A Birthday Adventure

Keter

The Renegade
Keter sighed and shook his head, standing on the edge of the loading ramp of his Fury. Far below, he could make out the buildings of Coruscant flashing past. And dangling beneath him, hanging on from a rope, was [member="Owain"] . The blond smiled in what he hoped was an encouraging way. "How you doing down there?" he called over the sound of the air rushing past.
 

Owain

Lord High Grand Commander Esq.
The plan had been simple. Travel to Coruscant, enjoy the sights and sounds, learn something new about himself etc etc. At least that's how his uncle had sold it to him. The uncle currently flying the ship dragging him through the air at far above the safety limit. Sure, it was his birthday, but this was certianly not any way to celebrate such an event. He had expected to get drunk, maybe do some spice, smoke a few deathsticks. Not to be cuaght up in a drunken plan concoted by his uncle and his employer.

Glaring up at [member="Keter"] , Owain made a rude gesture with his free hand, the other holding onto the cable tightly fastened to his belt. Super powered Sith or not, over protective father of a cute girl or not, the man was undoubtedly mad. This scheme was proof enough. He wished he could have said as such, but any words he would make would only be stolen by the passing wind.

Keter laughed as he saw his friend's nephew flip him a soldier's salute down below. "Alright, he's ready!" he shouted deep into the ship's innards, taking a deep breath fo the Coruscant air to clear his thoughts for a moment. How long had it ben since he had drank? A long time. He hardly had friends to go out with drinking. But when he and the Barnabus' had gone out earlier in the evening, they had discovered it was [member="Owain"] 's birthday. That warranted some sort of celebration! And so the two older men had taken to drinking, the younger man also partaking though not as heavily, probably reasoning he was going to have to look after them later.

Poor deluded fool. He didn't need caring for. He wasn't some old man to be nursed! Hence this whole outing. The realization that Elliot had nothing for his nephew due to lack of funds had prompted Keter to suggest they get him something memorable, to commemorate their time together. The old commando had agreed, and the younger Barnabus had offered up the notion of some kind of lightsaber proof weapon so he could better defend himself in the galaxy when he went his own way. Such items were prohibitvely expensive, and lacked a certain personal touch. So Keter had declared they would find some materials and get Owain a custom blade for his birthday. The problem had been finding such materials. Luckily, the Coruscant Museum had some nice relics from the Old Republic era, some made of cortosis. In their inebrieted state, Keter and Elliot had agreed that they should rob the place. Owain had initially agreed until he realised they weren't kidding.

In the cockpit of the Fury, Elliot Barnabus grinned as he swung the ship around into an arcing turn that would take them over the top of one of the many museums dotted across the surface of Coruscant. Time for his nephew to show what he ahd learned in the Military Academy!
 

Owain

Lord High Grand Commander Esq.
Owain saw buildings zip past as the ship flew on. Then it began to slow a tad and drop in altitude. His eyes narrowed as he looked about. What the hell where they...oh no. That was the Coruscant History Museum. They...they were actually going through with this. They were going to rob a civic building, and melt ill-gotten gains into a birthday present because the two supposedly responsible adults were

a) Too cheap to just buy him something, and
b) Too drunk to realize this was a terrible idea.

Actually, add another thing :

c) Too drunk to realize he had been JOKING.

The Fury continued to lose speed until he was dnagling pretty much directly beneath it, his eyes no longer watering from the speeds involved. Owain glared up at the SIth Lord grinning happily at him from the ramp above. "Now what you-" Fortunately, the rest of his sentance was drowned out by the screams of passing aircars.
