[OOM] Above Onderon - The Wyrm.

[stuck_mynock]

The trip to the Wyrm is fairly uneventful. They slide into its vast, almost empty landing bay and land silently, lights flicking off one by one.

Atton peers out of the cockpit speculatively, adjusting his gauntlet. The walls are metal, that much is clear, but wound through with something dark, organic and porous, that pulsates with the heartbeat coming from deeper within the ship.

"Nice."

"S'no problem."

[will_scarlett]

"'ow tall is this ship?"

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy looks at the numbers in the lift.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Very tall. Taller than me, even," solemnly.

[will_scarlett]

"Must be quite tall then."

[guppy_sandhu]

"There's certainly a lot of lift buttons."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

The lift stops with a ping, opening out onto a long, empty hallway, lined with pillars.

"Well, this is nice."

There's a heavy set of double doors at the end. Atton heads for them.

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, seems like they're makin' it easy for us."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy trying not to be nervous, just follows, looking for traps.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Maybe they want us to come." Beat. "So that they can give us cuddles. Or maybe they just haven't detected us yet."

[will_scarlett]

"'opefully 'avena seen us yet."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Is that really likely?"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Maybe? I didn't see any cameras around here. I don't make enough of an impression in the Force for them t'pick up on, though you two might."

[will_scarlett]

"Truly, 'ow'd we mark it?"

[guppy_sandhu]

"Wouldn't the ship have detected our ship?"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Maybe. Probably. Let's not worry about that just yet."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, let's just fight an get it o'er with."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy nods, taking a deep breath and preparing himself.
Pity comes too late
"Let's do this."
Turn around and face your fate
Kick ass. Complete the mission. Get home safely, alive. He touches the locket around his neck for a second, then switches the blaster to his other hand and draws his sword.
An eternity of this before your eyes...

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton flicks a hand, pushing the doors open and striding in.

The observation deck is fairly bare. Just a wide, circular area that seems to be made predominantly out of glass.

Koren is standing at one end, with two fairly spindly and unimpressive droids on either side of him, facing away.

[will_scarlett]

Will looks to Atton since he's the one in charge at this point.

[guppy_sandhu]

"Be careful, I think he's going to monologue." Guppy whispers.
Order your fine horses now
He keeps his sword at the ready.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton reaches down to his belt, unclipping a vibrodisk and sending it flying towards Koren.

It doesn't work so well. Koren turns, sharply, batting it back at Atton. It whizzes over his head and embeds itself in the door behind them.

"I thought that'd work better," Atton remarks.

[will_scarlett]

"Was a good idea."

[guppy_sandhu]

"I don't suppose there's any point asking him to surrender?" Guppy whispers.
Raise up your hand to the level of your eyes.
He's not trembling.
This is the choice. This is the point of no return
Considering he's seen this guy in action, seen him destroy planets to get to them... his expression is more the one he wears when performing emergency surgery than when hiding in a quivering heap.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Nah, probably not," Atton murmurs to Guppy.

Koren gets a bright, chirpy smile.

A little wearily, from Koren: "I was wondering when you'd show up."
