The way he looked at her- Anna was sure she would never get use to people looking at her like that, and she hated it. She turned her face away from him as he drew closer, nodding slightly at his words. He made a little joke about Sinina, but it did not make Anna smile. She never liked bringing the demon into reality. It always left her empty inside- wanting for more, because as much as she hated to admit it, Zeal did effect her- and right now it wasn't happy.
She followed the Zabrak as he carried the unconscious man out of the building- without a word, even as he thanked her. She didn't feel like speaking- in fact, she wished she were back in bed, asleep- maybe even back in the Array. At least she wasn't aware of things...not really, not like today.

Alora blinked for a split second. Her mind raced faster than it had in a while. Something called her back to the greater galaxy, and she had assumed that something was Adieumus Matango. She had entered into the group, coming rather late to the party. She wasn't even sure who had actually formed the group in the first place- or if it had just formed on its own. But if there was one thing Raven Alora knew how to do- it was to motivate, even if she had no idea what they were doing in the first place. She could make up stuff that was totally believable and some how, it all worked out. But right now- she had to be honest.
I didn't assembly this team Zalor. And who did? How could she keep his attention- to keep him from walking away from this table back to his job at the Inn. .... The Force did. We don't answer to the Jedi order- at least, not at the moment. Our team consists of several people versed in the Jedi, sith and even Dathomere arts. You haven't met Anna yet- but she's a Seer, and is very good at interpreting the force. Well that actually sounded better out loud than in her head for once.
If the First Order has its way, the galaxy as a whole will be knocked out of balance again. This evil is different- it is organized. Perhaps a little ...disarray might be an advantage. As far as out end game- I'll be honest. I don't know that yet, but what fun would knowing the ending be?
She wasn't sure if she'd convinced him, but she sure tried her hardest. The point is- I've seen people on this crew learn who they really are. Perhaps you will re-discover yourself too. Still want to come along?

Farris could tell there would be no arguing with her. He gave the woman a very displeased look. She didn't understand, she couldn't. He supposed he could figure a way to loose her in some such travel- in a safe place obviously. He sighed. That wouldn't work. He wouldn't abandon her- he couldn't. Closing his eyes, he remained quiet for a few minutes in contemplation.
Fine. But I'm not happy with it- at least- not yet.
He finished the water jug and sighed in contentment. He'd finally reached a preferred state again.
After you're finished eating- there's a few errands I need to run while I'm here in the city. After that, I'm sure we might be headed back to the Lake Country, and leave Naboo from there.
He nodded in solemn agreement. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad. Maybe, this time would be different.

now that he had seen the First Order in action, he knew how dangerous they were. They had to be stopped. But, still - it unnerved Zalor a bit to know that Raven wasn't the one in charge after all, nor did they seem to have a plan of any kind. It made him wonder what role he would play in this band of misfit heroes.
"Of course - I've already made up my mind, I'm not letting you leave without me." Zalor was quick to reassure Raven of his intentions, but he let his skepticism show, if only a little. "I was just hoping you'd be able to tell me exactly what I'm getting myself into. I suppose I'll have to talk to Matango, then, to get the specifics I'm looking for. For now, it's enough to know that we'll be taking the fight to a very dangerous enemy." |

Loki walked briskly towards the inn's door, it had taken about ten minutes to get there directly from the location Kel'an had chosen for his ambush, though it had taken Loki hours to get there, most likely a tiring technique used to attempt tiring the Zabrak out, however Kel'an should have remembered that Loki like Dash could go days, weeks even without need for food or sleep.
"Anna?" Loki said inclining his head towards the girl. "Why do you have the dagger? How did you retrieve it from my room?" Loki asked pointedly as they stepped into the hotel, Loki found a couch in the lobby and laid Kel'an on it. "ANNERI!!" He bellowed into the hotel, causing the few people nearby to shrink back in fear at the large brutish looking Zabrak's sudden outburst. "RAVEN." He added yelling her name as well before looking back at Kel'an. "How did he survive?" Loki whispered to himself leaning down and looking at the scar tissue on his throat. "I saw his head fall.." He said straightening up and looking at Anna. "I need water." He said simply looking towards the kitchen. His robes where scored and tattered in spots, flesh wounds exposed for all to see, outwardly he felt no pain but inwards, his soul ached, he had come close to killing this boy again. He had wanted to, he had needed too. But he couldn't. |

*Lavi smiles softly, she could tell even before the words had left his lips that he wasn't happy with her, she knew that would happen, but she could not in good consious let him walk out of her alone. Not after all she'd seen of him so far. He needed her, weather he wanted to admit it or not.*
I know you aren't. And that's why I insist. In time, you will see.
*She didn't have to be a seer or even a Jedi to see it. She had no attunement to the force,
but she always felt sort of an empathy toward other beings. She could feel when they needed someone, and she could not let it go unless she at least tried to help. She was often insistant, but never in a rude way. She continued to eat until she'd had her fill. Se pushed the plate away from herself and delicately dabbed her lips with the napkin and laid it over the plate. She looked up at Farris with soft eyes.*
Don't worry, Farris. It will be fine. I promise.

Believe me Zalor, I wish I knew what we were getting ourselves into also. My first brush with the First Order was on Etti Vii, and it was anything but pleasant.
Alora frowned in contemplation before taking another sip of her tea. She knew Zalor's feelings. He was not only willing to jump off a cliff with them- but leave his peaceful life here, to become the under cover Jedi agent he was years ago. Perhaps that was why the force brought them here. Perhaps Zalor could help out things into perspective.
I'm not all together sure who's the actual leader. A lot of people have deferred to me- for some reason. Honestly I wish I knew more of what we could be doing so I could give them answers. In a way Loki led our first and only mission.
As if on cue, the massive Zabrak shouted at them from the lobby and Alora's frame shot upright, peering at the door. He's always dragging unconscious people around...
She mused, standing and placing her mug on the table. Let's go take a look.
She gave a nod to Zalor and then started for the Lobby. She could sense a lot of tension- anger, guilt... clouding over the scene. Something ran deeper than the surface here.
Loki- Who is he? She asked solemnly, as she approached. Presently she could slightly sense Anna but couldn't see her just yet. She gave Loki a curious, but somewhat soft look- sensing his pain.

Farris stood up from the table and shrugged his silver shoulders. You say that not- but no one's tried to shoot at you or punch you in the face yet.
He smiled slightly and glanced at the door as the large Zabrak ambled in with his latest kill, like a great hunter. No- wait, that man was still alive. Ah well. Farris had no idea what was going on, and he wasn't particularly curious either. Perhaps things were about to start getting complicated here. Best to leave and get his errands done- best to get lavi out of this time bomb of an Inn.
Actually there's something I could use your help with. Come join me.
He said, offering the Sky'tri a hand before heading toward the door. The Polydroxol grabbed a full jug of water off the counter- set there by the caring staff who knew he'd probably want it. In passing, Farris handed the Jug off to Loki who had previously requested water.
There you go. Take care of yourself.
He said- training off when he saw Anna behind Loki. He gave her a curious, skeptical look as if checking for signs of stress of injuries.
And you take care of yourself too.
He murmured to her before passing.
The Seer reached out and gripped his arm though, forcing the Polydroxol to turn and peer down at Anna.
Be, careful.
He heard her whisper. Nodding, he made sure Lavi was with him, before leaving the Inn.

Anna had some difficulty- but she managed to keep up with the much larger being she followed. She faltered however when he asked her how she got the dagger- point blank. She looked sheepishly up at him and tilted her head contemplating her response.
I hired a hacker.
She said with a thin smile. However odd it sounded, it was almost true- actually it was extremely accurate. It really doesn't matter how I got it. It's mine. Keeping it from me was a mistake.
She said reaching behind her head to untie the blind fold. They walked into the Inn and she caught Farris on his way out the door, speaking to him briefly. His trip wouldn't be as safe as he thought it would be.
Opening her eyes again, she looked over at Loki as he laid Kel'an on the sofa, and blinked rapidly. For a second he didn't look like the Zabrak she knew- in tattered robes and a concerned look on his face. For a second he was clad in gleaming golden armor and his expression was anything but concerned.
The vision made Anna take a quick- almost timid step back away from the Zabrak. It had only been an instant- but she now had to ponder on why such a vision was given to her. It didn't make sense. Because it wasn't a vision of the future.
...but of the past.

It started to bother Zalor, if only a little, that Raven's group didn't apparently have any sort of real leadership or direction to it, although Zalor understood that Raven was trying to do her best to give it such. He so very badly wanted to finally meet Adieumus,
so he could get his perspective on what was happening in the galaxy and why they had formed a group to stop it. Zalor had half a mind to go back to the front desk of the Ja'raak Inn and ask Vaili if he had checked in with the others, until...
"ANNERI!! RAVEN!" The unmistakable sound of Loki's voice bellowing at them, a sound he knew all too well.
This time, however, it sounded less hostile and more urgent, which made more sense to Zalor given Loki's new allegiance to Raven Alora. He could sense another familiar presence enter the Inn, one he hadn't felt in a long time. He raised a startled eyebrow as he exchanged surprised glances with Raven.
"Yeah, I think we better..."
Zalor stood up and kept pace with Raven as she left the cafeteria towards the Front Lobby. The two Jedi bounded into the front lobby in time to see Loki carefully deposit a very wounded and badly beaten man onto one of the Lobby's waiting couches. Zalor stopped in his tracks once he saw the man's face.
It had been a long time, but - underneath the bruises and cuts, was the face of another former ally - one Zalor had thought dead. Zalor had only known him as Ke'lan.
Zalor quickly realized the irony of Ke'lan's appearance. He was a very close friend of Master Dash. He and the Zabrak Jedi Master would often sit on the rooftop of the old Dantooine Enclave and talk, and they were rarely apart. Zalor also remembered how Ke'lan hated Loki, and could never quite figure out what made his vendetta against Dash's brother so personal. With the appearance of Dash's ghost, and Loki's reemergence, Ke'lan's appearance seemed timely. But how was he alive? And what was he doing here on Naboo?
"It's not possible..."
Zalor muttered to himself softly, standing perfectly still as a statue, trying to determine what Ke'lan's appearance meant. It was good to see him, but he was part of the old guard of the Jedi Shadows, before the Enclave on Endor had been destroyed and rebuilt. He had been out of commission for quite some time. Was he still after Loki?

Loki looked at Anna quizzically, and sighed deeply, then as they entered he turned to Raven and Zalor as they approached his look of concern not fading as he saw Zalor's face as he approached the man on the couch. "It seem's more than one ghost has walked into Zalor's life recently. " Loki said quietly. "He let his prescence leak, so I investigated, I followed him for some time before being lead willingly into an ambush, he want's revenge for the death of my brother and the others I killed at Endor." Loki said placidly. "He want's that very much, if it weren't for Anna, I would have had to kill him today, he would not quit, but then you know him better than I do, even when I twisted him for my own gains for a time." Loki said quietly. "You weren't on the bridge of my ship, you did not know he was Vader two, that he betrayed me and attempted to help your friends fight me." Loki said quietly. "I thought I had beheaded him, but clearly it was merely a flesh wound." Loki said pointing at the scar tissue around the man's neck. "I don't know what this mean's Zalor, but I think you should be here when he wakes up." Turning to Raven he looked down at his feet. "Kel'an is his name, I will omit his last name for now." Loki said looking at Zalor again. "He is my brother's old apprentice, and was once the best friend of Zalor's master. he was presumed dead along with Dash and Sonin." Loki said quietly. "I'm not sure what is going on here, but everything seem's strange..." Loki said finding a seat and settling heavily into it. |

Alora listened, intrigued by the story. Loki seemed to be coming face to face with all the dredges of his past- and, at least in her opinion- he was handling it remarkably well. She expected nothing less from the formal, stoic Zabrak. But when he mentioned Anna, and moved away, revealing her, the Jedi Master gave the young girl a quizzical look. She was still clothed in the black neural body suit- but rather than looking around with her new ocular implants, the Seer had opted to tie some sort of white cloth around her shaven head- covering the eyes. Raven supposed she couldn't blame Anna. The girl hadn't had true eyes for several years.
I see- Raven said to Loki, tilting her head and contemplating for a moment. It appears you're not as good at killing as you thought- and apparently this Kel'an isn't as forgiving as Zalor. You may run into more people like this. She consoled. You may have changed- but that doesn't change the impression you left on others. It won't be easy facing people from you past- and you may never get use to it.
She frowned suddenly and glanced away- adding almost as an afterthought, I know I didn't..
Glancing over at Anna, Raven smiled thinly and took a step toward the girl. and you- breaking up a fight? Are you finally listening to my teachings? She asked- a bit of pride in her voice.

It wasn't diplomacy-
Anna said hollowly, glancing down at the strange runic looking dagger clasped at her side. The thing radiated dark energy, and even though the girl fought to keep it contained- someone like any of the three force users around her would feel its malevolent presence.
But at least right now- the girl couldn't care less what the others around her thought, even Loki. The 19-year-old's mind was far away at the moment. Something was wrong- something was dreadfully out of place. Something had happened, Fate never intended to happen and it was up to Anna- at least for now- to fix it.
I'm just- going to find somewhere to be alone for a while-
The girl said again, in a distant, distracted manner. She walked off slowly- paced as if afraid she'd run into something- not because of the blind fold, but because of her own distraction. Finding an empty room, she walked in and closed- locked the door. Grabbing a pillow off the bed, she sat upon it, and settled herself cross legged. Lowering her head, she reached out with her force presence, looking for the anomaly- and- after a few minutes, she found it, landing on the planet- stepping out of its shuttle.
What once was- had become again- and it should not be.
Anna sucked in a sharp breath of air and let it out very slowly- allowing the breath to take her very being with it- into the cascades of the force, traveling toward the man who had become two.
Perhaps...she could stop him, before it was too late.
But even Anna knew the task would be fruitless. Her intervention would stop nothing from happening, because as skewed as Fate's will had become- Fate still knew how it would play out- and thus, so did Anna.
But she had to try anyway. She had to try to ease the impact of the bomb that was sure to fall.

Zalor let out a half-amused, half-concerned chuckle at Loki's last remark.
"...'Everything seems strange?' Understatement of the week."
Zalor sighed before falling silent, keeping his gaze on Ke'lan as he lay on the couch. He was both exhausted from the battle on Dantooine and puzzled by Ke'lan's appearance that he hardly noticed the Seer, Anna, appear next to Loki, nor did he really listen to their conversation.
He had expected to go searching for some of the old Jedi Shadows members, which included his friends. He never thought that any of them, besides Tanara, would come to find him here. Then again, Zalor had to remind himself that it was probably Loki, not him, that brought Ke'lan here. Ke'lan's apparent hatred for Loki,
having killed his brother Dash, and nearly having tried to kill Master Chris as well, stayed his constant persistence in tracking the Zabrak warrior. It was the only rational explanation.
Zalor had no problem with staying to see if Ke'lan would wake up. He had half a mind to help him wake up, in fact. After a few seconds of standing and appearing perplexed, however, Zalor looked down at the state of himself. He was in dire need of a change of gear after what had happened on Dantooine.
Zalor finally sighed once more, then turned to leave the lobby. "Give me a moment..." Zalor muttered aloud to Loki as he left the Lobby of the Ja'raak Inn.
In a half hour's time, Zalor had returned to his room at the Inn, where he showered, freshened up, and gave himself time to unwind after having returned home. Zalor then reemerged back into the Lobby, now dressed in his plain Neubian street clothing, having ditched his battle gear, although he still wore his S-5 blaster and his lightsaber on his belt, and was still wearing the leg and arm guards from his battle armor. He wanted to be comfortable, but ready for a scrap in case Ke'lan came to and decided to resume his assault on Loki. Zalor still wasn't sure how he would explain the drastic change in Loki's behavior to Ke'lan, but he was at least willing to intervene in case it came to blows.
Without saying a word, Zalor sat down in a chair on the opposite side of the room from Loki and Ke'lan. He folded his hands and leaned forward, silently gazing at the sight of Loki watching over Ke'lan, as if watching over the former apprentice of Dash...protecting him. It was a strange sight, given their history.

Loki stood and began pacing back and forth as Zalor sat down across from them, Loki glanced back and forth between Zalor and Kel'an. "It is strange, being among those I once hated so fiercely." He said with a sense of solemnity, he looked forlorn and confused. His mind reeled, since waking from the coma he had changed so much. From attacking the First order lab and saving Anna's life to dueling Kel'an here on Naboo life had taken on a whirlwind affect, not unlike when he was a foremost Sith warlord attempting to rule the galaxy. He sighed heavily and turned towards Zalor. "Aside from your friends, who from the Shadows did you hear from last?" Loki asked quietly looking at Raven and then Anna, how, how did he get here? How did his life end up like this? He was lucky, he should be dead, if not at Endor, then for sure by Zalor a few days ago. But now, now he was becoming someone new, someone better, and a part of him, the rage seethed at the thought but other parts rejoiced for he was becoming something he was always meant to. |

Shaking his head after the strangeness going on within the Inn- Farris kept Lavinina at his side- mainly because he was having flash backs of his last companion and with people out hunting for the big Zabrak fellow- the Polydroxol wasn't taking any chances.
I- personally hope this day calms down a little. It just keeps getting stranger and stranger.
It was then that the two- Tall silver nondescript featured humanoid, and brilliant green feathered Sky'tri turned the corner and Farris got a full look at a rather tall- rather familiar looking Zabrak approaching them with purpose. He blinked his gray liquid eyes and tilted his head curiously.
Loki? He said quizzically- keeping Lavinia close by. Can you use the force to teleport now?
While he did slow his pace- he didn't completely stop. His goal wasn't to engage the Zabrak in a prolonged conversation. He had things to do, but this situation was curious, and so was the Polydroxol.

Lord Loki paused in his stride and looked up from his datapad, strange this being seemed to know him, Loki however was helmeted so he pretended to ignore the being and continued his walk towards the inn, looking back at the two strange beings. They where very out of place for Naboo, but then so was he. He looked back down at the datapad again and turned the corner, soon he came to the main entrance of the inn and he looked up. "Hmm, what a strange place for corpse. " He muttered to himself as he entered the building and walked through the lobby ignoring the front desk clerk as they greeted him, he walked passed them and into the waiting room and looked up, and he stopped and stared in awe at the scene before him. "How..How..." He said quietly retreating a step and knocking something to the ground.
Loki turned from his pacing and heard a vase crash to the ground. What he saw left him slack jawed as he started at silver armored version of himself he was dumbfounded, and then his memory kicked in and he gasped, his hearts had stopped for more than minute on Etti IV. "Zalor...Raven, we have a problem."
He said pointing at himself, but by himself he meant the clone which had removed its helmet, revealing yellow glowing eyes, to mirror Loki's save it was unmarred, and both eyes where wholly intact. "I have made a grave mistake.." Loki said quietly. "Grave indeed." Lord Loki retorted, from across the room. "How is it you are alive, I cannot exist if you survived, how could I have made such a mistake." The armored Zabrak mused. |

Loki stood and began pacing back and forth as Zalor sat down across from them, Loki glanced back and forth between Zalor and Kel'an. "It is strange, being among those I once hated so fiercely." He said with a sense of solemnity, he looked forlorn and confused. His mind reeled, since waking from the coma he had changed so much. From attacking the First order lab and saving Anna's life to dueling Kel'an here on Naboo life had taken on a whirlwind affect, not unlike when he was a foremost Sith warlord attempting to rule the galaxy. He sighed heavily and turned towards Zalor. "Aside from your friends, who from the Shadows did you hear from last?" Loki asked quietly looking at Raven and then Anna, how, how did he get here? How did his life end up like this? He was lucky, he should be dead, if not at Endor, then for sure by Zalor a few days ago. But now, now he was becoming someone new, someone better, and a part of him, the rage seethed at the thought but other parts rejoiced for he was becoming something he was always meant to.
Zalor was among the last to leave the Forest Moon alive, taking off with the rusty ol' Arfive, in place of Artoo, in his N-1 starfighter.
Then Dressel. For a few days before coming home - alone and separated from all of the other Jedi Shadows and his friends, Zalor hid out with an old Duros starship mechanic named Tellis Dar Kallig, whose life he had saved when Darth Zulataan attempted to subdue the planet. The Duros' old hangar had become a safehouse for Zalor and his friends since. It was there he made his last transmissions to any contacts outside of Naboo.
"Well..." began Zalor, as he recalled those precious final transmissions... "...I remember talking to the Azzameen family, Evan's dad, aunt and uncle...letting them know about what happened on Endor. Then I spoke with Master Chris one last time. He was on Bakura with his wife and new son, far away when the worst of it came. I had hoped my friends would've joined them, but when they never responded back, I assumed something had happened to them and that Bakura wasn't safe. So...I came back here, instead. Back home."
Zalor winced when he spoke the words 'back home,' as if remembering his cowardice, the gut feeling in his stomach convincing him his friends were gone.
"I should've just went to Bakura, like I had planned." Zalor was quick to add, feeling guilty once more about abandoning the others. "...had I gone to Bakura instead of coming home, I could've found the others, and we might all still be together."
Zalor turned back to face Ke'lan, still talking to Loki. "But, that's all I've heard from since. I haven't heard from my mother, my brother and sister, or any of the Jedi Shadows, including Master Vilor or the other Council members. No one. Then again, I wasn't expecting to see you. Or Master Ke'lan, either." |

Moments later... Lord Loki paused in his stride and looked up from his datapad, strange this being seemed to know him, Loki however was helmeted so he pretended to ignore the being and continued his walk towards the inn, looking back at the two strange beings. They where very out of place for Naboo, but then so was he. He looked back down at the datapad again and turned the corner, soon he came to the main entrance of the inn and he looked up. "Hmm, what a strange place for corpse. " He muttered to himself as he entered the building and walked through the lobby ignoring the front desk clerk as they greeted him, he walked passed them and into the waiting room and looked up, and he stopped and stared in awe at the scene before him. "How..How..." He said quietly retreating a step and knocking something to the ground.
Loki turned from his pacing and heard a vase crash to the ground. What he saw left him slack jawed as he started at silver armored version of himself he was dumbfounded, and then his memory kicked in and he gasped, his hearts had stopped for more than minute on Etti IV. "Zalor...Raven, we have a problem."
He said pointing at himself, but by himself he meant the clone which had removed its helmet, revealing yellow glowing eyes, to mirror Loki's save it was unmarred, and both eyes where wholly intact. "I have made a grave mistake.." Loki said quietly. "Grave indeed." Lord Loki retorted, from across the room. "How is it you are alive, I cannot exist if you survived, how could I have made such a mistake." The armored Zabrak mused.
Zalor looked back and forth between the two Zabraks, both very confused and worried, but ready for trouble. With a calm but slightly annoyed tone, he quickly prodded Loki for answers... "Loki, what did you do this time?"

The Twi'lek gently set down her half empty bottle, frowning at the blue and white astromech droid at her side. "Be nice Artoo, Sin's a friend." She, along with everyone else in the cafeteria, heard the booming voice of the Zabrak Sith, and although she didn't go investigate like Zalor, she did attempt to lean out.
From where she was sitting, she could tell they were standing around someone or something on one of the sofas in the entrance hall, but she couldn't tell what it was. She tried leaning out more, and nearly fell out of her chair, quickly reaching out to the astromech droid. She managed to stop herself by holding onto the dome of the droid, but was unfortunately not at an angle that would allow her to simply shift back into her seat. It did however, allow her to spot the second Zabrak in the entrance hall.
Her frown deepened as she stared at the two nearly identical Zabraks, highly confused. Two Loki's? "I'm not that drunk, am I?" Feeling herself losing her grip, she stepped off her chair to firmly plant her feet on the ground and straightened herself...or at least she tried to, the room started to wobble on her so she quickly forced herself back onto her chair. She looked over at her drinking companion and poised a question. "Am I seeing things, or are there two Loki's in the entrance hall?"
