"The specimen used a red lightsaber to kill one of my guards, and choked the other to death just by holding it's hand out." Alias retorted. "If that isn't a Sith what would you call it?" She motioned to a pair of guards. "Come, I'll show you to it's cell. Then we can discuss how much your order is willing to pay for it."

Millie was getting more and more anxious. "M-Master, must we go?! She asked, panicked.
Viras nodded. "Well, in any case, I should be extremely curious. But know this, scientist. We Jedi are NOT slave traders." He told her, offended at the mere notion of selling anyone off.

"This creature is not a Republic citizen, it has no rights." Alias said calmly. Thy passed through a heavy duty security door Alias had to use a keycard to open. Inside were more guards in front of a locked cell door, with a tiny slot on the bottom for a food dish to enter and be withdrawn.

Alias pulled a remote from her pocket and pressed a button on it. Instantly the door shimmered, becoming transparent. Beyond it could be seen a figure laying on it's side. It's hands were tightly locked in handcuffs and securely bonded on a chain around it's waist and closed with a padlock. Around it's legs were a set of leg irons, a short chain bonding it's ankles, so it could make only little steps; the leg irons were linked with another chain to it's waist chain. Last, another big cuff around it's neck with a chain attached to the wall of the cell. Aside from the chains and a dog-like muzzle the creature was nude and obviously male, with cat-like features including ears and a tail.

But that wasn't the most surprising part. What was surprising was his age. He looked to be a young teenager, no older than Millie.

**MediaMillie** · February 23rd, 2023, 12:45 PM

Millie couldn't believe her eyes. "He's just... A boy. He's only my age!" She said in surprise. THIS was the great evil all the legends talked about? She released Gavin's hand to look at him.

Viras approached him, albeit keeping his distance, and asked "What is your name. Please tell us. We mean you no harm, my boy." The last thing he wanted was for the wretched, chained boy to feel even more attacked by those scientists. Scientists... They were no better than pirates!, Viras thought to himself.

**Hrtofdrkns** · February 24th, 2023, 12:22 PM

The boy opened his eyes and slowly stood.

"RAAWWRR!"

He he threw his entire weight into trying to break the chains, eyes wide and feral as he jumped and snarled at the people before him.

"And there you have it." Alias sighed as she pressed another button on the remote to once again make the door opaque. "It doesn't speak. All it does is snarl and roar and hiss and claw and bite. We're tried interrogating it and gotten nowhere. I'm done with this and just want it gone."

**MediaMillie** · February 24th, 2023, 12:25 PM

"It?" Viras interjected. "You have a sentient being in chains here, and you refer to him as "it"?! He isn't a beast, he's just a boy! You have no right to hold him here like this."

(Sooo any way of solving this? Perhaps Master Gavin's wisdom can do us well here)

**Hrtofdrkns** · February 24th, 2023, 12:36 PM

Alias scoffed at that. "'IT' is a monster."

"Perhaps we could get close to the boy?" Gavin suggested. "He can't break those chains, we should be in no danger. At the very least we can become familiar with him, make things easier when we remove him to our ship?"

The Czerka officer shrugged. "Very well. Here's the key. But make it quick. If you don't want to buy it, I know a Hutt who pays well for 'exotic dishes'.

**MediaMillie** · February 24th, 2023, 02:11 PM

Viras tried his best to control his temper at that repulsive remark; he knew well how that race of despicable sleezeballs treated his race... "Thank you." He said curtly, taking the key. "Alright, let's go in with him.
When they entered, the boy was clearly still on edge, so Viras took the initiative. "How do you do, I am Master Viras, and this is Master Gavin and his Padawan Millie. We would like to talk to you, if you could be so kind." He told him in a calm demeanor, wanting to ease his nerves.

**Hrtofdrkns** · February 26th, 2023, 12:48 AM

The boy snarled and fought his chains like an animal, his claws extended in a way that showed he clearly still felt threatened. Up close the Jedi could see numerous bruises and welts on his naked body, some of which clearly showed the pattern of fists and boots.

"He's feral." Gavin whispered. "What have they done to him?"

**MediaMillie** · February 26th, 2023, 09:57 AM

"These damn Czerka employees..." Viras growled under his breath. "They use the poor boy as a boxing bag." He then contemplated the situation; the boy had force powers, and he would be much better treated in the temple. "Suppose we take him with us?" Viras proposed, "In the temple he would at least receive much more humane treatment, and he can hone his force powers for the good of the republic."
Millie thought to herself "IS HE KIDDING?! The boy is far gone!!" But she was too self-conscious to speak up at that time. What Master Viras had in oratory, she severely lacked...
