Kat Nargal

Smiling a little, kat replied. "Perhaps no more drinking, but cigarettes dont get you drunk. Anyway, you said so much has happened... What have i missed? Half of my worries just left as you walked in, and the other half will once i see zara safe and well. Where is she anyway?"

Striding out of the fresher in his regular business suit, still smoking his cigarette, his face lit up when he saw brina sitting down, although he was a little surprised to find her with her hand over her mouth. Shaking his head, he said "No kiss goodmorning?" and braced himself for the impact.

In the medical section of the casino, nurse Carsen was making her final rounds for the day. Longing for a hot meal and a warm bed after a hard days work, she quickly checked on all the patients, before begining to log out for the day. Half way through signing out, she was startled by a cough from the long term ward, usually for staff only. Most of the patients were either deep asleep, in a coma, or drugged to sleep for the pain. One of them however was standing completely naked beside his bed. That man just happened to be one of the two owners of the casino. Looking over at the nurse, kat raised an eyebrow, before saying "Some clothes, a cigarette and some water would be highly appriciated at the moment." Slightly stunned, the nurse turned, and went about gathering the things he had asked for, then went to notify brina that kat was finally awake. Slipping on the suit the nurse had brought him, he chanced a look at the chronometer on the wall, only to find that he had been out cold for months on end. "No wonder im craving cigarettes..." he murmered to himself under his breath, sparking a nic and taking a good mouthful of the water. Crossing the ward, he moved to the bathroom, and proceeded to take the longest leak of his life.

Kats eyes flickered open. Two things registered in his mind, both of them igniting a flaring headache. Walking over to his mini-bar, kat poured himself a scotch, sparked a cigarette and walked into the refresher, still smoking. A wet cigarette, downed whiskey and a shower later, he was clean, but still brooding. Heading for his office, he sat down, and began to try and correct the hole in his security.

Shaking his head at rahalin, who had just left a dock that had been closed by blast doors somehow, he sent him a comm quickly. "Im afraid the hangars were all closed for a reason... We arent taking off yet, were loosing fett first. Im afraid ill have to comm you when we end up wherever we go." Tapping on his wrist console, kat activates the jamming signals on all frequencies, including staff frequencies, before tapping in a set of co-ordinates, and making a second jump to hyperspace, once again in a random part of deep space. Saving the co-ordinates to another datapad, he quickly erased them from the security computers, before pocketing the datapad. There was no way fett could have followed.

Tapping a few keys, kat ignored the fury around him, instead cutting any access to security systems off by having everything linking the security network and the normal network physically disconnect. Tapping a few keys on his wrist mounted console, he switched it to its highest security mode, meaning that in order for anyone to tap into the systems, they would have to have the physical code mutator algorithm inbuilt into their systems. Hence, unless these theives wanted to spend the next hour or two sitting and cracking his codes whilst massive amounts of security personell were tracking them, kat doubted they would have a chance in hell of changing anything at all security related, including various blast doors and laser grids blocking exits. Standing up, he whistled as he picked up his dual blasters and his ascension gun, checking the power packs and ammo quickly before holstering them and walking out. Sending a narrow band encrypted broadcast over the security channel, he asked all security personell to report the position of crew members as they were encountered, before proceeding to apprehend them. Loading an AI program on his wrist mounted console, he had the computer intercept these reports, and plot a map of their progress. He also started up another AI program inside the main security databank, searching for any vessels associated with these people. He put standing orders that these vessels were to have tracking devices and EMP's welded into them. Sending his sister a comm over the security channel, he asked her to meet him in the panther, and have brina go with sabian in one of the company YT-2400's

((HoT, brina posted scrambling all communications, which would include a tracking beacon signal. Anything going through the staff channel would have been picked up immediately, and a channel change would have been executed. Sorry, but there is no way for anyone else to enter the casino anyway, the doors are all locked. Sorry, but i cant see any point in you posting here)) Shaking his head, kat returned brina's kiss, before turning back to his monitors, and watching the progress of these intruders into his vault.

The security personelle at the front door who were searching fracas frisked him quickly, removing any powerpacks and disarming all weapons found. Unless he was hiding things up his rear end, or in his guts or groin, everything that was an enabled weapon or powerpack was taken. Kat, still sitting in the security room, had just sent someone to investigate why the rather rich senefarian was taking 20 minutes to "take a dump", when a monitor started blinking, and another displayed camera feed of the man, accompanied by one or two others present extremely close to the vault. Shutting off the silent alarm for now, he sent an encypted, narrow beam secure comm out to all security personelle to cover the exits, and have the casino locked down for a hyperspace jump. Punching in a calculated set of co-ordinates to take them to a part of deep space, the casino doors shut down, and when the traffic cleared, he sent out a general broadcast over the PA, but not anywhere near the vault, that a hyperspace jump was about to be made, before starting the hyperspace engines and, a few minutes later, jumping into hyperspace. Downloading the co-ordinates that they were at, he erased any previous log or record of them, before whiping the memory slots they held 10 times over, deleting any possible way of finding the co-ordinates. Keeping all of the doors shut, he asked all security units to check in, and ordered pilots to ships. He also commed brina and zara, asking them to get to a YT-2400 and the black panther respectively. Comming the pirates on board, he asked them to man their ships. All systems bar the security systems, emergency lights, the vault lights, atmospheric maintainance and tractors beams were placed on standby. Although those who were far too close to his vault would have felt a jolt, they wouldnt necessarily be able to tell it was a hyperspace jump, nor would they find any evidence leading them to that conclusion. The people, wether they were there by some mistake or were robbing him, were now trapped within the casino, and unsure of their location, with no planets or landmarks to give them any idea of where they were. A single security team of 10 men were sent to the vault, leaving all exits covered.

Contemplating his sisters earlier words, kat was lost in thought... The man had stolen blueprints of his casino hadnt he. If my memory serves correctly, i remember that last time he came here he was in poor condition... Surely he hasnt managed to somehow gain the amount of money to pay for the finery and the droids he is accompanied with... What was his name... Ganelon. Setting the computers to keep the man on screen at all times if possible, and to mark the last place he was seen if infact he went somewhere the cameras couldnt follow... Fairly soon, a large red dot flashed on the screen over one of the bathroom doors. Ignoring it, he continued to scan the casino from the main security room, noticing a man having been stopped with not only two swords, but weaponary as well... Setting the computers to track him also, he continued his scan, adding various other suspicious individuals to the list of people to be tracked on their own screen.

((Please, do not post my personelles actions regarding these issues fracas. We will not be allowing you to keep your blades, and power sources are scanned for. You are also going to be patted down.)) When the man handed over his weapons, on guard approached the man, saying "It is casino policy to pat down anyone who bears weapons through. I apologise for the inconvinience, but we have to, unless you would prefer to leave." The other guard, on the other hand, removed the power cells, along with any ammunition from the guns, before placing them into a lockable compartment in a rack of lockers. The guard then carefully wrapped a small device each blade, so that if they were opened an alarm would sound, as wires would have to be broken on the device. The second guard was still awaiting permission to pat the man down.

As fracas went through the doors of the casino, he was automatically scanned for weapons, and pulled aside by security. "Excuse me sir, could you please hand over your weapons for a moment. We will not take any weapons unless we cant disable them, but we cannot allow people to enter the casino with weapons." The security personelle, although they hadnt drawn their weapons, did have their hands at their hips, ready to react if necessary.

Noticing the look of concern that spread over brina's face as he walked in, Kat moved over to her and slipped an arm around her waist, giving her a gentle squeeze whilst still paying attention to the other two. Now that he thought about it, he had run off fairly abrubtly to go and attack a mandalorian, and then spent quite a long while scanning his ship to ensure everything was ok.

Still running through his usual proceedures of casino security as he walked, Kat didnt realise he had arrived in the room. He had been walking instinctively, his knowledge of the casino coupled with something else leading him to zara. Stopping and blinking, he looked up to see brina accompanying zara and the jedi. grinning at her, he said "Oh, hello everone. Nice to see you again," turning to the jedi, he continued "And its a pleasure to meet you, although I havent yet caught your name. Im kat."

The VIP was given escort to the tables, A small group of 4 casino personell who remained with him incase he required anything. ________________________________________________________ Kats ship exited out of hyperspace in the space around corellia, moving towards the casino as kat broadcasted his ID codes along a narrow frequency used specifically for casino personelle. Docking, he had his secretary find out where zara and brina were, and also to inform him wether or not ronin had returned. She informed him that zara was currently with a jedi, and that brina was at the casino, but couldnt be found currently. He was also informed that ronin was in an operating theater, and the operation had been completed. Logging into his systems using his wrist terminal, he quickly checked through the security cameras, and browsed through a log of any events within the casino. The only noteworthy event whilst he had been away was ronins return, and the appearance of one Ganelon, a seneferian of some apparent importance. Moving off to find zara, something tickled kats mind about this Ganelon, but he pushed it aside, as the man had simply asked to be guided to the sabbaac tables.

Kats ship travelled through hyperspace.
