As soon as Belbe's battered looking Barloz-class Medium Freighter emerged from hyperspace it shimmered briefly before vanishing thanks to the cloaking device which was concealed within the ship's superstructure. Rising from where she had sat to field strip her weapons, Belbe stripped off her clothing and then walked over to where her old stealth armor from when she had been a member of the Bloody Aces Mercenary Force's Shade Squad was displayed. Removing the underlying bodysuit from the stand, she pulled the skintight cloth on over her naked, pale form before pulling the zipper all the way up until it was against her neck. Next she pulled on the armored boots and gloves, concealing more of her pale, azure skin, before she lifted the breastplate up and sealed it into place. Ignoring the standard, matte black cloak which had come with the suit when she had been given it by the Bloody Aces, she instead selected one which was suitably colored so as to help camoflage her against the rocky temperate world which she was entering the atmosphere of and pulled it on over the matte black armor and bodysuit. She then applied matte black face paint to her face, further concealing the last of her exposed skin, before pulling a black cloth mask up over her mouth and nose and raising the hood of the cloak. Lastly she affixed the small, matching colored pauldrons to her shoulders, threading their fastenings through the provided slits in the cloak before she pulled the stealth generating belt tightly around her waist, binding the cloak against her form somewhat.
With her armor donned, Belbe next contemplated her choice in weapons as her cloaked ship slowly descended through the planet's atmosphere in order to avoid being compromised by the flames of atmospheric entry. While she had a fondness for the heft, firepower, and visceral firing sensation provided by both of her large caliber slugthrowers neither rifle was an optimal choice for her mission and thus she settled on her trusty custom Westar-M5. Lifting the blaster rifle off of its rack without bothering with the underbarrel grenade launcher that she sometimes used with it, she removed the standard Tibanna gas canister from the weapon and instead loaded it with a supply of TibannaX before sliding the tactical sling on and allowing compact blaster rifle to rest against her right hip. She then pulled her custom Westar-34 blaster pistol from the holster on her right thigh and switched its gas canister over to TibannaX as well before removing the Makashi lightsabre hilt from her belt and replacing it with a wicked looking Tehk'la blade which she strapped against the outside of her right boot. A couple spare canisters of TibannaX were slid into the storage pouches on her belt, and then she made her way out of the hidden armor, closing both it and the smuggling compartment securely behind her. Sliding into the pilot's chair, she watched silently as her craft cleared reentry and altered its course so that it was heading towards the main hive cluster of the local Geonosian population.

*An Imobilizer 418 Cruiser drops out of hyperspace above Hypori. The cruiser immediately begins large scans and surveys of the planet and surface. Droids aboard also transmit on tight beam transmitter system to a nearby system at random intervals to update a command ship of the pending progress.*

*Over the next hour, a fleet of ships drop out of hyperspace over Hypori. The ships submit codes to the Hand of Fate in orbit and then move into formation with the Immobilizer as it continues its orbit of the planet above.*
30 Warrior Class Gunships 4 Scythe Class Battlecruisers 2 Ardent Class Frigates 1 Lancer Class Frigate 12 K-Wing Fighters 6 Stealth X's
The 12 K-wings head to the Ardent Class Frigates and follow the landing sequences as they land and refit in the Ardents' hanger bays. The X's head to the Hand of Fate Immobilizer and follow the landing sequences as they land and refit in the Immobilzer's Hanger bay The Tie Defenders stay with the Hand of Fate.

*The Hand of Fate Fleet Began to spread out above Hypori and throughout the sector. Each ship communicating to the Cruiser Flagship of the fleet as the many picket ships and frigates spread out and fired up all scanners. The goal was with the large fleet spread out to quickly and accurately scan the area for deposits and any left over Trade Federation outposts and parts. The Droids on the ships were following the commands left by Makhai.
Aboard the Immobilizer, the data streams began pouring in and droids were in star chart rooms pouring through, mapping, and compiling all of the necessary data. As the data was overlayed and put together, inconsistencies and misinformation from the overlaps were looked into and charted out fully. Precision and accuracy was more important now than speed, but the sheer volume of the ships brought speed too.
The ships progressed in similar patterns for several hours with the droids aboard working seamlessly performing checks and functions as was routine in their processes. Once the data was compiled, a High Energy Beam Transmission was encoded and sent out to a predetermined location in a nearby sector. The droids then began moving supplies and materials to the bays as they awaited further instructions and held a monitoring pattern and posture. *

The Separatist Dreadnought dropped out of hyperspace above Hypori. Immediately, dozens of fighters swarmed out of the hangar followed by twenty transports. Combined with the firepower of the Providence-Class ship, they easily smashed through the blockade, allowing the transports to make a run for the surface.

**The Ships formed up into attack formation and began to advance upon the providence cruiser. The immobilizer fired up its Gravity Well Generators as the fleet split up into several waves, 5 Warrior Gunships in a swept formation lead followed by the Ardent Class Frigates flanking the Lancer Class Frigate. The Three Scythe Battlecruisers pushed out and around to the rear of the Providence. All 30 fighters are launched and move to protect the Scythe battlecruisers. The Immobilizer and 6 more Warrior Gunships move in intercept the front of the Providence cruiser. 3 Gunships break off and move in to follow in behind the scythe battlecruisers and the remaining 16 gunships break into squads of 4 and each take different approach vectors to fully surround the Providence Cruiser. All shields and weapons are fired up on the fleet as it closes in on the cruiser.**
::This is restricted airspace, leave immediately::
**Was the only warning given from the Hand of Fate to the larger Cruiser**

Aboard the ship, Deechi began preparing the men for what was sure to be an interesting fight. “I will come and go as I please. It is you who should leave.” In the gun batteries of the ships, droids loaded proton torpedoes, readied turbolaser batteries, and prepared laser cannons. Support ships surrounded the cruiser, while fighters began forming up into their separate squads. Missile pods were armed, laser cannons were charged, and shields were activated. He then called up Admiral Gulch on Geonosis. “Admiral. We’ve got hostiles above and on Hypori. Would you please send some reinforcements so we continue to have control over Hypori?”

A New Confederacy fleet jumped into the system, resplendent in all its glory. Four Providence Dreadnoughts and Eight Munificent Frigates speeded through space towards the enemy.
Vulture Droids, Tri Fighters and Hyena Bombers began spewing out of the warships, racing towards the enemy and engaging.
Meanwhile, the Confederacy warships began to open fire with their forwards facing guns, and once closed in, began to hammer the enemy forces with broadsides from their side mounted proton Cannons.
Aboard his bridge, Admiral Gulch hailed Deechi.
"You seem to have met some trouble, my friend." [/color]
Meanwhile, landing craft deployed two Droid divisions to the planet surface, protected by squadrons of Vulture Droids until they were through the atmosphere.

**Admiral Rakan looked displeased aboard the bridge of the Hand of Fate. This new fleet would be a problem but nothing his fleet couldn’t handle. **
Signal all ships to go to pattern Epsilon. We still have some time before those ships close on us thanks to the Gravity Well being up.
Roger
::Pattern Epsilon::
**The command was broadcast to all ships as the fleet broke apart even further. The 4 Scythe Battlecruisers moved to engage the much larger frigates head on. They lined up even on an intercept course and began firing off several kilometer wide Conner Nets at the oncoming frigates. Meanwhile all other weapons started focusing fire on the smaller fighters as they began engaging in mass.
The Lancer Frigate and 2 Ardent Frigate moved to track the Scythes and began providing additional cover fire for the Battlecruisers. The trio of Frigates began launching their fighters. 12 Tie Predators and 6 StealthX fighters took flight and moved to protect the sides and flanks from fighter fire.
Meanwhile the Immobilizer moved in between the two fleets and launching the K Wings and Tie Defenders. The fighters flew quickly towards the lone Providence, while the Gunships began their skirmish style fights with the much larger Capitol ship. In Waves of 5 they moved in at varied angles, and started pounding the vessel with the lasers targeting the communication relay and the missile launchers firing cluster missiles in rapid succession at the hanger bay of the vessel.**
:: You have a choice::
**Came Admiral Rakan’s voice over the comm to all ships**
:: These gunships will cut through the Providence reconnaissance and your Frigates are soon to be immobilized. I have more tricks, or we can call for a formal Parley. I know you have many droids that you can sacrifice, but this seems a waste of resources. Aside from fighters, I am only attempting to cripple your capitol ships, not destroy them. If you agree to an armistice for now, recall your fighters and mine shall return. I will call for formal negotiations. The choice is yours…::
**The admiral gazed out from the bridge of the Hand of Fate and waited in anticipation.**
Apprise Lord Makhai of our current situation.
**There was a brief pause, followed by**
Admiral, he is not responding.
**The Admiral gritted his teeth and chewed on his lip for a moment as he stood in anticipation.**
Patch me through to a High Beam transmission to Lord Stormro then.
**The admiral remarked as he quickly turned and stepped towards the command communications room**
You have your orders, carry them out.
**He departed the bridge, as the mounting tension continued.

In the aftermath of the Umbaran invasion and the several month long conflict to push them off of the planet Kumauri Industries began the installation of their new facilities with the blessing of the Archduke. Construction began on a pair of Cardan-V class Space Stations ordered from Kuat Drive Yards, massive military grade defensive emplacements complete with sufficient shipbuilding facilities to produce, repair, and maintain even an Imperial Star Destroyer. Construction progressed quickly, especially once additional manpower was acquired thanks to the local Geonosians, and within two months of the planet's liberation both emplacements were complete. Emblazoned proudly with the emblem of Kumauri Industries and staffed by a combination of Kumauri Industries officials, droids, and native Geonosians, the two stations maintained position within optimal long-range turbolaser range of each-other, allowing each to cover the other in the event of an attack. The first station, named "Prosperity", guarded the airspace over the largest of the old CIS manufacturing and mining facilities, while the second station, named "Peace", protected the new primary hive cluster where the Archduke and his young queen ruled Hypori from. Together the stations stood as the twin guardians of the interests of Kumauri Industries and the local Geonosian hive.

Kora Shesh stood in her luxurious executive office aboard the Cardan-V class Space Station "Prosperity", looking out her window at the busy manufacturing facilities and shipyards that were attached to the defense station. Construction had gone well, keeping within budget and only slightly exceeding the quoted timeline, and Kumauri Industries' Aerospace Division was finally ready to begin production. There were several prototypes already under construction in high-security sections of the yards at their sister station, "Peace", secured under heavy guard, triple-factor authentication, and even a hibridium cloaking device to conceal anything that couldn't be contained within the interior manufacturing facilities, but it would be some time before those projects were ready to enter full production. No, they would need to find other sources of income until the new designs could begin paying for themselves. Of course, that was why she was wearing her finest Kuati outfit and had a luxuriously fitted Lambda-class T4a shuttle awaiting her in her private hanger; it was time to call in a favor from university and, with any luck, using that favor she would be able to secure the rights to manufacture and sell licensed Kuat Drive Yard products in the Outer Rim for Kumauri Industries. Smiling with an almost predatory grin, she walked out of her office and made her way down to the shuttle that was waiting in the hanger below. Minutes later the shuttle left the station and entered Hyperspace, en route to the galactic core.

Kora Shesh stood at the transparasteel window in her office, looking down at the busy shipyards below as droids and local Geonosians worked together to complete an order for a customer. While the sales and maintenance of KDY and SFS products were helping to keep the lights on and the workers paid there was little profit in such sales; no, profit would come once Kumauri Industries rolled out their own product lines, the first of which were in the late stages of development at the other Cardan-V class Space Station. Two different designs were in the final stages of prototyping before entering a first production run, with more concepts and designs in the works to join the soon to launch product lines that the Aerospace Division was developing. Of particular interest was a set of data and schematics that had been sent to her by Lord Stormro himself, based on a discovery he had made in the ruins of Anoth; while not a new design by any means it was one long thought lost to the sands of time and now she had been tasked with helping to bring it into the modern era. Returning to her desk, Kora resumed looking over the data she had been sent on the Cal-class Battleship as she worked to turn the data into a viable product for Kumauri Industries.

Metis DaruKian Ti@dravenheart Berrick Dahnos [RETIRED]All was arranged, preparations were complete, and a small fleet of CR90 Corvettes would enter the space over Hypori. Aboard the ships, the various Cabal troopers, armed with A280 rifles, outdated E11 rifles, and even some utilizing electro melee weapons, kissed their coins. These coins bore the mark of the Jinn Cabal with the motto of their organization emblazoned upon it. Their leader gave these coins as signs of their membership and as a means of good luck. They were gonna need where they were going after all. These corvettes would shudder slightly as two Z-95 Headhunters launched from each of the four vessels. It was a small fleet, but it was enough for what they were going to do. These four ships bore plenty of engineers and soldiers for the operation.
Moments later, a 70b Phantom-class Prototype starfighter exited between the formation, piloted by their leader, Lord Ghaz. As he keyed on the starfighter's cloaking device, the commander of the lead vessel contacted him. The holo-image of the captain appeared as he saluted Ghaz.Sir, we have detected the target in orbit over Hypori. Grid coordinates set it at... Sector G-8.Thank you, Captain.Ghaz would key the communication off, returning to piloting his vessel alongside the four corvettes and their starfighter escorts. As the fleet began to move, four remaining Headhunters would exit hyperspace just behind the fleet, making up the rearguard.

Draven laid back on the supplied bed, simply looking at the ceiling of the chamber as the group of CR90s emerged from hyperspace. Suddenly, everything erupted in commotion as everyone moved about to their stations.It seemed they were already at their destination. Giving a sigh, he pushed to a seat position as he reached inside his shirt.
"Here already, huh? Well, better to get this over with then"
Pulling out a flask, he took a quick swig of the whiskey before replacing it. Slappibg his knees and giving a final sigh, he stood to his feet. He grabbed the belt from the bed that held his blaster pistol as well as the sheath carrying his vibrosword and place them around his waist and back respectively. Once in place, he made his way out into the hall, heading for the boarding ramp.
He couldn't explain what had hapoened or why he was here. He had headed off to hide upon Tatooine and now he was here in this raid. He let the memories play through his head as he worked to figure out just why he agreed to this. Was it promise of payment by the leader? Maybe it was some form of charm from the Twi'lek? Then again, it might have simply been the years of his life drawing him back to his roots? Or perhaps, the simpliest and truest answer was boredom? One could only guess and he didn't wish to dwell on it further.

Following the Z-95, the personal Ginivex-class starfighter of Kian Ti, the Helios as she had nicknamed it, would follow the escort, accompanied by six Rogue-class starfighters herself. Having granted Lord Ghaz permission to decide when to jump in with her 4 Interceptor IV frigates and 2 of the Nebulon-Bs, which were waiting in a nearby system to intercept if it was necessary, the Syndicate leader herself neither wanted to show herself from her bad side. In the end she was like her crew a pirate at heart and given that people don't steal Lucrehulks everyday, she was more than curious to participate on the frontlines closer than usual.
Eventually moving up Kian Ti awaited further orders of how to handle the situation. So far everything was calm... yet she knew that things could change up quite fast in those situations.

Berrick sat at the controls of his X-90B Phantom-class Gunship as it dropped out of hyperspace behind the CR90's. The enigmatic Zeltron nightclub owner activated the ships stealth systems, pulling above the 70B owner by Lord Ghaz. A man whom Berrick had been working to build a partnership with recently in an effort to expand his own operations off world. Something that would be furthered by working with other underworld figures. To that end, he was here to help with the acquisition of something the Cathar Crime Lord wanted.
Berrick gave a quick check of his three lieutenants he had brought with him, as they sat at their gunner controls. While the force he was bringing with him was fairly small in comparison, Berrick would not trade Trinity, Vixen, and Elektra for a whole army. Each of them was highly trained and together they could take out several platoons worth of soldiers. So taking on what ever pirates or rag-tag band of mercenaries were protecting their target would present very little challenge. Berrick hit a control then, causing a check-in signal to be sent to Lord Ghaz to inform the Cathar of his own arrival

Metis was sitting in the co-pilot chair, keeping her eyes on the controls and view port, and ears open for alarms or communications for her. It was easier sitting next to Ghaz when she had a job to do, it kept her mind off the cold and unmoving mask. Right now everything looked normal. The Lucky Star was waiting a system away, in case things went pear shaped and they needed an extra ride quickly. With everything green, Metis did one last check of her personal gear. Her armor was ready, warpaint on point, and her blaster was ready to go. And so she leaned back in her chair and waited patiently (maybe a little too patiently) as the ship was piloted toward their target.

Ghaz finishes the scans of the area, noticing nothing on the scopes. He then keys his comlink to the captains of the main four vessels.
Black Heart, Riskrunner, Kiltik, and Blood Hunter, begin your approach. Riskrunner, take point. Blood Hunter, take rear. Have the first wave of troops embark on the transports and prepare for immediate deployment into the left hangar bag.
Acknowledgements were made by the various captains before Ghaz changed frequencies to a more open channel.
Corvettes are making their approach. To all allies present, keep your eyes peeled and prepare for docking in left hangar.
With all orders given, the half-Cathar takes his hands on the steering and begins to pilot his starfighter along with the small flotilla.
It was certainly a marvel to behold as they drew closer, a Lucrehulk-class Battleship in prime condition. The emblem of the defunct Grand Confederacy could still be seen upon its hull without any signs of deterioration nor battle scars. It was likely sent here to garrison the world of Hypori in its final days. It made Ghaz wonder if there were supplies on this planet that could be scavenged for anything of value, whether it was to supply to Cabal or be sold for profit.
As the approach was made, Ghaz turns to his apprentice, Metis.
Whatever we face on this vessel, if you need to utilize it, draw your lightsaber and call upon the Dark Side. I would rather we preserve our manpower as much as possible. And I believe our allies would appreciate it if we could defend their confederates as well. This shadowport will need manpower and resources to make her worthy to move about the stars after all.
