| After Darwin had send in the landing clearance, he had let out a sigh of relief. The Jedi had barely escaped the Imperials once. He didn't need for it to happen again. Apparently, Havoc had been tampering with the ID signature of the ship. Their ship were currently registered to the Government of Dantooine. Which made the Jedi wonder, whether Havoc was well connected or not. Granted, Dantooine has a small population and a small government. It still instill the thought of Havoc forming an alliance with their government inside his head. He pushed the thought out, as it might be a good thing to have a government side with you for once.
The famed Jedi Knight was right, Darwin needed to relax. He nodded in agreement, inhaling the air in and out to get himself to relax. In addition to that, he had called in the light aura of the Force to calm himself down. Thereafter, the landing clearance was granted. The YT-1300 light freighter were wobbling a little bit, but he had managed to help Havoc pilot the vessel. They had eventually landed onto the docking bay number two safely. The Jedi had revved the engines down, just as Artie had come upon in front of him and beeping loudly. "No, you stay with the ship." He ordered the astromech droid.
Darwin looked at Havoc, about to leave the cockpit. "I think Kaylie's the best person to find all the necessary parts for the ship. But I'm not sure if she's in the best shape to travel. Would you care to join me?" He asked, kindly offering the Jedi Knight to join him in the quest to find the parts...

| Kaylie was holding onto something near to the landing ramp when the ship finally touched down. To say the ride had been rough was an understatement, especially for someone who didn't heal as fast as the Jedi did. Even with the Force assisted healing from Havoc. As soon as the ship landed, she lowered the ramp and darted off of the ship so that she could look at the damage beneath while it was up on its landing gears.
She had a datapad in hand that already had a list of needed parts, and she was adding to it quickly. "Son of a....really?!" She exclaimed as a part dropped right off into her hand. "Piece of junk...." She grumbled as she emerged and tossed thebroken part up the ramp and into the cargo hold, likely flinging it blindly at one of the Jedi. The girl dropped down onto the ramp and looked at her list for a moment. This wasn't going to be easy.

| (Jesus.... my deepest apologies for this.)
[-"Damage was everywhere. The walker's legs weren't moving, and the enemy was on us. The next best thing to do... scrap it for parts".-]
The ship barely managed to land without separating into millions of parts. As the ship came to a halt, Havoc released his hands from the controls and leaned back in the pilot's chair. It was a very rough ride. Everyone thought the bumps were bad, try having to pilot it. Even with Havoc tapped into the force to give him additional strength, it was still a pain in the butt to keep it under control, regardless that every sensor was beeping at him. With the ship snugly in the station, the Jedi rose to his feet and looked out the viewport. "I hope she can work magic... our welcome won't be warm for long..." He muttered to himself as he followed Darwin out of the vessel. Looking at the underbelly of the vessel, he could only help but smirk. "We're better off selling this thing for junk and then using that money to buy a new ship... a scrapped ship from a Dantooine Senator may give us a little more..." Smirking, he nodded some.
"We need to remain vigilant. Anyone and their mothers will be here and two Jedi walking around this planet will no doubt point us out... we are on the Outer Rim, a planet in the hands of the Empire... one of the few..." Flipping his hood up, Havoc glanced down at his holowatch. "Kaylie... do what you can... just be ready to make a very quick exit... do whatever the cost... and take it easy..." Himself and Darwin would start to walk away. "You've had somewhat of a rough experience." With that said, with the command of the Force, Havoc would successfully mask his signature.

| Darwin would get off the chair, escorting Havoc out of the damaged YT-1300. He decided to flip his hood up as well, and nodded at Havoc's advice. "Kay, he's right. Take it easy, and do what you can to repair the ship in case we do need to leave. Good luck, Kay." He put his left hand on the hilt for a moment to make sure it was there, and indeed it was. Kaylie and Darwin had run into the Imperials before Vendaxa, and they probably will on Romar. Now that their trial are hot to the Empire, he wonders how long they would have to keep on running until they catches up to them. Maybe it's time to find some allies, but not when they're on Romar.
The priority is to find a new ship and leave Romar. Darwin started to walk away with Havoc, wondering if leaving Kaylie alone was a good idea.

| Kaylie watched them walk away for a moment, having been left with her "orders" from both of the Jedi. With a roll of her eyes, she shook her head and trudged up the ramp to grab her toolbox. There was no fixing the mess from the crash, she suspected, without a lot of time and money. Idly, she wondered what the point of fixing the ship up was, if they were just planning on selling it for scrap. Either way, fussing with it gave her something do to while they wandered through the city.
"Take it easy, Kay....but get the ship space-worthy all by yourself again...." She grumbled to herself rather sarcastically. It wasn't that she minded working on the ship or being left alone, she just still felt a little off. And also, she felt uneasy about something, though she wasn't really sure what it was.

As they proceeded away from the ship, Havoc nodded his head. "Remember, this is an Imperial planet... no sudden movements if cornered... no public displays that we are Jedi. We risk killing Kaylie if we are discovered..." The Jedi would mutter to Darwin. Sure he loved to get into fights and he would no doubt be forced to eat his own words sooner or later... but for the time being he showed like he was responsible enough to lead. "Our current task at hand it to get Kaylie what she needs and then get off planet as soon as possible... so be on the lookout." The force would no doubt be their strongest ally at the moment... and their greatest enemy too.

| "Then I suggest we move as quick as possible...with some discretion, of course." The Jedi spoke in a firm tone. Havoc was right. Kaylie would be harmed if they are discovered as a pair of Jedi fugitives. Which means they probably can't use mind tricks to get what they want. They'd probably have to get off the planet the old-fashioned way: with credits. Perhaps there is someone that is at least Jedi-friendly, but time of searching for the allies is not now. Their primary objective is to get parts and then get off the planet with the new parts in place.
"To avoid attention, perhaps we should try one of the smaller dealerships. In my experience, they are more likely to be flexible with prices." Less of a reputation a place has, the news of two Jedi walking on their streets would travel less. At least, that's what he had learned.

| There wasn't a whole lot Kaylie could do until she received at least some parts. For the moment though, she worked on reattaching metal to the underside of the ship. Maybe it wasn't salvageable, maybe it was. It could take weeks to repair. Especially by herself.
((Just skip me until you guys get back- there isn't a whole lot I can do))

Nodding in agreement, Havoc continued to walk. "Agreed, however don't act so interested in the parts we need... the smaller dealerships will then hint onto it and then make us jump through hoops to get it." Havoc grinned a little. More or less he would make them jump through hoops... with his foot.

| The Jedi chuckled lightly, "Oh, of course. I don't intend on drooling over a hyperdrive motivator." Darwin kept looking left and right with some discretion, looking for a right dealership to strike a deal with. He was hoping that they would be able to get the parts before someone recognize they were Jedi Knights...well, a Knight and a Padawan. Rank doesn't really matter nowadays, what matters is that the survival of the Jedi Code must remain intact.
After some time of walking, he'd spot a huge advertising sign in Galactic Basic. Darwin raised his eyebrows and looked at Havoc, "What do you think?"

| "Tell you what, Darwin." Havoc commented as his eyes met the sign, causing him to smirk a little. "We both will walk in together, and if someone notices us or start shooting at us... we fight back?" The Jedi would smirk devilishly as he would start walking ahead of Darwin towards this shop, following where the arrow was pointing to. Behind the senior out of the two (looks did count after all) Havoc would lead by example as his masters did and would attempt to broker this deal with whoever owned the sign. Plus in a way, Havoc did hope that someone would start shooting at him... it had been way to long since the Jedi used his lightsaber for any good.

| The Jedi simply shrugged at Havoc, "Why not? It's not like this is the first time for both of us." Darwin would follow Havoc, heading toward the shop. It was better not to attract unwanted attention, otherwise they'd be faced with endless waves of people with guns shooting at them. Besides, it wouldn't do Kaylie any good if they got in trouble. "Just don't piss someone off." Darwin knew that someone with Havoc's reputation had a tendency to get into unnecessary troubles.

| Just as Darwin spoke, Havoc would stop dead center probably quick enough to cause Darwin to bump into him. "Darwin... let me explain something to you. Havoc would stance himself as if he were lecturing someone. "I don't piss people off... I piss on them, that is what I do. Am I a Jedi? Sure. Do I follow the code? Questionable. The fact of the matter..." He would grow a little quiet as he leaned in a little bit. "When it comes to surviving... you do whatever it takes to keep your life and no lose anything... but when you have nothing to lose... it makes things that much more easier." Winking at him, he leaned back and straightened himself out. "Now then... since you apparently like walking into men... do me a favor and step off slightly to my right please." Havoc smirked as he walked into the shop. Walking over to the counter, he signaled the owner. "You there!" Said Havoc. "The King of... um... Acherin demands your attention!" Pointing towards Darwin.

| Indeed, Darwin had bumped into Havoc. He'd cross his arms and let out a light sigh. The Jedi felt a lecture coming on. He knew it all too well during his time on Coruscant and when he was with his friend Jace during his tenure in the Clone Wars. Surprisingly, it was refreshing for a change. But it could get annoying pretty fast if this was going to happen frequently in the future. Then the next thing Darwin did was rolling his eyes at Havoc's joke before moving to his right. The Jedi didn't know he was being "escorted" by Havoc until they walked into the shop.
It had caught Darwin off guard that the famed Jedi referred him as the King of Acherin, but he didn't lose his composure. He changed his face expression to make himself look furious. Now he just need to talk like a furious King. Darwin would strut over to the counter, not making an eye contact with the owner. "My ship was hit by a band of pirates! I need parts to fix my ship! You better hope you have the parts I require, or I'll make sure nobody else ever shop in this wretched place ever again!"
Darwin felt he might be putting it on a little bit too much, hoping that the owner would fall for it. The next moment would give him his answer.
