((Theron and Sean/Coryn....but open to others as well))
Obviously the council couldn't decide where they wanted to send Sihara. At first they had sent her to Boz Pity, but half way through the journey, she had received a communication stating that she was to head to Bothawui at the soonest possible moment. Why? She was still trying to figure that out herself. The transmission had been vague at best, though she was more tempted to call it cryptic. From what she had gathered, it had to do with an illegal trade of ysalamiri from Myrkyr to those opposed to the jedi order, and poaching of the dwindling native krak'jya. This, apparently, was being handled by a pet emporium of some kind.
Now she was here, she wondered exactly what she was going to do about the situation. The rust colored female wrapped her robes around her more tightly as she waited for Theron to appear. Of course, she had already informed him of the situation, but as of this moment, it didn't seem particularly dangerous...just annoying.

Theron had rarely had reason to be so glad as to leave a place as he did now. Bothawui had never been high on his list of places to visit in his lifetime, but it seemed a gem now. Relations on that ship had grown quite strained... Theron simply never grew used to spending time around people more than necessary. Cramped up in that ship, surrounded by the same handful of people, he'd found himself quite on edge, especially given the rather explosive reaction that seemed to occur whenever he and Shawn were in the same room. Their opinions and personalities conflicted far too much and it had been all that Theron could do in order to not bring the conflict to blows.
It was certainly NOT helping him attempt to find his center, however. When Sihara had given him word that their task had changed and they would be disembarking on Bothawui, he'd felt his first bit of peace for days. Now he stepped off the boarding plank, his satchel of supplies resting lightly on his back. His lightsaber was nestled between his shoulder blades, underneath the pack but with a good hand and a half of it sticking up for easy grip and removal. Crimson eyes saw her there, waiting on him, and he gave a smile. Those teeth were brilliant against the dark cerulean of his features.
"Poachers and blackmarket traders, Sihara? Now this, perhaps, is a task more suitable."

Coryn awoke from the exciting night before his mind still on what had happened all in one day. He got himself ready for his new life which knows revolved around a serious of characters, one a very kind Jedi which accepted to be his teacher. Coryn was so excited to get his training started he already forgot that it will have to be postpone for the time being. Coryn’s mind wounded, still wounding why they changed their accordance. All he was told was that a very impotent order was sent for them to go to Bothawui at once. He hardly mind the inconvenience, in fact to him it was an opportunity to further explore the universe. This all said coryn didn’t bother to ask too many questions he simply agreed to her arrangement and try not to be too excited about it. coryn knew it might be dangerous all the more reason he wanted to go, it was a change to staying on the ship and he was hoping for some action.
Coryn made his way to the boarding dock, he couldn’t wait to breathe in some fresh air, and fell the sun agents his face. He hurried towered the doors hoping that Sihara would let him tag along. Either way coryn already made plans to snack off the ship if opportunity lit it be. He walked down the boarding plank the sunlight seemed to block out his view at first, but after blocking it the view seemed to serial. Coryn eyes twinkled at all the buildings and markets and passing creatures, all of this was new to him and noting like home. He caught sight of the man from before remembering what happened coryn decided it was best to just say hello and noting else. He passed him and politely said hello then looked around seeing his master waiting penitently he walked up to her bowed politely and said in a soft tone “good morning mam’. He then quickly took to her side waiting for orders; he thought if he was on his best behavior he wouldn’t be stuck waiting around the ship.

She smiled brightly at Theron, sensing the relief he felt at being off the ship. Obviously, Shawn was taking a toll on his already tight emotions, and the fact that they were now free from the ship was helping to ease some of his previous tension. Pulling a lekku over her shoulder and stroking it thoughtfully, she nodded slightly at his statement as she noticed Coryn arriving beside her.
Yes, perhaps it is Theron. At least we get to stretch our legs for a while, and hopefully it will be easy enough to take care of.
And good morning to you too Coryn. Are you ready with all of your things? We're not coming back to the ship you know....
The rust colored woman blinked down at the young boy as she spoke. It didn't look like he had any of his things, and so she felt the need to ask. Turning back to Theron, she offered him another smile.
So, Theron...where do you think we should start? I've heard of a supposed 'pet shop' around here, but...

"The Emporium might be a good place to begin. We can get a feel for the area, understand how things work. I have experience with investigations like this. The guilty will betray themselves, in time. You simply have to trust in the Force."
This was where he felt comfortable. This was a hunt. Perhaps it wouldn't be as exciting or dangerous...perhaps he wouldn't be crossing blades against a Dark Jedi, but he was out here, in the field. He was actually relishing this impending investigation.
His entire demeanor was different. His body language and the emanations he gave off in the Force were loose and relaxed. He was in his element, he was comfortable. A genuine smile curled across his lips as he returned the boy's slightly hesitant smile.
Reaching out, he'd ruffle the kid's hair good-naturedly before stepping up next to his companion. She was still, technically in charge. He'd wait for her lead.

Coryn smiled brightly as his master addressed him, she seemed extremely happy maybe it was the fresh air. He smiled as the man gave him a small refuel, at first he was confused but figured he was just trying to be friendly. Either way he was glad to have someone like them to hang around with, he smacked his hand agents his head as she asked where his stuff was. He had no idea they weren’t coming back but the good news brought a bit of exigent over him, he quickly said “I’ll go get my pack” and with that he stormed off quickly back into the ship. After about ten minutes he came back with a pack stuffed with stuff and things in either of his hands. He held a small electrical device in one hand and a belt full of gadgets in the other. He smiled brightly at the two then said “I’m ready”, he had just came back in time to overhear where they were going. Coryn listened quietly as they decided where to go, coryn could tell the man had some experiences in places like this he wounded why exactly had he.coryn could imagine the man possibly being some kind of bandit or out law, just the thought made him want to know more about his past but he knew it wasn’t his place to ask. After letting his mind wonder into childish fantasy’s corn couldn’t wait to go and explore the planet. A billion thoughts wounded through his head of all the possible things they could find out, or get them self’s into.

She nodded to his thought of the Emporium...that was supposedly the center of it, but she didn't want to go there first...the time wasn't right yet. Thinking for a moment, her gut told her they might be there more than a few days and they would need a place to stay. Sighing slightly, she looked over the crowded street as Coryn darted up to them once more...this time with his pack in hand. Looking down a the young man, she smiled at him and put a hand on his shoulder lightly before looking back at Theron.
Well, first things first...a place to stay. I have a feeling this will take a little while. On the way, let's keep a look out for anyone with Krak'jya fur on them. If you see one, ask them where they bought it...it could be a lead. And lastly...keep track of the force. Ysalamiri drain the area around them of the force, so they might not be so difficult to track down...we'll just have to be cautious in areas like that.
Agreeable?
She asked, looking sidelong at Theron. Sihara didn't think he would have much of a problem with the idea, but she was always up for suggestions, and that was what she was looking for right now.

He shrugged a bit.
"I prefer the straightforward approach...but I do believe you are right. We should still at least go to the area the Emporium is in. If it is a nexus for this problem, it will also be the easiest place to catch a clue...be it a loss of Force in the area or some of the fur. People have to see something...the proper application of persuasion would do us well."
Theron would be more than a litte amused by the fantasies going through Coryn's mind, if he knew. The Chiss did not know the feeling...his childhood had been quite a bit different from this one's...but he did not resent the boy's innocence. Rather, he hoped the boy would have the chance to keep it for as long as possible.
"It would be easier without the packs. I concur with your choice to find a place to stay. We'll need a base of operations to correlate all of our findings anyway."

Coryn listened to everything the two had to say, he knew it was very important to know what’s going on even though he didn’t quite understand everything. He kept in mind the small detail to look out for Krak'jya fur,coryn had seen it before but had never actually seen it up close or knew anyone who owned their own. Coryn was again taken way by the man’s suggestion and his almost experienced why of tracking things down. This further his suspension of the man’s past perhaps he really was some kind of bounty hunter or some train assassin.
He shook of the thought off and went back to finding any possible way he could help,coryn knew he was just a kind and was knew at this but he wanted to prove to them his usefulness.coryn stood by waiting for them to move on coryn found it hard to concentrate on the conversation his eyes wounded around all the shops, building ,and passing people. He managed to catch the last bit of the conversation which was it was best to find a base of operations, this was all exiting to coryn he felt like he was the one on the mission he was the Jedi, and it was up to him to see that is done.

Nodding, Sihara smiled brightly and turned to Coryn. He seemed bright and full of energy...this was good, but she needed to make sure he had also been paying attention.
So, were you paying attention then Coryn? It seems like you were, but let's just make sure....what should we do first since we're going to be here for a while?
She asked, turning her face toward the boy.

Coryn was still taking in the sites around him he couldn’t believe how amazing it was he kept in mind too look out for fur had any one pass by with some on. Coryn turned around as he heard Sihara speaking to him he turned around having hared what she said. He smiled he figured he test him after all seeing since she was going to train him, he knew it was important to see how well he took in information. He shook his head and without hesitating begin answering her question.
Well first you said that it’s best to find a place to set up a headquarters since well be staying here for a while, also you said to look out any one with Krak'jya fur it could be a possible lead for what where looking for.
Coryn smile quit pleased with himself, he hoped that by showing her how well he was at listing and taking orders he prove his usefulness to them despite his age.

Theron hiked his pack up a little more, watching while Sihara interacted with her new student. Certainly he'd understood that the woman didn't want a padawan...he could even understand why. He'd never spoken to her about it...but it wasn't hard to see that rift of pain within her. The Force broadcast it from her and he would have had to been blind to the Force not to see it.
He had a feeling that it had something to do with a previous pupil. If his suspicions were correct, then her own problems were not so much different than his own..he could relate to her.

Sihara nodded and smiled at the boy. He was, at least, a good listener...and that could save his life one day. Noticing Theron watching her, she gave him a look that showed she would talk to him about this later that day....if he was truly going to help her, she needed to tell him everything. The force didn't lie, and it could show more than one wanted it to...so she might as well beat it to the punch and tell him herself. Sighing, she listened to what Theron had to say and nodded slightly.
You're right Theron.
She stated, and started walking down the street toward one of the inns. It didn't look like it would be crowded, considering it was just off the main street, but she doubted it would be empty either. A decent place for three jedi to hole up in without much question. Opening the door to the inn, she spoke quietly to the manager. He didn't seem too surprised to see the jedi there, and that made her wary, but she took the key and led the others upstairs to their room anyway. Closing the door behind her, she put her pack down and gazed over at Theron.
Something seems wrong about this place....the manager was too comfortable with seeing us here...like he'd expected us, so keep yourselves alert alright?
She cautioned, looking mainly at Coryn. Hopefully he would stick to them like glue while they were here. The whole situation didn't sit right with her, and she was honestly a bit afraid for the padawan...but then again, she could contribute that more to paranoia and not wanting to relive the past.
Theron, do you know anything about this "Pet Emporium"? If so, now would be a good time to know...

Coryn was pleased to see that what he had to say was good of enough answer; perhaps even as far enough to show her he wasn’t just a tagalong. Coryn partly séance something bothering Sihara he then remembered the story she told him. He felt bad about her last padwan, but Coryn was sure to prove to her he’ll stay out of treble. It was the least he could do after she took him in despite her feelings about it. Coryn also noticed the two exchanged looks witch only made him more suspicious. He stood back listing to the mans proposal he shook his head to himself in agreement. He knew that the man was right about the trail they best go after it while it’s still hot.
Coryn followed them down the street he focused his best on the trial ahead only once in a while looking around. He made sure to stay close to them like a lost puppy, Coryn stayed close immuring the inn to his surprise it was partially full. Yet it didn’t seem to busy considering it was off a busy street, Coryn waited quietly as Sihara made arrangements for there room. Something about it seemed partly too easy, but he passed this feeling aside for the moment.
Coryn followed them to the room he noticed that Sihara seemed even more wary then before; ether way he figured it was just an adult thing. But he couldn’t help but feel like she knew something he figured he best stay quit till the time came. Coryn was surprised as Sihara quickly set her pack down and told Theron that something was possibly going on. This information partly frightened Coryn but he knew he had to be brave if not only for himself but for Sihara sake. He could tell she was already on razors edge by the way she looked at him. He opened his mouth ready to say something to assure her his safety but dissected it was out of place. Instead he shook his head letting her know he got the message loud and clear, he listened as she turned to Theron for further information on the area.
