@Malon, @Breeso
Khivas had spent the entire night chasing down the back alley scum (or rather the excuse that passed as back alley scum on Naboo. Damn Nobles) to find out what he could about the terrorist and his little mad dog bombing on the Rebel Forces stationed and training on Naboo, meanwhile his newest student and official Padawan, Clara Firestorm, was self teaching herself the fine powers of Force Leap and Speed.
Sadly, beating up thugs and scumbag wannabe thugs proved mostly fruitless, as they all had legitimately no idea how the hell somebody could manage to get the right type of explosives to get past the scanners of the Rebellion and then blow them up in such a way, nor could a single one of them explain how the hell somebody had so many enhancements to their body and not be Force sensitive. However, as each and every single one couldn't give Khivas an answer to his question, they each helped a little in helping him to get closer to figuring it out himself.
The fact that nobody knew who this guy was spoke volumes, as it showed that this person was more than likely working alone to pull all of this off, a feat elevating them even higher in Khivas' priority list as what he had done and will no doubt continue to do was no small feat. Ever since the bombing, not a single ship had left nor entered Naboo airspace undetected, a wise move by the local commanders, one Khivas was thankful for as it helped to remove the possibility of this being an Imperial hit and run, as well as ensure that the person hadn't left yet. On the other hand, this also drove home the point that this madman had to be caught, because he still was indeed very much on Naboo and very capable of striking again.
Further insight on this matter told Khivas that this person might actually be using the Force after all, if only for the fact that as he moved about the main cities and even during meditation, Khivas could not for the life of him sense any lifesigns that proved to be of hostile origin towards the Rebellion or the Jedi. Normally a droid could be capable of that, but when Khivas first encountered this opponent, they emanated emotion, something droids do not and are incapable of emitting, meaning whoever did this was of mortal flesh, but despite this their feats were far reaching and not of mortal nature, meaning it was most likely humanoid with enhancements.
Yet here he was, searching yet again with the Force, this time in a full state of meditation, full power devoted entirely to finding this man, and he couldn't find a damn thing.
Thinking back to the tales Master Ayso used to tell him, and the lessons that Rakkir gave him during his time in hidden exile, Khivas remembered the ability to hide ones' self in the Force, and not simply camouflaging the body to remain hidden, but truly disappearing from even a skilled Force User. Khivas himself was capable of this skill, but possessed little talent for it, but he knew of it, and it was this insight that lead him to believe that he may be chasing after somebody with the Force, somebody that was damn good at hiding, a prospect that worried him.
"Pardon me, Master Jedi." A voice rang out, their knuckles rapping on the door to the empty room Khivas sat in, disrupting his meditation. "Hm? What is it?" The Knight replied. "Sorry sir, but we have allowed a single ship through to land here in Selton. They say another Jedi arrives with it, and that you'll know him when you see him, that you sent for him?"
"Bren..." Khivas thought to himself, happy that his message got through to the council or whoever was in charge of this sort of thing these days. "Yes, I sent for him. Take me to the landing pad, I'll retrieve him." Khivas said, thinking to himself that he had hoped to receive a more seasoned Jedi to help him and Clara, but alas, this would have to do, and in light of things, Khivas did teach this kid a few tricks, so he shouldn't slow them down too much while he and Clara did their investigation.
In fact, Bren might actually be able to help, big time no less. The kid had a knack for finding things that shouldn't be found and getting in over his head, after all he found his way to a planet that shouldn't have had a single scent of Jedi about it, yet he had by the sheer will of the Force found his way right to Khivas' feet. "Welp, couldn't hurt to test the waters with him now." The Knight thought to himself, as he made it to the landing pad and awaited the door to open, feeling Bren's presence from behind the gateway, ready to greet each other after such time apart.
"Clara," Khivas said, reaching out to his pupil through the Force, "Hate to call you like this, but head to the spaceport here in Selton, there's someone you should meet. And great job on learning those techniques I told you about. I promise we'll go over them properly when this rolls over."
