The Arrival

Chapter 6

The meteor shuttle decent slowly came to a halt just meters above the ground. The world leaders looked on is complete silents. Many of them where nervous about meeting this second group new comers especially in the current state that they have found their selfs in. With a loud hiss the shuttle touched down and the ground around them shook slightly. This new shuttle was heavy more amor and some what heavier weapons. Everything about this shuttler screamed troop transport. 30 meters long and two heavy blaster cannons this was a craft made for war and only war. The shuttle landed with the side of the ship facing the group of humans with it drop bay doors slowly opening. The humans got the first look clan DarkHide of the Mandalorians.

Sharia Morman and her honor guard looked out at the group in front of them, and the only think that she could think of was...weak...the were so very weak. They did not put up much of a fight when the Trade Federation attacked them, and their so called leaders need to be protected for they didn"t look like they could fight for there own lives. She shook her head in disappointment as they made their way over to the captives. She did spot a smaller group of humans who looked younger than the rest. If she could not salvage the older generation then at lest the younger one could be molded in to true Mandalorians. Walking right to the Viceroy Sharia said nothing to him at first. Just handed him a data pad and awaited a response.

Jack was in complete awe as the Mandalorains in their heavy durasteel alloy armor walked out into the night air. Tho the sun had long set Jack could still make out the dark blue color palette of the armor. With the T slit helmet these where tried and true Mandalorains, and yet some how he felt as though something really bad was about to happen turing to Trish and Keith he could tell he was not the only one who felt it as well. As the Mandalorains made their way over to them Jack noticed the droids seem to turn off or something. He gave the one next to him a slight kick and got no response. Pulling at Trish"s sleeve he motioned for all three of them to slowly back up and try to get in front of the shuttle. They had made just behind the droid line when a hand reached up a grabbed Jack by the shoulder. Jack turned to face a blaster pistol pointed at his gut and a Mandalorain shaking their head in a mocking manner. Clearly amused at their poor escape attempt.

" Nice try kid next time though try and blend into the droids and then back out maybe you would have made it to the side of the ship before one of us would have noticed." Stated the Mando in distain. They then pointed at the ground with the pistol." You know what to do sit on the ground and watch the show maybe you might learn a thing or two." The gut curling feel continued to rise in Jack as he turned to face the group of Mandos by the President. he watched as the leader of the Mandos handed Hask a data pad. The Viceroy read over the information then asked " If this was the will of the elders" or something to that affect. Jack could not be sure has he was reading lips from the distance he was from the action.


The leader of the Mandalorain nodded then walked right to the President and asked one thing, " Do You Lead these people?" it was at this moment Jack discover the leader was a girl her voice hand rang out due to her helmets speakers. The President straighten his back and answered " For most of them yes I do." The Mandalorain nodded then step forward squared up with the man swiped the pad on her wrist and a Kal shot out from her gauntlets and very quickly stuck the President in his gut. The man had no idea what was happening until it was too late. The girl in front of him had struck so fast the thought of escape had not crossed his mind. He didn"t even know that he had gotten stabbed until he felt the blood run down the pant leg of his suit. He looked at the girl who stabbed him in confusion as he slowly fell to the ground. He knew he was dying the amount of blood that was flowing he had 20 sec at most. He could help but ask "why" in an almost whisper of a voice. The Mandalorain answered simply, " Your people are Mandalorains now and can only follow Mand"alor I killed you because you are the old order and most died so the new can replace you." The President was unwilling to go after he heard this answer but no matter how unwilling the sprit of the body can no longer sustain you then you still died all the same.

Sharia watched the man died it was the lest she could do after ending his life in such a way, but his death would not be used in vain. His death should show the rest of these would be leaders that she was not to be tariffed with. Turning to the Viceroy she took the data pad from him and stated that the rest of the ships would be arriving with in the next cycle. As the two finished the discussion an honor guard walked up to her with three young humans behind him. " Commander I found three trouble makers trying to sneak off before the show what are your orders." Before Sharia could speak Hask beat her to the punch. " Ah Jack why would you go running off like that you could get hurt out here." Sharia could not help but roll her eyes at his statement but it did interest her that the Viceroy had gone out of his way to learn the name of this human. Understanding that he should explain himself Hask tells the Mandalorain leader his in counter with the young humans before her. He also tried to drop the idea that if they had displeased her the Trade Federation was more than willing to take the three off planet.

Sadly for Hask after hear his tale Sharia has taken an interest in the three and has them carted on to the transport ship along with the body of their former leader. He was to be buried with full honors though he might not have been Mandalorain his death was for the greater good of the Mandalorian people. She also issued orders to the remaining world leaders. They had been tasked with preparing large areas in heavy populated zones of the planet for star ship landing as well as the meeting that would host the native leaders and the clan leaders in the next week or so. Though many of the leaders accepted with out much issue the Chair Man for the Peoples Republic of China had refused. Claiming his people would fight to the death. Though she respected his willingness to fight she did not have time for it so just like the america president she quickly killed the man off. However on like the previous leader who"s death had a purpose. This death was meaning less so he was left to the elements.

After dealing with the world leaders Sharia sent a signal to her ship in orbit and directed them to land on the small island in the bay near the city. She had much to due and not so much time to execute many of her plans however she was sure of at lest one thing. The elders of the clan would turn this place in to New Mandalor, and it will be from here that the true Mandalorains will return to Republic s.p.a.ce and seek revenge for all that had been done to them. Before Sharia"s mind could run wild her dreams where cut short when she received a message from her ship. It involved the Jedi they had on board, they wished to speak...
