OOC: you are indeed mistaken, the RP takes place after the NJO.

OOC: Ah, then if you wouldn't mind, could you IM me saying where I can find this information? Because I checked the forum feedback board and it says that the time era is indeed that of the Old Republic.

OOC:This RP is set in a time of its own....We can pull from different parts of the SW Universe....its easier to develop stories if we don't have to worry about what happened before or after....

OOC: We still can't deny the fact that the Z-95 Headhunter is a starfighter and going up against a Jedi Gunship.

OOC: Big deal. There were plenty of times when a lone starfighter was used to take out a much larger craft. Take the Death Star for instance, Luke blew it up pretty much by himself.

OOC: The Death Star had a weak spot and the rebels were able to exploit it. Gunships don't work like that. What's your next move more like???

OOC: Ever played Rogue Squadron? A fighter can pretty much take out anything, weaknesses or not. Besides, a fighter is faster than a gunship, so I'd say a fighter is very much capable of taking out a jedi ship. Besides, a gunship is a corvette, how many jedi are you carrying?

OOC: Fine spectacularly bad example. But, my point still stands. Besides in a couple of runs I could slag your a few of your turrets with missles. I also mentioned on Coruscant it was a modifed Headhunter. Plus, any fighter is 20 times more manuverable and faster than a gunship could ever be no matter how modified it is. No offense, but I think that any fighter besides a Tie fighter or interceptor could kill a gunship. It's really just a big, slow target.
IC: Kor'in laughed to himself as the Baron Wolf's shots went wide. The gunners were obviously unskilled. Aiming his shots for the communications array he fired off a volley of missles. Without the comm there would be no way to request help.
Kor'in then realized that there were proton torpedoes heading straight towards him. Putting his ship in a spin that almost caused him to blackout he headed straight for the planet. At the last second he put his ship in a smuggler's reverse. The missles, caught in the planet's gravity well, rammed straight into the atmosphere were they would either explode or smash into the surface
Flipping his ship around he aimed another volley of concussion missles straight for the laser turrets. The size of the ship almost guaranteed it would be unable to dodge in time.
Making his final fun he aimed right at the hyperdrive in order to prevent their escape. He had them there was no way they would be able to get away from him.

OOC: as far as agility is concerned, I'm sure you are right. Now lets get back to Rping shall we?
IC: Riko noticed how the pilot dodged the shots easily. This seemed to be no normal pilot. He then noticed to his horror that it was firing at them, aiming for the communications devices. Riko had no chance to avoid these shots. He only hoped that the shields would be able to resists the blow coming from the fighter.
[glow=blue,2,300]Everybody hold on!![/glow]
He turned the ship sideways immediately and the shots hit the bottom of the gunship. Everything inside seemed to be breaking apart as the ship rocked from the explosions just outside. Riko checked his monitors. The Shields were still up. The missles seemed powerful, but not powerful enough to take out the shields.
Riko's first manoeuvre gave him time to take the ship down and just managed to avoid the next round of missles. However the missles started to turn around to try and hit the ship again. In that split second, RIko turned the ship wide and brought it up again to make another dodge and turned sharply to where the missles went and fired a round of laser blasts, letting the Force tell him where to fire. The missles blew into a million shards of small white flames. But he could not avoid the next round of missles. The hip rocked again from the explosion. This was a critical hit where it not for the excellent modifications Kento made to the Baron Wolf. Riko checked his screens and noticed that the shields had lost much of its energy and that the Hyperdrive had been damaged. They wouldn't be able to run so far away now.
[glow=blue,2,300]Bugger! This is why I hate flying![/glow]
The Baron Wolf's comm devices were still up. Riko sent a distress signal to them and began firing another volley of shots at the Headhunter followed by more Proton Torpedoes. If this didn't work, Riko still had some tricks left.
OOC: I'm sorry if this post is a bit long but Kieran made to many attacks on the ship. It would be better to limit them to one per turn please.

OOC: Sorry about that, I'll shrink them down.
Kor'in activated his custom jammers preventing their transmission from the comm. He fired off several more missles into the Wolf and opened up with lasers blasting away at the Baron Wolf's missiles. He put his ship through a unique seires of spins, turns and loops, manuevers designed so that no laser no matter how advanced could track him. He faced the ship and began powering up a unique weapon of his. All he needed to do was avoid the next few volleys and the Baron Wolf was done for.
[glow=red,2,300]I have you now Jedi![/glow]

Osman let out a puff as the Spectre went out of hyperspace, 'stupid slow pregnant dog,' as a mechanic stepped out of the engine room, his face and tools caked in oil and dirt.
'All fixed sir.'
'Good work, sad timing. What?' Osman looked through the cockpit to see the Baron Wolf and a strange ship aiming at it.
Osman didn't hesitate, 'FIRE!' The pilots tapped a few buttons as the spectre fired its huge railgun and a volley of homing missiles and pulse blasts....

Riko was truly impressed. This one was no normal pilot at all. The Force was strong with him. He sensed danger coming from the ship. He had to finish this soon. A few seconds later, Riko activated the gunship's special weapon, Composite-beam pinpoint laser turrets. Riko pressed the firing accessory and power green laser beams began to shoot from either side of the ship, pinpointing the headhunter. Whoever this was, he would need an impossible speed to avoid these shots. A second laster, Riko noticed that the Spectre had finally emerged from Hyperspace.
[glow=blue,2,300]It's about time[/glow] Riko muttered to himself.

Kor'in watched as a new ship appeared from hyperspace.
[glow=red,2,300]Great, just what i need more jedi.[/glow]
Instead of hitting the Baron wolf he aimed at his new target and fired his special weapon, a minaturized version of one of the Death Star's superlasers. This one though generated an EM pulse which would disable it's target.
[glow=red,2,300]Let's us see how they deal with that.[/glow]
The Baron Wolf's shots then impacted on his rear shields disabling one of his engines. Realizing he was outnumbered he fired off one last volley of missiles at the Baron Wolf, then headed towards Mon Calamari. He was finished here.

Osman and the crew activated their night vision goggles as the spectre was shutting down, 'I knew that theing needed a little modernising...'
The Spectre approached Mon Calamari as the SKS base generated its emergency tractor beam. 'Hope Skye's waiting,' thought Osman as he felt for the tiny box in his pocket.

OOC: Miniaturized version of Death Star Laser? From a starfighter? That's a bit much from a headhunter. Anyways...............
IC: Riko was surprised at the power of the laser beam that the pilot shot at the Spectre and to his horror, they had been fully hit. Thankfully, the Baron Wolf's laser beams hit the fighter, which was now heading towards the planet, retreating. The enemy's missles had hit the baron wolf but not very badly. It seemed as if the pilot knew he was outnumbered and fired carelessly considering his exceptional skills. The Wolf's shields were down and the forward stabalisers were down.
[glow=blue,2,300]Thank goodness for that! Artoo units, see what you can do about those stabalisers.[/glow]
Riko heard the droids beep and tootle as they went to fix the damaged components of the ship. He also sensed Kalo's eagerness to keep the fight on. He turned to regard him and said
[glow=blue,2,300]Not now Kalo. Lets end it like this now and land on the surface. We really need to have this ship repaired and for the Jedi to get some rest after this horrible day.[/glow]
Kalo just shrugged and relaxed on his seat again.
Not long after, the Baron Wolf entered one of the surface docking bays. All the Jedi on board left the ship and the cockpit crew were warmly greeted by the Senator Nekto Sym.
Well, I'm glad you are all alive and well. I imagine you've been through a terrible ordeal. When you had to leave in such a hurry, I was worried something really bad was going to happen. Tell me, how are things on Coruscant?
[glow=blue,2,300]Terrible I'm afraid. The Sith have taken over the planet. I don't know what they're going to do next. But for now, we need to plan on our next move. I have a Council calling and my Padawans are going to sit the trial. I hope Osman and Ragab get here safely. We were attacked by an unknown pilot on a starfighter and we all sustained a lot of damage. We need the Hyperdrive and the foward stabalisers fixed on the Baron Wolf.[/glow]
A native Mon Calamari approached the group.
Sirs, a gunship is arriving fast towards the planet. Looks like it is arriving through emergency tractor beams from the SKS base.
Riko's heart leapt at the news. His padawan was safe.
[glow=blue,2,300]That must be the Spectre. The unknown disabled it up there.[/glow]
As fast as he could, Riko made his way towards the SKS HQ.

Skye kept looking for Osman until she found Leylenne....Skye and Leylenne talked for a bit...then Leylenne retired to her room for a while. Skye looked for Osman some more...hoping his ship hadn't crashed or anything...

Riko was running so fast through the tunnels of the city that as he turned a corner, he nearly crashed on commander Skye. Riko stopped short and bowed to the woman.
[glow=blue,2,300]I'm sorry commander. I was heading for the SKS headquarters.[/glow]
Skye didn't seem to care abou that. She asked the first question her mind came up with.
Do you know if Osman's ok?
Riko stood erect again and said
[glow=blue,2,300]Yes, he's alright I think. His ship was disabled up in space after we met a stranger who tried to kill us, but not to worry. I can feel his presence in the Force as well as my Padawan's, Ragab. They should arrive to the HQ soon enough.[/glow]
Riko could see from Skye's eyes that she was really glad to hear the news. A smile spread upon her face, making her look even more beautiful than she already was. So the two ran towards the SKS HQ together, Riko running at a lesser pace so that Skye could keep up with him.

The Spectre arrived irritatingly slowly and landed on the pod as Osman and Ragab followed by the rest of the SKS and the crew of the Ship, finally followed by the ship's captain. Bodies of the dead were carried out, followed by a an armoured box surrounded by several guards. Osman walked to Morbius.
'Prepare to examine the body and open a conference the second you get the info we need. Also, start the mechanics on modernising this pile of junk.'
'Yes sir, and good luck. You sure you wanna do this?'
'Yeah...' Osman went to where he could find Skye.
------------
Ragab carried Rain's body with him as he went slowly to Riko. As he walked he thought of hundreds of different things, 'would this lead me astray? No, my path is with the light. But who is responsible... Morgul and Xanatos. If they did this to Rain, a strong Jedi, what would they do to a cowering woman and her children in some alley? Gotta stop them. Hope you're with me Rain.'
Ragab stopped as he saw his Master Riko.

OOC: I'm going to have my Jedi character kill off my Sith.
IC: Kor'in entered the city looking for a Jedi to kill, and he just so happened to find one. A weak young Padawan named Roth. He lit his lightsaber and attacked him as he exited the Baron Wolf.
[glow=red,2,300]It's time to die, puny Jedi![/glow]
Swinging his lightsaber towards Roth's midsection, Roth barely had enough time to activate his light saber and deflected the blow. He did a frontflip over Kor'in's head and aimed to stab him through the skull. Kor'in brought up his blade to deflect the attack and use the force to push Roth away.
Roth stood and asked a simple question:
[glow=blue,2,300]Who are you, and what do you want with me?[/glow]
[glow=red,2,300]I am to bring your end, Jedi. Just know that you will die this day.[/glow]
Taking advantage of the moment, Kor'in struck with an impressive flurry of attacks aiming to kill the young Padawan. The two combatants exchanged blows neither being able to land one on his opponent. Roth swung several attacks aiming to decapitate his opponent, but Korin proving to fast for him swung a blow knock Roth over. He stabbed his blade staight down towards the Jedi's chest
Roth rolled out of the way, and into a standing position. He then brought his saber towards his opponents head, but Kor'in blocked the blow. Roth could tell this battle was going to take a long time.
