1/38

The chat's topic has changed to: Sleep is for the WEAK Shleeerr : lmao)

Eugene_Harrison_ firms his stance, and fires a shot at herknee caps,

Dopper_NSF : isn't though, when you have great stuff likethis thing..)) Jedi_Master_Sage : [question, why does Gandalf smoke

while reading ancient scrolls that are prolly veryflammable?]]

Chancellor_Tiberius : (because he is Gandalf)Chancellor_Tiberius : (and he probably can like cough and make

fire go out)

Eugene_Harrison_ : what smoker doesn't need papers )

Dopper_NSF note to self: stop smoking)) Shleeerr slides backwards from the push butdoesn't lose her balance. She makes a quick decision tofire slightly to the right of Melanie, thinking she will jumpone of two ways to avoid Eugene's bolts.

wnmr smokeing is over rated...knows caue he quit>>Dopper_NSF arrives and isn't afraid to be out in the open,

his whole suit was on in no time, he pulled hisblaster,ready to move expeedeantly for whatever shethrows at him..

Jedi_Master_Sage rises from the lake, his robe of naturallywater resistant silk-fibres drying as it touches the air.with his dark robe worn loosely around him, he looks outacross the shore, his gaze scans across the lake

lexaner : I know why he does that)Melanie_trm watching both Shalee and Eugene, notes

her aim is to her (my) side while moving her blade in thepath of Eugene's shots allowing them to hiss off hersaber blade taking interest in the newly arrived NSF now

accessing exit stratigies sn Stretched out on her bed, she held aa body in one hand, positioned at an angle and heldupwards as the baby drank with quiet slurps. Shewatched him squirm here and there before glancing overtowards the wall unit to take note of the time.

Tlo as more and more things keep getting shot around

him, he finally has enough when the one of the legs ofhis chair gets blown away causing him to fall out of it.

Shleeerr : lmao talos) sn a body? Bottle*)

Melanie_trm : ut oh, PO'ed Sith fell on his bum ... lol)Dopper_NSF : storm, i am only gonna ask you once , standdown, and i promise you'll only get attempted

assasignation Jedi_Master_Sage recalls the events of last night and

decides to make his way to the home of his grand-daughter, he has much to reveal and much to find out...

Dopper_NSF he already had a blaster beam onher,motioned shalee to get away

Eugene_Harrison_ holds his fire hearing the NSF, keepinghis blaster aimed on Mel, "Shalee are you ok?"Dopper_NSF used his macha-reenforced arm to hold

blaster, so his arm wasn't volenerable* Shleeerr rushes forward, her hands outstretched

to shove a table at Melanie. The force of the table wouldmake Melanie go over the side of the terrace wall if notstopped.

Dopper_NSF : feel the love, i actually feel it))

Tlo standing up he removes his small napkin from his lapbefore throwing it down on the table and reaching for afork, with fork in hand he turns to look at the people inthe room before randomly selecting one and throwing itat the man's rear end

Dopper_NSF : ^))Melanie_trm as the table is slid at her, kicks the corner

of the table from underneath raising the table in front ofherself like a shield, she would allow the NSF and Eugeneblindly fire through the table while back peddling towardthe Terrace steps winking at >

lexaner the man was eugene fyi)Melanie_trm Shalee 'thanks for the help Sis'Eugene_Harrison_ in the corner of his eye notices

someone throw something at him, slides to his right toavoid the fork, "what the nuna?"


3/38

sn yawning, she pulled the bottle out ofhis mouth, then sat up grudgingly. Picking him up soonafter, she gently pat his back after taking a seat in arocking chair nearby.

lexaner back in his small apartment, he dances arounda punching bag, rocking back and forth as well as side toside, as if facing an unseen opponent. Every once in awhile a quick succession of blows is landed on the bag.

Dopper_NSF whats ue fuxin problem storm eh.....?,"hestrained to long to let his guard down

sn This was almost quite therapeutic.These moments drew her thoughts away fromeverything and anything. She only concerned herselfwith the baby in her arms and the sounds of her siblings

somewhere in the house. Shleeerr as the table becomes a shield and

bounces back towards her, she tries to get out of its pathbut the leg of it knocks against her knee and sends hersprawling across the floor.

Tlo seeing the man dodge the fork, he picks up a spoonand throws it at the man's chest, clearly he is not happyabout having his ONE quiet and peaceful meal interuptedby some nutcases with guns

Melanie_trm her delicate form runs toward the stepsleaping upin the hand rail leading to the garden slidingdown the hand rail8Melanie_trm is away.

Dopper_NSF saw what happened and decided to 'getsome'

Melanie_trm If you are looking to 'get some', Melanie isquite expensive .... of, some fight .... nm )

Eugene_Harrison_ rushes over to Shalee as the lays on thefloor, not defending the spoon, now knowing what it is,"Are you ok?"

Dopper_NSF asks Eugene to stay, he will pursuit, he startsand transmits into the 'commlink' on all bands, awarning of Melanie storm

Dopper_NSF : im a marine, i know tactics, )) Shleeerr hand darts up and grabs the spoon


4/38

midair. "Yes. I'm fine." she says with un-Shalee likecalmness.

Melanie_trm unignites her saber clipping it to her belt asshe heads into the Garden toward the Theed Alley exit

Dopper_NSF : not if i can help it)) Jedi_Master_Sage signals a speeder-cab and gives thedriver the address. He carefully rehearses in his mind,what he will say and ask during the short ride. As heexits, he pays the driver and walks up to Gen's door andwhispers to her with the force, aware that >

Jedi_Master_Sage >she has a child who might be resting atthis hour ~vf~ Genesis, I'm here..

Dopper_NSF his speeder,on call command, was alreadywaiting for him around the gardens

Tlo shaking his head he is completely in a pissy fit for amoment before he throws his entire plate of food at thetwo, all kinds of foods flying at them

Eugene_Harrison_ kneels beside her, his eyes moving fromher to her catch,"nice catch...?"

Melanie_trm slips out a side alley exit heading into amaze of alleys slipping into a random abandonedbuilding

Shleeerr as the food comes flying out at them,

she rolls over while pulling Eugene down with her. Thefood flies over their heads "Lets go up to my room."Melanie_trm : (Can Melanie apply as your HM? ... lol)

sn glancing down as the baby lets out asoft burp, she smiles slightly before carefully rising.Sleep was evident on his small features and shifting himin her arms, cradled him while heading downstairs. vf~I'm coming~ she responded though Eden beat her to

Shleeerr : roflmao)

Eugene_Harrison_ allows Shalee to pull him down,"Yeslets" stands up offering his hands to help her up, hisback to Talos to hopefully block anymore food

Dopper_NSF jumped into it, and did a path scan, he hardlyever used the speeder, and since it was a govee, it was

jus collectin dust in lot, he got ahold of the office, andput out for a warrent to be made for Melanie-storm ,put


5/38

his com-link away, and started > sn the door first. It seemed her

youngest sister was always aware of everything aroundher and in a flash, the door was thrown up. Her tiny gray

form looked up at Sage with a frown before scratchingnear a horn. " Hi.." She greeted rather shyly.Melanie_trm (Does this mean that Melanie isn't invited

to the NSF ball?)Dopper_NSF cruisen at slow speed round the commonplaces a person like that would hide and be a coward!

Dopper_NSF : umm ermmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm))) Shleeerr : roflmao) Jedi_Master_Sage smiles as he looks to the child that he

towers over, he crouches down just enough to not dwarfher "hello Eden, is Genesis home?" he asks, although heknows she most likely is.. somehow he knew she wouldbe

Shleeerr walks off the terrace not dealing withanymore NSF for the night. Once inside the palace andin her chambers she offers him a drink.8Shleeerr is away.

Melanie_trm heads to the middle of the main roomkicking a floor boars releasing a hidden door leading into

an anderground escape tunnel she preped for weeks,closes the door behind as makes her way under thestreets of Theed

Melanie_trm : floor boars=floor board) Shleeerr : rofl) sn eden studied him a bit more

carefully and after a few heartbeats, her shyness faded.She offered a proper little boy and nodded, " Yep Master."And with a jerk of her thumb, gestured behind her

before she took off at top speeds, back to the living room sn to finish one of her games.Dopper_NSF decided to return to the scene, he had to ask

Shalee Q's, not any ol' talk this time, twas official8Eugene_Harrison_ is away.8Dopper_NSF is away.

Dopper_NSF : sorry i left me cup on , i wasn't thirsty...))


6/38

Dopper_NSF : off*))Eugene_Harrison_ follows her up to the room, his heart

was pounding, he had a hundred questions, and ahundred things he wanted to do, "just water please"

Shleeerr : lol) sn '12!' she called out to Eden thoughnot loud enough to disturb the dozing baby in her arms. 'Her bedtime..' she explained which was about another45 minutes from now. ' If you're here to ask about lastnight..I apologize for leaving and not staying to

sn talk.'Melanie_trm you should see what Melanie left in your

though ) Shleeerr hands him a glass of water, and pours

herself a whiskey. Her blood was pumping still from thefight, she was trying to calm down. "That was...did youget hurt?"8KyKy has left the conversation.

Dopper_NSF : lol, i can smell crappy coffee)) Jedi_Master_Sage retains his smile and closes the door

behind him as he moves in the direction given and looksto Genesis with the child "Its alright, at least it may be,depending on what you tell me next"

Eugene_Harrison_ "No,...you?" keeps his eyes on his watertrying to focus,despite what had just happened the fightwas the last thing from his mind8wnmr has left the conversation.

Shleeerr "I'm fine. Man. She was fierce. I'venever fought anyone like her." She was reviewing thefight in her mind. "Never." She sounded almost as if sheadmired her.

Dopper_NSF set down the dusty speeder, he thougth he

should start using it, but he loved to much to walk andsee ppl eye level he headed towards Eugene and Shalee sn She offered a smile in turn though it

wasnt a full one. She wouldnt be feeling much likesmiling for the next few days. ' In regards to what?'

Melanie_trm (Quick Dopper, knock on Shalee's doorbefore she changes into something skimpy, on second


7/38

thought, I subscribe to HM Cam so let her change first ) Jedi_Master_Sage : [here's a question, if Gandalf was able

to call on the giant eagles for help, why didn't he say to them"hey guys, if you help us out, we can get the ring to Mount

Doom in a fraction of the time, and not have to endure threemovies that take longer to > Jedi_Master_Sage : >see than to read the book, do taxes

and mow the lawn"]Dopper_NSF he had known that she would go upto her re-

arranged room, with new tile work to be aquired be Hm's sn : Because it wouldnt be as

dramatic) Shleeerr : lmfao) sn : and the eye would have

burned them to a crisp seeing as the eye seeseverything)

sn : Plus they would have beenshot down by a million orcs in the process)

Dopper_NSF : hey i already saw her in that stuff, itripped and couldn't breathe, but i saw jus fine...)))

sn : thus, resulting in the deathof the entire eagle race)

Eugene_Harrison_ thoughts that had filled his qucikly take

the back seat with her recent remark, "that is the firsttime I have seen you fight someone" his eyes move fromhis water to her thigh, where the blaster holster remains

Jedi_Master_Sage : oh... right, damn you defeating my plotholes! now I'm forced to enjoy the LotR movies that Emmagave me for Xmas ]

sn : lol) Jedi_Master_Sage : I need you to describe what you

experienced before and after you.. made love

Dopper_NSF ran up the stairs because he saw blood on thenewly layed tile, not because he cared bout one of thembleedding....j/k))

Dopper_NSF opened the door to her quarters Tlo W Tlo : WAIT!) Shleeerr knew it would come to this point


8/38

eventually. But she still thought she could put him off abit longer. "There comes a point when someone has tofight back." She turned seeing the door opened. "Youhave a habit of that." said to Dopper. Always busting

Shleeerr in on her Tlo : I have the answer to it all) Jedi_Master_Sage : [it better not involve monkeys or

underpants ninjas] Tlo : http://lotk.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/catapult2.gif

) Tlo : watch that ) sn Some would have found it a need to

hide this from their master, or from a council member.Some would have blushed or felt a deep sense of

embarassment at even being asked the question..but allshe did was stare at him before leading him into thekitchen.

Dopper_NSF : i know, but tis biz this time... Tlo they so should have done that in the first place) Jedi_Master_Sage follows Genesis into the kitchen "There

are reasons why I ask you this"Eugene_Harrison_ turns to look who it is, and places his

water down, lots of thoughts swirled around in his head,

all the excitement was making it hard to focus on asimple subject sn :A smaller girl was there,

fussing with a plate of cookies and an excessivelylarge glass of Chocolate milk. ' Del, do me a favor.

sn Ahem..take..2) sn A smaller girl was there, fussing with

a plate of cookies and an excessively large glass ofChocolate milk. ' Del, do me a favor. Take your brother

upstairs and put him down to sleep in his crib. I'll takethe cookies up to you later.' Jaidelle looked sn up, stared at her, then Sage, then

back at her and sighed. In passing, she at least offered alittle wave to Sage before taking the baby and headingout. ' Yes..Im sure you have your reasons. '

Dopper_NSF he looked at her, and then to Eugene, and


9/38

onlky asked, but in a relief kinda sound,"what happened,in detail.."

Dopper_NSF : brb Sgt wants to talk to me)) Jedi_Master_Sage nods to Jaidelle as he sees her leave and

looks to Genesis "I can explain more if what youdescribe, matches my theory" Shleeerr : I was talking with Eugene. She

shows up. Says prepare to die or something.Fight breaks out. Then you show up.

Jedi_Master_Sage : oh man dar... you rule]]Melanie_trm Sheesh Shalee, do you have to get into

such detail? )Eugene_Harrison_ looks to Dopper, "Could this wait, likeALL previous attacks, Shalee is alittle shooken up"glances back to Shalee knowing this not to be true, "sheneeds some rest"

Shleeerr : roflmao) Shleeerr :Yes...I'll send in a report tomorrow. lexaner : I know I do ) lexaner : Its part of my awesomeness) sn Sitting down on a high stool, she

takes a few moments to gather her thoughts beforespeaking. ' would you like something first?'

sn : to drink...eat? Shleeerr : ahem) Shleeerr : respond already) Shleeerr smacks all people who are slow)

Eugene_Harrison_ looks to his water taking a sip, hisimagination thought of hundreds of ideas, he didn't havetime to think about them all, "Can i get you anythingelse?"

Melanie_trm : (Think he was afk, his Sergeant was

wanting to talk to him) Jedi_Master_Sage nods and sits down on a similar stool, hisfeet touching the floor "some nerf milk if you have any"

Shleeerr : roflmao) Shleeerr : ohhhhhhhhhh) Shleeerr : is a dork) Shleeerr shoves dopper out of her room. Then


10/38

locks the door. Shleeerr : there Shleeerr : and no sn 'Sure thing.' She hopped off her

stool to pour him a glass and in the process, began tospeak. " I cant say I have any simple explanation or aclear cut way of explaining how I felt before and after.'

Dopper_NSF : bak)) sn : I cant explain it because too

many things were happening at the same time andtoo many stimulants were causing me to react oninstinct.

Melanie_trm from the outskirts of Theed, removes aComm and sets it to Shalee's last known frequiency sheknew when she was in the KoN ~vc~Prinny, are you stillon this freq you lil freak?~

Melanie_trm : wb)Eugene_Harrison_ "you fought extremely well" takes a

seat on the couch, the same spot he sat his first timethere

Dopper_NSF : i guess??)) Shleeerr : wb) Jedi_Master_Sage : Describe these stimulants please

Dopper_NSF : are u welcom , u sure,lol?)) Jedi_Master_Sage takes the glass when its poured Shleeerr hears the comm and recognizes the

voice. She walks over to the door and opens it again toDopper, handing it over to him without replying to it.She mouthes the words 'trace it'

sn returning with his milk, she set anapkin down beside his glass before moving around tosit once again across from him.

Melanie_trm (Dopper takes out a peice of paper and*traces* the Comm's outline ... lol)

Shleeerr : lmfao)Dopper_NSF : i shall, umm yes, the report, she will beknown to evry govee, ill see to it

Dopper_NSF : you ......you......))


11/38

Eugene_Harrison_ finishes his water and stares down theempty glass, waiting for her reply, this was the first timein years he thought of haveing much harder drink

sn Her fingers steeple as she sits on the

stool. ' I've been feeling ..edgy for about two weeks now,the worst of which have occured within the last 3 days.'Melanie_trm ~vc~Hey Prinny, you there?~

sn : Edgy..erratic. I feel heatflashes and bursts of sudden energy. But..thatwasnt my sole reason for doing it. It was simply abad combination of too many things.

Dopper_NSF throws a pint glass full of .....something bad,accross her head, and continues drinkin))8Solstice has joined the conversation.

I offer you the answer you want. ' She opted to address

him by his official title as she considered this discussingrather official. ' I doubt myself. I dont doubt my path, Idont place anything above my path. I dont

Darth_Jaxtoran : ill brb))8Darth_Jaxtoran has left the conversation.

Solstice : -vc- Melanie, how about we meet in the cafe nearthe palace... the one we first met in?

Shleeerr : Alright, thank you. I willappreciate that. Good night...

Jedi_Master_Sage : There is something that you may haveinherited from my side.. something not often spoken of awayfrom Gaia or others of my kind

Melanie_trm ~That won't be a good idea darlin,someone is trying to hurt me and I am soooo frightened,will you come and help me feel safe?~

Solstice : -vc- i will do what i can... solstice out Jedi_Master_Sage : My people experience a mating frenzy

every ten years, it takes the place of reason, of wisdom, pureand unfettered passion. We call it, blood-fire. It is believedthat our blood literally becomes flammable during this time.

Dopper_NSF runs down to the security room

Solstice quietly he turned the frequencey as he began toget dressed out of his night clothes, he opned a securefrequency to the first jedi and NSF he saw on his comunit

Eugene_Harrison_ walks over to the open bar and pourshimself a drink, not sure what it is, but downs it quickly

Shleeerr after they are left alone, she looks to


14/38

Eugene drinking so quickly "Nervous?" Jedi_Master_Sage : While it only occurs every ten years

during our adult lives.. there is a secondary manifestation ofthis.. phenomenon

Melanie_trm clips her Comm to her belt and enters thesmall cabin opening a small tube containing a liquagelpouring the contents under the floor boards

Solstice -VC- (Dopper, Sage, Lorano) Jedi, and NSF agent, Ineed your help... we finally have a chance to apprehendand stop, Once and for all, Melanie Storm... Please meetme at the palace as soon as you can... Solstice -vc-

Dopper_NSF uplinks to the whole stafff of palace, andtrans mits a code to there comm

Eugene_Harrison_ "alittle, running around blaster fire,"

pours himself another, "But not nervous with you, wouldyou like a refill?"

sn She quiets while pondering this over.Here she thought she lost all reason simply because shedidnt want to think about her mother and desired todistract herself unwisely from this notion and against herown thoughts, now found herself hearing that

Melanie_trm drops several thermo caps down in thefloor board moving outside leaving a motion sensor in

the cabin8Tlo has left the conversation. Shleeerr : No, not a drink... Shleeerr advances towards him sn there could have been another

reason for her lack of reason. ' ..wait. Mom broachedthis subject with Dad once or twice. I think I wasabout..13 or so when she mentioned it. or maybe daddid. I dont know.'

sn : What secondarymanifestation?

Solstice : genesis, you do know the com message was toyou right, i only put the last name since you were theonly lorano i saw in the room))

Eugene_Harrison_ puts his glass down and turns around,smiles "then what can I get for you?" hinting toward

Eugene_Harrison_ moves toward her wrapping his armsaround her waist, "Me"Melanie_trm ~vc~Sol darlin, where are you, I am so

longer. Getting involved in a fight now would be unwisecause I'll like bail on you lol)8Chancellor_Tiberius has left the conversation.

Solstice : lol, ok, thanks for the heads up))

Jedi_Master_Sage : For those who know of our ways, somemistakenly think that married Gaians come together once adecade, but thats not so. We can do so of our own accord..sometimes one experiences.. a spark. If blood-fire is thepinnacle of passion.. a spark is a lesser >

Solstice ignors his com as he makes his way to the lobbyof the palace

sn : No..no wait. I thought it wasan Imrao thing?

Solstice : Dopper, it is agreeable to see you again, though

the circomstances are not agreeable... Shleeerr "Right answer" she presses her lips to

his, kissing him for a long moment, then leads him intoher bedroom......

Shleeerr : and I have to go now!) sn thats where she heard it. Lor had

once mentioned something Imrao's went through,

Jedi_Master_Sage : There is a technique that a jedi can useto induce tranquility in another, its use is often meant to dullan enemie's awareness, or to diminish another's rage..

Jedi_Master_Sage : but what one can use against another,

they can do to themself. I have been using this technique toquell the most potent, blazing feelings of sexual lust.. forabout 80 years

Melanie_trm ~vc~Sollie darlin, where are you, I'm sofrightened~

Jedi_Master_Sage : Its become as difficult as shaving.Dopper_NSF : Mel,kinda got me by surprise to be honest, ihadn't the slighttest idea bout her evil ways

in contact with ye, do you know whereshe is?Solstice quielty nods

Liam zips up and walks away from the cabin, taking aglance to the window.. hoping he didn't just see


21/38

someone insideSolstice -vc- why melanie, i am doing what i can to get

transportation to the cabbon to see you... you will needto be patient... and if i help you... we do this my way...

the Jedi way. -vc- solstice proudly announces sn She smiled at that..beforeimmediatly frowning. " well wait a second."

Melanie_trm the windows are frosted, the AI motionsensor looks like a silloette of a female but can not bedetermined from outside

sn : No no. Oh No you dont. I haveto meet her and Make sure She's RIGHT for you.

sn : Im not having my grandpadate some floosy artist.

sn : I know how these rock starsare.

Solstice quietly mutes his com, "she has given me thelocation to meet her, and i beleive she expects only me,however, i beleive she inteds to kill me weather or not igo alone... but she does not expect me to try to arresther, wich is our upper hand"

Jedi_Master_Sage : She's a little older than me and hasbeen quite understanding of my stance on physical contact

Melanie_trm ~well love, I don't have time to spendwaiting for you, we'll continue this another time lovah~ sn Nods, not really catching the 'little

older than me part' and truly understanding what thatmeant. ' I still wish to meet her. '

Liam shrugs and walks on away from the cabin sn : wait...Older? sn : You're like what...200 years

old?Solstice shakes his head at her reply -vc- then it is obviousyou do not turely wish my help... for you would be willingto wait and to do this my way... when you are serousabout wishing help, then contact me -vc-

Jedi_Master_Sage No. I'm only 117, she's an iegan, hercaste are better known as "angels"

Jedi_Master_Sage : No. I'm only 117, she's an iegan, her

I showed you, are real.Melanie_trm as Liam walks away from the cabin,

approaches closer and throws her Comm through thewindow, the motion sensor detecting the motion whichactivates the thermo caps which in turn ignite the liquagel under the cabin engulfing the entire structure inflame

Melanie_trm in nothing flatwnmr : so..a Shark, a Lion and a Bird cross paths,

what do you get?>> Jedi_Master_Sage : a gryffin]

Solstice : Melanie storm... oh sorry))

Solstice : ))Melanie_trm places her hands in her pockets as she

casually strolls away from the area as the night skydances to the cabin flames

wnmr : some really messed up Lorano's andShattai's>>

sn She frowned, then glanced back tothe computer screen. " Hm..Interesting."

sn : So..I can work with inducing

tranquility? lexaner : lmfao)Solstice seeing the loss of signal from her com unit he

speaks "her com is dead... either she is as well or shehas terminated her com unit...

Melanie_trm : gtg, morning routine starts) Liam flips up into the air, as the explosion throws him clear

from the area, he lands gracefully onto his feet,unharmed, but a little dusty and ash covered "damnit, I

just had this thing cleaned" he looks to the cabin andthinks thats some nasty security

Solstice : cya later tonight?)) Jedi_Master_Sage :Yes, in fact the name of that specific

technique can be found in most holocrons and is not hard tolearn, but few bother

Melanie_trm : yea, anywho, nighters for now)

8Melanie_trm has left the conversation.Solstice : cyas))

Jedi_Master_Sage : There are so many easier methods ofsubduing an enemy and most jedi either marry, or find

enough serenity to not need such an internal quelling. Jedi_Master_Sage : Do understand, that I suspect what youendured to be a lesser form of what I go through, butperhaps more frequent, if I did not use this technique, Iwould have died, had I not remarried.

Dopper_NSF : i think we shall head toward he location.. ihave a feeling..

Solstice quietly nods "Lead the way"Solstice has a feeling of his own... and knows that melanie

is not dead... doesnt know how, but he knows she is stillalive sn Her eyes raise at this..'Oh..' she said

simply before a jaidelle came trotting back in for hercookies. ' The hour is late grandpa. I'll take to heart what

you said. I'll look into this technique. Its something Ithink Zwin showed me or something like it.

lexaner in the background a small radio plays wickedgame, as he switches his routine. Moving away from the

punching bag he begins to go through the motions of

orionian hand to hand combat. It isn't anything special,mainly its a form of grappling an opponent to

sn Showed me mentally i mean. I willwork on teaching myself this skill. I need to put thechildren to bed. '

Jedi_Master_Sage : I'm glad I could help. I do not think lessof you for sucumbing to the urges you felt, itsunderstandable as no one taught it to you.

Dopper_NSF hes off towards his 'govee' speeder, hopefully

to put some miles on it sn nods with a smile..' thanks. By theway? Im not kidding about meeting your companion.

And..'she grew serious for a moment.' I think you shouldspeak with dad about an incident that took place in thegardens a few days back.'

sn : It was part of what lead me


24/38

to leaving that night with saltorius.Solstice quietly moves to a speeder rental location and

rents a speeder for the dayDopper_NSF : lol, a govee isn't good enough?P))

sn : What I felt wasnt some kindof illusion..and I've refused to broach the subjectwith him or even reach out with the force to findher again.

Solstice : remind me what a govee is again, is that thelittle car think anikan had in ep 4?))

Jedi_Master_Sage : I will when time permits. For now, I'llleave you to the children. I will tell Jenine that you'd like tosee her, she wishes to meet you as well.

Dopper_NSF : ummm, goverment owned vehicle,GOV..))) Liam just stares at the remains of the cabin, in disbelief atthe sight, all he did was pee on the wall

Dopper_NSF : if ye wish to drive ur own thats okay Sol...tis your credits

lexaner ground. But it is familiar to him and as suchreminds him of home. That in itself causes him to realizehow different times have become from the old life onOrionus.

Dopper_NSF stands by his speeder, while Sol walks sn : grandpa..before you go, Howoften should I expect this sort of thing?

sn : I mean..I spent the entire daytoday locked in the training room.

Solstice shakes his head, "Not if your Govee can seat usboth, it would not make sense for me to rent a speeder"

Jedi_Master_Sage : I have no idea, with me, other than whathappens every ten years.. it can be a few times a year,sometimes several. I have masterered this technique. But

there are other ways it can be resolved as well.. if a Gaiancannot mate, he can still resolve the >

Jedi_Master_Sage : frenzy by killing something that fightsback with similar ferocity. I don't suggest that, but sparringmay provide some comfort

Dopper_NSF even though the situation is serious, he can'thelp but bleed a little humor into the story,"if it's the


25/38

color, i can't help it...it seats 4" Jedi_Master_Sage : For you.. I don't know. Still, if you must

choose between bedding someone, or.. being alone. Onechoice has less awkward consequences

Solstice smiles politely at the joke and nods, "then i wouldbe happy to accompanie you in your vehicle" sn She inwardly smiled at that. She was

locked in the training room doing just that. Sparring..andrunning, for hours. 'I think..perhaps..sparring a nexumight be wiser. '

sn Though now she was concerned.'..What if he comes back?' she questioned very quietly. ' Ibelieve he will.'

Jedi_Master_Sage : Its hard to fight against natural urges inyour own strength, I consider using the force.. a means ofcheating.

sn : I mean I could very wellremain with my master during this time but shehas duties to her husband..and I have duties tothe children.

Jedi_Master_Sage : But it is a cheating I approve of... ohdear, yes, this I was concerned about. Who was it you wentwith?

Solstice quietly he climbs into the govee and waits fordopper to drive off sn She figured it would have to be the

force then. She'd have to train herself to work throughthis and teach herself this ability. 'A formerRBGN..Saltorius.'

Jedi_Master_Sage : A clone more likely, Saltorius was killedmany years ago.. yes I think I have met him

sn This was news...'A clone?'8sn has left the conversation.

Dopper_NSF drives off, turns his lights on...8sn has joined the conversation.8sn is away.

Jedi_Master_Sage : wb]Solstice : "she is not dead"

Jedi_Master_Sage :Yes, I think so, I don't recall Saltorius

min ago )Dopper_NSF : as if there was a choice ,lol)))

sn 'Oh..duma..'she murmured, feeling aheadache begin. '..I think I should put the children to bedand go sleep myself.'

Jedi_Master_Sage : Sometimes, I wonder if clones will oneday outnumber people born naturally

Dopper_NSF : may i have your commlink, i can trace it, onthe 'nav'

Solstice hands it to him, "Even though her unit is dead...there is no signal of any type to or from her com unit?"

sn She didnt respond to that at first asshe rose. She was thinking of the presence she felt, thatof her mothers and wondered, if that was possibly aclone.

sn Needs to go to bed ) lexaner "I am such an anti social person" he says to k17

as he finishes his routine.Dopper_NSF laughs a lil," i have tricks of me own lad"

sn : We'll speak more on thistomorrow grandpa. I have some questions but itslate and The kids wont go to bed unless I throwthem in it.

wnmr : then go to bed >> Jedi_Master_Sage stands and makes his way to the front

door "sleep well, try not to worry about him, I'm surehe'll understand the concept of a one night stand"

Jedi_Master_Sage : Good night lexaner : Seriously I think in my time here I have

taken the opportunity to speak with like what 5

people and at most it was only for a few moments. sn : Goodnight! sn night people)

Dopper_NSF : back lemme scroll to catch up..)))

Liam looks away from the cabin and to the speeder "heyguys, hope this wasn't your place" he says, speaking ofthe ashes that remain of the cabin

Jedi_Master_Sage notices Boto by the pier and approacheshim, having not seen him in some time

t had a feeling he wasn't really alone anymore, and helet the rock drop dead into his hand, and he closed hisfingers around it... looking over his shoulder some to seesage "oh, tis only ye..." he said in a bitter tone, and wentto throw the rock angrily>

Dopper_NSF since Sol decicded to hop out and call it anigth, he knew it would be impossible to tac her himself,he gets out and confronts Liam

t into the water... "am I sittin on yeer feckin door mat?spose I better go, sorry, dinnae see th' 'jedi only' sign"

Dopper_NSF : Liam?, you sent Sol a message? Liam folds his arms "look, its your own fault for having a

self destruct device for a cabin"Dopper_NSF : tis not mine..

Jedi_Master_Sage : Where is this coming from?Dopper_NSF : hopfully his

Liam wonders how Dopper knew his name.. but thenrealises he's wearing the jacket with the nametag on it.."I don't know a Sol, I just came by this way.. and the

anytin wrong, bu' a shor' lil mick ken... " he scoffed andshook his head, with all that, he felt a friend had

abandoned him, Paul didn't take abandoment well Liam : Who are you and why did you come out here? Jedi_Master_Sage : She's dead.

Dopper_NSF : can you give me a description of her, and toher i mean the woman you saw, i would think an NSF

agent logo would explain myself.. t well goody fer her... tis wha' she deserves... "okay

now that was just low... Paul was not normally thatcallous

Liam : I didn't see anyone here.. tell me who you are and showme a picture of her Liam : maybe I can help

Dopper_NSF he went back to the speeder and grabed ahololog of the woman, showed it

Jedi_Master_Sage : No, she deserves to be here and endureyour outburst, but she isn't.

Liam looks to the picture "Pretty, who is she?" t me outburs... ain't entirely fer her" he said quietly

and looked to sage, paul was only 27 still rather young,despite the fact, he often carried himself much older, itcame from the life he had lived... yet, there was still avuneralbility in him "ye >

Jedi_Master_Sage : What she did was without doubt wrong,the council had been ready to expel her from the order, butshe had taken a transport to Dagobah.. when she steppedout, she faded into the force

Jedi_Master_Sage : I know I in part, defended her, but onlybecause I was not sure she had acted of her own accord.. it

turns out she did. she was just.. misguided. She meant noharm, but did much.

t were sposed tae be a frien'... an' yet, yeer turned onme, an' backed her, took me as a feckin liar!" heshrugged as he said what happened to tath, though,somewhere, under his anger it hurt

royal, im sure other things will surface soon enough, did

you see her?

Dopper_NSF : melanie*)) Liam : No, I told you, I came here to pee, left and nearly got

blown up by whatever was in that cabin, now who are you?Dopper_NSF he was carefull not to open everything to him

fore he couldn't trust him as of yet Liam : I might be able to help Jedi_Master_Sage : If I fail to be objective, if I take sides

without knowing all the facts, I fail as a friend. I neversupported Tathra beyond maintaining that I needed to hearher side of the story

Dopper_NSF : im agent Ender Dopper of the NSF,no notNSS, me and a jedi were set out to find her at this

location Liam : Well she's gone now, probably used the explosion as

cover t ye never feckin supported my side o' th' story tho did

ye? I ain't lied in all me life, I weren' gunna start then... 'fyeer didn' notice, she dinnae turn me dark... " he calledanother rock to his hand and flung it into the lake

Liam : The debris might have covered some footprints Jedi_Master_Sage :Your side had enough support from

you. Tathra was not present to speak for herself. I had to besure she had not acted out of another's manipulations

Dopper_NSF shes is a darksider i think, they usuallyrunlike cowards in these ways,"was not goin tosugarcaot the fact he hated darksiders with passion

Jedi_Master_Sage : I believed you, I never expressed doubtof your perception. But even you could not have been

completely certain that Tathra had been herself. I neededthat certainty before acting.

Dopper_NSF she would have used something to rid ofthose also,no bother lookin

Liam : Running isn't always cowardly, its sometimes justsmart. But I get what you mean, whats she wanted for? whois she connected with?


32/38

t "coulda been a lil more... tactful how ye said 't... " hefurrowed his brow a little... Paul, had seen saage, as afriend, maybe a father figure to some point... it had hurthims to lose that, and he was really, an emotional young

man. "ye made 't sound>Dopper_NSF : she would have used something to rid ofthose also,no bother lookin

t like, she were a Jedi, thus, were better in yeer eyes" Jedi_Master_Sage : I'm a gaian, we speak plainly and do not

often use double meanings.

Dopper_NSF : attempted assasination of a La Cerra, ofother things im sure of also, but im going off this, fore it

will seal her fate just in itself

Liam : If you look into her other crimes, you might get an ideaof how to better track her down.

Jedi_Master_Sage : I never said she was better, I simplyexpressed my hope that she was not in control of herself. Ihad considered the possibility she was aware of her actionsand knew what it would mean.. I had to plead with Jenine tokeep our relationship secret, just >

Jedi_Master_Sage : to prevent her from becoming a target t "ye also dinnae how tae say things a lil more...

t voice going quiet.. "Jenine... Bernie.. well... cool" hesaid still rather quietly

Dopper_NSF : u are right, but tonights expeedeant reponsewas jus for that high crime itself

Liam : Here's a clue, any time you know where to find her,

don't follow, just go for what would be her best escaperoute, think ahead of her

Dopper_NSF : i do not like it when royalitly have to hidebehind thier own pillars

Dopper_NSF : i already am thinkin like that Jedi_Master_Sage : I'm sorry you misunderstood my


33/38

meaning, but I never actually said Tathra was in anywaybetter. And if I seemed closed off, I do not try to reason withpeople when they are angry. There is a saying of one whotries to take a bantha by the horns.

Liam :you could use a la cerra as bait

Dopper_NSF : i don't call it that, but thas kinda why shesall locked up at a location, i knows that palace like Ron

knows juri juice Liam : And this Storm will count on that, you have to make it

appear that you don't have the upperhand t shrugged softly at that... "I should be sorry, I was

already tae walk up tae ye an' punch ye in th' face... " helaughed softly and shook his head "I let other tings twist

me head a lil tae... sorry..." Jedi_Master_Sage : Its alright. Are you truely happy thatTathra is dead? Her spirit most likely bound forever toDagobah's caves?

Dopper_NSF : ddi i forget to mention that, iv known her forawhile now, personally, aand unless all that was a decoy, i

know what she is mostlikely planning to do Liam : Hey take it easy, I'm just trying to keep things in

perspective. I know you're skilled at this, but this chick

seems slippery. And I've known a few girls in my time whowere more slippery than a female twi'lek's lekku, when itsgreased and sweaty from

Liam : dancing Jedi_Master_Sage : Tathra was once Leongatha, murderer

and manipulator, a kidnapper and worse, she was mad andevil.

t tae be honest... I dinnae... " he said quietly "she hadbeen like a mother tae me... I lost mine so very long

ago... I trusted her tae help me along righ'... an' she didtha'... hurt a lot... I mean, I am dorry she died, am I sad?nae... I dinnae tink so>

t am I gunna miss her, nae... am I glad shesgone, aye,some... "

Jedi_Master_Sage : Don't feel too bad for her. She had agarden of severed heads and would walk through it, wearing


34/38

naught but a cloak. She saught atonement as a jedi, but itseems her only penance, the only act she can do to redeemherself, will be to offer some comfort>

taking his shades off... rubbing at his eyes "tis wha' Ibeen doin' all me life... I got trough fine... "

Jedi_Master_Sage : Rubbing your eyes and pretending youcan see in the dark like a Cathar?

Jedi_Master_Sage :You can get sunglasses that adjusttheir glare reduction in reaction to light levels, that retain

their external tint t laughed at that and shook his head a little... "tha'

ain't wha' I meant... as fer me shades... partially, theyare fer medical reasons... mostly tho, they me

thing in common, both function like an engine. t : an'... wha' ye tryin' tae git at Sage? Jedi_Master_Sage : That your path can lead to breaking

down t done tha' once..." he said softly "twice now I guess

ye'd say... th' docs fix me righ' up, an' off I go agen" Jedi_Master_Sage : An interesting method. You run yourself

down to the point where another must repair you.. that wayyou can go on in life and never need to face anything

a hypocrite, he preched love and peace to the Islishpeople, but yet he hated the things they did t : Gunther)

8 has left the conversation. t so whadda ye tink I should do then?" he asked

quietly, sliding his shades back on, his protection...hiding behind the mask of the 'tough' rockstar that neverhurt...

Jedi_Master_Sage : Consider the possibility, that maybe,your way of dealing with issues, by pushing it all aside..might not be the best option.

t : an' 'f consideration of this... makes me see ye mebbe righ'? Jedi_Master_Sage : I find it always helps to talk to friends t :I dinnae wan' tae burdern me friends... nae wit me.. troubles... I

mean really, wha' righ' do I have tae feel upset? lookit me life... i should

be happy fer fecks sake...

Jedi_Master_Sage : A true friend doesn't just bear another's

burdens, a true friend also gives their own burden foranother to hold.

Jedi_Master_Sage : Its better to give than to recieve t I prefer tae listen... tae help others... " he said quietly

"I got a damn gud life, a life o' luxury... I shouldn'whine..."

Jedi_Master_Sage : Does it feel good to listen to and to helpothers?

they have the chance to listen to and help you t sighed softly and closed his eyes... "I guess... bu' who

do I talk tae... I mean, who are me friends?who ain'tgunna turn on me, an' leave me... when I do talk taeem?" that was one of his biggest fears...
