+Somehow he just knew he was safe with these people and also with the pink lady, Safe enough in fact that he took the bread and the milk and plopped down beside the man with a peaceful smile on his tiny face as he took a bite of his bread and with a mouthful still asked the man in a very curious yet blunt tone..... "Does you know that your blue....and...and She is pink...And the pretty bread lady is gunna haves a baby? ......And as he swallowed the bread with some milk to wash it down he took another bite and asked....+ " Why are you being nice? Everyone else picks on me......especially when my accidents happen"

+His tiny voice growing silent as he took another bite of bread and dropped another small piece into his tunic pocket. His gaze slowly crept over all of them as he ate his bread wondering if he'd spoken too much again+

 

[Rawnie Tal'verda]

Space wizards. He could tell. See right through her. Just like her brother could with his abilities. Rawnie shrugged.

"I've seen 'accidents' like that before. My brother did it too for a bit," she answered, "It's alright. It's not your fault."

She felt her hand twitch towards her stomach where little baby Galaar was growing. But she was not showing yet. Soon though. Another month or so. She bit her lip and looked at Lorane.

"Lor, what do you say we take him out for a bite to eat?"

Taking a deep breath letting the force wash over.

Oh no my sweet dear, its okay those aren't your fault, I can help you to control those accidents, if you would like to come with me, I even have a twins about your age a little boy and little girl." Letting her own empthy wash over the the boy and others around the area. As if at peace with herself. Even so it would be the little ones choice as if he went with her she would make sure that would take him as her own to train him in with his special abilities.

Letting herself sit near him even those that met getting on his eye level that way she wasn't looking threatening in any ways but the loving healer Master she was, even that of nature was her love. After all this was what she seen in her vision but the out come was still unclear.

+unsure as to why, Ryker slowly stood to his feet and held his hand out to the lady who had given him bread, and took her hand in his. He hadn't eaten anything in days except for the bread and some stolen fruit and her offer of food sounded good. But the pink lady had said she knew how to stop his "accidents" and his curiosity took over as he asked.... "Can the blue man and the pink lady come with us to eat?" . +His small eyes wide with anticipation, hoping they could all go for food......hopefully somewhere on another planet...that wasn't so hot+

[Nasro]

There it was again, the prickly feeling in the back of his skull.

That six sense that people sometimes claim they have, that feeling that someone is staring at them or that something is about to happen.

Although sublety different in Nasro's particular case.

Pausing durring the moments that the prickly feeling came and went, annoying the pushy merchant he was in negotiations with over the trade of salvage he wanted.

Nasro had followed a tip from another Salvager that there were some parts for CIS droids on Tatooine and so far he had come up with nothing. Spending the last several days negotiating with the bandit's and swindlers on this planet had worn him out. Letting the merchant continue their spiel on the power converters he had for sale Nasro sighed internally.

"I'd better finish my business and leave this planet before these reckless force users bring the entire Sith empire down on top of them. With all the restraint they aren't using I'd be suprised if someone didn't try to capture some of them for a bounty."

Nasro wondered and then pondered on the potential of capturing one of the force users .
Shaking his head no in reply to his own thoughts and to the merchant and issuing the same response to both, "It just isn't worth the trouble."

Turning his full attention back to the merchant, "I'm interested in one thing, the communications array you have there on the shelf will you deal or not?"

A few short words and a agreed deal with the merchant and the "communications array" belonged to Nasro. From his research it was an esential component of system that needed repairs on his ship but only a fool would give that information freely, a fool with deep pockets anyway.

As the merchant managed getting everything loaded on repulsor lift carts for transport to the space port, Nasro scanned the crowd as he felt the pulse of a different force user wash over him pinpointing a small group of dubious looking individuals in the process.

"how very annoying, I'll be very glad when I'm off and away from those reckless force users."

Lor was, as always, leery of the space-witches. The Zeltron's kindness was evident, but she was still apparently a Jedi. That was enough to make the Chiss want to find some way to avoid her following them around. He got up and gave the kid a gentle pat on his head.​

​

"'Course I can come. Now, d'you know where we can go to eat?"​

+Still holding the pregnant woman's hand his soft gaze would turn to the blue man as his soft tone sounded.... "Me hear that the cantina around the corner has food.....but me usually just steal fruit or wait for the food shops to close and throw away all the left over stuff" .....His tiny voice silenced once more as he watched curiously at all the people staring at him as they passed by+

 

[Rawnie Tal'verda]

The Echani was actually getting annoyed by the pink womans over exaggerated kindness. It didn't come off as sweet. It came off as creepy, and Rawnie felt herself somewhat defensive of this kid. What if this space wizard was trying so hard just to recruit him into her space wizard cult? She let the child take her hand, nodding to Lorane.

"...she can come," she relented, "I guess."

She listened to the little boy talk about how he survived. Resourceful. Rawnie approved. Meant he had a strong will to have survived this long.

"My name is Rawnie," she introduced, "And this is my fiance, Lorane."

She nodded to the blue man with the glasses as they walked.

This was the first time that Ella Nova had been to Tatooine. It was famous in the Republic, for being a safe haven for criminals, smugglers and a place to buy drugs, slaves and a wide array of weaponry, that had been outlawed by Republic law. Suffice to say, Tatooine wasn't a place where the Republic were welcome.

Investigating the child's movements had been frustrating. As the Force flowed through her, waiting for it to guide her to the Torgruta Force-sensitive. With picture in hand, she had approached vendors, shop owners and civilians she had met in the streets, asking them if they knew where he was. But she was either ignored, given small answers in an obvious attempt to get her to leave them alone or plainly told that they didn't know.

As the Jedi Knight turned a corner, something in the Force told her that she was close. There was a disturbance, as someone unleashed their raw powers. Down the street, she saw a crate come to a crashing stop a meter ahead of her, broken from what had hit it and the subsequent fall. She heard a child yell and knew a Force Scream, when she heard it.

Walking down the street, Ella came to a stop another meter away from the Torgruta and the group that surrounded him. A Chiss man stood beside a woman in armour. The child was holding the woman's hand. In front of them, a Zeltron woman was speaking to the group. Through the Force, Ella could sense her powers in the Force. She was not a Dark Jedi or Sith.

Ella wasn't aware that the council had sent another Jedi to find the child; and obviously this woman had found him before she had. Instead of moving forwards to engage the group in conversation, Ella made her way into an alleyway and watched from around the corner. She would use patience, until she learned more about the situation and how best it would be to get hold of the Torgruta. He was in danger on Tatooine and it was up to Ella to save him from this hell hole. Such was her mission.

"That's a pretty name, Raaw Nee" +Stated the tiny Togruta as he tried hard to pronounce her name, And not particularly sure that he had+. "Not really sure what my name is but most people call me Ry'Ker" +His tiny bare feet carrying him along beside the lady and the blue man and the pink lady and someone else, someone close but not close+

As they walked together down the alley he would look up to the blue man and with a tug on his sleeve the boy asked.... "Hey Mister Blue......Whats a Fi..Fia....Whats that, that she called you?"

 

[Doctor Azure]

Lor smiled at the little Togruta as he pulled on his sleeve. So his name was Ryker, huh? Interesting name. The question made him chuckle a little.​

​

"It means me and Rawnie are gonna get married. I'm gonna be the dad of the baby she's having, too."​

​

He gave the kid a little rub on the head.​

​

"You can call my Lor, if you want, Ryker. Easier, huh?"​

[Rawnie Tal'verda]

The echani tried not to giggle at the way he pronounced her name. Failed. She giggled, and it was a silly girlish giggle. The kind she hated the most. She blushed a little, coughed and looked away.

"Yeah, Raw-nee. That's righ," she said, "Lor and I are getting married. And we're going to be a mommy and daddy."

She bit her lip lightly as they walked along.

"You don't... have a mom and dad, do you?"

" Well me not real sure, My father told me that my mama and brothers died before we came here and then he went out one night and never came home " . +He didn't actually remember his mother other than flashes and barely remembered his father, but he rarely dwelled on it. Around the next corner was the cantina.

+His stomach growling a bit as he smelled something wonderful cooking, And upon Which he tightened his grip on Rawnie's hand and grabbed lor's hand as he playfully started sprinting off towards the cantina+. "Come on! We're almost there! " +He stated with a happy chuckle+

 

[Nasro]

While leaving the planet was a top priority Nasro felt compelled to check on one last lead that might give him another component for his droids. Supposedly there was a dealer in the area who frequented the nearby cantina.

After wrapping up with the merchant and sending the comm parts back to the space port he left the shabby-looking shop. Warily glancing towards the gathered group of force beacons, he took a different path to keep as far away from them as he could.

Approaching the Cantina the local music washed over him, the band seemed to be playing classics today, a welcome source of relaxation as Nasro had been stressed thinking that he saw the group he tried to loose by the merchant heading this way.

"to much of a concidence if they came here, that little beggar they met probably stole from here and wouldn't want to come here and be recognized"

Nasro logicialy reasoned in his head as he sat down at a corner table and absently ordered a drink from the bar while browsing through the bar's ads on the table's holoprojector.

 

[Doctor Azure]

Ryker's mother and brothers had died before he'd came here? And then... Well, his father was probably dead. People didn't just disappear on Tatooine... The thoughts were forestalled when the little kid began pulling Lor and Rawnie towards the cantina. He was just so happy, a lot like the Chiss himself had been when he'd lived that sort of life. But it really wasn't something he wanted to watch somebody else go through.​

​

When they got into the cantina, Lor pointed at a booth and grinned.​

​

"You like cushy seats, Ryker?"​

+As they entered the cantina Ryker gave a chuckle , And after following Lor over to the booth he hopped into the inside so he could sit between Rawnie and Lor. " Of course me likes cushy seats.....Don't you Lor? " . +Asked the tiny fellow in return before quickly ducking under the table as a waitress passed their booth+

 

[Rawnie Tal'verda]

So he was an orphan. Just as she figured. So after they left, he would still have nothing. It made Rawnie really think...

Was this what it was like to have a child? Rawnie's hand went to her stomach after they'd sat down. Would her little Galaar be this energetic too? She hoped so. It was actually really fun.

"Ryker? Why are you hiding?" she asked, when he dipped under the table, "You alright?"

" Is she gone? " . +He asked as he popped his head out without waiting for a reply, He didn't want to cause the nice people any trouble, and he wasn't exactly on best terms with the owner+. " I'm not supposed to be here unless I bring money cause I got caught stealing " +A look of remorse on his tiny face as he crawled back between Lor and Rawnie+

 

[Doctor Azure]

Lor knew what was going on, simply from the sudden movement when the waitress came by. He'd done that a million times when he passed somebody who'd seen him stealing before. Whether that was a feeling he should mention, he didn't know, but it was enough to feel sympathetic towards Ryker.​

​

"It's alright, Red. We all do bad things sometimes. Usually because it feels like we need to."​

+Red....He liked that he thought as he looked up to Lor and could tell he knew what it was like, Living outside, Eating what and when you could just to survive. His tone came out as almost a mumble as he looked back down at the table+. " Me was hungry Lor"
