"I'll do you one better then that." Jor said to her. "You say you have a lifetime of memories. Growing up on Zeltros, hanging out with Princess Kitana. Do you remember the first boy you kissed? The first crazy party you went to? Remember the first guy who took you to his room to play doctor?"

Drake looked at Elisa and sighed shrugging his shoulders "Fine I'll let you handle this" he said, he looked over at Jor as he asked his questions. Drake smirked some at the simple fact that he couldn't remember his last party let alone the first one he went to. He crossed his arms and looked over at Elisa to see if she would answer Jor's questions, Drake wasn't good with sensing feelings and crap but he could some what. Either way this would be funny to hear her answers.

Elisa looked at the Jor. What are you getting at she asked herself. "Yes, I have a few memories of playing with Kit; but she was not a princess back then. The first boy I kissed was named Alex Zanconi; or I think it was Zanconi. He was a real cutie but he had a crush on Kit. I was never a real party person, but I do remember a few that Kit dragged me to before I left Zeltros. Polus was not the real party world and I was too busy in college to party. And to your last question; while it is none of your business I have never been with a boy. But you should know all of this if you were in my head." Elisa tried to ready Jor's emotions. There was some frustration with dealing with her. However the more he question her; the more she was confident she was not a clone.

"Never, not during your entire life, have you ever been with a guy... and yet here you stand before me, a Zeltros, a gorgeous one at that, who claims she's never had intercourse." Jor said. "Who claims she's only been to a few parties because she was too busy studying."
Jor crossed his arms. "I'm all for believing that people can overcome their genes but you honey take the cake. Your natural empathy would make resisting sexual advances incredibly difficult. And if you resisted then these parties would eventually become less wild and more to your own nature because it would feed off your own emotions."
Jor tapped his heads. "Science tells us the simplest explanation is usually the correct one. Is it simpler to believe that you overcame your upbringing, genetics and culture against all odds, or that you have implanted memories which were designed to explain why you still have a Hymn at your age?"

Drake looked at the two as the continued their exchange, Drake sat back down and crossed his arms smirking. "Well maybe she's the odd one out...there's one in every group" he said to Jor "I mean hell look at us and the Jedi, neither one of us don't exactly scream 'Jedi Master of Light" he joked, though he did find it weird that she was the odd one out, but what the hell. Drake reached in his cloak and pulled out his flask, he took a drink from it. He sighed and held the flask upside down shaking out nothing "Great, I'm on empty..." he said sighing "You think this planet we're going to has booze?" Drake asked Jor hoping to shift the topic back to the mission they were supposed to be doing, instead of playing 20 questions with Elisa.

Elisa looked at Jor. "I personally believe the first. It is easy not to fall into such bad habits when you did not spend your entire life on Zeltros." Elisa decided that it was time to make a choice. She can continue to pursue this course and maybe find out she is a clone or not; or she could simple accept herself as a living breathing Zeltros and the method she came into this galaxy did not matter. "End the end; it does not matter one way or the other. Should I be a clone" Elisa said with a slight sadness. “I am still a living creature. Identical twins share the same DNA but it is their experiences what makes them differ. The same could be said about clones with implanted memories." Elisa looked down as she talked. After a moment of paused she looked back up into Jor's eyes. "Then again, maybe I am a clone programmed to only beleive that I am not a clone until Kitana sends a code word that makes me shot you while you in the back because you are too big of a threat to her." Elisa smiled showing she had a cynical side. She had needed to make a wise crack at this moment, this topic was getting to philosophical and she still did not believe herself a clone; well for the most part.
When Drake butted in again she looked over at him then back at Jor; "Is he serious? He would get loaded during a recon mission." She looked back at Drake holding his flask. This was one hell of a fuck up bunch of people. A war hero with major trust issues and his drunken side kick that thinks a recon mission is a hunt for another bottle of liquor.

"Actually i'm more inclined to believe Kitana programmed you to do just that. But seeing as i'm not going to lock you up in the brig on a gut feeling, and i don't think your going to be going away, i guess we're at an impasse" Jor said.
"Drake, grab a X-wing, we're going down to the planet." Jor said. "Miss, if your so inclined you may follow us. We're in another universe, so i think it's safe to say your out of range of any influence Kitana might have over you for now."
As he and drake started to walk towards the fighters he leaned his head over to talk quietly with him. "Hopefully with you sober you'll land your bird instead of letting my hanger deck do the landing for you."

Drake sat there and listened to Elisa what she said made sense but then again he wasn't the leader of this little operation, he was just along for the ride. Drake looked down at his empty flask he sighed and put it away, looked like he was going into this sober, he stood up and looked at Elisa "Of course I'm being serious..." he laughed "I fight better drunk...its a long story but I do better going of my instincts alone and I do that better drunk" he laughed. He walked with Jor he found it weird that whenever he mentioned booze around Kitana she always would want to drink him under the table. That proved in Drake's mind atleast that Elisa and Kitana were different.
He looked at Jor when he mentioned crashing his xwing "Har har very funny" he said climbing aboard it. "You know I fly better drunk" he joked.

Elisa put on her helmet and walked back over to the her CHF-18. She sat down in the cockpit and punched several buttons causing the screen to light up. She then slowly rotated the wing like fighter around and brought Jor and Drake into view. "What frequency are you guys going to be using?" Elisa yelled with the cockpit still open.
She waited for a response then closed the cockpit. She turned to that frequency and sat back in the seat relaxed. She flipped a switch with killed her mic and waited for Jor and Drake to launch. "This is going to be a blast. I just want to help and it turns out that the Jedi that asked for help is a paranoid freak that really does not want it. That is the sign of a true jackass." Elisa said to herself, voicing not only her frustration of dealing with Jor, but also her dislike of being called a copy or even worst implying she was just some weapon to be wielded by her friend.

Jor climbed into his X-wings and turned over to Drake. "I know how you fly period, and it's usually never pretty when it comes to landings." He shouted.
When Kitana asked what frequency they would be using Jor thought about it for a second before responding. "We'll be broadcasting in the clear for the most part. Don't want anyone on the surface getting nervous. If we need to switch to a tactical frequency i'll call it mid mission." He said.
Jor sat down into the X-wing's seat and started the power up procedures. A crewman put the canopy in place and locked it down while an Astromech was loaded in the back. Jor powered up the communication circuits first and talked to his astromech. "Whats your designation?"
The droid whistled and hooted for a few seconds and the text translation appeared on the screen. I am R5-D16, Astromech and repair droid.
"Ok, R5-D16, i'm going to give you a new designation as... DeeDee." Jor said with a smile.
The droid whistled some more. Affirmative, designation accepted.

Drake looked at Jor "Thats funny, you're a regular comedian tin man" he said climbing into the xwing. He started the systems up and heard Elisa and Jor talking about the frequency they were using. He stopped paying attention after a few moments as he continued his systems check, seemed like everything was fine even though they had just come out of battle only a few hours earlier. Drake sighed heavily, there was obvious tension between Jor and Elisa it was loud as hell even he could sense it. Sucked that they couldn't hash out whatever issues they had before the mission, but at the time Drake didn't have time to worry about who would betray him or not.
Drake flipped on his com link "So we ready to roll?" he asked Jor.

Elisa flipped back on her mic and turned to the open channel. "ATF. Elisa Sedna onboard the CFH-18 tail number Alpha-1138-Kilo requesting permission to launch from the Saucy Mare main hanger." Elisa figured she better fallow every protocol down to the letter; Jor did not seem to trust her enough to allow any deviations.
A few seconds later a voice came over the radio. "Permission granted Alpha-1138-Kilo. Lowering magnetic shield. Good flying." The voice said.
Elisa fired up her thrusters and slowly moved out of the hanger and into space. She flipped a switch with activated the ships transponder; which could be turned off for stealth purposes. “Come on All Knowing Master Halcyon, Drunken Master Hellion. Little Miss Evil Clone is waiting.” Elisa was being a little bit of a smart ass, but Jor deserved it. She needed to find out if she was a clone; but that would be something for later. Right now she well she would simple accept her existence as a gift and worry about the details later. Maybe Jor could probe her mind and tell her the truth after the mission was over.

Jor's X-wing guided itself out of the hanger gently, using only repulsors. When he was clear the Jedi Master hit the engines and the fighter rocketed forward. "This is White Knight leaving the barn, keep the home fires burning Saucy Mare, we'll be back in a bit."
Jor formed up on Elisa's wing and listened to her over the Com. He keyed his own mic and laughed for a bit before saying, "Lady, you just chose your own call sign. Ripcord, form up on Miss Clones wing. We'll let her fly us down to the planet. Saucy Mare, please designate our flight as Ghostrider."
The ATC came over the com "Roger that White Knight, your flight as been designated Ghostrider. Good hunting."

Drake sighed heavily about what Elisa said "Hey I'm not drunk" he told her "Yet..." he whispered at the end of the statement. He pulled up "This is Ripcord I'm headin out" he said pulling out the ship rocketing towards Jor he pulled upa t the last second to not crash, he laughed some rubbing his head "Maybe I am drunk" he continued to laugh he waited outside until he got his orders from Jor to form up on Elisa. He pulled his xwing around to her ship "Ms. Clone?" he joked "Great pick..." he said still laughing "Already ready when you guys are"

Elisa took a breath. "Shit. I walked right into that one. I guest I well just have to hope it turns out to be as big of a joke as White Knight." She then fired up the ion engines and accelerated towards the planet. She also linked her sensor data through the communication system over to Jor and Drake’s Fighters. “Sense I have ground scanning radar. I am not a soldier so I need you two help with understanding if we run into anything that may be useful.” Elisa was not sure how they would react to her sending them tactical information, but she had no choice. She really did not understand what they should be looking for during this recon mission; but her ship was the best equipped for recon of a planet.
