command chair. As he looked down, he only saw a little mouse looking up quizzically at him for a moment, like it was deciding, if he would provide something to eat. He called for one of his attendants.

 

"Someone, feed this rodent. All of this squeaking is distracting me."

 

Afterwards, the little gray being vanished through the small hole it had dug out of the nearby wall, grateful for the bit of cheese. Yet, unknown to anyone else aboard was, what part this creature would play later.

[Krytos]

The TOP2 touched down in the middle of a children’s playground, yet was informing Krytos that this was one of Scath's secret bases just before he exited the craft. A red message flashed in front of his eyes “Take the slideâ€

[Paul]

Conway and Dorja were alone in their private suite eating dinner and relaxing. No word yet from the Zootlings or the SSD's sent after the Earth's defense ships around Mars. "Being evil has its rewards," said Conway. "I have conquered most of the known and unknown regions of space and am richer and more powerful than Palpatine ever dreamed of." Dorja smiled and nestled closer. "Is it wrong to want to enslave this backwards planet?"he asked. "I have been with you over thirty years and have never seen you so pensive,"Jamie said. "These Earthlings have rejected my surrender order, should I just use the superlaser on them or should we for once leave them alone?" "I suggest we go to bed and worry about it tomorrow."silently wispered Jamie. "You go on, I have some things to attend to."replied the Grand Moff.

 

As he silently walked the empty corridors of the immense battle station Conway thought to himself that he would like to meet his adversaries face to face. As he came to his control room he switched on the lights and again saw the mouse. Having no food to feed it he motioned it away with the force. He went to the comm unit and switched it on. He raised the secret base in Cuba and reached Kruger. "All is going well my Lord,"said Kruger. "This nation is weak and we have conquered much of it with ease." "Good,"said Conway,"Keep me posted." Darth Melissa was on her way back to Morgoth and would arrive there in a day. He sent a message to his wife on Coruscant. They were estranged and almost never met anymore. Dorja was more to his liking anyway. He answered messages from around the Empire. Things were going well elswhere. He shut off the lights and went back to his quarters to go to bed.

Gerald the mouse shrugged at this behaviour. Humans usually tended to be rude towards its species more often than the other way around.

He went on scouting the room, while Conway did something with the blinking consoles and when the room fell silent again, he also left.

Now that's a name I haven't heard in a very looong time.

 

Gerald the Mouse.

[the_mask]

But you already know, who he is

 

Pssst

[Paul]

Conway awoke early the next morning as was his habit. He went over battle reports from various campaigns throughout the vast Imperial territories. Dorja brought him his favorite beverage, ginger ale with a shot of an exotic whiskey. He had dreamt about the funny little mouse during the night, but gave it little attention. He had a planet to conquer. The Zootlings had reported that Zoot was not in his London abode and they were unsure of where else to go. Reluctantly he ordered them to return to the Deathstar empty handed. One Earth thing he did like was their music. He was fond of a band called Iron Maiden and loved the song Number of the Beast. It reminded him of him.

 

There had been no reply to his ultimatum for Earths surrender. Conway was considering two alternatives. Destroy the planet with the superlaser, or a new approach - leave it for now. His officers wanted to destroy the planet as an example but Conway remembered what had happened when Tarkin destroyed Alderaan. Though he also believed in the Tarkin Doctrine Conway realized that this backwards planet was beneath his usual standards. If Zoot had not contacted him he wouldn't have been here in the first place. Without Zoot his plans were faltering. He ordered the Star Destroyers around Earth to bombard selected targets. Maybe that would wake up the governments of Earth.

"Dude, we're being invaded!!" came the cry from the mans doorway. The man rolled over in his bed, and blinked in confusion. He didn't like being awakened suddenly. The the full concept of what had been said hit him.

 

"WHAT?!?!?!!" he yelled, as he shot up from his bed. He ran into his small living room, and turned on the news console. he quickly watched the reports as they came, and sighed. He walked over to his small food storage unit, and opened it. Pulling a small bevergae from it, he walked back into his bedroom.

 

"Man, arent you worried?" his friend asked, and the man simply shrugged.

 

"Wake me when its either over, or we are dead. Im going back to sleep." the man said.

 

His freind stareda t him, disbelief in his eyes, and watched the man fall back into a peacefull slumber.

[ElvisMiggell]

And from the mist strode the tall proud figure of... Elvismiggell...

[Mad78]

My goodness! He is back!

[Krytos]

Before Scath could reply, a sense of calm washed over Krytos filling him with hope and power. In an instance, he knew.

 

ElvisMiggel was back.

 

 

Welcome back Elvis!!! !!!

[Paul]

As the Earthlings gathered around their heroes the Deathstar laser warmed up in preparation to fire. Grand Moff Conway sat in the control room with Jamie Dorja and the Zootlings mulling over his options- to fire or to continue conquering the planet. Or maybe to leave this planet to its own devices for a year or so.

 

GM Conway

[ElvisMiggell]

It soon became apparent, that although Elvis had kept all his powers, and in fact gained some new one,s such as the ability to create p[izza out of thin air, he had total amnesia, and didn't know what had happened on Earth whilst he had been away!

[Mad78]

Many things:

I have passed my 2000th post tons of new members and so on...

Scath you explain.

[Guest Scathane]

Errr..., what is it that you want me to explain exactly?

[Mad78]

Everything that has haapened here since Elvis's disappeared.

[Guest Scathane]

...haapened...

...haapened?!

[Mad78]

OH NO!!! please don't tell me that you're corrector program has resurfaced. I swear i am going to get the memory of this R2 purged.
