Tamar herd Jarx but she couldn't come she had fallen in a vent, Julie had left open during the confusion and sprained her ankle she had tried to get up, but she couldn't she was barely holding on. She looked down and saw nothing but blackness. When she fell she had hit the ground but then she tried to crawl hoping to reach the briefing room but the floor suddenly droped so now she was traped. "Help!" Tamar cried but everyone was gone. She tried to calm down and send a force message. Adara help I am in a vent and I am trapped send someone, huurreyThen a cold wind came up from below her Tamar felt sleepy, fighting sleep she held on waiting for help..... Adara took one of the seats in the briefing room, and sat quietly listening to the chatter. She tried to catch Fidella's eyes at the mention of the Rakghouls. She knew very little about the creatures, other than what she had briefly learned over this mission. Suddenly she heard a cry coming through the force. It sounded fairly weak, as if the sender was struggling to concentrate. She recognized it anyways. "Tamar!" she whispered. She stood up, breaking into the run and concentrating on the Twi'lek girl's position. She reached the vent as Lisa reached down. Adara fell to her knees beside Julie. She reached down and snagged one of Tamar's hands. ~*~ Bren stood in the corner of the room, fiddling with one of his pistols. He tuned the talk out, instead focusing on a rant. Wow, Bren, you've been such a hero on this mission. After all these adventures and the bravest thing you've done so far is guard two prisoners. You're really making a great impression. |

Jarx laid his hand calmly on the table, "Allright, lets start the talk. We are going to the planet Taris. It is a planet alot like Coruscant. Right now, the Sith, more then anyone, have more control of it, then the people themselves. So thus, we should try to sneak in, unnoticed. So, we are going to, in all seriousness, sneak past them. As you also know, that is going to be difficult, because of the power readings we give. But, thanks to how the hull is painted, maybe we will not be noticed by the sith. Maybe."
He then stood up and the room dimmed, and showed the planet of Taris, of course, it was a holographic reading, but it showed enough.
He pointed at a point on the planet, and the picture zoomed in, to show a massive city, "THis, is were our mysterious map pointed to. And, as much as I did not want to tell you, we have to go their. And yes, probably much lower then the Upper City of the place."
"The Upper Citizens of Taris are extremely speciests(Racist, but in the terms as not liking other species instead.), and the only other alien race that lives up here, are Twi'leks. And they live in poverty."
He then gave a small intake of breath before continuing, "We are also low on cash. I even checked myself, we all are low. So low, I doubt we can afford a docking fee on the uppercity, so you know what that means. We will be docking in the lower city, and we still will not be able to afford fuel and matience to take off again. So, our other goal, is to get money, or steal our parts."

Lisa grinned. "I might be able to help with that..." she said. "I've had some......experience...with, um...'borrowing' things..."
Jenina nodded. She pondered for a moment, wondering what she could do...

"Low." Trent reached into his pocket. He swore. "My credit card was in my other pants...wait, I have an HQ on this planet, I can stop by and get a couple millio credits from the royal vault."

Brendak's eyes narrowed considerably at the mention of stealing fuel for the ship. Memories trickled
into his mind of the disastrous results of stealing. Not only that, they were going to steal from a planet
controlled by Sith?! If Brendak hadn't been along for the ride, he would have enjoyed watching the
event take place. It was not his favorable thing to draw attention to himself, but he had to say
something before the whole crew decided to raid a Sith party.
Slowly rising to his feet, Brendak attempted to meet everyone's gaze at once, but especially the
mandalorian's. “Are you certain that an idea like this is wise?” He countered. “On a planet inhabited
by Sith, if you try to steal at all, they find out and we'll be dead before we finish filling up the fuel tank.
“Believe me,” Brendak stared hard at every being's face. “I know.”

Lisa nodded. "I know....but I've had my share of experience "borrowing" with the gang......" she trailed off, and she looked away, unfocused for a moment, her eyes shadowed. She shook it off, and continued. "I can help...I'm not afraid..."
Jenina jerked out of her thoughts. "Sith?.....there aren't sith starships there, are there?" she queried, a bit worried.

Sarahi frowned. "I was never a fan of 'borrowing things'." she said.
Cla 'Tal walked beside her. "Ahh, step out of your shell and have a little fun." he said smiling.
Sarahi's eyes narrowed angrily. "Fun is what gets people hurt or killed. You need to realize the seriousness of the Cla 'Tal and for once, grow-up."
--------------
"What?" the word came out of Cla 'Tal's mouth in shock.
Sarahi lowered her voice. "I said grow-up. You never take things seriously when you should. You're not a youngling anymore Cla 'Tal, that's one of the reasons I wouldn't go with you."
Cla 'Tal looked down, not knowing what to say. Her words hurt, more than anything. He looked back up at Sarahi, who was now smiling gently at Brendak. What I wouldn't give to wring his neck.

Lisa leaned back in her chair, still grinning. "I'd be happy to do your part, Qui....I've had lots of practice...."
Jenina looked at Cla 'Tal, feeling bad for him.. she wished she could do something to help...

Sarahi looked at Lisa. "Be my guest, I have had no practice in that area whatsoever."
-------------
Cla 'Tal waved a hand forceing a smile. "I'm going to rest up before we land."

Lisa grinned. "My pleasure..."
Jenina looked at Cla 'Tal. She didn't want to be annoying, or pester him, but she knew he wasn't happy. She inwardly sighed, despairingly.

((Lulu, I'm gonna get our characters to the meeting. I'm assuming I still have permission to RP them from time to time))
Adara pulled Tamar from the vent. "Hey girl, wake up." She patted the Twi'lek on the cheek. "We're missing the meeting."
Slowly Tamar's eyes opened up. "My ankle is sprained."
"Well, I'll treat it in the briefing room." Adara supported Tamar's weight as they limped to the room where the others were gathering. Glancing around, she saw that only one seat was left. She gestured for Tamar to take it, and then bent down to examine the ankle.
The talk about 'borrowing' things came up. She frowned. "We shouldn't steal anything from the lower citizens," she said, making sure her voice carried. "The last thing we need to do is make the poor poorer." She stood, gazing around the room. "I have some skills with persuasion. Perhaps I can convince one of the richer citizens to donate money to our cause."
~*~
Bren smirked as the girl spoke. He strode out of his corner, nodding at Jarx. "I have no qualms with stealing from anyone, rich or poor." He leveled his condescending stare at Adara.

Jarx gave a chuckle. THe first he had given during the whole adventure as of far, "I would never steal. Not my way. I was just laying your options on the table."
"I did hear, their is an arena at Taris, as is swoop racing. Two good ways of earning money. Only problem, we need a swoop. But I am sure we can figure something."

Adara nodded, allowing a small smile to replace her scowl. "It's good to know," she glanced at Bren, never pausing in her speech, "That some people on this ship have some decency."
Bren lifted his head higher, glowering at her. Anger radiated off of him in waves. "Some people don't know decency if it hit them in the face," he mumbled, "Cause decency would be staying alive, at all costs, for the greater good." He snorted, and then turned away from her.
Adara knelt back down beside Tamar, her brain puzzling over the problem of the 'swoop' as she fulfilled her promise of treating the Twi'lek girl's ankle.

Shaa followed the crowd to the “briefing room.” She was glad she had made friends with Lisa. That, However, was not something she had expected to do. When Shaa walked in, She heard the mandalorien talking about swoop racing. She pushed her way to the front and said, “I can race a swoop. If that's what you want.”

Lisa grinned, and waved to Shaa. She turned back to watch the conversations. Wow...people sure are getting emotional.... "Easy there, Bren...calm down..."
Jenina scooted back, sitting in her corner. She watched the others with wide eyes, tugged at by the many different emotions filling the room. She closed her eyes, and covered her ears.
