The S.O.S Plan

Kirian was sitting on her bed on the Fury, brushing her hair which had gotten much longer than she had thought as the ends were near her tummy. As she brushed, her eyes were closed and she was quietly thinking to herself about how wonderful and hard their new life would be with the baby's birth so near. She was imagining actually being a housewife, cooking dinner for their family as Everic came home. She saw him kiss her imaginary versions cheek, both of them smiling as what might be their future children setting the dining room table for dinner. A boy and a girl around the age of 10 and 14. She couldn't sense any force powers, the version of herself wasn't wearing lightsabers constantly.. and Everic's version of himself wasn't strapped to the teeth with rifles and blades.

 She smiled to herself, opening her eyes slowly as reality began to sink in or rather the noise of her holocom had interrupted her heartwarming daydream. "Lumnesh?" she said as she saw the urgent S.O.S. "Santana.." she said as she pushed herself off the bed, quickly beginning to suit up. What frighted her most was the location of the S.O.S. It was the industrial sector, close to where Ra'Haus used to do business. Kirian couldn't help but wonder if the old man had finally caught up to the last of their little bloodpact family. "I won't let you get away with this Joaquin.. you bastard. Keeli and Santana think I don't know what your wife was about to do.. but I do know, and I know what you did to Keeli.. you won't get your hands on Lumnesh too!" Kirian said as she slide her sabers in each holster at her sides.

For some reason she had felt more powerful, almost as if the baby was lending her a little. She would always have to place her hand on her belly to calm the child, as she didn't want it to give itself away by blurting force at random times. "It's alright little one, we will be alright... you just go to sleep and soon we will be with Daddy." Kirian always pulled her hair into a ponytail when she knew she might have to move quickly, she was surprised to have it still hanging so long even pulled away from her face. She pulled the hood up then walked to the intercom to see who was on board.

 "Yes master, the others have gone out for a drink and show tonight. They all thought you would be staying at Master Martin's for the night. Shall I call them back for you?" asked the protocol droid UV as he followed Kirian to the bridge. "No, that won't be necessary. I do know how to dock the ship at least, we're already in Nar Shaddaa Orbit." she said as she sat down in the captains chair, operating the ship to dock. There was a loud scraping noise as the ship came to a halt just barely docking correctly. Kirian blinked a few times, looking around, glad as no one saw how awful she drives being that she never had lessons in her life. She had no time to sit around crying over denting and scratching up the ship she got for free, her sister was in danger. Kirian made her way off of the Fury, walking down the airlock towards the Nar Shaddaa Elevator when she had a eerie feeling she was being watched.

Both her hands were resting on the hilts of her sabers as she walked slowly, her thick robes hid her swollen tummy rather well and her movement was limber as usual, due to her small stature but despite some of these being in her favor, her ultimate worry was for the child she carried with her into all these battles. She couldn't leave her sister to die though, as she knew Santana would do the same. The airlock was dark which was unusual, and it was no sooner than she thought it was unusual, that Lord Kimber dropped down from the rafters above, planning to aerial attack Kirian while Lord Arliss and Lord Amir, who had been hiding on the sides of the catwalk, lept up and attacked from the left and the right. Kirian was able to repel Kimber's aerial assault by using the force to knock her back but Kimber quickly flipped in mid air and landed on her feet as Arliss and Amir moved in close.

Kirian's heart was pumping fast now, she pulled both sabers and used them to block both Arliss and Amir just before taking a jump back. Holding her sabers up in front of her, she looked at the three of them. "Who are you!? What do you want!?" Kirian said angrily as she figured they may have her sister since it seems like she was expected.

Kimber was the first to step forward, she, like the others was a pureblood with expensive face jewelry, it was clear she wasn't very skilled else she wouldn't have attacked first and alone. "You're the traitor, we're here to find out, so tell us what you've done so we can go get paid already. I haven't the time to deal with fake Sith Lords." Kirian narrowed her eyes at the woman as she spoke, then glanced at Arliss and Amir as the criss-crossed, slowly moving closer towards Kirian as she slowly kept backing away from them. It was apparent she was trying to avoid a fight, but they did not know why. They only saw it as a opportunity to try to catch her off guard as Arliss and Amir force lunged towards Kirian. Kirian knew she wouldn't have enough force to both protect the child, wield  correctly, and protect herself, she focused half her force as a cloak of pain around the unborn child.

The fight was fierce but Kirian had been dual wielding since she was a tiny little scrapper, running behind Keeli and Santana. The two on one battle was intense but Kirian could handle it pretty easy but she knew if Kimber jumped in, her pregnancy would make it more difficult to take the three of them on at once without Everic there to have her back. Arliss began to worry as he couldn't land a hit on the small girl and the resistance only made Amir angrier as he began attacking more savagely, sparks and hums from all the lightsabers echoed through the airlock as the three of them fought. Kirian could sense their feelings but she was more concentrated on keeping her own thoughts clear and focused.

"She nothing more than some poor human slave girl, recruited into Korriban to be fodder. You mean to tell me you two idiots can't handle the little twit?" Kimber asked as she crossed her arms over rolling her eyes boredly. She pointed at Kirian, force choking her and creating a opening for Amir to attempt to use the Bavo Six syringe. Kirian struggled in the air, her feet dangling but Kimber wasn't strong enough to hold her up for very long so Amir pulled the syringe out and went to stab Kirian in the stomach with it since it was at the level Kimber held her at. Kirian's eyes were wide with fear as she saw what was about to happen, there was no time to react with her sabers, it would be too late, her only choice was to use the force to repel his arm away since she was weakened from the force choke. She dropped her left saber and held her hand up to repel his arm but since she was barely conscious, her force was weak but she managed to protect her tummy as the syringe flew from his hand only to be recovered by Arliss who then stabbed her in the back with it.

She then took the syringe and from her back without hesitation, wanting to remove it before it could deposit the entire dose into her system more than it already had. She jammed the syringe into Arliss's eye socket without a moments thought. He was wailing as Kirian force pushed him over the side rail towards the firepit below. She didn't even wait to hear him hit the bottom before she lunged for Amir who tried to repel her back as they fought fiercely. There was only two of them now but she was sweating as she had to use much of the force she was using to protect herself to localizes whatever was injected into her to remain at the entry sight but she couldn't hold it long while fighting and the moment she did, she would be effected by whatever was injected into her. She had to win before then or it would be over. Kimber had already went into stealth once she saw Arliss being stabbed she began to whisper little things from random corners of the airlock, trying to mess with Kirian as she battled Amir.

"Lonely little slave girl, trying to live in a world of True Sith. Who do you think you are? Did you really expect to become a Sith Lord when you aren't even a pureblood? Sure we have aliens and other random species who can use a tiny bit of the force, but those are just the fools we employ for spares. It looks like your use has run out.. speaking of which I heard you are a manstealer.." the voice echoed around Kirian as she fought against Amir. Dealing with him was getting difficult even though she was able to remove the syringe before she could be given the dose, a few droplets had made it into her blood stream and she was beginning to feel vulnerable. Her breathing was ragged as she fought on, unable to fixate on where the voice was coming from, she had to focus on the problem at hand. Amir.

"Well I think she had a plan of her own.. but it blew up in her face" Amir said with a smirk, jabbing his saber in her direction now as if trying to tease her. He could tell she was getting worn out. "Not to mention, the little wretched wrench seems to be pregnant.." he said as he looked down at her belly, jabbing the saber at her again, this time towards her stomach. Kirian was caught off guard, she had only thought of the child for a split moment when it was in danger but she knew it was all it took. Kimber took this opportunity to let herself be seen again as she swung her saber down towards Kirian's back. "He doesn't want her, the child is just a experiment, we'll take the baby and toss her corpse right behind Lord Arliss!" Kimber said as she was inches away from impaling Kirian in the back.

Kirian was no fool, she knew they would surround her and she also knew that neither of them would take a risk being close to the edge of the catwalk again. The words Kimber said sealed her fate as she Kirian closed her eyes and let out a force-scream like no other. Amir was sent flying 40 feet back until he hit the ground, both his ears bleeding. Kirian held her saber at precisely the right spot to block Kimbers attempted backstab. She turned slowly, her teeth clenched together as she looked at Kimber. The simple thought that someone might experiment on her and Everic's child boiled her blood beyond any anger she had ever felt in her life. She merely lifted her hand palm up, fingers spread apart  as she stared deathly at Kimber in her eyes. She could hear ever desperate cry going through Kimber's mind as she thought about trying to make a deal in exchange for information about who was after her. "Fuck your deal." Kirian said as she closed her fist and watched as Kimber began to scream at the top of her lungs, her face and skull being crushed under the weight of Kirian's force. Kirian was almost growling animalisticly as she continued crushing Kimber's skull until she was dead and no longer made a peep.

Regaining consciousness, Amir was trying to crawl away after witnessing the brutal murder of his partner but Kirian was too pissed to let there be any survivors, especially after they had called her relationship a lie and threatened the life of their unborn child. The drugs were beginning to take hold but the paranoia couldn't set in because she wasn't thinking clearly anyway. Another loud scream was heard in the airlock as Kirian walked slowly towards Amir, dragging both sabers across the catwalk as she went, she was tired but she wanted the last one dead. "Don't run now.. I don't feel like chasing you but you're going to die.. " she said slowly as she continued walking, step by step, inch by inch.  "You're a monster!!" Amir said as he turned his back to her and began trying to crawl again. "You think I am.. Fodder? You think my child is a experiment?" She said in a rather monotone voice as she was a foot away from him now, looking down at him as he crawled away.

Kirian took both of her sabers and stabbed them simultaneously into the backs of Amirs legs, driving the sabers down deep to keep him from crawling. Amir screamed and groveled for mercy but there was no appeasing Kirian now. She took Amir's saber from the ground then looked down at him once more, cocking her head. "I already know who sent you.. fuck your deal too." She said before quickly removing his head and tossing his saber to the ground. She retrieved her own dual sabers and began heading back to the ship, her energy completely drained from the experience. Though she wasn't completely dosed, the Bavo Six was doing it's job, Kirian ordered her ship to be swept for bugs down to a cellular level. She refused to return to her own ship until the repairs and sweeps had been thoroughly done five times.

By now, after all that had went on, Kirian figured out it was a trap set up for her, probably having something to do with Angul. She knew Santana was likely safe but couldn't check in on it as she was more concerned with getting to Everic's Phantom since his ship had more state of the art medical equipment to make sure the baby was alright. Once she was aboard, she had Everic's protocol droid scan the baby vitals and check a sample of her amniotic fluid for contamination. She had luckily gotten the syringe out of her back before it had dosed her enough to get to the baby. The antidote would get rid of the Bavo Six remnants after a few days, maybe less with such a small amount in her.

Kirian sat alone on the Phantom in Everic's sleeping quarters. She had removed all of her armor and was only dressed in a mid-thigh length white nightgown that had spaghetti thing shoulder straps. Her body was sore and she had a few scraps and bruises but she had thought it might have been worse so she was thankful for just those tiny injuries and the jaded drained feeling she had. All was  silent with nothing but her own thoughts as some of the paranoia began to seep in. She knew Everic was out on a secret mission but he hadn't checked in with her, she was worried something had happened to him with all the chaos going on.. but what if that is what they want her to think, what if this was really all just a big ruse and she was the center idiot? Everic was very well skilled at captivating a woman's heart, Kirian remembered the first time she had saw him flirt with other women but it was certainly different from how he approached her. She also had remembered the first time he confessed being in love with her.

"It was real.. I felt it from him.. he couldn't lie about something like that.." she said to herself outloud. But he could.. Kirian knew just how excellent Everic was at his job, it was fair to say that was good enough to lie about feelings too, but she felt his love through the force, surely he couldn't fake that as well. She placed her hands on her cheeks as she sat in the middle of the bed staring down at it. She also knew Everic was probably well trained enough to fool force users as well. "That Karmic woman is always after him... well him and everyone else with a penis. She probably thinks she already has her clutchs on him. She doesn't realize he's only doing it to get information.. the pus-filled ridgey faced fool. I'll rip those fucking soggy ass honeybuns right off of her head if she thinks she's getting my man.." she mumbled to herself, unable to push the thoughts from her mind as she thought about Karmic stealing Everic away from her. "That idiot called me a manstealer.. what the fuck? I've only ever slept with, and fell in love with one man... and as far as I know he is supposed to be single. What if he's married or something..? What am I thinking?!" she thought to herself, gritting her teeth to try to hold herself together.

It made her heart sink in her chest as her eyes began to water up as she laid her back onto the bed, curling up on her side, facing his side of the bed. She pulled his pillow close, since it had his scent on it and she would bury her face in it and breath in for the comfort of feeling like he was there with her. If it was all true, calling him would expose him and perhaps put the baby in danger. Kirian slapped herself just as the thought crossed her mind. "It's Bavo Six.. it's Bavo Six.." she said over and over to herself, refusing to let any tears fall as it would feel as if she was betraying her trust in Everic if she let a petty drug distort her trust in him. Everic's intentions weren't the only thing Bavo Six stirred up. Every since the day Pax had told Kirian what Taelios had did to him, she knew she couldn't get to friendly with Karmic but lately things have been rather off. Connecting the fact that Pax and Taelios should be enemies, yet Pax lets top secret information such as his marriage to Eirwynn be known by both Karmic -and- Taelios, she felt as if something might be wrong with that scenario. "Pax is probably already flipped and Eirwynn too... they're all out to get Everic and me..." yet the Bavo Six would push her paranoia to its limits.. "That is if Everic isn't also in on it."

"I can't take thinking these things about him.. I love him so much, I think I'd die of a broken heart if it was true.. " Kirian knew she would need to go to sleep while the Bavo Six got out of her system. The longer she stayed awake, the more stress she endured, the more stress would be on the baby.  Resting her face against his pillow, she looked down at her tummy, spotting the tiny little hand poking out just a bit from the side as the baby seemed to have rolled around a bit in a effort to get comfortable again after it's mother's roller coast ride fighting style. The moment she placed her delicate hand on her tummy, her fears were lifted for the time being. She closed her eyes and began to pass out from exhaustion, sleeping deeply as she recuperated.
