"Greetings, I am Bones. I hear the federation finally wants to fight back. Seems like it's a good as time as anything. Word on the holonet is Taris is under attack," said Bones crossing his arms and evaluating the alien before him. He shrugged off his perceptions for now. "This would be my traveling companion, Rin Shepard."
Rin bowed to the alien before giving her own greeting. "It's very nice to meet you," said Rin before looking around. "This is quite the place to set up a Jedi temple. Is there any reason you picked here for a temple?"

John Paul Jones fighter reached the lower atmosphere. As soon as it was safe, he switched to manual control and started looking around for a clearing. "You see anything Gizmo?"
The Droid tooted a negative and John banked to port, taking his fighter over the Prefabricated Garrison Base. He did a flyby at 20,000 feet, tilting his fighter up on a wing so he could look down at it. "Garrison Base, Garrison Base or anyone within range of this transmission. This is Juliet Sierra 25539. Anyone out there?"

Ardus nodded to the two in turn, when they introduced themselves, before standing tall, and listening to their questions, and comments. When all was done, Ardus turned to Jik first, saying, I am sorry, but we can do little for Taris, for the time. Our fleets have yet to mobilize fully, however, We will be dispatching forces there shortly. I fear, it will be to avenge the tarians. He then turned towards Rin, and said, I have heard your kind claim that this planet is strong with the force, and while I do not deny, nor accept these claims, I see this planet as a place ripe with a savage beuty. Living here will keep our people on their toes, and tested, even on offtimes.
Having said that, Ardus decided to go straight forward. I take it your being here means you wish to join our brotherhood. If so, I have missions for both of you at the moment. Work as a team, or as individuals, at your choice. Having force users about, and their love of the energy weapons, you call lightsabers, we find ourselves having a lack of components for said items. We also find ourselves, as a young group, requiring an accurate information network. My missions for you are thus, if you will accept them. Find a source of lightsaber components, and bring them to this base, or find us an accurate information system to assist further increasing our abilities to strike the empire true.
The snipers who had surrounded jezred quickly recieved a lightsaber for their troubles, which the leader quickly tossed back, with a smirk. Move along. Our base is right that way. She said, pointing north-west, a short distance to where the tree cover started to break away, and the base could barelly be seen. The snipers were about to go back to business, when they noticed another ship coming in for landing, and went back to cloak mode, one by one. The final one, nodded to Jezred, before ushering him on, and following her squad into cloak.

Jezred willingly went along, only stopping to look back every now and again to see what was going on. Of course he figured this would make him look suspicious, but at this point he was really curious to see what there was he could be doing on this planet. He had replaced the light saber that had been tossed back to him, on his belt. Given that gesture, he was pretty sure that no one was planning on taking advantage of him being unarmed. Eventually he stopped caring about the ship that was landing and just walked forward to his destination, wordlessly treking through the force infused forests of felucia.

"Understood, i'm inbound. 539 Out." John said into his com before turning it off.
"Well Gizmo, looks like they're friendly, whoever they are." He said to the droid.
The droid turned around to look at him through the cockpit canopy and whistled a question.
John shook his head. "No, i don't think so. If it were a trap i'd feel some kind of danger. Hang on, i'm taking us in."
John looped around for a few minutes until he got on a heading towards to the garrison base. He cut his speed down and applied the brakes generously to slow him down to a nice soft landing speed. The landing was uneventful and successful. The Delta-7B Fighter touched down lightly on the hanger deck and John popped the canopy open.
"Hang on Gizmo, give me a second." He said as he climbed out. He hit the release clamps on the droid socket allowing Gizmo to raise himself up out of the fighter. "Careful, don't fall out like you did last time."

"Errand boys then eh? Well I guess I can't complain, you did just met us," said Bones cracking his knuckles. He looked over to Rin who met his gaze. "You go find lightsaber parts since you know more about those, and I'll see if I can find someone to get information on the Empire." Bones gripped his head as the word information echoed in his head.
He found himself in a room full of armed men. He was dressed to kill with guns, knives, and a lightsaber strapped to himself. The others around him seemed relaxed but alert to what was going on. Before him stood a black man in black robes. As he moved in his pacing back and forth the glint of gauntlets could be seen. Upon this man's face was a scar running from his mouth to the back of his right ear. A woman stood off to the side watching the progression of the scene and it brought a feeling that he was being silently interrogated. At last the figure stopped moving back and forth and spoke.
'You've all done so well in your task but I've one final test for you all. There can only be one of you, for I don't need a miniature army. I just want one soldier who can get the job done. You all used to be criminals, but now you are something more than you were. Prove you are the better, and kill those who would take your place in my palace,' said the man clapping his gauntlets together. Each man looked at one another for a moment before drawing their weapons and fighting began. There was a flash as time seemed to skip.
'I knew he'd be the one Iscariot,' said the man as he looked over to the woman who had been standing in the background. 'It's in his blood, just like yours.'
"Jik are you ok?" came Rin's voice as she was down on her knees next to him. He looked at her gathering his bearings before saying anything. "Yeah... I'm ok. I remember a few things.... more then before...."
Rin looked slightly worried at that realization, what exactly had he remembered? Bones smirked at the moment standing up with Rin. "Let's stick to the plan for now. You get those lightsaber pieces, and if necessary delve into our bank account to get them, I have a few things to check on..." said Bones as he gave Rin a light clap on the shoulder.
"Alright, be careful Jik," said Rin before she turned and started walking away.
"Me careful? Don't you know, I'm always careful."
"That's what I was afraid of..." said Rin muttering to herself as they split ways on their respective missions.

A smirk would have crossed Ardus' face, if he had a mouth to do so, but to those watching, his eyes narrowed, as he turned back to the garrison, and began walking into the doorway. He stopped short as he sensed another human move up towards him, a sense of ease around the man. He turned again, inside the door, but just barelly, and waited for Jezred to catch up with him.
Johns arival to the landing bay was noted only by a small security detail of 6 soldiers, all armed with blasters, and basic armor. The leader, who stepped out before his men, called out, Well met. Welcome to Felucia. As a handful of mechanics stepped forward, examining the ship. One looked to john, questioningly, as if wondering if they should start working on the vessile, or just go about their business.

John looked down at the mechanic and waved him off. "No thanks chief, i'll take care of it. But i could use a crane to get my R2 unit out of here."
He patted the droid on the dome. "They'll take care of you Gizmo, just hang tight."
The Jedi climbed off the fighter and straitened out his robes so that they fell over his armor. "I am John Jones, Jedi Knight. I am unarmed. Who runs this place?"

Jezred wordlessly marched up to the on who was apparently in charge. Of course Jezred maintained his typical level of calm, but at the same time, given the feeling of confidence he sensed from the one before him, he could not help but get the feeling this one was in charge. Given the information he had been able to glean from this he bowed deeply in front of the man, keeping his mind set on the area around him and watched using the force, the area around him. OF course it wasn't exactly as good as sight but it would alert him to movement. "I am Jezred Chaulsin, a-" He paused. Dare he call himself a Jedi at this point? With a shake of his head he resumed. "I'm a jedi Padawan learner though I've come to assist in whatever way I can." He admitted humbly.

The Stealthx of Rin slowly made it's way down the surface saying that they had clearance of Ardus himself. Rin had just been half way across the galaxy and she expected Jik to be done with his own mission by now. She was eager to get back and show Ardus that she had completed her mission well enough, and was glad it was one that didn't have much battle in it. Though she still regretted using Jik's money to buy the spare lightsaber parts but he had told her to do it himself. The StealthX finally came in for a landing and as it was slowly coming down to land it dropped the last 3 feet.
"RN-24! what was that!" shouted Rin looking out of the window towards the droid which did a ridiculous full 360 degree spin with it's head, and shouted a cacophony of beeps into the air. "What do you mean you don't know? Nevermind I have more important things to do."
Rin opened the hatch to the cockpit and stood up rubbing her rump for a moment to ease some of the soreness from the drop. Her tailbone had been jammed a bit but it was nothing serious. She hopped down out of the ship and proceeded to Ardus. When she finally found him he appeared to be talking to another human, so she nonchalantly walked up and sent a message through the force to not disrupt the man before her.
"I brought the Lightsaber supplies, I had to buy them in Imperial territory but they were all in good condition. Anyone wanting to build a lightsaber need only match up the parts they want and need to make one." said Rin through the force to Ardus. She didn't except an immediate reply so she waited patiently, looking over this man that was talking to Ardus. He certainly didn't look to be a slouch, though on the planet she was from he would have been as ugly as an inbred trandoshan.

The hanger crew quickly moved spread out, one pulling out a communicator, and passing on Johns request to the droid in control of the crane systems. Within moments, the crane came by, and took hold of the droid, before bringing it out from above the ship, and setting it down. Security waited until the noise from the crane went away, before acknowledging the question that was asked.
Commander Ardus runs this base, as of this moment. If your looking for him, I believe he is on patrol outside the building, checking up on the defense and the like.
Ardus stared for a moment, at the "padawan" who had come to speak with him. After the moment was over, he said, Your assistance is most welcome. If you would like to start off strong, I have a mission in mind for you, to show your skills. One of our comrads went into the core, and assulted the downed planet, Corellia. While he is working there, I need someone to go to Balosar. The planet is not as peaceful as it seems, as crime is said to run rampid on the planet. The mission, as it stands, will be seek out this criminal underworld, and attempt to swing them to our side. If that doesn't work, taking out their head members might swing the remaining of the group to us. With a small break, Ardus added, Asking a jedi to murder, may be a push... Take a public transport to your target. Once there, contact us only once the job is done, or in need of aid. I shall have another 50 troopers ready to assist if needed.
Once Ardus was done explaining what he wanted for Jezred to do, He turned and looked at the woman who contacted him using the force. An eyebrow lifted, as he remembered her, and her mission, and he was a little surprised she was done.
Welcome back, Rin san shepard. Please, take the components, to the armory, for the time being. He said, with a bow.

Gizmo rolled up next to John after having been lowered to the flight deck and tooted out a long sentance. John shook his head. "No Gizmo, you can leave most of the stuff in the fighter, i only need a change of clothes."
When the security officer explained who the boss was, John looked around. "No, i'm not looking for him really but i'm wondering if he wouldn't mind a Jedi Knight staying at his garrison base for a night before i go back to the Temple and report a failure on my mission. I'm not really in a rush to head back and tell my supperiors and after 19 hours in the cockpit of a fighter I could use a shower."

Jezred nodded and turned to walk away. Convincing these people to join wouldn't be so hard if those were the options available to him. As it stood, he took the time to survey the place he was in and noticed that they did in fact have a hangar bay. While he had originally anticipated it being difficult to get it, it was surprisingly easy and he only shook his head as he left the building and trekked back to his ship. Once there he flew it back, parking it in the bay before taking his cargo ship from the assassin class corvette and heading out. If he was going to get to someplace where he could even take a civilian ship, this very ship would be his transport to his mission destination, Balosar.
<<Exit Kuro to Balosar>>

Rin nodded and proceeded back to her ship. She grabbed one bag and carefully floated the other bag as she made her way towards the armory in which she asked a few passerby's where exactly that was. After getting directions she headed there and came up to the one in charge of the armory.
"What do you have there?" asked the man as she approached, staring at the bag that was floating. She slowly let it drop so not to distract the man any more then he already was. It didn't seem he was used to the force being applied as such. "Ardus told me to bring these lightsaber parts here."
"Alright I'll store them in the back, thanks for bringing them." said the Man before taking the bag on the ground and relieved her of her own bag. "No problem sir. Just doing what I was told." said Rin before taking off back towards Ardus. Unsure if he still wanted to be bothered for anything she began to train in the lightsaber form of Soresu. Jik always preferred the attack but she was finding that if you had a solid defense you could choose your attacks when the opponent had slipped on something.
