Post by Admiral Nester Solo on May 4, 2007 15:32:14 GMT
Captain Nester Solo, and three other ships that were under his command, began to do a patrol run around the Coruscant surface, some of the greatest men in the Republic Navy were on this planet at the moment, and that would raise security mesaures. His eyes were at a constant movement back and fourth, between the thick armor plated glass, and his radar that would signal if there were any disturbances.
He had a customized seat in his ship, so he was able to spin around when being bored, as he wasn't really your average soldier, this one had more of a sense of humor. He pulled out his customized blaster and began twirling it around in circles, this of course could've been dangerous if a stray shot would've went off and destroyed something he needed, but he was never one to be too cautious. Nester raised from his chair and set the ship on autopilot, putting up a three-way comm link that would take up half the room on the glass plating of his lookout glass, the image of the three pilots just staring back at him. "So boys, we heading to any place fancy, or is this just going to be another old security patrol run? Cause the last time we went, the only thing we saw was a stripping wookiee, and some guy who posed himself as a Jedi." He grinned slightly, with the shake of his head.
The pilots all shrugged at him, and Nester thought the link might've broken the sound wave to the three of them, he leaned over and tapped the lookout glass, watching as the pilots all held there ears in pain, he tried not to laugh at them. But it was really too hard not to, he turned his attention to Hawkeye who was shaking his head for a moment still feeling the pain of the sudden sound. "What the hell is your problem Nester? You know that makes a louder echo, than a wookiee during mating season." Hawkeye replied back to him. Nester felt a bit more at ease, now that everyone wasn't as quiet.

Jon had sen many battles and had only recently been promoted to Grand Admiral he would call it a day after his service ran out in two years. Jon had neglected his family a bit his son was in the army as he had wanted to follow in his fahers footsteps but Jake Tarkin was not like his father he had not taken long to rise through the ranks he had become a Captain and had retierd from active service at the age of 29 and was currently serving the Queen of Naboo as Senior Military Advisor.
Jon sat down at his desk and interlocked his fingers and sighed. If he had one more complaint about Captain Nester Solo it would kill him, the young Captain was a great leader and the only thing stoping him from being promoted was his arogance.

Admiral Gorrhnak stood in the conference room, and double checked the wiring for the holograms. It seemed to be in order, and the meeting was starting soon. He lifted an intercom from his belt and growled into it. Not long after, his new translator droid, B-3PO walked into the room. B-3PO was a blue coloured 3PO protocol droid, and seemed very eager to preform his duties.
As the holograms started up, revealing the faces of his superiors and equals in the Republic Navy, Gorrhnak saluted, and growled towards Grand Admiral Jon Tarkin. B-3PO translated.
"Admiral Gorrhnak, ready to serve sir."
Addressing the entire gathering, he growled again.
"Now, what is the plan for stopping the Imperials?"

Nester put through a comm-link from his ship, to the holocron sitting on the front of Jon's desk, as a large clear image of his face popped up. "Hey there Admiral, we were just wondering. What in the hell are we doing out here, cause me and the guys have been at this security run for a couple hours now. And we saw that stripping wookiee again, and some hot cyber humans that were walking along the city streets, not to mention that we had to do a couple overlaps to make sure that they weren't making any laws, If you know what I mean." He grinned after saying such a thing.
Nester turned his attention to the other holo-gram, staring the wookiee straight in the eye. "Oh, about that wookiee thing. It was just a joke, no pun intended there uhm. What's your name again, I forgot?" He asked curiously.

The mention of wookiee strippers caused a battle of emotions in Gorrhnak. On the one hand, he was very intrigued, but on the other, enraged that one of his species would be treated like this.
He snarled back to Captain Solo.
"Admiral Gorrhnak, captain." the droid didn't do a good job of conveying the Admiral's emotion, but the snarl did the job well enough.
Burying his anger, he turned to the hologram of Jon.
"Yes Admiral, I was wondering the same thing."

"If you look at the file infront of you" Jon said speaking to Admirals Gorrhnak, Kahn and Drackin who were all siting in the conference room. "It contains photos from a recon mission by Colonel Ward that the Imperial Fleet is re-grouping above what looks to be Korriban their fleet is almost as equal to ours Colonel Ward managed to intercept that there is going to be an attack but he was shot down before he could tell us where we believe he has been captured" Jon told them.

Gorrhnak opened the portfolio sitting on the desk. He saw the pictures, and was a little frightened at the size of the fleet. He growled again.
"Do we have any theories on where they could be attacking?"

"We assesed the most likely places and Naboo, Hapes, Corellia or Kashyyyk are the most likely targets" Jon informed them.
