| (See here to those invited to the party Here)
[Eluthan, Acherin] [The Black Hand Building]
Official communication would circulate throughout the Empire that Acherin's own Draken Tu'Rot would of been appointed Governor-General of the Red Twins System. Invites would of been sent out to those that Draken had considered to be friends, or wanted to be friends with. In his underground suite, which laid to rest underneath the Black Hand Building, it was here that he would hold his party in his honor. This was his chance to gloat, however as he looked in the mirror prepping his uniform, Xane would talk. "Governor-General... seems like a good stepping stone, Draken..." Putting on his coat, Draken would agree. "The deeper we can get our hand in the cookie jar, the more access we will have." Turning away from the mirror, Xane would speak again. "True, however we must tread with caution now. The Emperor is no fool, and our enemies will soon learn quick enough that they are next." Draken would only laugh. "Come now Xane... enjoy the party." With that said, Draken Tu'Rot would sit on his throne he had built for him. In front of the throne was a giant monitor that would monitor the area in which those invited would assemble. Once they were around, the Governor-General would make his move. Until then, he just sat there... alone, as he had always preferred it.
Security for this event would be extremely tight. The inside perimeter was monitored by Army personnel with patrols along the perimeter fence. Outside of the fence, Security Forces would stage their own patrols. Of course no operation would be without code words in which each man was forced to remember by memory. No one would have on them a single source of the code. Help the troops that forgot the codeword. The main road leading Eluthan was blocked off by Security Forces as well. Thus if someone managed to make it past the blocking force, they'd no doubt be found in the desert wasteland that led to the base.
As for the invitees themselves, with each of their invitations came a special codeword themselves. Once the word was given, they would be given a highly secure upload of the route they were to take. The landing bay that sat in the form of a Red Orb that sat on top of the building would open up enough to allow the shuttles to land. Once landed, a small band would play the representative's nation's anthem as they landed. But besides the diplomatic shuttles, air patrols were restricted to the airspace over Eluthan, however there would also be the normal patrols that constantly flew around Acherin. The Capital Ships in space were ordered to keep constant eyes on the empty void that was space.
As for Colonel Neolight and his members of the parade, they were busy elsewhere prepping for the parade.

| The Beautiful Mind dropped out of hyperspace some distance from Acherin, where the smaller yacht would be picked up on scanners. Maneuvering towards the planet, the pilot transmitted the flight data, announcing that the vessel belonged to Representative Alyn Stark who'd come on behalf for an invite to the Governor-General's palace and that Representative Stark had brought with him one guest.

| As the Beautiful Mind would drop from hyperspace, the Acclamator-II The Blood Patriot would detect the ship dropping from Hyperspace and on a course for Acherin itself. With the proper clearance to pass, the ship would send word for escorts to follow Lord Stark's ship in. Out of no where, Acherin's newly acquired Eta-2 Interceptors (Blood Red primary color, Black secondary)would emerge from around the planet and 3 of them would guide the ship inbound. Being as how Lord Stark was transporting himself as well as his guest in a yacht, a transmission was sent to the vessel that it would be directed to a secondary landing zone. However, the 3 Eta-2s would assume a guarding position around the yacht as they would lead the ship towards the secondary landing zone in Eluthan. When the ship landed, it's occupants would be loaded onto an APC and from there directed to the Black Hand building, which in a big base like Eluthan, was 10 minutes in the center of it all.

| A smaller, yet very sleek personal ship built by Krandor Industries (a Krandor 542-H, to be specific), Persephone, dropped out of hyperspace near to Archerin. Riley, Ilanah Thanatos' personal guard, followed the incredibly specific directions for gaining clearance to not only break atmosphere, but also to land for the Governor-General's soiree that he was hosting. Riley gave the codeword and awaited a response and instructions for landing.
Meanwhile, the Senator was sitting in her stateroom, already dressed in a gown befitting a party such as the one being held. She was reading President/Senator, Governor-General Tu'Rot's senate profile, and desperately wracking her brain to try and remember if she had ever met him. Ilanah imagined that she hadn't, but she couldn't be completely sure until she actually met him. After all, she had already made a mistake with Alyn Stark, and that was embarrassing enough that she did not want to do it again.

| The Persephone was the next vessel to be detected by the Blood Patriot and thus started to upload the coordinates to the ships nav computer and was instructed to follow coordinates. As like before as well, 2 Eta-2s would emerge from the shadows of the planet and escort the vessel towards the designated landing spot; the orb of the Black Hand.

| The Beautiful Mind, upon receiving its escort, would transmit the information that the yacht itself would not be landing, but that Representative Stark's personal ship, the YV-666 Infinite Thought would be transporting the Representative and his guest to the surface. Once the transport landed and Stark had locked it down securely, he and Ana Riley, who was dressed in a beautiful silver slinky dress, would board the APC for transport to the Black Hand building where, presumably, they'd be passed through security and into the area in which the party was to occur.

| The APC crew would ensure that the party guests were taken care of the moment they stepped foot into the APC. Flanked by 2 Acherin Soldiers, the APC would calmly yet hastily ensure that the occupants would arrive at their destination. The 3 Eta-2s that escorted the vessel would shoot back up towards the readiness zone established for this event and stand by for more guests as well as any potential threat. Pulling up to the front of the building, the back would lower down and the 2 soldiers would exit the vehicle first and would stand by the door. On the inside were body scanners and all Lord Stark as well as his guest would have to do was stand in front of then, sign the guest book, and then make their way all the way up to the highest floor of the Black Hand building.

| The Persephone was landed, as per instructed, in the landing bay provided. With Senator Thanatos was her husband, Kal. Her guard, Riley stayed behind with the ship, as he usually did. She was quite safe with the Inquisitor, after all.
Ilanah was hardly bothered by the two soldiers that escorted them, and of course Kal was stoically silent during the entire process, as was she. Once arrived at the body scanners, aside from having to explain to the guard that she had about a half dozen pins in the bones of her leg leg, Ilanah was fine. Whether Kal would be or not was yet to be seen. She knew though that he could handle the explanation if need be and she went ahead to sign the book before she would wait for him to catch up with her.

| To say that Ana was nervous would have been an understatement. When it came to the world of Alyn Stark, she was ill-equipped and inexperienced to deal with the rich and powerful, or famous. Her quiet life on Naboo had always been preferred, so this was all new, and nerve wracking. It was also something that she was going to have to learn to deal with, and she had been assured by Mrs. Miteya that she would be fine and she would get used to it. In fact, the woman had helped Ana choose the perfect gown for the occasion; a stunning strapless silver sheath that dragged the floor behind her.
Once arrived, Ana took it upon herself to sign for both her and Alyn, since her handwriting was much neater, albeit scrolly and loopy. She had taken the time, of course, to read what she could find on the holo about Draken Tu'Rot, but she still had no idea what to expect from this party in his honor. Ana refused to let herself worry too much about it, and just slipped her arm around Alyn's and stayed at his side.

| Stark and Ana arrived after Ilanah and her husband and, as such, missed their entrance. Stark was devoid of his usual weapons, but dressed in a black, form-fitting once-piece bodysuit that was covered by dark green trousers and a dark green vest that was gilded with silver scroll-work so as to match with Ana. As she signed for them, Stark would submit to the full body scan. Outside of a small datapad, he had a single caller unit that doubled as a comlink. When indeed they were passed through, Stark would escort Ana to the top of the building, looking for Tu'Rot.
"Don't be so nervous, my love," Stark whispered to Ana as they walked. "You seem so ill at ease. This is to be a fun party. Acherin is highly militaristic and as such, all these soldiers and security precautions are part of their culture."

| All of the findings on the party guests would be logged and ultimately sent to Governor-General Tu'Rot for review. "An inquisitor!" Shouted Draken in sheer joy. The fact that someone of such title here at the party excited him greatly. As each guest arrived at the top level, they were greeted with their planet's anthem by the Acherin Band. Playing their music in perfect sync as well as adding the unique instruments, started the show. Above them was a red ceiling that displayed the outside, as the Black Hand Building was known for the giant red orb it held in the sky. All around them, the party guests could view in a certain angle a giant view of the military fortress of Eluthan, and if they had really good eyesight, miles of desert that surrounded Eluthan. Tables and tables of food were lined up with members of Acherin's Army dressed up in their Dress Black Uniforms awaiting to serve the guests. However the guests would notice that Draken Tu'Rot was no where in sight... until a giant monitor would fall from the ceiling and hold it's position thanks to cables. The screen was dark, and then suddenly the man that was Draken Tu'Rot appeared on the screen. "Welcome!!!!" Screamed the politician as he let off a big smile. "Do excuse this little difficulty, I seemed to have lost my bow-tie for the evening and yet cannot find it!!!" Sighed the man as he looked away from the screen. "I will be up to join you all shortly, until that time, do feel free to take advantage of the food!!!" And then the screen shut off again. The band would start to play casual music for the time being.

| Ana smoothed her chestnut locks idly with her fingertips as Alyn spoke to her. "Iam so sorry, Alyn. I am just not used to this kind of setting, and it made me nervous." She murmured as she smoothed the fabric of his shirt with her fingertips. The room that the party was being held in was quite lovely.
Almost immediately, she spotted Senator Thanatos and her husband, though from what she had heard from Alyn, the woman was having some issues with her memory. "Alyn...I think I will go..." She was going to say hello, but was interrupted by Tu'Rot on the screen. Ana frowned briefly as he spoke, then glanced to Alyn. "Does he always scream like that?"

| "No need to be nervous, my love. If there's any place that's... well, nearly as safe as Castle Stark, it would likely be here. Governor-General Tu'Rot is a security-minded man and, as you say," Stark paused to chuckle, "He does tend to be a little vocal. Don't ask him about the glory of the Empire unless you wish to hear loud volumes. All that aside, as far as I know the man, he's a decent sort."
Up ahead, Stark spotted the Thanatos'. That was a surprise of sorts as Ilanah was reported to have lost her memory. Her husband... that was one Stark didn't care for. He was obviously no Jedi, but Gadrid had recognized him as a Force-user. Barring being a hidden sort with little talent, that marked him as one of the Empire's Inquisitors, and Stark had no love for that sort. Inquisitors poking about in one's business was never a good thing. It seemed there would be time to mingle before Tu'Rot arrived.

| Ilanah nodded some, forcing a smile on her face as Kal whispered to her and motioned in the direction of Alyn Stark and the young lady with him. "You are sure I have not met her?" Kal shook his head and shrugged some, and then murmured something about not recognizing her from the party on Lorrd. A party that she remembered none of. According to her physician, her short term memory was damaged in the accident, though there was a chance of it coming back. Already she was remembering small things, but nothing life changing.
He patted her arm reassuringly and nudged her off in the direction of Alyn and Ana before he moved off to the bar. After a moments hesitation, she would approach the pair. "Representative Stark," Lana started, "It is nice to see you again. I am so glad that the misunderstanding in the Senate worked out for you. I wish there had been more that I could have done to help. I thought what you did was very noble." She stated before she turned her gaze to Ana uncertainly.
"I am not sure we have met, have we?" She asked, very uncertainly. Her gaze went between the pair as she awaited an answer from either of them.

| "And a pleasure to see you too, Senator Thanatos, and your husband as well." Stark inclined his head to both of them. "The Senate is what it is, Senator, and there are those who dislike anyone they feel they cannot bully or forcibly persuade. Forgive me though, where are my manners? Senator Thanatos, this is Miss Ana Riley. Ana my dear, this is Senator Thanatos of Chandrila and her husband, Kal Thanatos.
"You may have known her as being Representative Vanden's aide, Senator."
