(Hum. Hum. Hum. ;D )
"So what happened to..." Skdan pointed to the side of his face where Sarahi's mask would be if he had one.
"I was burned, it was an accident to be sure, an accident that nearly cost my life." Sarahi took a sip of water from the mug in front of her.
"I see." Skdan nodded. "You must have had many adventures in your life then."
"More than one could count." Sarahi nodded slowly. "So Skdan, I heard that there is someone here that runs this place. Have you heard of him?"
"I've heard about him, don't know his name though. Everyone around here tends to keep that stuff quiet" the rodian replied taking a sip of something that Sarahi couldn't even begin to pronounce. "Why?"
"I'm new around here, the thought just crossed my mind." She smiled. Meanwhile, while you sip away at your drink, I'm slowly picking at your weak mind.
~~~
"This place is so beautiful! Don't you just love it here." the twi'lek threw her arms up in the air and spun around.
"Hmm...nothing can beat my home planet of Naboo." Cla'Tal looked around. "Plus, it's too soon to tell."
"Oh Naboo? Exciting! Do you travel a lot? What was your job before you came here? Who did you work for?" the twi'lek grabbed his arm.
"I travel a bit..." Cla'Tal wasn't willing to answer the rest of her questions.
"You must have an exciting life, you never seen much going on around here." the twi'lek put a hand to her mouth. "Oh my goodness! I never got your name! Meanwhile I'm blabbing away."
"Cla'Tal Jenoth." he winked at her.
She giggled. "A twi'lek name? Funny, for a human. My name is Katru'da."
Cla'Tal gave a small smile. "I guess..."
Katru'da stood on her tiptoes and rubbed Cla'Tal's arm with a pink hand. "You're all stiff, you should relax. Stress causes you to age faster, and you don't want to lose that handsome face."
As annoying as she was, Cla'Tal was starting to like this Katru'da. "We wouldn't want that, now would we?" he raised an eyebrow.
"No we wouldn't." she grinned. "I'm starving, let's go have lunch now!"
"Sure, why not?" Cla'Tal casually looked around. "This place is nice, is their by any chance we could meet the person in charge?"
Katru'da stopped in her tracks looking nervous. "Um...I don't think so..." She jumped. "Oh there is the perfect place to eat." She grabbed Cla'Tal's wrist and pulled him to their new destination.
Why so nervous twi'lek? Cla'Tal's eyes narrowed.

(Sorry I haven’t posted for a little while. That is totally fine, Brendak; I was just a little confused.)
Aurra watched the group interact with the newcomers. A large wookie approached Ketreelawa and introduced itself. Soon thereafter they both walked away, leaving the rest of the group. Aurra was not usually one to care about others’ well being, but when Aurra saw the young, innocent Ketreelawa being led away she found herself slightly concerned for her.
Aurra’s concern for Ketreelawa soon vanished and Aurra glanced around the group, observing the each of their responses to the greetings. Aurra grinned when a Cathar surprised Lisa, who reacted my trying to grasp her missing blade. She also saw several others being led away by other beings who greeted them.
Aurra then decided to investigate the complex. She quietly slipped away from those remaining of the group.
There has to be a way out, Aurra thought to herself. Aurra looked around, observing her surroundings. There were many building through out the complex. Most were bustling with people and activity, although there were a few buildings that had a rather vacant appearance.
Aurra noticed one building in particular which no distinguishable markings and seeming rather suspicious. That suspicious building looks like a good place to start, Aurra thought before weaving through the small crowd of people toward the building.
Aurra quickly reached her destination and briskly walked toward the front door, acting as though she was familiar with the building. Aurra expected the door to open, like most of the other buildings she had been observing, but to her surprise the door remained where it was. Aurra pretended not to be surprised and walked around the outside of the building looking for another way in, trying not to draw any attention to herself. There was a small door on the side of the building in front of Aurra. Aurra made sure there were no droids in sight and then immediately began to search for the door console.
Aurra found the console on the right of the door and went to work trying to hack through the security.

"So, Ketreelawa," Terrabrocca said, "What are your interests?"
"Interests?" Ketreelawa repeated.
"Yes, you know, what do you like to do in your free time?"
Ketreelawa's head cocked to one side as she tried to think of something. She had never thought about what she liked, because a jedi was self less.
When Ketreelawa didn't answer, Terrabrocca's shoulders sagged, "You've never thought about that have you?"
Ketreelawa grimmly shook her head.
Terrabrocca laughed, "If I didn't know better, I would say that you were some kind of padawan of a jedi."
Ketreelawa tensed up, then relaxed so not to give away her true life.
"Come on, Ketreelawa. Didn't you have any friends? Things you liked to do? Anything?"
I don't even exsist according to the Jedi Order, and she wants me to think of friends? Ketreelawa thought before saying, "I was close to a girl named Kendalia."
"Really? Where is she?" Terrabrocca asked.
Ketreelawa's eyes turned steely and her body tensed once again, "She's dead."
"My dear! How did it happen?"
Brendak's father killed her, Ketreelawa thought before lying, "The bounty hunter that enslaved me for all those years killed her."
"I'm so sorry." Terrabrocca said in a not-so-sorry voice, "You know, you look sleepy. Why don't you get some rest?"
Why don't I go explore. Ketreelawa thought.
"That sounds wonderful. I haven't slept in ages." Ketreelawa said truthfully.
"Well, I'll come back in a little while then." Terrabrocca said.
"No!"
"What?" Terrabrocca looked taken back.
"I'm sorry, I mean, I'm going to sleep for a very long time. I'll come see you." Ketreelawa said avoiding eye contact for fear it might give away her lies.
"Oh, okay." Terrabrocca said before giving Ketreelawa a hug.
Ketreelawa didn't return the hug, instead she said in a rather cold voice, "Goodbye."
"Goodbye, dear." Terrabrocca turned and left.
Ketreelawa waited a while before leaving her apartment and heading out into the streets, where she would explore and maybe find a thing or two out.

(*laughing out loud* Jenina, I loved Lisa's reaction) (Thanks! ) Lisa watched the man for a moment, slowly dropping the defensive position, but did not lower her guard. "Who are you, and what do you want?" The man laughed, amused. "So blunt and to the point.. Very well.. I am Daniel Laethen." Lisa extended a hand. "I am Lisa. And you didn't answer my other question..." Jenina glanced back, wondering at the sudden appearance of companions for the members of the group. Shrugging, she turned her back on the scene. She was in no way interested in any of that. Looking around, she began to make mental notes of objects and people.

Jarx ate the rest of his meal. while chatting with Kara. She was a laid back girl, love to joke around. She had long brown hair that she occasionally had to pull out of her face to keep it from falling into her food, "So, did you enjoy the meal Jarx?"
Jarx nodded, wiping the last of the grease from his hands on a napkin, "It was a good meal. It is sure to leave...an impression."
"Would you like me to show you around the city? There is still daylight to burn..."
Jarx smiled, "I would like that very much. But, I am afraid I must put my helmet back on." He picked up his helmet and secured it in place.
"Do you wear that just to intimidate your friends?" She asked playfully.
He smiled behind his mask, "There not my friends, just merely...acquaintances."
She gave a chuckle, "I guess so. Come on, I will show you around."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fidella hugged the wall and followed the droid. It was to big to be a normal protocol droid, but he did not see any weapons. The things armor was slick and silver. He didn't see any pods or anything on the things arms. The droid walked on two legs, and it had two huge arms.
The droid stopped, and looked behind him, its two red eyes scanned the room. Fidella hugged the wall tighter, hoping that it would not see him.
It continued forward till it went through a door. Fidella followed it through, and came into a gigantic room. He know knew the source of the humming sound. Two huge power generators were in the middle of the room. What caught his eye was that they did not look like normal power generators, and ever since arriving in this supposed paradise, most of the stuff looked totally different then what he was used to.
He would have continued, had he not seen the turrets in the ceiling. He jumped back through before he could be detected. He looked behind him and saw a lift of some kind. He went on, and pressed for the highest floor.
------------------------------------------------------
The door opened for Aurra. She entered through slowly, and saw a bunch of electronics. She also saw a lift at the backside of the room.

Ketreelawa crept through the streets making sure to avoid any droids, until she came to a building that was set apart from the others. Quickly, she made her way to the door, which was locked. That means there's something to hide... Ketreelawa thought, before quickly hacking through the lock and walking inside.

The door opened for Aurra. She entered through slowly, and saw a bunch of electronics. She also saw a lift at the backside of the room. The door silently slid open. Aurra glanced around making sure there were no droids around before cautiously entering the room. The room was quite large and dimly lit, making it harder for Aurra to see. Aurra observed her surroundings noticing many unfamiliar electronics. Strange, Aurra thought, I never seen any devices like these before. Aurra then noticed a lift near the back of the large, dimly lit room. She began to walk toward it, her footsteps quietly echoing in the room. She had almost made it across the room when she heard a lift door slide open. Aurra quickly ducked behind one of the stacks of electronics, hoping no one had seen her. Light from the lift filtered into the room, making it easier for Aurra to see. Aurra heard mechanical footsteps getting closer and closer to where Aurra was hiding. Aurra held her breath hoping the droid wouldn’t discover her. Suddenly the lift door closed and the room was darker again making it much easier for Aurra to hide in the shadows. Aurra quietly found her way to the wall of the room away from the droid who had entered. Aurra sat down and waited for the droid to leave before making her way to the lift. Maybe this lift will lead to way out, Aurra thought optimistically as she got in the lift and told the console to bring her to the highest floor.

(Robbie, a bit of help, I have no idea what to do! It's hard because I don't know what I'm looking for or what.)
Sarahi sighed as Skdan blabbed on about life. Please...for the love of the Force! Say something useful!
~~~
Katru'da had failed to mention anything important for the longest time. Cla'Tal rested his cheek against his hand and pretended to be interested to what the hyperactive twi'lek was saying. Do you have any other interests besides...I don't know...uh...nothing? He paused his thought process and watched as Katru'da ranted on. Do you ever take a breath?

(Have the people ask questions about the group. Also ask them questions about the place, what is it powered on, how long has it been there really, why are there so many droids, ect. I will answer for that person when I see you ask that sort of question. ) Kara walked with Jarx through the city. He narrowly avoided someone with a speeder, "People should slow down around here..." "Don't worry, with all that armor on, I doubt you would even feel anything." They walked past a pair of men who wore the black uniforms, "Why do they get weapons and the citizens don't?" Kara shrugged her shoulders, "That is how its always been. The people who come here never had a need for weapons, and they only have them because there security." "How do they pick security around here?" Jarx asked. "I really don't know. I think some are chosen out of the crowd, and some are just descendants of past security guards." -------------------------------------- Fidella exited the lift and was amazed by what he saw. He was looking into a huge control room filled with electronics and equiptment. On the other side of a the room was a huge window, which aloud you to see into the city. In the middle of the room was a chair, with a computer hooked into it. Just as he started to move, he heard a door open. He was about to use the force to push the person till he realize it was Aurra, "What are you doing here girl?"

The lift finally reached its destination and stopped with a sudden jolt that Aurra wasn’t expecting. The lift door opened and Aurra cautiously stepped out into a long hallway.
Aurra looked around her, making sure there were no droids in sight, then quietly jogged down the hallway until she came to a door. She stopped in front of it and it automatically opened with a quiet humming noise.
Aurra’s eyes widened at the sight of the Twilek Jedi, Fiddela who was standing in front of the door.
“What are you doing here girl?” Fiddela questioned also looking slightly surprised.
“I was trying to find a way out of this place, so that when the times comes we can escape without detection.” Aurra replied before asking, “Why are you here?”

Shaa watched the city with her intense, hazel eyes. Everything seemed perfect, but the farther she walked, the more droids and security guards she saw. She startled out of her scanning by Tyron's voice. "Don't walk so fast, Shaa!" She stopped and turned around, to see her companion quite far behind her. "Oh, uh, I'm sorry. I was. . . in a trance." She said, a little embarrassed. "That's alright." Tyron caught up with her. "I was just wondering why you were wearing. . ." He pointed to her Jedi robe. Shaa had been so focused on the people here, she had forgotten her own apparance. She thought fast. "This? Oh, it's so comfortable, I just love it! I don't go anywhere without it!" She lied, trying to sound convincing. "Okay. . ." Tyron looked off in the distance. "This is a beautiful place. follow me!" Tyron grabbed Shaa's hand and lead her behind a few buildings. They walked up to a silver door, and Tyron pushed it open. What was inside stole Shaa's breath. A small field of grass and wildflowers bloomed and swayed in the slight breeze. Vivid colors and wonderful fragrances flowed off each and every flower. They were everywhere, and they were amazing. Tyron let go of Shaa's hand and she staggered into the field. A few small children skipped through the fields, laughing and playing. Maybe this place was paradise. "W-who made this? It looks like my old home on Naboo." She squeaked, taking in everything. "I don't know what his name was, but hasn't visited this place in months. I don't know why." Tyron shrugged. That was a bit of useful information. Maybe this guy was still alive. Shaa snapped back to the mission and her eyes narrowed. Every gift comes with a price... (Is this okay? I can change it

Lisa looked at Daniel interestedly. "So, Daniel, pal of mine, who established this wonderful undergound place? It's so nice.." Jenina wandered, poking her nose into almost everything, her curiosity outweighing her shyness and caution for once.

Fidella looked around, "More then looking for a escape route that is for sure."
He looked at the chair and its computer, and came up with an idea, "Come with me."
Aurra cautiosly followed Fidella to the chair, and Fidella loooked at it, "Like I thought, it is password protected." He looked at Aurra, "Hack it."
--------------------------------------
Kara led Jarx to a giant park, and Jarx looked at all the children playing around, "Are people oblivious to the war going on?"
She shook her head, "They aren't, but they have no place to worry about the war coming here."
"Are they crazy? The sith will destroy this planet if they had it there way."
She looked at him, "The people here are well aware of the sith blockade, but I doubt even a sith bombardment would effect this place, and that is without the shield generators."
Jarx stared at her, "This place has shield generators? And you know that?"
She smiled, "I am told alot of things the public here do not know. I think though you can keep that little secret."
----------------------------------------------------
Elsewhere
"Sir, we are almost there, just two hours away."
The Dark Lord sat in the darkness, his anger giving him strength, "Hurry commander, we do not have much time." ---------------------------------
Daniel looked at Lisa, "I have no idea. I only heard that he comes now and then. Then again, he could have died along time ago and it was just a rumor."
---------------------------------
Kara led Jarx into the middle of the city, what he saw there, startled him. It was a giant statue of an imposing figure. The figure was dressed in a huge cloak, and a mask covered his face. But some of the torso was exposed, and Jarx saw something that interested him, "Is that a lightsaber?"
She nodded, "This is supposadly the maker of this place. Some say he was an ancient jedi who cast of the mantles of the jedi order. Some say he was an ancient sith, a true sith, who wanted his own private world. Some say this is just a false statue to give people the jitters, or fool the maker of this place's potential enemies."
That is interesting enough. I bet that jedi would want to know that.
(That was allright by the way to that last question.)

Ketreelawa walked for a while before a voice startled her out of her thoughts.
"Ketreelawa?" Terrabrocca asked.
Ketreelawa spun to face the wookiee, "Um, hi."
"I thought you were going to sleep." Terrabrocca said.
"Well, I, um, couldn't sleep and decided to take a walk." Ketreelawa replied.
"Well, then let me walk with you." Terrabrocca insisted.
Ketreelawa sighed, "Alright."
As the two wookiees walked, Ketreelawa looked at the buildings, several had many lights on inside.
"How is this place powered?" Ketreelawa asked with curiosity.

"So," Sarahi looked around. "why are there so many droids around here. I mean, where I come from, you don't see this many of them."
"Where do you come from?" Skdan took a drink from his glass.
"Manda----Denon, but I---"
"Oh Denon. What's that like?" Skdan didn't seem to pick up on what Sarahi first had said.
"I don't know, I haven't been there in a long time." She sighed.
"And what about Mandalore?" Sarahi had hoped too soon.
"I was only born there, I lived on Denon for a while, then on Agamar, and currently Coruscant." Sarahi forced a smile. She shook her head. "Now will you answer my question?"
