"Thank you, Ifraz." Grace replies, carefully pocketing the notes. "We'll find what you want." She turns, motioning for Kaz and Luum to follow her, but stops at the door.
"They never change, do they." She sighs. "You watch yourself as well old friend." For a moment she stops, her mouth open, thoughts hanging in the moment, then shakes her head minutely.
Why don't yo-
He already knows. And I respect the man too much to state the obvious.
"May the Force be with you." She says finally, then leads the way out of the shop and turns to Kaz. "Come on Kaz, let's find those parts."

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
Kaz's mind tries to comprehend the conversation she had heard. Did he just hand Grace a stackful of credits? He didn't even look at the stuff we brought. I thought that the Empress had said that Jedi were terrorists, not that I ever believed that. They stood up to the Sith, so they couldn't be all that bad. And what does "May the Force be with you" mean? Is it some kind of code that I've never heard of? Kaz sighs, "Uh, Grace what was he talking about? What war is he talking about? According to the Sith, the Jedi are considered terrorists. They even broadcast the executions over the holonet."

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
Ifraz chuckles.
"Just leave those things behind, I'll make sure the Empire can't trace them back to you. And as to the War, my Twi'lek friend, it has raged on since before even I was around. The Sith and the Jedi are mortal enemies. Though," he adds with a grin, "I suppose they have switched roles now. The Sith working in the light of day, while the Jedi operate from the shadows. But I may yet live to see the government of this galaxy switch hands yet again."
Ifraz goes back behind his counter, and starts typing on a console.
"You have the list, children. Now, I suggest you go. If the Sith have tracked you, they will not be far behind. And Grace, I know how you felt when you rejected for training by the Order. But the Force will be with you."
"Always."

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
"If I have anything to say about it, you will old friend. That I pledge you." She grimaces slightly at the memory - little over a decade old to her, but more than a millennia to the universe that had kept on spinning. "I think...I can accept that, Ifraz. Took me long enough perhaps, but it takes time." Turning again to Kaz, she gestures at the door.
"C'mon, Kaz. We have a lot to do, and little time. Where id you say those parts where?"
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
As they make their way out of the shop, Kaz notices that she still has the DL-44 tucked under her arm. She guiltily looks at Grace, but see that she is lost in her thoughts. Kaz walks over the speeders and places the blaster into a compartment. She hears Grace ask a question and looks up. 'Parts? Oh yeah. We passed the place when we came here. It's the one with the wookies carved out of stone in front. I thinks it's called Wookea."
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
Luum's hand freezes in mid movement when Ifraz gives him a command. As Grace and he go back to conversing he lowers his arm to its standard position and continues to look over the droids, not touching anything. When business seems to be settled he follows the two women out. He starts crawling up onto the speeder, struggling to get his weigh up on it. After a few attempts his half jumps and flailing arms finally succeed and his semi-impressive weight causes the speeder to lower slightly. From the speeder he tugs on Kaz's cloths trying to get her attention then motions for her to move closer, in a shy and meek voice "Why are the bad guys tracking you?"

Sorry about being out for so long had some computer problems. Its all fix now and won't be a problem in the future.

Wookea. The building housing the store is rundown, as though no one ever thought to maintain it. Inside however, is completely different. Shelves are arranged in neat rows, and filled with parts that are neatly labeled.
They appear to have everything. SoroSuub, Incom, BlasTech, KDY, if it was ever a company, there are parts from it here.
A graying old Wookie approaches asking if you need something specific.
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
Kaz takes a few moments to ponder the little droids question. She wasn't entirely sure why they were after her. Okay that wasn't totally true. She was an alien and a member of her local rebel cell. Then there was the business on the casino ship, that got a little out of hand. She laughed then said, "It's, uh, a little complicated Luum. I guess I'm not entirely sure why they're after me."
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
The pit droid remains silent for a second as if it's processing kaz's answer, then as typical for the little droid it refocuses it's optical lens several times while observing her face, "Is that what your naming me?
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
"Naming you? I don't understand." Kaz thinks hard for a minute, "Wait, your name is Luum? I..I don't know how I knew. This is gonna sound strange, but it was as if someone whispered it to me. But, I suppsoe to a droid that doesn't make much sense, it certainly doesn't make any sense to me. It's been a really weird day." Kaz watches the Wookie approach and ask a question. She reaches into a pocket and pulls out a datapad with the list of parts they needed. Everything we need is on here. And could you please put a rush on that, we're in a bit of a hurry."
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
The wookie looks at the list.
"These parts are rare. Haven't seen an engine like this running for some time. It will cost a bit more than usual."

Grace listens silently, then withdraws part of the roll of credits that Ifraz had given her and furls it in silent response to the Wookie's - presumed - hidden question.

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
"I will go see what I have."

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
The grizzled old Wookie comes back minutes later, carrying the hyperdrive motivator you need.
"I have also included a list of new specifications for you to use. It eliminates most of the problems this type of unit had when they were still in use. I can hardly believe anyone would need one of these, or that I would still have one."

In its original wookie that whole paragraph is simply: "Rrrr'Rrgh. RrRrr."

A fair price would be most of what you were given by Ifraz, about 4500 credits. You were given 5500.
"6000 credits, friend."

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
Kaz looks at Grace and can tell that they don't have enough credits to meet the wookies price. She remembered something her father had said, Kazzi, it's all about supply and demand. Those who have the supply can demand whatever they want. She chewed on her lower lip as she thought, then said, "6,0000, huh? Seems kinda up there. Mind if I take a look?" She doens't wait for the wookie to reply as she stoops down and inspects the hyperdrive.

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
Kaz stands back up and turns to the wookie. "That hyperdrive has a few lightyears on it. Can you do any better on the price? Say, maybe, 4000?"
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
"5500. I shouldn't be cutting off the price like this, but I can make an exception."
-
Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
"5500? Is that the best you can do? I've seen a few of these go for at least 45. Could you take 4850?" Kaz asks.

Re: Echoes of the Past (Star Wars) still recruiting!
Grace smiles in thanks to Kaz, and nods gratefully to the Wookiee.
"My thanks, kind sir." She says, counting out the required payment and handing it over. "You have done a great service."
Probably more then he'll ever know.
