STARLIGHT Beautiful Hostage (Episode 8)

"I just received orders from Jedi Ceviran and Captain's location. We should reach the roof for them to evacuate them." Axo runs back to the pilot seat and starts Vigilance Beacon.

On the platform beneath Vigilance Beacon security system activates, and locks down Vigilance Beacon by capturing the legs of the ship, not allowing it to move at all. Sicilia and Axo could feel a slight shake inside the ship as they fail to leave the platform. Inside the Galaxy's Star building, inside the control room the DJ chiss agent is hacking the controls, while two dead security guards are laying down next to his feet, that he obviously killed when he broke in. He makes holo call with one of the twins: "Vigilance Beacon sabotaged sir. What are my next orders?" Chiss is watching the twin on holo picture running through the halls of the building, holding his own holo communicator in front himself as he talks to the Chiss Agent: "I was unable to reach the target, a Jedi Master slowed me down. I took care of her but target was able to reach elevator and is heading for the roof. Sabotage that elevator now. Do not let them reach the roof. I sense two more jedi up there. They are here to protect her." Chiss quickly access the computer with his inhumanly fast finger work on the keyboard: "Copy that sir." Elevator that was going up with Jag, Diva and Reporter inside stops moving and lights inside turn off, leaving the people inside it in dark. Well the Camera was still giving some light, recording scared face of Sadaria. "Oh no we are all going to die here!" To start elevator moving, Jag needs to counter hack the Chiss' skills via elevator console (Cunning 18). If he fails, the twins will reach them.

"Ladies please I need to concentrate." Jag turns light on his helmet and starts working on the elevator's console (cunning).

The member 'Jag' has done the following action : Dices roll

'Skill 1d20' : 9

14.5+9=23.5vs18 SUCCESS

When the captain fixes the elevator, lights inside turn on again, and elevator starts going up towards the roof. Both twi'leks that were in elevator with him were happy and each grabs him under arm. Camera recording this broadcasts live across entire Coruscant planet and public is giving him applaud and whistles as they would to a hero who just saved two very hot twi'lek girls rivals. One of the twins reaches for the Elevator but then feels how life forces inside the elevator are going up, and now are again out of his reach. Twin assassin frowns at his agent's failure: "You failed to stop the elevator. Now we have to do this on a hard way. Meet me at the roof, while I keep attentions of the Jedi, you will have clear shot at our target." Chiss Agent nods: "Yes sir, on my way." Elevator finally reaches the roof of Galaxy Star and door opens. From there Lianna Tak, Sadaria Kem and Jag-Dur exit unharmed.

Jag walks out of the elevator and regroups with Ceviran and Barracudas: "There is a sith assassin after us, they tried to sabotage elevator but I fixed it and we are here now. I am unable to reach Jedi Master Zemalia, are you two alright?" Jag glances down and sees Vigilance Beacon struggling to take off the platform.

Having just asked the question if the crew may needed some help, she heard the sound of the clamps attaching to the ship. "What was that?" Moving to the cockpit, she takes a seat in the co-pilot chair and runs a diagnostic, seeing a lockdown on the lower part of the ship preventing them from lifting off. "That son of a... They locked us in, I'm not having this." She responds, typing away on one of the consoles she transmits a message to the rest of the crew, hoping the sith weren't able to block that too. "This is Sicilia to Captain Jag, the sith have locked us in, We're gonna try to undo the hack, but we don't know the state of the security system, if they have fried the circuity it can take longer and I don't know if we will be able to assist. Sicilia out." Turning around she speaks to Axo. "Try to override the lockdown, if we both work together we should be able to do it, if not, there is always blowing the clamps up. You up for it? Or do you have a better idea?" She says typing away on the console on her arm, the hacking device that she had just purchased, preparing it for her next course of action.

Jag speaks to Zemalia as he watches the Vigilance Beacon from the top of Galaxy Star: "We need to find Zemalia after we secure Diva. Vigilance Beacon cannot help us now, someone locked them down for the platform, Sicilia just called to confirm this." Jag glances to his right and spots the damage done by fallen imperial ship on the platform, and then steps away from the edge of the building returning to Barrcudas and Ceviran, while holding two fingers on his ear comilnik to reply to Sicilia: "Negative. Forget about the ship and evacuate those innocent people from this building and those platforms. We cannot risk any more civilians in this battle. Only after everyone is safe try to set Vigilance Beacon free." Jag then approaches to Diva to ask her about the shuttle she mentioned earlier: "Miss Sadaria, you said you have shuttle on the roof? We could use it now to get you to safety."

Diva did not reply back to Captain because she was too busy arguing with the reporter. "You accused me for death of people even if you know that this is your fault. If you had just shut your mouth none of this would happen. You let the entire galaxy know, including the Empire." Camera still broadcasting live captures the two twi'leks arguing, and repotrer still shooting questions at Diva: "People have right to know everything, just like they have right to know how much did you exactly pay for your breasts to look perfect like that? Because everyone knows that they aren't real." Diva opens her mouth shocked and insulted at the next question that the Reporter just dared to ask. She makes a cute scream of pain and tackles down the reporter. They fall down near Barracudas as they start "cat fight", screaming as they are pulling each other for lekku. Senator's shuttle lands at the landing zone on the roof, he (Zarij Sapher) came here to rescue his love.

Jag's face turns red under his helmet, he was never in situations like this. He decides to give Barracudas the honor of protecting Sadaria Kem: "Diva's security compromised. See what you can do to protect her Barracudas."

"Sadaria!" Senator Zarij calls for Diva as he exits his shuttle and runs towards her with escort of two republic soldiers. Diva frees herself from Lianna and turns towards Zarij, not believing he came here for her. She runs towards him and he catches her in hug, while camera recording everything and broadcasting live, them, and Lianna trying to pick up her stuff from floor. "I am sorry I never wanted to admit to anyone, I missed you so much, I was under a lot of pressure." Senator tries to comfort her in a hug, and suddenly from unknown direction one of the escort republic troopers is sniped down. While the second escort trooper is trying to discover from which direction the hit came, he ends up sniped between eyes as well. Both troopers collapse at Senator and Diva, and the two of them panic, and attempt to reach for the shuttle to escape. But they end up force pushed away from it and fall down on the floor. The sith assassin was here, and he keeps walking towards them. Suddenly his twin comes out behind him, and it looked like he separated from his body. First twin takes second twin for hand, and they both in a sync touch their forehead and then unleash TK force power empowered via Force Bond towards Senator's Shuttle, pushing the entire ship of the building so that their targets have nowhere to run anymore. The twins scan the area but they see only one person with lightsabers - Barracudas, maybe their senses fooled them, they cannot see another jedi, but somehow someone else here is strong in the Force as well. Diva turns to her love: "If we survive this, we can survive everything."

Captain Jag may now decide positions of his crew. Senator does not participate in combat nor the reporter.

Diva (25hp) > TwinA (54hp) > TwinB(54hp) > DJ(30hp)

Diva (25hp 30sp) > Jag (65hp 32.5sp) > Barracudas (65hp 30sp) > TwinA (54hp) > Ceviran (22.5hp 30sp) > TwinB (54hp) > DJ (30hp)

Jag signals with his hand at Barracudas and Ceviran, to take their positions. Jag activates shields to protect his allies in battle (since his turn is after Diva's). "Barracudas do what you can but don't lose Diva from sight. Jag doesn't suggest anything to Ceviran, he has a feeling she knows what to do."
