Afton listened very carefully to everything that Barkoa said. She had her little blue max sitting on the table recording the things he said just in case she needed to listen again. She glanced at Josson, he seemed focused and was paying close attention to Barkoa. He was good at these things, aspesially when it cames to figuring things out. After the meeting Afton walked up to Barkoa. "That was very interesting. I just have one more question. Do you have somesupplies and a ship ready for me with all the latest info and upgrades? I have a feeling I will need them... Oh... and one other thing. What do we do if we do find Rantar or information?"

Afton moved down the left tunnel with a broad smile on her face. She liked Karn for all his cunningness in sendiong them down the left tunnel while yelling 'the right'. She continued moving down the left tunnel in the lead, as she was the fittest. She pulled her gun out of it holder and held it ready just in case they ran into trouble. Turning slightly she whispered over her shoulder, "Don't talk. If we don't want them to follow we need to stay quiet." She kept moving, making as little noise as posible, hoping that the others would follow suit. Finally she reached a 'trapdoor' like door in the roof. Pointing up she grinned at Karn. "Is that it?" she whispered, as not to draw attention to them...

Hi guys. Things are going great. I am sorry that I haven't been posting much I've been quite busy. I'll try to post when I can. Krytos, Afton, Josson and Solla are going to come and find you then maybe they can help you with some things, like finding the second in charge and what not. And can you check your PM's. I sent you one of small importance. THey rest of you keep up the good work(RPing).

Josson made his way to the hanger to find Solla. They had to leave soon and he didn't want to miss anything. Once he for Solla they made their way to the bar where everyone was surposed to meet. "I'll just grab a drink. Do you want one Solla?" was all Josson could think of to start a convewrsation while they where waiting. ****** Afton was all ready to go, she had had the rest she wanted and was now all set for the new mission. She strod out of the hotel and down the street towards the bar, Barkoa would be there any minute and she did not want to miss a thing.

OOC: Sorry I haven't posted much, but I've been really busy. I'll post when I can. IC: Afton followed the others into the sewerage system rather distastefully but she had no choice. After some time they came to a intersection. "Which way now Karn? I dont wont to be here for longer that i need to be."

Josson smiled while he waited for Solla’s reply. When she finally said yes he smiled all the more. “Great. Well be ready to leave here at 2000 hours. Oh and Solla please be prepared for the worst, we are dealing with highly trained marc’s here.â€

When Solla entered Josson made sure he was seated behind his desk. He liked to keep things formal especially when dealing with others that he was in charge of. He was a no nonsense type of guy and he took his work very seriously. He fixed his uniform then placing his hands on his desk he addressed Solla. “At ease Solla, please take a seat. I have been informed of a mission that is about to take place. I have been asked to assist in this mission. I was also asked if I knew anyone that would be willing to help out. I immediately thought of you. You are great with all that you do and I was wondering if you would be willing to join us? Before you give me your answer I will just give you a run through. There has been an explosion on a near by planet and the only survivor was rescued only then to be stolen by an unknown ship. The mission is to find out where this man is and if he is still alive to rescue him. Would you be willing to join us?â€

After Afton had gone Josson picked up his commlink. Better get in contact with Solla then he thought and turned on his commlink. "Solla Liuetenant Josson here. Could you come to my office imediately please. I have something important to discuss with you." Once he had sent the massage he walked into his office and closed the door. He needed some time to think. Picking up his office commlink and called the Admiral. "Sir I am requesting a transfer. A friend of mine has asked me to help her on a mission being run by two Jedi, Barkoa and his acomplace. I was wundering if I could join them and take Solla with me?" "If you think this is apropriate and needed then I guess that is alright with me. And you may take Solla with you if you wish. Its about time she was had a change in scenery." Came the Admiral's reply. "Thankyou sir," he said then hug up. Just then their was a knock at the door. "Come in Solla......."

Josson and Afton sat at a small table drinking ale and talking, then Afton said. "Josson...I need to ask a favor. I have joined with some Jedi and I am going on a mission. I may need some help and seeing as you can fly and your a good marksman I thought you would be happy to join me. We are going to meet at a bar in town somewhere to have a briefing and then go our seperate ways. Would you be able to accompany me please, and if you know anyone who me be interested in joining us maybe we could become quite unstoppable if you know what I mean." Josson was quiet for a moment, then he replied. "I don't know Afton...I'd love to but I am quite tied up here, but I do know someone that might want to help. I could get in contact with them and wee could go from there." He looked at Afton closely. "Could you just see if you could get away for a while. I mean you probably deserve a break or something." Afton begged. "Ok...I'll see what I can do," he sighed giving in to her persistence. "Great we'll be in touch then," she said getting up. "I'll see you soon." With that she left the room...

Afton smiled. "Sure." She pulled her blue max out of her pocket and looked for a plug. There were non in the room. "Karn I think you will have to take him out into the hall or something and find a place to plug him in. When you've done that juat ask him and he will reply. But you must make sure they are reasonable and that you don't get caught." She said handing him the blue max. "Go for it and be back soon we don't want to get interigated." She smiled at Ulic then turned back to Karn. "Sib, Ulic and I will think something up while your gone."

Afton looked over to Sib. It was a great idea, there were risks involved with every mission and this one was no different. Afton thought over it for a while, yes it would work, all they needed to know was where to find this Ulic follow. “That’s a good idea Sib, but how are we supposed to know where Ulic is?â€

Afton walked into hanger one, she looked around and found that the hanger was quite busy. There were people running around everywhere, putting things into ships and so forth. She walked up to one of the men and asked. "Excuss me. Would you be able to point me in the direction of Josson." The man wiped his hands on his trousers and stuck it out. "At your service ma'am." He replied sarcasticly. Afton realised that it was Josson and laughed.

OOC: Sorry but I don't play this thread anymore. THanx anyway.

Afton thought hard, it was a tuff choose. She knew what she would do had it been justs her, but it wasn't and she needed to take into consideration the lack of experience that seemed to be present in the group. Looking at Sib she said. "I think we should see what Sib thinks. Maybe we can even get in contact with her employer, and see what they think." She really didn't want to take over, she felt she was slightly unrespected... but Sib was incharge really. Well it was her mission to start off with. Turning to Karn she said. "Look I don't want to imposse so I think we should see what Sib's boss says. We are in a bit of a predicament as I see it."

Afton's ASN-121 flew over after she had picked up some weapons. "All is clear for now, but once the news gets out we will probably have a rather large problem." "Thanx," she replied and walked off with the others. They walked down an allie looking for a place to hide till Sib came around. Afton staid back, she was no longer going to assert herself into the group. If they wanted her help they could ask, but untill then she would stay very reserved...

Afton rested for the first day, then she desided to get in contact with an old friend of hers, Josson. They had grown up together, then they had gone their seperate ways. Josson wanted to become a Jedi and so left for the Acadamy, but he had soon given up that life and found he was much better at piloting. So he became a pilot and boby guard of the important people. He was almost as good a marksman as Afton herself which enabled him to be both. Walking down to the local pub, she realised that it may be hard to find him. She had not heard from him in months and she feared that he may be away on a mission or something simular. When she arrived at eh pub she was greeted by the unmistacable smell of alcohol and other putrid smells. Switching off to the smells she walked in. She was greated by a nice bar tender and after ordering a small glass of water, she went and sat down. What caught her eye once she was seated was two men talking at a table near her. She heard one of them say that he was a pilot. Thinknig maybe this pilot would now of Josson she got up and walked over to the table. "Excuss me sirs, but I overheard one of you say you where a pilot. I was wondering if you know of a pilot called Josson? He is a frined of mine." The men looked at her for a moment then replied... OOC: Phytho could you say that your man knows Liuetenent Josson and give her his number or something. And sorry to bring you back to this time but I didnot know any other way to find him. And Ulichorn your character will be a friend of Jossons if thats alright. Sorry to push you around like this.

Afton followed the stormtroopers at a safe distance, making sure she stayed in the shadows. When she saw Sib however her heart sank. The girl does not trust me, she whispered, thinking maybe she should just leave. They did not need her help, let alone wont it, they thought they could do it all on their lonesome. Well fine then, I will leave you to see if you can get out of this yourself, you.... NO she must no do that it went against the way she had been brought up.Don't be stupid Afton, she whispered to herself. Ok I'll help them this time but next time I will see what great plans they can come up with. Turning back to the job at hand, she stepped out of the shadows and called out. "Hey you Imperial jack asses, over here." Without waisting a moment her gun was firing deadly laser fire. She noticed that Karn was now firing as well. At least HE stay'd true to the plan. The troopers become confused and reacted slowly with gave Afton time to pull the DDC Defender out of her boot. She fired both guns in unison and soon the troopers where all lying on the floor dead. She walked to the dead troops and took some more weapons. "Karn come and fill up on weaponry. You will be needing it." She said as she walked over to Sib...

Afton ran to the door where Karn had told them to go, her plan was ruined but she didn't mind. They would have been able to kill all the stormtroopers had it been followed, but now they had to escape with an injured man, or rather woman. She was slightly pissed off, but thats the way the cookie crubles if people didn't trust her. She could not expect them to trust her really because they just meet her. She was quickly snapped back to reality when she remembered the situation. Afton looked around them there was no real place to hide. Suddenly she had an idea. She spun around to her ASN-121. "Go and find out how many troopers are left then scane the area too see if there are anymore coming then report back to me." Turning to the others she said. "Heres the deal, you trust me on this no matter how stupid it sounds and I'll get us all to safely." She looked at their faces. "Ok listen up. Sib cause you are injured you are going to be the bait. Now if you trust me nothing will happen to you. Karn you hide near the that crate over there. Sib you just postition yourself near him but don't draw attention to him. Now I will go back into the warehouse and hide in the shadows, when they come out they will see Sib but they will not shot because they will want to know why we are here. When they come out I will follow and when they get near, but not to near Sib, I will fire. Hopefully they will spin around to attack me and then Karn will attack for his position." She looked at them for responces. After checking if that was alright she pulled a DH-17 pistol from her jacket and chucked it to Sib. "When they turn for me use it, the more fire power the better. Now lets move." Afton move off in the direction of the warehouse...

Afton was working as fast as she could on the hyperdrive, but no matter how fast she worked the thing would not fix. "Damn this thing," she yelled slamming her hand on the control pad. Once her anger was out her hands started to move surprisingly fast over the keypad. Her mind was racing, it was up to her to get the hyperdrive up and running again so they could save Rantar. If she didn't then she would surely feel the anger of the second Jedi. She got the feeling that he did not trust her, or any non Jedi for that matter. Putting her mind back on the job at hand she started to understand the problem. Following the impolses that came to mind she was able to start fixing the problem. But it was too late, she loked up just in time to see the enemy ship zoom off into hyperspace. I just finished, if only I was quicker, she thought as she got up. She walked of to tell Barkoa. "Sorry Barkoa. I wasn't able to get it working in time. I am truely sorry. But I was able to fix it non the less, so we can follow them now if you want or we can just keep on heading to Mouvia. I can always go and find him later to correct my error." She had lost her first big test and let the Jedi down. She knew it would not sit well with them...

Before Afton could say no, Sib grabbed a pip and took out the first couple of troopers. Damn these novices they don't know how to handle these kind of battles, she thought as she saw Sib get hit. With no time to waist Afton sent a volly of fire into the oncoming troops. The first few hit the ground nice and hard. Staying in the shadows she moved away from her position. As she moved along she took out more of the advancing troops. She could see Karn fireing insainly at the troopers. She stopped firing for a moment and realised that the troopers could not find her. Taking the advantage she commando rolled whilest fireing...

OOC: Ok heres what I'll do. You can be a friend of mine that I call on to help me with missions. I'll call you on commlink when we get to the moon. You can meet me on the moon

Afton was walking around in the dark planting tracking devices when the sound of advancing troops could be heard. She hid herself in the shadows and made her way causously back to the others, gun up and ready. She was able to walk right up to them before they noticed her. They swung round with guns up. "Whoo... its only me," she whispered, taking a postion near them. Suddenly her ASN-121 came in through the hole they had entered, it flew straight to her and spoke. "There is a group of stormtroopers coming our way. Theres about twenty of them." "I know, its not like we can't hear them," she replied. Turning to the others she said, "Ok listen up, heres what we will do. I'll go over to the centre of the room just behind that crate, Karn you go that corner to your left and Sib you come over here. When the enter wait for my first shot then let em have it, just make sure you don't leave your postion." Afton made her way to the centre of the room, making sure she did not leave the shadows, untill she reached the crate she had motioned to. She stood dead in front of it, there was no cover for her just an ever darkening shadow. The shadow was so dark that if you did not know she was there you'd never tell. The she waited...

Afton looked at the Twi'lek. "So you need to break into the warehouse eh. Well I can help you with that." She turned to her bue max, "Can we have a layout of the place, we need to know the best place to break into the warehouses." "Sure," the blue max asnwered and started beeping...

Afton had sensed trouble but she didn't think much of it. She was busy listening to Barkoa. Suddenly the sound of metal being crushed and claws scraping on tiles could be heard coming from down the hall. It only took the Jedi's seconds before they where running down the hall towards the noise. Afton followed closely behind with her E-11 drawn and ready. The sight that beheld her shocked her beyond realisation. She had never seen such a creature before, it was like a giant bug. She quickly regained her composer, trying not to show the Jedi's here fear, and started to fire at the beast. They had just killed that beast when more started to crash through the walls everywhere. Mirkon had ran back to get Rantar while the rest of them stayed to fight the beasts. Once outside the hospital Afton saw more of the creatures coming. She waisted no time in fireing. She killed one then saw one coming over the roof of the hospital. She crouched then jumped onto the roof killing the creature with one blast to the head. When she looked down on the scene below, she saw Barkoa and the other guys running towards their ship. She saw Barkoa wave her to follow and jumped down from the roof which was five stories high. When she landed she conducted a commando roll and took of running after the rest of the group. When she reached the ship and scrabled in she was asked by Barkoa to fix the droid. "Sure, no worries," she answered and headed to another room with the parts in hand. Once they had left the planet her ASN-121 flew over to her holding a drink in a claw that came from a hole in its underside. "I thought you might need this after that jump," he said while she took the cup of cool liquid. "Thanx," she said taking a long swig and then asking,"can you ask Barkoa if he has any spare parts. Some of these parts are beyond repair." She watched as her ASN-121 flew back out of the room. Turning back to the job at hand she settled into it with no difficulty...

Afton was tagging along with the two Jedi for the moment. They stood in the hospital ward talking to a man that supposedly knew something about the blast. She listened intently but was interupted by the second Jedi ranning into the room. He said that a man by the name of Captain Mirkon had seen something called a Vorei. What the heel is that,she thought turning to the other Jedi, she listened very carefully to him as he started to explain...
