The Gathering Force II-II

OOC Date: October 21, 2018
Location: Kafrene
Participants: Jedi Order: Jax Greystorm and Yuun

Assuming Rey had informed the rest of the team about Zek and his debt to the Casino known as the Cred Grab here in Hell's Corner, a place where seven different alleyways converged to a town square of sorts. It was dirty and filthy. Zek had identified as Force Sensative and met his match is the Casino with both Zan and Rey. He gave them the address to their appartment block and beckoned them to lave before he or anyone else got hurt. The girls listened and retreated. Now that a day had passed and it was towards the hours when the Casino's were closed or light staffed the group of Jedi had decided to check out this Apartment block. Elrych was a little drained so stayed behind incase they needed back up. It was just Yuun and Jax for the time being.

With the information passed on from Rey and Zan, Jax and Yuun had made their way to Zek's appartment. The Corellian jedi didn't look the part as he was wearing the Scout armor of the Wayward's guild. He looks over to Yuun, "Keep an eye out." Then turning back he reaches up to rap on the door with his Knuckles.

Yuun is dressed in street clothes, long shorts, boots, along with a jacket and utility belt. Having kept it simple and to keep their identity unknown, he does look around keeping an eye on things. He isn't going to let anyone get the drop on them, he wants to do a better job on these missions.

There is a pause after Jax wraps his knuckles on the door. If the two of them took a moment to sense around they wouldn't pick up anything from a quick check, and nothing when Zek comes to the door and opens it. "Ah... yeah?" The twenty something asks. He had only met Zan and Rey who had said they were leaving the station as soon as work on their ship was done. He looks to Yuun and Jax with curiosity.

"Zeeeeeek" comes a female voice from inside in a sing song fashion. "Who is that? Zeeeeeek."

Jax offers an easy enough smile as the door opens, he doesn't feel anything from the 20 somthing year old at the moment, "Names Jax and this is Yuun. We're friend of a pair of ladies you talked to yesterday. If you got a moment we'd like to visit with you."

Quirking a brow up as he hears the female voice, still Yuun moves closer and just continues to watch out before looking towards the two. Yuun waves, "Hello." he says as he moves towards the two of them.

Zek narrows his eyes a bit, slightly confused. "Friends? They didn't..." The lady in the back yells again. "ZEEEEEK WHO IS IT, Close that door if they're gone you're letting the air out!"

Zek rolls his eyes, "Just come inside..." He turns and starts into the apartment. "Mom... we have guests." He looks back to the two, "Close the door behind you..."

Zek's mother isn't really Zek's mother. It's a droid on one wheel dressed in a maids languire outfit. "Oh deer, have you brought in strays again?" She looks over the two Jedi then looks to Zek.

Jax grins, "Our intentions are good." Then he raises his hands are open and bare no weapons. Then he steps into the apartment and motioning for Yuun to follow him. Jax guards his expression as he sees the droid and offers a nod, "Ma'am." Then he looks around the place, "Thank you Zek."

Yuun also steps through, hands up no weapons in hand, he still looks to Zek for a long moment. Once he is inside the apartment and as they move along, he smiles hen he hears Zeks mom, "Hello." he says politely.

Zek looks to the two Jedi as he takes a seat on a broken down and patched up sofa. There's a Holo-terminal playing some sports. 'Mother' rolls her way back into the kitchen after Zek says something to her in a weird language. Something perhaps native to the people here on Kafrene. "Sorry... she's not my real mother. My dad built her after she died and well... you know men get lonely sometimes and when you're forced to work for the Casino's it just dosn't help not to have anyone to look after your kid." He shrugs. "So what brings you to visit. I honestly didn't think I'd see... what was her name. The one with the dark eyes and the veil. Oh she's the girl of my dreams, I'll tell ya."

Jax shakes his head, "You're not the only to say that about either of the young ladies, but I am not here to match maker." He says loosly crossing his arms and taking a relaxed stance. "Is it safe to speak freely here and not be heard?"

Yuun doesn't say anything at all, everyone has their own kinks and what not. Still Yuun just looks around watching and taking in everything he sees as he makes sure they are alone. He didn't want ot have an issue where they are walking into a trap.

Zek frowns, "Oh... well. Give her my best anyways." He rubs the back of his head, "Yeah there's no bugs in here. Fiz is smart but he's not /that/ smart. Or worried about us for that matter I guess. Besides I check, just to be sure." He looks to Yuun, "He's quiet... he like your butler or something?"

"More like my studnet. He's free to speak and will when he has soemthing to add to conversation." THe Corellian jedi says and walks around, "I will though you may have a chance to speak to her in the future. The force is strong with you and it's strong here. THe Casino has you and the others in this neighborhood under there thumb, I gathering."

Yuun feeling things are ok, he looks back to Zek. He doesn't have anything to say at the moment, he just tries to make sure things are alright. For now Jax is doing a good job of the conversation, so for now the student will just keep quiet.

Zek nods, "Yeah. My family, a couple others in this block. They use those with the gift to win more for the Casino, you know? Somehow we got in their debt. I don't remember how. Dad took a loan or something but... He was like me. They killed Mom when he acted up... Then they killed him when they found out about me." He looks away and then clears his throat. "I don't know what you or her think you can do for me. I'm stuck here. So are the others. They're too powerful."

Jax strokes his beard in thought, "Intresting." Jax shakes his head, "When the force is your ally, there is many things you can accomplish that those without it cannot. So no you are not stuck as a prisoner here. If I could promise the improbable and offer to get you and the others away from the casino. What would I be facing and how many people would I need to get off the station?"

Zek studies Jax for a moment, "About Forty if you include their families... and we can't just leave. The Elders would have to make the choice. You may convince me but that only goes so far." He stands then and moves over into the other room. He removes a carpet and opens a trap door that's there. "Come on... I'll call them to."

Jax stops for a moment staring at the trap door. He casts an eye back at Yuun and offers the young man a smile, "Stay here a moment if you like. Then when you are ready follow down." Then Jax moves to follow Zek down the trap door, "Sounds like a wise plan. I'm more than willing to meet with your elders."

Yuun doesn't take long, he moves down the trap door with the others, feeling there is no danger he continues down. "I'm good." he calls towards Jax and Zak. "Where are we going?" he asks having slightly tuned out just a little bit.

Zek nods to Jax before looking to Yuun, "You'll see." Down the Rabbit hole they go. A set of stairs into a tunnel where all the piping runs for the entire apartment complex. They were like flats, two or three story houses stacked right next to each other. Deeper and Deeper they go into the Darkness until they enter a chamber. There is a panel desk there with chiars. Zek turns to his followers, "Wait here. I must call the others." And then he moves to the desk and presses a button. Moments later people start to funnel in. Young and old alike, taking seats in the chamber. All older people take seats at the council desk. "What is it now, Zek?" Says a black man with a deep and tired voice. "I brought Jedi... or I think they're Jedi. To help us all." There are whispers and surprised sounds from the crowd.

Jax looks back up to Yuun, "To meet the elders of this community." Jax says as they go down the meeting area below, "Keep you're wits about you and if there is something you see or like to add jump in."

As Zek introduces them, Jax steps forward dressed not as a jedi or even carrying a lightsaber. Jax steps forward, "I am Jax Greystorm and this is my student Yuun." He gestures to the other man, "We've heard stories of those that can touch the force needing help escaping this space station. We're here to help."

Yuun nods his head as he is told of what they are going to be doing. Following behind the two men, Yuun looks to those who are now gathered here and as they speak, he smiles. "Hello I'm Yuun." he says as he looks to the Elders and those who are gathered here. He takes a moment to just study everyone for a moment, trying to see who all is here.

One of the more younger and well groomed Counsilors scoffs, "You're here to help. I'm not sure what help we need. We have food, rotection from the First Order, and jobs. Houses. What more can we ask for?" Zek steps forward, "Screw you Tano, you're a no good rat. Nall and Jan went missing last week after you found them trying to escape. We all know you're Fiz's little play thing. Him and his gang pay you."

"How DARE YOU!" Says Tano as he stands in apparent Richious Indignation.

"Silence!" Says the Coucil leader. "We and our people have lived here in secret for a generation or more. We avoided the empire, we'll Avoid the First Order. What makes you so different. The last Jedi were wiped from History and now you think the same won't eventually happen to you? We may not be free anymore since Fizz figured out our secret but it's better than getting killed trying to move us all."

"Or forced to Join Ren and his order..." Says one person in the crowd.

"Yes the jedi have been wiped out before by the dark side. I cannot promise that it won't happen again but it's the duty of us that have not fallen to the dark to stand up against the dark side. So we must always rise up. " He looks around for a moment, "But I did not come to debate the virtures of the order. I came to speak about keeping this community safe." He gestures with a hand at every one here. "If the jedi have came to find you that means word has spread that you are here. Sooner or later Ren and the FIrst Order will arrive. Then how safe will you be then. There will be risk in the move, but what if I offered you a place that was safe from the criminals here and from the order. A place where you life in place and if so chose study the force."

Yuun stands not far from where Jax is. He studies the situation for the moment listening to Zek and Tano. He finds this interesting though it's troublesome someone knows already about them. Than as the Elder speaks up and Jax replies, Yuun allows himself to center and relax. Not allowing what little tension there is to get to him. For now he waits just taking a moment to hear the people out.

The head Councilor looks like he's about to respond but an older women with grey hair stands, "I call for a referendum. We vote here and now. Al of use." The Elder grumbles and shakes his head, "Is the motion seconded by another Council Member." There is silence for a moment before another member who's voice is hardly audible. "Aye..." The head elder looks towards his peer before banging a gavel on the table. "Motion carried the vote shall move to the floor. All those in Favor of going with this strapping young lad to this new found paradise say Aye." Tthere's a number of them who say Aye, almost the whole room. "Those against, nay?" Tano and the old man both say nay along with some other. There is a grumble and eye roll form Tano before the gavel is smacked again. "The Aye's have it... let's hear your plan, Jedi."

"I will be honest, I have only an inkling of a plan. You know this space station better than I do and the challenges that we will face better than I. So I have came to hammer out a plan. The way I see it there are a number of us that have once been smugglers in the order. During one of the casinos down time and people are here. If we were to make our way through the back ways to the freighters. We might be able to slip away unnoticed and to the ships. Then take different routes. It is a danger but that way maybe we can slip away before they've noticed your gone." He looks to Yuun. "Yuun, You lived on Coruscant, do you have any ideas on how we can slip through the maze and mass of people unseen?"

Yuun listens to the plan and is happy that the people decided to come with them, when asked. It would be a good idea to have a time as to when we want to do this. I would say give it a day at least maybe two to see how things operate along with working with them." he says as he moves closer. "All of this will count on everything and everyone working as if this is just normal time. Those of you who are known and are friends with the people who know your secret and wanting to keep you here to not let this slip." he states.

Taking a moment to himself, "Now with this being a space station, there are probably quiet a few access ways that no one really watches also security would probably be taxed near those areas. So I would suggests we scout those areas and from there find the fastest route to the hangers where the freighters will be. From there during the last shift change during one of the busier times, we slip out. Its hard to keep watch over everyone at every minute. That would be our best bet. But all of this is counting on everyone trusting one another and no information being leaked." he states not singling anyone out.

Zek looks to Yuun and Jax, "Sure we can get them through that way." He looks towards Tano, "And Trust might be an issue for some." He looks to the Council, "If we're to do this, why don't we smuggle the ones who don't have the gift out first. Little by little while we keep up appearances. Then, the Fifteen or so of us that have it, we go last all at once." The old man look to Jax, "Well. Does that sound good?"

"Sound plan Yuun." Jax looks to Zek, "That would be acceptable. Could we get these people away without notice. The key to this mission is not being noticed." Jax looks to Tano, "And if you do not want to go, as far as we are concerned you can stay. If you have the talent you will be in that much more of a demand. Though I would offer you a chance to come."

Yuun nods his head, "Thank you." he says simply. Though Jax idea for those who don't want to go, should stay. He nods his head, "We will not make you do something you don't want to do. That is not our intent, but to be used because of your ability to use the Force only helps the people your staying for." he says as he looks to everyone. "If you leave and able to use the Force, like my Senior has said, gives you the ability to start anew and live how you wish to live." he says simply just re-iterating what Jax said earlier. Yuun goes quiet for now.

The Elder raises the gavel and bangs it against the table before Tano can say anything in responce. "It is settled then. We will start this time tomorrow. One family at a time. Zek will help you plan your route. Better get to work. The rest of you pack what you can and pack light. Be ready to go and get some rest." The families and council members start to filter out.
