Zalis Krales

Zalis watched from a tactical screen on The Marie as those who were far better suited at combat, had their feet on the ground and making large scale attacks in locations all over the forest covered planet. She watched them very carefully and then sought out something that was far better for the teams to collect. She sent a quick page comlink message to all of the agents on the surface of the planet. "Agents, Okikuti, Chenachochan and Ittummi. Those are high value target cities. They all have resources that would make this occupation and take over worth it long term. Please make those a top priority targets. Zalis Out." Zalis then turned towards a screen to help move other funds to clear room for items taken in from Kashyyyk.

Zalis made a few adjustments on a datapad to move and secure some funds to help pay for the massive amount of mercs that she and Delta had just hired. It would cost her a lot, but luckily, she still had some resources that could help fund this very mission at the least. Upon making all the needed transfers, she put the data pad away in a back pocket and secured it to her belt holster. She was now wearing black pants and boots, along with a black tank top and special wrist gauntlets on either wrists. One held an assortment of small detailed things that she would always need, and the other was more of a tactical display. Her red hair was braided and ready for whatever may come of this mission, if she was even needed. She normally wouldn't engage in any sort of combat stuff unless it gave her a chance to get unclose and personal, but she was ready to help move Black Sun in the direction it needed to go. Armed with her two blasters in their holster, she moved towards the bridge and gave Delta a head nod as she moved herself through the main part of the bridge. "I do believe this is only our second slaughter together. You ready to blow stuff up and take pets? Dinner can be on me this time around."

Zalis couldn't help but grin from ear to ear as the Mandalorian seemed excited enough to sink her metaphorical teeth into anyone that she told her to. Although, even if it wasn't metaphorical, Zalis didn't care. She began to climb down from the table when her comm buzzed with a message from her favorite Vigo, Delta. Her grin only grew bigger upon hearing the details of his message. Tossing her glass to the nearest wall, she let it shatter as she spoke again. "The time to hire has gone from soon to now! Five million credits for each person who signs up to carry out their first mission for Black Sun!"

Zalis threw back her drink of whiskey followed by a wild grin of playfulness that any born killer would pick up on that she intended to stir the pot. She turned towards the Mandalorian who openly asked a question. She stood up from her position in the booth, and took to standing on the booth and decided that her response would address her, along with everyone else in the cantina. "We claimed this dust ball to annoy Jedi with course and irritating sand. Plus, having access to many cantinas is always a bonus. It's why I drink. But to answer your other question, of course we are hiring." Her eyes stayed playful as they turned to look at a Trandoshan who asked about credits and bloodshed, two things that she knew were favorites of her and Delta. With a grin, she continued to address the growing crowd. "If you are willing to fight, bleed, and take orders without question, I have need for you. If you have a lust for battles, I have a need for you. If you have a craving for the vice in life, I have a need for you. Black Sun has many enemies that thought we could be wiped out by an air assault. But they sit in their own corner of the galaxy, believing the lies that they tell themselves. Lies like they have peace with others. Lies like they are protected by fleets. Black Sun isn't in the business of spreading lies. We work and sweat throughout the galaxy. We know the pain of what this galaxy is really going through. We plan to force others to see that pain, by turning it loose on them." She then leaned down and picked up another glass full of whiskey and held it high in the air. "If that is something you can get behind... Lets drink and work our details."

Zalis left the main hall after the deal had finished. She made her way over to a cantina to enjoy more whiskey, Coreillan rum, and other strong drinks to help her deal with the misery of the hot sandy planet that was always a haven for smugglers and dealers of the vice of life. As she walked in, she made sure her presence was well known by shouting at the top of her lungs. "HAPPY BLACK SUN TAKE OVER DAY!!! DRINKS ARE ON THE HOUSE!" As soon as the crowd cheered, she walked closer to the bartender and whispered to him. "Save the better stuff for my agents. They deserve the best." She then placed a credit card down to pay for the drinks and moved to a corner of the cantina to go over her next move, review funds, and to drink heavily without judgement from others. Life was always better while drinking.

Zalis landed upon the sands of dessert that looked coarse and irritating. Rather annoying like a whinny kid she had read about. Real boring stuff for her. Stepping off her ship, Nimbus, she moved towards the main Hutt cartel area to strike up a deal. This time around, she wore something that was sure to warm up the Hutts to anything she may have to say. As she walked in to the main area, she dropped her coat to draw attention to herself, while at the same time, she picked up a drink full of whiskey or something much stronger than that and began to drink it as she approached three Hutts sitting along the back wall of a grand hall that they had at a remote site on the planet’s surface. She continued to walk into the center as she finished the drink. Her two droids followed her, but they carried with them each a box looking thing. "Mighty Hutts... what a sad sight to see. The galaxy has been breaking around you. The Galactic Alliance and the Imperial Remnant are making things so much harder for you guys to get the good things in life, life Spice, slaves, and all things that attract business for you. But you should have no fear, I come bearing an offering to make life so much easier for you. I present for you, seven pounds of death sticks and seven pounds of the best spice... All for the price allowing me and my associates the freedom to claim this planet. I of course will allow for you to remain, in order to help set up smuggling again throughout the entire outer rim..." Zalis remained in the main hall dealing and negotiating a margin that would please everyone for over three hours. More than enough time to distract them from the hostile takeover taking place on the planet, but also to help gain their support. ((Invasion Assist Shot))

Zalis almost felt a sense of relief upon hearing Delta's voice come through on the comm. She was glad that he was alive and well, which also meant that the assets she had been acquiring was well worth it. Taking a client acknowledgement, she moved her ship to land in bay 4892 as she was told. Before she left her ship, she made sure they also got dressed up formally for a dinner party of sorts. She wore a black dress of sorts, where the majority of the middle was mesh, but it also had some white trim along the outer seams. She did keep her boots on, which also carried with them her vibrodaggers that she always had on her for safe keeping. She didn't feel a need to bring her blasters along with her, as she was being escorted by four KX-series security droids that had been programed with protocol 18 and protocol 21. Upon spotting Delta eating with someone she did not know, she addressed only him. "Your armor seems to be getting more slick. You still trying to send pics to random females across the galaxy?..."

Zalis sat in the cockpit of Nimbus and watched as the star line broke into what most would consider to be normal. From her view, the planet before her looked calm and ready for the sultry and vice she was eager to bring. Quickly, she opened a comm channel and hailed whoever may be listening. "This is Zalis Krales, ready to bring forth credits galore, along with some favorable company..."

Zalis kept her eyes focused on a list that was running before her on a screen at her desk. It wasn't very well hidden, as she cared little for who actually read or saw what she was looking at. She was deeply engrossed in the details of it enough that she never heard her assistant walk in and stand next to her. It was only after a few seconds when she heard his voice ask a question that she seemed startled by him. "Czerka, Banking Clan, Incom-FreiTek, HyperTech, and HealthiDrive Ma'am?..." "Yes... They are companies that I am going to acquire. They have... strings that I need. Is the station ready?" "Yes Ma'am. All the the exact specifications that you requested..." "You pause because no one took the bite. No shame in saying in. The galaxy is not as stupid as they used to be. This new game is the only way to gain true power. You may go and prepare the droids to carry out directive 69. After that, prepare my ship. We have a few... shopping errands that need to get accomplished." Zalis was quick to dismiss him. As soon as he left, she prepared her list, which her assistant, Akor'ketez only saw about the top five companies that she wished to acquire. If she was to become truly powerful, she would need to become so tied into the galaxy that no one would ever be able to move against her. Once she downloaded the entire list, she grabbed her black coat and threw it over her white shirt and grey pants. She arrived at her ship, where Akor'ketez was waiting, and then the two and four of her personalized droids left the station, which had now become converted into the most secure bank the galaxy would ever see...

The camera showed a black logo on white marble wall, slowly zooming out to show Zalis Krales. Her red hair and blue eyes became a focal point for their contrast against the backdrop she was sitting at. Her clothing, which was a black and white dress seemed to blend into the background. Her smile was bright with red lips covered in her own personal lipstick. Her eyes had a cunning playful look to them. Her voice was sultry and disarming. "Ladies and gentlemen of the galaxy, I present to you as the leader of Black Sun an opportunity so rare, I shouldn't do it. I'm going to open up this brand new facility which has been hidden for decades, and make it public to everyone! This is your chance to come and play in a small game to earn the rights to everything Black Sun has! That's right, a chance at our fortune, facilities, ships, plans, and even myself. The winner of my game get's to collect everything we own! But like all good opportunities, this one also comes with a catch. The catch is this. The station will appear at these grid coordinates for exactly twenty minutes before jumping away. Until that time comes, and right after it, defenses will be up and strong enough to destroy a small fleet. But it's a small catch it order to win the fortune of Black Sun. So mark your calendars, in exactly two weeks time, you get your chance to board and win! Bring your best gambling skills and win big!" Zalis blew a kiss at the screen, which then turned to black. The location of the holorecording was untraceable, and gave nothing away of where she was at or where she could be found.

((A Double Post that will turn into a triple post later.)) Zalis sat at her desk and made her calculated plans set, moving pieces that she need in order to begin to have some fun. The station was now fully a week into the renovations that Zalis had ordered, and things were moving at the rate she expected. She with some minor discourse, she setup her holorecording that she would make that would air on the Holonet. After a few attempts, she sent it in. Once she had finished, she began to move around the station to supervise the improvements being made.

Zalis awoke on one of the final stations and assets that belonged to Black Sun. She felt a sting of pain within her temples as the bright lights of the medbay shined brighter then what she would have liked. She rolled to her side and stood up, not being dressed at all, she began to walk out of the medbay she was in. The droid objected, but his words and warning were lost as she picked up a blaster that was set aside for her and fired a shot off into the droid. Leaving the room, she spotted a crew member walking down the hall, and he clearly spotted her and got awkward with seeing his boss completely undressed. "You there! I want you supervisor in my office in ten minutes! There can be no delays, move now!" She walked past him and began to move towards her office, which was located about three floors up. As she walked into her office about nine minutes later, she quickly found undergarments to put on over her legs and a pair of black pants. She just pulled out a white shirt when the supervisor of the crew walked in, caught sight of her eyes, then her chest and immediately looked down. She ignored him and continued to get dressed as she spoke. "I have new modifications that this station needs to have installed within two weeks time. I won't accept any form of failure. Two weeks. I'm sending details down to your dataport now. Go, get everyone working on this now."

Zalis kept her eyes looking over the may ways in and out of the spot Delta had picked for their stance. Most of the men were working to protect and lay the ground work for what would be needed in the event of a large scale entrance. She took a moment to observe the many different Bothan's running and fleeing from the danger, except those who were grabbed for extra cover and support by Black Sun. She just happened to overhear Delta's response to the Galactic Alliance and she almost immediately blurted out upon him finishing. "Delta! Naboo? Really-that swamp hole that creates Gungans? Are you taking Death Sticks?" Out of nothing more then pure frustration, she took her E-11 and shot a random Bothan trying to get out of the mall area that they had now taken over. As he rolled and died near a store, it so happened to be a store that she had some interest in, an alcohol store. She walked in, dragging her hostage with her, and began to raid the expensive stuff, which to her own surprise, they had a single bottle of Whyren's Reserve. She opened it up and walked back out. She quickly re-hit the hostage to make sure they were out, then took her helmet off and took a giant swig of it.

Zalis had a smile grow on her face, although hidden by the helmet of the stormtrooper she was wearing. Delta made it seem like there was about to be fireworks to the extreme, as she for one was glad that there would be. Although, it was a shame to her end that they still had the cover of the Imperial Remnant, as she would rather Black Sun take full glory for these events. But she also knew the value of framing. And with that, they had to go down swinging. Jumping onto the sled with Delta, shooting as she went, she was now prepared for the stand that they would make. Delta had strapped the children to him as a cover shield, which was smart for a bargaining chip. It was also smart as it would cause the GA to think twice before shooting at him, as killing him condemned the children to die. Liking the idea, but not having anymore kids to spare, she quickly stopped shooting so that she could grab a city official on their way towards a highly populated area. She leaned off the sled and found her target and yanked on the shirt of a Bothan as hard as she could so that he would be brought on the sled with her. As she got it on the sled, she used one of her E11's to slam something hard into he side of the creatures head. Once she knocked it out, she looked at the ID badge and saw that it was another female Bothan who worked for Parks and Recreation. Feeling slightly upset at the low level, she still tied her up and planned to use her as cover as she grumbled. "Why do I always get the low level idiots..."

Zalis had timed everything down to the last second. The entry was rather awkward, but it was sufficient for what was needed. The daycare had only a few entrances and exits, and all of which were heavily guarded due to the heavy traffic of city officials that dropped their children off. It was a smart move, and by her standards, seemed rather child's play if she wanted a forced entry. But she wanted in and out quickly without being noticed, and it had to be efficient enough to have children in tow. Jumping up into a side tree, she made quick use of her acrobatic skills and swung herself into a single vent duck that held no wirings or tappings. Her slide allowed of her to fit, just barely though. She had to stop herself for a second to make sure that agents Paulsen and Greckoino knew where they needed to be and with what. They were after all on a time crunch to do this side job. Once she was sure they understood and were on the move, she wiggled herself to an opening and bust down the vent covering into a room. The room, which she scanned as quickly as she could, held seven children, two staff from the looks of them, and three cameras. Quickly, she pulled out her weapons and began firing away. She quickly went with the blaster in her left hand for one of the staff working while the other in her right hand went for the prime camera which would collect her frame. Making her trigger finger happy, she shot fast to remove a clear shot of the stormtrooper being a woman. Once the sparks flew from the first camera and the muffled sound of the Bothan staff member dropping to the ground in pain, it became a free range practice for her skills. One by one, she made her shots count, bringing some mayhem and havoc to the small childcare center. After only a minute passed by, all cameras were destroyed along with the staff. Most of the children ran to the other side of the room, as she landed right in the doorway, which blocked an escape from them. Turning around to greet them, she was met by a female Bothan standing with a blaster aimed right at her. The alien's body was shaking with terror and tried to sound very intimidating. "Don't move. I'm a high ranking official with the city. My death will result in your own death, and I have no fear of pulling the trigger..." Zalis tilted her head just lightly to the left to show some confusion. In the Bothan's poor judgement, hesitated and lowered the blaster just slightly. It was then that Zalis used her background as an assassin to slightly lift one of her own blasters and pull the trigger as she moved towards the right. The blaster fire caught the female Bothan in the upper right arm and she fell to the ground. Zalis quickly ran up to her and pulled out a vibro dagger and held it to her neck. "You're also a witness. I don't DO witness..." With that, Zalis slit her throat and let her bleed out. Standing up, she made a comm to the two agents to stand by near the south window of the childcare center. After sending the text off, she leaned down again and pulled the Bothan's badge off her dead body and glared at it. "Public Water Works is not a high ranking official, dumb shutta." Zalis then quickly got the children on the move and threw them out a window that she opened and into the arms of the two agents waiting for her. Once she cleared the room, she set an EMP mine to go off exactly in a minute. She then jumped out the window herself and had the hoover sled rush to Delta's location, which she was now sure they were late. As the hoover sled pulled up to the shield generator, she found Delta finishing up a slaughter of his own. Jumping off the sled, she walked up to him. "I see you started the party without me. It's alright though, I had some fun of my own. Here, have this," Zalis tossed Delta the ID badge of the female Bothan. "The dumb fierfek shutta claimed to a be 'high ranking official'"

Zalis kept quiet as she walked with the crew. There was something about being in armor that made her feel uncomfortable, especially since the armor was not fitting on her chest as well as her normal clothing. And the Imperials didn't really like their troopers to speak unless that had reason to, and she held no reason to... until she saw something that attracted her eye to it like any girl with diamonds or a cat with a random moving light. It was a play center, or a daycare of sorts that a high official of the Bothan government was walking out of. With a smirk hiding behind the helmet, she spoke to one of the agents walking with her. "I think I found something better for us to do then to poison the water system... Follow me..." Zalis quickly turned and made a few staggered pattern to keep attention off her. It was a bit difficult as she was texting Delta a special message. It was a simple one that was sure to get her point across. After she sent the message, she made a quick scan of the building by walking around it in such a way that no one would be giving her a side eye or be wondering what she was doing. She did so until she was sure of her plan of attack and escape, as she never did anything without an escape plan, and almost certainly never did anything without a backup plan as well. Bbothawui was about to get interesting and fun.

Zalis got herself dressed in the armor provided by Delta, but she wasn't shy about getting dressed in front of people. When your prior work was assassin, being naked infant of others doesn't bother one very much. The chest piece was a bit tight, but she simply used tape to strap her chest down enough to fit. As she finished, she looked at Delta with his talking about Jedi. She couldn't tell if he was monologging or just simply asking a redundant question. After he finished and asked everyone else a random question, she decided to answer the question that she could. "I have once talked a Jedi into climbing into bed with me... It was fun. Secrets were revealed..." She kept her own thoughts past that quiet. Delta had mentioned the very Jedi she had gotten into bed with. But the once Jedi at the time was an undercover CoreSec agent trying to track down the Phantom Drug which had plagued the underworlds of the galaxy a few years back. She had uncovered who he was during their time together, but she kept it a secret from both Kitt Fitt and everyone else that she knew who he was. Truth be told, she was hoping that someone would bring Kitt to her alive with the Bounty, as she had found herself crushing on the man. Although, she also had other reasons for claiming the bounties. She looked down with her helmet over her face, which would have revealed a suddenly soft and thoughtful girl.

Zalis grew her smile from ear to ear as Delta finished elaborating on his plan. The plan was brilliant and downright worthy of recognition by someone who would read all about it. And as Delta said, the Bothers would end up blaming the Imperial Remnant, which would put pressure on the Galactic Alliance to step in, which would mean Jedi involvement. A single stone throw, or in this case, a holocaust of sorts to set the ball rolling. It would also setup Black Sun to control resources that they already posses to gain more credits and power through leverage. The plan was perfect, except one thing. "Delta, while you wear Katarn-class armor... Not everyone else does. Do we have extra imperial insignias just laying around somewhere to help us get recognized with them? Their history doesn't really favor hiring outsiders to do their jobs. Sublight trails may not be enough."

Zalis gave a playful smile as she looked around and admired the technology on the Lady Fair. The planet grew large and overtook the viewport as she admired much of what Delta had managed to take and keep through his years of service. Pulling her black leather cape/coat over her shoulders to conceal some of her other weapons, she made sure to check her assets on her ship. The droids that she had reprogrammed were now in a defensive position to guard the accounts of Black Sun. In the long run, she felt it was better to keep them with he ship as opposed to bringing them into the fray. Granted, only two were with her own ship. The other eleven were back on Dark Sun Station guarding everything that was owned by Black Sun. Walking up to Delta now, she pulled out her main blaster and checked to make sure it was loaded and ready to kill. "So, I'm going to assume you have a plan? You strike me as someone who always has a plan despite having someone in charge over you." Zalis was calm and sincere in her question. She didn't mind that he would. It should how much of a leader he was, and how much she would be able to depend upon him down the road. She herself had a plan, but was more then willing to let Delta take charge on this one. Besides, he was the one bringing in a much larger armament then what she had anticipated for toppling Bothawui. Which ultimately meant he knew what he was doing and how to do it right. Her own leadership skills knew better then to turn down the plans of someone who was this prepared.

Zalis walked into the hanger, looking like a mix of battle ready and whoring ready. It suited her well to have both appearance at the ready whenever she needed them. While she knew how well like Smash was, she was not him. She was Zalis Krales, the new leader of Black Sun. She would lead them as best she could, and as closely to the heart of how she felt. As she walked, she gave the crew a quick smile. "So, who's ready to try new food? I've always heard Bothan's taste better fried, but those are only rumors from a crazy old man who used to run things."

Zalis kept her keen eyes open for any sight of Delta, along with an open ear on the comm to catch the words she wanted to hear. For some odd reason, she felt a bit more worried about the Vigo then she wanted. Had it been any other Black Sun operative, she may have left planet side by now. But Delta... she lingered around for. She quickly reasoned within her own mind that it was due to his well known status in the galaxy and connections he had. She almost jumped out of her pilot's chair when the comm finally did burst with life. Her mind slowed for only a second in relief to hear Delta's voice. She quickly responded back. "Delta, it's not a good idea to leave a woman waiting. Luckily for you, I'm in the mood for a new fur coat. I'll be docked in less then a minute." Zalis quickly turned the Supremacy towards the docking port that was being opened for her. As her ship docked, Zalis shut down the engines of her own ship and made sure she was ready for the trip. She was already dressed in her black pants with a white shirt with her holsters already for weapons and a black trench coat. She sent a quick comm to Delta to let him know she was on board and he could leave the system whenever it pleased him.

Zalis felt the thrill of excitement as she continued to follow through on the targets that Delta requested for her to hit. She had no idea why, but she knew that such a destruction committed was one that would draw attention, and not from those that Black Sun really wanted or needed on their backs. Back so as it was, she was already here and launching attacks onto the poor villages, letting fire still spray. After she hit another target and watched things burn, she took notice of comm traffic and other ships a few clicks off to the Supremacy's right. It took her only a single moment to decide what she wanted to do next. She would hit the main water supply for the main land of the remaining villages. Taking control over the thrusters, she turned around in a fast barrel roll and made the final shot into the water. It was a base of lake that had three rivers that carried it out throughout the forest land. The fire wouldn't burn the water, but it would poison it enough to cause long term damage to those who drank from it. It was the max damage she could cause for the moment. Turning the ship around, Zalis tried to get a ping on Delta and where he would be at. She sent a fast comm to him as she scanned for his life sign on her own scanners. "Delta, are you ready to leave this backwater world and go spend credits in a more fashionable way? I know a casino..." She had hoped that he would respond soon. She was already beyond done with the planet. It felt like she had been on it for a month. It would be good to open Corellian whiskey and buy something that would bring a profit back their way. If anything else, she had research she was still working on for weapons that would be promising in warding off Force users.

Zalis allowed for herself to smile as she pressed her lips together that made the smile seem all too wicked. Warming up the weapons on the Supremacy, Zalis quickly acknowledged her own response that she would happily make a few flybys to helps burn the planet to the ground. At the helm, she pushed her ship towards the nearest target that she was given. She made sure that her four prototype torpedoes were loaded in the added launchers on either side of the cargo holds she had outfitted them with. As she approached the first target, she began to become overwhelmed with eagerness to see what sort of damage they could do. Finding the center of the village, she launched two torpedoes, which were two different types. They were designed to strike at different times in order to have the most impact. As the first torpedo struck the village ground, it explored in what appeared to be mushroom cloud that overtook the village almost instantly. The gas, as it was, was highly flammable, and carried a few toxins within them, that when exposed to it, would slowly over a week decay the flesh into nothing. It was a precaution in case anyone would escape the effects of the second proton torpedo, which acted as an accelerant to the gas, igniting it into instantaneous flames. It also carried with it shards of shrapnel, which would be carried by the blast and cause extreme bleed and rip through parts of the body. The results of the first blast, complete annihilation of the village. Zero survivors, zero vegetation left alive, ground completely charred beyond repair. As Zalis looked with both her eyes and the scanner reading the results of her prototype torpedoes, she smiled even wider. The village and the surrounding area put o hundred yards were left without anything to be looked at besides for burning ground and remains of bodies well on their way to bones or less. She immediately transmitted the results to Delta followed by a comm of her own. "Delta, I can replicate those results at least twice more. Do you have any high profile targets you wish to test these babies on?"

Zalis sat in the pilot'c chair from the Supremacy as the planet of Dathomir grew before her eyes. She was extremely grateful that Delta was in such a position to aid her in her quests for conquests, destructions, and utter glorious power and love of vice. It was after all, the things that drew her into Black Sun, the things that Smash was all about, ad the things she wanted to continue as her time leading. Without making a bold rush in, Zalis sent a comm to Delta, letting him know that she was in the system and ready for fun and games.

Zalis allowed for a smile to flash on her face as she received Delta's response. At least there was one other who would enjoy the thrills of fun and chaos as she does. She had hoped that more in Black Sun would, but it was starting to look like only a select few felt the same way she did. So for now, she quickly loaded up her ship with all sorts of fuel and other explosive materials that the Dark Station had laying around that was supposed to be used for the construction. If it needed it down the road, she would spend her backup credits on it from her personal account. Making waves was a far better use of resources for Black Sun right now. Once the Supremacy was ready, she was off towards Dathomir.
