| The Purifier who'd been taken by surprise by the Nexu was on the ground, his weapon at his side as he tried futilely to keep the catlike alien from his neck. The other four were stunned for a moment as their weapons were ripped from their grasp; none were going to rush at the lightsaber-wielding female with no weapons. However, one of the men closest to the man under attack dove for his fallen plasma rifle while the other three reached for their E-11 sidearms. No Purifier went into battle with just their burning weapons. If they had time to draw them, they'd certainly fire on her and the Nexu. This was the major leagues for them, and Deschain would have accepted no less.
Deschain, meanwhile, continued to observe her.

| Illiandra tilted her head some, letting her tousled blonde hair fall to the side. Fenrir would stop, momentarily, ripping the jugular from the fallen purifier and snap at the one going for the weapon next to him. Poor kitty was hungry. He was growling, keeping the one man pinned with his paws and claws digging against his armor.
Meanwhile, Illiandra had straightened up some, though she kept the lightsaber ignited and dropped to her side. She drew up the force again, something that was mostly close to effortless, and with a simple push of her hand, pushed the four remaining purifiers back and hopefully off of their feet with some amount of force.
The purifier closest was the one she stalked to. "I really hate playing like this....all you had to do was play nice. AND WIPE YOUR FEET!" She leaned down and hooked her fingers under the helmet of his uniform and tore it off easily, before she dropped a knee into his chest and kept the lightsaber hovering dangerously close. Her gaze snapped to the others briefly, the three down, and one pinned under her baby.
"You will scream a little for me, won't you pet?" She murmured to the man before she wormed three fingers from her free hand into his mouth and hooked them around his jaw behind his teeth and yanked hard to dislocate the bones.

| The young woman was being watch, in fact she was being watched for a while now. The moment her most recent killings took place the call was already sent out on an encrypted channel. It was only moments after the Inquisitor Rath Deschain landed that a Theta class T-2c shuttle dropped from hyperspace above Corellia and made its way down to the planet below, landing quietly before those on board stepped off, the three dark robed figures stepping into the shadows and seemingly disappearing into the crowds as they made their way to the house that was the scene of the most recent slaughter. Watching quietly from the sideline the three figures laughed lightly as they watched the Inquisitors "purifiers" being taken apart by the young woman.
Kulan stood quietly as he watched, his presence and the two other Shadow Guards with him were being masked by the force, hiding their sensitivity from the Inquisitor and the young woman. Ultimately Kulan would let Deschain handle the situation, though at this moment and with him being the Master Guardsman it would come down to him to choose if he and the other Shadow Guards would step in to deal with the young woman.

| The Purifier that the Nexu kitten had assaulted twitched violently several times and went still. The second closest had almost reached the weapon when hesitation from the growling alien made him pause for that split second and then the Force push struck them all, hurling them back, dazed. The closest and most unfortunate one who was currently suffering the process of an unpleasantly dislocated jaw gave a muffled scream even as the others were trying to recover their senses, as well as their weapons.
Deschain, meanwhile, continued to watch. His hands were covered for the moment and he clicked a comlink he held in one of them three times, with deliberate spacing between them. The signal would call for others to come and provide backup as necessary. Normally Deschain was loathe to waste his cultivated and almost all-handpicked soldiers from the 1st Purifiers. For a moment, he felt something... a disturbance in the Force. He brushed it away for the moment and turned his attention back to the female, seeing how she would handle herself. In the meantime, he began channeling his anger, filling himself with the dark side.

| Finally, Illiandra relaxed, releasing the mans now broken jaw. "So young and pretty.....aren't you?" She murmured, turning her head some so she could examine him, broken jaw and all. Aside from the mutilation, he was a handsome young man. He would have made a fun pet, but she couldn't let him survive after the mess he made. So with one swift movement, she detached the rest of his jaw completely from his body and snapped his neck.
Illiandra leaned forward and kissed his forehead briefly before she pulled herself up, still ignited lightsaber in one hand, bloody dripping jawbone and flesh in the other. Her gaze went to the others and she tilted her head before she finally turned blue eyes to Deschain. "Did you come to see me, or kill me?" She asked as she took a step forward. If she could have felt him drawing that much dark power to him, she would have been reveling in the pleasure of it all.
"I think you need me. Want me. And I have a gift for you." Illiandra said before her gaze went to her pet for a moment, who was still gnawing on the neck of the other downed purifier. The more time he took with her, the more Deschain would realize that she was absolutely out of her mind.

| Kulan continued to watch the display of power that this little woman was throwing about, she could be a powerful tool and he had a feeling that the Inquisitor felt the same way, though he also noticed that the Inquisitor was beginning to draw on the Dark Side, pulling it to him and filling himself with it. The three Shadow Guards stood quietly and just watched, noticing the small movement on the Inquisitors part to call in more of his "purifiers" to the slaughter as Kulan just watched, smirking when he saw the young woman tear the jaw complete from the place it had once been on the man. This was by far the most interesting show that he had seen.

| It was hard for one to wonder exactly how Kulan or his accompanying Shadow Guard saw observed Deschain making such a slight movement as clicking a comm link button when his hands were hidden from sight, and his arms were shrouded by robes. One could wonder this, but perhaps chalk it up to some form of amazing Force-o-vision. Furthermore, Kulan would be unable to sense Deschain doing anything through the Force, largely due to the Taozin amulet that Deschain wore, which was as much a secret of the Inquisitorious as it was exclusive to their particular order. Neither, of course, would the woman.
Deschain motioned his men back slightly. Leaving their sidearms holstered for the moment, they clustered about the door. The reinforcements were perhaps five minutes out, perhaps a little less. Deschain's men knew how to move fast and efficiently. The faceless High Inquisitor faced down the strange woman, looking from behind the holo-mask he wore into her eyes, though all she'd see would be the inky blackness of the unknown, the pair of dead men all but forgotten, though their names would be engraved in the Roster of the Fallen.
"Need and want are such strong words. What is this gift you have brought for me? Perhaps we can discuss it... and then discuss what will happen to you."

| Illiandra gave him a rather blank look for a moment and then de-activated the unused lightsaber and retired it to the pocket it had been in before she started walking towards the house. The remaining purifiers were clustered there and she tilted her head some to see if they would scatter enough to let her through the doorway. Fenrir, of course, was hot on her heels, purring like a madman after a feast.
Once inside, she unceremoniously dumped the jawbone on the dining table, into a plate of scones she had sat out for the tea party between the corpses. Illiandra stopped short once she reached the puddles of blood, and let out almost a whimper before she tiptoed around the thick pools. To someone in their right mind, it shouldn't have mattered seeing as how her entire right arm, hand and the right side of her light blue dress was covered in blood from the dead boy in the backyard.
She would return moments later with a scone and something silver in her left palm, and she looked to Deschain. "Do you have a name? Or shall I make one up for you?" She nearly purred before she handed the scone to the nearest purifier. "You look hungry." Illiandra said to him before turning her attention fully back to Deschain once more.
"Did you know...that when it is dark enough, you can see the stars...?" She murmured before she held her palm up and on it laid the glittering silver hilt of a Jedi lightsaber.

| The Jedi lightsaber in the young womans hand was more than enough to peek the interest of the Shadow Guards, the three of them quickly focusing on the woman as the other two looked to Kulan, waiting for an order. It had come down to it being Kulan's decision now if they should step in or not to deal with the young woman, that lightsaber though was making the decision more and more easier to make as Kulan for the moment just waved his hand lightly, keeping the other two waiting as well. He wanted to see where this was going to go before he made his final choice. His eyes focused to the young woman as the other two Shadow Guards began to pace back and forth, their eyes focusing on the purifiers and counting them off in their minds and noting their locations and stances as they remained watching over the spectacle, the bloody, bloody spectacle.

| In the absence of the woman, the remaining three Purifiers moved to recover certain weapons. The one closest to the corpses retrieved the fallen plasma rifle. One hooked his E-11 into his hand the final drew an SE-14R light repeating blaster from a thigh holster, but none of them moved to block the woman's progress. Scatter indeed they had, when she walked towards the door, and when she re-emerged, the Purifier closest to her, the one with the E-11 accepted the scone with a stammered thank-you, almost afraid to upset this woman. It did help to know that backup would be pulling up in front of the house momentarily and that the building would soon be covered from within by a number of angles.
For now, the trio of Purifiers were back in a semi-circle, their backs to the house wall, keeping the woman, if not penned in, then at least between them and Deschain. "I have a name," he allowed emotionless. "I am Rath Deschain, High Inquisitor of the Empire." When she brought the lightsaber out, he glanced at it briefly... and then back again. He'd seen that saber somewhere before. He couldn't place the owner's name, but the face... the man had been a Jedi, and not one ill-trained either. "You have brought something I would like indeed," Deschain stated. "In my world though... there are no stars. There is only darkness, unending. It is a world with many doorways... if one is brave enough to accept the path."

| She tilted her head as she looked over the weapon laying against the pale flesh of her palm. "I've named all the stars." Illiandra said thoughtfully before she snapped her cobalt blue gaze up to the faceless man. "Rath....Deschain...." She tried the name out, but it was foreign and unfamiliar. "I named them all the same name, but....I can't see them anymore. It's never dark enough."
"You've called help, haven't you?" She would ask, turning her head away from him as if she was listening for something that no one else could hear. Finally, she would pay attention to him again. "Would you like this?" She offered him the hilt of the weapon. "I fear that I did not get his name, nor did Fenrir, but he died well....crying like a Jedi riddled with fear..." She nodded towards the cat-like alien who was sharpening his claws on the door frame.

| It seemed like it had come down to a small little talk as the two Shadow Guards continued their pacing back and forth, watching as the "purifiers" that had been called in began to head into the house as Kulan just smirked beneath his helmet. This had gone on long enough and he was going to make a decision soon enough. For the moment it was a small and simple one as he began to open himself to the Dark Side, making his presence along with the two guards with him known as he motioned with his hand, the other two stopped pacing before they joined at his side as the three began to walk towards the house. They knew the count of the purifiers that had placed their bodies between the young woman and the Inquisitor as Kulan stood silently far enough away from the house, the two other Shadow Guards remaining at his side as the three stood like black monoliths in the sun, their only color the red visor that prevented their eyes from being seen.

| "Then come with me... the darkness is deeper than you can imagine. I can show you how to see it... how to see into the depths that even the light cannot touch." Outside the house, the transports containing a full platoon of Purifiers had emerged, allowing them to start drawing up and moving into the house. "I like to have my friends with me. Your gift... is quite acceptable." He smiled, though she'd not be able to see it. "You did well, taking this from a Jedi... filth of the galaxy. What is your name?"
As Kulan and his accomplices emerged, Deschain, feeling them, half-turned, with his hand still outstretched to the woman, watching them and feeling a bit of his amusement die away. "Shadow guards. What are the Emperor's lap dogs doing here? I don't recall requesting help from your kind."

| The weapon would still be offered to him to take if he wanted it. It was then that he offered for her to come along. "Where would we go, Rath Deschain?" Illiandra asked before she felt Fenrir bump his head against her leg, and she dropped her hand down to pet him. "He goes where I go." she said, quite firmly, as if it were a deal breaker.
His last question to her took a moment to answer, as she felt several more presences, some that unsettled her. "Illiandra." She said simply before she looked away from the High Inquisitor, and over her shoulder at the masked men there. "I am the popular one today, aren't I?"
