"What is it Jax, you disagree with anything?" Jayce asks as he sees the droid shake his head.

Jax turns his gaze to Jayce.  "What would I be disagreeing with sentient?"

"I don't know, but you were shaking your head, so I thought there might have been something troubling you." Jayce shrugs before walking over to Teela to check the datacard she got from Chido.

Double checking the address, Teela points at the doorway indicated on the datapad.  Teela stops at the door and looks back to the others.  "We're just going to ask this guy some questions, but be ready just in case he tries anything..."

Teela activates the door and steps inside.

Teela palms the door controls and enters a small room, filled with computer consoles and screens arranged in a circle. In the middle of this circle is a harassed looking Wookie who is currently speaking into a comm while typing with one hand.

<I told you, docking fees are per passenger, not per ship. You know what? Try landing without paying the fee, we'll see how far you get with a couple ion cannons on your back!> Snarling, he slams a hand down on the mute button, then looks up to see Teela and Torin standing there. He seems a bit surprised.

<Uh, can I help you two?> The Wookie's eyes dart to Torin's lightsaber momentarily. <Always happy to help a Jedi out.>

Jayce follows Teela and Torin inside, not yet drawing any weapons.

Jax stays outside, keeping an unobtrusive eye on the door.

"I think we're better off asking one of our companions if they understand Shyriiwook." Jayce suggests.

"Torin, Jax, Rassk? Any of you understand it?"

Jax walks in, playing the part of a normal protocol droid.  "I am quite fluent in Shyriiwook."

The Wookie turns to Torin. <Chido, you say? And Jabba? Must be serious. What do you need to know?>

<The Confederacy kidnapped the ambassador? Those imbeciles! If they were really such a righteous cause, they wouldn't resort to such underhanded means to accomplish their goals! But I suppose that's not what you're looking for, master Jedi.> The Wookie winks, then taps a few keys and removes a datacard from the computer nearest to him. <This is every bit of information I have on nearby Confederate ship movements over the last three months, not to mention ships that have probable CIS affiliation. But I can do more than that.> He presses the comm button again, then dials in a series of numbers. A loud tone can be heard coming from behind the door at the rear of the room. <This man was involved in an incident with the CIS not too long ago. He's been here looking for work, but he might know a thing or two you could find helpful.> Footsteps can be heard approaching the door briskly and crisply shortly before it slides open.

As the door opens, the light from the two setting sun shines around the silhouette of the figure in the door frame.  The figure towers over anything under 1.8 meters tall.  As the a brisk wind blows into the room, the figure's tattered cloak rustles over the magnificent sand-gold bulky armor, blacked in parts obviously from carbon scoring- definitely this individual has seen action. Its appearance is almost like a small military tank. Appearing to be a one-man army.

As the figure raises its head to the eye level of the party.  The figure's helmet's T-slit glows a shockingly red hue.  The figure is tense and holds a distinct military blaster rifle in its right arm and what appears to be a frag-grenade in the other.  A bandolier is strapped across its chest.  It looks like walking death.

His stance is first defensive, but seems to slacken after he notices the wookie behind the computer consoles.

He glances at the room soaking everything else in including what ever details he can observe of the party of sentients infront of him.  Before he enters the doorway he discreetly glances over his shoulders to pick up on anyother details as he covers his "six".  

He enters the room and eases the blaster rifle aimed to the ground, yet still looking like a corellian panther about to lash out.

He looks toward the wookie and the helmets voice projector vocalizing a male gruff voice as he shrugs

Well... I never quite know what type of company you keep.  With all the chakaar floating around this city, one can never be too careful.

Aren't we imbued with the righteousness of your cause when we take up arms for you? Would you rather you own men and women died to make the point? And if your war is so noble, so necessary- why aren't you fighting it yourself? Think of all that before you spit on us, aruetii.

Torin's red blade flashes to life as is immediately pointed at the figures neck, State your name.
