Chapter 2
Deep within the Citadel, Revala collapses on her office chair in exhaustion. Revala has just finished her meeting with the Dark Council and just spoke to Darth Marr about her prospective Vacation spot, Asaya. Now if anyone came into her office they would see Nox going through her personal holo-terminal thoroughly scanning its contents.
'Hmmm, a cultural dance show called su'ao (Author's note: a parody of a Hawaiian Luau) that looks like a fun show to go to. Maybe Ashara would like that.' She thought. As she was scanning there was then a beep at the door.
"Come in!" She exclaimed. The door opens and her trustful friends and allies enter all looking worse for wear.
'Oh no! I've never noticed how tired they are too.' She thought guiltily. 'They most defiantly deserve a vacation too.' Ashara, Andronikos, Talos, Khem, and Xalek positively looked exhausted, though like always Andronikos, Xalek, and Khem put on a manly illusion that clearly was fake.
'I bet those guys are just whining like impetuous children inside, but will never ever admit it.' She thought amused.
Her friends then sit at their new conference chairs that Revala had recently placed to have private meetings with her allies whether it be them or admirals under Revala's command.
"My friends we have a brand new assignment of great proportion." She began.
"Isn't every mission like that?" Andronikos sarcastically said. Revala and others just rolled their eyes at him.
"Yes, but this one is super, incredibly important." Revala said arms flailing out of a weird mixture of frustration and excitement. This caused her friends to pause and look at each other thinking that their master/ friend has clearly gone insane from all of the work that's been put in non-stop for the last few months.
"My lord what kind of mission is it?" Ashara warily asked. Then the brightest and most happy smile Revala has ever shown appeared onto her face before she took a breath and excitedly exclaimed her new mission.
"Operation Vacation!" Revala said in a singing voice. She looked at her friends, but there was no response as they were in too much shock to say anything. This causes her to frown.
"What? I figured it was a good idea... don't you guys want to go have fun with me?" She said with her eyes shining like a small puppy. This instantly caused regret and remorse upon everyone at the table. By the Force they hated it when she did that. They were a bunch of elite soldiers who are capable of wiping out entire fortifications and armies of the Empire's enemies, but Revala's innocent and sad expression always puts a needle into their heart. They were a bunch of saps deep inside and Revala knew exactly how to twist it to her advantage.
"No, no my lord please don't be sad we'll go." Talos said quickly. "It's just unexpected considering I do not think I have ever heard of a Sith Lord on vacation." Instantly, Revala went back to all smiles and now excitement. The crew seriously hates it when she changes her mood like that it is so freaking creepy.
"Awesome, and yes I know why its sounds so shocking because I honestly did not think Sith go on vacation either." She then paused. "Khem, now that I think about it, but did Tulak Hord, or any other Sith, ever go on vacation in that time?"Everyone looked at him as well rather curious as well, especially Talos the ever dedicated scholar.
"Actually yes, after the battle of Yn we actually went to relax on Korriban at an ancient hot spring... I managed to receive a massage from servants as well." He said embarrassed. Everyone including Revala were wide eyed at this. The mighty Khem Val enjoying a massage at a hot spring with an ancient Dark Lord of the Sith?! That's new.
Grumpily Khem says, "What is it really such a shock that I enjoy a massage? I figured all sentient life enjoys a good massage on their back after slaughtering armies of Jedi, Sith, and soldiers." This causes a silent audience to laugh good naturedly.
"Yeah your right. It's just unexpected considering you are a badass super soldier who eat force users" Androikos said while chuckling. Khem shrugs in response.
"Well that is one thing I have to book you in for my friend." Revala said smiling. "Well everyone the place we are going to for vacation is a planet called Asaya, recommended by Darth Marr."
"After Khem mentioning Tulak Hord vacationing I'm not even surprised anymore." Andronikos smirked.
"Anyway, I can rent out a beach and beach house just for us. and we can go into town whenever we want via speeder." Revala said excitedly. "The town itself has a lot of activities, shows, and stores. The first thing I am going to do is set us all up is massages. Force knows we could use it and it can also be a great way to unwind for the rest of the trip." Everyone was starting to get excited for this vacation it has been a very busy few months.
"Master, may I ask of you something for our vacation?" The usually quiet Xalek spoke.
"Of course Xalek." She said. After what Khem's massage conversation this ought to be interesting.
"If we are going to town at some point are there any Kaleesh restaurants by any chance? It has been a long time since I've had any cuisine of my own people and I miss it greatly." Xalek questions. Revala quickly skims through the Asaya travel guide on her terminal.
"Yes, there is Xalek as well as a large number of great restaurants of all types in town as well." She mentioned and was pleased when a rare smile from her apprentice and friend appeared onto his face.
"Thank you master." Xalek said while still smiling.
"The only thing we all got to talk about now is clothes and swimsuits." She says happily and Ashara and her squealed like teenagers, while all men in the room groaned.
'Oh no anything but this, Force please anything but this.' the men all thought with a very dark sense of dread when all of the sudden. Revala and Ashara begin to have a high speed talk about clothes. The men looked at each other in a sad defeated look realizing that this is going to be a long afternoon of girl talk before they can officially get ready for vacation.
