IRON CURTAINS COST MONEY
ABHEAN, R-7 SECTOR,
OUTER RIM TERRITORIES
THE PLANET ABHEAN IS AN ECONOMIC POWERHOUSE ON THE OUTER RIM. THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT, SEEKING TO ESTABLISH STRONG RELATIONS WITH THE REPUBLIC AND THE BORDER ALLIANCE, HAS INVESTED CONSIDERABLE CAPITAL INTO THE CONSTRUCTION OF SUBSIDIZED SHIPYARDS, WHICH WOULD HELP FURTHER ESTABLISH THEIR ECONOMIC DOMINANCE IN THE SECTOR.
THEIR PLANS, HOWEVER, ARE STALLED BY A RECENT SERIES OF SABOTAGE EVENTS IN SOME OF THEIR FACILITIES. THE ABHEAN GOVERNMENT BELIEVES IT IS AN EXTERNAL FORCE, AND HAS REQUESTED AID FROM THE BORDER ALLIANCE.
ACQUIESCING TO THE REQUEST, THE BORDER ALLIANCE DEPLOYS A SMALL SQUAD OF ELITE COMMANDOS FROM THE DISTINGUISHED DEFIANCE SQUADRON TO INVESTIGATE THE SOURCE OF THE DISTURBANCES, AND REESTABLISH SECURITY ON THE WORLD.
ONBOARD A REPUBLIC SHUTTLE, THREE SOLDIERS OF THE BORDER ALLIANCE AWAIT LANDING ON A SHIPYARD ORBITING THE INDUSTRIAL WORLD; KHALEN TRIANII, A SOLDIER AND FORMER JEDI PADAWAN, RYMANN VIZSLA, A MANDALORIAN JOURNEYMAN PROTECTOR, AND JARON NASIF, A COMMANDO TRAINED IN HUNTING SITH...
Jaron sat in the back of the shuttle, having "carved out" his own little corner of the transport, where he had spread out his gear, and was meticulously going through it to make sure everything was a-ok. He had handpicked each part of his gear for this mission, due to the high risk of encountering Force users, as the Abheans seemed to believe that the Sith were behind the sabotages. Therefor, as a non-Force Sensitive soldier, Jaron who relied on his equipment to even the gap, was heavily dependent on the right tools for the job.
His main armament for the mission was a cortosis-durasteel bodied M60 Sonic Enforcer, modified with the lightsaber resistant body by COBALT to allow for it to be used in close quarters combat against a lightsaber user. He had opted for the sonic weapon instead of a blaster because of the difficulty blocking its effect. In addition to it, he also carried a Z311 sonic pistol, and a Westar 35 blaster pistol. He also carried his cortosis alloy karambit as always, and wore fingerless shockgloves on his hands.
As if this weapon output wasn't enough, in his combat vest, adorned on the front with a shield shaped, golden yellow Border Alliance patch, he carried several canisters of OC pepper spray, Mk 3 firespray, and ABC scrambler grenades, as well as batteries for the sonic weapons. Each pme was a highly effective tool in his hands to be used against Sith. Related to the ABC scramblers, a gas mask was hidden in the vest's pockets as well to protect him from the grenade's distracting effects.
As his eyes looked over the equipment in front of him, his brain was working meticulously, examining the grenades to make sure they were not dented, moving on to the batteries, and then ensuring that the mechanism of each of the sonic and blaster weapons was in perfect working order. After a while, satisfied, he finally put down his combat vest on the floor next to his seat, and allowed himself a moment to light a cigarette. A thin file detailing everything they knew about the sabotages on Abhean was resting on a table nearby, but Jaron had already read through it closely. The soldier was nothing, if not thorough.
"We're approaching the Galactic Republic Shipyards." The co-pilot stuck his head out into the bare cabin of the shuttle to let the three soldiers know. "ETA twenty minutes."
