chapter 25: the kalon….

(Been a minute, anyway enjoy)

(POV third)

Around the dinner table William along with many other can be seen eating with gusto, William glanced over towards one of the figures that came with him to the surface and was very surprised,his entire view of this secret organization was they were human supremacist's but he quickly dismissed that notion.

Looking at the olive skin tone of the woman and her blue eyes, he realized that the woman was a mirialan, he moved his eyes away from her but burned the image of her body into his head, she wore a black colored dress and a cowl(head covering/hood), she had a blue hair covering ,as for the rest of her outfit it was synthetic boots etc..

William noticed that there were even other races people like the Mon Calamari and the quarren, which surprisingly were on good terms by the looks of it, all in all the table was a mixed bag of people.

After drinking some blue milk and finishing the meal, the small talk came to an end, many eyes looked Williams way.

"So did you visit humanity's origin planet, how was it?" Asked the Mon calamari , he looked with interest towards William hoping to gain insights about humanity.

"Well" William looked around and saw that all eyes were focused on him then continued,

" the planet was very beautiful, but i happened to stumble into a military area " William sighed then resumed.

" there was an old man who distracted me while military soilder's surrounded my position, but the old man slipped that I was in a military area, after that I stunned him while running for it, *cough* anyway they had slug throwers as their weapons anyway thankfully I was quick and only got a minor injury" he pointed to the small chunk of skin missing from his ear.( yes that's a graze)

The others nodded, their reactions were very calm, some just nodded, others smiled.

William then proceeded to tell them how he escaped and left the city, not telling them about the strange key that went into his body and that he removed his mask to blend in.

"So yeah that's what happened during my trip to the origin planet" William said .

"Oh how intriguing" the mon calamari said while putting his fist in his open palm together , the others agreed with that statement.

"Did you remove your mask?" The quarren asked knowingly while stroking one of his tendrils.

"Yeah, it was the only way i could escape as there were hundreds of soldiers searching each street and alleyway for a strange man in a mask so" William said with full honesty, the table fell silent then Alexia spoke.

" well that's, strange usually when a human on the origin planet sees a person without the mask we give them, they shoot on site" she looked at William with a confused expression ,the people around the table also looked at William for the answer.

"May I ask?, were the people who went there of another race?" William asked and Alexia nodded, he looked around the table and they all agreed.

" well that answers that question" William said while face palming, the others were smart enough to realize the implications.

" let's have a moment of silence for the dead, and possibly alive people " William said with some negativity, the entire table of 30 people fell silent they understood what William meant.

The whole group unconsciously moved to the living room and chatted doing some small talk while trying to forget about the prior conversation, William chatted with the group and met all the people.

After the others left William went to his bedroom, sitting on the bed he scrolled through his inventory while thinking of what type of secret society they might be..

[ Nu-class attack shuttle blueprints, Aggressive ReConnaissance-170 starfighter blueprints, confederacy of independence systems blueprint archives ,Acclamator-class transgalactic military assault ship blueprints,Katarn-class commando armor blueprint….]

William glanced at the blueprints he has amassed before scrolling down to the unit's section.

[ Raxus guard x20, kaylon primary , kaylon secondary, kaylon tertiary, Q-series droideka x2,…..]

After a glance ,he widened his eyes and began contemplating while stroking his chin.

'The kaylon?, hmm interesting ,but i should not spawn them for now, i already have a few butterflies flapping around like commander thorn so it's best not to push it, ' William thought while he viewed the weaponry in his inventory.,

——

In a bustling undercity of coruscant….

Commander Thorn can be seen pushing through the streets with a cloak over his head..

He glanced around from time to time while his hand hovered over his blaster pistol, after entering a alleyway he stopped and sat down.

"This is the republic?" He murmured with some disbelief, he had spent the past few months looking around the republic searching for something to disprove the claims of that man, but he only found the corruption of the republic, he knew that the republic was not all bad, the few friends he met along his journey told him that much.

Deep down thorn knew that what that man said was true, the republic will fall apart with or without the war, sighing thorn took out a communicator and hesitated but ultimately he pressed it..

——

"Well, well, well , if it isn't commander thorn" William said with a smile as the hologram communicator he held showed commander thorn's figure wrapped around a cloak.

" tsk, you were right about the republic" thorn said with some annoyance in his voice.

" oh i see, do you need my help?" William asked.

" yeah, give me one hundred thousand credits" thorn replied.

" okay anything else?" William spoke with anticipation.

" *sigh* , can you give me a job?" Thorn said with an exasperated expression on his face.

"Okay I'll help you, welcome to the gemstone underground" William said, thorn chuckled

"What's the gemstone underground?" He said almost laughing at the strange name.

"Well it is the name I chose for the group I aim to create, the mission is quite simple really, to prepare for the war to come , enough talking over the comm's I shall send a few protocol droids to your location they will be your soldiers for now" William said.

" damn Clankers" thorn mumbled then said, "very well, but remember your promise" thorn said then cut the communication.

"Yeah, i remember" William said outloud, he had contacted commander thorn during his trip to the star forge and made a promise, shaking his head William sent a communication to the star forge and went to take a nap.

——

In the depths of space a massive superstructure laid silently, It's massive form bigger than a moon, it hovers silently like a guardian above a unknown planet.

Deep inside the structure tens of thousands of mechanical footsteps can be heard.

*death korps of kreig like march*

With a perfect synchronized sound thousands of droids line up, from simple mining droids to protocol droids, standing by and awaiting orders.

With a beeping sound a mechanical voice spread out across the station.

" alert all commands, information has been received, operation havoc is initiated, i repeat alert all commands…" the mechanical alarm sounded out a few times before going silent.

All across the massive super structure, droids of all kinds can be seen moving around in all directions in all due haste…

Several thousands of vulture droids and hyena bombers can be seen taking off, their red color scheme a contrast to the gray dura steel color of the massive station they call home, they spread out as they left their hangers patrolling the area with extreme intensity..
