Taraea was just complaining that the second part was starting to screw up, so her'e where part 3 begins. here's the last set of posts that sort of all go together.

Jeff, RBF, and Void were herded through the jungle by the troops to a hidden fortress in the jungle. The fortress looked as thought it had been there for centuries; a large overgrowth of vines covered the entire structure. As they crossed the threshold into the main atrium, all three could feel a chill run through them, as the place pratically reeked of the dark side. "This looks really bad," said RBF.
Suddenly, they were thrust into a large open throne room. At the front of the room stood a man with a pompous bearing and an ignited, glowing red saber... "I am Darth Kurgan, the new Dark Lord of the Sith (and JK.Net Messageboard Nazi)" he said. "Prepare to meet your doom..."

Suddenly, Wazzit comes up from behind and smacks him in the head with a beer bottle. And Darth Kurgan is now on the floor bleeding in the head. Behind Wazzit is Justin0 and Gonk, who all look pretty dirty, and covered with Ewok blood, but other than that they are fine.
Justin0 looks at the fallen Darth Kurgan, looks back up "So! Who wants to get some lunch??? I hear that the Ewok legs in the crashed Star Destroyer is great!" But just then, Justin0 remembers about the troops surrounding them, and the troops all aim they're blasters at Justin0 . . .

Justin0 quickly fell back into line with the others and shut his trap.
Kurgan got up. "Allow me to introduce you to my assistant. His name is...Matrix."
Matrix stepped out of the shadows.
Kurgan continued. "We are looking for all those who find their games in the Zone. We shall crush them all in a grand tournament."
"However," Matrix explained, "this tournament must be organized by us, and not by and Zone player. It was our idea, so we deserve to control it. And no, I don't care if somebody else has already started the tournament up. The idea is mine mine mine mine mine!"
The heroes looked at each other, rolling their eyes at the immaturity.
Then Kurgan said, "Since you have all come here in such a manner, I am sure that you must be Zone people. Therefore, you shall be the first to die."
Kurgan ignited his lightsaber. "There can be only one!" he screamed as he charged at RBF...

RBF unsheathed the DHS. Kurgan rushed at him, roaring.
At the last minute, RBF stepped to the side and stretched his right leg out.
Kurgan tripped over RBF's leg. The lightsaber, in his sweaty and weak grip, shot out of his hand and buried itself in Kurgan's chest.
Somebody in the auditorium laughed at the 14-year-old power hungry clutz.

Matrix stood in the center of the auditorium yelling. "Nooooooooo! Kurgan is dead! My power is gone!". The odd plotline-ruiner started bawling.
Overhead, the roar of a ship's engine could be heard. Our heroes ran outside, leaving Matrix to his misery, too look at what came up this time.

Sitting on the landing pad was a Corellian Corvette with light blue trimming. Standing beside the craft was a Dark Trooper....

...which fell down immediately, thanks to the mystic powers of Speak's SPORK.
"Come on guys!" Taraea yelled. Let's get out of here!"
Nebula looked down at the Dark Trooper. "You know, I think this is just jonathan in his DT armor."
Speak cursed. "Oops. I always forget about that. Guess I played Dark Forces one too many times. I always think the Dark Trooper is the bad guy. Oh well, it was nice enough of him to come to the rescue. And we might as well take this ship he just brought, considering it's Spice-free."
So the heroes got onto the Corvette, and it lifted off moments later.
"Next stop, Drazen Isle," Jeff said into the intercom.

As our band of intrepid explorers/drunks take off through the atmosphere, everyone seems to be thinking the samething, "This is too easy! What's gonna happen now?" About the time the drunken Sinc finishes this thought (assuming of course that he is still capable of thought) A Tie Sdanced drops out of Hyperspace and lines itself up with the corvette. Strangely enough the piolt hails the them and on the screen appears a Royal Imerial Guard saying, "Hello, My name is Cho'Koth. I have defected from the Empire because I have been found to be force sensitive, and the current Emporer has issued yet another bounty on all force sensitive beings. I have followed your presences hear and wish to join with you, but we must make this quick, I stole this ship from the Empire, and they are very anxious to get it back. Will you let me join you?"
Jeff looks around, Void looks at him and says "NO WAY! Anyone can see this plot twist, he's an Imperial Guard! Those boys wouldn't EVER turn on the Emperor! You can't let him in here!"
Jeff says, "You're right," Turning to the screen he says "Cho'Koth, you will fly to the coordinates I'm sending to you now, and we will fly behind you, if you so much and deter a quater of a meter, we'll blow you to bits, same goes if you send out any communique, and we have Jedi here, so we'll know if you use the force!"
Cho'Koth looks frustrated (Even in his Armor) "FINE! We have to go though! The Empire will be here any moment, I'll take the lead!"
Both ships turn, dissapear into hyperspace when behind them an Indictor class star destroyer drops out of hyperspace, "We seem to have just missed them sir!" Say one of the officers on the bridge. The captain looks nervous "Then find out where they went, and follow them, if we let anyone get ahold of the Tie fighter, the Emporer will kill each and everyone of us personally!"

Meanwhile...

...meanwhile the undead warrior formerly known as phantasm, searches for the meaning of life or death. he is hell-bent on destrotying the now undead msg board nazi kurgan but realizes that his pathetic skills with cows are no match for the power of the nazi.

searching for help he stumbles upon the canitna cloud on drazen isle. unfortunately it was empty at the time. "curses," he mutters. "my whole exsistance has been nothing but problems. but wait, maybe..."

the renegade ship drew closer to drazen isle and freedom once again. but suddenly space is filled with a glowing red light. and the heroes heard a voice. "ahahah, i have power beyond your wildest dreams!" it was kurgan the msg board nazi back from the grave!

as kurgan's illuminous form grew closer to the ships, another voice boomed "kurgan i am here to destroy you" "what the fŽŽŽ? you have no power compared to mine" "yes kurgan, i do." it was the undead warrior formerly known as phantasm. "kurgan, i have the power of all the posts you closed or deleted for no reason." "oh no!" gasped kurgan. and with that the undead warrior released an unimaginable amount of power agaisnt kurgan. the nazi was crushed my the blow and was the wiped completely out of exsistance. and justice was served for all those who had been silenced my the nazi.

everyone thought that all was well, but then suddenly...

Gonk mans the upper turret on the Corvette. Justin0, after having saved Wazzit's pitiful life, is allowed to take the lower turret. Wazzit is in the lounge with Sinc, Void, and RBF. Sinc is , yet again, drunk and hitting on inanimate objects. Neb, Jeff, Speak, Taraea and the dead body of Jon C are in the cockpit. Cho'Koth is flying ahead in his fighter.

As the ships exit hyperspace, they see a strange man in the middle of Drazen Isle, swinging a half-empty bottle of O'Douls like a lightsaber, and chattering about his cows and killing off Kurgan. "Yippee, good 'ol Drazen.", Neb says sarcastically.

Wazzit heads over to the drunk. "Man! You're only drinking O'Douls and you're drunk?!?!? That is sad. Lemme' introduce you to the amazing world of Drazen Cafe's Bar!", he says, walking off with the drunk, who says his name is phantasm.

Cho'Koth lands the fighter and walks over to Neb, RBF, Void, Taraea, and the dead body of Jon C.

Just then...

...Speaker4theDead watches Jonathan C. get up.
Everybody realizes that Speaker4theDead didn't have autherization to kill him.
So, because Jon is, once again, not allowed to kill the jerk, he carefully dismembers Speaker and tosses his components into a pool of bacta.
Jonathan washes off his hands and turns on the electrical current going into the bacta tank.

Speaker screamed once, and somebody shut off the electrical current.
Jon walked back over to where the group was.
"It took us an entire three weeks, but myself, and the technologically-inclined people who remained here managed to pull the Storm Runner ashore and rebuild her forward three compartments." he said. "We also found Pax's body, which, through some miracle in the Force, still showed some biological activity. We sent him off to Coruscant for medical treatment."
"Good to hear. Now what about Speak?" Nebula asked.
"Ah... him. Well, seeing as how he hasn't read several of the Star Wars books, I say we reassemble him and lock him in the book store." Jon replied.

"Yes... he disobeyed the rules... we must punish him...." said Gonk.
And, so, a week later, our heroes managed to put Speaker back together (yes, his hand is supposed to be attached there....), and they locked him in the bookstore.

[Jonathan C recommends you all read the rules before you post]

With everyone seeming to be happily living ever after on Drazen Isle, (If I read right.) nothing bad could possibly go wrong. But wait, there is... on thing. With the force of an angry old fogey trying to return soup at a deli, the evil Pug Dog arose from beneath the ground, not as a man, but as a huge...

Dog.


***mild insert here that's a little out of order, but for a good reason...let's back up a minute. I NEVER killed Jonathan. I just said he fell down due to the mystic powers of the SPORK. I don't hold anything against you jonathan. i did that thing earlier when you tried to pull out of the plot as written, but that was just to keep things straight. i actually liked the touch with you respawning on drazen. quite nice. just wanted to get that out. besides, the mystic SPORK, for those who don't know (because I just decided to reveal this, can't kill a good guy. it's a rule. so it couldn't have killed jon. now, back to the story, but covering up that little loophole***

Jonathan woke up from this pleasant (for him, since he seems to hold a grudge against Speak) dream. He looked around. There was Speak.
"Hey Jon, are you OK? I know the mystic SPORK can pack a mean punch. Didn't mean to hurt you. Maybe you should think about putting clear markings on that thing so I know it's you. No hard feelings?"

And now back to right after the evil Pug Dog rising as a giant Dog, not a man.

"No hard feelings." he slurred, "...but now there's a big mark.". True enough, there was a massive slash down the front of his armor, from his nick to mid-chest. Jonathan groaned. He stood up and activated the armor release.

Several pieces of his armor clattered to the ground. The other sections slid apart, and Jonathan stepped down onto the street.
"Great. It's ruined... I'm gonna have to sell those sporks in my store... handy little things."

"Why do I smell wet dog?" Jonathan wondered out loud.
He turned around to see a gigantic canine sitting on the beach wimpering. Across from him was Nebula, weilding a water pistol.

"Bad dog." he said.
The dog whimpered again.

Momentarily ignoring the evil puppy, Jonathan inspects the damage done to his armor.
"Severed the electrical cable leading to the helmet and the right arm. It punctured the life support system and cut halfway through the Central Processing Unit. Aside from not being able to move, not being able to shoot, and not being able to breathe, there's this four-foot long gash slicing all the way through the armor. If I wasn't wearing that, it'd be me with all this damage..." Jonathan complained to Speak.

"Really sorry about the damage... but I've got a disobedient puppy to deal with..." Speak replied, walking in Nebula's direction.

Meanwhile, in the Drazen Isle communication center, the officer on duty recieves a message from Coruscant.
This officer just happens to be Joe Mannix, who drops the message in the inbox, also commonly reffered to as the garbage can.
The JK janitor waits until everybody's back is turned, then rushes into the room and takes away the garbage can.

But, unknown to all of our heroes, the message from Coruscant read as follows:

[What kind of joke is this, sending dead body to our medical center. Now we're all infested with sea-worms!

***since i think jonathan is getting impatient for somebody else to write something, i might as well fill in =)***

Speak walked toward the evil pug dog. "Now, puppy, if you promise to be good, i'll give you this biscuit," Speak said as he waved his SPORK. Out of thin air appeared the largest dog biscuit known to man and trandoshan alike.
Amazingly enough, Pug sat back on his haunches obediently, panting impatiently for the delightful treat.
"There's a good puppy," Speak said as he gave it the tasty biscuit. Speak looked at its collar. "Pug, huh? I like it. You wanna stay with me Pug?"
Pug barked playfully.
"Good boy! Well, it would appear that this crisis has been averted."
Things were looking just peachy when some totally random and pretty much uncalled for (but fun to write about!) event occurred. It was...

UgVader! Somehow the little ugnaugt had followed everyone from Cloud City, to Drazen, on and off a Imperial Star Destroyer, through the spice mines of kessel, off a jungle world and finnally through a horrifying conversation with Kurgan *gasp*.

Anyhow, so the little ugnuaght (hope i'm spelling it right) walked up to Jeff and said...

"You really suck! Did you know that?", said the short little guy,"I mean, I haven't been in this thread since there was a main character!"

Upon hearing this critisism, Jeff picks up his mighty napkin holder, and proceeds to pound the ugnaught's little head in.

"Die you critical little bastard!!! No one criticizes the mighty Jeff Walters!!!! DIE!!!!", Jeff screamed as he mutilated the furry pain in the @$$.

Jeff didn't stop hitting UgVader until Neb cam up and literally ripped the napkin holder from his hands. "Calm down Jeff!", Neb yelled as he pulled Jeff away from the mauled body of UgVader.

For apparently no reason at all (mostly because Gonk doesn't know where the hell we all are right now), everyone saw something strange, and frightening...

Wazzit then falls onto the beach sand floor, and lands on his back. Wazzit stands up, takes at bottle of whiskey and gulps it down. Wazzit looks around his surroundings, all has been pretty quiet the past few days, besides that DarthUggy thing he triped on. Wazzit looks up at the sky, and notices a big moon. "Hey, I didn't know we had a moon orbiting us . . ." Wazzit thinks outloud. Wazzit then realizes they don't! And also realizes that Kevin J. Anderson must still be alive and has somehow wrote a 4th Death Star in this story! Wazzit looks up at the Death Star once again, and takes a sip of his whiskey. "Damn" . . .

Our group of heroes are startled by the arrival of a beat-up brown station wagon. Unfortunately, the station wagon doesn't stop and collides with BA, sending him flying through the air.

"Oh, great," said RBF, watching BA sail towards Jeff. "Jeff!" Jeff turned just in time to see BA before he knocked him to the ground. The group surrounded BA and Jeff, checking to see if they were alright.

Entropy stepped out of the station wagon. "Oops," he said. "Sorry." BA stood up, talking in a voice that wasn't quite his own.

"Well, that was fun. Painful, too." He closed his eyes, and at that point KJA suffered a fatal heart attack. The Death Star disappeared, and there was much rejoicing.

"Yay!" everyone said at once.

"Ah, much better. No more KJA, no more Death Stars, no more Time Winters, no more vampires, and no more of that small, pathetic child." BA said, opening his eyes. "Head trauma can do wonders for your abilities." He looked towards Drazen, and it was suddenly rebuilt. "I'm enjoying this. Omnipotency, vast mental capabilities. Why, I've even figured out the meaning of life."

Our heroes awaited BA's next words, but he just looked at them. "What?" he said, walking towards the city. "Oh, you want to know the meaning of life? Well, you see-" he wandered into the path of a (conveniently) oncoming speeder, which sent him flying in a much similar fashion back into Jeff. Once again, our heroes surrounded him, only to find him back to normal BA, not remembering anything he just did.

***

Our heroes returned to the Drazen Cafe, and once began to discuss their current situation.

"So you're saying I took the events of the story, eliminated the overused ones, and pretty much set the story in a whole new direction?" BA asked.

"Pretty much," Entropy said, turning a rather large magnet around in his hands.

"You know what we haven't had in a long while?" RBF said, pulling out his stapler. "A good bar fight." With that, he jumped out of his seat, sending the table flying across the room and into Taraea.

"Ag!" Taraea cried as the table hit her in the face. "That hurt!" She picked the table up above her head and threw it at RBF, who ducked. The table flew over his head and right into Entropy.

"Ouch! Hey! You made me drop my mag-oh great, it's stuck AGAIN!" Entropy began shooting randomly with his blaster rifle.

The battle continued, with RBF pulling off amazing feats of skill and bizarreness, Entropy constantly screaming about the magnet, Jeff bashing people with his napkin holder, Gonk getting tipped over and getting himself right side up, then getting tipped over again, and everyone generally participating in whatever activity they usually do.

The fighting stopped when the door swung open, and everyone heard a whip crack. The looked at the figure in the doorway, wearing a fedora hat.

"I thought we killed Han," Void said, puzzled.

"That's not Han," said Nebula. "That's-"

"Indiana Jones. I need help," the man said....

Entropy leans over to BA and whisper in his ear "I have a bad feeling about this guy..."

BA replies "Why's that?"

"cause i used to have this science teacher that went to the rain forrest all the time during vacation, and he dressed just like that. well a few years later we found out his real reason for going down there when the narcs came to school to haul him away..."

Just at that momment a group of soldiers burst through the rear entrance. "Hiel Sut!" they shouted

From behind them walks a man in a brown uniform with an arm band containing a swastika. The man was the spitting image of kurgan, if it weren't for that stupid little mustache he wore.

RBF looks confused "Didn't i accidentally kill you?"

"Shut up you moron" the leadewr that looked just like kurgan said in a heavy german accent, the kind you'd hear from some kind of egotistic over actor. It sounded fake, almost as fake as the mustache looked. "So Indy, we meet again... Now tell me, where did you hide the emerald ruby of king siscatchuan of the setting sun? I must posses this artifact!"

"I'll never tell you!" Indy replied curtly

At this same moment Entropy notices a large dump truck backing up to the cantina's window "Hmmm... that's odd..."

"I have ways of making you talk" the officer in charge replies. He then blows on a sharp whistle, and quickly exits from the rear of the cantina.

At that moment the dump truck smashes the window and starts pouring it's contents into the cantina. Snakes, lot and lots of snakes...

"Ah!" Indy screamed like a school girl. "Insert usual quote here!"

"Oh great," Acinonyx groaned. "Hey, Jeff, where's the snake bit kit?"

The snakes poured across the floor, hissing and biting everything in sight. Void jumped up in the air, flying above the writhing mass. "Come on guys, let's get out of here!" The others nodded and agreement and high tailed it out of the Cantina.

"Great, first dingos, and now snakes," Jeff said as he pulled his hair out.

"Someone get these off of me," Jon whined, his super DT armor immobolized by the huge amount of snakes latched on.

"Hey baby," Sinc staggered up to Taraea. "Need me to suck anything?"

"Ha, silly General Von Kurganstein," Indy laughed. "He filled your bar with garden snakes!"

"Silly, eh, Herr Jones," the alternate universe Nazi Kurgan person said as he and a squad of SS came around the side of the bar. "Now, this is the part where you give me what I want, ja?"

Indy scratched his head and look at the nazi kurgan with a dumbfounded look on his face. "What are you talking about?"

"The emerald ruby of king siscatchuan of the setting sun. Don't play stupid with me indy, i know you hid it in this dump and have returned to retrieve it. now where is it hidden?"

All the while Entropy sits in the corner entertaining the childish menatlity that makes up so much of his life. "Tee hee, these snakes will make great pets... OOOOO.... Shiny..........." Entropy is then distracted when he looks up and notice a red and green sparkle center piece on one of the tables in the back of the cantina. He slowly walks over to the centerpiece like a zombie ignoring everything else that is going on around him. Fasinated by the object he picks it up and starts to carress it.

"Look sir! He has it!" One of the SS says, pointing at entropy.

The Nazi Kurgan spins around and screams at the SS "GET HIM!"

The ss surround entropy, pick him up, and stuff him in a brown sack. They then quickly run outthe back of the cantina, with the nazi kurgan on there heels.

"Ha HA! I prevail aagin!" Kurgan yells back

"Hmmm... looks like Entropy has written himself out of the story again, think we should go rescue him or something?" Rbf asks?

"Nah.. He'll find a way back... God knows he always does. He always does..." Ba says

"Well, I'd like to stay and chat, but I need to...um...put on a change of pants... Damn I hate snakes. Later guys." Indy says as leaving the cantina.

"Maybe we should go help him," Jeff said. The group ran out of the cantina after Entropy and Nazi Kurgan.

Kurgan lept at Entropy, sending him crashing to the ground. He grabbed the jewel out of Ent's hands, and lifted it above his head.

"Now it's mine!!! All the power of the ruby is mine!!"

Suddenly the sky grew black. Lightning crackled through the dark clouds, as the very water itself appeared to grow darker. Kurgan grew to three times his original size. Power coursed over his body, as he threw his head back and let out a insane burst of evil laughter.

"What the hell happened to him?!" Void yelled as the group of cantina patrons arrived, just in time to see Kurgan's transformation."

"I don't know," RBF said, "but it can't be good."

Kurgan looked down at the group as they sprang to attack him. He threw blasts of raw energy down at them. The blasts hit them, and they had survived, but they were now trapped to the ground by chains of pure energy.

"HAHAHAHA!" Kurgan laughed evilly, "Now no one can stop me! I shall rule Drazen, I shall rule--"

Suddenly the clouds parted, and an intense beam of light shined down on Kurgan.

"Is it--?" Void said, trapped to the ground.

"No," RBF said, "It's just Trail and Aristotle.

"KURGAN!" Aristotle's booming voice yelled down from the clouds, "YOU HAVE BEEN ABUSING YOUR POWER AGAIN, HAVEN'T YOU?"

"N-n-no," Kurgan stammered nervously, "These people were insulting me, they were making fun of me, they were--"

"WE SAW EVERYTHING," Trail said in a voice louder than Aristotle's, "WE HAVE NO CHOICE
BUT TO STRIP YOU OF YOUR POWERS!"

"No, NO!" Kurgan yelled, "Wait, stop!"

A brilliant beam of red light shot down from the clouds, striking Kurgan. It seemed to suck the energy out of him. He began growing smaller and smaller, until finally the beam released him. The light dissappeared, the sky was bright again, and the water calmed.

As the bonds of energy that had imprisoned the cantina patrons dissolved, they got up to look at Kurgan. He had shrunked down past even his original state. A full foot shorter, the once great overlord stood frail and shrivled.

"Guys, guys," he said in a weak nervous voice, "I-I was just kidding about all that 'taking over Drazen' stuff, you knew that right? Right? Guys? AHHHHH!!!!"

(as originally posted by Void Dragon, but something really #$^%#$^ weird happened and my post replaced his...)

That menace taken care of, the Patrons went back to the Cantina to return to the bar fight they were so suddenly interrupt in the middle of.

Just then, a delivery boy came through the door of the bar. "There's a delivery here for Jonathon Clark?" he announced meekly.

"Jon's not here right now," Jeff told the guy. "But you can leave it here and we'll make sure he gets it."

"Oh," the delivery boy said naively. "Ok, thanks!" The cantina patrons waited until he had left, then pounced on the large box, ripping the front panel off to reveal...

the rotting corpse of Pax!

"Ok, this is definitely new. We've never gotten a corpse before," RBF said. "And I don't even want to think why Jon would be having it sent to him." As RBF spoke, something strange happened. Pax's corpse sat up. (I've got permission to do this!)

"Uhm, I thought no more vampires" Taraea said. RBF, reacting to the site of a moving corpse, stuck the DHS right into CorpsePax's heart. Pax looked at him, then at the DHS, then pulled it out and handed it to RBF.

"Nonvampire. Zombie," RBF said. "See the decay? It was stopped, but not like a vampire would. Plus there's that whole thing where he didn't burst into a cloud of dust, just has that hole in the middle of his chest."

The group of patrons had backed away from Pax, leaving RBF to examine and explain the occurence. "Uhm...." RBF said, looking over Pax. "Are you by any chance hungry? For like, brains?"

"No, thankfully. I'd probably starve here if I was," Pax replied. "Now will you please stop staring at me?" RBF looked behind the corpse to see an army of bugs heading towards ZombiePax, looking to speed up his decaying process.....

Jonathan waltzed into the room, conveniently stepping on the bugs on the way in. The patrons noted the fact that his armor was destroyed when it was gashed apart by a spork, finally.
"Hmm..." Jonathan said thoughtfully, "looks like Coruscant shipped back Pax. I shouldn't have put my name with the return address..."

"No, you shouldn't have," ZombiePax moaned, as he grabbed onto Jon's unarmored body and sunk a fist into his stomach. The bloody hand emerged with the severed colon of Jon, and ZombiePax yanked on it, bringing Jon's guts spilling out onto the floor. "Join me, in Zombie-hood!"

Jon groaned and collapsed on the floor. He'll have to wait for a few posts before he comes back as a zombie. Meanwhile, Pax reached over and grabbed his own left arm, then ripped it out of it's socket and wielded it like a club. He turned toward the horrified Cantina patrons and grinned an evil gap-toothed grin.

"Uh," Void stammered. "Are we supposed to kill him or what?"

"Yes, let's," RBF shouted bravely. He charged forward with an axe, but ZombiePax ducked his swing and clubbed him with his rotting left arm. As RBF fell, Void swooped in, smashing ZombiePax's head off with his sledgehammer. The head flew through the air, bouncing off the of-late silent Inanimate Dartboard, before rolling to a stop next to Taraea. She screamed and jumped away as the head tried to bite her. She backed away, snatching Void's sledge hammer away, then swung down at the rampant head, smashing it through the floor.

Meanwhile, Acinoynx was busy dismembering the still twitching body with his slicer rifle. "Die, old buddy, die!"

Just then, Jon's disembowled corpse rose to it's feet...

RBF stood up, facing off the corpse of Jon. "You know what?" The zombie looked at him.
"Your stomach is open." He kicked Zombie Jon in the head, which easily detached and flew across the room. The body staggered towards RBF, who grabbed Wazzit's ever-present bottle of beer, smashed it over the zombie, and lit it on fire.

"Ooo...pretty," said Wazzit, whose head promptly hit the table. RBF watched the body burn to a crisp.

"DIE DIE DIE!" screameed Acinonyx, shooting the incredibly dismembered corpse of ZombiePax with his slicer rifle.

"Uh...RBF?" Void called. "How do you kill a zombie?"

"Usually burning, but I think you can smash it into a bloody pulp and throw it in a river. Should keep it out of the way."

"So slicing it up would be a bad thing?" Void called, as he watched Acinonyx create lots of little zombie pieces.

"Generally, yes," RBF said, placing the head of ZombieJon into a jar. He set the head on one of the few right-side-up tables. "Hopefully someone will give him a body," he thought. He walked over to Void, who was trying to pull Acinonyx's gun away. Jeff began beating him over the head with his napkin holder. Finally, he slumped to the floor, unconscious.

"Guys," said Taraea. "Those pieces of Pax are kinda....

Coming to life. Each body part has become it's own zombie. They quickly smother Acinonyx's unconmcious body like some many ants to a sugar cube.

"RBF, you said you have to burn this little SOB's, eh?" Entropy asks

"Yes" RBF replies

Entropy grins. "One of the many perks to having a roommate that's goal is to transfer to bartendering school when he turns 21 is you learn all kinda of neat mixtures."

Entropy dives behind the bar and grabs a punch bowl and starts adding all kinds of alcoholic beverages. "HEY! Zombie pieces!" Entropy yells. For brief instant the zombies attention is focused on Entropy as he hurls the contents of punch bowl at them. Once enough of the mixture comes into contact with air it turns into a huge fire ball that engulfs all the zombies and, unfortunatly, Acinonyx to...

While Acinonyx and the Paxlets are burning to a crisp, the severed corpse of Jonathan, him being force-strong, disappears into thin air.
He respawns outside with a bucket of water. Stepping in through the smoke-filled doorway, he hurls the bucket's contents at Acinonyx, putting out the, most likely, painful blaze.
Several bits of Pax squirm around for a few seconds, and then lay still.

Meanwhie, as our heroes switched to the correct tense, Acinonyx (for burns), RBF(for a concussion), and Wazzit (for alcohol poisoning) were sent to the hospital for some bacta therapy, while everyone else was stuck cleaning up the Kibbles-and-Pax.

"What a way to go... again," Void said as he swept the well-done chunks into the hole Taraea made in the floor.

"At least my mess disappeared," Jon mumbled as he mopped the blood off the wall.

"Hey, wait a minute," Taraea suddenly spoke up. "Why didn't Pax's parts disappear, too?"

"A puzzle," Jeff said. "Also, did anyone notice that Pax seemed to be fully... er... organic, as in, no cybernetic parts?"

That stumper left the cantina silent as they cleaned. And then, suddenly, the Cantina door slammed open, and who should step in but Jeffrey, AKA Aragorn, AKA the Runt! "Hi guys!" he grinned as he burst inside. "Gimme a Coke!"

Then Kyle put out his bong.. he realized
the damage it was doing to his brilliant
mind.

Oh well... back to the bottle. Good old
crystal clear carbonated goodness from
Canada (wherever that was).

Kyle pondered the strange events he
had witnessed in his trippin' out state.

What were all those folks doing with
bottles and sporks and dead bodies and stuff?

Ah yes... Rahn had warned him that stuff
would happen if he kept on toking on his
reefer.

Lessons learned.. oh well.

Darn that Jabba the Hutt...

Kyle remembered his old drinking buddy
Jabba.. that man had gotten him hooked
on the stuff. It wasn't until Jabba
kidnapped Jan, that the slug had shown
his true colors.


Jabba was dead now.. and nothing else could
change that..


Suddenly out of the shadows.. a familiar
laugh started to echo.

A cold sweat broke out on Kyle's face.
He remembered tales of the lost clone
labs that were not destroyed by the
New Republic.. the cloned emporer..
the cloned Luke.. oh no..!
It can't be!

**Ok, so completely ignoring that last post, we continue onwards.**

Entropy hands Jeffery, AKA Aragon, AKA Runt, (long name? I think so!) his coke and rejoins the Paxlet burying group. Jeffery waddles over after finishing his coke. "Hey, what's with all the little Pax-pieces?", he asks.

"It's a long story.", says Taraea.

Just then Neb walks into the cantina, looking around he says, "Man guys! I thought I told you to keep this place clean! We DO have actual customers in here every so often, you know!"

"Sorry Neb.", mutters Void,"But you see, we kinda' had to save the whole of Drazen from ZombiePax, and ZombieJon, you know?"

Neb frowns. "I don't care who had a good day or not! Now clean this place up!", he yells.

Everyone gets to work, Void cleaning innards off the tables, Taerea cleans the chairs, and Entropy cleans the counters. Gonk gets to clean the gib laden floor, and Justin0 (who mysteriously disappeared a few posts back) has to clean the toilets with his teeth.

Neb stands back and orders everyone around.

then stepped out from behind the huge

The bloated slimy worm cleared his throat:

"Well, that was just nice," RBF said. "Why'd you have to kill him? He wasn't THAT annoying. And let's try to stay in tense, people. PAST TENSE!" RBF picked up the pieces of Aragorn and handed them to Entropy. "Fix him," he said.

"Why me?" asked Entropy, staring at the bisected corpse.

"Because you wanted to be in the story. And besides, he's technically another poster, and we can't kill him off," Entropy headed into the back room, then reappeared, taking several of the bottles from behind the bar back into the room with him.

"Ok," said RBF. "Five, four, three, two, one-" he was cut of by a large crashing sound out back. "As always, another situation for us to get into." Our heroes headed out through the back door to find a rather large box.

"Why is it that stuff is always falling at us? Why-" Void was cut off with a safe falling on his head, knocking him unconscious.

"Someone take him to Entropy," said RBF, mentioning him once again. "Now, about this box," he pressed a button on the side, and the top popped open. Out jumped a giant green frog, about the size of a station wagon. "We have very odd writers," RBF said.....

...just as the frog turned to RBF and croaked, "Sh'up, I pity da foo dat makes fun of da writas, sucka." Smelling froglegs, the gigantic Pug-Dog suddenly squeezed into the back alley, then proceeded to chase the station-wagon sized Frog away.

"Ok, well that's taken care of," RBF mumbled. "Now what?"

"How about we make our own trouble for once," Cho'Koth suggested, "And find out where these falling objects are coming from?"

"I don't like him," RBF whispered to Entropy. "He makes too much sense."

"Hey, wait a minute," Jeff said, looking over at RBF. "When did you get back from the hospital? You, BA and Wazzit are supposed to be there recuperating..."

"Err, shut up!" RBF snapped. "I just came back. It was only a bruise."

"Uh, uh, uh," Neb said, waving his finger at RBF. "You can't lie to Jedi."

RBF glared at them all in paranoia for a moment, then suddenly pulled out the DHS - or at least an amazing replica of it - and charged our heroes. Totally caught by surprise, they had no choice but to...

Beat the fool to a bloody pulp. He lacked RBF's fighting skills and razor sharp wit, so it wasn't much of a challenge to the heroes.

Everyone (carrying the bloody pulp of the pseudo-RBF with them) arrived at the hospital to find RBF walking out the front door with a bandage wrapped around his head.

"Oh great. Clones again?" asked RBF, looking at the bloody pulp of himself. "What is it with falling things and clones?"

"Well," the bloody pulp said. "If you suck at writing like all these authors do, you end up bringing the same things in over and over again, whether it's repeatedly writing novels with death stars or bringing another set of clones into the story."

"Uh huh. Long winded, I see," RBF said. "Void, sledgehammer." Void handed it to him, and he proceeded to grind the bloody pulp into a sticky paste (he had been dropped on the ground, BTW). He then scooped the paste up and put it in a jar (Which are ever-so-plentiful here on Drazen). He then threw the jar to Entropy, who then walked up behind himself, with Aragorn at his side. Aragorn had rather sloppily done stitches running from his right shoulder to his left hip.

Our crew, realizing that there was another clone in their midst, repeated the process on the fake Entropy, now leaving us with the real RBF and Entropy, and the talking smashed up ones that are in the jar, which should provide us for some interesting events.

They headed back to the cantina, placing the jars on a shelf beside the Inanimate Dart Board, and the three began having a conversation. Meanwhile, Acinonyx and Wazzit returned from the hospital. The bar fight began once again, when...

Just then, a group of Ewoks came strolling into the bar, apparently unaware of how most of the cantina regulars feel about Ewoks... Big mistake for them. The Ewok in the lead walked right up to Speak and smacked him on the head with his staff, and said "E cha wubba!" Speak immediately yelled "look, fresh meat!" to everyone and gutted the Ewok who smacked him on the head with his spork. All the rest of the cantina patrons who were involved in the bar fight immediately went after the remaining Ewoks, who, realizing that they were in danger, took off down the street. The cantina crew spilled out into the street, momentarily disoriented because most of them were either drunk or seeing stars from being pummeled about the head and shoulders in the bar fight. They all started looking around to see where the Ewoks had gone. "There they go!", shouted JCBoath, pointing in the direction of Jonathan C's weapons shop. The Ewoks were rounding the corner of Jon C's shop to try to hide in the back...

"What the heck are Ewoks doing on Drazen, anyway?", said Nebula. As they rounded the corner of Jon C's shop in pursuit of the Ewoks, Nebula's question was answered, as...

As the cantina patrons were running through the streets of Drazen, flailing wildly and screaming at the top of their lungs, Gonk remembered something he saw back at Neb's place. He somehow steers the running, screaming, generally incomprehensible group towards Neb's house. When they reached the house, Neb opens the back door, and heads down to the basement. He emerges a few moments later with his hand full of high powered, death dealing, gib producing, generally fun guns! "Let's kick some Ewok butt!", Wazzit yells, as he starts firing wildly, and blows the roof off "The Jedi's Robe".

"OH MY GOD!!! WHAT ARE WE GONNA' DO?!?!? THEY'LL CAPTURE US AND POKE US WITH REALLY LONG STICKS, AND THEY MAY EVEN EAT US!!!!!!",
screams Justin0, as he stands in a corner.

Everyone stares at him. "You can stop blubbering now you pitiful fool, we've got BIG guns now.", yells Void.

Gonk slaps Justin upside the head as several hundred short, fat, annoying, and generally pains in the arse (aka Ewoks) round the corner. (They can't catch up to us with their short little stubby legs!)

Our heroes held their big-@$$ guns at the ready as the Ewok mob closed in. At the sight of the heavily armed cantina patrons, the Ewok's beady little eyes widened in terror, the mob grinding to a halt. BAGs where aimed, and triggers were pressed and then...

...nothing happened.

"What the?" Void said in confusion as he shook the gun. "Where's the earth shattering ka-boom?"

Nebula unscrewed the end of the gun, letting a pair of Everlast(TM) batteries fall into his hand. "Curse you Energizer Bunny!" the miffed Trandoshan shouted.

"New idea!" Gonk gonked. "I'm a big freaking battery, plug your guns into me!"

The patrons all looked at each other, then Gonk, and then the mob of Ewoks waiting patiently by for them to take action. "Ok," Neb said, "let's do it!"

As one, our heroes pulled the extention cords from the rear of their BAGs, lifted up a panel on Gonk, and jammed the plugs into the power droid's side.

"Now, where were we?" Void said.

"Kill the Ewoks!"

"1," Void counted.
"2," RBF brought in.

"Ka-boom!" the guns went. It wasn't quite earth-shattering, but damn was it close.
Bloody Ewok bits rained over our heroes.
"Well, that was fun," Neb said.
Everybody was patting each other on the back, when suddenly, Speak screamed.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Everybody was puzzled.
"I think Gonk got fried! We used up so much power that he overheated! I think he's dead!"
"Umm, Speak...," Neb said.
"Yeah?"
"He's a droid. We can fix his wiring, and charge him up again, and he's good as new."
"But what if his memory chips got fried? Then he won't be the same old Gonk. I loved that little power droid. Did you know that some people even worship him?"
"That's not important now. Don't worry. We've got some of the best droid specialists in the galaxy here on Drazen. If they can't take care of him, no one can."
"Oh, ok," Speak said sullenly.
Pug came up to Speak and have him a big lick on the cheek. His breath smelled a bit like frogs, but Speak didn't mind, as he could use the comfort.
"Just make sure they take good care of him," Speak said as they pulled Gonk out to the closest droid repair shop.

As the noble, yet silly, Knights of departed from the homely establishment of Mel's Fix-it-all Repair shop (where they had deposited their portly pal, Gonk) to grab a drink at the Cantina, a truly earth shattering Ka-Boom shook the already damaged city to its core. As some fell to the ground others turned to see what had happened. Indeed, Mel's Fi-it-all repair shop was no more. The Ka-boom had receeded and now a whistling sound was heard. The brave Knights looked up to see Gonk careening toward them at a fantastic speed. He landed head first with a thud. An angry Speak ran to his side and yelled, "NOOOO! They blew him up. Gosh Darn it, they Blew him up!" Neb stood boldly and proclaimed, "Fear not, Speak. As God is my witness, we will get revenge for this. We will kill every last one of them behind this or choke their rivers with our dead. We'll get them for killing Gonk."
"Actually, he's not quite dead, Neb." Said RBF.
"Oh. Well, we get them for mortally wounding Gonk."

"Alright, I'm sick of this pain in the butt.", Neb said, igniting his saber.

"WAIT!", yelled Jedi_Lord, "I killed that Faelan freak, doesn't that warrant some reward?"

"I guess he's right, in his wierd sort of way.", muttered the forgotten IG88h.

"Of course I'm right, I'm always right! I'm Jedi_Lor...", said Jedi_Lord, being cut off with a saber through the skull.

"That's the end of that.", said Neb.

Proceeding to scour through the now ruined droid repair shop, the crew somehow assembles most of the parts needed to repair Gonk. "Entropy, see what you can do with these things, the rest of us are going after the remaining Ewoks.", Neb said.

"I wanna' stay with him too!", yelled Speak.

"Ok, but only if you help me!", said Entropy.

The group divided up into two search (and destroy) parties, the first including Jeff, RBF, Nebula, Void, Taraea, and Acinonyx, and the other including all the rest of the losers that never get mentioned but are, in reality, still part of the story.

The second group was quickly forgotten, while the first group valiantly (and violently) searched through the streets of Drazen Isle, using whatever weapons they had to root out the Ewok menace. All was going according to plan when, all of a sudden, a warehouse near which the 6 heroes stood exploded, a giant construction robot piloted by Ewoks leaping out through the smoke. The Ewoke-drive arachnid droid bored down on our heroes, ready to rend their bodies into pulp...

"hey guys, Gonk is ok, so I came to see what's going on over here. I see that the ewoks have been destroyed."

"oh well, since the ewoks are fried, and nobody really cares about the cat guy, maybe we should just all go back to the cantina."
"I'll drink to that!" Wazzit yelled.
"OK. Let me just make sure we don't leave my dog out here in the wilderness. Here Pug! Come on boy!" Speak shouted.
Pug came happily bounding out of the forest, and nuzzled against Speak.
"Good boy. Come on, let's go guys."

For once in the history of the Bespin survivors, things seemed normal... or at least, normal for normal people. Things were pretty unusual for the survivors, but it was a very restive abnormality. However, after a few weeks of nothing strange and violent happening, the natives began getting restless. They actually craved some adventure, some excitement. But a Jedi craves not these things, so they tried to be patient, hoping that something would come along soon... and then... it did.

It was an average day in the Cantina, and as usual, it was packed with Ops. Entertainment was getting rare, increasing the frequency of kick wars between Jon and Nijaan.

And then, a mysterious figure stepped into the bar, prompting stares from all in the bar. "Who the hell are you?" Nebula shouted, using the time honored greeting for new arrivals.

"Call me Rifter," the trenchcoated man said simply. Pulling out a small metal sphere, he tossed it to RBF. "Here catch."

"What's this?" RBF said in puzzlement as he looked the sphere over.

Turning to leave, Rifter said, "A bomb."

RBF's eyes widened as he tossed it to Acinonyx. "I don't want it!" AC cried, throwing it behind the bar.

"Agggghh!" Taraea screamed. "Everybody run!" In a near panicked riot, the multitudinous patrons stormed out the door, just as the bomb exploded, blowing the roof off the cantina and shattering the windows for a block in every direction.

"I just finished rebuilding that!" Jeff shouted. "Where'd that @#$%er go?"

"There he is!" Neb shouted, and the mob charged the man as he slowly ambled away. Somehow, Rifter was just far enough away to make it into a building before the mob reached him. Angrily, they pounded on the door, finally breaking it in and spilling inside. They found Rifter standing across the room, just waiting for them.

"Glad you could make it," he said as they closed in on him. Just then, a metal slab slammed shut over the door, sealing the assembled Cantina patrons inside the room. Then, the whole building shook, nearly throwing them all off their feet.

"What's going on?" some unnamed person near the back shouted.

"We're just lifting off," Rifter explained. "See, this ain't really a building, it's a ship. And we should ought to be in low orbit about now. You see, I need your help..."

"I heard about your experience in pest control, and figured you could help me with a little infestation I'm having..."

"Um... When did some one slip a sign on my back saying 'Intergalctic pest control'? I'm no exterminator." RBF said to Entropy

"Dammit Brian, you've made me into a doctor not a translator." Entropy replied

Pax piped in "I think he's talking about the Ewoks."

"Clever to..." Rifter replied

"I know sarcasm when I hear it" RBF said "Any ways,, why'd you have to go blow up the cantina for? Most of the patrons are a bunch of blood thristy savages that are hungry for Ewok blood. All you had to do was walk in and say 'You want kill ewok?' and half the bar would be your loyal subjects."

"My problem is a bit worse then mear Ewoks. Look at this." Rifter pointed to a hologram in the center of the chamber. "That complex you are looking at is the Imperial Biogenic Research Lab on Synooch II. The empirials have been working on a hybrid soldier, a soldier that is unstopable. A soldier who causes terror with justy a mear thought, unfortunatly they have succeeded."

The hologram switches to a complex genetic equation that no one understands. Everyone's eyes lock on Entropy "What? You guys do know I'm not a real doctor, don't you? Don't you...?"

"That, little branch up in the corner is the genetic material for your typical ewok, you'll notice it branches off inot two more sections, one is the gentic code of a jawa." The patrons snickered

"HAHAHAHAHA, the imps must be getting desperate. OOOH... I'm scared, little imbred jawoks running around. O, aren't they cute, look at em scury..." VOid mocked

"Quick question. I being the supream being I am know a little about this stuff, I know enough to relize that third part doens't look...right. It looks wrong, what is it?" Jeff mused

"That is the problem... That third branch is.. Faelen's genetic code..." Rifter announced

Speak, BA, Void, Gonk, Neb, and Tarea pass out. "URG... Why can't I get a doctors sallary?" Entropy complained while dragging the limp bodies into the sick bay.

"So... Now what?" RBF asked...

Then suddenly Schmuck walks in with a saber and amputates his own arm for an unknown reason. He just falls on the floor helpless.

Everyone looks at Schmuck for a moment, then RBF cleared his throat. "As I was saying, So... now what?"

"Good question," Pax commented.

"Hey, wait a minute," Void said. that's the second thing you've said in three posts, and you're dead."

"Oh yeah, well, you're passed out and in the next room," Pax pointed out before suddenly disappearing.

"Damn continuity glitch," Jeff muttered. "Next thing you know Jon will be back in his armor and we'll go home to Bespin."

"*Achem* as I was saying, again... So, what do we do now?"

"Ok, so wait a sec.", mutters RBF, "you're saying we could have hundreds of little FaelanJawoks running around here?"

"Unfortunately, yes.", says Rifter.

"But I STILL don't understand why the hell there was a main character in the first chapter of the NeS!", slurs the drunken Sinc.

Everyone stares at him.

"C'mon Sinc, I've got a nice little surprise for you if you follow me.", says Entropy, dangling some form of booze in front of Sinc's face.

"Ok, so where were we? Something about an SSD
full of Ewoks blowing up?", says Wazzit.

"No! That was way back! We're talking about the FaelanJawoks!", yells RBF.

"Oh yeah! Heh, sorry.", says Wazzit, as he heads off to steal Sinc's bottle of booze.

"Ok, now, you say that the Imperials are planning on using Jawa/Ewok DNA mixed with Faelan's DNA to make deadly, little, annoying, furry, speech impared runts?", says RBF.

An orchestra is heard in the background. Everyone looks around the room.

"What the? ... Oh well. Anyhoo, yes that is exactly right, RBF. It looks like the Empire is still pissed about Jon stealing the Darktrooper Armor, and Cho'Koth taking that TIE, etc. etc. etc."

"Well, yeah, I guess the Impys DO have some reasons to be mad at us.", mutters Entropy, dragging a kicking and screaming Sinc back to the infirmary as Wazzit guzzles Sinc's booze.

"So this FaelanJawok thingy, what could it possibly do? I mean the average height of all of it's genes is like under 3 feet.", says Speak.

"True, but the FaelanJawok posesses even more terrifying powers than the Jawa, Ewok, and Faelan combined!", says Rifter.

Again, an orchestra is heard. "Will someone PLEASE figure out where the hell that music is coming from?", screams RBF.

"I will! C'mon Pug-Dog, C'mon boy! Let's sniff out that music!", says Speak, Pug-Dog follows him.

A little while later muffled barks, screams, and random musical notes are heard. Speak and Pug-Dog reappear a few moments later. "Well, that should be the end of that.", says Speak.

"Ok, now on with the ever-forgotten
