Other Info: Closed RP of how I gained my bike.
Alkeran piloted 'The Unholy Refuge' through Naboo's atmosphere until the lush greenery was visible below. He slowed the ship to a sensible speed and headed to the outskirts of a small town. Spaceports were too crowded, plus he'd have to pay. It was easier if he just landed illegaly for a few days.
The bottom cannons folded inside the ship and the landing gear extended. The ship gently pressed against the surface, pressing into the dense ground slightly, before lifting up and coming to a rest. The engines powered down and a small ramp lowered.
Alkeran walked down the ramp, fastening the clip on his Dark Jedi robes and concealing his saber hilt. As he left the ramp, he pressed a few buttons on a wrist mounted console and the ramp ascended back to the ship. Looking at the town it was a good hour walk. He sighed and set off.
<I really need to get a means of transport.> He thought to himself.
As he approached the edge of the city he was surprised to see no city wall. Although, Naboo was alot more peaceful than other planets, and all of the 'dangerous' creatures either couldn't get on land, or were scared off by the noises of the city.
He walked into the city and just wandered around. Some nice buildings, and some very appealing modes of transport. He just needed to find a way to get one of them.
As he walked, the wind was whipping through the narrow street, his robes billowing behind him. He noticed several looks from people trying to figure out if he was a good Jedi or a bad one. He never let anytihng away though. He left them to wonder as he strode past them.
Ten minutes into the city he saw one particular house. A large wall around the perimeter, which was easy to get over. Looking inside there were several patrol droids and a particularly gorgeous speeder bike, with enough space to be modified. A small smile crossed his face. The bike looked like it could get over the wall using it's thrusters, which meant they wouldn't even have to open the gate for him.
He stepped out into the garden and quicky moved so he was near the gate, making it look like he had just entered. Two droids immediately came over to him.
-You are on private property. Identify your name and purpose.- The droid said.
"I'm just a guest. I'd like to see the owner." Alkeran responded with a neutral voice- not that the droid would care.
-You are unauthorized. State your purpose.-
Alkeran looked at the two of them. This was obviously not going anywhere. He sighed before looking up at them. Using the force, he brought the two droids together with a crash, smashing them together and destroying them.
He watched as two other droids rounded the corner with their weapons raised. As they fired, Alkeran pulled his saber and activated one blade. He deflected the shots back, destroying the droids before stashing the saber again.
He walked towards the house and watched as the doors closed in front of him. He could hear security forces approaching the house. No doubt alarmed by the weapons fire.
He activated his lightsaber again and began cutting through the door. As he got half way, he sensed a droid behind him. Not even looking, he raised his hand and pushed the droid to the ground, crushing it. Once the blade reached the top once more, he kicked the door in and stepped into the house.
In front of him were 4 security droids and what he guessed was the owner of the house.
"What are you doing!?" The man cried, pointing a blaster rifle at him.
Alkeran looked at him, no doubt the man would only be able to see the piercing green of his eyes amongst the sea of black shadow from the cloak. "I want your speeder."
"What? My speeder?"
Alkeran nodded.
"Well then, thief. You can have blaster ammo instead. Kill him!"
The droids took a step forward and started firing their rifles.
Alkeran pulled his saber, activating both blades and deflected all of the bolts back, hitting everything around the man including his droids, but leaving the man unharmed. He flinched as all of the shots hit around him, destroying his droids.
"Wait! Don't kill me. You can take the speeder! I don't want to mess with a Jedi..."
Alkeran slowly walked towards the man, deactivating one blade and levelling the other at him. "Or I could kill you and take the speeder anyway?"
The man's mouth opened to protest, but his head was severed by a swift blow from Alkeran first. He smiled and stepped over the corpse and the wreckage and headed to the garage.
The door slowly opened and Alkeran looked at the bike. The starter was hanging on a wall nearby. He grabbed it and got into the bike and pressed the starter on, activating the bike.
He slammed the accelerator forward and the bike lurched forward. Pulling up, he sent the bike over the wall.
