Dark Threat

[Nick Ryder]

"But there are still who knows how many people stuck in that sector." Nick said and shook his head. "But you two do make a good point... rather deal with him on our terms than on his, but a man, with my face is going to have control of a sector we thought lost." he clenched his fist. "That son of a bitch knew that if he came here, talked to mom that I'd have to respond. And that I don't have the political power to fight him."

[Kinsey Calhoun]

"No you don't but your niece has a daughter who happens to be married to the man who gave me the authority to do whatever the hell I want." Kinsey smirked. "And we know where Dominus plans to be."

[Rebecca Talon]

"The Jase'dasis will aide you," Rebecca added. "And not just in words. You have our klidens. I will talk to Ambassador K'meck. We'll get the Cardassians to help us too, and let's talk to President Ortiz. Every little but helps."

[Nick Ryder]

"You know Kinsey, there is entirely a reason why I kept you close." Nick chuckled as he ran through the sensor logs. "You are entirely too dangerous when you're given the authority to do whatever the hell you want. And I think we'll need that." he snapped his fingers. "Found him. Holy... sh.." he shook his head. "That dick..." he pointed to a map on the screen. "He's hanging around my memorial park... oh nice..." he watched the sat image. "And he's pissing on my monument..."

[Kinsey Calhoun]

"We can be on him in 2." Kinsey said as she quickly reached for her comm unit and sent a mental message to Jack to meet her there with Clint and Selene. "Beam me to the Ryder Memorial Park now!" She yelled into it.

[Clint Cross]

Clint beamed to the Park within seconds of Kinsey and Nick and Sandoval's arrivals.

"What's the plan of attack?" Clint said as he tapped his wrist band and beamed his quiver and bow to his hand. Quickly removing his jacket he slung the quiver across his back and pulled out a couple of arrows.

"We attack." Jack said coldly as he unholstered a weapon from under his jacket.

"We calm down for a half second." Nick said as he walked forward and kept his own kilden in his hand. "Becca, hang back. Things go south. Then we cause some property damage."

"He really looks like you sir... flame?" Clint whispered.

"Worse, electricity. Selene, the widow bites may not work on him." Nick replied as he watched Dominus walk around the memorial park, kicking the small statues that represented the others that were lost in the Capitol attack.

[Selene]

"Good thing that's not all I brought." Selene said with a smirk as she pulled her gun free from its holster . "Did you pack the explosive heads Hawkeye?"

[Clint Cross]

"Of course." Clint said with a nod of his head as he slipped his targeting glasses on. "Ready when you all are."

[Kinsey Calhoun]

“What do you say we let him know we’re here with one of those arrows?” Selene offered, grinning.

“Hey Dominus!” Kinsey yelled as she took a step towards him. Mixed emotions ran through her. Part of her wanted to flee and part of her wanted to reach out and rip him in half like she had the Brethren.

Face to face with Dominus she shoved K’n’zy’s fears down and replaced them with rage. She wanted him to pay for Thessia, Solara, and even K’n’zy.

“Or Kinsey could just tell at him.” Selene said with a raised eyebrow.

[Nick Ryder]

"Just be careful, we don't want to blow this." Nick whispered and took a deep breath as he activated his personal shield under his suit and approached his doppleganger. He was half relieved that the park itself was empty for the moment, last thing he needed was for Dominus to take hostages.

"I was wondering how quickly you'd show up Nicholas... Kinsey" Dominus said in a very casual manner as he continued to knock down statues.

"Didn't take you long after you left my mother to take a piss on my monument." Nick said coldly as he approached.

"Thought it appropriate, this is really useless, most of these people are alive again... well, other than the ones you helped Jackson incinerate." Dominus said with a half smile. "Didn't think the boy had the balls to do that. Anyway... I assume your mother informed you of my terms."

"Got no power you know that." Nick replied as he leaned against a tree. "Not the President anymore."

"Oh come now Nicholas, you and I both know you're the real leader of this planet and this Alliance you formed up. You say something happens, it happens. You and Sandoval... and Calhoun, the real shadow leadership." Dominus took a seat on a bench and cocked his head. "I want the Pythus Sector, it was mine, but I do not appreciate your probes and scout craft. The sector and all within it is mine, every planet, every humanoid life form is mine. You also leave me alone, let me do what I need to do. You can't really fight me. Not unless you want what happened at Thessia to happen here. This isn't just a planet of whores after all. There are children and families and far far more at stake. But I could wipe it out in seconds." he glanced over Nick's shoulder and saw Kinsey and her team. "I could even make the case to march back on Xenex and blow up everything they tried to rebuild. IF you don't leave me and mine alone."

"If we refuse to give into your demands?" NIck said as he crossed his arms.

"Then I show no mercy." Dominus said coldly. "You know I can get to your mother at any time or anyone else you care about." he displayed a holographic image of Kirby, Ethan and a few of their agents in chains together. "I found them in a rift, Imperium already had their way with most of the crew and its Captains. Devereaux and Neiros are long dead, I think I found their skeletal remains somewhere, but I know what Newstead means to you. Your unofficial daughter. Riddick... your son in law. They could be returned as well."

"We know how you treat prisoners." Nick replied.

"I haven't touched the girl, now Riddick... he's been rather... fight prone, BUT he's mostly intact." Dominus said and crossed his arms, mirroring Nick's posture and expression. "So what will it be? Do we have a deal or... do I crush a skull for fun?"
