Above the Planet

*Roaring out of Cormond, Malice's shuttle made way into outer orbit. Once free of gravity, he punched it into hyperspace. First stop, Coruscant.*

*The defenses go on about their normal day to day routines. Nothing out of the ordinary is happening here.*

*Nothing is still happening. However they keep patrols and long range sensors going all the time.*

*MMP-18 drops out of hyperspace not far from Brentaal IV. The XO transmits the MMP's clearence code as the pilot plots an approach course that will bring the MMP down in one of the extinct volcanoes on the planets southern hemisphere as it was one of the few flat surfaces on the planet that hadn't been covered by buildings, landing pads, factories, or some other urban structure.*

*Out of hyperspace exits a bes'uliik fighter. Inside the pilot has lost a lot of blood due to internal bleeding, and is suffering organ failure. He flies as well as he can towards the surface, but it is looking dangerous for the wounded man.*

*The shuttle carrying Malice's sons enters orbit. Once the ship is ready, it jumps into hyperspace.

Half an hour later, another shuttle joins with Malice's fleet. The Deck Captain makes his way towards the bridge of the Dar'yaim III, and begins to follow out Malice's orders. Another half hour later, 15 scout ships are seen leaving the fleet. In another moment, they all jump away carrying their assignments. The fleet begins the preparations to leave for another campaign.*

*Malice, inside his personal bes'uliik fighter, takes it out towards the hyperspace routes. Once there, he jumps away.*

*While down below several more worker armies had been constructed and had left for other parts of the galaxy, the fleet finally finishes its preperations and moves out towards its target.*

*From the surface, more worker armies come and go. Two more have been created and more are being cranked out every day.*

*As another hyperspace jump had been completed, the small Chiss shuttle slowly began to power down it's systems in order to recycle and converse the last remaining drops of fuel and energy within the Hyperdrive. It had been getting quite the workout the last few days, and they would have to find a new transport when they reached their destination. The lack of sonic showers in the refresher was enough for a one way ticket, but a return Journey? Not on the pilot's life.*

*With the systems cooled enough for another jump, the pilot restarted his baby and began to cycle through the systems to make sure the cooldown protocol had worked. Seeing that everything was green lighted, he began punching in the new co-ordinates into the Navicomputer. As he had done so, the Sith, Lord Ahriman slowly moved from the aft section of the shuttle to the cockpit and decided to watch the last leg of their journey. Firing up the engines and blasting into a realm where stars melted into nothing more than blue lines, the shuttle slipped into the galaxy's embrace.*

*Through the holonet, orders were sent to the fleet. Within the hour it was mobilized and jumped away.*
