Title: The Blackhawk
Description: Kayen's first strike


KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 12:51 AM (GMT)
The Blackhawk had just left Tatooine Space and its pilot, Kayen Storm, had kept his eyes opened for his first target and eventually he found it... a small, unescorted freighter whose path took it along the edge of an asteroid belt. Kayen quickly took his own path into the opposite end of the asteroid belt, nimbly dodging some of the asteroids until he was well hidden. He then completely shut off the engines of the Blackhawk and waited, lifelessly in space. When the freighter was within range, Kayen started to vent gas from the engines of the ship to fake damage and sent a purposely garbled distress call to all ships in the vicinity, which just so happened to be the freighter.

"Unknown freighter, this is the Blackhawk. I have taken heavy damage to my engines and drifted into the asteroid belt. Life support is failing, please render assistance! I'll reward you with whatever I have. Please!"

The distress call started to repeat and Kayen smiled to himself as he waited for them to take the bait.

The ship contacted him back,

"Blackhawk, what is your cargo and destination? Hold on and we will be able to send some aid...."

The Commander was indeed afraid that this was a scheme, but none the less, could not risk the chance that it could be a genuine cry for help.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 01:04 AM (GMT)
Kayen's mind worked quickly to formulate a good excuse, and it didn't take him long to reply.

"I am carrying medical supplies to Lok... if I don't get assistance quickly, the supplies will spoil. I have already lost stasis generators."

That always was the sympathy ploy... medical supplies. Kayen chuckled at his own genius.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 01:23 AM (GMT)
"Alright.... We will send a small rescue team so that you can board our ship.... I'm not sure if we can repair yours though.... There is a small chance we will have to leave it behind... I'm sorry...."

After this, a small team in space suits boarded the BlackHawk and took Kayen back to the Freighter. They escorted him to the medical bay but as another team boarded the BlackHawk, they discovered it held no cargo at all.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 01:27 AM (GMT)
When the team boarded, the first thing Kayen did was look at them to see if he could see any weapons. If they had none, he would walk with them to the boarding bridge where he would stop and grab his ankle, screaming in agony.

"AHHH my ankle just popped... please help me walk."

He was trying to get them close enough to him to take them out...

Anakin - June 29, 2007 02:11 AM (GMT)
Two were sitting at the front of the controls looked at each other in suspicion. One of the crew was naieve enough to help him up, but suddenly they had an incoming transmission.

"Take the individual into custody!!! It's a fake! There was never a cargo inside his ship...he tricked us!!! He is probably armed! Use any means necessary to disable him!"


KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 02:20 AM (GMT)
Kayen heard the transmission and quickly drew his DL-18 Blaster Pistol, taking the naive soldier around the throat with his other arm as a human shield in one swift movement. With his blaster, he blindly fired two shots at the two men in the cockpit, hoping to take them by surprise.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 09:06 AM (GMT)
Two blaster shots were fired from the enemy. One of the crew was shot in the head, the other one merely in his shoulder. He ducked also grabbed his blaster and started to fire rapidly in a desperate move to hit the intruder. He shot several blaster shots at the crewman he was holding captive, which killed him in an instant.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 09:25 AM (GMT)
Kayen kept the dead crewman in front of him because it would have still absorbed fire. He fired two more times into the cockpit of the Blackhawk and backed into the boarding tube quickly, trying to keep his back to the wall so that he could look both ways.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 09:28 AM (GMT)
the pilot kept firing at the strange intruder hoping he would hit him but without success. His arm was getting tired from the shot he got through his shoulder. Eventually he managed to grab a com-link to call for back-up, it would arrive in only a few minutes.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 09:33 AM (GMT)
Kayen used the moment of communication and fired into the back of the pilot. He dropped the dead human shield and hurried into the freighter to see if he could find anything of value. If it took more than a few minutes, he would return to the Blackhawk and forcibly blow the docking clamps, taking off at high speed.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 09:36 AM (GMT)
the back-up arrived at the bridge only finding three dead crewman. They later spread out in the ship. Two men were lurking through the corridors while one was ordered to patrol in the centre of the ship.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 09:40 AM (GMT)
All right then Kayen didn't leave. He snuck around the ship slowly, waiting for one of the patrolling men in the shadows of the corridor. When the man passed, Kayen darted out behind him and grabbed him around the neck, trying to cover his mouth at the same time.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 09:42 AM (GMT)
The soldier elbowed him giving him a hard kick in his stumach. Then the soldier turned around but Kayen stood too close to him to use his blaster. He used his fist against Kayen's face which gave him a pretty hard smack. Still Kayen didn't give up and refused to fall without a fight.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 09:47 AM (GMT)
Kayen took the kick and then the blow to the face, shaking his head and spitting a little blood. But he was a Zabrak and knew how to fight. He quickly lunged forward and got inside of the crewman's range, catching him with a quick and incredibly hard punch to the rib cage. When he turned around from the impact, Kayen followed up with a quick punch to his kidney.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 09:54 AM (GMT)
He held on to his chest, his mouth was full of blood. Angered and clinging his teeth he punched again in Kayen's direction, but he moved very slow.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 09:56 AM (GMT)
Kayen laughed and jumped backwards, grabbing for his own blaster pistol and then he drew it and pinned it against the crewman's jaw, whispering.

"What is your cargo?"

Anakin - June 29, 2007 06:43 PM (GMT)
"Euhm, we...we... transport spices from...the moon of Kessel..." He stuttered...He tried to reach for his blaster but he was shaking very hard. He grabbed it and fired straight at his opponents blaster, it shot right out of his hand. With no weapons Kayen had little chance to escape now.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 11:13 PM (GMT)
Kayen yelled and shook his hand as the blaster was shot out of his hand but he quickly grabbed the soldier's own wrist and overpowered him, pointing his blaster up to his own chin and then Kayen squeezed his hand, forcing him to kill himself. Once he was dead, Kayen quickly took the man's blaster and checked him for credits before vanishing into the shadows of the ship. He once again swung the advantage to his favor...

Anakin - June 29, 2007 11:19 PM (GMT)
The crew of the ship heard a blaster shot echoing from the center of the ship, but when they arrived all they found was a dead body on the ground. They decided to spread out again in an attempt to find the invader.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 11:22 PM (GMT)
Kayen was waiting around the corner from the dead body and when the crew arrived to investigate, Kayen quickly ducked around the corner and passed them hopefully without being seen. He was heading for the power generator of the ship.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 11:34 PM (GMT)
The crew kept scoping the ship but found no sign of the invader. One of them ran back to the cockpit and sent out a transmission, calling for more aid. Though he knew it would not come quickly.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 11:38 PM (GMT)
Kayen reached the power generator of the ship and he quickly entered the room, checking for guards first before he pointed his blaster directly at the generator computer. He took cover around the corner and then fired. The generator exploded and everything in the ship went out, especially lights.

Anakin - June 29, 2007 11:40 PM (GMT)
The crew began to panic and took their flashlights from their belts, waving them around desperately in the darkness. Their chances of finding their attacker was now almost impossible. They were now hoping for the aid to arrive as soon as possible before the situation became more dangerous.

KayenXStorm - June 29, 2007 11:53 PM (GMT)
Unfortunately Kayen didn't have a flashlight, but he was used to working in low light conditions, so he slowly made his way back through the ship until he heard the crew talking. He used their flashlights and aimed slowly and carefully, before opening fire on the crew who had gathered.

KayenXStorm - June 30, 2007 12:04 AM (GMT)
Kayen's blaster fire tore through the gathering of men, instantly killing two of them. The remaining 3 took cover around the corner and returned fire, causing Kayen to duck around his own corner. Blaster fire lit up the corridor for a few minutes before Kayen knelt around the corner and fired rapidly. His bolts tore into the chest of two of the men. Only one more remaining... Kayen quickly scurried into the corridor and approached the third man, taking him down with a blaster bolt to the thigh and then he finished him with a final bolt to the forehead. Kayen checked the bodies of the men, taking two of their hold out blasters and placing them into his belt. Then he found his own blaster in the darkness and examined it for damage on the way to the cargo bay. After about an hour, he had transferred about a quarter of a ton of spices to the Blackhawk. None of the remaining spices were any good. Kayen muttered to himself as he returned to the Blackhawk. After a moment, he unhooked himself from the other vessel and left before the reinforcements arrived. Once he was at a safe distance, the entire freighter exploded as it had been rigged to do. Sitting in the Pilot's chair, Kayen set a course back to Tatooine.
