Samantha brought the Twilight out of hyperspace. Getting to Tatooine did not take very long, they lucked out and was able to slip by some systems which were aligned favorable. She looked at Akira who once again had joined her in the cockpit. "Well, we arrived. From my data their are four Hutt crime lords on this planet currently. I say we pay one a visit, if he does not have a people, he would know which one does. You should go start getting suited up and get your weapons together. I am sure this is going to get messy." She said. Hutt Crime Lords did not work together will, and no doubt one would love to turn the other in to a bunch of heavily armed people looking to free their friends. If it was the one that had them, he would just try to kill them on the spot.
Samantha slowly brought the Twilight down just outside of one of the Palaces of the Hutts. It was locked several miles from Anchorhead and was home to Killbo the Hutt. Once they were landed, Samantha headed down to the cargo hold to put on her armor as well. She once again also had the same weapons as she did when she put her armor on at Utapua.

Well, lets get looking.
Akira patted Sam on the shoulder and left the cockpit, heading down into the cargo hold to don her armor ahead of time. It would be a long time before she could get in and out of it in a couple of minutes, or less time, but the force did help her. By the time they landed, she was fully suited up, and had all her weapons ready. The last thing she put on before they left the ship was her helmet, where she opened a channel with Samantha.
You can do the talking while I feel around the palace with the force, and keep track of the thoughts of everyone. The last thing we need is someone to pull a gun and have a firefight break out. [/sub] |

Samantha nodded. "Okay, if that is what you want. I don't think we will get our brothers without a firefight however, but it is always good to be optimistic." Samantha said lightheartedly as she tented her visor and opened the ships loading ramp. Samantha walked out and turned around watching Akira walk down. Once she was down Samantha activated her ship menu on in her HUB and locked down Twilight.
Once the ship was secure, Samantha started to walk across the desert towards the Hutt’s Palace. The pace she set was will within Akira’s own suits normal operating parameters; but it did allow them to cover the desert in nearly a third of the time it would take them should they just be wearing conventional armor.
Once they arrived at the Hutt’s Palace Samantha walked up to the door and pounded on it with her left fist. A small eye popped out and looked at the two armor clad humanoids. “Why do you come to the Palace of Killbo. The most powerful man on Tatooine.” It announced showing the arrogance of the Hutt. It spoke in Huttese, but Samantha knew enough to understand.
She cleared her throat and spoke calmly. “We are searching for the Hutt that attacked and captured four Mandalorians. We request an audience with his greatness in order to learn the whereabouts of our people. The information may be worth quite a bit.” Samantha said and she was not lying. The information would most likely lead the destruction of one of his enemies; one of the most valuable things in a world ruled by criminal enterprises. The door slowly open and Samantha turned to Akira. “Will, at least we know they are not here. They are letting use in without a fight.” She said with a smile hidden under her visor.

Akira fallowed Sam, easily keeping up with her. This suit felt more comfortable and easy to use each time she put it on. She smiled under her tinted visor and touched the blaster pistol on her right thigh, just to make sure that it was there.
It took them hardly any time at all before they came to the doors of the palace, only to find that she didn't comprehend any of what was being said by the robot eye. Thinking quickly, she accessed the holonet through her suit, and downloaded huttsees translating softwhere to her suits memory, just so she could keep up with what was being said. It was fully downloaded when the door's opened.
There may be no fight right now, but it could be a trap. I'm keeping my eyes and senses wide open. [/sub] |

OOC: You pick wither they are this Palace or the other one.
Samantha looked at Akira, “This Hutt would need to be pretty stupid to try something against two people as heavily armed as us.” Samantha said only a partly jokingly. She knew it was a possible ambush, but it was not like they could not stop them very easily. They were walking tanks after all; but she did not let her guard down just because she wearing such protective armor.
The open door and headed into the palace. Right way two Gamorrean with vibro-axes, two Weequay carrying and Nikto who simple had a blaster pistol on his hip. “I am Jiabal. I speak to Killbo the Hutt. The Hutt you looking for is Juago the Hutt. I think you should be leaving.” He said in basic.
Samantha nodded, “Okay, thank you’re your masters reward is that Juago the Hutt will no longer be operating on this planet. But if that name is wrong, your master will suffer that fate.” Samantha said. She turned around and walked out to the palace.
Once outside she flipped on her radio. “Akira, did your force powers tell you if he was lying or tell the truth.” Samantha did not think he was lying, but it was worth checking. She would have expected to see some Trandoshan guards seeing as they are the ones that captured her Mandalorian Brothers. She figured if he was lying it was better to mount a surprise assault with them thinking they were running off to attack another Hutt’s palace. She continued to walk away from the palace, putting on the act.

I felt no Trandoshans here, and they did indeed speak the truth, but there were also humans inside, but they didn't give out any cry for help through the force, so they shouldn't be our boys. Lets try the other palace.
Akira replaced her rifle back on her back as they left the palace. She pulled it out on instint when the guards showed up, and carried it out, just so she could get the feel for the weapon. Akira put a hand on Sam's shoulder, so she could guide Akira while she looked over the palace again with the force. Their best bet would be to go to the other hutt and look for Clan Skirata, because they weren't here. [/sub] |

Samantha lead Akira back to the Twilight and aboard the ship. The palace was located on the other side of the planet. Samantha headed up straight to the cockpit and took off. It would be a short trip by air and Samantha knew that time was a factor.
The trip took only a few minutes by air, and they landed a few klicks south of the palace. Once again Samantha and Akira head by foot to the palace grounds. This time however Samantha stopped at a hill overlooking the palace. Using her zoom function of her visor she looked over the palace. After a few seconds she smiled. “How nice of the Hutt. He left a ship which could take all of use back to Mandalore just outside.” She said as she looked at the Warbird-class Republic Cruiser landed on the back pad. The cruiser was painted completely black, but the words “End of All Hope” was painted in crimson on the on the bow.
Samantha had heard about a ship like that before but could not for the life of her remember anything about it. She pushed it out of her mind. “Okay, I say we first sneak onto the Warbird and secure it for our escape. Then we bust into the palace, shot our way to the cells and release our brothers and sisters. We then fight back up to the Warbird and leave this place. Your thoughts?” Samantha did not say it, but before leaving destroying the Hutt’s Palace, for attacking her brethren. She waited to hear what Akira would say.

Akira remined quiet as she fallowed Sam to the Twilight and remained near the hatch as they went around the planet. She still didn't speak until Sam told Akira her plans. It could work, but it was too time consuming.
I was thinking something else. I secure that Warbird, and prep it for flight while you rescue our brothers and sisters. By the time that is done, I would be done, and has provide support from the air, because I dont think anyone would mess with that thing, and we would have a better chance at getting out.
Akira set up her sniper attachment, and looked down at the palace. There were a couple easy targets that she could get right now, but she waited. [/sub] |

Samantha looked at Akira and smiled. "Okay, I don't think you could handle the operation of a capital ship all by yourself but you are full of nice surprises. Good luck on hacking the ships security lockouts and watch your ass; sense I won't be their to do it." Samantha said with a smile and slapped the back of Akira's helmet. She then activated he repulsive pack and rockets pack, taking to the sky. As she took off she also disengaged her shield and activated her cloak.
Samantha flew up about seven hundred feet of the ground and looked over the Palace. Using only her repulsive pack, she moved towards the palace roof silently. She landed and looked around. There was not a single guard to her surprise. She assumed they must not expect they only faced ground assaults from the other Hutts' mercenaries. She quietly open the access hatch and dropped into the palace.
The top floor of the fairly unguarded. There was one guard stationed at the end of the hall. She slowly walked over to him as quiet as possible. Once she was in ranged she leap forward and swing her right armed she simple crushed the skull and spin of the human standing guard. She flipped on her radio. “Akira, I am in.” Samantha said before killing the radio seeing that it could be tracked. She slowly continued forward as quietly as possible, knowing it only be so long before the alarmed was sounded and she would need to kick it into overdrive.

Akira, as soon as Sam left, started to get busy. She opened up a link with a ship hidden out in space, her own Spyglass-class corvette Intrepid. Yumi would never stay away from Akira for too long, so it was easy to find that little droid in the force, as well as her crew members, and establish a comm link with them.
Yumi, I need codes and your hacking to get me access to a Warbird-class cruiser to break out of here. Can you do that?
Not a problem. Get inside, and the rest I can talk to you, and your little jedi powers should make things simpler.
Alright. Stand by with that. [/i] Akira started to snipe people. Clearing the way for Sam, and taking out those people around the Warbird.When it was clear, she sprinted to where it was located, taking out a few more guards before they knew it, and before she started to take fire. She smiled as she manipulated the force, throwing off their aim, and bringing them out into the open with some force pushes. This was turning out to be relatively easy. Yumi, start hacking. I'm right by the cruiser.[/i][/center][/sub] |

Samantha was still cloak as she walked up to the holding cells section of the palace their were two Trandoshan guards standing on either side of the door. She took several steps back and extended her hand. The with one pull of the trigger the massive ACP array mounted to her right hand fired it into the chest of the one on the right and with her left arm she drove her fist into the second trandoshan's chest, crushing its heart.
As she did the alarms started to go off; but not from the firing, but because several of the guards had failed to report in. Samantha knew before long she and Akira would be hit by Trandoshans, Weequa, Gamorrean, and other body guard of the Hutt. Samantha does did not waste any time. She dropped her cloak and with one swift kick smashed the door down. She walked in an looked at the prisoners of the Hutt. Their were several mandalorians and a few others. The Mandalorians stepped up an looked at the armor clad person. "Ya'ti, you were one of them that was captured? I would have never thought that." Samantha said looking at the Mandalorian. She then realized that her visor was tented. She detented her visor and looked at the elder Mandalorian.
Ya'ti Skirata looked into the visor and his jaw nearly dropped. "Sam? Little Samantha? Is that you?" He said looking at her. "Why are you here?" He said said after realize the the little girl he knew so long ago had grown into quiet the woman.
Samantha looked at them. "Of course it is me Commander. Mandalore sent me and one other to search for you on behalf of the Mandalorians. Lets get your personal affects and then get landing pad. The partner I was assign is procuring our ride." Samantha said. As she spoke several guards running to the door with her sensors. Her visor tented and as she turned around she fired her flamethrower into the door, ingiting them. All others can come with use if they want, but you come at your own risk." Samantha said. She stepped out into the hull and open fire with her DC-17m keeping the guards focus on her as the Mandalorians and other prisoners headed down the hull towards the armory so they could could get their armor.

A dark shape could be seen decending from the sky as Akira used the force to open the doors on the ship. It was simple enough to flip a switch and send the voltage though the circut to open the doors. As soon as she was in, she closed the doors and headed up to the bridge.
Overhead, the dark shape turned out to be Akira's spyglass corvette, Intrepid. It launched a dragoon shuttle and a older model T-65 X-wing starfighter, both of which began to hover over the Warbird, firing at any unlucky ground guards. Intrepid hovered over the palace, weapons ready to fire, but they didn't.
Akira mowed down two guards before she came to the cockpit, which she began to run around in and with the help of the force, bring the ship up to power. The dragoon outside, dropped low enough to the ground to drop off Yumi, in her standard human look, a newly repaired N-K Battle Droid, and a Yuuzhan Vong Hunter One Combat Droid. Yumi rushed inside the Warbird and began to help out Akira, while the last two droids helped the air force to fend of the guards.
In the bridge, Akira opened up radio contact with Sam.
We have air cover and some help on the ground, but I would suggest you hurry nontheless. [/i][/center][/sub] |

Samantha walked backwards as she fired down the hall, using her own armor as a shield for the escaping prisoners. The few blaster rounds that the guards got lucky shots with just simple bounced off the ray shield. She used her built in right hand blaster to fire on the targets after her DC-17m clip had run out, but with this weapon her accuracy increased and she killed two Trandoshan guards using ACP rifles.
The group finally made it to the armory. Just as they suppected, the Mandalorian armor and weapons were being stored in the weapon lockers. The Mandalorian equiped themselves and the other prisoners armed themselves with blasters and vibroblades. It was at this time that Samantha got word from Akira. "Thanks for that little update, we are moving as fast as we can however." Samantha said as she fired her ACP array gun down the hall several times killing more guard.
Once everyone was ready Samantha looked at them. Head towards the Landing Pad. I will keep their forces occupied." She said as the leg storage open and she pulled out the small silver rod which everyone associated with a lightsaber.
Ya'ti Skirata looked at Samantha in amazement. Last time he had seen her she was only eleven years old and was still scared to be alone on a ship. "You heard the women. Get your asses moving or I will place my boot up it." He said as the group of mandalorians and prisoners made their way out of the armory behind Samantha. But when Samantha turned right at the end of the hall, they turned left.
Samantha ran down the hall and activated her light whip, slice two humans in halve. She was heading towards the Hutt, knowing that he would send most of his forces to protect himself. She pushed herself down the hall, cutting enemies apart and shooting holes in them with her ACP. It was a bloodbath. Most of the guards she ran into were no challenge to her armors firepower and training.
The Mandalorians met some resistance on the way out of the palace, but it appeared that the majority of the forces were outside trying to take back the Romulu or protecting the Hutt from Samantha. They shot their way through the palace, moving tactically down the halls. When they reached the exterior they ambushed the attacking guards from the backside using repeating blasters and grenades to clear them out. The ran on board the Romulus and made their way to the bridge to find a women and another power armored Mandalorian.
Samantha meanwhile arrived outside the Hutt's chamber and kicked the door down. "Killbo. You fucked up by taking Mandalorians hostage." She said as she walked into the room. It was full of bounty hunters, however sense Mandalore recalled most of the Mandalorians to Mandalore there was a noticeable abstance of Mandalorians.
The Hutt laugh, "They do not do the job I paid them for, they needed to be made an example of." He said. "But we can come to some sort of arrangement no, a trade." The Hutt said.
Samantha looked at the Hutt from behind her tented visor. "I don't trade for things one cannot own." Samantha said was she fired the flamethrower. The room was engulfed in fire and all the bounty hunters along with the Hutt screamed as the were ignited and continued to burn. Samantha took off and launched herself through the window behind the burning Hutt. Pumping an ACP round into its head as she flew by for good measure.
Samantha used the flight system on her armor and landed just in front of the Romulus and walked aboard. As she did she finally realized what the ship was. This was a bonus that not even Mandalore could match. She ran up to the bridge and looked at the Mandalorians that had taken up positions at different stations. "Okay Akira, lets get the hell out of here." Samantha said as she noticed that no one had even taken the Captain's seat. She sat down in it and looked at the Mandalorians at work.

Every guard that rushed out any entrance to try to capture the Warbird were quickly mowed down by the fighter, shuttle, or one of the droids. Akira and Yumi had most of the systems up and running by the time the mandalorians and civvies arrived. Akira ordered them to take up consoles, and then everything that needed to be done was finished by the time Sam showed up.
By then, Akira was at the helm and was lifting off, pulling into position next to Intrepid. Akira's shuttle and fighter were back on board of the Spyglass corvette and soon, they were off, heading into orbit. A holopanel was turned on by a civilian, showing news about Nar Shaddaa.
Seems like there was trouble at Nar Shaddaa, and it seems like our forces are there. Should we head there or head back to Mandalore? [/sub] |

Samantha looked at Akira as she suggested they head to Nar Shaddaa. "No, this ship is normally crewed by two hundred and fifty men. With only twenty three people on board it would simple be suicide. Lets just head back to Mandalore." Samantha said as she looked over the Mandalorians on the bridge. She could get use to a capital ship of her own, however she would need to figure out a way to pay for its operation, supply and maintenance. It was a daughtning challenge, but she think she could pull it off. As the ship headed out of orbit, Samantha used her slave unit in her armor along with the Romulus' communication to bring up the Twilight and dock it in the hanger bay just before teh the ship cleared the gravity will of the planet. Once it was aboard the ship jumped to hyperspace heading for Mandalore.
