Expansion Stretching into Ahch-To. (HGRE.)

Admiral Zakur paced on the bridge of his Carrier as the rain came down harder and harder outside, the weather only getting worse. He had watched the black painted cruiser The Ascendant that belonged to Section 31. The small cruiser had dispatched shuttles towards the planet's surface and into the water below. He begrudgingly gripped his hands behind his back as he paced around.


Two Section 31 troops paced around on the deck of his Carrier. The black armor of the Section 31 troops was a glossier color then the standard white armor of the regular troops. He grumbled before he headed to the communications room with a grumble. He rubbed her nose a little as he tapped at his nose as the female Section 31 officer sat on the command deck of his vehicle as she shoved a grape into her mouth.


“So what exactly is Section 31 doing underwater? Are you even able to tell me that?” Zakur asked as he eyed the officer. The officer pulled at the collar of her black uniform.


“Weapons testing. Something new. We believe it will be able to wipe out force users easily. Sadly that’s all I can tell you. It’s all classified and what not.” The officer spoke as she stretched out a little.
 
Admiral Zakur groaned and adjusted his back a little before she leaned backwards on the command bridge deck. He eyed her curiously with a raised eyebrow as she ate another grape from the handful in her gloved palm.


“You know. I have seen kids with more emotion than you. You are just sitting there with that emotionless face. You could at least smile as you rudely sit on some control panels of this carrier.” Zakur stated bluntly as he eyed her. She raised an eyebrow.


“I at least show more emotion than Fauste. Mrs. Stoic and what not. I am just glad she’s been deemed essential by the Grand Master.” The officer spoke bluntly with a shrug.


“Anyone with half a brain could deem the Starborn sect essential. Especially an alliance with their leader. If our mission is to continue as planned, that is.” Zakur spoke with a wave of his hand.


“Eh. That’s true. Though, this Grand Master and the way he speaks of the Sith had me very slightly intrigued. Called Eos a rabid dog needing to be out down. I’m Officer Hatcher.” She said with a small flourish of her hand.


“That’s new. I thought all you Section 31 officers were stone cold morons.” Zakur said bluntly. She laughed and shrugged, grumbling as she saw she was out of grapes.
 
“Some of us are. Especially the new brats. They go by the book and rarely know when to improvise or take some rules less seriously. I’ve been around longer. I bend a few rules.” Hatcher said as she slyly stood up and strode over to a food synthesizer in a way that would have made the eyes of many men follow. He had bigger problems on hand though.


“I heard that Admiral Viola’s troops discovered an old relic just floating in the middle of space. Something from our past. Do you think there are other myths that weren’t really myths out there?” Zakur states as he looks out into space with a raised eyebrow.


“I heard that. I don’t know of any ancient artifacts discovered aboard it. Either way, do you really think we will discover an entity that can paralyze someone and leave them to die for eternity?” Hatcher said as she eyed the fresh plate of grapes.


“No, no. Not really. I just fear that some of the stories my grandparents told me as a kid weren’t made up but came from ancient encounters.” He shared. He had told her the truth and she knew it. He let out a sigh and looked back at her.
