The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Rebels of Ralltiir.

[Kelko]

Not surprising anyone, Kelko revs the repulsorvan's engine as high as he can to follow the tractor. "Heads up, everyone. We've got stormies ahead." His intent is to blow by the stormtroopers and out the gate if he can.

 

[Arani Korden]

"Heads up, everyone. We've got stormies ahead."

"Terrific."

Arani braces herself with one hand, and pulls out her blaster with the other.

 

[Dorn Tavers]

Rorworr pats Dorn on the shoulder, recognising his uncertainty.

"Don't worry, she's fine. We've all kept an eye out for her." He says quietly. "Not that the last few years have been easy. But I'm willing to guess you already know that..."

Dorn throws a small smile of appreciation Rorworr's way as he holds on during Kelko's mad dash. The Jedi is somewhat relieved to discover that the wookie doesn't seem to be thinking about pulling his arms out of his sockets for his sudden disappearing act all those years ago. Considering how protective of Arani Rory had always been, Dorn had considered the loss of his arms a distinct possibility should he ever run into his old friends again.

"Thanks, Rory. The last few years have been tough all over, but I figured she'd be alright with you and Vor'en around. I just wish..."

Dorn is interrupted by Kelko's sudden announcement of stormtroopers up ahead. Dorn shakes his head and unholsters his blaster again.

"Never mind. So much for making a quiet exit from the scene of the crime..."

 

[Pbartender]

The stormtroopers scatter and the guard leaps into the guard shack and the repulsorvan shoots by. Kelko thread the needle, sliding the van into the space between the gate and the last cargo container, but not without scraping a bit of paint off the fender in a shower of sparks. As he flies by, he can hear the guard shout out, "Hey! Wait! You're not..."

In moments Kelko has woven through a bewildering number of sidestreets and back alleys, until he's certain that pursuit is futile.

 

[Set Harth]

Set sticks his head out the window to see is they have shook off pursuit. "Clear for now. Let find some where to ditch this truck."

Set's mind whirls after the excitement of the previous few minutes, and it takes a few moments for him to calm down. Deel's proposition better be worth this, he thinks.
Set looks around at his old companions. Never thought I would see these chumps again, in fact a would have prefered not too. Set rolls his eyes as Arani and Dorn makes eyes at each other. Sheesh twenty years and they still act like teenagers. Waving his hand in front of his face, Set wonders why wookiees smell worse with age.

"So where's this bar we're suppose to meet Deel at?"

 

[Arani Korden]

"So where's this bar we're suppose to meet Deel at?"

"Deel's message only said it was near the spaceport. I suggest we ditch the truck and look for a local directory." ooc: Phonebooks - in SPACE!!!!!

 

[Pbartender]

"Deel's message only said it was near the spaceport. I suggest we ditch the truck and look for a local directory." ooc: Phonebooks - in SPACE!!!!!

The local area seem to be a warehouse district, but moving along a short distance to a major thouroughfare, Arani finds an information kiosk for tourists. It seems to be little used and in mild disrepair, probably due to the sudden decrease in tourism since the Imperial interdiction.

A quick search of the kiosk's information banks reveals that the Labyrinthine Libation is a local hot spot as far as night clubs go, and it be found not more than a kilometer and a half away... It is located just outside the main passenger entrance of the starport.

 

[Arani Korden]

Arani grins.

"I've got an address. Right by the spaceport, so we'll be returning to the scene of the crime."

She turns to Rorworr. "Rory, they'll probably be looking for a Wookiee. I've got an idea for a cover story, but you're not going to like it."

 

[Rorworr]

Rorworr groans despairingly at Arani's comment.

"That's not the first time you've said that..." He says, sounding slightly apprehensive. "Let me make this quite clear, I am never wearing a dress again, no matter how good the reason. So, let's hear it. What's the plan?"

 

[Arani Korden]

"Okay. Even without the bowcaster sighting, a free Wookiee wandering around in an area with this much Imperial presence is going to attract attention. So I was thinking, well. . . what if you weren't a free Wookiee?"

Arani frowns.

"Look, I don't like the idea of you pretending to be a slave. At all. And if you don't want to do it, we can find another way. It's probably the easiset plan, but that doesn't make it the best one."
