"I don't suppose you have anything remotely resembling a drink on board, do you?"She continues, regardless of the answer. "I found out about Dofina as she was seeking refuge with one of my contacts in the Separatist underground there. As I went to go and meet with her, to hopefully finalize some plans I had, I received a message that there was a bounty hunter looking for the both of you. As I neared where she was, I knew that if I were seen with her, not only would this hunter be able to track Dofina through me, but also any hope of security that we had would be lost. I couldn't risk it.""Well, I didn't know it was you at first. As I was 'borrowing' information from their database, I heard a general comm call for all available technicians to report to the maintenance area to repair Skywalker's droid. Though, they didn't call it Skywalker's EFX-7 though. They said 'Lord Vader'. I didn't know what they meant, but if I stuck around where I was any longer, I would have been compromised. As luck would have it, I knew Arakyds better than those other techs did. I knew of no other Dark Eye models operating in the area, so I presumed it must have been you. Turns out I was right.""If I was wrong however, I didn't want to give anything away, that's why when I left, I gave you the wink and nod. A typical DRK would think nothing of it, but you would have been able to identify the gesture with female humans. I was hoping you would piece it together.""I only know Skywalker through the holovids. He's very popular you know. Jedi Hero and all that, though what it means now that the Order has been declared illegal is beyond me. What is apparent is that somehow he has escaped the purge and this new Empire has put him to work. That can't be good for anyone involved. Who knows how many others Palpatine has brought to his side?"While you are listening to Four, MSR-X reports that the woman is indeed human, however she has an odd DNA structure unlike any it has seen before. It is apparent that she has been implanted with a foreign chain of nucleotides that are similar in structure as those in some of the more well known shapeshifting races. Unfortunately, her body is rejecting these genes and has to constantly be monitored for deterioration and replacement. It is uncertain if her body will ever strike a balance with the foreign cells. "The repair droids should have been able to fix the reactor. I left before I could get a final result. I had more important things to worry about at the time. If they didn't get it done, then I know that the Hutts are definately not happy about it.""You're right of course. The Empire would have to mount a serious effort to find us. That being said though, they seem to have eyes and ears everywhere, so we can't even trust that."She looks at you quizzically when you ask about the code key for her journals. "I suppose it's too late to say no?" She extends the fingers of her left hand. "Well, I suppose the rest of my life will be an open book for everyone then. Let me see one and I'll put it in for you. It requires my thumbprint."She unlocks them and hands them back. "Try to skim over the personal stuff, would you?"As Derek reads, he sends X the information that he finds and finds it too tempting to not read her personal entries, his quest for humanizing overriding other parameters. Inside most of the entries, you find her battle with the debilitating experiment on her body: physical changes, external and internal, emotional breakdowns, that sort of thing. However, in some of the entries, you find a series of access codes and coordinates for places that seem to span the galaxy. If what you are reading appears to be correct, these are Four's safe houses. On top of that, what little she entered of her recent experiences seems to indicate that she is indeed telling the truth. She even goes so far as to attempt to make corollaries between the Emperor, Skywalker, Palpatine, Lord Vader, Sidious, Dooku, Nute Gunray, Asajj Ventress, Kellon, Torrba and a few other lesser known names. Most of them seem to be mere speculation however. While you peruse the information, Four stares quietly, awaiting the next question.</blockquote>
