By the time Kayen's ship exited hyperspace, he had nearly finished making a lightsaber. All he needed was a crystal. The hilt was made out of engine parts, the energy cell had come from his blaster rifle which may have been suicide, and the lens had come from a datapad. Kayen attached the still useless lightsaber to his belt as the ship landed in a random city hangar bay and Kayen hurried out of the ship.
Looking around through his blue eyes, Kayen headed for the nearest cantina and started to ask if anyone had seen a Lambda class shuttle land recently. Nothing turned up so Kayen left the cantina and ventured into the marketplace.
As he walked, Kayen saw something interesting in one of the stalls and he walked over to investigate. It was a necklace with a crystal on the end of it, but the crystal seemed to glow in the light. Kayen picked up the necklace and paid for it before he hurried away. In a little alley, Kayen put the crystal into his lightsaber and pushed the button. A reddish purple blade ignited and Kayen smirked as he twirled the lightsaber carefully.
After a few moments, he deactivated the lightsaber and started to walk through the city, asking various people about the shuttle.

Kayen kept looking for hours but he was getting no closer to finding Jor and he was beginning to get tired. He made his way to a small hotel and got a cheap room. Kayen laid down in the ratty bed and dozed off.
After a few hours of sleeping, Kayen was awoken by a noise in his room. He quickly sat up only to see a Twi'lek female in his room digging through the drawers. Thankfully Kayen had nothing in the room, but when he sat up the woman spun towards him and swung her double bladed vibro sword down vertically towards him.

Kayen saw the blade coming and he rolled out of the bed as the sword cut into the mattress. He quickly and instinctively pulled the lightsaber from his belt and ignited the blade. Kayen lunged forward, instincts driving him as he cut the woman across her gut. As she fell across the bed dead, Kayen looked down to her surprised. He didn't realize that instincts had allowed him to do it... or perhaps it was the Force. Kayen returned the lightsaber to his belt and quickly left the hotel through the window to avoid the authorities.

The Tarisian Police had arrived in the hotel room to investigate the dead woman but Kayen was already long gone. He was traveling through the city but he finally had a plan to find Jor. He was going to find the closest Air Traffic Control Center, break in, and hack into the landing logs. And so, Kayen had found a black cloak and wrapped it around himself to hide his lightsaber.
He finally reached the center and muttered "shit..." as he realized it was guarded by several laser turrets and armed guards. Kayen walked around the center into a back alley and then he saw a sewer grate. "Hell..." he muttered as he opened the grate and jumped in. As soon as he hit the sewage, Kayen grew nauseous but he kept going.
After walking until he was sure he was under the center of the building, Kayen ignited his lightsaber and started to cut into the roof of the sewers and through the floor of the building. Debris fell around Kayen as he climbed through the hole.
Blaster bolts tore towards Kayen from a pair of armed guards with blaster rifles and he quickly ran behind a computer terminal. Bolts hit the terminal and sparks flew. The lights in the corridor went out and Kayen quickly bolted towards the guards using his instincts and his lightsaber to guide him through the darkness. The first guard's blaster was cut in half and he was kicked into the second one. Kayen quickly kicked that blaster away and then he looked at the guards who were muttering "don't kill us, Sith Spawn!"
Kayen growled softly "I'm no Sith, just sit down and shut up! I just need information... get me into the computer system logs. I want all arrivals of shuttles in the past 48 hours!"
One of the guards nodded and moved to an undamaged terminal and he started to push buttons. After a few minutes, he stepped back and nodded to Kayen who moved over to the computer. Hm... 4 shuttles.... 2 lambda's. Kayen scrolled sideways and looked at the refueling requests. Only 1 of the ships had requested a full refuel and it was docked near a hospital. He smiled and quickly downloaded that hangar location to a data chip. He looked at the guards and nodded "thanks" before he jumped back through the hole in the floor.

Kayen hurried through the city until he found the hangar he was looking for. It was unguarded, so he walked into the hangar and looked around. There were a few ships but the Lambda he was looking for was off to one side. Kayen quickly ran over to the ship and looked around the loading ramp for any security measures. When he didn't see any, Kayen ignited his lightsaber and cut through the hull and then he climbed in.
He looked around the ship and saw a stasis chamber with signs of recent use. Jor must have been kept in there... Kayen moved into the cockpit and activated the computer system. He tried to load the logs but the data was encrypted and all he could see was a picture of a staff with a green snake wrapped around it. Kayen growled softly and started to upload the data back to his ship to decode later.
When he had started that, Kayen finally sat down in the pilot chair and closed his eyes. He had been running ramped for the last day with little sleep and he was desperate for a little rest. As his eyes closed the image of the snake seemed to be burned into his mind but then he realized it was more... Kayen could feel the location of the image. It was on a door somewhere in some dark underground tunnels below the hospital. As he saw that, Kayen whispered "C'mon Jor... it's not enough..... help me find you....."

Kayen sighed as he opened his eyes and looked around slowly. Everything seemed to look... no not look... feel a little different. Kayen didn't know it but the force was guiding him now. He quickly ducked through the hull hole and left the hangar. He pulled the black cloak over his head, giving himself an evil look as he headed towards the hospital. As he reached the area of the hospital, Kayen looked around and then he looked down slowly...
There were no people around so he ignited his lightsaber and slammed it into the ground. The pavement started to melt and then gas seeped up into the street. The ground was hot to Kayen's skin but he was ignoring the burning sensation. And finally it all ended, the street collapsed and Kayen fell through.
He coughed dust and gaseous fumes as he stood up and as he turned around he saw it... a huge door with a picture of a staff and serpent, just like he had seen in the ship. Kayen grinned and he stepped forward to try to open the door but it wouldn't move. He quickly sent his lightsaber into the center of the door but the blade shorted off and Kayen blinked "a cortosis door...?"
Kayen growled again and he stepped back. He was getting mad now... a road to the dark side but it was also his way in.... as he stood there, Kayen lowered his lightsaber and closed his eyes. "Let's see if the Sith knew anything about focusing..." he whispered and then he screamed loudly. He focused his anger on the door, ignited his lightsaber and ran forward. The first swing bounced off the door and the lightsaber flashed but he kept swinging until the door cracked. Kayen stepped back and then he ran forward again and slammed his entire body weight into the crack and he went straight through. Of course he had hurt himself, but he was in.

But what Kayen's big problem was his landing wasn't just hard, but that he landed in the midst of four B2 battle droids. The Droids reacted with their mechanical efficiency, deploying their wrist mounted blaster and pointing them at the intruder.
"Freeze dirt bag" one of the droids said.
Deeper into the facility, Mr. Blue received word of the intruder alert. He disconnected himself from his regeneration unit and walked down to the armory. As he walked he was busy sending out alerts to the commando team stationed in the facility itself.

Kayen got up to his knees and looked up at the droids. He smiled slowly as he realized that they were B2's and only marginally more intelligent than their B1 predecessors. He would have to use that to his advantage and he quickly yelled "kill me and this whole facility and everyone in it goes sky high! That's right I'm carrying multiple explosives... and you don't want to kill your owner, do you, bolt bucket?"

Unfortunately for Kayen, his assessment of the battle droids intelligence was dead on. They really were only marginally more intelligent then their B1 brothers and were only capable of doing what they were programmed, which for this particular quartet was to kill any intruder who didn't surrender immediately.
All 4 droids leveled their blasters at kayen's head and fired a single shot each, simultaneously.

Kayen's eyes grew huge as he saw the blasters and then he did the only thing he could do, he ducked as the blaster bolts hit all 4 droids. Kayen quickly ignited his lightsaber and spun around to slice through any of the surviving droids... and then he turned to look down the corridor and he started to move forward.

The 4 battle droids shot each other in the chest. Kayen's blades removed their legs at the knees and the quartet fell to the ground, unpowered and harmless.
Mr. Blue received the information as soon as it happened. he instictivly knew the four gate guards were now gone. he opened the door to the armory and withdrew his weapon. The 18 in long cylinder shaped device fit neatly onto his back and he also took a small blaster pistol for good measure.
He exited the armory and engaged his stealth field, turning invisible and started running for the door. The soldiers would get their first. and the backup droids were activating in their storage room in the upper levels right now and preparing to engage the enemy as well.

Kayen picked up one of the severed droid arms and deactivated his lightsaber before he ran quickly down the corridor and he heard the footsteps of incoming soldiers. He looked around quickly and then he ducked into a small indention in the wall and he waited, gripping his makeshift blaster tightly. He quickly broke extra pieces of the arm off and fit his hand into the arm to grasp the firing mechanism of the blaster. He closed his eyes and set it in his mind that he would have to kill... this was a war and he was fighting to save an ally. Kayen opened his eyes and then he slowed his breathing until he was silent. He knelt there and waited...

The 8 super soldiers were there first, moving in standard 2 by 2 formations and covering eachother as they moved down the corridors of the facility. They had specialized blaster rifles. Long barreled, very accurate and more powerful then most. They were set for three round bursts and the group was prepared to shoot to kill.

Kayen waited until the men had passed him and then he darted out of the hole and fired twice directly into the back of the last two soldiers and then he ducked back into the hole to avoid return fire.

The first soldier went down hard, a hole burned in his back. Kayens second pair of shots caught the first soldier in the shoulder as he fell to the side which saved the second soldiers life.
The 7 remaining soldiers turned and opened fire. Chips of rock came off the stone walls as they fired their rifles in sequence.
