Welcome to Gaia! ::

Suddenly the little droid started chirping & whistling at Red. It seemed to become very excited over some information it had discovered.

"What is it R4?" Red asked his droid. "What have you found about this ship?"

Putting the information on the front monitor for Red to see the droid chirped somemore.

"So the ship is a GR-75 medium transport. Ok that at least tells me what kind of ship it is, but not what it was doing here, why was it attacked, & why is there a dead Jedi on board it. Try & get some info on the lightsaber I brought in R4. Scan it for anything that might tell us who weilded this lightsaber."

Hiko made his way to the Caves, semingly oblivious to the wind and the snow.
He caught white figures moving about the Cave Entrance, Snow troopers bu his guessing.
Nothing to be concerned of.
He pressed on, cloaking himself in the Force and bending the stark white of the snow around him.
He continued his approach to the temple as the troopers began to set up a perimeter, the soldiers acting as though the man was not even there.
He slipped past them, the snowtroopers seemingly still ignoring him, for to their visor assisted eyes he was invisible.
"Keep up the good work, boys." He chuckled as he vanished into the cave beyond the troopers.
One of the soldiers snapped his head up, catching the faint words on the wind.
"Sir?" He said, turning to his superior. "Did you say something?"
The elder trooper looked at him and snorted a negative. "No. No get your a** back to work. We have to lock this place down for the survey crews."

(( yay for degree stuffies, Padme! ^_^ ))

"So, like, that's where we're totally going!" Freya said, readying the Aldera Ballet for the relatively short hop to Rodia.

With that, the stars streaked infinity-wards to lines.

"Like, it's not really that long," Freya chuckled. "About a couple of hours."

"So yeah. I wonder what this Luger guy's totally about," she wondered aloud.

Up in the Crimson Sparrows helm, the light for the comm blinked on a off. Armas, earsplugs in and bobbing his head to some techno-like stuff fresh from Corasaunts(sp) "Underground Scene". He scarfed down a pastry-like food and nearly choked as he pulled the plugs out and bashed the button for the interplanetary comm works and all."YO!" He answered."Luger eh? Yea one second.". He turned his seat around and yelled at the top of his lungs, the comm still on."LUGER YOU GOT A CALL!"

"Shut tha hell up yah barv!"He said."Transfering!" Amras yelled again and the comm connection sent through to the center hold."Luger pressed the button and answered back."Someperson lookin for ah bloke by tha name o'Luger?"?" He spoke up for the comm.

A few silent moments went by of Luger stroking his ill-shaved beard." Wut kinda work...?"He said, recommended by the Scions? He hadn't heard from in in forever."I'll give yah mah price for meh an' mah cruw afta I here' tha job."

Several more moments would lapse, as the scanning teams felt the descent of the shuttle halt, and the icy cold winds blow horrendously. Armed with sensor arrays and probes which would give the most sturdy rock a sense of the chills, the team piled out into the snow and trudged towards the temple.

Snowtroopers were good, at least they should be and that's what was said. The scanning crew really held no such admiration for being caught offguard, but the quicker off the planet they could get, the sooner out of the cold they would be.

entering the temple, they began scanning around, room by room, finding more and more traces of a crystal large enough to focus the beam of project coldspear.

It would take nearly half an hour before the first signs of probable crystals came up on the scanners.

"Inform Lord Ferno he may begin his descent momentarily."

"Like, my name is Freya Starsinger," she answered. "We're on our way to Aduba Three, to a safehouse there," she said in an almost whispered tone. "It's like totally out in the sticks, you could say."
