Piett's Storyline - The Cloned Piett (Part II) - Beyond Good and Evil

Please note this is related to the story posted on the following blog: http://ltbrycewalker.wordpress.com/2010/12/22/the-rebels-secret-weapon/
To stay posted on this storyline, you will need to follow @Bryce_Walker, @Aerith_KaTal and @CelestialPhenyx on Twitter.

I couldn't bear to think I was betrayed by my own family, my own friends, the Rebellion.  I began to worry too much that maybe the Rebellion was ploting against me, and thus made a comm call to my superior, Captain Aerith Ka'Tal.  Aerith is one of my closest friends, with a bit of a fiery temper to boot.  She started off coldly to me, as usual, but we began talking none the less.  Below is a transcript of our conversation (please note, when the line starts off as "@" that is whom the line is being directed to:

@ *CoMMs* Operative Nyx reporting, ma'am. Is this line encrypted?
@ *c* Nyx, good to hear from you. I understand you are still in your bunker, are you not? *stiffly*
@ *c* No ma'am, I am back at the Executor. Operative Emp and his wife Wicket are fine. I hope you are well. How fare the Rebels?
@ *c* \WE/ all are fine. And yes, this line is encrypted. Why are you contacting me, Nyx? *coldly*
@ *C* Understood ma'am. I... *hesitating* I have a question ma'am. The Imperials captured a Rebel freighter recently...
@ *c* (cutting her off) They capture our ships all the time, Nyx, and we do the same!!! This is nothing special! *sharply*
@ *c* *swallowing hard* Understood, ma'am. But this freighter contained something else. My informant said clones were inside.
@ *c* (impatient) NYX! I do NOT have time for this!!!! How do you know your informant isn't \lying/ to you?
@ *c* Permission to speak freely, ma'am?
@ *c* (flustered) GO AHEAD, NYX! What do you want to know?!
@ *c* I trust my sources, but you seem to be elusive in your responses. What are you hiding from me?! You're my friend, Aerith!
@ *c* (beyond angry) NYX, I AM TELLING YOU TO STAND DOWN NOW!! DO NOT QUESTION YOUR RANKING OFFICER OR I WILL PULL YOU!!!!
@ *c* What if that ranking officer is hiding a secret from her closest friend? You're BETRAYING me, Aerith!! I know what u did!!
@ *C* (between her teeth) NYX, you go so far as to pursue this issue further, and I will terminate you from the Rebellion!
@ *seething in anger* *c* Aerith... you're inviting a war with me! And I'm ten times worse than anything the Imperial fleet has!
@ *pretty steamed* *c* Then so be it! I told you already, this is BIGGER than you, Nyx! THIS CONVERSATION IS OVER! *end comm*
@Aerith_KaTal *throws her comm against her office wall, feeling tinges of anger, but unable to feel it completely* @bryce_walker

This issue is bigger than I imagined.  The more I start to get involved in everything, the more I realize that there are demons and angels on both sides of the aisle... it goes beyond good and evil.
