Teela sets up her headset and dials the comlink to the suggested frequency.  "Im in.  What do you have in mind?"

Over the comm Alt says I suppose we're waiting on Wheezy... uh, I mean Torin He says sarcastically.  He glances back over he shoulder at the party gathering and mounting the speeders.  He glances at his chrono:

20:09. Galactic Standard Time. We should get there early enough.

Torin jumps on his bike and mumbles something about needing to get a comm someday in Jawa Trade Language. I'm here, and next time someone calls me Wheezy, I will take a limb. He says before a slightly evil laugh comes out from his mask, I've always wanted to choke a Mando.

Alt engages his swoop's thrusters and roars forward swerving past buildings and other obstacles.  
He voices Okay. This way.

So let see... y'all are obviously doing work for Jabba and well you see you have to understand a few things about the locals here on Tatooine and the Hutts.

For those of you not familiar, the Hutts are the law here and run this backwater dust ball. They rival against each other keeping each in check.

Well, you see because of how dirty and corrupt these chakaar Hutts are, they get away with anything.  They have obtained alot of slaves and most of the farming communities are comprised of slaves to these Hutts.  

So you see, in a nut shell these slaves have joined the philosophical cause of the separatist for freedom from these oppressive Hutts, but are a more left-wing radicalists, working with some corporation here on Tatooine.  

We are heading to these radical CIS slaves, whose primary HQ is on the outskirts of Bestine.

So what are the specifics of Jabba's job concerning the CIS?  Even though I don't have those details yet, they will lead to Bestine, cause it's the biggest CIS gathering here on Tatooine, and just happens to be the closest spaceport to Jabba's palace. So if Jabba is envolved, all are answers will be tied to first going to Bestine.

Oh? Alt's voice is obviously with a hint of intrigue. A missing Republic Ambassador eh? A small pause follows over the comm channel as obviously Alt's thoughts are engaging.

That old bantha is still at it then.  He's so dedicated to his "cause". He is one atin vhett.

Well then, we definitely need to go to Bestine and see a not so friendly Duros named Mell.

He thinks to himself I wonder if she's involved too?

These CIS hold a secret a meeting at 23:15 for 15 standard minuntes with the corporation contacts.
He glances again at his chrono on his HUD.

Alt's voice cuts out.  He increases the accelerator to it's max as he exits Mos Eisley into the open desert heading west towards the setting suns.

Alt makes a perception's check to see if they are being followed/tailed, other details, and if any threats are ahead within his field of view

As he cut through the horizon at top speed, his cloak trails in the wind, exposing his right thigh where his blaster pistol has been concealed.  Alt glances down at his DC-15s Blaster Pistol in its holster. The Dune Sea is west of Wayfar and Bestine, those sand people like to run amuk at night.  I better keep an extra watchful eye.
He readies an action prepared to draw it if needs be.

Torin pulls up on the other side. I'm sure he won't mind, as I am pretty sure he WILL mind a lightsaber through the chest.

A grin is stricken across Alt's face, but he helmet covers his playful gesture.  He briefly glances noticing also how he is now sandwiched between his new associates.

Jokingly Alt's voice is heard over the comm. Oh you wouldn't want to be board with all my tales. He stress the sylables.  But, if you insist...Alt's body language and voice are stressed and dramatic, getting theatrical It begins along time ago in a galaxy not so far, far away...Oh!actually its this one!... He says smartalically.

Alt continues, but whispers over the comm. Well, the truth is that a former associate, now in the mines, who had a friend, that knew a blood carver, whose sister was twice removed, hinted at all this.  It's all hush, hush you know.

Alt pauses for a few more seconds and then can't hold it any longer. He burst out laughing. I'm just kidding, y'all are so tense and edgy, except for the droid-he's probablly programed that way- that y'all aren't going to die from combat, but from stress.

But seriously... his tone solemn again.  I've done some jobs recently for them.  As he continues riding, the last bits of light from the setting of the suns, shine on his exposed pieces of armor, he glistens a golden brown, a magnificent sight.

So how about you Jayce? I'm sure most of us want to know how reliable your connection is for the job and everyone here. To see- Tion'ad hukaat'kama-whose watching your back.  How did you get so involved with the Hutts?

I was wondering that myself. I can see someone like me or Teela working with the Hutts, but Jayce? Actually, on the subject of work, I used to do some of the dirty work for the Hutts. People tend to do what their told when facing a Sith, less so if they think I'm a Jedi. Did you know that, before the Rule of Two, Sith were actually less feared than they are now? The whole "only two Sith at a time" makes us seems more powerful and mysterious and shit. In truth, there are plenty of Sith, they're just not recognized as such. Torin laughs. He thinks back to his days sitting in the cave, pouring his soul into the holocrons.

"I do what I need to survive on this desolate rock, Torin. You don't really think I'm a Jedi, do you? If I were, one of us wouldn't be alive right now. That is, if I actually believed you were a Sith..." Jayce replies somewhat sarcasticly to his Kel-dor companion.
