The ship jumped out of hyperspace with station Omega in view. Cypher pulled the ship into the newly ripped hole in the station. Droids were already repairing the damage as the ship landed. Cypher climbed out to meet his troops, his black helmet reflecting the hanger lights. He looked them over furiously, they had allowed him to escape. He could strangle all of the weak fools, but he needed them, he had to resist the urge. He turned to the ranking science officer 'How close were you to succeeding?' he probed, his metallic voice full of accusation. He looked at Cypher nervously, 'well, it's difficult to say Master Cypher, but we think they may have done so, the specimen that left was the first successful subject'. 'You are sure?' '… we are confident that they succeeded master, but without analysis we cannot be sure'. Cypher paused before continuing 'how long would it take to recreate the results?'. The scientist stuttered before answering 'master… during the escape all of the senior research staff were killed, and most of the experiment data was destroyed, it would take years, it might even be impossible to recreate the results without the specimen'.
Cypher seethed silently, his rage almost uncontrollable, but he had orders to give. 'Find the subject, bring him back alive, I don't care what methods you use, kill whoever you have to, but bring him back with his body intact'.
One of his troops asked 'Master, I am not sure that it will be possible to bring him back alive, I was present when he escaped, he is very powerful, surely we would be better off re-creating the experiment from scratch?' Cypher walked up to the trooper, towering over him. 'You engaged the subject, yet here you stand?'. '… well, I… he… ' Cypher swiftly pulled his light-saber out and cut the man's head off, the head flew through the air, his body hung suspended for a moment before toppling lifelessly to the ground. Cypher's rage rang throughout the hanger, his voice filled the space station as he loudly stated 'you WILL find the subject, you WILL return him to me… in the event you cannot engage, track him and contact me, and I will personally return him'.
