"Are you offering?" Shisstal asked. The man may have been right. Shisstal wasn't much of a fist fighter. He did have a vibroblade knife, but he wasn't sure if it would get him out of a tight spot.

Xel sat there monitoring his opponents, looking for any clues to tip them off of their intention. Their motionless faces said nothing to the Duros. He then looked at his cards and decided to call the round, throwing what was left of his meager chip stack. Mireen dropped out of the pot but Viz, Soap and Jen all wanted to get the rest of Xel's credits. As they flipped over their cards Xel found out that his cards had changed since he last looked. Soap smiled as he brought in the chips as the rest of the team inevitably started to laugh at the Duro's misfortune.
"You lost again, sir? I swear I've never seen anyone so unlucky at sabacc," said Jen.
"Maybe we should start a fund to help him regain some of the credits he's lost all these years," Mireen grinned.
"It wouldn't matter. We'd only be getting all of our money back anyway," stated the Zabrak with a laugh.
"Either way, I get his money so it works," Soap added as everyone burst out laughing.
"I do know a way you can get those cedits back, sir," said Viz.
"If you want me to bet my cigars again, forget it," Xel said. "You already tried once."
"That was only because you somehow got lucky," Jen countered.
"Just b-," Xel began as he received a message on his com link.
"Lord Stryder wishes to see you, Xel Ando," said the voice at the other end.
"Tell him I'm on my way," Xel replied. He turned to his team and said, "Well that didn't take long. Finish up and tell me how many credits Soap won from all of you. I'll give you the details when I get back." Xel then headed to meet with the Jedi wasting no time.
~~~~~~~
"Captain Xel Ando reporting, sir," Xel addressed the Jedi with a salute. "You wanted to talk to me?"

Cene grabbed her clanmate by the Collar ad gave him a playful shake.
"If I wanted them for free, Kor'ika, I'd beat them out of you."
She pulled him close, still smiling and staring into his eyes with a predatory gaze.
"I'm low on cash, but Ive got plenty of other things in my ship that might "grab" your interest, ad'ika. I'm parked on pad 12. Stop by at around at 1900 hours. Oh and you might want to come hungry. I wont tolerate you eating any more processed swill while I'm around."
She let him go with a friendly push and then walked off back to her ship to make preperations, pausing briefly to look back at him with a come-hither gaze and a wink before walking out of sight.

"Very well. The trooper by the acadamy suggested the cantina was a good place to start. Let's go, shall we?" Shisstal said as he continued on his path towards town. He shethed his knife but still felt uneasy. He felt that he was putting too much trust in a total stranger. But mabey this person could prove useful. After all, he did say he had been in a few "scraps". Mabey the first thing Shisstal needed to learn was how to fight others.

Pash led the Sithling into town, subtly out of sight of anyone else.
He needed the comlink off of him, and while he didnt want to kill the boy, he wouldnt lose sleep over it. The acolyte was on a dark path and had given himself fully to it.
He could possibly be convinced however.
He looked at the kid, drawing eye contact.
"Kid, I dont think you really want to be a Sith..." He said with a subtle wave of his hand, employing a Jedi Mind trick on the untrained apprentice.

Lord Stryder turned to face the man, backlit by the hologram.
"Captain Ando. Your reputation proceeds you. At ease. I take it your flight here was uneventful?"

"[Anything to get off this rock.]" Katarra growled as she began starting the engines up, running through diagnostic routines, as she pulled her headset on and tied it into her computer system to communicate with the control tower. The one downside to not speaking basic was she had to rely on her computer translator linked into the ship, which often wasn't too reliable. But that could be fixed now with her new companion.
"[Onderon?]" She asked for confirmation, as they readied to jet up as she throttled the sub-light engines.

"The flight gave me some time to work on my side projects, but I haven't been able to complete them. That aside, I see your defense of Tett went off without a hitch. So what do you have in mind for the next operation, sir?" Xel asked the Jedi commander.

“Onderon.” Melissa confirmed, as she checked the systems on her side of the cockpit. “Ship sensors on line, confirming curse trajectory with ground control. I’ll start working on the Astrogation computations, should be ready by the time we hit the jump point.” She reached over and keyed up the Nav-computer system. “I tell you I’m glad to get off this rock my own self. Been nothing but bar room brawls and firefights lately, raising all types of ruckus.” She rambled as she worked.

Shisstal watched as the man waved his hand in front of his face. Suddenly Shisstal felt somewhat dazed and confused. He heard what the man said. "Why not?" he asked still dazed. Normally, he would have disagreed and argued, but he felt strange this time.

"You're a good kid, got a long life ahead of you. You should go home and rethink your life." Pash said putting a bit more strength into "convincing" the young man with the Force.

Katarra engaged the throttle, and the ship gave a mighty shudder as the sub-light engines fired up, and slowly the ship began to lift as she pulled back on the steerage. The ship's structure groaned a little as the change in gravity took hold as the dampeners engaged, and the ship slowly tilted up aiming towards the sky as she pulsed the sublights to breakaway speed.
The planet began to shrink behind them as the ship lifted away from the surface, into the atmosphere, shaking a bit as they encountered turbulance, but there was nothing too severe in the weather category, so soon enough the turbulance stopped as they entered space.
Katarra leaned back as she powered the engines back as Mellissa finished making calculations for Hyperspace travel.
"[I don't mind a good fight now and then.]" She grinned. "[Only few tend to want to have a round with me for some strange reason.... Can't figure out why.]"

“Gee, I wonder why.” Melissa grinned as she finished the punching in the coordinates to the nav-computer. “I wouldn’t want to go a round with you, that’s for sure.” She leaned back in her seat and looked at the Katarra. “Done. Nav-comp is programmed and ready.”

"[Right. Hold on to your butts.]" Katarra rumbled as she punched the nav-computer active, and then slid the hyperspace slider back, and the ship suddenly zipped forward into streaking blue twisting tunnel of lights.
"[Right... That's that, we're on our way.]" She turned back towards Melissa, putting the comm headset back on the dash as she leaned back. "[So...wanna tell me what that light weapon thing you used was? That intruder had one too, I've never seen one before... what is it?]"
