Over the holocomm came the image of Dan Zorko. Looking haggard and tired after the Battle for Coruscant, it was not a pleasent site. "Ask the Empress for an audience please." he told the operator, as he ran his hand through his hair. "Tell her it's urgent."

Delona was summoned to the conference room, with a large table. The chairs were empty but the holoprojector in the centre of the room allowed a private and visually impressive feed. Pressing a single button on the side of the device, a blue beam shot up into the air, dimming the lights, illuminating everything in the room including Delona herself.
The face what appeared was that of Dan Zorko. Delona herself didn't have authority to answer the call on her behalf, but she was there to make sure the link was maintained and hear the discussion between the two leaders. "Diverting you to the Empress now" Delona stated while flicking the controls around, before yet again, a blue beam appeared and the Empress' face was next to that of Dan Zorko.

The Empress saw the face of Dan Zorko from her handheld transceiver. She decided to ignore all formality and speak to her friend, who obviously wanted to talk. She walked away from the Grand Hall and into a nearby corridor where her Special Forces bodyguards could take easier positions, even though it wouldn't be necessary within the Temple.
"Good evening" Jalua said with a friendly smile, "How are you?".

Dan didn't return the smile. "I've been better." he said. "I've called to ask you a favor. As I'm sure you are aware the Imperials have captured Coruscant. We deployed our forces to assist the Imperials. We successfully repeled the Republic, but not without great cost. All but one of my fleets are severly damaged, with casualties mounting by the minute as we try to contain damage and fires." He gave a deep sigh. "I can't send them all back to Lok, there's just too many, my hospital ships are full, and I am getting to the point where I have to tell our medics to cease rescue operations. Would you be willing to send hospital ships to Coruscant, and allow some ofd mine to stop at Coalition planets to drop off personnel in need of medical condition?"
At this point the screen blinked out for a second, then disappeared. "Sorry about that. All systems besides life support on the Talons Revenge shorted after a battle with one of the Republics Viscounts. I'm calling from the cocpit of an X-Wing, with a Imp class SD outside the hangaar boosting my signal." He ran his fingers through his hair. "Like I said, it was a brutal battle."

Jalua was stunned, although she knew Dan was a true pirate at heart, she didn't think he'd risk his own life by going into battle. At least until he'd assured his faction of pirates, although she got to the matter at hand. "Of course, Delona will send them on my behalf, she is my new assistant. Use all of our planets to your needs, in fact, we now have some new ones which may be of help to you. If you send your forces to Commenor then they can be repaired. Medical ships will head from Sarapin to Coruscant and transport your wounded back to a new facility at Gyndine". Jalua was determined to aid those who had saved her father's fleet and that of her own forces several times in the past.

Dan cocked an eyebrow as his image reappeared. "That assasin who tried to kill you is now your...? Never mind, I don't have time for that. I'll send the hospital ships already full to Gydine, the facilities at Lok will be busy with the fleets returning. After the wounded are removed from the damaged ships, I will send some to Commenor for repairs. I hope your medics are prepared, it's not pretty." Dan rubbed his tired eyes. "Thank you, Empress for coming to our aid in our time of need." He leaned out of the screens view for a momment, and shouted instructions to an officer below. He then leaned back. "You don't know how much this means to me."

"Don't worry about it" The Empress reassured, "I'm at Ossus at the moment with the Jedi Order but I will visit your injured and supervise repairs personally once i get back. If necessary, we can later transfer some of your ships to Gyndine to get them repaired and re-armed quicker. Plus some of your men will be recovering there so it may be a good place for you to send your remaining crew?".

Dan nodded. "Right. I need to stay at Coruscant to supervise repairs and medical work being done by the Imperials, so I'll send my 2nd in command, Admiral Clemence to Gydine to oversee those repairs. Youre at Ossu? Good, that could be helpful in the future. I'm afraid I have to go, Empress. The Imperials think we're evacuating, and I need to calm them down. Many thanks Empress, those ships should be arriving at those beforementioned planets soon. I'll contact you as soon as I can." With a nod, he cut off the message.

Dan appeared on the holocomm once again, and this time he was furious. "Someone get me the Empress, and ask her why my ship is under attack and being boarded by Coalition forces, and why there's a Coalition battlegroup over my planet."
