Zalor felt bad that Tanara was obviously hurt by his initial disappointment. In truth, this was good news, and Zalor was elated. He decided to cheer Tanara up by letting his newfound optimism show. He smiled brightly.
"No - don't apologize, Tanara! This is great!"
Zalor pointed to the holographic screen of code from Artoo's display. Even though he couldn't understand the code, he knew that it contained information they could use to track down their friends, and that's all Zalor cared about.
"You know how to track those codes! If there are any Jedi Shadows out there, communicating with each other, we can find them! We can find Sayra, Vincent, Asha, Mom, everyone else that might be out there! We can track them down while we're bouncing the cosmos with Master Raven!"
[Beep-whistle-click] Artoo seemed to echo Zalor's enthusiasm.

Loki looked thoughtfully at Zalor and nodded about the Villa. "We arrived yesterday early in the morning." Loki stated flatly then Zalor asked another question and closed his eye in thought, the first order wanted many things from Anna, but which parts to impart to Zalor. Loki decided it best to go with the truth. "To predict, alter, and control the future." Loki said simply his eye opening. "They could predict battles, using Anna's power and a machine called the Array, the could foresee trouble years ahead and stop it. Any one who dared fight them would have been blind. Totally." Loki said calmly. "She was in a containment tube, hooked to a machine a piece of property, I know that pain. So did my brother." Loki sated, this time there was an edge to his voice as vivid memories of his own time in a similar situation surfaced he brushed them aside as Taryn spoke and called him a Jedi. "Firstly sir, I am no Jedi. I am a..." Loki paused as he felt a sense of emotion from Anna, not fear but perhaps danger? This bond was strange. He looked at Zalor. "I am a former Sith Lord. I have renounced that title in favor of bettering the galaxy for the greater good." Loki stated flatly as he looked back to Tyran. "As for how long Zalor stays with us, that is not up to him, or I or even anyone to decide. That is in the hands of the Force." Loki said sagely and solemnly. "He could die, I could, we all could." Loki finished without much pause. "As to your second question, he will be doing what he was trained for, what he was born for. Who he truly is. For you see he can strip the robes off, and disclaim the mantle, play at innkeeper, but he in his heart." Loki reached out a robotic finger and gently touched Zalor's chest with it." He is a Jedi, for long I have hated Jedi and their ideals and ways, but I truly believe the Sith are misguided." Loki said admitting that his life was essentially a lie at least to Zalor and Tanara.
"Zalor already knows the truth, he knows the risk." Loki finished his hand now flat upon the table as he turned and listened to Tanara's confession, he made a hmm sound as he eyed her looking her over closely, strange to keep something so secret Loki thought but not strange considering her relations to clan Ragnos. Loki listened to Zalor's response perhaps first they should seek Zalor's friends the more allies against this growing threat the better. "That is most good news Tanara." Loki said to her. |

It had been a bit of time sense the Polydroxol dismissed himself. He had now slipped into the cafeteria rather quietly- and quite unnoticed while the conversations were going on in flamboyant fashion. Perhaps the only persons who might notice him would be Dominic and Lavi- considering they weren't caught up in some serious talking. What ever the case, he looked absolutely better- though slightly thinner, and not as polished as he did this morning when the first left for Theed.
Hmmm- Jedi Shadows.... Farris mused as he slowly made his way over to the bar again. He tossed a look at Zalor, Loki and Tinara. You say that out loud like it's not a secret organization. He gave a rye smile- just to show he didn't mean any harm. Perhaps the one who might fine the comment actually funny might be Dominic, but Farris wasn't sure. He was, actually surprised that they were discussing the subject so out in the opened. Tinara had just made herself the ultimate target for anyone who might be the Shadow's enemy, and no one had asked Farris his motives for even being around- led alone Lavinia, OR The Sith Agent Dominion.
The Polydroxol cleared his throat, and looked back at Taryn again, his smile becoming less warding and more friendly. I'll take that water now- if you don't mind. Thank you very much for all your help. I honestly don't know if I'd be walking without it. He said to the older man, quite seriously. Without the odd mix of stuff he had acquired from the Inn, the Polydroxol was quite sure his form wouldn't be very humanoid for long.
He gave a quick glance and smile to Lavinia and Dom, glad to see both of them still here. Once he rehydrated, he'd be good to go.

If you are sure you're okay. I would help if I can. *Lavi walked gracefully along side him, her long green feathery dress swishing along the floor. She watched him quietly, not knowing anyone else at all she figured she would just stick with him until Farris returned at least.*In my life? Not really. Not since I lost track of Daedalus. I spent most my time since then helping however I could at the RDMC. *Thinking about Daed she sighs softly, her biggest failure.
"Tell me about the-" He was about to speak, then he heard a name be called. Not a name of a person, but an organization. Shadows. The ones Loki were talking to at the bar kept saying that word, and Dominic kept an eye from his corner on them. "Sorry, tell me about the RDMC." Dominic would continue, but focus his ears as much as he could on the conversation.
His mind began to work just like nothing had happened and he was a step away from being hunted. So, they were talking about the elusive Jedi Shadows, now broken apart and all but destroyed. He had only fought one of them before, and they were arguably sneakier than he was, same goes for speed as well. Arguably because Dominic found him out right before the Jedi got the drop on the Sith Agent. Would have been killed if Ashlyn hadn't literally stepped in, and stepped through him.
That red Twi'lek... she kept their codes? Knew where the last ones were hiding? If he was in his right mind, which he might be, he could definitely tag her for the Program. Not for an Agent, but someone to be captured and interrogated. Someone with that high of a standing and knowledge for a group like the Shadows... That had to be a big enough bargaining chip to get back in. The least, his life.
And then the man started to throw out names... Sayra, Vincent, Ashe, and a mother, then the name of the Twi'lek. Tanara. He smiled to himself inwardly. Those names could get them killed, even without last names or races, and this guy was just letting their names fly out inside an inn. Force help him, how was he even alive?
Then Farris slunk back in, and practically called them out on it while making it more known. It was a little funny, if he had to say so. But the damage had been done by those two. His eyes were on them enough, and then Farris, so he returned the smile to Farris, before turning back to Lavinia. |

Thea smiled at him and nodded.
"Just head towards Theed"She looked forward and couldn't believe that she was about to go home.
In any case, the trip was thankfully uneventful and quiet and before long, they were entering the outskirts of the city. Atton had never visited Theed before, so he would need Thea to help him navigate. Hopefully there was a bar or something close to where she lived, preferably one that stocked Corellian ale.
First thing was first, and with Thea's guidance, he flew the speeder to her house, setting down in front and shutting off the engine.*"Well here we are." *The house looked nice at least, and more importantly, it didn't appear to have been broken into or damaged in any way.
Atton hopped out of the speeder and waited for Thea to lead the way.* |

Thea got out and looked at her house. Nothing had changed about it. Tears slid from her eyes, this was it, she was finally home. She quickly wiped away the tears and headed up the walk. Her keys were long gone, lost somewhere in the rubble of the lab. She walked over to a swing that hung on the porch and lifted the loose arm. She grabbed her spare and unlocked her home. Turning on the lights as she went, she walked from the hall, to the kitchen/ living room area and gestured for Atton to take a seat.
"I must visit the refresher, make yourself at home."
Thea walked into her bedroom that sat off the living room and looked at her closet. Clothes, real clothes! She grabbed an outfit and went into the refresher that was off the side of the bedroom. After she was fully cleaned, she got dressed and started loading the rest of the clothes in bags. Some of them were gonna be too baggy on her, she had lost a lot of weight. Maybe they would fit the other girls. They rescued her, she could at least help others. Walking out of the bedroom, she dropped the bags on the floor and slumped down on her couch.

*Atton nodded.*"Yeah sure."
*A nice hot shower would probably hit the spot for her. Hopefully she didn't feel the need to rush it for his sake.
As for him, a nice cold ale would really hit the spot. She /had/ told him to make himself at home, but did that include the freedom to raid the house for booze? It wasn't as if he was planning on getting hammered, but wouldn't that still be rude? It didn't help that Atton was mostly a stranger to many of the customs of civilian life.*
IOh to hell with it. I'll find a bar later on. *With that thought, he sat down on the couch to wait for her to finish showering. Come to think of it, he hadn't really bathed since...wait, when /had/ the last time been? Body odor was usually the least of a Jedi's concerns, but still...
He looked over as Thea slumped down on the other side of the couch, looking exhausted.*"Everything all right?"

Thea smiled at him, it wasn't like the smile that she normally gave him. This smile seemed to light up the room.
"Everything is fine. You can go get cleaned up if you want. I can look for food."
She hopped up and went into her kitchen to look around.

"You know how to track those codes! If there are any Jedi Shadows out there, communicating with each other, we can find them! We can find Sayra, Vincent, Asha, Mom, everyone else that might be out there! We can track them down while we're bouncing the cosmos with Master Raven!" Hmmm- Jedi Shadows.... Farris mused as he slowly made his way over to the bar again. He tossed a look at Zalor, Loki and Tanara. You say that out loud like it's not a secret organization. He gave a rye smile- just to show he didn't mean any harm. Perhaps the one who might find the comment actually funny might be Dominic, but Farris wasn't sure. He was, actually surprised that they were discussing the subject so out in the opened. Tanara had just made herself the ultimate target for anyone who might be the Shadow's enemy, and no one had asked Farris his motives for even being around- led alone Lavinia, OR The Sith Agent Dominion.
He definitely wasn't local to Naboo as his clothing didn't match any Nubian fashion. She could tell he was hiding something in his jacket, from the slight bulge. Judging from it's shape, it probably wasn't a weapon, though a man like that probably did have a weapon or two hidden away. No, more likely the straight edges and corners were of a box of some sort. Like most people, he also wasn't Force Sensitive, but there was a lingering trace of...something...it was dark, but she had no idea what it could be. Next she noticed the way he was looking at her and her friend. He seemed to be studying them as much as she was studying him, though he seemed considerably more lost in his thoughts than she was. She also noticed how he was sitting at the table. Even though he was trying to have a conversation with the birdkin, his posture made him feel closed off to her, as if he was consciously aware of how he was being perceived. Someone like that had to have had training of some kind. So, he was a secret agent of some sort, and he had either had been in contact with an artifact of the Dark Side, or had been in very close proximity to a Dark Side ritual of some sort. She was curious enough to reach out with the Force and attempted to skim through his surface thoughts. She was not surprised to discover that he knew how to shield his real thoughts, as all she could pick up was a series of meaningless, unrelated words and phrases. Definitely a secret agent. She pushed a little bit harder, being careful not to alert him to her presence, and managed to hear only the last few words of a sentence. '...bargaining chip to get back in...' A secret agent, with some sort of dark side connection, trained to shield his thoughts from Force Users, and apparently outcast. Judging from how he was studying her and Zalor, she figured he was probably trying to decide if he could use his newfound knowledge of surviving Jedi Shadows to get back into the good graces of whoever he worked for.
She turned her gaze back to the silver humanoid being in front of her. The two of them clearly knew each other, but how? Friends? To her knowledge, most shapeshifters don't befriend too many non-shapeshifters. Partners maybe? Possible, but the Polydroxol didn't have that lingering trace of darkness. Although, if the human had been handling an artifact, it would explain the absence on the silver being. Or maybe they only just recently met? That smile they gave each other indicated they had been together for at least a while though, so it probably wasn't a dark side ritual she sensed. A shapeshifter would definitely be an asset to any organization, especially one that required secrecy. But, if they were partners, and the human male was a disgraced agent, then it would stand to reason that the shapeshifter was also disgraced, or at the very least, barely trusted. As far as she was aware, that made both of them targets in the eyes of their previous employers. In any case, unsubstantiated rumors about two former agents from an organization that was destroyed years ago probably wouldn't amount to much even in the eyes of those who would stand to benefit from that kind of information. Eventually the Twi'lek smiled and replied."As much as we liked to pretend it was, the Jedi Shadows was never a secret. Don't sweat it though, I'm pretty sure no one here is affiliated with the Sith, at least not anymore. Those types don't typically frequent this kind of place. That one is probably the closest thing to a threat, but somehow I kinda doubt it."She casually pointed her thumb towards Dominion, as though it were no big deal that she had figured out what he was. She then took a couple steps closer to the Polydroxol and lowered her voice enough so that only Farris could hear her."I've read your friend like an open book, you should tell him he needs some more practice. You're much more difficult to read, but I love a good challenge. Don't worry, I'll keep your secrets to myself. I'm sure you'd both appreciate that."She stepped away from Farris, giving him the friendliest smile she could. She was very curious to see how he, and his friend would react. |

The Red Dawn Medical Facility?
*She tapped a finger on the table gently and looked thoughtfully for a moment as she recalled the place. It had been a while since she had left, but was still fairly fresh in her mind.*
Well, it was a nice enough place, busy though. Always seemed to be something happening, It was a medical facility after all. But, seeing the family of Daed everywhere all the time, not knowing what become of him.... was demoralizing for me. I had to be out doing something.
*She sighs again, she was not very good at fighting, or being aggressive. But she was not one to just not help someone. And with Daed missing. She had to help somehow. Running into Farris was just happy accident.*

Zalor was disappointed at Tanara's response, but he nodded his head in agreement, not willing to argue technical matters. "I see. It's alright - we'll figure something out. Thanks, Tanara." He muttered, trying to remain confident. She still had access to the Shadows network, and that was a good enough start for Zalor.
Zalor turned back to Tryn, who seemed both satisfied and disappointed by Loki's statement about who Zalor was. He could tell that Loki meant well with his response, although he wasn't always the warmest of people. He tried to get Tryn's attention. "Tryn, I think we're about done here. Why don't you go call everyone over to the front desk, so I can say my last goodbyes. We'll be leaving soon."
Tryn nodded with a look of sadness in his eyes. It was time to say goodbye. "Alright, son. I'll go round everyone up." With that, the old man got up and left the cafeteria, leaving Tanara, Artoo and Zalor alone with Loki and the two suspicious looking people talking to Tanara, one of whom Zalor could've sworn was a Polydroxol, but he didn't get a good enough look at him to tell. Angel and Nussan were still in the back talking amongst themselves, but when they saw Tryn leave, they got up and took off after him, sensing that he was getting ready for the final send-off.
Once Tryn had left the room, Zalor picked up his satchel from off the floor and slung back around his shoulder before patting Artoo on his dome. Artoo retracted the holographic display. The droid could sense that Zalor didn't want him giving away too much about the Shadows network.
Finally, Zalor took a deep breath and smiled at Loki warmly. "Well, if you're ready to get this show on the road, I don't have any more business here - other than just a quick, final goodbye to my former boss and co-workers. Are you ready to leave?"

He could tell she was looking back at him, reading him as he was reading her. Instead of looking away, or looking at her more straight-on, he would just give her a brief, half-smile, that turned to a frown. He could feel something scraping by in his mind. Faint, barely there and ghosting around, but nonetheless there. Didn't help that she was practically staring at him, and had a similar face of intense concentration and focus that a few Sith Apprentices had when they were tasked with trying to read Dominion's mind. He felt that ghost slip over into him for but a moment, before he shut down his thoughts and blocked it out. Nevertheless, she did get something from him. That made him damn himself, but also intrigued by this woman. Not many could do that. His frown would turn into one of thought, then he would turn his attention back to Lavinia infront of him.
Red Dawn Medical Facility. Huh. And then there was this Daed person again. Everytime they came up, she would sigh and look sad, or regretful. This person was important to Lavinia, in one way or another, and it interested him a little. "Could you tell me about Daed? He seems important to you."
He didn't miss that Loki and the man seemed to be wrapping things up. And... were they leaving somewhere? Or was he traveling with them? That brought up another question. What was Dominic going to do? Sitting tight would be a death sentence... but running away with the same group of people that was his problem wouldn't help either..

Farris had half a mind to grab the arm of this upstart twi'lek force user and give her a lesson into how to properly invade someone's privacy. The fact she had done her mind trick to Dominic didn't really bother him- it was the fact that she was caught. The Sith Agent's eyes averted themselves and Farris could almost feel the invisible tension between the two. This Tinara girl wouldn't have been able to pet Dominic as any sort of suspect to make a comment about- without stooping to using the force to do so, and his highly attuned senses felt the strange energy rippling from her even as she drew closer. If you can't read a book over someone's shoulder, without them noticing- best not to read the book at all.
The Polydroxol said with an absolute deadpan of an expression. His feelings could probably be read in his mind through the force- but like Dominic, Farris would have a wall of hardened nothing, surrounding his important thoughts. Arkoth had seen to that. Turning his expression away, he reached behind the bar and grabbed a gallon of water Tyrn had filled up for him while he was recovering- and chugged the whole thing in what seemed like one go, without spilling a drop. Setting the empty jug down, he looked back at the Twi'lek and gave her a thin smile. The pages in my book are blank and silver- but you're more than welcome to try and make some sense out of them. Just do me a favor- if you find out something interesting, let me know. I'm not quite sure who I am either.
With a shrug, the Polydroxol drained another gallon jug of water and took in a big breath before walking a little more confidently over to Dominic and Lavinia. Bending over to look at Dom and speak to him, he gave the agent a narrowed expression. Give me the case back. I'll take care of it. You're safer in here. Obviously the contents inside, are yours. I have no reason to keep it from you. You can trust me- at least for now.
He gave Lavinia a wink before adding the last bit. You know- until I'm someone else.

I met him... *She frowned softly.* ...well..the name of the planet escapes me.. but he rescued me from a group of thugs.. He talked of the force leading him to me. I was trying to help him overcome a darkness in him. To get him to go back to his family at RDMC.. I failed, we got separated in an attack by pirates on Lothal.. I let him and his family down. I know not what even became of him.. I looked... I did.
*She sighed deeply, slumping into the seat, losing her graceful looking poise. She lived to help people, she was always nice and kind, even to those that didn't deserve it. Sitting at the RDMC just ate away at her every time she passed a member of Daed's relatives in a hallway. So she had left. She didn't recall why she ended up at Naboo, but she did find the forests and waters to be peaceful and relaxing. She shakes her head gently.*
I'm sorry.. I don't mean to burden you with my story..
*She looked up at Farris as he looked at her with a wink. She was confused at his comment, was he trying to be funny? Did she miss the joke? She shrugged slightly and tries to recover her graceful seat. She spoke softly at him.*
Are you saying I shouldn't trust you because you are someone else...?

Daed was a Force User then, and if he claimed that the force lead him to her, he was either telling the truth, or wanted to be a player with the ladies, making them feel special. He had seen it before. But, given the way she seemed to care about him, and she let him and his family down, it must have been the truth. If it was the truth... If only he still had the resources of the Program. He may be able to find out more about this Daed person. "No, it's not a burden. I asked for you to tell the story, I'm sorry for bringing up bad memories."
Dominic kept a small bit of attention on Farris talking to the Twi'Lek, and he couldn't help but keep finding Farris to be likable. He then turned to Farris, and his eyebrows narrowed. He was safer here? Give him the case back? "Well were are you headed then? I'm not letting this out of my sight, Farris. Or, if you take it, not letting you out of my sight. Too many things can happen in the galaxy, and this is the only way I live another day." He would bring the case out, and hold it between them. If he took it, he would take it. It definitely was hidden when it was inside Farris, which couldn't be a bad thing. Just the fact that Dominic didn't have it was the only scary part.

She hopped up and went into her kitchen to look around.
But there was that smile of hers, that seemed to freeze his thought process like few things in the galaxy could. And rather than beg her to spill the beans on how she really felt, all he could do was just smile back and nod.*"Just checking." *Sighing, he got up from the couch, figuring he may as well freshen up while she got some food together.*"I'll be right back." *With that, he headed for the refresher, closing the door behind him as he entered. Honestly, he didn't feel very comfortable actually using her shower, so he settled for splashing water on his face a few times.*Not like I'm prepping for a formal dinner or anything, right?*A few minutes later, Atton exited the refresher and headed for the kitchen to check on Thea.*"Any luck finding food?" |

Thea had found supplies to make a pizza. She went to work and had it in the oven by the time he came out. She smiled at him and nodded towards the oven.
"Pizza!"
She then proceeded to walk over to the ice box and found some Ale. She pulled them out and handed him one.
"It feels like forever since I had one of these."
She popped it open and took a swig, smiling at the taste. It was a little flat, but it would do. Anything would taste good to her at the moment.

Just do me a favor- if you find out something interesting, let me know. I'm not quite sure who I am either.
"It would be hard, I suspect, to hold a conversation regarding the nature of the book without garnering the attention of the reader first."She watched curiously as the silver being drank the entirety of the one gallon jug of water, in a single go. That was quite a lot of water consumption. Few species would be capable of such a feat without suffering consequences. She wondered why the shapeshifter was so dehydrated. The Twi'lek girl probably could have attempted to deduce it, if she held more knowledge regarding Polydroxols. With her limited understanding, her best guess was that maintaining a humanoid form was probably very exhausting, and required copious quantities of sustenance to maintain. Then came the curious admission from the silver being. He wasn't sure who he was? Did he also suffer from amnesia? Her curiosity was peaked, but she knew enough to suspect a trap. No one would freely invite a Force-user to read their minds unless they had some sort of specific defence against it."As tempting as that is, I try not to make mind invasion a habit. I'm not a Sith, afterall."She made to walk away, to join her friend again, however, she couldn't help but turn her attention back to the human male and the Polydroxol. She was pleased to see that her observations were correct, as the man pulled a small case out from his jacket. Judging from how they were speaking to each other regarding the case, she suspected there was something incredibly important or valuable inside. Secret agents or not, she was sure there would be people who would be coming for the contents of that case. The most curious thing about it to her, was that they were talking about and displaying the case so prominently in a public place. Especially considering how they had reacted to her and her friend discussing the Jedi Shadows. She briefly considered saying something, but ultimately decided against it. |

Thea had found supplies to make a pizza. She went to work and had it in the oven by the time he came out. She smiled at him and nodded towards the oven. "Pizza!"She then proceeded to walk over to the ice box and found some Ale. She pulled them out and handed him one."It feels like forever since I had one of these."
She popped it open and took a swig, smiling at the taste. It was a little flat, but it would do. Anything would taste good to her at the moment. "You should try Corellian ale sometime." *He took the ale from Thea and took a swig. It was a little flat, but booze was booze and he was a guest in Thea's house so there would be no complaints from him. Although it did make him pine for a nice tall glass of the Corellian stuff all the more...* |

For a second Farris looked genuinely annoyed at Dominic's response, even going so far as to narrow his eyes at him.
Where am I headed? Well to put the case back where we found it obviously. He said, before relenting with a sigh. Fine- Let's---
Lavinia's comment made the Polydroxol do a double take at the winged woman. His scowl he'd directed at Dominic turned into a curious, confused expression when he looked at Lavinia.
No....I mean um. You're fine Lavi- You can trust me, no matter what Me I am.
He reached forward and patted her hand, hoping she wouldn't flinch away from him. Too many people had done that lately. His expression quickly turned back to Dominic.
Mr Mitchel- would you join me...in the Lobby? He indicated that the agent should put the case away for now, then stood fully again. Don't worry Lavi, I'll give him back to you in just a few minutes.
He turned and started to walk to the Lobby, looking over at Tinara briefly. By all means- if you wanted to get caught reading other people's books... then you did a superb job. Forgive my assumptions about your intentions. As for me... My book's always opened for those who can figure out how to read my language.
