Xbx_Inthusiast Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 As he came to see an embassy, he skidded horizontally to a halt, kicking up dirt and rocks towards the nearest tree. "An Embassy huh..." He said to himself, looking around before switching off his bike and swinging his legs around to sit, kicking down the stand. His stomach grumbled rather loud as he put a hand to it. "Sorry.. nothing to eat right now.." He said to himself, turning around and reaching into his sack to pull out a small canteen. He took a swig of it and put it back away, zipping up the sack and positioning it on the back again. He leaned back and took in the full scenery. "Important meeting i'd guess... but this is where the footprints led me.. " He said, glancing down at the mud-caked tires. (He's poor, so no repulsor-lift) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 "Over what exactly?" Tari asked as they started out. "Don't tell me that your some kind of a criminal." she eyed him over again, and said under her breath, "As if looking and dressing like that wasn't a crime enough."

Xbx_Inthusiast Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 He coughed loudly, shaking a little before folding his arms over his chest, shivering due to his rather... lithe structure and the thin jacket he was wearing. "Freezing.." He said to himself, looking up into the sky. "Better not rain.." He glanced over at the Embassy main doors and saw two silhouettes slowly walking outside, to his left. He started to turn around, swinging his legs back around onto the speeder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Tari let out a loud 'augh!' as she picked up the pace and strode out in front of him. "Great. Not only do I have to leave the Embassy without Father, forced to travel to 'safety', but I've been given a Jedia slimedog criminal as an escort!"

The Doctor Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 Tacit noticed the man on the motorspeeder, trying to make a quick esape. He reached out with his mind, and snapped the back tires off. "Hey, buddy, need a hand?" he said roughly, picking him up by the collar and lifting him into the air. "Wouldn't want you to hurt yourself. YOu in a hurry to get somewhere, little man?" he asked threateningly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbx_Inthusiast Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 He turned around to look at him, blinking a little bit. He struggled against the man's grasp but due to his lack of strength for not eating a full meal in days, he just went limp. "Yeah... unless this.. street rat hurts me first.." He said, sliding out of his grasp and into a heap on the ground. He stood up and looked to his cohort, raising an eyebrow mischeviously. "Who's this vixen?"

The Doctor Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 "Hey, back off," said Tacit, moving in front of Tari. "Besides, she's not your type. She's not any man's type, actually. No man with ba-" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 "Excuse me?" Tari said, her eyes narrowing with vehemance at Tacit, and she pushed him aside, moving to the man. "Please excuse him, sir. I really should keep my Geohounds in line better." she offered him a hand to help him up. "I am Tari Hrent, daughter of the Ambassador up at the embassy. Are you alright, Mr...?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbx_Inthusiast Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 He took her hand and stood straight, letting go and nodding. "Hungry.." He said, flashing a glare at the man who held him up. "Got any food?" He said, raising an eyebrow, stretching a little, folding his arms behind his head, grinning sheepishly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 Tacit threw a nutrition pack at him. "That's all we got. Now, if you'll excuse us, we must be going." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkonium Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Gashon immediately felt the man at the door was a threat, due to his feeling for Tari and his military training. "Who is he? Did he try to harm you?" He asked her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 "He's fine, Gashon." Tari answered, giving her hand a downwards sweep to indicate that he should settle down. The soldier had been following them from a bit of a distance, she now realized, and had jumped at the appearence of the unknown man. "Though, if I were you, I'd pay more attention to him." she said, jamming a finger at Tacit, "He seems to be ready to kill every and anyone who comes across our path."

Xbx_Inthusiast Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 He quickly ate the nutrition pack. With a full mouth he managed to spout out the words "Ty Karon." He swallowed and looked at the three. He nodded to Tacit, then he looked at his bike. "You wreck it, you fix it. This is the only transportation I got.." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 Tacit sighed. "I didn't wreck it. I disabled it. Just connect the power cables to the tires again and it will be fine. Five minute job." He saw Tari jab a finger in his direction. "He seems to be ready to kill every and anyone who comes across our path." "Look princess, I've been hired to protect you, and that's exactly what I intend to do. That means keeping your eggs unfertilised." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkonium Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 "That's why I'm here." He said to Tari. He then turned towards Ty. "You'd best not be trying anything funny, or you're in for a world of pain, got that?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 "Calm down, soldier," said Tacit. "This guy isn't about to try anything," he continued, removing his beam sword from his belt. "Unless he wants to lose his.... fingers." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 "You know what, Tacit?" Tari practically shouted, stepping closer to him. "I've had just about enough of you. You have no right to be ordering my father's soldiers and employees around, or to be attacking innocent people." with anger, she slapped his hand in an unexpected move, knocking his weapon to the ground. She then stuck a finger in his face, "You were ordered to protect me, which puts you under my control. And in case you really are as dense as you act, that means that you have to listen to my orders. And now, I'm ordering you to shut up, and stand down." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 Tacit opened his hand, and his weapon shot back into his hand. He pushed her back gently, hooking his weapon back to his belt. "My apologies," he said, though not sounding entirely sincere. "... princess." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Her eyes lingered on the Jedia for a moment, still glaring at him, before moving back to the others. "I'm sorry, just so hard to find good help these days..." She shook her head, and then glanced from Gashon to Ty. "So, what were you two planning on doing? We have to move on, so..."

steven Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Jack had a meating with the local sherif. There was a good sum of money involved and it ensured Jack would be out of town. He was to meet the sherif in his office, so that were he went. After talking with him, Jack agreed to go to the mountains and kill an animal that were causing trouble to hitchhikers. Jack set off right away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xbx_Inthusiast Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 "And footprints aren't? These people have no idea what a tire track looks like.. i'll tag along." He said, hopping on his bike. "It's nothing.. Tari," he said, looking around then firing up the beast, pressing a button as the tires turned sideways and the bike started to hover.

The Doctor Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 "But how many people around here ride on of those?" asked Tacit. "No, leave it here. It's too memorable. We don't want anyone to be able to follow us." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
