Star Wars: The Lost Boy

[Hrtofdrkns]

(for Caspar1812)

Alias Rets looked up as the republic transport approached. The blond woman quickly waved her security to surround her, wanting to show strength before the arriving jedi.

Her employers, Czerka Corporation, had put her in charge of Project: Cain on this remote Outer Rim outpost, just outside the Republic's jurisdiction. But the project had so far been a failure, and was being shut down. She was to attempt the sale of Project: Cain to the jedi if possible in order to recoup losses incurred. Or, failing that, give it away as a tax write-off.

The republic transport landed nearly 50m away from the czerka delegation, everyone could see who was on Bord because of the orders emblem on the sides of the ship. As the dust settled down the front hatch opened and a young pantorian woman stepped out, dressed in the basic brown cloak of the Jedi Order. Here eyes were Wandering around looking for the one in charge.

[Hrtofdrkns]

"Greetings Jedi." Alias said with stiff formality, clearly unused to any situation where she wasn't giving the orders. "I am Alias Rets, Czerka officer 230309 in charge of this project. I trust your journey was pleasant?"

[Caspar1812]

„it was…according to the circumstances…a pleasant journey“ Jenna said with a light smile. „Now please Tell me why im here, it’s unusual for the Senat to send out the Jedi if a company project somewhere in the outer rim fails, is it?“

[Hrtofdrkns]

Alias gestured for her to follow as dust blew in from the surrounding desert.

"First, some background. This planet was devastated by orbital bombardment during the Sith wars a thousand years ago. Recently Czerka discovered a set of old datacards relating to this planet, including the fact that it once held a Sith base. As I'm sure you know, true Dark Side artifacts go for a high price...once you are beyond the Republic and it's laws about selling such things..."

[Caspar1812]

„So czerka planed on finding and selling these artifacts correct?“ she said with a face that showed a mix of disapproval and disgust. „but it didn’t go as planes am i right?“ Jenna asked.

[Hrtofdrkns]

"It did not." Alias agreed as she led the Jedi to the center of the prefabricated housing units, towards an imposing grey building. Unlike the others, this was clearly designed to hold something dangerous.

"We found a coffin-like device, still active after all these years. Inside, as incredible as it may seem, was a living specimen. We believe it to be an actual Sith."

[Caspar1812]

„Sith?…“ Jenna asked while pulling up one eyebrow, „the Sith disappeared hundreds of years ago, she said. But still she could feel a presence…
„So now you want me to confirm or deny your sith theory?“ she asked „then show me what you have found“

[Hrtofdrkns]

Alias pulled a small slot in the door aside. "Take a look. Then we can discuss a price for you to buy it. If not, I know a Hutt who pays well for 'interesting' dishes."

Inside the light was dim, but a figure could be made out huddled in the darkness. It was naked, and obviously male and non-human. And quite young by the looks of it.

[Caspar1812]

„You woke him up??“ Jenna said rather annoyed. „Fine…this makes the things more complicated. Does he Speak?“ she asked
