Pariah Dark stood on the command bridge of the Leviathan along with Vlad, Wraith, Dark Laser, and Fright Knight. The Sith Lord had used his powers over Fright Knight to deliver a message to the officers of the other ships that had accompanied the Dagger to planet Taka. Fright Knight had told the officers that the lab facility that had been on the planet was a medical facility that was serving the Empire and that it had been destroyed by a group of crazed Rebel extremist. Pariah Dark then had Fright Knight summon Vid, Download, and Thrash to the Leviathan for a special discussion.
The three elite guards soon arrived on the ship, where they were lured to a private area and soon found themselves surrounded by Pariah Dark, Vlad, Fright Knight, and Wraith. Pariah Dark quickly subdue Vid, Download, and Thrash with the Force and a tiny bit of aid from Vlad and the others, before he subjected the trio to the same process he had used to make Fright Knight his servant. In a matter of minutes the three elite guards were now loyal to Pariah Dark. Vlad and Dark Laser were impressed by the process, while Wraith found it to be a bit disturbing.
Fright Knight and his elite guards were dismissed and sent back to the Dagger to give a false report to the Emperor and Darth Vader.
Pariah Dark then summoned Technus, Spectra, and Bertrand to have a private meeting in Vlad's quarters along with Vlad, Dark Laser, and Wraith to discuss building a new facility to create clones, a plan of action against the Rebels, and a plan to begin conquest of the Amitrax System along with the rest of the galaxy.
"My comrades and followers we have a lot of work ahead of us. We have many enemies from both the Empire and the Rebels to deal with. My power is great as is all of yours, but we need to increase our forces and numbers. To do that we need to create a ship like no one that has ever seen to serve as a mobile base and to create the clone army that we had originally planned to create back in the lab on Taka." Said Pariah Dark.
"Seems logical enough." Said Vlad.
"I can create a clone army, but it will take time to do that with the current amount of pods we have. I could create more pods in time, but first we need a proper facility to setup shop." Said Technus.
"We should have more then one location for the clones to be produced. Just setting up one lab was a mistake. The new cloning labs must be secure at all cost." Said Pariah Dark.
"I believe I have a good military base on planet Casper that should be a ideal location for a cloning lab." Said Vlad.
"Excellent. Do that. Now we need to work on creating a ideal ship to serve as a mobile base and a secure location for another cloning lab." Said Pariah Dark.
Everyone was silent for a few minutes as they thought about what to do. Then Spectra spoke.
"Why not find a large asteroid and turn it into a ship? I hear there are plenty of asteroids that are close to moon and planet size in the Urus Sector."
"A asteroid huh?" Said Pariah Dark in thought.
"Don't you think that something that sizes might be too difficult to turn into a functional ship and base?" Asked Vlad.
"Maybe, but I think we should give it a look first, before we decide on anything." Said Pariah Dark.
"Very well." Said Vlad.
A course was set to the Urus Sector. The Leviathan arrived on the scene and the crew found themselves near a large gases planet with a large assortment of asteroids of various sizes circling it. Pariah Dark stood by the window and studied the asteroids, until his eyes landed on one particular asteroid that caught his eye. Said asteroid was easily the largest one in the ring, nearly being the size of a small planet. It had a glowing green surface and a skull-like formation on its side. Pariah Dark studied the asteroid with a look of awe and surprise.
"Destiny is a funny thing." Said Pariah Dark.
"What do you mean?" Asked Dark Laser.
"That...big asteroid is a part of the planet I once ruled from long ago. Planet Darkra. I had a magnificent castle and temple with legions of followers. After Pandora and her allies slayed me and stole my crown and ring they used their combined Force abilities to strike the core of the planet causing it to self destruct. Now I'm reunited with a chunk of my planet and it shall serve as my lair once again." Said Pariah Dark.
"To turn a asteroid of that size into a ship and base will be a big task." Said Vlad.
"Use all the resources you have at your disposal. Use prisoners and slaves as laborers if you must. This asteroid shall serve as our ultimate base of operations." Said Pariah Dark before he reached out with the Force to the asteroid.
Vlad, Wraith, Dark Laser, and the bridge crew watched in stunned amazement as the asteroid slowly drifted out of the ring around the planet.
"So what will the name of this new base be?" Asked Vlad.
"The Disasteroid." Said Pariah Dark with a smile.
