| Darwin wasn't keeping up with his usual ragged appearance. He had decided that it was time to reveal to the rest of the galaxy who he really was. The Jedi were tired of the way the Empire kept treating every single sentient being in the galaxy. After a decade of deceiving a lot of people of his appearance, he had abandoned his smuggler image. Instead, he decided to wear a dark brown Jedi robes. The robes were retrieved by Darwin inside the Ossus Chapter House right after it was hit by the clones when Order 66 were enacted. The robes were folded cleanly inside one of the quarters, and he decided to take it with him as a memory for the Jedi Order. The Jedi felt that it was an appropriate time to open himself up, because this is going to be such a formal meeting with Shiva...or so he hoped. He wanted to use symbolism to the best use, and represent the entire Jedi Order to the best of his ability. Darwin decided to give his DH-17 blaster pistol to Kaylie sometime before he decided to change his appearance. He would eventually walk out of the quarters and walked toward the cockpit where he saw both Kaylie and Artie, his most trusted companions. Kaylie could see that Darwin was cleaned up. "Are we approaching the Aar system, Kay?" He spoke firmly as he kissed Kaylie's cheeks, leaning his left arm on the pilot chair Kaylie's sitting on and his right on the co-pilot and vacant chair. "This Shiva fella better be there. I kinda preached him about trust, and it would do us good to be able to finally fight back against the Empire."

| Kaylie sat in the cockpit of the Proclarush Taonas, the YT-1300 light freighter that they had bought back on Nar Shadda. She had her booted foot up on the dash of the console and a datapad in her hand that she was flipping through the latest Corsucanti fashion magazine on. The mechanic and pilot was hardly the kind of person that was very fashion-wise, nor did she need to be. Not as far out in space as they were, and especially not with what they were doing out there. Still, they were pretty. Lithe, beautiful models of all species graced the pages in gowns and suits of the finest silks, wools, and beyond. They wore earrings of gold and gems and were adorned with beautiful necklaces. A bleeping sound came from the nearby droid and Kaylie snapped out of it and looked at the little red and white droid. He reminded her, in shape, of a trashcan. And she felt for him about as much as she could feel for a trashcan...which was pretty much nothing. The two didn't always get along. "Thanks, Artie. I'm well aware that I ain't ever gonna look like that." She snapped at the hunk of tin. "Just kinda nice to daydream once and while, alright?" She turned her gaze back to the magazine for the moment. A few page turns later, she heard Darwin's boots on the metal flooring of the corridor that led to the cockpit. Quickly, Kaylie closed the magazine file so Dar wouldn't see, and she stuffed the datapad down into the compartment between her seat and one of the control panels so that she could get to it later when she wanted it. Artie let out a whistle and Kaylie returned Darwin's kisses before he backed up and leaned against the arm of her chair. "Woah...Dar....pretty bold fashion statement there babe." She said, and followed that with a low whistle. "Nothin' like paintin' a target right on ya...on us, actually." Then Kaylie joked with him and smirked. "Maybe we oughta get you a neon sign that says: 'Hey! I'm a Jedi!'" Artie bleeped his dissaproval and Kaylie sighed. "A joke, Artie. relax." After a moment, Kaylie smiled again and nodded. "I think he'll be there. We should be planetside in about....an hour. Maybe less." She said as she checked the screen on the console.

| Darwin simply chuckled when Kaylie was referring to his current fashion, "Well, we gotta show the Separatists that we are more than willing to take up arms against the Empire. That we are going to do as much as we can to return justice and freedom to the galaxy." He knew Artie would angrily beeped at Kaylie. Kaylie and Artie never gets along, which could get funny sometimes. It doesn't reach to a point where it would jeopardize their mission, though. The Jedi proceeded to sit down on the vacant chair, leaning his left arm on the left leg. "Sorry about that. Sometimes Artie doesn't get your sense of humor." He spoke to Kaylie just as Artie beeped angrily once again. "Hey, you'll get your moments. She'll gets hers. It's just that...she has hers this time around." Darwin grinned and looked at Kaylie, "We'd better request a landing clearance and land the ship as soon as possible. We don't want to miss the meeting with Shiva."

| Kay nodded. "Course. I've already got it though, we're just circling to land closer to the spot where we're meeting this guy. No worries." She smiled a little and glanced to Artie, who was bleeping again. "I know, I know...not too close....do you want to fly? Oh wait....no thumbs. Never mind." She rolled her eyes and looked to Darwin. "Well as long as you think wearing those is a good idea, I'll go with it. Just remember, my shootin' ain't that good yet, so I won't be able to protect you too well." She joked as she started the landing process. Moments later, she sat the Proclarush Taonas down gently just outside of a small town.

| "Don't worry about that. I can handle it when it comes down to that. I fought in the Clone Wars, remember? Besides, Artie there can help us out." Darwin would double check to make sure his lightsaber is attached to the belt. The Jedi got up and kissed Kaylie on the lips this time around. "Keep your eyes open, it could get rough really fast." Then he walked out of of the cockpit and headed straight for the landing ramp that either Kaylie or Artie would open. "Both of you...come with me. This is Hutt territory, so there could be bounty hunters around." After walking down the ramp with Kaylie and Artie following by closely, they'd head straight for a nearby bar. Shiva didn't exactly tell him where to meet, but he was kind of hoping it was a bar.

| Shiva had no intention of landing at Aar. He never went planetside unless it was at Rinn, and this was to be no exception. A Theta-class shuttle, Shiva's trademark greeting ship, emerged above Aar, just in time for its sensors to catch the freighter heading planetside. With little option to do otherwise, the shuttled followed suit. Ideally, the Jedi on-board would recognize the shuttle and assume that it was indeed Shiva's people, seeing as how the last meeting between Sky and Shiva's agents had been set up via a similar craft.

| Just as they were walking down the ramp, Artie beeped right away. The droid was telling him that Shiva's people were onboard a shuttle that were following their YT-1300 light freighter. "We'd better wait here then. It's probably better than to walk into a crowd that might try to capture me and bring me to the Empire for money." The Jedi would have Kaylie and Artie wait with him just outside their ship, and the ship were on a standby mode in case Shiva prefers to meet in space. It's probably unlikely seeing that the shuttle had to follow them, though. Darwin looked at Ksylie and then Artie. He was hoping that this meeting would go well.

| Once the Theta landed nearby the larger vessel, it would become obvious that Shiva was not on-board. With the dropping of the ramp, a man in obviously scavenged Clone Wars-era armor emerged and waved the pair over. "Hey, get on quick. We are taking you to meet with Shiva. We'll return you to your hip afterward." Shiva was a careful man after all. He did not tend to meet people directly face to face.

| Darwin raised his eyebrows at the two, then looked back to the guy calling to him. The Jedi wondered if he or the clones under his command had fought against this man during the Clone Wars. He'd shake the thought off. It was a habit. When you're in a war with someone else, you tend to think of that person as an enemy for the rest of your life. He had let out a sigh before deciding to walk toward the Theta. Kaylie and Artie would follow, as the three of them walked up the ramp. Darwin may be a Jedi veteran of the Clone Wars, but it's always good to have some help in Kaylie and Artie should something bad happen in meeting up with Shiva. They proceeded to enter the shuttle, waiting for it to take them to the shadowy guy.

| Once on board, the man would take the co-pilot's seat, opposite another of Shiva's men. Talking quietly among themselves, the pair took off, leaving the freighter and Aar behind as they headed for the rendezvous just outside of Dosuun. It would be a quick rendezvous that would allow the Jedi to speak to Shiva without the pair having anything to worry about.

| Darwin and Kaylie decided to take a seat next to each other, with Artie besides them. They would just wait for Shiva's men to take them to Shiva himself. Darwin wasn't going to speak unless it was the big man himself. The Jedi would look at the men in control of the shuttle, wondering what it is that they were talking about. He placed one of his hands on the lightsaber hilt, but didn't take it out. It was a precaution, besides old habit die hard. Sometimes he forget that the Separatists weren't the real enemy here.

| It was a brie re-emergence outside of Dosuun. They had barely arrived when the Sword of Justice reverted to realspace nearby. The Munificent made its jump a few minutes later to hyperspace, the Theta having docked with it and allowing its passengers to disembark aboard the vessel. The men who had picked up the Jedi and his companions would silently usher them into a room where they could wait. It was a comfortable room filled with food and drink so that they would not lack for creature comforts.

| Kaylie had gone along with Darwin quietly, trusting that the Jedi knew what he was doing. she really had no choice but to trust him. once they were alone in the room, she turned to him. "How do you know this isn't a trap?" she asked quietly. No, their weapons hadn't been taken, but that did not mean trust, and it did not mean that they were safe.

| Darwin and Kaylie, along with Artie, was escorted to the room with all the food and drinks. "Well, that's why we aren't going to eat and drink. Besides, we won't know until this Shiva fella shows up." The Jedi looked around, "The thing is, I've never even heard of this Shiva guy during the Clone Wars. So either he joined the Separatists after the war or he was one of those special ops guy. Either way, we'll find out." The Jedi shrugged as Artie beeped in agreement. He knew they were going to wait until Shiva shows up so that they can find out for sure whether this was a trap or not.

| The thud of booted feet came from outside the door: feet with a distinctive metallic ring. Droids. The door to the conference room swung open, admitting no less than six MagnaGuards and a black-robed man who could be none other than Shiva. He motioned for his guests to continue sitting and remained standing himself. "Greetings and welcome to my humble home. It is my pleasure to bring you aboard. That being said, what can I do for you Mr. Sky?"
