"The good news, master, is that the Nomad is still capable of atmospheric flight, and it does not appear that we suffered any damage to the hyperdrive. However, I fear her ion engines no longer have the strength to reach escape velocity. If you push them in order to attempt achieving escape velocity it could result in catastophic failure."

Kaybee stops as it runs the computations in it's processors before continueing with it's explination of what's wrong with the Eon Nomad.

"I calculate there is a one in three hundred thirty-seven thousand eight hundred ninety-four chance that you may successfully push the engines to the point of being able to reach escape velocity in their current condition. There is a fifteen percent chance these calculations are in error and the odds against your successfully making escape velocity without the proper repairs is higher or lower. Of course the lower these odds the better your chances will be."

Aiden turns to tell the droid to just worry about fixing the sublights so they can leave this foresaken world when he is hit from behind and knocked out cold. He comes too just in time to see the Eon Nomad rising out of the docking bay.

"Master!" Kaybee shouts from under a pile of rubble. "Master! I tried to stop them but they proved too much for me. Their taking the Nomad. And the Mistress is still onboard! What are we going to do!"

Aiden watches helpless as he comes, he panics a little at first, then calms down, and reports the teft to the control tower on his ptp....

"Control, someone's making off with my ship, it's in no shape to acheive escape velolcity, can you track it?"

He hoped and prayed when, the engines failed, it crashed with Swilja intact, it drove him stark eraving mad she was in danger..........

He goes and pull Kaybee outa the ruble.

Aiden tries contacting the control tower but he gets absolutely no response. It's at that moment that he realizes all his gear save his PTP, wide-scan binocs, and his side arm were on the Nomad.

As the realization of how much trouble he could really be in dawns on him he moves over to help Kaybee out of the rubble. The droid looks a little battered and beaten, but no worse for wear.


"Master, what are we going to do? Did you get into communications with the control tower?"

'No.... lets go to the tower keep site of the noman with your visual sensors Kaybe, while we head there. he the turns his PTP link on and tries to contact Swilja, as he heads to the tower to see what is up..... "Swilja are there?!?! Are you alright?!?!?!"

"Please be alright..." He thought frantically, extremely worried for her.......

"She gets back to me the first thing I say to her is I love you.... I've not admitted that once to her yet..."

"As you command, Master, but the Nomad seems to be getting away. I believe it is traveling north by northeast, though."

Aiden gets no response from the Nomad as he runs towards the control tower. Almost immediately something seems wrong to him. No one appears to be on duty at the door to the first floor tower. A dread of what he'll encounter engulfs him as he moves closer to the doorway.

Will goes in looks around.... assuming no ones there, and the gear works, he uses the equipment track his ship's transponder....... failing that he tunes his PtP to home on his ship's transponder.....assuming he gets a fix on where it landed, or at least the direction it was headed, he goes and rents a speeder quicly and heads out there.....

Aiden tries the door, finding it opens without his even having to try. This seems odd as usually facilities like this are off limits to all but Spacelane Bureau personel and usually there's a security guard or two stationed outside the door or it's looked an a being needs the proper key. But then he figures Tatooine is a backwater nothing planet and security is probably lax.

Aiden steps inside to find the lights flickering on and off barely functioning. The interior is cast into an eriee gloom that makes the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.


"Can you believe some the callousnes of some organics, Master," Kaybee says as the droid bends over and fetches something it can clearly see on the floor with it's superior photoreceptors that Aiden can't because of the poor lighting. The whirring of it's sevromotors only seem to amplify the creepy atmosphere. "A perfectly good glowrod and they leave it laying around like it were some garbage. Perhaps someday you may have to.....

"Oh my."

Kaybee had stopped midsentence as he turned on the glow rod. In it's glow the body of the Twi'lek security officer can be seen not more than a three meters away. Aiden steps closer, instructing the droid to keep the light on the body. Without medical training he can't even begin to determine when the man died, but he suspects it couldn't have been more than an hour ago, probably less. The cause of death, however, is quite clear as the Tw'lek's throat has been slashed open.

Drawing his sidearm Aiden moves over the the stairwell and listens carefully for the sounds that whoever killed the guard could be coming down. Hearing nothing he cautiously moves up the stairs, motioning for Kaybee to follow. He hopes the glowrod may blind whoever long enough for him to get the drop on them. But he's not as prepared as he thinks for what comes next.

Entering the control room causes him to feel as if he's just stepped out onto a battlefield. Blood's splattered everywhere, with the brains of at least one controller splattered acorss his monitor after being shot in the back of the head. He barely catches himself before stepping on someone's dismembered hand. Monitoring equipment has either been shot up or smashed in. Several of the dead show clear signs of being stabbed by some kind of sword.


"Yeah Senoj, we just completed going through the databanks for this DB-84-B2 freighter of yours," a voice says, causing Aiden to spin around, pistol raised. He sees no one there, but a comm station becomes appaerent when Kaybee swings the glowrod in that direction. Also appaerent is the fact that someone destroyed the controls for the transmitter. "We can't find any freighter by that name. You'll probably want to send someone out to meet with her captain as soon as possible, over. It's possible they could be pirates or mercs if their docking a fighter with a freighter."

Kaybee sings the light around the room, finally coming to rest on the only working monitor in the room. It shows the location of all ships currently docked in the Anchorhead spaceport. The Eon Nomad being listed as being in Docking Bay 28.

"Master, according to this screen this DB-84-B2 is supposed to be in Docking Bay 30."
