A man in a suit came down the steps from the landing pads control room and greeted Jor. "Good day sir, i understand your here as part of some investigation?"
Jor smiled "Yeah, i'm with a group called the Union, we're here to investigate the recent happenings."
The man in the suit frowned. "Recent happenings?"
"You know, that whole, nuclear bomb going off a few miles south of here." Jor said with a sarcastic tone. "Nothing important, we just want to know where they ate for lunch, i think they forgot to pay for it."
The suit continued to frown, "i'm sorry, i just don't know why you'd think we'd have anything to do with it. This is a Hanso Foundation docking port, we don't have anything to do with terrorists."
Jor shrugged "you have the only private pad in the palaces private spaceport. I figured i'd clear you out first and get it over with."
"With pleasure" the suit said. He hand signaled another pair of guards over and they flanked Jor.
Jor nodded and started walking forward. He wasn't two steps before he felt a warning through the force. He jumped to the right and a blaster bolt burned an apple sized hole in the metal floor where he had been standing. He reached out with the force to Roland and injected another thought into his mind. They're bad guys, i could use some help.
Jor looked up and saw the source of the bolt. An automated turret was hung at the center point of the hanger and it was realigning to fire on him again. Jor started running. The guards who had been next to him opened fire. Several of their ships panged against the back of his armor but he was protected for the most part.
The suit withdrew a holdout blaster from his jacket and opened fire on Jor as well. Jor slid behind a shipping crate and crouched. He didn't have any weapons, but as soon as Roland got in here with his Amphistaff the odds would even out a little bit.

Daus Lee landed his ship not to far from where a blast site is.
Daus Lee comes walking out of his ship looking around, He says a women in the distance around the blast site. He then takes off running to get where she is to ask some question and to see if there is any way he can help her.

Roland smirked as he heard the order he had been waiting for for the past few minutes. So... anyone like blasters here? He asked, as his hands found the familiar grips, and yanked them out of their holsters, before the gaurds could react. They barelly had their hands down to draw, when he fired, taking both in between the eyes, and turning to put three rounds through the door handle. He holstered one of his WESTMAR's, and picked up Jors equipment, as he burst through the door, blasting two more gaurds who was seemingly standing in the open, before diving to avoid the man in the suit. 4 down, 1 to go as far as i see! He called out, wondering where in the room jor was hiding.

Jor went back onto his hands and kicked forward, sending the shipping container right into the man with the suit, crushing him against the far wall.
"And that makes five. Where's my amphistaff?" Jor said walking towards Roland.
Back outside at the blast site, Rita was checking purchases when the new guy walked up. She took a quick snapshot of his face and logged his arrival. "Good morning recruit." She said to him.

Daus Lee replied with a smile " Hello my name is Daus Lee I had orders to come here and see if any one needed help around here. What is your name if you dont mind me asking." He then started to look around at the ground and noticed things were not right.
He then turned back to the lady and asked another question "What happened here? It looks like a bomb went off."

Jor took the amphistaff and let the rest of his stuff lay on the floor. He headed for the hangers control room and hand signaled Roland to check the single lonely ship occupying a small space in the corner of the hanger.
Outside Rita continued checking purchases via wireless connection to the local holonet. "i'm Commander Rita." She said. "In point of fact, a bomb did go off here. A nuclear device was detonated 28 hours ago which destroyed the Zeltros royal palace and the entire royal family except for Princess Kitana. We're here to investigate the incident and find those responsible."

Roland nodded his head, before quickly running up to the ship, and slicing the doors. He expected more hostiles onboard, so he drew his WESTMAR battle rifle, and replaced his helmet As the ramp lowered, he charged in the ship, scanning the corners, and finding no humans in site. CLEAR! He yelled, before looking around the ship, hoping to find something. He quickly made his way to the cock-pit, made a quick scan, and turned back to the enterence, before stepping off. Nothing living, and it doesn't appear to be any damage. Shall i comb it for hidden compartments ?

Daus Lee started to watch Commander Rita and asked her "Is there anything I can do to help?" As he said this he started to look around seeing if he could fine anything that no one has not noticed yet.
Daus Lee started to dig a hole and found something that maybe promising he picked a data pad and handed turned to Commander Rita and told her "I may have found something but it seems to have a lock on it." He then put one of his hands out with the data pad sitting in his palm waiting for it to be taken.

Rita accepted the data pad and examined it. The screen was fried and the buttons were damaged making it useless as a data pad any more but the data within it might be salvageable.
She broke the data pad in half with her hands and withdrew the pads hard drive and pocketed it for later examination. "There is indeed a way for you to help. These criminals were well armed but with outdated equipment and weapons. I've been tracking the purchases of local military surplus stores and i've come up with a few possibilities."
She held out a hand held holoprojector and a 3D map sprang to live above it. "A large purchase was made here." she said pointing to a red dot on the map. "it's a republic military surplus store that also sells the equipment the perpetrators were said to be using."
She started strapping a flack jacket on and put her gun belt on around her waist. "I'm going to there and ask around. You'll be my backup."
over at the spaceport, Jor was in the hangers control room looking over the files on the console. When Roland made his report Jor started downloading the files into his suits computer. "yeah, check for compartments, but also download everything from their nav cluster. I want to know everywhere that ships been in the last 6 months."

Roland walked calmly back onth the ship, to the main computer consel. He looked around, hooked up his data pad, and started downloading the info on the mainframe. He started walking around the ship, with a scanner out, looking for specific Electronic signals. If any weapons or computer systems had been hidden, the scanner would find it as it passed by it. It didn't take long before he found a small cache of weapons, in the floor, that attached to a seemingly empty second compartment. He quickly walked back to the cockpit to check the status of the download, before calling for jor. Jor. i found a weapons cache, and download on pad is almost done. I'll wait for your idea on the place though.

"roger that" Jor said. He continued to look through the computers data files until one jumped out at him. A recruitment video. It showed members going through various training regimes on a hard top concrete structure. Wherever they were it was high up because a skyline could be seen on the horizon.
Jor stopped the video and took a snapshot right there and cross referenced it with his suits list of major cities. One match came up with a 97% accuracy. Taris, northern hemisphere, post orbital bombardment.
"Gotcha. Roland, check their nav records on that ship. did it come from Taris or has it been to Taris in the past few weeks?" Jor yelled across the hanger to Roland.

Roland did a quick scan of most of the data that had been given. yea, they did... about a month ago, they were in that system. Records show new crew members boarded, and stashed their "equipment" in the storage area that I found earlier. He did a real quick scan of some side info as he walked off the ship, and back towards Jor. Apparently they are sceduled to head back there in a few days, to meet with superiors about next mission. Shall we givethe sups a nice surprise sir? He was refering to taking the enemy ship, into the system, and attacking the enemy at its hq.

Daus Lee looked at Rita in shock as he thought to himself "She wants me for back up."
Daus Lee whipped out two pistols with his lower two arms and with his upper arms took out two light sabers. Then looked at Rita and asked with no fear. "When do we leave? Cause I'm ready for a fight." As he said this he spins all four weapons in his hands.
Daus Lee then said " We can take your ship. I'll have my go Follow if we need it." Daus Lee then just stood there waiting for Rita to tell him what to do.

A plan was formulating in Jor's mind already. "Not us. We drop a seed into their midst it'll be surrounded by heavily armed hostiles. But i know just who to drop in there."
Jor comed the Merlin and tied into it's hypercom system and sent a message to Drake. "Drake, it's Jor. We need you on Zeltros pal, get here STAT."
Jor then sent all the information he downloaded from the hanger control console and sent it to the Merlin for analysis, then he went to the ship with Roland and looked through all the weapons in the cache. there were a bunch of rifles, several pistols, flack jackets, and two mortar deployment systems with ammunition for it all.
Jor picked up one of the mortar systems, and a box of mortars for it. A few hours in a machine shop and he'd have something handy to try out.
"Roland, run an inventory on this stuff. I'll call in a heavy lift team to take it and store it for transport back to Union HQ. Then we're going for a trip to Taris." Jor said.
He keyed his com to Rita. "Rita, Jor here. got a lead. finish up and pack everything in we're going for a trip to Taris."
Outside, Rita received the message. "Understood, I'll finish up here ASAP and meet you at the Merlin."
Rita looked at Daus and frowned. "i don't think you understand. We're going to a commercial area filled with people to a legitimate business to ask some questions. We're investigating the place, not performing a hostile occupation of it."
