"The Rising of Evil! With the war as well the separatists distracting the Wild Force as well the Jedi. Lord Evil and his cohorts the Masters have been hiding across the criminal invested outer rims. Beginning to set forth their plan deemed 'Revengance'. Which will somehow involve that of the return Sith apprentice Darth Maul, the home world of the most fiercest warriors Mandalore. As well the dark lord himself who started the Clone wars, Sidious. Though before he can begin his disastrous endeavor to bring about the end of the war, the sinister group now takes route to that of several criminal filled worlds to meet with their respective leaders."
Oba Diah
Traveling across the further stretch's of the outer rims to where both Republic and Separatists weren't in control. A small like ship was heading towards the home world of the Pyke Syndicate, a criminal organization that deals with both spices as well of different types of substances that people would beg for. Arriving upon the gloomy like home world, the ship begun to land right onto the docking station. The buildings as well of the mountains were covered in smoke, several guards noticed the ship landing as well pulled out their blasters. Aiming at the ship, they saw the doors opening. Coming out, it was both Hoodlum as well Outburst. Two members from the Masters of Evil as well considered both stealthy and destructive.
"We're here to see your master."
Hoodlum called out to the guards as they merely spoke in their native language. The villains looked at the aliens pointing the way to a large like building with dark green lights glowing. The two soon walk first heading inside while the guards kept from the back making sure they were ready to shoot them. Heading inside, both men looked around and saw several columns in the room along people laying down on the side. There was a strange type aroma hovering around them as it was one of the pyke's many substances.
"Just like back home, the crime boss's always surrounding himself with a party of women and people giving him money."
The masked shadow man said as both he and Outburst continued their walk, as well passing by several individuals who looked at bliss when they saw the villains. They didn't react but stretched their bodies in a relaxed like manner, the two soon arrived to meet the leader of the Pykes, Lom Pyke.
"My, this is quite the greetings. Two members from the new group the underworld has been hearing about. The masters, right?"
Lom asking them since that ever since Evil as well the others had been moving about in the galaxy, the criminal underworld has gotten word about them. Having being dangerous, unpredictable and above betraying the most powerful of men including that of the separatists.
"Yes, but right now there's a matter of another group slowly rising."
Outburst stated as he pulled out that of a small hologram disc, activating it. It showed that of three men. Two Dathomirian males along of a Mandalorian wearing blue and black armor, the Pyke leader looked at the hologram as he slowly nods at the image.
"Ah yes, the deathwatch group. We've heard about them, as well there so called 'cause' to liberate Mandalore from the duchess. Though those two Jedi, I've never seen before."
Lom explaining how his spies were able to figure out who the armored blonde haired male was, though not the horned men with the red light sabers showing a rage like expression on both of their faces.
"Their not Jedi, their Sith. The type that kills as well are seeking revenge against the Jedi. Along, that their slowly building a group to takeover Mandalore."
Hoodlum telling him as the Pyke merely nodded, as well took a sip from his drink looking at them with a expression of why he should be interested in this matter. The Pyke's stayed out of the affairs of war and worked in their business, making sure that they weren't drag into the conflict.
"And right now, the two Sith are finding men. Organizations such as yourselves to join them, they have several individuals working for them. And we, are here to make sure you join them."
Outburst stating at how the Pykes, would be the next to join this Shadow Collective if there's. Lom, merely chuckled along the rest of his men as they kept their guns trained on both Hoodlum and Outburst not showing any fear in shooting the costumes villains.
"Why should I? The Pykes main business is to settle in the exchange of spices, substances that the galaxy desires. As well the profit we make from it, what can we make out of a alliance with these killers?"
Lom questioning this strange like alliance with Maul and Deathwatch, in which Outburst. Slowly raised his right arm which he was slowly about to grip his fist, about to ignite his fire from out of his gauntlets.
"Because, aligning with them will double your profits seeing as how you will be working with other criminals from the underworld. Especially, that of the Black Sun."
Hoodlum explaining to them as Outburst was ready to ignite the entire room up with they tried anything. Most of the Pykes spoke in that of their native language in a aggressive manner when their rival group's name was brought up.
"You mean those crazed men who only thing with weapons and brains? They will stomp on us the moment they see us, there is no profit in working with those beasts."
Lom telling the two how unlike the Pykes who valued the credits as well extortion of others that they've made business with. The Black Sun worked on only dominating their enemies as well thinking about weapons as well fire power to make them a threat to not be taken lightly. The masked man merely sighs in a annoyed like tone, in which he quickly dissolved into shadow. Heading back to the ship, Outburst was still ready to burn them all. However before he had the chance, Hoodlum returned as well with a crate full of credits they had brought with them.
"Then how the profit from a hutt Evil threaten when we were with Dooku? As well how there is another crate pass the location of Deathwatch if you join them."
Offering them that of a hutt Lord Evil once met as well threaten to join the Separatists, along that he took most of his credits when the masters left the government. Lom, walked over to the crate to see if the credits were real. His light purple eye looking at the solid piece as well how it made a reflection off one of the lights, made him chuckle at how this sounded like a good agreement.
"Very well, the Pykes will offer their support to this. Shadow Collective that is forming, though when it's over. We shall not be staying with them."
Agreeing with the villains suggestion of joining Deathwatch the possible takeover of the planet. As well bringing up at how once the deal was done, the Pykes would abandon the rouge group and leave.
"No crap, because it's going all down hill when the fighting starts. Best to leave it to guys like us right?"
Outburst stating to the Pyke at how there will be a conflict that will grow to the point that the Pyke's would need to escape before it could consume them. The leader, agreed to the terms and offered them drinks. To which the villains refused as they made their leave with the Pykes to prepare to join the collective. Heading back to the ship, Outburst merely growled at the fact he couldn't burn them.
"Can't believe we had to get these spice punks to do this. Even you saw on those people's faces, their weak and about to die at any moment."
The hot headed villain spoke out as he didn't exactly like the sight of both men and women being hooked to the Pyke's substance as well other types of smokes that has led them to being weak and unable to resist. Hoodlum, being that of a criminal as well understand the business. Merely nodded at how even he dislike this assignment.
"It doesn't matter, what does is us making sure we got our job done. Besides, I wouldn't be where Headcase and Igor are right now."
Hoodlum responding back to Outburst's statement of having these people join Maul and the Deathwatch clan. Heading back to their ship, they would soon take off to return back the group while the others are doing their part in convincing several criminal groups to join the group that would be waging a war on Mandalore.
Mustafar
Another ship was flying across the stars heading to that of the volcanic world of Mustafar. To where the Black Sun was at, on the small ship was both Headcase and Igor. As it be there turn to have the members of the Black Sun to join the criminal group, heading to the planet they find that of a docking port for them to land.
"Pretty fire, everything bright."
The muscle beast Igor stated at how the planet was that of rock, lava and volcanos that consumed the planet. Even to himself, Head case was fascinated with the volcanic planet and would love to study it, though there was business to do. They noticed that of a battalion standing outside waiting for them as it seemed they weren't welcome here, landing down right in front of the small group. Both the cyborg and beast leapt out of the ship to meet them, in which one of the men which was a Falleen male who would be the one in charge of the group. Headcase, walked over to him as well looking at him straight in the eyes.
"We require an audience with leaders of the Black Sun."
Headcase announced which had the man chuckling with a sly like tone at how it would be a fatal mistake. Though the two knew what they were were in for, following the man. The guards kept a close eye on the villains not letting them out of their sight. Soon enough they head right inside of the lobby room, where they saw five Falleen men around a table looking at a hologram of territories they were controlling. The leader, at the end of the table noticed the two villains as well merely looked at them with a aggressive like expression.
"Why, have you come here."
The man asked desiring to know of their arrival to Mustafar. Head case, placing his arms around him merely looks at him as well the rest of the members around the table.
"We are here, to convince you of a possible alliance with a group of Mandalorians and Sith. Who plan coming here and to align themselves with you. We wish to offer you something to bargain with."
Explaining how in the return of their service to Maul as well the criminal organization. He would offer them something that the black sun would not have, the men merely glared at him like the metallic being offended them. Igor, turned his head seeing how the guards were preparing their blasters.
"Fools, we are not mercenaries no that of bounty hunters. Dispose of them."
The leader telling his men as several of the guards came up to the two villains.' Igor, merely smiled in a creepy like way not thinking they were in danger, grabbed the two guards and raised them upwards. Slamming them down onto the ground like rag dolls, he throws them against the walls breaking their bodies. Head case, not exactly surprised by this looked at the leader who was still not convinced in this agreement.
"Oh how I hope this would be a easy job. But, leave it the most sensible one to deal with brutes."
Head case stating along of possibly insulting them, not knowing the five leaders. The cyborg had his robotic like tendrils out from his back as well slithering to the men, before any of them could try and shoot them with a blaster they had. Head case lashed his tendrils directly onto their back necks, making them all yell at how a small shock happened.
"You will pay for this!"
The leader shouted as he was going to crush him with his bare hands, however. Before he could, his body as well the others stopped in a strange like manner. Igor, looked over at the frozen members seeing how they weren't moving.
"What you do to pony tail men?"
Igor asked confused like in which Head case's red eyes glowed, to which the five members eye's did so. Moving his right arm, he had complete control over their body as well of their minds due to a device he has made.
"Before coming here I studied on Falleen biology. Their exposed spikes on their backs allowed me to inject a small cybernetic bug into them. Allowing me, to control them."
Explaining what he had done to the Black Sun leaders, though he wasn't explaining it to Igor. He was explaining it to the man that watched the whole event happen, Igor looked at him as well picked up the nervous like Falleen as he brought him to Head case.
"Now then, while I can control you due to how I'm still working out on the bugs. The only thing I can offer you, is a simple memory erase for last couple minutes. You won't remember us, or even seen us. Thank you for letting us be here."
Headcase explaining the situation as he placed a tendrils of his right at the center of the man's head. Scanning his brains as well the cerebral cortex of the brain, he was able to erase the next several minutes that just transpired. The guard was left with a empty expression of not knowing what was happening, which gave Igor the chance to grab Headcase and make a run for it. Holding onto the cyborg, he leapt over the railings as well decided to climb underneath it so the guards don't see them.
"We do good job Headcase?"
Igor asking the cyborg as the green brute was climbing underneath the docking bay as well making sure to not let go. As the two were underneath that of the molten magma, Headcase. Didn't respond as he was making sure that the five leaders would be under his control, as he well how he would be posing as them when the group would be arriving. Heading to the ship, the two villains quickly made their getaway as well heading back to their base. To which there was one last criminal organization that Maul as well Deathwatch would have to go in order to takeover Mandalore, someone who was above both the Pykes and Black sun. Jabba the Hutt.
Tatooine
Heading to the desert planet, Lord Evil as well that of Asajj Ventress who were heading to the planet. In which they prepared to land right at outside of the palace where the Hutt was living in. Getting out of the ship, Ventress looked at the palace as well the bounty hunters heading inside to get the money from the crime boss or possibly be delivered that of his money.
"Now I understand that you got this information of the Deathwatch seeking allies from that of Hoodlums spies. As well of understanding that Hutt is connected to that of the borders they control allowing the Republic to transport their supplies and clones. But that doesn't explain why your wearing that, suit."
Asajj bringing up the information that Evil and the others had collected, along of that now. When they are about to meet one of the most dangerous beings in the galaxy, Evil.
Wanted to meet him in that of a suit with a tie as well a dark purple long sleeve jacket and matching pants. The only thing he had on was his metallic masked to which the man, merely straighten his tie making sure he look ready.
"Because Asajj, if we are to suggest Jabba to pledge his allegiance to that of Maul and Deathwatch. You must look like someone people will listen to, plus. It's been a while since I've been out of my armor."
He spoke to her of how that if they were to convince the Hutt to join with Maul. He would need to look the part of a ally, while still showing a dominate like impression. Ventress, merely had on her normal gear as well her two lightsabers by her waist. The couple make their way to that of the palace where two of the pig guards aimed their axes at them. Ventress, merely waves her hand choking them with the force. Gagging at the sight, both Asajj and Evil make their way into the palace.
Soon enough they saw that of the large green Hutt, as well with watching a show of dancers along being surrounded by his most faithful of bounty hunters. Jabba, on the side notices them as well raises his hand to stop them from playing. Both Evil and Ventress walked up to look at the crime boss, as he soon speaks in Huttenese about why they have come here.
"Mighty Jabba, as you may not know. A certain skirmish had recently resurfaced. A Sith warrior, who he and his brother have being going across the galaxy causing quite the commotion."
Evil spoke out as he activated a hologram showing that of Maul, which showed him killing innocents when he wanted to draw out Obi wan's attention. The Hutt, talks to Evil along of how he heard of the killer along of the masters traveling to criminal organizations in order for them to serve him.
"While it is true we are, adding him and Deathwatch. Our goals are not align to there's, as well yours. Seeing how this could ruin your business with the Republic."
Ventress added on how she knew about Jabba's service to the Republic due to how she was involved with the kidnapping of her son. Jabba, looked at the woman with a rather aggressive look on his face as he heard about a woman when his child was taken. Evil, noticing this stepped in front to try and avoid a conflict between both parties.
"Jabba, let's not try to let our emotions takeover right now. Seeing as how the Sith will try to convince you to join, or kill you in order to take your power. All I offer is advice, for you to take it."
He explained to the Hutt as the large gangster looked at Evil, to which he wasn't messing with him or taking it lightly. Jabba, merely lets out a laugh along the others do so as well. In which he asks him of what he could offer him in exchange for this rather devious ploy into working with Maul and Pre Vizsla. Evil, nodded as well walked up right in front of him as well looked below. Lowering his head to the ground, he heard that of a growling like sound as if Jabba had something in there.
"Entertainment."
Evil answering him to which the Hutt, merely chuckled of how he could entertain him. To which, he soon offers him a chance to do so along see if he could 'convince' him working with the collective. Pressing a button on the side, a trap door appeared right underneath him which sent him down the shoot as well to a cave. Ventress, moving out of the way saw the carpet show a dungeon like room as well everyone gathering to watch the entertainment Evil suggested.
"Don't die down there."
Asajj saying to Evil quietly as the suited villain, soon looked in front of him that of a gate slowly rising up. Evil's eyes looked into what was being held to which was a large brown skin beast, it was large as well had black eyes. It was rancor, letting out a powerful roar it looked at Evil as well drooling for something to eat.
"Growl."
Evil mocking the creature as he saw how the lumbering creature tried to attack him, watching it's arms come at him. The man did a tuck and roll maneuver as well went under it. Noticing the bones on the side, he finds a large one and picks it up. Breaking the top part off, he rushed right to it's leg to stab it's heel. Though the skin was to thick, most of the people above laughed as Evil had no luck.
The creature turned to Evil as well grabs him, Jabba as well the others cheered for the creature about to end the match. While Ventress could have ended it, she saw how Evil was toying with the beast. Seeing how he'd weaken the bone, Evil snaps the piece into two pieces. Evil aims it directly into it's eyes gorging them right out. The rancor, yells in pain and drops Evil to the ground.
Everyone was shocked to see the man blind the creature as it was covering its eyes, Evil took the chance as he takes that of a another bone on the ground. Picking it up and making it into that of a spear, he hurls it directly into the throat of the rancor. Rushing right to the spear, Evil leapt up to the bone piece and pulls it down, causing the bone to open the Rancor's throat. Bleeding out as well screaming in pain, Evil let's go to see the massive creature tumble down to the ground slowly dying. Everyone, was at a complete gasp of how Evil. Who didn't use any powers or that of his so called 'abilities' to kill this monster.
"Show off."
Ventress spoke out as she activated her lightsaber making a hole for the villain. Using the force to lift him up, Evil. Now covered in dirt and Rancor blood, looked at Jabba as the angered Hutt said nothing to him.
"If that demonstrates a reason why you should join Maul and not avoid total death. Then I don't know what will."
He spoke to the Hutt as Jabba, took this moment to think about it. As well nods of how when he would meet Maul and his party, he would agree to join them. Evil, smiled like a friend as well bows his head. Both he and Ventress make their way to the exit, but not before hearing a slave's yell at how she had accidentally spilled a drink. One of the men got up as well was about to hit her, though it was ended with Ventress force choking him to the point she broke his neck.
"Also, one last thing. Please treat your slaves with some decency, otherwise. The next time we come back to see that; I'll personally burn this whole palace to the ground."
Evil stated to the Hutt at while it was good to see he was smart to 'align' himself with Maul. He didn't approve of the women being treated like objects. The two soon left the palace as well return back into their ship as they would head back to the ship, where they would regroup with the rest of the masters.
Back at the masters of evil ship
With all assignments done, each ship return to the location of the main vessel of the Masters. Docking right into the massive ship, the last ones to return was that of Lord Evil and Ventress. Landing aboard their ship, the pair get off as well make their way to the command deck. Where the two saw the rest of the team gathered, as well of Head case who was right now in control of the Black Sun leaders.
"Quiet! We are the black sun!"
Headcase spoke out as on the screen, the others were watching that of Maul as well Pre Vizsla on Mustafar. Along how Savage, activated his lightsaber which he hurls in at them. Soon enough the connection went off making Head case yell at how he felt the burning sensation of the blade upon his cybernetic neck.
"It is done. Both the Pyke's as well that of the Black Sun will be joining them. What of the Hutt?"
He asked both his leader and Ventress as from the sight of their clothing. They have made their point, Hoodlum. Who was getting a drink looked at his leader as he was still possibly against this.
"Evil, while I'm glad to be in a galaxy where everyone is easy to corrupt and afraid off our powers. Why are we helping Maul as well Deathwatch? Wouldn't be more easier to let him do the work than us?"
The masked man asking Evil, to which the metal face villain heard. Nodding to him, press's a button on the center of his belt which showed that of his golden skull belt. It quickly removed his pants to return it to his original look of his armored self.
"It's not helping, it's assisting. So far with how many bodies that both Maul and Deathwatch have dropped. They won't be exactly the type of people that would have friends. So, let the friends come to him. Along, of how we're preparing for the last minute play."
Lord Evil explained as he got his hooded cloak on, to which he presses a button which showed the planet Mandalore. The key world in his grand prize, the planet where he would watch a devastating battle happen. Ventress, crossed her arms seeing how this was going to be quite the event for all of them.
"And how do you know if the Jedi or even those animals the Wild Force won't intervene."
She question him on how with this activity going on, the Jedi as well anyone who stood against them would come to try and intervene in this matter. Evil, merely smiled as he seats down on his chair. Expressing how he was counting on them coming to the planet to try to be heroes. Though in the long run, it wouldn't help or do anything. When they would try to arrive and possibly save the day, it will all come crashing down as well leading to the Evil's as well his fellow masters victory.
Later on Serenno
Right on the home world of the Sith apprentice Count Dooku, the Sith Lord was right now in the middle of having the droid army being place in key area's of the Separatists planets for protection due to how the Republic have been destroying several of their ships. Though as the count was right now focused on the war, he felt a disturbance. That of the uninvited as Dooku quickly got up as well bows his head, to which suddenly at that single moment. Lord Sidious came up in hologram form looking down upon his student who graced his presence.
"My master."
Dooku calling out to Sidious, right now he was thinking about why his master has come. Along the lines of why the sudden arrival? He heard nothing but utter silence, as the hooded Sith Lord looked down to his apprentice as he looked serious.
"There is a darkness rising Dooku, something I had not encountered. As well will test you, in ways you cannot imagine."
Explaining to the count of the disturbance even he had felt, to which had to be that of either Maul who was slowly building up his army. Or Evil, who has been skulking in the shadows biding his time. As well slowly becoming more powerful, ready to make his move. Dooku himself, hadn't see his master this serious after he ordered Asajj's death.
"What will you have me do my lord?"
Dooku asked curious to know what will be the plan if this so called 'darkness' would come passing them. Sidious, merely kept silent thinking about it as well showing a emotionless expression seeing how this will lead to a dangerous conclusion.
"Continue with fighting the Republic as well the Jedi. Know this my loyal one, what happens next. Only the force, will guide us."
Informing the Sith of how the force will be the ones to guide them in the up coming events, Dooku merely nodded as the hologram turns off. The count looked outside of the planet he was on, as well sensing a sudden change. His master's plan had always come there way as well benefit them, though with what has happened. Along his encounter with this unnatural element of the Wild Force, along the Masters of Evil. He would need to be ready for the worst to come, which would be something even he might be able to face.
