Aboard the Epoch Wren - approaching CoruscantTalking with Canis had broken the tension for the group, trading pleasantries, discussing his travels...it was interrupted by an annoying clicking sound...Elyria turned backed to the console near Deav'ril - a blinking red light matching each click... "Deav'ril..just what is that...?" unfamiliar with this model ship, it took her a moment to realize it was a backup comm - ancient technology equipped on many of the vessels offering a security the modern more traceable units did not...turning from the conversation, she flipped the switch..turning a knob she began to receive a message on an old rarely used channel Vev osk senth senth. Senth esk nern dorn forn leth esk esk trill. ...she gasped..turning back to the group. "Davth!" and back to the console..speaking quickly in Aurabesh... "  " (*Ka'all, Ka'all..is it you?..Ka'all..where...*) the message began repeating itself..pounding her fist on the console "Dammit!It's looped! speaking directly into the console "Computer...what was the origin of that message!the computer responded: "Transmission from Coruscant..approximate latitude.." "Computer..that is all Turning to the group "Davth...Davth..can we trust it? You heard it didn't you?..you heard the Master's Signal "Natural Male Enhancement"...do we trust it? Could it be a trap? She ran her fingers through the front of her hair, and tho' the cockpit was small she began to pace..the group staring at her...biting her thumb, under her breath ..we can't take the chance..we have to... she suddenly stopped and turned to them all..pointing her finger at the holo image of the young journeyer... "Canis - head to Voss immediately, from there contact Master Jusik and Master Pentar - tell them to send the Fleet to Voss - immediately - tell them them to secure the Homeland, once there...keep the ships hidden until needed...but tell them PREPARE FOR WAR! We can't risk contact this close to the enemy..it's up to you..on my orders...on the Grandmasters orders...we must get to Coruscant and rescue the Grandmaster - we will rendezvous on Voss, whatever Master Endar has planned this could tip the balance of power. Canis I'm counting on you! turning to the Twi'lek "Deav'ril..put the pedal to the metal...Let's get this party started!"

Coruscant - Dance With Your DevilsZara narrowed her eyes, not sure if she believed his explanation. What were the chances that he would be here, in the exact same club, during this ungodly hour, just having a drink to wind down? Especially right after she had been tipped off by the Emperor, the entire situation seemed suspicious. A likely story. And you underestimate yourself. If I had tried to come up with some sort of 'half-baked lie,' do you really think you would have believed me?She took a step backwards when he came so close to her, staring right back at him with equal ferocity. Though Zara had to stare upwards, as she had always been a little on the short side. She raised an eyebrow when he accused her of cowardice. That was new. Insubordination she would admit to, even stupidity at insulting a High Lord, but cowardice? When she was staring straight at someone she knew could easily defeat her? She smiled, her facial features deceptively childlike. The young woman's hand wrapped around the hilt of her lightsaber, ready to draw it if needed. And now you try and justify your actions based on your outdated storybook values. I don't think that's the reason you want to kill me. You don't like it that I don't bow at your feet, and you want to steal my glory by taking control of the mission. But that's okay. Because if you really do kill me, you can go ahead and tell everyone that I died a coward, a traitor, whatever you want to call me. But I will die in peace, knowing that I died in order to ensure the success of this mission.

Coruscant - Dance With Your Devils Locolvictum couldn't help but to start laughing. It was too amusing to him that she thought that he actually cared what she choose to do, as long as it didn't involve him of course. "I'm sorry, but I find the junk that you have been saying amusing. Like my outdated my ideals. If you run away from a fight, you are a coward. And I could care less about your mission. Your talk of me wanting glory?! HA! don't make me laugh. I already mange a whole division with ten sub divisions that have about four hundred members each. If I wanted more work, I would fire my secretary."Then he leaned in close to her and whispered, "I average about twelve hours of sleep a week. I don't have time to take on unnecessary missions. So thank you for ruining my R and R again. Its not like I'm sleep deprived or anything. In fact I am absolutely livid."

Coruscant - Dance With Your Devils
Ka'all tried to be as inconspicuous as possible when walking back into the club through the kitchen, but of course that damned Rodian cook had to fuss at him again when the old Je'daii tried to sneak through. Putting on his best angry face, Ka'all picked up the cook with a force choke and glared at him. For the first time, it seemed, the chef noticed the sith robes and fear crept into his eyes. Without a word, Ka'all put the Rodian down and walked out.
Stepping back into the haze, lights, and music, he looked quickly for the woman that had brought him, they had no time to waste. Pushing through the crowd of patrons, Ka'all stopped short and stifled a gasp as he saw Zara toe to toe with a man who's insignia identified him as a sith High Lord. "Sonofa..." Ka'all muttered as he shook his head. How could he get her out of this? He didn't think he could just walk up and talk his way out, he had no way of knowing who all had seen him at the sith temple or been involved in his torture. It was too risky to be noticed. He could fight the High Lord, but he was without a lightsaber and he really didn't want the attention with them still so close to the temple and the emperor. He needed some sort of distraction to get them away.

Coruscant - Dance With Your DevilsZara instinctively pushed him away by the shoulders when he drew close to her again. It was a completely involuntary action, just like when she had stepped backwards before, as she wasn't comfortable with that kind of close proximity unless it was with someone she trusted. Standing cold, emotionless, and silent, she surveyed him with a glance before continuing. Then I have a suggestion for you. If you are truly as busy as you say you are, perhaps you shouldn't involve yourself in conversations that have nothing to do with you. You brought all of this upon yourself when you decided to force yourself into a private conversation.It was then out of the corner of her eye that she saw Ka'all return. She did not dare turn her head to look at him and draw attention to the Je'daii, but she wondered why he had come back. Though she currently had the High Lord distracted, she didn't know for how long, and he was putting himself at risk of being recognized the longer he stayed here. But in any case, she realized that perhaps his presence in witnessing her altercation with a High Lord could work to her advantage, since she was supposed to be putting up a front that she was a turncoat.

Coruscant - Dance With Your Devils Locolvictum was no longer finding this amusing. He wondered if she was this dense. More importantly, why did he have to explain himself to a child, worse an underling. The look on his face told a full story, and he wasn't wanting to tell. "Are you seriously that dense? I am your superior, unless you are talking to someone of my rank, your talking to the Emperor, or if you somehow get to my rank. You have no private conversations, if you want one get into a ship and go into hyperspace. Otherwise whatever you say is my business."Locolvictum shook his head with a look of disappointment. He had wasted his own time off from working fighting with some idiot that didn't understand there own position. "Well thanks to you, I wasted all my time that I could afford spending out tonight. If you have any other stupid banter that you want to say, say it now, otherwise get lost. And I expect an apology for wasting my evening."

Coruscant - Dance With Your DevilsDawsons' ears were ringing with a buzz of reports from both the droids and personnel he had in security. Someone, the male sith from before as best he could figure had caused a commotion and assaulted one of his cooks, a woman and a man were now facing off on the floor, reports had it as the woman he had spoken with and now Manos was telling him the man from the bar had made his way onto the floor. he muttered setting his drink on a stage and pulled his datapad from his coat pocket. He deftly punched in several passwords and finalized the last of his security protocols.
There was an audible whir as the ventilation system picked up speed pumping even more of the intoxicating pheromones, it was harmless for the most part, a few more bastards would likely be born but it should at least slow the sith down before they destroyed his club. A nautalonian woman, a regular but he could not place her name at the moment "Dawson, master Dawson," she paused catching her breath "A woman told me so have the bill sent to a Highlord, Lovolvictum" she ran past him clearly uncomfortable with what had been developing. Several battle droids were now on the club floor as well as a small group of Nikto Morgukai, bouncers he had hired incase something like this were ever to happen.
He found them it was certainly a standoff and one he truly wished was not happening in his club, or anywhere near him for that matter but here they all were. "I dont suppose we can have a drink and forget all of this ever happened now can we?" his guards had formed a perimeter and a crowd had started to gather.

Aboard the Epoch Wren - approaching Coruscant "It looks like we have a war to fight, do you think there will be war brides?" Davth was truly uncomfortable with the thought of going to war as they sped towards the enemy capitol with only a handful of Jeda'ii and a small smugglers ship. He started to try and center himself when he heard a small voice push from the back of his mind "You can not keep me here for long."

Coruscant - Dance With Your DevilsZara rolled her eyes at his comments. Again with the insults. As if she cared what he thought of her. In her mind she had already won, seeing how angry she had gotten him. You are very quickly provoked to anger. Though this emotion is valued by the Sith, it makes you easy to manipulate. And the only thing I'll apologize for is the bill if you do decide to wreck this place just because the littlest Sith made you angry. she smiled, but the smile was broken when she heard Dawson's voice and his feeble attempt at diplomacy. She glared daggers at him, an obvious "no" to his question. She didn't want him to get involved in this. Though having this fight in the middle of his club might be enough to lose his favor, she still believed she could gain a potential ally in him, if only she played her cards right. And she didn't want any of her potential allies to be killed by a Sith lord in his fury. Now... unless you have anything more to say to me, or you still want to "punish" me, I have some very important business to attend to.

scuttlefish Coruscant - Dance With Your Devils , he knew this was not going to end well. Closing his eyes, he projected his thoughts to her, "What are you doing!? Swallow your damned pride, bow low, and apologize so we can walk away! Do you have that much of a death wish?" Hearing the club owner plead his case with an offering of drinks, the old Je'daii master figured that wouldn't be enough to end this confrontation. Sith were notoriously hard headed and this one was a High Lord which meant plenty of arrogance to go with his stubbornness. Ka'all slowly and quietly made his way around the ring of people until he was standing to the back of the Sith lord, where Zara could see his face. If a fight broke out, at least master Endar could hit the sith with force lightning in the back and make their getaway. He wouldn't do anything though unless the man made the first move to attack. Everything hinged on what the two facing off did next....

Coruscant - Dance With Your DevilsZara's attention was diverted when she heard another's voice inside of her head. The Je'daii!She did not make eye contact, not daring to indicate to the High Lord that he was right behind him, but she did block of her thoughts to him for the moment so that she could communicate with the Je'daii without any interference. She gritted her teeth. Perhaps this was a better opportunity than she thought... Dammit, old man, don't you understand? This isn't about anything foolish like pride. He's after us -- I've been keeping him occupied so that you could get away. If we both walk away, he's only going to follow us! As far as death wishes go, well, I'm going to be executed for treason anyways for helping you; I might as well make my death useful!

Coruscant - Dance With Your Devils Locolvictum shook his head, now she was keeping him here. Locolvictum honestly thought that it would be easier to kill her, but that would prove her right. Even if it would make him feel good in the long run, he couldn't let her get the satisfaction of it. "If I was so angry, then riddle me this, why are you still alive?" Locolvictum shook his head again, he didn't want to deal with this any longer. But every sentence that she was saying sounded like a insult to him. And the Mandalorian part of him seriously wanted to challenge her to a fight to the death just for the sake of honor. Then someone else spoke: "I dont suppose we can have a drink and forget all of this ever happened now can we?" Locolvictum looked and it was the barkeeper. He guessed that he was the manager. He decided to keep it cool and take a quick change to his demeanor. Locolvictum looked at him with a smile of embarrassment and scratched the back of his head. Looking ashamed of what was going on. "I do apologize Mr. Manager, this here is my ex-girlfriend. We broke up a few weeks ago, but she won't quit hounding me. Now I think she has gone to trying to publicly humiliate me. I am deeply sorry for disrupting your place of business."It was a perfect act. He played the part of the embarrassed ex-boyfriend so well, that it actually seemed like a totally different person.

Coruscant - Dance With Your Devils The events were definitely unfolding in a manner he was certainly not expecting, two sith facing off in his club one claiming they were jousted lovers, the other wanting him to evacuate the third man who he could now see to be fully alert. "I do apologize Mr. Manager, this here is my ex-girlfriend. We broke up a few weeks ago, but she won't quit hounding me. Now I think she has gone to trying to publicly humiliate me. I am deeply sorry for disrupting your place of business." Dawson raised his hand and rolled his wrist for a moment before speaking, it was a silent signal for his men and the droids to be on the defensive as opposed to the aggressor. "Ah a jilted ex-lover I know that situation better than I would care to admit friend. Though I have a name, Dawson, Captain Dawson if you would be so kind." he bowed slightly extending his left arm in front of himself. "Don't worry about any form of humiliation here, I would say atleast ninety percent of the patrons in the club will be suffering a hangover like they have never experienced not to mention they will more than likely have a terrible aching in their loins." he smirked there was almost a pink mist floating through the air. "Allow me to offer you your choice of the women in my club, or perhaps the men if you fancy. As for your ex, allow me to take care of her, a night with me and I can have it so that she will not even remember your name, Lord....."He was doing his best to keep civil, and keep the situation under control but he was not sure how to read the Sith any of the three. Though the woman had told him the first male was important and would need transport off of the planet.

Aboard the Epoch Wren - approaching Coruscant"It looks like we have a war to fight, do you think there will be war brides?" Elyria couldn't help but laugh, somehow Davth always knew how to break the tension...she felt his anxiety nonetheless..combined with her own, she hoped the other two would not begin to panic...after all...they could not know Grandmaster Endar's reasoning...until then Elyria knew she must trust in him...even though she couldn't understand his compulsion to singlehandedly pursue the Emperor on his home planet...and they were far enough from Voss that the entire incident might be over before they were ever involved. She reached out to Davth with her mind and spoke as much...it was strange...she could sense the other presence within him...she found it disconcerting..her brow slightly furrowed as she looked over at her comrade.....

Coruscant - Dance With Your Devils "No thank you Mr. Manager." Locolvictum said, still with that embarrassed smile, "Like I have been telling my ex that she has ruined my evening and I can no longer afford to stay out. All I want is her to apologize and I can be on my way. And Lord what? I don't know what you mean. If you mean that I am the lord of pick bad relationships, then yes, yes I am. But otherwise I am not lord of anything" Locolvictum was really driving this ex boyfriend girlfriend thing. To the point where he was denying that he was a Sith lord. But despite that, it was very convincing. Locolvictum showed the right side of his belt, there wasn't a lightsaber there. Just a blaster.
"I'm not sure how you can get confused, I mean unless my tailor got my order mixed up again. I keep on asking for a bath robe, but he keeps on sending me these. I don't even think he knows what a bathrobe is." Locolvictum was ranting now, it seemed like he was just another ignorant person that just kept on getting sent the wrong thing time and time again.
