"Boy, we're getting alot of newcomers aren't we," Xeron joked as he looked at Monkuta. "Hey how much longer this gonna take? I wanna stretch my legs in the court yard," he questioned almost mockingly towards the debriefer.

Anwa's eyes widened slightly at the mention of the possibility of another member of her species undercover in the Stark Group. "I... I'm not sure. I mean, I wouldn't think so. Most Shi'ido are so shy they barely want to leave the planet. I had to fight my family to be allowed to come here, and I was already and adult by the time I was discovered.
But... I suppose it's possible. I'm sad to say, the possibility of other shapeshifters being present never crossed my mind. I might have been able to detect them had I been paying any attention, but I was more concerned with not being discovered."
She was interupted (though she's done talking) by the arrival of another jedi; Monkuta. She sat back, giving the newest arrival a smile of greeting. She listened to the exchange and was a bit taken aback at Xeron's impatient mocking of the debriefer. True, the man was a fairly easy target, but there was no call to be rude.

"Well, anyways..." The extra Orealis disappeared. "That was just an example. Illusions are the speciality of the Fallanassi. You can use it to change what you look like, make your fleet look bigger or smaller, any number of things."

Monkuta stood silently - smiling a bit - content to let the four talk and just go along with any decision. He shifted his eyes between each jedi every few seconds, gathering as much as he could from their speech.

"Well then I think that we should try and figure out who is really running this operation", Reimos said in response to Anwa. "I suggest that we also try and find out where their operations outside of their main planet, are too. Only problem is that we can only do one thing at a time. So which do we choose?", he asked the group. The datapad in his pocket had a few clues as to where to look for both things. But it would be useless unless they were determined.

Xeron was thinking over things intencly now, he furrowed his brow and looked as if he were gnawing on leather. Looking at every person in turn, Xeron was waiting for someone to break the tension. "Ahem, I feel it makes sense to start climbing a ladder from a lower rung instead of reaching for a higher rung. I say we find their operations off their main planet," he said after a few more seconds, and with some suprise to himself.

"Well, do you mind if I join you on your mission? This sounds like a serious problem, and I would be happy to help. For starters, I like Xeron's idea of starting at the bottom. Nobody gets things done without leaving a paper trail, so it would be easiest to get at there."
I wonder what this enemy's plan is? What could they possibly hope to achieve?

((BEHOLD!!! THE INTRODUCTION OF...[INSERT DRAMATIC MUSIC HERE]... COMMANDER TODRIAS MARA!!!))
Like always, the corridors of the battle frigate Jaspyn stood silent as the ship slid through hyperspace. Like always, the monitoring technology lining the walls of the bridge blipped and chirped as they went through their own specific sub-routines. Like always, crewmen and women worked away as they checked and re-checked data. Like always, Commander Todrias Mara sat in the command seat of the bridge while catching up on a good book. Always the same.
"Sir, we are almost out of hyperspace. In T-minus 5 minutes," one of the crewmen called to the commander. Todrias gave a long sigh, slid his bookmark into place, and closed the book with a loud 'thunk'.
"Man hyperspace gets old after 40 years of it," Todrias said as he stood up and stretched, "Send a message over the comm, and tell the crew to return to their stations."
"Yes Sir!"
Todrias gave another sigh, and went to the view port to watch their exit from hyperspace.

((Very professional. I'm off after this post due to a soccer game)) "As it seems that three out of the five jedi here have voted for finding the several 'outposts' that this group might be working out of, we might as well go for it", Reimos said. He stood up and brought out his datapad again. He set it on the table, and brought up a different holographic display this time. It was a map of the galaxy, with several planets being color coded. "This map shows the planets that have had frequent sitings of this group. The ones in red", he pointed out "are the ones that have seen the most of the group. And it just so happens, that there are five of them" He brought up another display showing the five planets. "We have Ord Mantell, Taanab, Ryloth, Kuat, and Coruscant. Do I have any takers?", he asked. Sitting back down in his seat.

Monkuta shook his head slowly. "Five outposts and five jedi? I'm not liking that coincidence. We should go in a group of two and three, splitting up two of the five to each group, then meet at the remaining outpost as a full group." He paused for a moment, not sure if they were listening or not, then continued, "Whether this is just spy work or it turns violent, a single person is often not enough." The slight smile never left his face while he talked, but his eyes easily told that he was completely serious. He shrugged and said, "Just a thought."

Xeron nodded slowly as he listened. "I believe grouping by twos is a good idea, however, there are also other things besides opposition when considering these things. Is there an ultimatum for the data? What kind of opposition would we be facing?" Xeron said in a low and serious tone. "But, if it is possible, I would greatly enjoy taking Taanab. Oh it has been ages since I was last there," he said in his more usual tone.

"That's fine by me. But then we'll have to choose less planets.... So we'll start out with Taanab and Ord Mantell, with groups of two and three. Then we'll go to Ryloth and Kuat, with groups of two and two, the third person can head to Coruscant and get something set up for the rest of us", Reimos said. he pressed a few button on his datapad, and the hologram changed. Now it showed the progression between planets. "So I'll put Monkuta, Xeron, and me on Taanab. Orealis and Anwa can go to Ord Mantell", Reimos said as he pressed a few buttons to show the progression of planets "Then when we are done with those planets, I'll head to Coruscant and get it ready for everyone else. Xeron's group will head to Kuat, and Orealis's group will head to Ryloth", again Reimos showed the progression of the planets. "Any Questions?"

Ta-Kura snuck back into the doorway and watched for much longer this time, eyes slowly widening in awe of their intelligence. They were so smart and powerful. The ripples he usually felt from people were waves in this room.
A powerful realization gripped him, bringing him to the conclusion that he needed to be decisive, just like them. If they were splitting up to go investigate whatever it was they were discussing-he hadn't picked up enough details to know for sure-that meant his time was limited. He needed to introduce himself, but how?
'Well, no way better than the easy way,' he decided and stepped into the doorway, into full view.
"Excuse me?" He said, his voice not loud enough to draw attention to himself. He cleared his throat and repeated himself. "Excuse me, I'm sorry to interrupt," he said, looking around nervously at all the powerful Jedi in the room. "But I'm looking to be tested, to become a Jedi someday."
He twitched his headtails in uneasy anticipation and averted his eyes to floor while he waited for Reimos or another to answer him.

Monkuta shook his head. "I've no problems with the plan," he said calmly. He heard a voice from the doorway and looked towards it to see a young looking Twi'lek standing before them shyly. "Tested, hm?" He looked to Reimos, feeling it wasn't his place in this conversation.

((just for clarification: my char. Todrias is in green, and Xeron is now going to be in orange. just so you don't get confusled 3nodding
and uh, odd question, what planet is the jedi academy on?))
The Jaspyn slid out of hyperspace far above the planet of Corillia(sp?), followed closely by a half a dozen other vessels. Commander Todrias gazed out the view port of the bridge at the sprawling surface of the planet with a slight smile on his face. "Ah nothing can compare to the feeling of looking at a planet from above," Todrias stated as he stepped back from the view port. As he moved around the bridge he looked at the many view screens and checked to make sure everyone was on task.
"Corporal Jarad, relay a message to the escort vessels that we are pick up orbit around Corillia and its moon Talus," he said to one of the comm officers.
"Right away Sir!" replied the officer.
Taking a seat once more in the command seat, Todrias sat back to relax.
When Reimos had finished the instructions, Xeron stood up and stretched. "Well that sounds wonderful. Unless there is anything left to attend to, I would like," Xeron said just as he heard someone speaking. Xeron blinked and looked at the twi'lek. "Well, young twi'lek, you want to be a Jedi eh? This probably is not the best time for deciding that," he said slowly. "Oh well, could we have your name anyway," he said with a laugh.
