| Ren makes one more leap swiftly and settles down on a rooftop, taking a crouched positon again. He lifts his gaze only for a brief moment to the loud explosion. Ren shrugs this was tatooine of course, he narrows his eyes below watching stormtroopers in pursuit of someone or someones in the alleys. Not like he knew what was going on, it made Ren think what had bought him to tatooine. Perhaps it was only to observe what was happening on the planet. To learn to gain knowledge by watching and listening. He wasn't going to interfere he thought to himself with what ever was going on. Tho Ren's own curiosity always got the better of him, he felt slightly restless where he was now crouched, he takes a deep breath and continues to watch the alleys below for now.

| Indeed, the Jedi Master was little too fast for Mira and the stormtroopers to catch up. They aren't the ones to use the Force, after all. The Inquisitor figures he stood the best chance at catching the fugitive. However, every time he had a chance at catching the Jedi, the man disappeared. By now, Animus was starting to get an idea of how experienced this fugitive is. Perhaps he had fought in the Clone Wars...just like Animus had. There were blasterfire before, and corpses after. Every single time this happened when he got to a scene that led him closer and closer to the Jedi Master.
Then an explosion occurred, and this didn't sound really close. But it was enough to get his attention for a brief moment. Coincidence? No such thing. If there's one thing he learned from both light and dark sides of the Force, there's no such thing like coincidences or lucks. This had to be related to the Jedi somehow, even if it's loosely related. He had let out a heavy sigh, having the feeling that things were getting out of control. Despite all that, he wasn't about to give up. Especially not when the Inquisitor is this close to being face-to-face with this Jedi Master that has suddenly became an expert of chaos.
The dark jedi suddenly refocuses himself on the matter at hand. He heard Mira's voice from a distance, but it was an indication she was doing her best to keep things under control. Animus decided to leave everything else to her responsibility, and concentrate on the Jedi Master. Granted, this isn't the Jedi that the Grand Vizier had sent him looking for. But, this would be a huge bonus not only for the Inquisitorus in general. Also, this is going to be a room of growth for Animus because he would have finally faced a Jedi Master. The lightsaber was still shining off its red glow, as the dark jedi continues to press his pursuit around every corner that goes through every alleyway. Hopefully, the Inquisitor would be able to catch up.

| Just as the Inquisitor's sense of direction threatened to flee him, as he sprinted around one last corner, past a vaporator, and through an open door at the end of a confined earthen path winding its way behind Mos Eisley's humblest homes, Animus would at last find who he was looking for. He would find himself in what appeared to be a mechanic's garage, empty but for a derelict Skyhopper with no wings and an X-34 landspeeder, its hood open and tools strewn about. Here and there, too, a Jawa could be seen running out through the open door on the other side of the garage, which looked out upon the endless sands of Dantooine in the distance. Standing in the middle of this, breathing hard, was a 70-year-old man. His boots and robe were sullied with sand and blood, his features were weathered, and his expression seemed as if it could cool the entire planet. He glared at Animus, his lightsaber in his hand, deactivated.
The back door to the garage, through which Animus had come, closed behind him. It would dawn on him, no doubt, that he was now alone with Kane, who, despite being the prey, had somehow brought the predator onto ground of his choosing. Surely, the other Imperials were far behind, and probably weren't sure where Kane and Animus had even gone. Animus would feel—probably too late—a tug on the comlink in his hand as Kane used the Force to pull it to him. "Trevor Fenn," he said to Animus, his voice deep and untroubled by the stormtroopers he had so gruesomely murdered (or the civilians he'd wounded, for that matter). "I always said you'd never make a good Jedi. I was right." He ignited his lightsaber once more, the azure blade blazing to life.
Mira, meanwhile, would be confronted with a problem. Not simply the explosion, or that Animus had dropped off the grid, but now a speeder crash, too. The local Imperial commander would no doubt inform her that aside from his (few) stormtroopers, Mos Eisley had no security. And, moreover, that his experience in Mos Eisley taught him that confusion and chaos in this wretched city would mean looting too, which would also require the attention of his stormtroopers.
As for Caden, he would find what he was looking for in good time, but not yet.

| While trying to catch up with the Jedi Master, little did he realize he was walking into a trap. The Jedi had sprung Animus' trap, and used his own to lure the Inquisitor. Animus had stumbled into what appears to be a garage that a mechanic would normally own. There was a Skyhopper with no wings and an X-34 landspeeder. From the looks of things, both vehicles probably weren't functional at their best. Then he noticed a Jawa running out of the garage to save his own hide. At least this Jawa was smart not to bite off more than he could chew. There was a powerful aura ringing in the Force, and it was right in front of him. Indeed, it was in form of an old man. An old and powerful Jedi Master, that is.
Animus could hear the old man panting, and he had noticed the blood covering the robe of the man standing across from the Inquisitor. Clearly, it had come from the deceased stormtroopers that had tried to subdue this Jedi. The Jedi Master certainly was familiar with the dark jedi, with that stern expression of his. The garage door closed behind him, the room starting to darken a little bit. Indeed, it had occurred to him that he was alone. Thus, it had come upon himself to stop the Jedi Master.
He had felt the tug on his belt, the comlink were being taken away. Animus had never intended to use the comlink anyway. Even if he had, he probably wouldn't have had enough time to speak before the Jedi comes attacking him. The dark jedi knew better than to let his own guard down. The red glow from his lightsaber had brightened up a bit, due to the "diminess" of light. The next moment had confirmed Animus' suspicions that the Master had knew him. The Jedi spoke his name. The dark jedi grinned evilly, "How nice of you to mention him, Jedi." Referring to the name the Jedi had called him. "He died a long time ago."
The Inquisitor bent his knees a little bit, shifted his footing to get a comfortable feeling of the ground. Both of his hands would be holding the lightsaber firmly, of which was held up above his head. "By the way, you don't make a good Jedi neither." In a way, Animus was right. Slaughtering the stormtroopers were understandable, but creating an explosion of which puts the civilians in harm is entirely another meaning. Instead of making the first move, he opted to let the old man make his move. He would wait for the duel to begin.

| Joe had a large discussion not with Jabba as he first thought but with Zero the hutt one of the main bosses on this desert planet his negociations have paid off for him and tyler their former lives are no more they have new identies and they are now servents to Zero the hutt and to the entire hutt organization they will do bounties for the hutts little things just for the start to make sure they have money in both their pockets it will be an exellent rouse for them as the Empire will not be seeking them out they can live their lives out as Bounty Hunters until the time is right to make an alliegence to over throw the Galactic Empire but that for him is long time away for now he and tyler will do the bidding of Zero the Hutt and all the other hutt gangsters for a secure position in the galaxy. Taking small bounties is what they are doing getting pay from other dealers here on tattooine as well as other weapon dealers on Malastare.
Joe walks out of the room and looks at tyler with a big smileacross his face he pats his friend on his shoulder and they then leave the confinds of the palace well not really a palace more like a few buildings built along side each other smaller shacks indeed a small fortress that houses gangsters traders and other bounty hunters some who he has heard of when he was a Jedi Knight fighting wars now he has a new disguise a new life and one that will work for this new era which is controlled by the Empire.
As they make it to their gunship he realizes it has been almost a full month in struggling negociations with that gangster his gunship needs a tuning but they have a job to do to go to Malastare and get money from Marcus Marek who owes a great deal of coinage as well as supplies for Zero it will pay them both well twenty-four thousand its a high target one that they are well enough to take as he presses his hand alongside the control panel the ramp lowers and he watches as tyler walks up the ramp he then follows as he makes it to the cockpit a month of th engines being powered down is no good it will take a while for the gunship to heat up for the engines to run at full capasity as he marks down the cordinates for malastare its an older computer and it will take a few minutes to warm up as well as he sits beside tyler who hasnt said one word since coming to tatooine much perhaps he has nothing to say at all.
But Joe then realizes that their might be a Imperial presence as they leave the system he will have to act cool it has been a month but he knows they are still fugitives of the empire so this new indenity had better work for them to hide all remmence of their former lives are well tucked away both he and tyler must cease all force abilities for them to survive a hard thing but when it comes to their lives it must be this way a bitter struggle of their own humanity, the engines are warm he takes the controls and lifts his gunship off the sand as the landing gear raises up and they are finally leaving tatooine after being hear for almost seven long months as they enter the sky and then through to the atmosphere he notices two Imperial class star destroyers circling the the orbit of Tatooine the imperial presnece is looming perhaps for him and tyler their was more Jedi on tattooine lurking int he darkness then he first realized, the calculations are set as they pass through the blockcade he presses the right control near his right hand and the gunship powers up then with a stiff jolt as they jump into lightspeed as their lives will take a new destiny.

| Castor was still working on locating the conflicting powers of the Force. It seemed as if the light and dark were now overlapping; a sure sign they were quite close. Vax cursed softly under his breath and sped onwards, bent on locating the Jedi.

| "No," Kane said, dropping Fenn's comlink onto the ground, "He dies today." He began a slow, even leisurely advance toward Animus, crushing the comlink under his boot as he did so. Even at his age, he was larger than Animus and more powerfully built, and there was violence in his eyes as he drew nearer, his lightsaber in hand. He felt no need to defend himself from the Inquisitor's taunts—as far as Animus was concerned, obviously, Kane hadn't behaved as a Jedi should. But Kane disagreed; a Jedi is as strong as ten men, is he not? And as wise as ten, too? Then why, Kane would ask, is a Jedi's life not worth the lives of ten—or more—'ordinary' men? Indeed, he had no use for 'ordinary' men or women and didn't hesitate to use them as means to his ends. That's how Palpatine and his Empire would be defeated, and replaced with a new Jedi Council more prudent and principled than the old. He knew this would happen, he had seen it in the vision that dogged his dreams during his long, despondent exile.
First, he needed to dispose of Animus. The Inquisitor was nothing to him, a small obstacle in a far greater path. Kane had no interest in 'redeeming' him. Like his comlink, he would be crushed. He held his lightsaber vertically, in both hands. As soon as he was near enough to Animus, he shoved it forward with no particular target in mind—rather, he sought to put Animus on the defensive and force him into what's commonly known as a "saber lock." Of course, if he didn't try to block it, it would only bisect most of his head and chest.

| A whole month in negociations with a slug like creature with a name like Zero who wasn't this Jabba he first thought it was and disguise he must wear now the new identifies they both have it would have been easier to remain hidden on Lehon the Empire wouldn't dare come near the planet they had a natural food and water supply, but no rashions and simulated water for the rest of there lives. Tyler then notices from the massive door Joe walking outwards with a large smile he gets the jist of what took him a month within the confinds of the room on the datastream pad a contract of the services to the Hutt's organization he shakes his head and follows Joe as they walk outside through the complex until reaching their gunship it has taken a sand blasted beating but its still intact its a corrillian beast a gunship that has parts within it from the shell of Drace's V-wings the sacrifice had to be made to insure their survival. Added (26 Jun 2011, 1:17 PM)
---------------------------------------------
(Add-on)
But Tyler sits down in the cockpit as Joe enters as well he has calibrated the corodinates for Malastare, Malastare a planet once in league with the commerce guilds and with the trade federation before and during the clone wars he hasn't been there for a while now so going back to get debts that traders have with this Zero the Hutt cant be all that they will be doing, what happened too the rescue of the other Jedi spread throughout the galaxy this all doesn't make any sense perhaps in time it will he opens his eyes the engines are heated he takes the stick and lifts up from off the sand as they pass through the clouds through the atmosphere he notices the Imperial Blockade he watches as Joe clicks first the cloaking device as they disappear from the Imperial scans and once there at a safe distance he himself engages the jump to their new lives and to there first assignment tracking down debt owers on Malastare.

| Obviously, if he didn't block it, he would be dead. But that isn't the only option being forced upon the dark jedi. Sure, the old man was bigger and most likely stronger. He, most likely, has much more experience on his side. However, to even the odds a little bit, the Inquisitor would have to fight smarter and rely on his speed to get around the Jedi Master if he is going to have a chance at snatching the gold trophy and bring it to the Order of the Sith Lords to earn their attention. Animus decided to gamble since the Jedi intend on targeting his head and chest.
The dark jedi immediately deactivated his lightsaber, letting his guard down for a minute. Indeed, that probably isn't the wisest move with an angry Jedi in front of him. Nevertheless, Animus had something in mind. He bent down just in time to for the lightsaber to go over his head, and rolled onto the floor. Animus continued to roll on the floor until he stopped by taking a knee on the ground, behind the old man's back. That was the moment he pointed the hilt, and activated the red mean of light toward the Jedi's back. If the old man cannot respond in time, he'd most likely be stabbed into the back.
