“There was one other...a woman who was part of the Empire. Called herself ‘Iota’.” Was an Imperial Captain; was very close to her.” Vel whispered, staring back toward Katya, who was sleeping in her cell.
“She also had this.” Vel had told them, holding up Katya’s lightsaber.
English
-
[i]Victoria would only study the weapon for a short time. She shook her head, going silent as she would look down in deep thought before muttering to herself, just to where Vel could hear her.[/i] "Iota.. that's a Greek letter, I believe. Odd, I've heard that name before. What if we could free this Katya, and draw whomever Iota is out, free from whatever shelter she has taken? It's horrible, to use a woman as bait.. But we need to know who this Iota is, anyway."
-
“Sounds like a good idea...though we need to keep her under guard.” Vel whispers to Victoria, before banging on the Cell. “Guess what, dipshit? You’re actually being released!” The Mandalorian sarcastically told Katya, who slowly got wake and gave a ‘I’ll kill you in your sleep’ type of stare.
-
[i]Victoria, staring through the window, would give Katya a "I'll kill you here and now" type of stare. But she knew that she could be better than that. Perhaps this Katya could be better than what Victoria thought of her.[/i] "When will we release her, then?"
-
“That’s On you. Right now, I’m in the middle of a god damn rebuilding effort; lost the majority of our air support during the attack; only have 5 or so ARC fighters left here, and only 500 or so clones.” Velinnea tells her.
-
"Mm. Would it be advisable if I go ahead and throw her out, chained, and wait? I will prime my communications and set up something of a trap.. this Iota would be smarter than to barge right in, though." [i]Victoria sighed. She clearly knew the name, but from where, she didn't know.[/i]
-
“That sounds like a good idea. Use smarts against...whatever smarts she has.” Velinnea had told Victoria, pulling out Katya’s lightsaber. “What do we do with this?” She asked.
-
"...Keep that thing away from her." [i]Victoria murmured, staring at the lightsaber.[/i] "I don't want that thing in her possession. Keep it, if you have to."
-
“Duh. Not exactly going to give her a weapon to use. I’ll keep it for now...but where exactly do we place her?” Vel asked Victoria.
-
"So far, I don't know. Somewhere that this Iota will come to us. But not somewhere so secluded and unfortified that she would bring whatever remains of the Imperials, or more." [i]Victoria sighed.[/i] "I'll handle it."
-
Vel sighed, mostly out of a little bit of fear of this failed. “Alright. Be safe, Victoria; if this Iota brings reinforcements, call me. I’ll be nearby.”Victoria had told them, two clones opening the cell, dragging Katya out, who spit some saliva onto the ground.
-
[i]Victoria would nod, before approaching Katya herself and looking down upon her.[/i] "Let go." [i]She commanded, then catching Katya with one hand and holstering her up, before pushing her forwards.[/i] "Since you don't seem to have a home, I'm bringing you to a place better for both of us. No, not another prison. You keep quiet and don't try anything, and I'll see about something working out for you today. You don't follow those two instructions, and I blow a hole through your back and call it justification for those innocents that you killed."
-
Katya stayed silent, but seemed to nod in understanding. One of the clones went up to Victoria. “Ma’am....do you need anything? Speeder, supplies?” The clone asked.
-
"Rest would be nice. ...No, I think I'm fine, thank you. You two, come along." [i]Victoria motioned to the two clones, of which the one that hadn't approached her had then begun to follow: a survivor of one of the battles, it seemed, though she had been out of combat for some time. She was back in service, though.[/i] [spoiler]You can guess who this is.[/spoiler] [i]Victoria didn't speak to Katya, throughout their trip. It wasn't out of disgust: no, it was personal respect, that she didn't respond. There was no reason to torture this woman, no matter whatever she had done, with questions and insults.[/i]
-
“Yes ma’am.” They said, following Victoria and the dragged Katya. Katya simply sighed, knowing what’s exactly could happen...she didn’t want to hear the idea of Charlia having to be captured the way she did.
-
[i]Some time later, and the four would arrive away from the city, near the outskirts of Dojoville. Victoria had begun to send out a transmission on a recovered link to this Iota's channel, in the scenario that she was still hidden.[/i] "If this is Iota, or whatever you go by - I am Victoria Irae. I currently hold your friend, Katya, in my possession outside of Dojoville. I will free her life, upon these terms of surrender: that you turn yourself in, and-" [b]BTZZZ![/b] "What th-" [b]BTZZZ![/b] [i]Victoria would yell out in anguish, before falling over, knocked out from the electric shock. The traitor Clone, who had aimed at her first, looked back at her fellow before lifting Katya up.[/i]
-
Katya would’ve looked up seeing the clone... “Who are you?” She whispers, looking up toward the clone. Meanwhile on the comm, Someone would heard shouting out for Victoria. Backup was on its way...
-
"I told you that you weren't dying, didn't I? You're not getting sold off, either." [i]Charlia.[/i] "Hold still." [i]She would use her blaster, switching it off of it's stun form in order to blast off Katya's bonds. There, she forced the rifle into Katya's hands.[/i] "Go, go! To Dojoville, we're head into the alleys!"
-
Katya nods. “Hugs later? It’s...been too long, Charlia.” She says, grabbing the blaster and made a run for it. Speeders were heard behind the two...the clones were on them.
-
"Yes, hugs later!" [i]Charlia shouted, drawing her pistols as she would focus on whoever was coming for backup as she ran. Her biggest concerns were her range, and Katya's safety.[/i]
-
The two would’ve made a run for it, speeders being heard getting closer and closer...
-
[i]Once they entered Dojoville, Charlia then pulled Katya into an alleyway, pistol raised as she continued to move.[/i] "Quiet. Quiet.." [i]She muttered, waiting to hear the approaching speeders.[/i]
-
Most of the speeders passed them...except for two, which slowed down right before the alleyway entrance. “They’re on to us.” Katya whispered to Charlia.
-
"Quick, then." [i]Charlia would murmur, as she grabbed onto Katya's arm and brought her down a separate alleyway.[/i] "We can't fight them. The best that we can do is disappear, though."
-
“And where exactly would that be? The Dojo’s gains us, the Empire’s destroyed...” Katya states to Charlia, Velinnea and Sun-Rei within chase of the two.
-
"That's why I said disappear, dearest Katya." [i]Charlia would swiftly respond, soon turning into yet another alleyway. She seemed to be maneuvering through the places that she knew.[/i] "Lumen Solis would be our best bet.. there, we can.. live out our lives, or perhaps pursue justice against this Dojo."
