"Outdated piece of history? If there's one thing I hate, it's a hypocrite."Asmaria said to the X-wing pilot. "However, since I'm on a mission right now, I'll let it slide... this time. Here's just hoping that your commander is a little bit more respectful towards the people who are gonna help save the galaxy from this menace." she said, closing the comm channel and controlling her Interceptor into a half-flip, doing a half-twist at the end to end up upright, then continuing down to the landing pad she'd shown the Jedi to. As she landed, she opened the center cockpit and climbed out, feeling a little bit sticky as she wasn't used to the humidity of this planet. She began to look around for the Jedi.

Reimos had just crossed the landing pad when a large black shadow came over him. Looking up, he instantly jumped out of the way, landing on his stomach. He came out from behind one of the wing braces to spot the Sith just getting out of the ship. "Nice landing. I would have given you a 'ten' on the landing, but you almost HIT ME! So I'm dropping it to a 'six'", Reimos said with some enthusiasm. He himself had to admit that it was one of the worst jokes that he had made in a while. But it was worth it, he thought.

Anwa hopped out of the shuttle after Reimos and was just slinging her bag on her back as Asmaria landed. She chuckled at Reimos' attempt at humor. He wasn't always the best comedian, but he tried.
"So, what did you find out about that other ship, Asmaria? Anything we should be concerned about?

Asmaria looked at Reimos. "Perhaps you should watch out when you're standing in the middle of a landing pad." she said. "Plus, I was distracted." she added. When Anwa asked her what she had found out about the X-wing, she replied, "That the pilot is a New Republican bunghole, and a hypocrite to boot... The nerve of him, calling my TIE Interceptor an outdated piece of history when he's flying around in an old X-wing..." she fumed. "Also, that his commander will be paying us a visit shortly. Let's just hope he has a little more respect towards the people who are working hard to keep this New Republic from falling apart." she said. She may not have agreed with everything the New Republic did, and especially disagreed with the NR's view that hypocrites like the pilot of that X-wing should be given military positions, but she had to admit, it was a lot better than the Empire was. The only reason she flew a TIE Interceptor was because it was a symbol of fear and respect from days long past, and its sonic scream still rattled the hearts of anyone who heard it.

"So I assume that this commander wouldn't be here to congratulate us on starting that fight up there?", Reimos said, pointing to the sky without looking up. "It really wasn't my fault, that Wookie completely budged in front of me. I had to squeeze back in!" Of course he wasn't the only one that knew that this confrontation could possibly turn hostile. The Jedi and the New Republic had both been on edge recently. And the fact that a new threat came for the galaxy wasn't helping that much. Eventually, if the Jedi and Sith failed to stop the fiends, then it would be up to the New republic to save the galaxy. And possibly the Remnant with them. "So should we wait here for this 'commander' to come to us? I really don't feel like having any more distractions from our main goal", Reimos said in a heavy tone, he glanced over at the Sith. Reminding himself that they might be one step closer to their objective if she wasn't there.

The shuttle from the Jaspyn dropped through the atmospere towards the planet; the lone X-wing fell into pace behind the shuttle. Settling down on an empty landing zone, the shuttle and X-wing came to a stop. Todrias stood up from his seat in the shuttle along with the soldiers as the hatch opened up, and a beam of hazy light came through the space. When the hatch opened full, Todrias stepped out into the humid air of Ord Mantell. He climbed off the ladder and stood in front of the shuttle while the soldiers fell in around him.
Todrias looked around the landing pad with a slight scowl on his face looking for the Jedi shuttle and the TIE. He found them roughly a couple hundred yards away, and started to walk towards them.

Asmaria frowned at Reimos. "Hey, don't shoot the messenger, blame this commander guy or whatever. Believe me, I'll be more than happy when I don't have to deal with you anymore, and the sooner we deal with this, the better. But supposedly, this guy wants to talk to us, and he's obviously got enough military power to throw around, so I suggest we not tick him off. Oh, look, that's probably him now." she said, spotting the small squadron of soldiers led by a man with a scowl on his face. She made a mock salute as the commander approached, trying as hard as she could to hold in her giggles.

Anwa agreed with Reimos about not wanting any more distractions, but Asmaria was certainly correct too in not blowing this commander off. The Jedi and the NR were having enough relations problems as it was. They didn't need to go adding to them. Hopefully this wouldn't take too long and they could be about their business shortly.
At Asmaria's indication, Anwa turned around. She too saw the troops marching towards them. Though Anwa wasn't as obviously rude as Asmaria, she did let out a low growl and mutter a few choice words in Huttese. "What in the bloody galaxy does he think he needs all those soldiers for? It's not like they'll stop the four of us for long if any thing got started. Why is it that military men always feel they have to show off their power?"

Aki, who had been hovering over Asmaria's shoulder, translated the "choice words" for her via a holoscreen that appeared on the arm she wasn't mock-saluting with, and Asmaria snickered under her breath. "Stop it" she whispered to Anwa. "I'm trying not to laugh." she said, regaining her composure. Then, after hearing Anwa's questions, she said, "Maybe he's compensating for something..." then immediately regretted it, because she let out a giggle and was barely able to stop herself from going into a fit of them.

((Hm... I guess we should just skip to Tanaab, then.))
Zet slowly climbed out of the shuttle, doing his best to seem old and frail... which wasn't very hard.

((srry tied up with school 'n stuff))
As Todrias neared the small group, he took mentals notes about the individuals. One of the group members gave a mock salute, and he felt his scowl gradually deepen. When he got within ten paces of them he signaled for the escort soldiers to remain there while he spoke to the Jedi.
"Good day, Jedi," Todrias greeted with a slight hint of disinterest in his voice, "I am Fleet Commander Todrias Mara, with the New Republic Navy."

Asmaria dropped her mock salute. she thought. She hadn't listened to him for three seconds, and already she was growing angry. Asmaria growled softly under her breath, but not enough for anyone but those standing closest to her to hear.

Zet nodded, and said, "I am Zet Ker'ion..." He then coughed, and said, "And, Sir Todrias, not all of us are Jedi..."

Asmaria stopped growling and sent a look of silent thanks to Zet. She liked him, which was quite a compliment considering they were supposed to be sworn enemies.
