"Well I haven't yet discovered everything, so far only the hydrospanner can be removed. I can see where you're coming from. But I'd rather have a bionic replacement that can actually do something other than attempt to be an arm." Allen said and again started twirling the coin in between the metalic fingers.

(( Okay, I'm going to be dropping you guys out of hyperspace in the next few hours so get any last bits of pre-arrival conversation out of the way. Also, for those wishing to join the RP from this point onwards, you will need to introduce your characters on whatever planet the team is on as a new arrival of some sort.

 

For example: While you start out with an initially small team in KOTOR and KOTOR 2, you encounter others on planets you travel too and they choose to join you permanently. Thats how you'll need to do it from here on out. The team on the shuttle officially only consists of Shadow, Allen and Andrea at this moment. ))

After roughly two days in Hyperspace, the shuttle carrying the three-person team emerged over the planet Garos IV. From the window of the shuttle, they could see that the planet’s surface was a beautiful sight. A pure blue ocean ran across the equator of the planet, while a large continent sat in the north filled with lush forests and high mountains. They could see the lights of the cities that dotted the planet’s surface from below, indicating that it was night on the side they now faced.

 

As their shuttle drifted closer to the planet, the com system within their shuttle began to beep, signaling an important incoming message. A voice soon echoed through the public com channel.

 

“Unidentified Shuttle, this is Garan air control station B, what is the nature of your cargo? Are you civilian or military?” The man on the ground questioned in the neutral tone that came from someone who was use to asking these questions on a daily basis.

"Garan air control, this is shuttle Heimdall. We are carrying three civilian personel for a refueling and some personal business. We await for you to direct us to a clear landing hangar" Shadowfox said back throught the com and sat back on the co-pilot's seat. He had changed from the Imperial Knight apparel to a more loose look. He looked like any other mercenary in the trade, wearing boots, loose pants, a white shirt and a jacket made out of either black material looking like leather or from actual leather. Inside his jacket he carried the force pike for protection in close combat situations while on his right side was his blaster in a holster placed right above the knee so he could draw it just as comfortably as when standing even while sitting down. He had all his gear and grappling hooks and headgears and all that jazz but all was hidden under his jacket or inside the utility belt's pockets now instead of out on the open. He also had a pair of the latest version of the Verpine Ocular Enhancers on his other hand that were shaped like normal sunglasses for the stealthy person

(( Sorry for the delay, had to go to the doctors. =\ ))

 

The lights of the landing pad shined brightly and their shuttle descended over it. Landing with a slight thud, the ramp of the shuttle lowered as a lone man walked down the walkway to greet them. He was dressed in blue uniform common for the planets air traffic controllers.

 

"Hello, I take it that we have a crew of three? Alright then, that will be 25 credits." He stated plainly as he extended his hand.

Grudo walked down the ramp and looked around.

"What a crappy place. It does beat the ones on Nar Shaddaa, thought" he noted and looked at the droids working about. Like every time a ship landed, they were carrying the fuel hose to the ship and getting ready to fill her up for departure whenever that would happen to be. The man then stepped away from the ship, placed his hand on his blaster's grip and looked back at the others.

"So, where should we start then?" he asked, taking a small holoprojetor out from his utility belt and looking at the hevaily simplified map of the city.

The area Allen pointed to on the map happened to be the primary slum used by the poorest members of society in Garan, The Boil. Crime was practically unmonitored there and living conditions were abysmal. No sector authorities dared to venture into that area. It was practically anarchy in there, with only the local crime bosses holding some measure of authority.

 

If someone wanted to get lost there, however, it would be very easy. The Boil had many things in it that wished to be forgotten.

"Hmh... I know a couple of guys over there. That is, if they haven't done anything stupid and got into a fight with the bosses. But if the Emperor really was there, we'd still have a large are to cover. He'll probably be mostly out of sight and with the resources he has as the lost leader of the empire, he'll be hard to dig up. And even if we can dig him up, he'll probably have a whole army of merenaries to protect him from Imperial patrols and spies" he said and sighed

"Some itches are dangerous to scratch," Andrea said quietly, approaching the men from behind, her lightsaber out of sight and her blaster rifle strapped securely to her back. "But I think this one's a little on the important side." She shook her head slowly and sighed wearily. "Let's go."

"He's the emperor. He has many threats now that a coup has risen. He'll have soldiers guarding him" he said before heading for the door. He pressed the button for the door to open and with a hiss, a view at the street outside opened up to their eye. As they were stepping out, he smirked and looked around.

"We'll need a ride" he noted

"The legal way won't attract attention, so that should do just fine. We don't need attention aimed at us, do we?" he said and looked around for a place to find rental speeders. He flashed the map back out and looked at it.

"Bah... There's no use with a map that doesn't tell you where you can rent a speeder We'll just have to look for a place by walking around, eh?"

The streets were busy, as people made their way through the Merchant Module. Lights filled the city, flashing signs displaying hundreds of different small businesses just in their immediate area. Out of these however was a partially smashed sign that now longer was flashing. Below it was a large warehouse and a rather nervous looking individual.

 

He stood peering into the large garage that the store contained in fear, as he watched some unseen disturbance.

Andrea's finely tuned senses almost immediately caught onto the nervous stranger and she glanced over at him for a moment. "Grudo," she said softly, catching the Knight's attention. With a mental nudge she directed his gaze toward the stranger.

 

"He's nervous," she said softly. "Very nervous." She tilted her head to one side thoughtfully. "Afraid, even." Her eyes rose to observe the warehouse. "Wonder what's in there..."
