Skyscrapers that seemed to stretch into eternity, thick clouds of smog that hung just above everyone's heads, sometimes even settling down into the air that the normal people of the planet would be breathing. This, inevitably, led to upper Respiratory problems, and that ended up leading to other issues, including a weakened immune system. Which was what brought Silene to the planet of Druckenwell.
A Knight-Consular by rank, the woman's trade within the order was that of a Healer, and recently, a minor plague had been rocking the understories of Il Avali, the Planet's capitol. High in the Skyscrapers, the Wealthy were safe and healthy, yet, on the ground, in the streets, people were suffering. When she'd heard about the Epidemic on the HNN, Silene had Volunteered to go, immediately.
On her way to the Planet, she had placed a call, of sorts, something that someone in the temple had suggested that she do. Druckenwell was a rough planet, and Silene wasn't a rough person. The Jedi couldn't spare anyone else, not with what was happening around the Galaxy, so she'd been allowed to find a bodyguard, and the person she'd called....
A Bounty Hunter, not the most graceful of employments, but one that apparently paid well. The man's name had been Zett Rem, and the offer had been...not amazing, but decent, a good pay for minimal work. Silene honestly didn't expect much trouble, not when she was giving healthcare for free to the people who needed it most.
This, however, was three days ago, and having arrived on Druckenwell, Silene had let no time go to waste before getting to work, Up at all hours of the day and night, working her fingers to the bone, figuratively. Between Diagnosing and actually using the Force to pull impurities from the Lungs of children and the elderly. Even the young adults were afflicted, the Atmosphere around them a poison that was destroying their bodies slowly. It was heart-wrenching and despicable.
It was with a sigh, however, that Silene continued her work, taking breaks only to go and get more supplies, or to eat in her own special way.
Now was one of those breaks. Silene had run out of a particular disinfectant, and had started to go to the store, in order to purchase some more. The Planet's Sun was setting over the city now, and the shadows cast across the street were dark and menacing. Shivering a little, Silene pulled her robes closer over her pale, green-tinged skin, keeping on the move, wondering where, or if even, the help she'd contacted would be arriving....

The City was dark and smelled as if something had died in the streets, the air was even unclean to a extent... He had forgotten how damaged the planets of the Republic could be, the Republic was in every way the safe haven. Not for all, but for the rich and powerful members of common society.
this was one of the most disturbing issues with in the republic, witch made the idea of a empire taking control seem almost ideal, although a somewhat young Zabrak was still unclear on how he would approach the idea in his head, he had no faith in the Republic and no trust in the Empire, picking sides was clearly a lose, lose situation.
So he felt it was time to walk his own path, nobody to control him or his actions, not the Jedi or Sith would own him. He felt those alliances only made him weaker and his mind ever more clouded. He was on the hunt for somebody to assist in his extraction and exit of the Sith Order. He knew if he was suspected to have lived though his leave he would become the victim of a Sith assassin... So he had to plan carefully as to not be suspected of his future crimes against the Sith.
He had found info on a Bounty Hunter to help with his extraction, he simply called anonymously giving no details other than the knowledge that this is a job he will find himself well paid for. Setting up a meeting with this man in a local Pub for later. He arrived rather early and waited for the man next to a stores entry way watching the building closely for the arrival of the Bounty Hunter.
He did not plan to spend to much time on this planet do to the long walk from the outskirts he was forced to land in back to this location, so he had few options and needed this all worked out at a proper pace. He simply stood and waited in a meditative state and he prepared for the arrival of his hired hand.

((OOC---Note this will be before Ante' joins my crew in 'Pit Hole to full'.))
Zett Rem was travailing looking for some money to add to his account, he was travailing the mid rim area at the moment when he heard about not one but to well paying jobs on the planet Drukenwell where he was now heading. The first was a job to assist a Jedi healer to act as a body guard for her and give what advice he could not that he was the best at those types of things, that why he would use his Med droid 'Doc' for this task. The second was a much better paying mystery job, Zett could only guess that he would be running into trouble with this man, and that he was running from.... something.
Zett would be doing a bit of multi tasking in the next few days, The nav computer let it's warning beeps off, and Zett adjusted the Hyper space levers as the star streaks disappeared, faded into little white dots as the huge mass of a planet stood unsuspended in front of the ship.
Zett had heard of what the smog could do to a person just to be save he would start of with his helmet, locked. He got to the rounded Ben and stood by the Holo terminal and shouted down the winding hall, 'DOC'...GOT YOUR MED STUFF ROUNDED UP? TIME TO GO WE'RE HERE! He heard the droids metal feet pounding against the metal floor, the then saw the odd looking medical droid appear with a medical bag around one shoulder and a rifle strapped to the other.
Zett picked up his helmet off his weapons crate, slid it onto his head and picked up his twin weasters set them into there holsters, then the Dc-9 rifle of his own and clipped that to a slot on his jet pack, he then set his U3-1 pistol went into his bag along with his trophy light saber off the now dead Sith he killed way back on Montita, when he was once again helping a Jedi healer by the name of Mal Konti. He hoped the virus he was dealing with this time wouldn't be the same as the one that almost started eating away at him back then, he shivered a bit at the thought of the Rakgoul blobs and the huge Rancore that had been consumed by them, back then the Sith where planning on using the virus as a weapon, Zett and the small group of bounty hunters and Jedi put an end to that, but now at price, Zett had a small bounty on his head from he being responsible for ending that operation, one placed there by the sith.
He shook the thoughts as he returned to his seat on the bridge and settled the ship down where he would meet the Jedi he still had about an hour to meet at the cantina with the other employer.
He stepped out of the ship after checking his helmet was indeed locked, then he approached the first building where he was to meet the Jedi, his droid fallowed closely behind Zett wasn't worried about looking for the Jedi, because the Jedi would more then likely find him first any way.
He stepped into the white hospital looking building where the doctors where over worked and under staffed with no sign of the Jedi in sight.
The first Zabrack nurse ran past him, he stopped her real quick, 'Scuse me, but I'm looking for a Jedi by the name of, Silene Not sure if that's the first or last name of the person. The nurse sighed a bit and handed him a needle and pointed to one of the patients, she had not understood Zett's language, 'Doc' Was already trying to help with one who looked as though she had a real bad case of the flu, the one Zett was directed to had a pale face and cough, Zett double checked his helmet, I'm gonna get sick ain't I? He groaned as he pleased the needle on a passing tray, which turned out to be a bad idea as he was then yelled at in a non basic language that he didn't under stand, Zett then shouted back.
YOU'RE THE DOCTOR, I'M NOT! Just then a realization hit him, they where volunteers, at least some of them.
Zett was then attacked by a old man asking for Drugs and Medicine, I'm not a doctor... He grumbled as he tried to remove the old man from him.
I shoulda' started at the cantina...

As Silene finally re-entered her small clinic, she was seemingly hit in the face by a shouted sentence from a male who looked completely out of place. "YOU'RE THE DOCTOR, I'M NOT" he had shouted at one of the Nurses that had been helping the Jedi Healer with some of the tasks around the Clinic. Blinking a few times, Silene set down her box of supplies and moved towards the Altercation.
Actually, she's a Nurse. The Difference is in Education and what they're usually allowed to do. she said, softly, tilting her head and staring at the man with confusion on her face. That said, I am a Doctor. Did you need help with something today? she added, smiling peacefully, white robes bunched around her as she rolled up her sleeves, moving to start a treatment on one of the other patients. Or are you simply here to shout around the ill and make them feel worse? she teased with a chuckle, inhaling deeply as she called upon the Force's power, feeling the impurity in her patient's lungs.

Zanabar was still waiting and had nothing to do at all, so his discomfort in this place grew ever larger simply because of the sickness in the air. The oxygen was almost like poison, and Zanabar was nearing a state of breath control. He hated to wait, but a environment like this was sickening, but this was the only place the Republic nor Sith would think to look for him, ironically this is a Republic planet...
Zanabar couldn't think of where he could go to escape the Sith for long... BUT this was his best chance and he had to take it. He felt like walking about and finding a place that was safe from the illness. SO he went to the hospital and the suspicious dark robed figure who waited near the exit looking at the people walk about he simply sat there and attempted to rest, although the room was still full of taint...
Although suddenly his mind cleared and he could feel the energy of a Jedi, suddenly on guard Zanabar simply started walking though the medical center hoping to find the Jedi, ignoring any Doctor or nurse he passes in the hall, despite them yelling in his ear.

Zett saw the white robbed figure coming before she had reached him. Zett smiled then replied, Yes, I'm aware of the difference between a doctor and nurse, but as you can tell... He looked down at his armored suit still safely locked inside his helmet...I'm obviously not either of the two. He lead himself into a bow which had seamed to be customary between Jedi from what his dealings on Montita had taught him any way.
My names Zett Rem and I'll be your body guard this week. Sorry i got here a bit late by the way, Ship troubles. Zett checked his chrono again having about 40 minutes before he had to meet up with his other client. So it came as a surprise when he noted a man with no ill health walking as if blindly through the crowds.
Why does it look like I'm not the only one who doesn't belong here? He pointed the wondering man out to Silene.
Zett had some hunch that the other man happened to be looking for Zett but he couldn't see why. So turning to Silene he spoke again, Excuse me for a moment. He then turned away and approached the man.
Hello? He asked when he had gotten close to him keeping one hand on at least one of his weapons just in case this was another of Hebbas goons.
