"Oh. I'm sorry." Phoenix said softly.
The two sat there quiet for what seemed like eternity, until Phoenix suddenly dove underwater and grabbed Angel from underneath, pulling her down as well, then released her and came up laughing.

The Trandoshan Guard Continued to watch the front door of the Trest Casino. things were going as well as usual for him, being a doorman/bouncer and all. He was getting Hungry though, but then again, Dosh were always hungry.
"Excuse me my scaly friend, But i'll need you to step aside." A calm, confident voice said to him. The Dosh looked at the speaker, a well dressed, dark skinned humanoid with a mustache.
The Dosh looked a bit puzzled."Haven't I seen you before?"
The man smiled a toothy grin."Well I hope so friend. I was the Baron administrator awhile back. I'm kinda famous."
The Reptile's eyes looked as they would Roll out of his head."You! You're General Calrissian!"
"Thats what they call me." the man Beamed. "But seriously, settle down my friend. I just was in town to see some old friends and I thought 'hey, why not play a few hands at the Trest, for old times sake.' don't make a big deal out of it. Im kinda tryin' to keep a low profile."
"Of course! Go Right in sir!"
The man tipped a salute to the Dosh and opened the Door.
It was at this time that the defense systems of the Casino kicked in. there was an audible hum and Lando Calrissian was replaced by Cale Darksun wearing a holographic image disquiser. Cale slapped himself upside the head."sith! the security Counter measures! damnit!"
A scaly hand clamped down on Cale's shoulder....

"Hey mate what are you doing to that poor guy?" HAcker asked as he came around the corner and started walking towards the dosh as he slapped his hand on Cale's shoulder. "I think you should leave our friend here alone and stop harrasing him. Trust me he is not underage and is definately not crooked in any way. Those cheating implements were planted by some of his drunk mates earlier who I have been telling of for quite awhile. He is one of the students here on a trip and today is their free night. Now please let me and him pass or I am afraid I shall have to talk to your superiors." As he neared the end of the speech he started shouting. 'Well I probally won't talk to your superiors but you will definately be fired.' He thought and started laughing in his mind.

The Dosh snarled at the man but let Cale go and resumed his Post. Cale waved good by to his antagonist and laid his hand comraderly on the newcomer's shoulder. "well lets go to the bar buddy." as they walked to the lounge Cale removed his hand and said in a low voice: "How long have you been watching me 'buddy'? becasue that kind of information makes me a little uneasy. You want something from me don't you?" although his face was cheery, his voice was deadly serious.

"Well really it matters if my perceptions are coorect about you." HAcker said as they approached the bar. "Would you be interested in a small little job that we would be willing to pay for. The we shouldn't mean anything to you. FO all you know I am your employer ok?" HE asked before turning towards one of the barmen and gaining his attention and ordered a drink. "What do you want then firend? DOn't worry i'm paying. I feel lucky tonight." Hacker said smiling broadly at his inside joke.

"I'll take water. I don't drink with a nameless being. especially when they come to me with a buisness proposition. If you ask me, and don't, it sounds suspicious." Cale popped himself a breath mint when his water showed up. he glanced over at the man and took a swig of his water."now what about this buisness proposition you have for me. And why do you need me?"

Angel came up after being pulled under by suprise, and laughed a little. Attempting to get the Dark Lord back, she tried to tackle him, but she wasn't high enough in the water to do so, and instead merely came into his arms. After realizing she hadn't pushed him under, she blushed a little from embarrassment since she was now close to being in a cuddling position with him. She quickly pushed off from him and said, " So... should we go see the sights now, or what? "

Suddenly, Phoenix found Angel in his arms, but two seconds later she was gone. He felt a little dissapointed, but the feeling shrugged off.
"Yeah okay, lets go."
Phoenix Force-pushed himself out of the water, and then dried himself off with a heating towel.
After putting on some clothes, he waited patiently for Angel.

Finally concluding his discussions with the council and everyone else, Neb decided to tell the senator the news. He walked over to the senator's room, and hesitated to knock.

Angel dried herself and got dressed. She felt something was off, and after pausing for a moment to sense the Force, she confirmed it. She could feel the Force from the Jedi behind the door. Turning to the Dark Lord, she said, " It appears you have a visitor. "

"s**t...the damned old fool will want to come with us wherever the hell we go..."
Rather annoyed, Phoenix used the force to unlock the door, and beckoned for the Jedi to come in.

"Well me and a few of my friends have just got a rather large job and we will need help pullling it off. I'm telling you this is a chance to make a name for yourself and make your name go down in history, rather then the normal mercinary life. If you are intrested just come to this building." HAcker said picking up a napkin and scribbling the adress of Guy's flat onto it. "Just ask for Guy and say that H sent ya to try out. He should let you in. Don't anger him and becareful as he tends to forget things and so is very easy to annoy." Hacker said before standing up and starting to wander over to his chosen machine. He typed the code into a small cuboid that he had got from his pocket and then started to play. He was soon well up on money and would probally soon beat the largest winning streak of the casino.

Cale looked at the adress written on the napkin. Something was going down, something he wasn't sure he wanted to be a part of. From the way the man talked, it sounded suspicious. Despite his questions, he was no closer to finding out what it was. What it did sound like was terrorism. He had heard similar words from Radicals across the galaxy, petty thugs who thought a few acts of violence would topple the goverment of their worlds or make them famous.
On the plus side, the guy didn't really know who Cale was. He never addressed Cale by name, plus he lumped him into the genaric mercenary bracket. For a man who seemed to be in the know, he really didn't have a clue.
Cale sucked on his breathmint thoughtfully and looked at the napkin again. Did he really want the kind of fame ? But if not, could he ingore something like this?

"Well senator, I have good news and bad news." Neb started, knowing precisely what to say.
"Good news is that you won't have to put up with me anymore." Neb felt down, knowing this was more than true. Nobody could contain that much emotion that the Senator displayed. "I know how much happier that makes you. Albeit, I've been quite a burden on your apprenticed friend, and she's just as elated as you are. However, I do hope that one day, we may see eye to eye, and you will accept me as a friend as I you."
"The bad news, is that even though you are becoming rid of me, you are stuck with another bodyguard, and though not a jedi, someone else. He is recommended by the council. He will arrive sometime after the meeting tomorrow, and will accompany you like I have. He goes by the name of Dious Kellus, or Di for short."
Neb stared at the situation, as the two were dressing up. Being of that age, he guessed a night on the town.
"You may want to consider sending your assistant out 15 minutes beforehand, just to make it not look like you picked up someone of.... pleasureable occupations. Or you can just stay in your room, and play cards. Though I doubt that's what you want to do. No matter, I have still that order. Just keep reminding yourself, one more day..." He trailed off, semi-depressed.
