ZZ-4A4's own photoreceptor whirred as what looked to be an old medical droid stooped into his field of vision. The even older astrogator droid felt the digital equivalent of relief run through his circuits; this type of mechanical could almost always be relied on to be helpful.
"Greetings, friend It0." Zeezee replied."I am ZZ-4A4, ZZ-series astrogator droid. My friends call me Zeezee."
The droid gestured with his manipulator arm, still clutching the new motivator Trini's organic friend had discovered. He waved toward the brilliantly polished silver starfighter It0 had seen earlier.
"I must get to that ship, the Silver Bolide!" The little droid responded to It0's question. "Before Trini and that Sector Ranger catch up. They must not be allowed to stop me, lives could be at stake, droid and organic!"
Zeezee's head turret swiveled, and his photoreceptor focused on an ascending turbolift, its doors opening to reveal two figures who were very familiar.
"Maker, here they come! Please hurry!"

Trini and Corran emerged from the turbolift into Lina Soh Memorial Spaceport's mid-level terminal, immediately having to fight a path through the milling crowd. At the Sector Ranger's question, Trini answered.
"When I was doing maintenance on the Silver Bolide awhile back, I found what looks like an antique tracking device in one of the landing gear wells. I don't know how long it's been there, but it looks ancient; frozen in place with enough carbon buildup that I'd probably have to rent a beam drill to get it off. Luckily, it's really obsolete, so I doubt anyone who even knew about it would be able to use it to track me."
She turned back to Corran with a grin.
"That is, unless they had a minor in Republic-era communication formats, which I just happen to! I can activate the beacon by remote, and-"
Trini's ear perked at a familiar electronic voice, turning and calling out.
"Zeezee?! Zeezee hold on, we're coming!!"
