Satine Kryze's Turmoil

To say that was nervous Satine Kryze would be an understatement. If she was not strapped in to her chair right now. She is sure she would be on the ground looking like a nervous wreck. She had been dredging this flight to New Mandalor for the last week.

After threatening and almost kill several people she had some how managed to get her entire power base on an old transport ship just in the nick of time. Now they were on final approach to the planet an tensions in the ship were rising, but what could Satine do. She had rolled the dice and lost and this was part of the punishment of her choice.

Maybe if she had not listened to the old fools in the elder council no of this would have happened. Or maybe if she had followed Obi-Wan advice and tried to make peace with them things could have been different. Ah Obi-Wan there was a good chance she would never see the man again. She left in such a hurry off of Coruscant she didn't even get a chance to vist him. She had told her self at the time she would show up at the temple with Jack's men in toe to surprise the man.

How foolish she had been. She never even got the chance to tell the man how she feels about him. While this thoughts were running through her heard the transport ship dropped over of hyperspace just shy of the star system. The pilots throught something had gone wrong with the engines. That was until two massive Mandalorian frigates appeared almost out of nowhere right in front of them.

Alerts where going off inside of the transport. As their systems screamed at them that weapons had been locked on. The frigates sent messages asking for their purpose in this system. The captain of the transport sent word back that they were carry political refugees from Mandalor on the orders of Dutchess Satine Kryze. Though the transport pilots could not hear it. The captain's of the two frigates were absolutely crying right now along with most of their command staff.

They had been informed that Satine Kryze former Dutchess of Old Mandalor would be making her way into the sector. They were also told the truth surrounding the circumstances just in case someone on the ship tried to pull anything. However they were professionals and they would not bring shame to their Mand'lor. The frigate captains sent word for the to move alone and fly in the directed vector.

The transport acknowledged the commands when one of the pilots looked ways for a moment to see the course he was greeted with a scream the next second. He looked at his co pilot only to see him staring out side looking at empty space. "Where do-" Before he could finish the other pilot just shuck his head. Not willing to dwell on the issue the ship started it flight to the planet.

Along the way the passages were greeted with all the industry on goings of the New Mandalorian start system. Every planetary body had something going on. All of the gas platform had plants placed just in their atmosphere taking him their gasses. All of the Gas giant planet's moons had large colonies dotted arcoss most of their surface's. Most moons had been terraform and look like lush garden worlds.

As the ship moved in to the asteroid field separating the inner planets from the outer ones. Satine Kryze saw thousands of mining operations collecting raw materials form the seemly endless field of resources. Now that they were closer to the system's sun she could that something had in cased it. It seemed like these people where even collecting the energy from their own sun. Just like before in the outer planets every world in the inner section were colonized.

The trip was coming to an end as the ship approached New Mandalor. Satine Kryze felt like she was looking at a smaller version of Coruscant. The whole planet looked like a giant city. She could see a steam.of ship entering and leaving the planet. As they entered the atmosphere of the planet she was able to get a better look at the architecture of the planet and she was shocked. This planet was one of the most advanced she had ever seen. Form just the designs of the buildings to the look of the speeders in use.

Everything looked as they it was 100 year ahead of the current technology. As they passed over one of the many space ports on the planet she saw what she thought was a capital ship sitting in a hangar. Well she thought it was a capital ship it was too big to be anything else. Just who are these monsters it had been 5 years at most since they had entered the galactic stage. How did they manage to pull this off.

Satine Kryze knew if she did not die after this meeting she would do everything in her power to discover just how they had managed to become this advance this quickly. The trip came to an end as they landed in front of a very large compound. Outside of the compound gate were several people standing at a attention with one sitting in a chair in the middle of the others. With the shuttle landed Satine Kryze got a better look at the ground and noticed who had been sitting outside in the chair.

Jack was sun bathing in a beach chair when the transport ship finally arrived and landed. He could hear someone frantically running towards him causing him to look up just in time to see Satine kneeling on the ground. " As ordered I have arrived to the planet with my people in one weeks time what are my following order sir." Jack looked at the watch on his wrist and nodded happily, " Ah right on time with 20 minutes to spare. Keep that up and I may have to grant you your title back, but I digress on to business.

Your people will wait here transports are on the way to show them to their new residents. As of this moment they are on house arrest for the next 8 months after that they will be free to move around the planet as much as they want however they will not permit to leave the world for two years. As for you I have an assignment for you to complete."

Satine Kryze was quite surprised. She was sure he was going to simply kill her and her people that what she would have done if she where in his situation. She however was not about to look a gifted house in the mouth and just went with it, " As you command Mand'lor. My life is yours to do as you see fit." Jack looked at her eyebrow rised," Yea you can stop with that kiss ass shit just talk normally. Truth be told I was just going to leave you on this planet for the next 5 years but Obi-Wan came to my office to plead for mercy for you. As a favor to the man I am going to send you to Coruscant to help with my Senators in the Senate.

You will still be under house arrest but a modified version of it. You can go where the Senators send you and back to the residence, and you can have some visitors. They however will have to be vetted before you are allowed to see them along with a few other stipulations, but we will get all of that sorted when we get inside. Come its lunch time and I am starving."

Satine Kryze mind was in turmoil at this moment. Obi-Wan had asked for mercy for her. Did he care for her, what was the cost he had to pay for this, is this way her punishment is so light right now. A thousand things were running through her mind but she still manage to absently follow behind Jack into the building. This was going to be a long day but atlest she was still alive.

Meanwhile in one of the many communication facilities on the planet. They had just received word that the bugged data had just been sent off. The intelligence agents worked to confirm who sent it and back trace all people who had a hand in the sending of the information. Situation black was now ineffect it would be one month till Blue Team was combat ready so the operation was planned for a green light in one months time. Now they only needed a target on Neimoidia to aim their weapons at, and they would be getting that target very soon.
