From the Shadow's, [Open]

[Sirus]

The two ha'tak orbited the world of Elysium standing vigilant against invaders. It was evident just by looking at these ships that some was in charge down on the planet. Yet it hadn't always been that way, it had only been about a year since Sirus had arrived on this world with a tel'tak, fifty jaffa and fifty workers. It had taken seveal weeks to prove to the people that were native to the world that he had no interesting in harming them. In fact in the time it taken to earn the people's trust he had begun building a small settlement. It had taken a bit of effort but Sirus had built up a network of trade with the nearest vilages and in exchange he help trian the youths of theese villages into better warriors. It was a simple yet rewarding life as Sirus had learned there was a stargate on this world. It had been first place he had set his guards to watch as a stargate could pose trouble for this world.

It was only right as Sirus saw it to the protection of the people he would possibly be endangering. Sirus had been on the planet for almost four months when he had been attacked by a minor gou'ald. It had been a viscious battle but in the end Sirus had managed to gain control of the two ha'tak that now orbited the planet and had gotten fifty jaffa to join his ranks. In that same battle he had revealed his allegience to his forces as being with that of the Tok'ra. As this declaration had been made to his followers none off world knew of his loyalties. A few weeks after that his mentor and lover Narhia arrieved planet with a force of 50 of her Dragon Guard and two hundred workers. Also she had brought a two tel'tak with her. The transport that delivered her forces knew nothing of what was happening only that a small army and their support was heading to a new world. She told him of how her world had been over run and only a hand full of her loyal followers had managed to escape through the gate.

Since then Narhia had sworn to serve Sirus and her forces had been joined with his. They had slowly built up and recruited another two hundred free jaffa warriors and had found thirty-four of her Dragon guard on Haven. He had gained the use of one hundred and twenty Death Gliders. It had been an interesting year and for some reason Sirus had been named to the Tok'ta High Council. Narhia was only a Tok'ra Elder but she had played a part in his rise to the leadership of the Tok'ra. He had earned the trust of the movment and now they asked for his leadrship in the time to come. So now he would fight as best he knew how and in the process aid the people of Elysium.

Two hat'ak, their bays filled with 24 death gliders each, float in orbit of Elysium standing vigilant as the world below slowly advances into a thriving population of trained warriors. Sirus standing a turn on the bridge of his command ship looks down at the world wondering if it would survive the things he planned for it. It made him wonder how he was to ensure the survival of his race. Without a queen the Tok'ra were dying and with them the means to see the end of the System Lords. He only hoped that he would be able to find something in time. He had seen what the System Lords were capable of and knew that he needed to amass a force big enough to put the Gou'ald on notice. He knew he needed allies and he hoped that he would find them. He had heard about the Tau'ri and their ploys and wondered how the Tok'ra had allowed the alliance with them to lapse. As a warrior at heart Sirus knew the benefit of action and knew that it was ones who acted that set the tone of things.

After a short while Sirus rings back to the planet and looks around the settlement that he had started. The settlement that recently had begun to be seen as the world's capital. He had to meet with delagates from all the other settlements and arrange a trade schedule to better supply the entire world. Then there was the territory disputes that Sirus had begun to oevr see. He had by no design of his own shown that while he had no desire to rule he was the most capable to do so. Sirus had show that he was a man of action and instead of fearing what could happen he was uniting the world and building something that none of the world's leaders had imagined.

Looking around at the poulation Sirus wondered what do to next as he knew that to support itself the world needed to be able to train warriors and develop weapons. As he was a warrior leader he had early on started a facility that would serve as a training center of the warriors of the world. In fact the first cadre had just finished training and was ready to join the ranks of what was becoming known as the Elysium Defense Force. Sirus was scheduled to speak at the graduation ceremony and already a festival of sorts had started and men from all the villages had been trained up. Elysium for one night would rest from the hard work Sirus had insisted up and would celebrate the year's acheivements. Yet even then a portion of Sirus's forces would be vigilant and on watch.

~~~~~~~~~~

How many trained warriors are in the graduation cadre?
Are there any on the planet that oppose what Sirus has done?
Does anything unnatural happen while the celebration begins? (this can be answered in either/both Did I's and other PC interactions)

[Ayden Hardi]

How many trained warriors are in the graduation cadre?
Twenty-five highly trained and skilled warriors are graduating, each with an unfaltering loyalty to Sirus

Are there any on the planet that oppose what Sirus has done?
There are some settlements that have begun to question Sirus' motives and are beginning to openly question whether or not Sirus' actions are for the good of the whole planet. Some even go so far as to call for his removal, but those few are generally quieted quickly.

Does anything unnatural happen while the celebration begins?
At the moment, all is well and the atmosphere is one of pleasantries and exuberance. However, one of your Jaffa informs you that there are a pair of shady figures with hoods covering their faces walking around.

[Sirus]

Sirus knew about about the whispered discent but before he could do anything it always just seemed to disappear. Yet this night Sirus wasn't goint to worry about that as he had other things to focus on. He had twenty-five jaffa trained humans to congratulate and welcome to the ranks of his slowly growing army. An army that some day woudl be large enough to do damage to the tyranny of the System Lords. Already he was pleased as he knew that warriors that graduated today would be the first of many. It was still an hour or so until the ceremony when a Jaffa joins him and tells him of him of a pair of hooded strangers walking around the settlement. Slowly Sirus nods and orders the jaffa to keep an eyes on the pair and then goes to mingle with the crowd. As Sirus walks he checks the hand device that wa on his left hand and then at the zat that rested on his left hip while slowly appoaching the hooded figures. He didn't quite know what to expect but he wanted to speak with them to see what would happen.

Do the hooded figures react to Sirus's appoach?
What noticable features does Sirus notice about the figures?

(permission by Sirus)

The Gate hade activated, and 11 People walked out of it cloaked in black at there sides A pistol and a Dagger the elventh had a pistol and a Rifle at his side and two daggers on his back. The wormhole close moments later and in the darkness the 11 people vanished, Galos was given orders to gather Intell on this man that was running the planet the people of a village wanted to know if he was up to anything.

The celebrations where a good distraction to capture the person and intergate him, the group Arived out side the town just as the celebrations had started "Jack, Marisa, Isle and Mathew take the left side, Elizabeth, Kall, Gai and River Take the Right try and find him. Elaine and Eric come with me. Right split" the Group all jumped off ontop of the buildings and head for the Celebration that was going on, Galos and the other 2 walked down the streets with there hoods on.

(Note we are not the 2 hooded people)

[Ayden Hardi]

Do the hooded figures react to Sirus's approach?
They don't seem to notice your approach, too engrossed in their discussion.

What noticeable features does Sirus notice about the figures?
Just before you come within touching distance, they drop their hoods of their own volition. They wave and smile at another couple and move to join them.

-Looking around, you notice several other pairs of people with their hoods up. Given the overcast weather, it looks to be impossible to determine who has their hood up for malicious purposes.

[Sirus]

Sirus looks at the people with interest wondering who they were. A moment later he takes a deep breath before speaking. "Welcome to Estia. I am Sirus, the leader of this settlement. If I might ask how might I be of assistance to you?" Sirus looks at each of the figures while waiting for a response to his his question. As it was he had things he had to do in about an hour but these guests had peaked his interest. As waits for a reply a Jaffa warrior brings Sirus news that they had recieved two rather important transmissions that required his attention. He looks at the strange guest and then sighs softly. He would deal with them first before handling his other business. He sends the Jaffa warrior away with orders to stand ready and await him in communications room. At about about that same time Sopdu starts to get antsy in the back of Sirus's mind as the symbiote feels the presense of another host nearby. Unfortunately he is unable to discern any other inforamtion about the possible threat and knows that now more than ever he needed to be careful with his actions infront of his guests.

~~~~~~~~

How do the hooded people react to Sirus's greeting?

[Galos Raven]

Elizabeth’s Group Continued moving fast and very stealthy across the right sides roofs looking for the target, Jacks Group was doing the same on the left side. Galos Was moving threw the crowds looking for Sirus he had just court sight of him when he started to sense a Host was close by ‘hmm this might explain why he is he, he might be a Goa’uld’ Galos Court sight of the Jaffa moving away “he must be, I found the target be advised the Target may be a Goa’uld get ready for Combat” Galos said over the comlink as he moved into a Ally way, ‘I have to be careful here he can sense me as well looks like I’ll be crashing this party’ Galos looked at Elaine “Elaine go with Eric to the Stargate and get John we might need his help to get out of here” Elaine Nodded and both of then Vanished into the crowds. Galos moved back into the crowd with a hand on one of his daggers as he moved closer to Sirus “if I managed to get him I want you guys to protect me for above take out anyone that looks like they would try and be a hero”.


The team all said roger at the same time, Galos gulped as he moved closer trying to blend into the crowd it wasn’t until he got closer he sore the people with hoods on “hmm this might work to my advantage Elizabeth come to me where going to act as a couple” Elizabeth nearly scream no at him but didn’t “fine sir” She moved off the roof and headed to Galos. Galos Smiled and put his arm around her and smiled “we might be able to get closer to him this way and if he reacts hostile to me then I know he is the Goa’uld and try to look happy” Elizabeth sighed “roger that”. Galos and Elizabeth moved closer to Sirus both making sure that they didn’t show there weapons.

[Thor]

How do the hooded people react to Sirus's greeting?

This sort of did i is up to you. No longer staff involved.

[Sirus]

(Okay fine whatever Thor but I will end up screw this up as it was Ayden who introduced the figures and I have no idea in hell who they they are or what they want. Again sorry if I screw this up but I can't wait any longer for a reply.)

~~~~~~~~~

Sirus waits for a minute and gets no reply from the figures and sighs knowing that he would need to get to the bottom of this later. He nods to the figures and turns to leave the group. He had business to attend to and it needed to be hurried. He orders a few of his jaffa to keep an eye on the figures as the start to group together talking amongst themselves. Sirus heads to his communications center and listens to the two transmissions. As he listens he sighs knowing that this day of celebration was now at end. Battle called as did the pursuit of contacting an old ally. He quickly leaves the center and finds Narhia and prepares her to contact their ally. Narhia heads to the gate on her mission as Sirus turns to a jaffa and orders that his ha'taks and a full compliment of death gliders be prepared for a rescue mission. He has 150 of his jaffa ring up to the hat'ak in preparation to the mission. As he prepares the mission he has his communications center send a message to the besieged Tok'ra base that help was on its way and to prepare for an evacuation.

Once that was done Sirus takes a few moments to search the settlement for any sign of the mysterious host that he had sensed. He worked alone quickly moving towards the edge of the settlement as around him his forces prepared to move. Yet for anyone following him or looking for him he would be easy to get to. Turning a corner he runs right into a pair of thoe hooded folks only this time one of them happened to be the host he was looking for. "Onak sha kree, shel Goa'uld?"

[Galos Raven]

Galos and Elizabeth watch all the activity that was going on “hmm this may be bad come with me” Galo grabbed Elizabeth into a ally we going to have to grab him with out anyone knowing” Elizabeth nodded then froze and put a hand on Galos handgun that was in the cloak, Galos didn’t know what she was doing then he heard "Onak sha kree, shel Goa'uld?". Galos Turned around and at the same time Elizabeth grabbed the gun out and pointed it at Sirus “Elizabeth its alright” Galo took his hood of and smiled “Goach, sha kree, lo Goa'uld” The Tok’ra had told him the password a long time ago when he was with them. Galo grabbed the gun of Elizabeth and put it away then Radioed in to the others “Stand down he isn’t Goa’uld but Tok’ra”. Turning looking at Elizabeth who was in shock to meet a Tok’ra first off Galo wiped away a tear “I Am Galos raven, Ex-Ashrak thanks to the Tok’ra and you are?”

[Sirus]

"Greetings Galos and to you too Elizabeth. I am High Councilor Sirus and..." Sirus's eyes start to glow gold and his voice deepens as Sopdu gains control of the body. "...I am Sopdu, son of Ra and protector of Elysium." Sirus regains control and looks at the ex-Ashrak thoughfully a moment. "I am sure you noticed the excitement I was preparing to give a speech to the first class of warriors that I have trained since being here. Then recieved word that one of the Tok'ra bases is under attack and I am preparing a rescus as we speak. Now I have a few questions for you but if you would be kind enough to either accompany me or wait for my return I need to be going." The way it was said Sirus would prefer that Galos and his forces join him on the rescue mission.

[Galos Raven]

Galos Nodded "well i have some questions that i must ask you on behalf of my Client" Galos Looked at Elizabeth then taped his Comlink "Elaine tell John that his men will be needed to help the Tok'ra he and his men have been itiching for a fight" Elaine had just reached the stagate and started to Dial "right sir i have John radio you on the Alkesh". Galos flicked his hand up and then flicked it down fast and the rest of the Assassins Jumped down behind him "On your lead Sirus i willl follow you".

[Sirus]

Sirus walks to a plat form and nods to a jaffa who presses a button and the group is ringed up to Sirus's flagship The Dragon's Shield. Oncethere he leads the group the pel'tak and assumes command of his fleet. There would be 48 death gliders and two hatak going on this mission and he just hoped it would be enough to rescue his brethren and their allies. He gives the order for the fleet to jump to hyperspace and then turns to Galos. "So my friend what questions do you want answered?"

[Galos Raven]

The Apprentices where taken to there quaters as Galos and Elizabeth followed Sirus to the Peltak "So my friend what questions do you want answered?" Galos smiled "right to the point well my Client would like to know who you are and your motives he does't trust that you work with Jaffa". Jack and the others sat down in the quaters that were given to them "so do you trust him this Sirus?" Kall looked at him "Master Galos does that good enough for me" Jack laughed "i heard that he was once a Ashrak" River sighed "your an idiot Jack you should question what he once was but what he is now".

[Sirus]

"I am a High Councilor of the Tok'ra and my intentions are to defend my people. I am a warrior Galos and the galaxy is full of threats. I once served my father Ra faithfully and in end I realized that what I was doing was wrong. Yes I have Jaffa but each serves freely so that the Goa'uld may be pushed back and that freedom may be theirs. I plan to use Elysium as a stronghold and as my forces grow so will the protection I am able to give its people. Tell you client that I have no intentions of enslaving the populace." Sirus falls silent as he looks out the window at the hyper space window that showed the passage of vast distances. He hoped he had answered this man well enough. "Right now a Tok'ra base is under attack and I hope they can hold out until we get there to help out."
