Holt nodded at the boy's response.
[glow=white,2,300]"Good, that's settled. We must be leaving, then. Arili, my actions last night will soon be discovered, and it would be best if we were not here when that happens. I would guess that it woud happen somewhere in the next hour, but it may happen sooner. It is possible they already know, and are coming for us as we speak. We leave now. There's no time to debate this."[/glow]
The Knight said, grabbing his saber and his datapad and leaving their quarters. He did not expect them to be right behind him, they had to prepare, but somebody had to make sure they got off this rock.

Arili was already at the door, waiting for them initially. She dodged the eager Nelvanian as he flew by in a whoosh of dark blue. She looked over at Dak.
I'm going, so if there is anything out of the room you need, take it now.
She said, heading after Holt.

Dak smiled at the female Twi'lek as she made her last statement inside of the Apartment.
Even after all that you insist I take something so I may keep this place in mind...I guess that makes Jedi kindhearted people then. Just like I had assumed...but nevertheless I will need nothing more than the clothes I am wearing currently to follow you.
With that said he moved to a position that was in between Holt and Ms. Annunaki seeing that was the best way to travel because Dak knew he was the biggest liability in the temporary group. Staying in the middle would allow Ms. Annunaki to watch the rear and Holt the front. Dak would also keep his eyes peeled, but would probably only be useful for shouting "Watch Out!!".
(once again I will be at Arili's side until next rp)

They got to the hangar with relative ease. Arili headed for the cockpit, and got in. It was much more comfortable than the old beaten up fighter they had flown to get there. And newer, that was for sure. She surveyed the instruments, and saw a fairly good sensor system, a sensor cloak, autotargeting system, and an autopilot. All mixed in with the usual controls one sees in the cocpit of a heavy fighter/light bomber.
Arili started the startup sequence, but it was from dead cold, so it was going to take a good 10 minutes to get the engines warmed up to operating temperatures.
She got out, the fighter taking care of the rest of the startup sequence , and looked over the edge of the hangar bay. She could see Laric talking to...what looked to be security personel.
Holt, we got company. Dak, get in the ship and stay there.
((OOC: I DID NOT SET THAT UP))
She said, as they pushed Laric out of the way and headed into the inside of the building.

(Who did?)
Holt sensed it long before Arili had told him. Her saying it only confirmed his suspiscions. He quickly stepped in front of Dak, before lifting him with a single arm, and tossing the boy into the passenger hold of the ship, before shutting the door with a wave of his palm. With that, the Knight stepped forward and towards Arili. He looked out over the men nearing them.
[glow=white,2,300]"Doesn't look too bad. Think you ought to deal with them? You know, use some of that famous Jedi charm?"[/glow]

((OOC: Episode 1, where Jinn was like "stay in that ship, promise me you won't move" , thats what I was saying that I didn't set up. Not the doods. They were all me))
Arili shook her head and took out her saber, not bothering to activate it until they got closer.
I didn't want to have all the fun, you know, I think you might need a little practice.
She said, with a grin. The Guards wouldn't be a problem for a padiwan even, but Arili knew that by killing all of them would send more forces their way. They would probably have checked in with HQ before going into the Building, so if they didn't come out after 10 minutes, they would know something was up. The guards drew nearer, and Arili looked over the edge, again for one last time, only to see what looked to be two hooded figures walking into the building. She sensed only darkness surrounding the pair, and not just darkness, but the dark side of the force. She didn't bother telling Holt, she knew he would know just as well as she did.
The guards ran in, and put their guns up.
FREEZE!
They yelled at the pair. Arili looked back at Holt with a wink, and walked, a little more slowly, up to what looked to be the commander. She pushed his weapon down and put her arms around his shoulders, and he looked at her and relaxed for a split second. That was all the time it took for Arili to spin him around and have him in a rather painful joint lock.
Allright, this is how its going to work. Either you put down your weapons, and get on the ground face down, or your commander here looses his head.
She said, nodding towards the saber she held deactivated to his neck in her free hand.
((OOC: The cloaked figures are NPC Dark Jedi, funded by the Empire. Just to make things a little more interesting. ))

As Dak regains his composure he slowly pops his head out of the seat. Peering through the window he can see Ms. Annunaki and Holt squaring off against some armed people. Upon further inspection he realizes that they are fighting Imperial troops.
That does indeed prove that they are against the Empire and the so called peace that it brings.
Dak watched as Ms. Annunaki used a grapple maneuver to capture the apparent leader of the troops. Dak managed to catch Ms. Annunaki glance off into the distance made Dak look in that direction. Suddenly the young boy was pierced by a throbbing headache. Inching his eyes open Dak laid eyes upon two hooded figures and the strange vibe he was recieving from them. Dak froze instantly when he somehow felt their eyes gaze upon the ship...upon Dak. It wasn't necessarily that he was discovered, but Dak could feel the immense pressure that they walked with and the young boy felt his breathe leave him.
*panting* I-is that the d-dark side?
It was more of a question to himself so he could better identify this feeling. It was a feeling of sheer power being pushed down on top of him. Pushed in such a way that it took everything away from Dak leaving the boy barely conscious of the happenings in the conflict. The immense pressure eventually forced Dak to collapse inside the passenger seat, his face pressed against the window.
(I wonder if I over played the effect of the dark side on him...even if he is only a kid.)

(Hey, just for fun, since the Empire doesn't use dark Jedi, let's make them executors!)
Holt chose not to use his lightsaber. In fact, he had tossed it into the ship along with Dak. He had survived on Kashyyyk for five years without a lightsaber, he didn't need one to deal with these people. While Arili spent her time threatening the imperials, Holt proceeded to back away from the group, moving back past the ship. He looked to the left, to where the hangar door lay, and then to the right, where the group stood, already encircling Arili.
Once he had put some distance between himself and his partner, he narrowed his eyes.
[glow=white,2,300]"Arili, stop kidding around, and let the man go. We don't want any trouble. Just back away now, Arili. Sorry, gentlemen, but she's a bit off today. Now why don't we just back this up and we can handle this whole misunderstanding..."[/glow]
The Knight said, being sure to hide his Force-Sensitivity via the methods of Que-tay he had been forced to master on Kashyyyk. Already, however, he was focusing on the various walls and floors of the cieling, as the two hooded figures placed themselves on opposite sides of Arili.
(just play along...)

((OOC: I couldn't spell it, and I figured you'd get the idea. I couldn't remember what they were called.))
Arili sensed Holt had some sort of a plan, and obliged. She let him go and in a flash the guards were on her and she was on her front on the ground getting cuffed. She shook her head, Holt had better have a plan. She thought to herself.
She could also sense the hooded figures in the room, and had no idea who or what they were, just that they were with the dark side and therefore hostile.
She looked over at Holt, then back to the hooded figure, then back to Holt.

Holt watched Arili's apprehension admonishingly as he walked towards the men and the hooded figures, his Force-sensitivity completely invisibe at this point.
[glow=white,2,300]"Now, Arili, I warned you about this. I'm so sorry about this, sirs, I'm afriad she isn't completely right in the head. In case you haven't noticed..."[/glow] Holt was now facing the group's apparent leader, as Arili was being taken away from the group and to the exit by the men.
[glow=white,2,300]"We're not exactly from around here. You see, she's from Dantooine, farmer's daughter, and she has this disorder, so I decided to help her out by bringing her here to see a specialist..."[/glow]
Arili was now as far from the group as the ship was. Holt stood, surrounded by these people.
[glow=white,2,300]"See, I'm a friend of the family and..."[/glow]
With that, the hangar level above them collapsed, causing all manner of heavy debris, along with a rather bulky friehgter, to fall onto them. The two hooded figures moved to react, before the floor around the group began to shake, quickly falling apart beneath them as Holt lunged backwards through the group to a safe distance. The Knight had used a special technique he had developed, whereupon he was able to, through The Force, of course, remove from durasteel it's tendancy to be strong and sturdy, resulting in a far weaker compound, which, with all the weight placed on it, would inevitably result in the event that did, whereupon the group of men and the two hooded figures fell through the floor, dropping down into the floor beneath under the weight of the frieghter above.
Seeing this, the two men who were, before being distracted, bringing Arili off the premesis, looked around Arili to one another, before turning and fleeing the hangar.
Holt stood, somewhat drained, and looked to Arili.
[glow=white,2,300]"Well? Come on. Somebody's got to fly us out of here. And we don't have much time for you to do it."[/glow]
He said, already halfway back to the ship.

((OOC: I lol'd That was awesome))
Arili closed her eyes and used the force to pop the cuffs open, and pull her saber back to her. She walked around the new holes and caught up to Holt at the ship.
She looked at Holt as if she was going to say something, but instead shook her head and walked up to the cockpit.
The ship was already spooled up and ready to go.
Hold on kids, this ride may be a bit bumpy.
She said, as the ship took off. Arili goosed the engines, and the sleek black fighter streaked up, away from the city. Before she cleared the lower atmosphere, there were already scanner alerts going off. But she started to realize something, Tarin had build the fighter for speed , not maneuverability. It simply outran the fighters that were chasing the ship. That and nobody could get a lock on it, which explained its peculiar shape.
The ship was just clearing the upper atmosphere , and Arili locking the nav computer when she saw a gigantic flash, followed by a rather large shock wave. She turned the fighter to the indicated direction, and pressed the engage button, seconds before the shock wave engulfed the fighter as it had a number of other ships and the main Empire shipyard for the sector.
