Chapter 71 - News

News from Ordo reached the Academy about possible spies in Clan Spartan. Although only a few people were actually informed on the matter it would eventually be leaked to the rest of the Mandalorians. A few of the main leaders of Clan Spartan were worried at what actions Diesel would take to strike the spy. However, his actions surprised most; he did nothing and only started a single thing.

"Clan Spartan is strong, No matter if we have a spy among us we will stand above them and anyone who they are working with. We destroy anyone who gets in our way. If they have to use a spy against that just proves they fear us. And that fear will be their destruction."

The leaders weren't shaken but looked in awe on how little he cared for the possibility of deception. Instead took it as an opportunity to strengthen his grip on those you were already loyal to him and shake those who were not. However, behind the scenes Ruray and Sophia were already at work trying to figure out who the spy was. However, everything Ruray would dig further in, she would always end up in a roadblock.

In Ruray's eyes this was confusing there should be no one with the skills in computers that could surpass her in Clan Spartan. What made the matter even more troublesome was the fact that the more she dug into it the more she believed there were more than one spy. The spy had to have connections to the Mandalorian in some sort which every few would have unless you were a warrior. But everyone in Clan Spartan were newer to being "famous." Her brother in arms were only Clanless Mandalorians until they joined Diesel so they would have no reason to turn on him. As a matter of fact they were two stupid to block her in anything computer related. Ril'ah was constantly finding ways to improve Diesel's image no matter the cost. Dom is constantly training and or out on missions so he wouldn't be able to do anything. Sophia is constantly helping me develop things and is the only person who has the computer skills to block me. She should have no connections other than us though.

Ruray took at the list of every Clan Spartan Officer in thinking the only possibility would be a newer member who would attempt to sabotage Diesel.

"Ruray, could you stop and get back to helping us develop these?"

"Sorry, Sophia I was trying to narrow down on the spy!"

"Any luck?"

"No."

"I see, then focus."

P.O.V. Spy

"The blocking attempts obviously worked and prevented any extra information from spreading. Ruray will stay clueless for a while. However, she is extremely smart and will figure it out eventually."

"I'm sure, as of now our plans have been going smoothly without issues."

"This war will be a building point, our deaths will not be in vain."

"For the future."

"For the future."

Meanwhile, on Nar Shaddaa the Black Suns were running around the city searching for the three pawadans that escaped. Of course with Rayath leading them they so far have been able to escape capture again. They were constantly running for their lives attempting to find a way off the planet. Eventually, the three would arrive at a Republic Starport and two of the padawans would board the ship and be shipped back to the temple on Coruscant. Although, the two of them didn't wish to leave Rayath on the planet and wanted her to return with them to the temple. She stated she had a mission to complete that was left to her by her master.

With the two of them gone Rayath turned and went back into the city. Knowing her chances would be slim in finding the void. She began hunting down Black Sun members, through the force she could feel the void on the Nar Shaddaa. She could sense they were in the Black Sun territory and if she could cause enough mayhem that void would show itself. She would openly attack the Black Sun members making her presence known.

Soon forces all around began hearing that the Black Sun members were being hunted. Although the details were pretty sketchy this left an opening for other criminal organizations to attempt take advantage of this situation

P.O.V. Black Suns

"Boss, we're being hit on multiple fronts from multiple organizations. We will not be able to hold out."

"Call Clan Spartan I think it's time we form an alliance through other means."

"Oh! Great idea! What about the padawan?"

"Keep the details hidden for now, she will eventually cross the Mandalorians if they agree to help us."
