((OOC: did you get this location off Wookieepedia or did you just make it up? if you did get it from wookie could you send me the link?"))
An already sand blasted Dragoon touched down outside the small settlement of Jeta De Vida. Jor Halcyon climbed down from it's side hatch, two blasters hung from his hip and his new sword on his back.
The republic representative was supposed to be around here somewhere, but he figured he'd let the guy come to him, rather then wander around in the hot sun looking. He walked into the settlement and found the nearest bar, a down and dirty place called The Chug. He sat down at the bar and ordered a glass of Corellian Whiskey with plenty of ice.

Mon Jeta de Vida was known for its rich estates, popular and expensive bars and restaurants, and large space port. A bar that stuck out from the luxurious city was The Chug, a down and dirty place. Ambassador Hussie was in the private suite of the bar, his bodyguards standing around him. Hussie sat in a leather chair, his blue robes draping from the sides. He was a peaceful man, wanted to avoid conflict at all costs, and his battlefield was on the diplomatic side of things. He had a bottle of Corellian Ale with two class cups on the table, along with a leather chair sitting empty across from him. One of his bodyguards came up to him.
"Jor Halcyon is here, sir."
"Send him up, Captain. I would rather talk with him in private, however."
"Yes sir." The Captain walked out of the room as the rest of the body guards followed. Two stayed outside the door while the other two walked around the bar. The Captain saw Jor and took a seat next to him.
"The Ambassador courgely invites you to the suite upstairs." said the Captain. "Your weapons won't be necessary in the suite, but he does understand if you wish to bring them in." he added.

Jor nodded. He made a show of removing the power packs from his pistols and placing them on the bar before holstering them again. They still held their initial charge though and that would be good enough to deal with one ambassador.
"lead the way there muscles." Jor said.

The guard lead Jor up the stairs and past the two guards. He stepped to the side and looked at Jor.
"The Ambassador is pleased to see you." said the guard as he lead him into the room. Once the two men were in, he left the Ambassador and Jor to themselves.
Ambassador Hussie looked up to Jor and put away his holopad. The Ambassador stood up and reached his hand out to Jor. "Warmaster Halcyon, it's a pleasure to meet you. Please, have a seat. Would you like some Corellian ale?"

Jor remained standing until the guards left, then he pulled a chair out from the table and sat. He waved away the drink. "I had some spirits downstairs. Would you like to tell me what this is about?"

The door to the room closed behind Jor. Hussie took a deep breath and poured himself some ale. "One of your warriors, Drake Hellion, has been arrested for suspected espionage on Coruscant. He is being held for questioning as we speak."

"yeah, i got that part in your message. So lets fast forward to the part where you tell me what this is all about." Jor said getting a little frustrated.
"You obviously didn't invite me to the ass end of the outer rim to tell me Drakes rights as a prisoner are being respected and that he's been processed for release because he obviously wasn't spying on the republic." Jor said.

Hussies nodded to Jor's raised voice. The Ambassador put his hands together then leaned forward. "You have two people that have escaped from Republic Authorities on Coruscant. Their names are Ryuu Drake and Moonfire. We will be willing to exchange Drake Hellion for Ryuu and Moonfire. Simple as that."

"Moonfire came to the Union a few weeks ago and it's funny, she didn't mention fleeing any... "Republic Authorities" or police." Jor said.
He leaned back and shrugged his shoulders. "And as for Ryuu Drake, isn't he the Head Jedi Master at the Temple there on Coruscant? Kind of funny that you say the head of the Jedi is fleeing the Republic Authorities. It's also worth of note to say i haven't seen Ryuu since i left the Order years ago."

"I am not aware of Ryuu Drake being the head master of the Jedi Council. I was not informed by my superiors that he was. All I know, he is a wanted criminal by the Republic. As for Moonfire, she is an accomplice to his actions." the Ambassador stayed calm as he spoke and waited for Jor's reply.

"You'd think as a member of the senate you'd be more up to date on who's running your secret police force?" Jor said with a smile. He leaned forward and put his fingers together. "Listen, it's obvious you don't know who you've captured yet so let me make you a counter offer."
Jor opened his palms and lade them flat on the table. "You pay the Union, say... 50,000 Credits, and we'll take Drake off your hands. He'll cause at least that much damage to republic property when he escapes and goes on a drunken rampage."
Jor leaned back. "And don't try that old act of war line on me because you know as well as i do that if you try it i'll produce documents detailing Drakes Discharge from the Union, dated months ago, due to drunk and disorderly conduct, insubordination and inappropriate office relationships, signed by a dozen witnesses."
"Now before this i thought the republic and us were friends. We had many dealings together. we helped with that whole Zeltros royal family being killed by a nuke by lending you our investigative services. we even tracked down and killed a bunch of those terrorists in a training facility on Taris." Jor said calmly.
He leaned back even further in his chair and put his feet up on the table. "and then you arrest one of my guys for suspected spying when you know full well he's a drunken fighter, not a spy. Then you demand i return two people to you in exchange for Drakes freedom? Two people who were obviously witness to something the republic doesn't want known to the masses."
Jor smiled. "Cut the political bullshit Hussie, i've been dealing with it since before you were born. And i'm from Tishi, we don't look kindly on pond scum politicians on my home planet"

"You really think the Chancellor tells us everything? Yes, we are the Senate but some things are best not to be known for. Hell from what I hear, I think this "secret police force" as you refer to it is just our Republic Navy doing its job, protecting the interests of the Republic. Our footage shows that those two criminals fled Coruscant airspace and refused to stop. We have reason to believe that they fled to your base, where ever the hell that is, and are there as we speak!" Hussie said raising his voice. Toning it down, he continued on.
"The Republic thanks your organization for your help in seeking out those terrorists. Who says we aren't friends? If Mr. Hellion is a drunk, then why is he part of your organization? Are you really gonna let a drunk man run around when he can endanger other people? Do you see our Republic troops coming onto other planets and slobbering around with alcohol?"

"You don't expect me to answer that question do you?" Jor asked with a smile and a chuckle. This guy apparently thought all their troops were snob nosed stick up their ass die hard warriors who do nothing but eat sleep and drink military bearing during their weeks worth of shore side liberty.
"Listen, is this the part where i ask you to find your boss so we can continue doing negotiating, or the part where you admit to actually knowing a thing or two about the subject and we cut the crap and get down to brass tacks." Jor said in the best business like tone he could.

"You want to speak to the Chancellor? Well not anyone can just speak to him. And what subject? What the two fugitives did?"

"How about this. You can tell your precious chancellor that if he wants to negotiate for Drakes release, then he can send someone who actually knows something, rather then one of his idiot yes men ambassadors." Jor said with a smile.
"Until then, i guess you and i don't really have anything to talk about." Jor finished. "I'll take some of that Ale now."
