Eek, they both sound so epic, I quite like the sound of the 2nd one... would be a good one to go for in terms of catching their group unawares, I was considering Bracknell having something along the lines of (a much weaker) Battle meditation ability learned from Renso as a sort of "endgame" reason for him to be able to beat Roan so it might tie in to that, that he could have predicted they'd try to rescue the captive Force users and set up the trap to find Zinuthra's location (And with Renso helping them through the bond or whatever, Ari and Bol would still be able to beat and kill Bracknell later because Renso would be waaaaayyy better at it XD)?

Otherwise I'd say just go with it when you're writing and see whichever one your post takes us towards and we can work with it! :)

Aahh I know, there's something terribly exciting about planning something out and then actually managing to get to playing it out:D I can say this is still one of my favourite RPs so far and its been a blast to world build from the bottom up and see where it ends up going :P

Thankfully, they managed to escape any further interrogation before they made it back to their room, Aria spinning around to face Yerbol as he shut the door and inquired something about her feelings on their friendship and where she felt it was going. "I'm really sorry, Bol. I don't know what I was thinking. Actually, scratch that, I WASN'T thinking and I shouldn't have done that. This is the last thing we need right now." she huffed in frustration, pulling her fingers through her already tangled hair as she tried to process a response to convey her confused feelings on the matter. "I don't mean that I don't feel what you're feeling too, I just mean that I've never...FELT like this before and I don't know what it...means." she finished, concluding with a sigh, her tone somewhat quieter as she nodded in agreement. "I'm not going to ask you to pretend it didn't happen, because I don't want that either; but I think we need to be thinking of other things first and sort...whatever this is, out later once we're not trying to stop a Galactic war. And till then you are still my best friend."

They couldn't have arrived back at a better time, for at that moment their comm units chirped again and Neta's slightly strained voice explained the situation to them as it had come through in the latest info update. Once again, they were working on a tight schedule.

____________________

The holo projector in the middle of the room flickered with a large image of a transporter ship, the appointed members of the 'prison break' task force gathered around it as Neta and Elara filled them in on their latest up to date information from their lookouts.
"So, Transport left the space station several hours before we thought. Not only that, but it's moving quicker too." Havok's commander sounded just as perplexed as they would feel to hear the news. "They'll be within range in the next ten minutes or so, we haven't got much time to brief you but we'll give you the important details so you're not going in blind."
Neta took over momentarily, hitting a button on the remote clasped in her hand. A red beacon flashed up on the far left hand side of the lower deck. "Far as we can tell its a converted slave transport. Prisoners are kept in Force-suppressant restraints in this brig area here. Our Intel reckons there's about five of them, extraction could be tricky but if we catch them by surprise we could still pull it off."
"And if they already know?" Aria frowned warily. "Why else would they be moving faster?"
"They could be using illegal hyperdrive modifications." Cheriss pointed out. "A precautionary measure in case Bracknell IS getting paranoid about our activities. We have been making ourselves a thorn in his side lately."

"We've got some pretty decent cloaking devices on the shuttles set aside for you, should get you in close enough to let you board the transport. Then all you have to do is slip through the emergency airlock. Security fields are controlled by a terminal in the opposite room, as long as you can get those down you should have an easy job of getting the Force users out. Then you just have to get back to the shuttles and get out of there before they can send any fighters in as backup." Elara continued. "I'd say it's tricky but you guys have pulled off far riskier stunts in the past so all I'm saying is...go do your thing, and good luck."

It totally is, and I'm not gonna lie I picture most of the rest of the characters all in a line with that kind of expression and then Roan in the background like:


Pahaha xD

You never see it coming[Freedomliveson/The Elvenqueen]

Bless him, well when they decide it's gotta come out, it's the right time for it to happen I suppose :P Ari kind of decided she was going to do a bit of her own thing there too, she actually wanted to do something else and I had to reign her in a little and compromise. *bonks Ari on the head* Bad. Very bad. xD

Poor things just can't catch a break, can they? pahaha

"Oh, ouch, let's not do that again, huh?" Aria winced, placing a hand over her ribs which were throbbing far too much to NOT be pre-empting an impressive set of bruises that would no doubt show themselves the next morning. Cover story. Right, like Neta (ESPECIALLY Neta, in fact) or anybody else would believe any kind of cover up they came up with. Though anything would sound better than 'well, we fell out of a tree', she had to admit. Her thoughts on what they would say to disperse any doubts were interrupted as Yerbol pointed out that there was something on her cheek though before she could reach up to wipe it off herself, he had stepped closer and done it for her.
"Thanks." She mumbled, exhaling a shaky breath of her own as she seemed to contemplate their close proximity while he turned to look back towards the base and mumbled something about them going back. She couldn't help but feel a stab of disappointment that they would have to return to strategising and fighting a war again already. There was just something so perfect about the fuzzy bundle of nerves that sprang to life every time he smiled at her that she had been struggling to comprehend, to find words to express the feeling, for some time.
"Bol, wait I-" He turned back towards her at precisely that moment and began speaking again, stumbling over his words and repeating himself.
She knew she should have stepped backwards, distanced herself a bit, Roan's words drilled into her skull over repeated training sessions: attachments are a weakness. Attachments are a weakness. And yet her feet were rooted to the spot, and though the mantra pounded in her ears it was as if she and gone entirely deaf to its meaning.

Aria couldn't be sure what he was trying to say, and maybe she should have asked. But with the threat of another stressful and potentially dangerous sting operation looming over their heads she panicked and reacted on an impulse, stretching up on her toes to press a delicate kiss to his cheek. Just like that, the contact seemed to jolt some sense back into her and Aria jumped backwards. Should NOT have done that. Oops. Her voice cracked slightly as she responded.
"You're really important to me, too. I...I don't know what I'd do if anything ever happened to you."
Morbidly embarrassed by her lapse in judgement, she quickly ducked past him and began to step back towards the compound before she could do anything else even more reckless (she'd be lying if she said she hadn't considered it), trying to save what remained of the conversation by returning to the topic of their 'cover story.
"Anyone asks, we ran into a pack of those Riika cats and we had to duck through a thicket or something to lose them." She suggested, a reasonably plausible explanation. The golden spotted cats they had encountered in the foreat on their first trip into Zinuthra's wilderness were rather gutsy and they seemed to be drawn to the outskirts of the rwbellion's encampment. In fact, they had become such a nuisance for breaking into their food stores (it seemed the jerky was delicious not just to everybody on base but everything OUTSIDE of it as well!) that Neta and Elara had set up sentries to keep watch for any on the prowl while Roan was too preoccupied with training sessions or combing through history archives to chase them off. Flash grenades or warning shots worked well enough as a substitute in this case.

Alas, they would not escape notice as they skirted the outermost areas of the settlement, although they would escape too rigorous a questioning from most of the soldiers who simply mumbled a quick greeting before returning to their morning drills. They would not, however, escape Vano's eagle-eyed awareness as she ambushed them from her "cat spotting" perch as they passed beneath it.
"Do I even WANT to know what you two have been up to?" She queried with a raised brow. Aria retorted in her usual manner and provided the previously decided excuse, which Vano apparently didn't quite believe. "Riika cats, sure." She grinned, peering over the top of Aria's head at Yerbol before she dropped her voice to whisper to the younger girl: "When are you two going to stop being so evasive and just ADMIT it already?"
Aria spat another curse under her breath for the resurgence of reddish colour that overtook her face again, punching the Mirialan in the ribs.
"Shut.UP, Vano! I don't know WHAT you're talking about."
Vano's grin only broadened. "Aw, you think noone else has noticed? That's cute, Aria. Really cute. But this is getting painful to watch."

A scowl creasing her brow, Aria dodged past Vano with the intention of making a break for their quarters to avoid any further interrogation.
"C'mon, Bol. Just ignore her, she doesn't know what she's talking about."

Awww Bol! :') I was so not expecting that yet, bless him! I can't wait to see how this ends up going from here, I love it when characters decide to do their own thing like this haha

Figured it was extremely unlikely that they wouldn't run into somebody on their way back in, feel free to throw Neta into the mix too if it seems appropriate XD
