Erien made the finishing touches to her repairs and started for the base exit. Her repairs had not been difficult but she did have to replace the synth skin over her torso. There was still a cut in her jump suit from where the saber had sliced her. Erien wanted to head for the cantina section again and see if she could pick up on who that Jedi was who attacked her and maybe even where the Jedi were so she could maybe appeal to the High Lord.

Be mindful of your anger, A'kire. This one can sense things quite easily. He seems aloof at times, but you still know nothing of him or the Jawa. Don't be as quick to action as you usually are. When the time comes, you'll taste it in the air.
The Twi'lek nodded and lit up another cigarra. Although the idea to drug Stokhli and treat him as a possible deserter would be amusing for her, Davth was right on the issue. If Stokhli knew anything more on the holocron, it would be beneficial. If A'kire's plan had gone ahead, surely the Jawa would say nothing if not attack in retaliation. He was small, but what she saw earlier was impressive.
"Perhaps you are right, Davth. We don't want our Jawa friend to decide that he's better off hiding any extra information. We'll wait for his arrival, if he arrives, and then perhaps see where he had snuck off to and if he has anything more to tell us now that we're away from that crowded cantina."

The Togruta smiled at his companion's decision to see the wisdom in his approach to their short little friend. "Exactly my dear, if he suspects an interrogation he is more than likely to with hold information from us and may try to cheat us out of our cut and I don't like that one bit." his hand made its way to the blaster in his waistband with a smirk. He was trying to keep up the care free togruta appearance he had created back in the cantina.
"Ah speaking of the cantina, you didn't happen to see me dancing on stage did you?" he asked with a chuckle hoping she hadn't he had, had fun but his dancing was incredibly sloppy. "I have no doubt that you could easily show me a thing or two, if we have time of course."

"well seems like a simple plan to me Master" hopefully the Force would be with them and things would run smoothly.
"if you need me i'm going to meditate in the hold." with that Kad grabbed his bag and walked to the hold.
when he got there he removed his jacket and applied a bacta patch. and he sat down to meditate, he ignited his lightsabers and used the Force to levitate them in front of him. Starring into their argent blades he sank deep into the Force...

Esuritio leapt off of his swoop bike and landed gracefully in front of the puny Trandoshan bouncers.
They both twitched nervously and raised their Vibroswords, with little effect.
The High Lord snatched one of their swords and snapped it with ease.
"Now that we have the pleasantries out of the way, boys. Je'daii... Carrying weapons like these..." He drew his lightsaber and ignited it "Where?" He asked calmly.
Without uttering a word, they pointed to the door behind them.
"Disturb me or anything that happens in the cantina and you WILL share the same fate as that pathetic Echani sword you drew."
Ignoring their cursing, he raised his cloak, masked his force signature and slowly entered the bar.
Esuritio was ready to destroy the Je'daii's hope... By exacting his revenge... Not on the woman who caught him off-guard... But by facing off with the head of the Order himself...

"I do not believe I saw you dancing. It must have been quite the spectacle. Was it part of a bet or a dare, or were you just looking to have fun? Either way, I could show you a few moves, but I don't believe you have the right figure to make it look as enticing as it should be."
A'kire's lekku suddenly twitched. Something big was going on, but it was too far away for her to really sense anything else. She anxiously tapped her fingers on the table, glancing around the room to try and take her mind off of whatever was going on. Try as she might, it wasn't working. Whatever or whoever was causing such a stir had to be important and extremely powerful.
Dammit....I can feel this.....even slightly. I want to know more.
"So......until Stokhli gets here, care for a game of pazaak? I'm not wasting any credits on this game, so unless you can think of another thing to make this more interesting, I say we play to waste time until Stokhli gets here. If he cooperates, fine. If he doesn't, then we go with my plan."

It took him a while, but Stokhli finally found his way back to the togrutas ship. He couldn't help but breath a sigh of relief, because if he had taken any longer than he might have been noticed. He checked his bag for the two extra rebreathers, as well as the various quarantine gear that may be required. Neimodian wasn't under quarantine at the moment, but he wasn't taking any chances, especially with two other people.
"Ok stokes, they probly dont even know you were gone. Just act casual. " he quickly walked into the ship, lowering his wide brimmed hat in some futile attempt to divert attention from himself.

"Hm...?" Jri-den finally realized that this girl kept calling him "Master". "Young one, I'm no 'master'... I'm only a padawan like you." When she asked him about the Temple, he didn't know what to say. He had never really developed an opinion on it. This girl had no idea how unusual he was, so he needed a way to dodge the question. "You will see the Temple in all its glory when we return. For now, rest... You've had a rough day so far..." He carried her to one of the empty sleeping quarters, placing her gently under the covers. "Sleep well..." As much as Jri-den wanted to go back to his meditation, something just felt wrong about leaving her there with no protection. He decided to sit on the bed across from hers and meditate there.

Lowrak nodded and let Kad go to where he could meditate, he would meditate as well but he needed to keep his attention on the ship. He continued to monitor the vessel when he sensed it, a strong, evil presence was nearby, he knew it had to be a powerful dark lord of the Sith and it was heading to Elyria. All he could do was hope everything turns out well for her, he was more into this mission.

Before Davth could even utter a response to her question, A'kire sensed another force sensitive being coming onboard. Her lekku picked up on the subtle vibrations coming up the landing ramp and instantly knew who it was. Stokhli had finally shown his face so to speak and rejoined the group upon the Togruta's ship. Instantly A'kire noticed that the way the Jawa entered as well as body language reeked of sneakiness and suspicion. That hat of his hiding the lies tricks and numerous secrets being kept.
She turned in her seat to face the Jawa, seeing past his little diversion and grinned widely. Her teeth visible only enough to see the razor-sharp edge point each had. Kicking her boots up and onto the table once again, she lit up another cigarra, smoke coiling from the lit end as she blew smoke rings towards the ceiling of the ship. Her eyes scanned the Jawa up and down then closing her eyes to a fairly seductive half-lid before she spoke.
"Stokhli, you've returned to us." She said in a softer, devious tone "Davth and I were beginning to worry if you had run into some trouble on your way here. We thought you were right behind us when we boarded. Apparently your stature makes it useful to sneak away quietly enough for anyone to hear. It took the both of us until just recently to notice your absence."
Filthy sand rat. One wrong move and I'll shove my saber through your damned face!
"What kept you so long? We were getting ready to leave and find the holocron. We were going to split the credits, remember?"
Until you find it before Davth and I do and make off with it on your own, you sniveling thief!!"
Despite the seething rage A'kire felt deep down inside, she kept the same calm, semi-seductive look on her face. She had asked the Jawa what had happened. Now all the Twi'lek had to do was wait for an answer. Depending on what type of answer was what would decide her next move. Stokhli was untrustable in A'kire's eyes. Davth was suspicious, but she had a feeling he could be won over easily. The Jawa on the other hand was nothing but trouble, and A'kire was eager to call him out on it.

A bright smile appears on the young girl's face, her eyes seem to glisten like snow flakes under the light as the young man picks up. The very mention of "padawan" made her feel happy. He was gentle, placing her under the silky covers.
"You have a Master too?" She asks rolling on her side, snuggling her cheek on the white pillow case. Her icy stare filled with happiness and a hint of sorrow as she stared at the young man.
"I lost mine..." She whispers fighting back tears, " I have no clue about the Order, just the war and what Master Kraine has taught me over all the years I have been by his side..Do you know the Sith Lord who goes by the name of X? He is the one who took my Master's life and now..He is after me... Her voice grows quiter as she recalls the Sith Lord's cruel words, "Follow me if you dare, young Je'daii, but now this..Once you do your life will belong to me."
She rolls on her back gazing into a steel ceiling, she didn't know if the other padawan was listening through his mediation, but at least she told someone..maybe the council would know who this mysterious Sith Lord was and could shield her from his evil grip, but even so, why would he want a padawan like her?

Stokhli paused before turning to the obnoxiously smug twi'lek, he couldn't help but snicker at the rediculous pose, as if she had figured him out......
"Yeah, I remember. I also seem to recall you leaving for a while as well. But I thought you'd be happy A'kire," he grinned mischievously " after all, you didnt even have to throw some credits in my face....." his accent had taken a noticeable change, turning from the harsh streaking accent of his native tongue, to a somewhat softer, impish tone. His speech patterns had changed as well, giving him the overall impression of a smug teenager."There are many things you don't know about me, and I fully intend to keep it that way, but I'd recommend you worry about your own affairs before you go meddling into mine, " he pulled off his glowing goggles, polishing the softly glowing lenses, and taking great care to avoid direct light. " If you MUST know, I was off returning a rental ship. I AM an off worlder after all, It's not like I walked here. Nice planet though. It's crowded. I like that." he grinned as he rummaged though his satchel. " I got you two something. Quarantine gear. I figure neither of you thought to pick some up? If we're going any where close to a ship full of neimodians, you might want to wear these."

"I did leave, but I also recall making it known that I would be retrieving things from my apartment. You left so silently that nobody knew where you had went. It was too sneaky of an action to not to become suspicious. You are the one who knows the most about this holocron."
A'kire ignored the comment Stokhli made about the credits and instead listened halfheartedly to his babbling. She would keep her eyes on him at all times, as she was sure he would do to her. The only thing that actually caught her attention was the mention of Quarantine gear and the neiomodians.
"How many of them do you think will be there? If things get ugly, I want to know who we're up against. It's good to know these things."

Nar Shaddaa - The Rusty Blaster Cantina
Crap. Why did Drax have to be here?
Ori began to anticipate a heavy confrontation the moment he noticed Drax, a no nonsense mercenary, sitting in the back of the cantina. Ori tried his hardest to exit the building as soon as he possibly could before Drax had the opportunity to notice him, but now he seemed to be talking to a girl that bumped into the hooded Nagai on his way out. The mere fact that Drax is standing still and listening to hear speak says this is something Ori needs to take seriously. But what to do? On one hand Ori and Lanth already pretty much have this job wrapped up. Take the mark to the ship, get back to the client, get paid. Easy money. On the other hand, Ori could stick around and try to gather as much info as he could about whatever the iron giant's lady friend has to tell him. However this would undoubtedly end in a confrontation with Drax, and if Drax is here, so is his crew.
CRAP! Ori completely forgot about Drax's crew. They must have been here scoping out the same job. They're probably on their way to Lanth right now.
The pale figure fumbled with his wrist mounted communicator as he began to circle back to the rear of the cantina in an attempt to spy on Drax and the girl without drawing attention.
"Lanth, I've got bad news and worse news." Ori shouted quietly.
"Give me the bad news with extra salt," his brother responded.
"Drax is here,"
"Damn it. What's the worse news?"
"Well,-"
"Don't tell me. His team is on their way to me and the mark right now, aren't they?"
"Bingo."
"So what's the plan?"
Ori paused for a brief moment. By this point he had made his way into a crowd of gamblers that were too drunk to notice him. He could see and hear Drax and his companion clearly.
"The plan is, you fight the bad guys, lose them, and get the mark back to the ship,"
"What are you gonna do?"
"I'm going to stay here and enjoy another drink,"
"You're a real mastermind,"
"Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be right there with you... but I've got a feeling about this girl. I have to see where this goes,"
"Well the welcoming party just got here. I'll see you on the other side,"
"Oya!"
"Oya!"
Ori was just about to order another drink when he heard it. Lan Riso
Something inside of Ori snapped. He rushed in a straight line towards the two. He drew both of his blasters, aiming one at the strange girl's head, and the other at Drax's.
"What do you know about Lan Riso?!"

The togruta was smirking as he thought of what to say to his companions comment 'Well i'm sure you could show me a few more dance moves, or something else, my pazak game is not the sharpest.' however before he could speak he could hear Stokhli coming up the ramp.
Davth was leaning back in his chair listening to them go back and forth it was rather entertaining when he wasn't the one arguing with some one. Once they started to discuss where they were going he frowned "Why did it have to be a place that's so humid?" he was rather suspicious as to why there short friend had not informed them of where they were going, but then again he would have been rather concerned to hear about quarantine gear. "A'kire is right, we are going to need to know what we are up against, and why you feel we are going to need quarantine gear?"
He scrunched his face for a second before standing up, "You know what, I'm going to to warp up the engines and get ready to leave and then one of you come join me in the cockpit." with a wave of his hand he turned and began to walk down the corridor. Popping down in the captains chair he smirked as he began to start up the engines and prepare for the launch, he was new to the whole piloting thing but he was confident he would figure it out. After several tries he got the engines warming up, and asked for clearance to leave the moon, not exactly that he was going to wait if they said no, the sooner he was away from all of these other Je'daii the better he would feel. They were good people and all but they viewed his methods and ideals to be incredibly strange, he felt the same way but he was supposed to be on Tython and wanted to get this done before to many people noticed his absence. 'Something isn't checking out with his story, if he had a ship why did he need help? On that matter who loans a ship to a Jawa, its not like a majority of the populace trusts them, sure they are traders but it seems rather risky to me. Then again I hardly know the guy, maybe he is some crack pilot and saved some humans from those sand people and rented the ship to him as a favor.' he shrugged letting himself think while he waited for the clearance.
