"Other forms, huh? I do believe we've covered that one." *He gave her a laugh, shaking his head.* "You really think I need covers? I walk around the ship naked half the time."

She opened her mouth to argue but then thought back on her past answers
Oh yeah, hic I guess we did...
Ty giggled and casually rested her head on his shoulder until he mentioned his way of being at home in his ship, to which she sat straight up and stared at him a moment before laughing and shaking her head
Is there any other way to travel!? That's MY preferred method! That is... if Papa would give me another ship... hic But ships aren't cheap and other fatherly lectures that I've heard before...
She smiled with a hint of mischief to the way she quirked her lips and a clear challenge in her sparkling eyes
Fine then, do you have a better answer?

*Time was short as Gavin's freighter made its way over Mos Eisley. Landing in a spot that he had reserved on the way, Gavin landed the ship and began powering down the systems. One step closer to helping Kaytra. Turning to her, he leaned back into the seat.* "Alright, Mos Eisley as requested. From here on, I follow your lead."

*Kaytra let out a sigh and closed her eyes for a moment as she thought of her next move. She opened her eyes and turned to Gavin.* "There's an old parts store near by. I call it a junk store, since half the stuff he sells is salvaged. A Twi'lek owns it, he's a friend of my uncles, and normally knows where their at most of the time." *She stood up and headed for the loading ramp.* "Hopefully he's still alive. He has a bad tendency to not know when to shut his mouth."

*Gavin stood to his feet as he followed Kaytra to the loading ramp and opened it for them to depart.* "Well, let us hope that he has learned to stay silent for a bit."
*As they departed, he quickly felt to make sure his sabers were in place. Those who always seemed to talk too much tended to invite trouble. And now wasn't time for trouble.*

*A grin appeared on Elllies face at Gavins comment.* "Doubt full." *She had grabbed an old brown cloak from a storage closet. Dawning the cloak, she pulled the hood over her head, the only thing visible was the glowing green irises of her eyes. Making her way down the ramp, she left the hangar and entered the crowded streets.*
*Ellie made her way through the crowd, keeping her head down to keep from being noticed. After several minutes of walking, she stopped in front of and old junk filled store. She turned to Gavin and spoke in a low voice.* "Alright, here we are. There is one thing you should know about him. He's not really trusting of most people. Also..I used the term friend loosely. He's not a big fan of my family, but he knows we're less likely to kill him over something small. So, he tends to trade with us more, meaning he keeps close tabs. Just be on guard, we might not be the only ones looking for him. Other clans might be here. Or worse...some one from my family might be here, I'm not sure who they'll react to me." *Taking a deep breath and faced the door.* "Ready?"

*Gavin watched as she grabbed a cloak and wrapped it around her. He pulled his trenchcoat tight as he followed her down the ramp and into the streets.
As they were walking, Gavin let his eyes move to the sky. It had been so long since he was here last. Most of his early childhood was here, making this planet one of his many homes. But time had passed and he found no reason to return, not even during his last exile. Once everything was taken care of, he'd come back and roam the sands for a little while. Hi attention redirected itself forwards as they stopped in front of the shop. He didn't look to her as she spoke, but listened intently. Once she was finished, only nodding. He had expected this whole time that trouble may have ended up finding them, though nothing happened thus far. Still, letting up his guard was not a wise choice.
When she turned to the door and asked if he was ready, he nodded.* "Let's go."

*Kaytra gave a nod at Gavins response. She stepped through the door into the poorly lit dusty room. Her cybernetic eyes quickly adjusted to the dim light, the irises giving off a soft green glow as they did. Carefully she walked amongst the shelves, piles of junk and ship parts scattered about the store. Her eyes carefully scanned about, taking in every detail. Farther ahead she could hear the sounds of someone talking. As she drew closer, she realized that the person was taking to themselves. Kaytra rounded a corner and saw a twi'lek standing over a work table with his back turned to them. She hesitated for a moment before interrupting the Twi'leks rambling.* "Umm...Tabbo."
*The Twi'lek froze, then slowly turned around. His face was gaunt, his eyes hallowed and a thin scar ran from the edge of his nose to the back of his jaw on the right side of his face. He seemed older to Kaytra, but he was the same Twi'lek she remembered. His eyes scanned her for a moment, then Gavin, before speaking in a hoarse voice.* "Who's that? Do I know you?"
*Kaytra looked from Tabbo to Gavin then back again. She knew Tabbo was paranoid, but now he seemed to have completely lost his mind. Taking a hesitant step forward she raised her hands to show that she meant no harm.* "Yes, yes you do. I'm Kaytra. Kaytra Tatham. This.." *She motioned to Gavin.* "is Gavin Phoenix. I need your help Tabbo. I need you.."
*Tabbo's eyes went from Kaytra to the door, then back again before interrupting her.* "Were you followed? Did we see anyone else out there?" *His eyes locked on hers. There was no fear in them, only madness.* "Are you here to kill me." *It wasn't a question. It was a statement.*
*Kaytra shook her head. Tabbo wasn't making any sense.* "No, I'm not here to kill you. I just need your help." *She glanced back at the door then to Tabbo.* "Who is trying to kill you?"
*Before he could respond, a loud crack filled the room, followed by shattering glass and a loud thud as a metal projectile hit the wall. Tabbo let out a well of fear as the street outside filled with rifle fire, and bullets began to fill the room along with several blaster rounds. Instinctively, Kaytra dove behind the counter, along with Tabbo. She knew the sound of slugthrowers when she heard them, having a strange liking for them herself. Next to her she could her Tabbo yelling.* "Your cousin! That crazy women is out to get me! She wants my head and you lead her here!" *Without warning Tabbo dove at her, trying to grab for her neck in an attempt to strangle her.* "You were trying to kill me!" *Tabbo's hands never made it to Kaytra's neck. In one swift move, she grabbed the combat knife from her boot and rammed it into the madman's throat. His eyes widened in surprise as he toppled backwards and died before he hit the floor. The sound of gunfire was never stopped as the attackers poured an unrelenting barrage into the room. From the sound of each slugthrower, Kaytra could tell they were getting closer, it was only a matter of time before the attackers were on the. Cousin or not, Kaytra knew they needed and exit strategy. She turned to Gavin and yelled over the noise.* "We need to get out of here!"

*Gavin followed Kaytra in, keeping a bit behind. As they progressed towards sounds of another talking, he kept his gaze shifting from place to place, his ice blue eyes piercing through the dimly lit room. As they rounded the corner, he noticed the lone Twi'lek talking to himself. He continued to stay back a bit as Kaytra approached him and began speaking. He only let his gaze remain focused on him as the conversation progressed.
He could tell by the way the Tabbo moved and looked between them that things were in an edgy position. Still he remained on guard in case he tried anything. It was odd to him that he interrupted her, concerned that she was followed. Something was off and clearly he felt someone wanted him dead. His faced dropped slightly as they continued talking, Kaytra trying to assure him they meant no harm.
As Kaytra dove behind the counter, Gavin turned and dropped to a knee, his right hand disappearing into his trench coat and to his back. He didn't draw a weapon but only waited, listening as the gunshots began to echo in the streets and filled the room. He was only able to see the few blaster bolts that flew into the room but knew that it wasn't just blasters.
It was then he heard the conversation continue behind the counter, Tabbo yelling that Kaytra's cousin was after him. He stood to his feet slightly and edged backwards as they talked. He felt they had lead her here, but to do so meant she was watching them from the moment he found her on Courscant. It seemed unlikely to him, and hoped that is was nothing more than coincidence. He glanced over the counter just in time to see Kaytra kill Tabbo out of defense. The room began to fill with shots even more, forcing Gavin to dive behind the counter. Leaning up against it, he looked to Kaytra as she talked about them needing to leave.*
"Well, it didn't take long to find trouble." *He paused for a moment.* "Is there a backdoor?"

"It never takes long!" *She glanced around the room. He was right, there might be a back door around her somewhere. At the end of the counter she spotted a door leading into a back room.* "There!" *Keeping low, she darted towards the door. Grabbing the handle, she pushed it open. The room was small and showed not visible exits except for a widow above a desk. Climbing onto the desk, she searched for a way to open the window. Finding none, she smashed out the glass and crawled through. The window lead into a narrow ally way that turned into other passages behind stores and venders. She hit the ground and began to search for any hostiles. Luckily for them, the ally way was empty, for now at least.* "We need to get out of here, not off planet though. If that is my cousin then at least we found my family. Hopefully I can talk some sense into her before she decides to shot us." *She turned and began to make her way down the passage towards what sounded like the streets.*

*Gavin followed behind Katyra, keeping low as they went. He kept his guard up, thinking that having a back door would also mean they were waiting there as well. Entering the office, there wasn't a door, but a window that lead outside. After she had broken the glass and climbed out, he followed, glad to see that no one was waiting for them in the alley. Falling to the ground, he stayed low for a moment before turning to her as she spoke.*
"Well then, I suggest we get moving. if we stay too long, they'll catch on and be on us here. As long as they're shooting at us, we'll get no chance. We need to sneak around and figure out what's going on before making any move against them."
*Reaching into his coat he pulled a lightsaber hilt from the back of his belt, but didn't ignite it. It was a shadowy black, etched with silver runes. The pommel was a curved point with four small claws sticking out over the emitter.*

*Kaytra had to agree with Gavin. Sticking around her was not a good idea. Out of the corner of her eye, she notice that he had pulled a lightsaber off his belt. She truly hoped that it would not come to that.* "Alright, but I don't want to hurt any of them if I don't have to." *Giving a nod, she turned and began to head down the alleyway towards the front of the store. She reached the end of the narrow passage that lead to the main street. Leaning up against the wall of the building and peeked around the corner. Standing there in front of the shop was her cousin. She looked the same as she had the last time Kaytra saw her, except her eyes, they looked colder, more mature. Guarding her cousin was armored soldiers, each armed with blaster carbines. The shooting had stopped but Kaytra could still hear commotion from inside the building. She leaned back against the wall and turned to Gavin.* "Okay. So it seems like she came well prepared. Which is strange giving the person she was after. None the less, she's the person I was looking for." *She slowly breathed in before giving a sigh.* "Would...it be a dumb idea if I just....went out and talked to her right now? I mean if she is out to kill me for some reason, then she'd probably try it anyway. Odds are though is that she doesn't even know I'm alive and that might make her angry, or she might be glad. It's been so long since I've seen her that I don't know how much she's changed, or if she's changed at all."

*Gavin followed Katyra to the end of the alleyway, listening to what she described about the scene. Closing his eyes, He used Force Sight, seeing through the building to where the group was. Indeed she was well prepared, which only gave him a bad feeling.*
"If she came prepared like that, chances are she may have not be coming to simply kill him. She may be hunting someone else, or a group, and he happened to be on the list. Whatever the reason, something just isn't right. And yes, it would be extremely dumb to trying going out there now. If she is trying to kill you, it is best to avoid her and trying to figure out what's going on. Either way, our best bet is to pull away and try to somehow keep tabs on them. She may be family, but considering her team just raided the shop with bullets and such..*He didn't finish the sentence, only took a breath.* "Right now, it's too high a risk."

*Kaytra gave a nod. Carena wouldn't have come here with so many people for just one Twi'lek, she had to be after more targets.* "Alright, we'll tail here and see where she goes. Hopefully they split up so I can get close to her without getting myself killed." *She watched for several minutes as soldiers began to file out one by one. Finally the last of them came out, two were dragging the body of Tabbo. They dropped the dead Twi'lek in front of Carena, the lead trooper telling her what they found in the building. Kaytra watched Carena's expression change from surprise to announce. Somebody else had taken her kill and she didn't like that, and it was recent to. She gave the trooper a quick order that Kaytra couldn't hear, but could only guess what it meant. The trooper gave a nod and began to order the rest of the troops to form groups and fan out.*
*Kaytra leaned up against the wall and waved for Gavin to retreat further down the alleyway. As quickly and quietly as she could she headed farther down the path until she was almost back where they started.* "She sending them out in search parties. This maybe a good chance for me to get closer to Carena. If I can get her attention but not give her a clear shot at me, then maybe I can talk to her without dying. But first, I need to see where she's going."

*Gavin followed Katyra down to the end of the passage, listening to what she said. In the end, there wasn't much choice. It was either run, or try and talk to her. Taking a breath, he looked back towards the street.*
"We should tail her for a bit. Maybe we can pick up on pieces of what she's saying. Otherwise, we can hope they split up enough. It'll be easier to defend against them." *Thinking upon her trying to talk to her, he came up with two ideas.* "I have two options. You can approach her and I'll defend you with a barrier or I can make a projection of you. Either way, it'll be a way to judge her intentions."

*Kaytra let out a low sigh and gave a nod. This wasn't going to be easy, but it needed to be done. As for the method of talking to her cousin, she'd have to think that through, maybe Gavin's plans could work.* "Alright, lets go." *She quickly made her way down the alleyway, opposite the direction they just came. They eventually reached the main raod again, just in time to see her cousin and two guards pass by. Kaytra came to a quick stop and waited for them to pass. Luckily none of them gave a second glance, either that or none of them recognized her wearing the cloak. Slowly Kaytra made her way to the edge of the street and peeked out of the alleyway. Most of the soldiers had dispersed, while only two guards followed her cousin. This was good in Kaytra's mind, less guards meant less trouble.* "It looks like their heading to that warehouse over there. Maybe they set up base there."
*By now the crowd had started to return, most seeing this as nothing more then another daily event in their lives on Tatooine. Kaytra motioned for Gavin to follow. Making sure her hood was up, and her face concealed, she slipped into the crowd and began to tail her cousin at a distance. She would pause every once in a while to make sure no one else had noticed them, or in case her cousin became suspicious. Kaytra paused in front of a vendor booth just long enough to witness her cousin enter a warehouse through a small side door.* "Alright, so we know where their at. Now we just need to get in there and find her. That might be the hard part, since I'm not sure how many guards she actually has." *She hesitated for a moment before speaking.* "Gavin. I'm going to need you to hang back a distance. So we're harder to detect and in case one of us runs into a problem. If...anything does happen to me. Please don't hurt my cousin."

*Gavin followed Kaytra to the end of the alley, coming to a similar halt when her cousin passed. That idea alone bothered him. Though she didn't look back to make sure if she really saw someone or not, he became edgy. He always looked to the realistic side of things, some would call him pessimistic. Truth was, he simply the possibly outcomes. In this case, two strong ones came to the front of his mind. One, she did notice and simply played off not seeing them to lure them in. The other was that her cousin was already aware of her presence here and was, still, luring her out.
Still he followed Kaytra, letting himself fall into the crowd, though a little ways back. She was in a place with the cloak that would blend in. Gavin, however, wasn't with his trench coat. He caught up with her after her cousin disappeared into a warehouse, standing a little ways behind her. He didn't like where things were going and he liked them even less when she suggested him hanging back. There were many things he could do to hide himself from the guards, but he only nodded.*
"Alright, but just be careful. I'll keep tabs on you the best I can so I can aid you when needed." *With that he waited for her to make her move. In the mean time, he began to lower his presence, hoping almost extinguish it entirely.*

*Kaytra never took her eyes off the building in front of her. She knew the risks, but she had to take them. Taking a deep breath, she let it out slowly and began to make her way towards the warehouse. She wasn't going to use the front door, of course, she knew better then that. A short time later, she had made her way to the roof and was peering through a dusty window. Below her was a large storage room filled with crates, armored speeders and surveillance systems. Several guards milled about, none to concerned with their surroundings or actual guard duty. Then Kaytra spotted her, she watched as her cousin entered a small room off to the far side of the building. Kaytra moved silently across the roof of the building till she reached another window closer to her target. Carefully she pried open the window and dropped to the floor below. She hit the floor with utter silence and moved to cover behind a large crate. None of the guards seemed to be paying enough attention to have noticed her. This alone made her feel nervous, were they letting her get this far? It didn't matter, her cousin was just feet away in the next room. Keeping low made for the door and quietly slipped inside.*
*The inside of the room wasn't very large, most of the room was taken up by holo projectors, computers and other pieces of tech. Kaytra didn't have to search long for her Carena amongst all this hardware. Carena Tatham was standing at a desk with her back to Kaytra, peering over some datapad or other piece of collected information. Kaytra had barely set foot in the room when Carena spoke.* "Close the door behind you Kay." *Carena turned around, folding her hands behind her in military fashion. She didn't seem at all surprised to see her supposedly dead cousin standing right in front of her.* "It's been a long time. Hasn't it."
*Kaytra came to a sudden stop and staired at her cousin. Her blood seemed to freeze momentarily. Behind her she heard the door slowly close shut, along with any chance of a quick escape. Giving the room a quick glance, Kaytra realized that she was alone.* "Yeah...yeah it has. How did....how did you know it was me?"
*A small grin graced Carena's face at the question.* "How indeed. I know a lot more about you then you would believe. Your supposed death on Corellia. The time you spent with GALSAF. Even your near death experience death on Coruscant. That one surprised me actually. I thought I did a thero job on that. Didn't expect a Jedi to find you."
*The last statement caught Kaytra more off guard then anything else.* "That was you? Why? Why did you try killing me?"
*The smile faded from Carena's lips as she sat on the edge of the desk.* "That, my dear cousin, will take some explaining to do. Ask me what you will, and I'll tell you what you need to know."
*So they did. For the next two hours, Kaytra listened to everything her cousin had to say. Every question seemed to bring a more painful answer then the next. Kaytra's head hurt when she left the warehouse, the guards simply ignored her as she walked in a daze across the store room. She blinked against the bright sun when she realized that she was outside. Without any destination in mind, she started walking down the street. She felt as if she needed a stiff drink, or to wake up and realize that this was all just some crazy dream.*

*Gavin watched as Kaytra left towards the building. He didn't like letting her go, but he stayed in his place, knowing this was something she needed to do. He wasn't concerned for having troubles on his end. He didn't feel they would be much of a threat. Still, he stayed under cover the best he could. However, something wasn't right. It was unclear whether it was coming from the encounter that was starting to take place inside or if he was being watched.
The time dragged on as Gavin waited. His senses were alert. Not once did he feel any fluctuations coming from the building. There were emotional flares that he could sense from Kaytra, but nothing towards a battle. He would always use Force Sight on and off to see how things were progressing. For the time spent, it seemed they only talked. He was hoping things would end well enough that she could continue on without worry.
As Kaytra made her way out of the warehouse, Gavin had made his way to the side of the warehouse just in sight of the main door. As she walked on, seemingly nowhere, Gavin followed her. He wanted to run up and make sure things were fine, but opted to just tail her instead. From her walk, he could tell something had happened in there, something had been said and it was getting to her. Finally after a few minutes of staying behind, he picked up his pace enough to get beside her. When he spoke, he kept his voice a bit quiet and soft, hoping not to really start her.*
"Kaytra, are you alright?"

*Kaytra was so lost in thought that she didn't even hear Gavin until he was right next to her. She looked up quickly at him.* "What?...oh..I'm...." *She stared down the street for a moment, her mind lost in the world.* "They're not going to help me. There's some kind of dispute going on with the pirate clans right now. So their dealing with that." *She gave a half hearted grin.* "At least they don't want to kill me." *The smile quickly faded from her face.* "There's just so much happening right now."
