[Location: Nar Shaddaa]

Recently promoted to the Jedi Council, Dashiell Weulf had been the first to volunteer for the infiltration mission on Nar Shaddaa. Anything to get away from his new-found responsibilities on the political side of the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic. Dashiell had never been one for sitting around and deliberating, for he was a man of action, which the Jedi seemed to be lacking these days.

Thankfully the rest of the Council agreed that Jedi Master Weulf was the perfect man for the job, or at least, the most capable they had at their disposal. He was no fool, however, and requested another member of the Council be sent with him. Security in numbers. The Republic military brass had also taken it upon themselves to send one of their own. Dashiell was not sure whether this was due to the Galactic Republic's increasing paranoia, or their general lack of faith since the attack on the Jedi temple at Coruscant. Abele Hallen was her name. A Republic Major, ground forces specialist. He hoped she was worth her salt.

Fitting that this moon's nickname is 'Little Coruscant', thought Dashiell Weulf.

Getting in-system was the easy part. He was not traveling as a Jedi, so buying transport aboard one of the public transit ships was a cinch. Dashiell's cover name was Earil Mars. He and the two others accompanying him on the mission were waiting for the transport vessel to land in the common docking area just off the main strip of Nar Shaddaa's city-port. Their destination was not all that far.

"Get your things together, we're almost there," said Dashiell, looking out the viewport of their compartment. The three of them had been lucky enough to score their own passenger compartment, so as not to be disturbed by any of the other transportees.

Weulf was wearing a nondescript civilian garb, tan, with a hood (down), and a bag slung over his shoulder. His long-handle lightsaber was hidden well, and would not be found even if he was searched thoroughly by the port authority. Infiltration and espionage were things he knew well, having had to blend in or even purposefully stand out in order to actually fit the role he needed to to succeed on many occasions. Dashiell was a natural. Having the Force sure as kriffing hell did not hurt either, but for now he was keeping his presence dampened.

Staying quiet was what you did around Jedi, they liked it when you waited for their word to act. They were smarter than the Major could ever be and it was always better if she spoke only when spoken to. She dressed like a spacer, but underneath the thick full-body clothes was a body glove. She had her bag of things, a very nice compact slugthrower- modified for silence- was hidden in pieces as a camera. Her service pistol and knife were in their places under her civilian clothes, easily hidden.

She'd brought a few hundred credits to cover anything they'd need to buy in order to gain entrance to the facilities. As the soldier she packed military grade explosives with her, good stuff; they would be able to rip through anything that needed to be absolutely kriffed. She was going to make sure the shields wouldn't be repaired in a short time.

She slung her rucksack over her shoulder and pulled the bottom of her Tagelmust to cover the rest of her face. Aside from her eyes, she was indistinguishable from anyone else that would be on the streets, a completely unremarkable person.

Almost as soon as Ajoc had been promoted to the rank of Jedi Knight, Ajoc was selected by the Council to participate in a crucial mission. To Infiltrate the planet of Nar Shadaa. At first he was unsure if he was truly ready for something like this but Ajoc had to be ready. The Galactic Republic was at war and they needed all the helpings hands they could find. Ajoc had to dispose of his usual Jedi robes and put on the look of a civilian. With his regular civilian outfit that was gray in color all around with gold trimmings that have been fading for quite some time he made a couple modifications. The first was a loose scarf that he wore around his neck. The second was a messenger bag that hung loose from his utility belt. His lightsaber was hidden well on the inside of his left upper arm up his sleeve. It may take him a moment to take it out for use if needed but it was a solid hiding place for his weapon.

Ajoc noted Dashiell's comment on how they were coming close to their destination. He stood up and waited near the door for when the time came. They had to move on with their mission at a good pace and Ajoc wanted to get moving probably faster than the rest. Maybe he was restless. Or he just wanted it to be over. Ajoc quickly calmed himself by reciting the Jedi code to himself. This time vocally but so quiet it was nothing more than a whisper instead of reciting it inside his mind like he did along the trip. The time was almost nigh for them to land on the docking area and Ajoc was now focused on the mission. He had to. For his tribe that traveled in the far reaches of space. He promised himself nothing would stop him from one day returning to see them once again.

"Just breathe, Jedi." She could see the young man was nervous, he probably could use a word of help more than anything. He was also the youngest of the group, which was probably a bit intimidating to the young Jedi.

"I'm trying major. It is easier for someone as experienced as yourself. But I do have faith that the Force is with us in our endeavors."

Ajoc knew he sounded like a die hard Jedi when he spoke but that was something he was proud of. After training under the Jedi he had put away his tribes values and ways to embrace the Jedi's. But the more he thought about the things he had to give up, Ajoc remembered once of the worst things he gave up during his training. He gave up the fight back on Coruscant. Instead of staying and defying the master's wishes and fighting against the Dark Jedi, Ajoc fled with the other padawans while Knights fell against the Crusaders. But the Jedi still thrived. Soon they would expand. It was almost as if the attack the Dark Jedi had performed caused more to rally to the Jedi.

This might be harder than I thought. Dashiell did not know Ajoc Laynier all that well. In truth, before being asked to serve on the Jedi Council as a Master of the Order, Dash was not all that good at remembering the names of his fellows. Sure, there was Enzo, Adrian, Ilyena, and Colm the Grandmaster, but besides a few others, Dashiell was nothing more than acquaintances with most of the Order. Probably a bad thing, now that I think about it. I only ever paid attention to the ladies. And pay attention he did. The first time he met Master Ilyena Rada... On second thought, I had better not get into that.

"Keep your wits about you, we can't afford any mistakes on this one. Just follow my lead and you'll do fine. Have faith, young one." As he finished speaking, the compartment doors slid open.

"We have now arrived at docking station A12, Nar Shaddaa. Please gather your belongings and exit the shuttle as soon as possible. Have a pleasant day."

Dashiell tightened his grip on his shoulder bag, gave Abele and Ajoc a quick smile and a wink and headed out the door. Other passengers had already begun departing as well, and if the Jedi Knight and Major did not follow quickly there was a chance they would lose him in the crowd.

As he stepped out into the bright light that was Nar Shaddaa's sprawling port city, Dashiell could not help but be overwhelmed by the sheer number of people walking about. For such a crime-infested moon, Nar Shaddaa had quite the population. 'Little Coruscant' it is, he thought.

Abele followed the Master Jedi from a few yards behind, she would have no problem keeping on his trail. In the first minute walking she was forced to swat away at least three pickpockets from her sack. She figured that if it kept up she'd begin stabbing them and making them regret their sticky fingers.

Siris stepped off the Republic shuttle, his weapons tightly slung around his body. A man waved to Siris as he approched the exit to the docking bay. The man was wearing a Republic uniform that was hidden under a robe, he spoke with a clear, emtionlesss tone, "Your contact is just beyond this point." The man pointed to a highlighted building on a 3D map. Siris folded his arms, "What's the job, comerade?" The man opened a hologram which showed the past highlighted building. "A team is inflitrating this building. Your job is to meet with them on the south side of the building and cover them as they make their exit." The map showed that the target building was atleast a three mile walk. Siris unfolded his arms and readied his rifle, checking his ammo and hammer conduction. He unslung his rifle and spoke to himself as he headed toward the target building getting ready for the long walk ahead, "They'll probally be getting ready to leave by the time I get there. But I still
don't get it, good pay just to babysit? Either they're not telling me everything or these comerades and important persons."

Have faith indeed. Ajoc had more than he needed in terms of faith. After all he was on a mission with one of the Jedi Councilors! He might even learn a thing or two if he paid attention. Stepping out of the ship, Ajoc nearly fell over from the immense size of Nar Shadaa. It was still nothing like Coruscant but he had nearly forgotten everything about it since the attack. When Ajoc finally snapped back to reality his partners were already a ways ahead of him. But Ajoc quickly caught up with them. but decided to keep himself a couple feet back from the major. He noticed the the pickpockets trying to get at the major and made sure to give them a certain look for them not to try and come his way.

As Ajoc noted his surroundings he could feel the astonishing strength of the Force on this planet. It was almost like an ocean. One could be swept away in the in the feeling if not too careful. But Ajoc had no time to be thinking of such things. Putting on a small smile, Ajoc continued to follow at a distance from behind the Major.

ADMIN RULING: Sorry to cut this off, but unfortunately a few kinks in the road necessitate the closing of this thread. But let not your heart be troubled! The main event will still take place as planned in the next day or so, and a very similar operation will take place as part of that once it's under way. Be sure to talk to your faction leader if you still want to participate in that!
