The Rebel Faction

As the Jensaarai representitive spoke out loud to include the rest of the room there was a marked silence. Toryn had taken a seat at Greyy's side. The short nohgri guard did the same sitting next to Toryn. This nohgri had a greyy helmet on the table in front of him.

The Teepo palidin in the Room spoke up.

"Indeed, you brought us all here for a reason. So why delay any longer when all participants are present and accounted for?" He asked in a retorical manner that was demanding but with a tone that was controled enough to not sound insulting.

The female android Turns to look him in the eyes.

"You have waited this long Master Teepo," Her glare is icy cold. All of the force users could feel her absence in the force. The effect of such a being can be a bit unnerving to force users, "It is logical that you can wait just a little longer."

The Teepo gets ready to make a retort when Greyy stands up getting everyones undivided attention. He glances about the room making sure that everyone is listening.

"Well the time for waiting is at an end then Ms. Strike. Now, if you would all take a seat at the council table all well be explained." The group take their cues and are seated. The Teepo and Strike sit on Greyys right after Toryn and the Nohgri. Irman takes a seat next to Greyy and gestures for Jaymach to sit besides him.

The group of seven barely fill a small portion of council table that could easily fit three times their number.

"The reason that I called you all here is that I have definitive proof that our wayward observer yet lives."

"Yes." The Teepo chimed in, "Let us hear it. The Teepo have heard that the Observer yet live. That we our selves had no doubt of after he spoke."

The female sythadroid took up an answer yet again, "We do not doubt the abilities of the Master Aiki, Master Teepo. But knowing that she is alive is far from a solution to what has happened to her. With out any physical proof all that we have is Irman's speculative feelings from within the force. It still gives us nothing to work from to locate her."

"Quite right," All attention turns to the director of the guard.

"Though we have the knowledge that she is alive from Master Nogar we had no way of knowing where she could posibly be until now that is." He Moves his hand over a panel his hand moves deftly over the controls. As he does this the lights dim and the Holographic emmiter at the center of the room comes to life. A message is shown in mid air.

"This is an annalysis of the information that was collect by Commander strikes ship that was monitoring Vonta's location at the time of her dissapearance. The Guard was unable to come to any clear conclusions but after we had the Vinda Coorperation take a deeper look at the information the came to some startling conclusions." He allowed the room to read the information through.

Summery: Trace reading had large amounts of Chroniton and Verteron particles. Lab was requested to analyze the trace and theorize on cause.

Body: Chroniton and Verteron particles have been detected in several tests involving high speed hyperspace^2 travel. They are theorized to be after effects of minor space/time bending, resulting in travel that is close to breaking the time barrier. Traces such as was found in this reading have not been seen before.

Theorization:
1 - The end result of an experiment involving hyperspace speeds of faster than .003.
2 – A transportation device such as the rumored “Magwit’s Mystifying Hoop”.

Logical Cause: A space anomaly.

End Summery: More tests and trace readings will be required before additional results can be yielded.'


"The information posed to the VC brought them to the conclusion that this may be the kind of energy signature that can be used in matter tranportation technology. Something beyond all known technologies. Why the only known transportation device in the galaxey are the Gree Hyper Gates and this seems far to alien to be related to this technology." He puases letting it all sink in.

Irman clears his throat getting the attention of the floor, "So from what I gather here the Alderaanian guard is no more closer to finding a solution to this problem then they were before?"

Tory looks to his left to address Irman, "The Guard, yes. This is well beyond any of their knowledge. But not the Teras Kasi. The Theory reeks of rumors and legends amoung my order. Of beings that have been more elussive then any other force group known to us. In the writings of our archives there are instances of force signatures appearing to simply appear and dissapear much like our wayward Observer has done. With mere glimpes of an alien that defies any written account in the galaxey. I speak of the Aing-ti. The Force teleporters."

Greyy Steps in to add, "This gives us our location to look into. The Teras Kasi Archives tell that the Aing-tii only operate in one main area. The Kathol Rift one of the most mysterious and unavigatable places in all of space save the MAW."

"Out of the question Jensaarai." Strike spoke to answer Jaymach, "The Kathol rift is one of the most dangerous regions of space just as Directer Sabreen has just stated. Out of the recorded number of ships ever to risk a trip in that region less then 13 percent were ever heard from again."

The female android speaks matter of factly staying cool and collected.

The Teepo master to her left gave her puase yet again, "To normal beings and their technologies yes. But not to the Teepo Palidins. We have on occasion skirted the Maw and the Kathol rift to escape pursuers. If neccessary we can guide a search into the rift."

Greyy was about to answer when the nohgri Guards man stood up to speak in his steed. Greyy allowed him to speak. Nohgri did not often speak but when they did it was worth listening too.

"So, Master Teepo." the small greyy being addressed the Master his demeanor was a far cry from Irmans more controled with less emotion. It spoke of a disciplined mind.

"We enter the kathol rift, searching blindly for a ship that may be containing Ms. Horn. Scouring the region with out the navigation problems would take weeks this endouver would take months if not years. We have niether the time nor the resources to waste on such a game of cat and mouse with the Aing-Ti ships that mat hold her. Not with The new rise of the imperials. We have another empire that is rivaling palpatines reign forming. Little could be spared for such a search." He states all the facts in military fashion.

Before the bickering could continues Greyy took control of the conversation.

"ENOUGH!" The room fell quiet, "Now we all agree that we need to at least attempt to find Vonta. We have narrowed down her location from an entire galaxey of posiblities to a mere region of space. It would be foolhardy not to follow up on such a lead."

Turning to the Nohgri, "Shade of the Nohgri shadow guard is right instateing our concern for the new imperial threat. But as you were taught in training Soldier Shade. The Aldeeraanian guard well stand to defend our home but we shall not look away from a worthy cuase altogether."

"Mister Jaymach, I give you leave to the use of the guards newest crafts in order to seek out the Observer. Ms. Strike I would assume that you would join the Force users setting out." He address the room strike just gives a single nodd.

"We shall search her out so long as we have a hope of finding her I swear this to each and every one of you and the people that you all represent." He sat him self down and then heard a ring on his communicator pulling out a small hand held device his flips button.

"This is Greyy I said that I was not to be interrupted." He sounded sturn and irritated.

"Sir we have an energy signature materialive inside the base!" The deep booming voice on the other end said with urgency.

Greyy's eyes set on the communicator the soilder in him was taking over. "Where at."

"In the conference room!" At that a light begain to shimmer infront of the semicircular conference table. The light was about six feet high and three feet long. Sparkling star like particals swirl about the edges of the phenomenon.

Greyy, Toryn, and shade all stand out knocking their chairs down in the process. Their three guard helmets stayed on the table tops. There was no time for the three soilders to put them on. Faster then the force users would have thought was possible for a nonforce user they all pulled their blasters and had them trained on this new threat.

::How did this thing get in here? How did it penitrate the HOMEBASE!?:: Greyy thought to himself.

Strike was the last to move. She saw the event and acted logically.

An internal communicator that she uses in emergencies gives her a direct link to her computerized counter part Saber the main computer of the Nubulan b-2 the saber strike.

The dialogue continues in her minds eye.

"Saber we have a situation" Strike appears to be in her normal apparel of combat attire and a trench coat. Existing as a being in cyberspace with out a body she appears as she sees herself.

Strike's counter part materializes on the flat plane that exists in cyberspace. Saber was Strikes twin in looks but her complete opposite in attire and temperment. Saber appears in a fine dress that would be meant for for a ballroom dance then everyday attire. She held her head high with an attitude that spoke of refinery.

"So I see sister." She answers, "Running sensor swept."

Saber stands without moving. As if she is present in body but her mind is in another world. Which, in a sense, it was as she was working the ship systems aboard Saber strike. She came back with surprise speaking for her facial features.

"Well! Out with it!" Strike yells impaciently. This was her immediate danger to her coporeal form so she had little patience for hesitation.

"Sensors indicate the same field of energy as the one present at vonta's dissapearance." She answered.

At that Strike moved back into the real world breaking communicatins with the refined Saber. Only milliseconds had passed as she had conversed with Saber. (An advantage of communicating at cybernetic speeds.)

She jumped from her seat moving to place her self in front of the energy anomally.
