The West Hangar houses, solely, the ships owned by the Jedi Shadows faction, which includes:
The Jedi Shadows' entire fleet of blue-and-white-striped Delta-7 class Jedi Starfighters, about 85 fighters in all, including Sayra's specially modified 'Aurora Blade'...
...and 15 of the Jedi Shadows' Diplomatic Transports: these are a blue-and-white colored variation of the T-6 Shuttle.
There are also 5 LAAT's used by the Clone Army during the Clone Wars that the Jedi use as mass transports from ground to orbit in case of a need of evacuation.
A reminder to all Enclave Visitors: Please land in the East Hangar. Do not land here in the West Hangar, as the West Hangar is for Jedi Shadows-issue transports and starfighters only.

*The Gladiator roared across the sky as it headed towards the hangar. Ellie reduced the throttle and diverted more power to the repulsor lifts. The ship shook some as it drastically reduced speed to almost a crawl. She dropped even more speed as the ship entered the hangar. Lowering the landing gear, Ellie brought the ship down onto the hangar floor. After she ran through all the system checks and shut down procedures, she turned to her twin.* "See. Easy as that." *Standing up she stretched out her back some, feeling as if she'd be sore for days. Turning, she began to make her way towards the back of the ship.* "Ready?"

"Show off, Kaiya tells her sister teasingly with an amused grin, and then, her expression becoming more serious as the prospect of meeting with the headmasters of the academy settles in. Nodding grimly when asked if she is ready, Kaiya follows beside her twin as she says, I guess we'll find out how ready we are in a minute," swallowing her apprehension and reminding herself that it will do her no good to allow her worry to build within her.
Spotting her Master standing at the foot of the boarding ramp, Kaiya calls out, "Master Kei'takao!" and runs down to meet the Weequay, who has an uncharacteristic smile on his wrinkled and seamed face.
Kei'takao rests one heavily lined hand on Kaiya's shoulder, and the other on Ellie's when they reach the end of the boarding ramp, his deep-set and dark eyes looking from one twin to the other searchingly before he says in a relieved, gravelly voice, "Thank the Force. After clasping the twins' shoulders tightly for a moment, looking into their eyes to read what he can of what they have been through in their expressions, the Weequay says with a hint of wonder in his tone, I was about to set out for Felucia, where I lost your trail. Crossing his arms over his broad chest, the Weequay's expression becomes more stern as he informs them, The headmasters have asked me to hear your reports and decide if any disciplinary action is warranted. A small smile appears briefly as Brijesh says, I've told them that can wait until you've had a chance to recover from your travels. Kateri and Honon are waiting for you both in the cafe. Before you go, tell me: how are you both, really? Is there anything you need?"
Kaiya shakes her head, telling her Master, "Seeing that you are well is enough Master. I was worried for you."
Brijesh nods, telling Kaiya, "And I for you, he looks to Ellie and tells her, and for you as well, then asks Ellie, his deep set eyes on hers, And you Ellie? How are you?"

*Ellie was glad to see that Master Kei'takao was still alive and in good health. Her smile fades some at the mention of the headmasters.* "I'm..better. Still a little sore, but alright." *There was more that could be said on how she felt. The lose of her master was still a healing wound, and there would be more time to explain later when they told Master Kei'takao what happened. Right now, she just wanted to rest.* "I'm sure Kateri and Honon are anxious to see us."

Brijesh studies Ellie's eyes for a silent moment before he grunts, aware that there is much that is being left unsaid just as he is aware that he must wait for Ellie to choose the time when it is right for her to share what she has been through and what having been through it has caused her with him or with another Master she trusts and feels comfortable with, nodding as he says, "Yes, they are quite excited to see you both. Gesturing with his chin towards the hangar's exit, his wrinkled face becoming more wrinkled as he smiles, the Weequay says, Go, the rest of the day is yours. Tomorrow, we will deal with your report."Bowing, Kaiya says, "Thank you Master. I'll see you later, I'm sure. After her Master has returned the bow, turning afterwards to speak with the hangar crew to have them inspect the ship the twins had arrived in, Kaiya turns to Ellie and says, Let's go vod. As they begin making their way to the cafe where their friends are waiting, Kaiya looks over her shoulder at her Master, as though to reassure herself that he is really here, and really unharmed, then sighs as she asks, What will you tell him when we make the report?"

*Ellie gave a bow to Master Kei'takao and followed after her sister. Once they were a distance away, she answered Kaiyas question.* "I'll tell him what I told you. There's no use in lying about it. Besides, what's the worse they could do to us?" *She oddly enough didn't really want an answer to that question. Pausing for a moment, she turned to her sister.* "So..you really don't remember anything?"

**Octavious' metallic royal blue J-type Nubian Star Skiff roars into the Hangar, and prepares to land. Octavious knew to land here to avoid detection, so he put in his special landing codes. With the landing gear out, he touches down and shuts down his engines. He keeps his pre-flight going in case he needed to leave quickly. After all, he felt a disturbance. Whatever it was. it wasn't good.**
**Something is off** **He internalizes** **I'd better go see what this disturbance could be. After all, only Shadows know of this place. We don't exactly advertise our presence. Something is off.**
**Octavious then focuses and activates his Cloak/immersion technique. Completely blending and hiding within the Force. A very Special Shadow technique. He then leaves his ship in search of the disturbance.**

*Her muscles ached, breaths drawing short, but Ellie didn't slow down till she reached the hangar. She came to a stop once she entered the hangar. Her eyes quickly scanned for her ship. All around her Jedi of all ranks darted about, either tending to injured or preparing for combat. Her eyes soon found what they wanted, her gunship. Sitting on its struts, the large gunship looked imposing compared to most other craft in the hangar. Jogging over, she climbed the ramp and made her way into the cockpit.*
*Ellie sat down in the pilots chair and began to prepare the ship for take off. This whole thing was deja vu for her. She had already been through this twice, but now a third time, and at her home none the less. Shaking the thought from her head, she began to power the ship up. Within moments the engines were roaring with life and ready to go. Pushing forward on the throttle, she eased the large gunship forward. Once clear off the hangar she turned to her twin.* "Alright vod. Do you think we should hit those tanks? I'm sure the troops are almost at the temple and I don't want to hit the building in our crossfire."

Running a trembling hand through her sweaty blonde hair to get it out of her eyes, Kaiya nods after Ellie suggests a possible course of action, swallowing to try and get herself back in possession of the calm resolve she has tried to cultivate and embrace in trying times such as the one they find themselves in currently. "Good idea, vod, Kaiya says, her voice beginning to regain the reserved calm it typically exhibits. Glancing over her shoulder, Kaiya suggests, We can try to slow the ground troops too maybe. I could man the rear laser turret and see to that if you think you can manage both the piloting and hitting those tanks with the concussion missles?"

*Ellie gave a nod at her sisters comment.* "Yeah..yeah. That's a good idea, maybe you can hit a few of them." *She began to run through the controls for a moment as she brought the ship to a higher altitude.* "I'll get the weapon systems armed. While you're back there, you might want to find something that will protect you. I'm not going to guarantee that we won't take damage from this."

Trying to look and sound more confident than she truly feels, Kaiya gives her twin a cocky grin as she says, "Oh, I'll be trying to hit more than just a few, vod. Laughing a bit hysterically when Ellie says she can guarantee they won't be taking a hit or two as they carry out their plan, Kaiya nods and lifts her arms casually out at her sides as she starts taking a few steps backwards, asking rhetorically, Nothing worth undertaking is without risks, right?" Giving her twin a wink, Kaiya turns and jogs aft to man the rear laser turret.
The twins are not the only residents of the enclave currently manning fighters or larger ships, several other Jedi also intent on bringing the fight to their attackers in an attempt to turn the tables, and as Ellie takes her ship up, it is joined by a trio of starfighters and two light freighters . . .

*Ellie gave a small laugh at her twins comment.* "True. Needless to say, we've been taking a lot of risks lately." *She brought the large gunship completely around the temple, and cursed out loud. The attacking army was almost at the temple. Things just became a lot harder. Bringing the ships weapons fully online, she swung around to try and give her twin a better angle.* "Alright vod, change of plans. Hit as many of those troops as possible. Then we deal with the tanks."

*Ellie, thankfully, made it to the hangar. Her side burned as if it was on fire, and her breath was short. She turned to her sister and shook her head.* "Jogging, bad. Walking slow, much better." *Her attention turned to the Gladiator as it rested in the hangar. Battered and beaten with a few more scorch marks across it's hull, bit it still looked it decent condition.* "Well, that's a relief." *Something else caught her attention, something darker. On the far side of the hanger were the bodies of the enemy force. Most of them had been covered while others still lay on the floor in full view. Half a dozen or so Jedi Knights and Masters milled about, checking each fallen soldier in turn for clues. Ellie's gut hardened at the sight. There were so many dead, had none been taken alive? She turned her gaze from the spot back to her twin.* "That's....a lot of them."

Biting the inside of her lower lip to keep from commenting when she can read the pain on her twin's face as she jokes about preferring walking slow to jogging, Kaiya tells herself that it won't do any good suggesting that Ellie rest like she should probably be be doing after being injured; just as stubborn as her twin, Kaiya understands all too well how futile any effort to get Ellie to abandon the idea of participating in the investigation would be, and so she ultimately says nothing about such an idea, instead nodding as she says, "It is an awful lot at that, vod. C'mon, let's go take a closer look."
Walking slowly to accommodate her twin, Kaiya heads for where the bodies of the enemy troopers are being examined, overhearing a few intriguing snippets of murmured conversation as they get closer; snippets like the fact there are no recognizable insignia or other markings on the armor or equipment of their foes that would offer a clue as to their allegiance or origins, and the fact that they all appear to have been cybernetically enhanced in one way or another.

*Ellie walked among the rows of fallen soldiers. She noticed the varying levels of cybernetics each person had. The bulk of the army seemed to have lower end cybernetics, while the first wave commandos seemed more advanced. Their armor looked different as well, sturdy but flexible. Insignias and other markings adorned the armor, nothing she could recognize though. She leaned in towards her twin and spoke in a low voice.* "Who are these people? I've never seen anything like this before. The amount of cybernetics is crazy."
*Her gaze landed on Master Sovund, the Bothan Jedi Master who had saved her. A smile graced her features as she spotted him. The Jedi Master raised and eyebrow when he spotted Ellie and her twin. Grabbing her twins hand, she lead Kaiya over to him.*
-Sovund-
"It appears my patient is more resilient than I expected. Even still, shouldn't you be resting?"
*Ellie gave a sheepish grin. Sure she should have been resting, but knowing what happened drove her to put rest aside.*
"We just thought you could use our help. Since this is probably going to take everyone just to figure out who these people are and where they came from."
*A ghost of a smile flashed across the Bothans face for a moment.*
"Very well. From what I can tell, other than the heavy cybernetic augmentations, is that these people share different genetic markers. The first group of attackers and the war leader share a very similar genetic code. Meaning that they came from the same planet. The problem is, the planet isn't in any Jedi records, or Republic records for that matter. The rest of the army, however, is from groups of people scattered across the galaxy."
*Ellie scanned the group of soldiers that had made up the bulk of the attacking force.*
"So...mercenaries than?"
*Sovund shook his head and turned to the datapad in his hand.*
"I'm afraid not. Nearly every being that we have been able to track down records of is either on a missing persons list, or written off as deceased from their home planets government. These soldiers were slaves, or something like it. I hate to say it, but these cybernetics were forced on them and they were sent into battle with no real belief that they'd come back alive. What bothers me though it the amount of determination they fought with, as if something more than just orders were driving them." *The Bothan stared across the hangar as if in deep thought. Shaking whatever thoughts that plagued his mind away, he turned back to the twins.* "If you wish to look around, feel free. Maybe a fresh set of eyes is what we need down here."
*Ellie gave the Bothan Master a slight bow as he walked away. She could almost feel the anger well up in her at the thought of what he just said.* "Slave soldiers?! What kind of people would do something like this to a person than make them fight in a battle their not expected to return from?"

"Chakaaryc, Kaiya hisses in disgust in response to her twin's rhetorical question, unable to think of any other words to describe the kind of twisted scum capable of the sickening acts what they have learned suggests were involved in the assembly and command of the forces that had been sent against the enclave. Lifting both hands to rub her temples as though that might somehow rid her mind of the thoughts that haunt it after what they have learned, Kaiya stops and leans against a wall with a sigh. After a moment spent tamping her anger down so that she can turn what they have learned around in her mind, Kaiya thinks aloud as she says, Ok, we know that they did everything they could to make sure that they didn't leave much behind for us to study, but since we know that they are clearly either kidnapping or acquiring slaves to fill their ranks, that might be a thread we can pull to try and track them down, right? So, we reach out to the Sector Rangers, or other law enforcement agencies, try and learn where some of these poor souls came from so that we can maybe locate where it is these scum are operating out of?"

*Ellie's gaze remained on the bodies for a moment before turning to her twin.* "Yeah...lets do that." *She could feel the anger burn within her. For now, she would let it, she would push it down later.* "Where do you think we should even start?"

Pursing her lips in thought as she considers the various ways to go about doing what she has suggested, Kaiya is silent a moment before shrugging a shoulder and proposing, "We can ask some of our investigators for their contacts in the Sector Rangers? Looking from her twin to the Jedi Shadows around the hangar, Kaiya spots a tall, regal looking female Umbaran that is a respected investigator that has often worked with the Sector Rangers and other law enforcement agencies in the course of her investigations, and nods towards her as she suggests to Ellie, How about Master Rin?"
Already walking towards the Umbaran as she asks the question, Kaiya takes the lead speaking with Master Rin, who, once the twins have explained their reasons for making the request, agrees to reach out to her contacts within the Sector Rangers and let them know what, if anything, she learns when she hears back from them.
"Well, Kaiya says to her sister as Master Rin heads from the hangar, in the meantime, why don't we check out the wreckage of the ship that was scuttled in the forest?" It is, Kaiya knows, unlikely that anything useful might have survived the scuttling, but the trip will at least keep her and Ellie distracted while they wait to hear from Master Rin. Having sensed the anger within Ellie, and understanding where it stems from all too well, Kaiya feels certain that finding something to do other than stew in anger is a necessity.

*Ellie gave a stiff nod at her sisters suggestion to check out the wreckage. She lead the way to the Gladiator without a word. Dropping down into the pilots chair, she slowly powered up the ship before speaking.* "What do you think they were after? The didn't plan on winning by the looks of it." *Carefully pushing on the controls, she brought the ship off the tarmac and out of the hangar. The large vessel slowly rumbled towards the pillar of smoke that rose in the distance. Within minutes they reached what was left off the frigate. Ellie circle the debris, scanning the wreckage from above. Most of the fire had died out, but a few holdout fires remained here and there.* "That's a big ship to completely waste." *Carefully, she set the Gladiator down and put the ship in standby mode. Letting out a sigh, she turned to her twin.* "Alright. Lets do this."

Running her hands through her blonde, wavy hair after sitting in the co-pilot's seat, Kaiya does her best to get her unruly mane back under some semblance of control, undoing the band keeping what remains of her ponytail after the fighting and her restless attempt to sleep at her twin's bedside in place so that she can re-do her hair in a tighter, albeit still rather loose, careless ponytail while she ponders the question Ellie had posed where their mysterious enemy's intentions were concerned.
After giving the question a few moments thought, having curled her legs up beneath her while Ellie circled the debris of the scuttled enemy ship, Kaiya finally says, "You're right, I don't think they expected to win, I think the whole attack was just a . . . probe, a test of what kind of defense we could mount, you know? I think we haven't seen the last of them, that's for sure, and I think they'll be analyzing their attack, and our response to it, very thoroughly so that when they make their next move, it will be one that takes all they learned into account. Sighing as her sister sets the ship down, Kaiya forces a smile as she says, Then again, we'll also have whatever we can learn to help us, right?"
