Star Wars: Republic and Empire (IC)

Like rancor saliva on a rock, Udo is content to simply stick to his pair of Jedi, as per his orders. Blaster at the ready, he takes Rosa's lead and keeps in stride with the pair of force sensitives.

Zenith shrugs at Istara, and trots after Rosa and her group. She figured it'd be good tactics to include a Jedi in each group, but she wasn't in charge in here. Her gait is an easy loping stride that carries her to the front of the group quickly, but she lets the point man take the lead.
 

The lift takes you to the bridge level of the frigate, and even here it is still eerily quiet. A few droids roam the hall, oblivious to the PCs.

However, the door to the main bridge does not open when you approach.
 

"Jedi are supposed to have some sort of 'danger-sense' when it comes to doing something?" Rosa asks. She turns to the closest Jedi. "See if it's safe to cut open that door."
 

Zenith gives Rosa a funny look, then shrugs.

"Can't hurt to try, I guess, but it's not quite as simple as that."

She moved a few steps forward towards the unresponsive door and closed her eyes. With a few carefully controlled breaths, Zenith cleared her mind of thoughts and emotions, making it a perfectly still pond. In the surface of that pond she envisioned herself and Istara cutting the door open...then she watched and waited for those tiny little ripples echoing back from the future through the Force.

While the Jedi, Zenith, is performing her tricks, Wes keeps a solid overwatch, prepared to respond to any attacks, in kind, that try to take advantage of the momentary pause.

(can't fail the UtF check, but a 27 is pretty good, so...)
You sense that some danger lies beyond the door, but not the greatest danger on this ship. Cutting the door open might increase your risk slightly, but not a lot.

Zenith slowly puts a hand out to touch her fingertips to the door, her face calm and her eyes closed. After a second she tilts her head, as if listening to some faint noise.

Then she opens her eyes and takes a step back from the door, squaring her shoulders.

"There's some risk to this, but not much more than coming aboard the ship in the first place. I feel that whatever's causing this...or whatever's the most dangerous on board...is somewhere else. But we might still get some answers here."

She looks at the other Jedi and lifts her lightsaber.

"Ready?"
 

"Proceed," Rosa orders as Zenith gets ready. She holds her blaster pistol towards the door, prepared to immediately begin shooting if hostilities erupt.
 

Storm lets the two human jedi do the cutting and takes a defensive pose himself, ingiting his saber. "Ready", he confirms.
