Meeting With The Zabrak

[Lucilius Solo]

As the shuttle landed, every body began to stand up. As Nir stood up, he began to think, What are we supposed to do on Kashyyyk? Where are we to start? As the boarding ramp was lowered and the people began to file out, Nir looked back at Jiko and asked "Where do you want to head first?"

[Jiko]

"Well first I think we should rent a mode of transport. Then we can ask the locals if they know any slave traders in the area."

Jiko walked off the shuttle

"Then again I'd say a mode of transport is out of the question if we want to remain undercover."

Jiko begins to approach a local

[Lucilius Solo]

Nir began to nod, and then his HoloNet reciever began to ring. Nir unhooked it off his belt and activated it. The hologram of an armored Zabrak popped on the screen. "I am Gramor Grottil" began the Zabrak "I know your on Kashyyyk. My men reported that to me." Nir looked at the hologram of the Zabrak for a few seconds before replying "I take it your the leader of these slavers?"

The hologram of Gramor looked at Nir, and then after a minute of silence Gramor replied "Yes. If you want a meeting with me, meet me on the Great Walkway immediatly. Good day Master Jedi." and Gramor's hologram dissapeared. Nir walked off of the shuttle. Nir was immediatly surrounded by massive Wroshyr trees and walkways built first by Czerka when they inhabited the planet long ago, and now rebuilt by the Zabrak slavers. Nir made a right, and headed down a massive walkway that was lined with auto turrets and armored Zabrak guards. Nir came to a gate that would lead to the Great Walkway. One of the Zabrak guarding the gate, came up to Nir and said "Gramor is waiting for you." The guard walked over to a console and typed something in. The gate slid open, and revealed numerous walkways each leading to a different area of Kashyyyk. Nir walked out, and motioned for Jiko to follow him. saw Gramor standing in the middle of the walkway, two bodyguards beside him. It was now or never, this was their chance to negotiate the departure of the slavers, and to find out if the Republic is supporting them. Nir was going to make the best of their oppourtunity.

[Jiko]

Jiko nodded waliing ahead of Nir now leading the way once more. She approached Gramor but kept her distant. She knew there was a gun in her hilt but she would try and refrain from using it.

"Gramor. If you don't mind could you please answer a few questions about any piracy in the area?"

Jiko waited for a response giving a gulp

[Lucilius Solo]

The armored Zabrak leader, Gramor looked at Jiko and said "Very well. If you wish, go right ahead."

[Jiko]

Jiko once more pulled out her datapad

"Are you or anyone you know being funded by either the Republic or an unknown source and if so who and where can I locate this persona?"

[Lucilius Solo]

Nir shifted his position next to Jiko, as Gramor anwsered. "Come now, do you think I would tell you where we were getting our funds from. If I do then our supply of credits dries up. Next question."

[Jiko]

Jiko turned to Nir whispering something in his ear

"I think it is time for aggressive negotiations."

She turned back to Gamor putting her hand behind her back and on her pistol. Read to pull it out.

[Lucilius Solo]

Nir unhooked his lightsaber from his belt and kept it ready to active at a moment's notice. Gramor smiled and said "Oh, so this is the way you want to do negotiations, huh? Very well. GUARDS ACTIVATE THE TURRETS!"

[Jiko]

Viqi took out her Pistol taking a few shots at the guards.

"We have to get him Nir!"

Viqi shouted this as she fired her pistol

[Lucilius Solo]

Nir activated his lightsaber, and immediatly destroyed a turret. Gramor smiled and took off running down the Great Walkway. Immediatly after, six Zabrak came charging at Nir and Jiko. Nir Force pushed one of the Zabrak over the side of the Great Walkway where he fell to his death. The other five circled around Nir and began to fire.

Nir deflected the blaster fire and struck two of the Zabrak down. Then Nir charged one and quickly beheaded him. The other two weren't as easy. Nir had to constantly deflect blaster bolts, until he could kill them. Finally, Nir quickly stabbed one through the chest with his lightsaber and then Force pushed the other off of the Great Walkway.

Then the fire stopped. Nir deactivated his lightsaber and walked down the Great Walkway in the direction Gramor went. Nir motioned for Jiko to follow him, as Nir came to an elevator. Turning back to Jiko he said "Gramor went into the Shadowlands. We must find him."

[Jiko]

Whilst Nir is fighting the other guards Jiko went running after Gamor Following him into the hadowlands

OOC: what is the shadowlands?

[Lucilius Solo]

OOC: The Shadowlands is where only the brave enter, and very few of them return. It is where the roots of the massive Wroshyr trees are.

Nir waited while the lift rose, and then once it had he boarded it. It was a simple machine, and even the a person who knew nothing of ships and such could operate it. Nir lowered the switch, and the lift began it's quick decent into the dark and unwelcoming Shadowlands. Once the lift touched the bottom, Nir stepped off and saw Jiko. "Did you see where Gramor went?" he asked.

[Jiko]

straight ahead. Jiko began running again getting her clothes muddy making he mad but this was no time to think about that.

[Lucilius Solo]

Nir activated his lightsaber and ran in the direction Jiko had pointed him in. Nir came to a group of Kinrath and he quickly killed them. But by now, all the Wroshyr trees looked the same and there were many paths to choose. Turning to Jiko he asked "Which way should we go?"

[Jiko]

Jiko also looked confused looking all the ways to choose. She turned around almost falling over from confusion. She then turned to Nir

"Hmmm I dont know. We have to catch him Nir."

Jiko almost moved but decided to wait

[Lucilius Solo]

Nir used the Force to detect Gramor's path down the middle row of trees. Nir began to run down the middle row of trees, and saw a nest on Kinrath a few feet from him. He ignited his saber and killed two of the Kinrath before he became surronded. There was the sound of a loud roar and when Nir turned around he saw a massive wookie rushing towards him, bowcaster in hand. Nir readied himself, unsure if the wookie was after him or the Kinrath.
