Caedyn Arenais

Guest

The Repertoire had crossed into Mandalorian Space roughly a couple hours prior to Caedyn's message being relayed to the last known location of [member="Loreena Arenais"], whom to his knowledge was still training under her mentor, [member="Jaster of Clan Awaud"] or some such name. The young man wasn't exactly clear on what was good for Mandalorian etiquette, his father knew next to nothing about them despite his mother's supposed heritage to them, and she often refused to talk about them for fear of having to associate with them as far as Caedyn had been able to tell, thus it was only natural that he wound up being rather clueless to his Sisters day-to-day dealings when he himself had been gone for several years to study under the Je'daii Order. At one point, Lori had come to visit him on Tython at the temple of Stav Kesh, yet the stay had been brief due to his training regiment at the time. Since then however, with his Master having given a bit more time to accommodate Caedyn's new desire to explore the galaxy, [member="Asha Hex"] hadn't been so discouraged when he stated that he wished to visit his Sister; her only real command being that he look after himself !

Lori, it's Caedyn!

I'm in Mando space, somewhere around a world called Korda! Send me your coordinates so I can come to whatever world you're on, it's been forever...
Somewhere south of Mandalorian Space probably closest to Commenor from there, Caedyn sat at his ship's controls leaning back in the pilots chair with his feet kicked up atop the dash and little Ashla in his lap having almost fallen asleep to his left hands massaging her around the ears. The adorable little Yorshi was the light of Caedyn's life most days given his general lack of friends outside of his own Master and his older peers within the Je'daii. He wasn't exactly the most out-going social type when it came to hunting down people who might like to play with him and recently the only two possibly friend-like people he had met had been [member="Beth Australis"] who had tried to set him up in a pretend skirmish, and [member="Asaraa Vaashe"] who had gotten lost in the Capital City of their home-world. Both were girls, and while near to his age, Caedyn was the least confident person around the opposite sex and even less experienced having never had a girlfriend or for that matter actually met any of his Master's friends or new if she had a boyfriend...-Well, you get the point !

Getting back on topic...-He sat there all relaxed and alone within the rather expensive looking vessel that had been paid with Commenori credits, holding all the right official credentials of a bird of the Commenor Systems Alliance, were anyone to fly his way and try to scoop him up. Once upon a time there had been Adelle Ciryal who would have been with him, she his former pilot and hired gun for his and his Sister's protection; only she had been associated with his father during the same time that Veiere Arenais had been branded a traitor and enemy of the state, thus when he had fallen into exile and disappeared, there'd been no one left to vouch for Adelle and while she had been really nice to Caedyn, she had left as she'd no longer been getting paid and he'd since been taught how to pilot by Master Hex.

Abandonment Issues seemed to be a bit of a thing these days, he had to suppose. First their Dad had proven to be a traitor, killer and all-round bad guy (which was hella confusing after a life of being loved and treated like royalty by him); and then his personal pilot, she of whom Caedyn thought had cared about him, had tucked her tail and fled at the lack of credits coming her way. All this to say that Caedyn's independence had certainly grown, though he hadn't exactly been given a whole lot of choice, he had learned to accept these things for the sake of not having any say in the matter. Life was simply that much more difficult outside of Commenor.

Though he did appreciate one thing nowadays, out here he wasn't treated like the Prince of an Empire.

An unescorted star yacht attracted attention. As the capsuleers of New Eden would say, undocking equals consent.

The frigate Stonetusk, a Whiphid Raider, exited hyperspace in company with a pair of patrol boats. On the Stonetusk's bridge, Velok examined the situation. Technically, this patch of deep space was inside Mandalorian territory, but he'd crossed the Mandalorians at the height of their power and lived to tell. At a guess, he could snare the yacht and jump away in the teeth of whatever they could throw at him.

<<Cripple the prey.>>

The fast frigate and the even faster patrol boats surged ahead. Ion cannons and mag-pulse tubes fired as convenient. If he managed to close the range, the Stonetusk could bring tractor beams and grappling hooks to bear.
 
The biggest smile EVER came across Lori's face the moment that her datapad beeped and she had seen that it was a message from her twin brother, [member="Caedyn Arenais"] . As far as siblings go, they were alright. During their younger years, they teased eachother, pranked eachother and fought like most brothers and sisters did. However there was a lot of love there. And when Caedyn left their home to go train with the Je'daii, she was heartbroken as the twins had never been separated before. She even tried to stowaway within his luggage, but she was found out before it had even left their Estate.

For a time she was down in the dumps, a depressed and moody child. It was then that their Mom [member="Lady Kay"] had introduced her to her mentor and teacher [member="Jaster of Clan Awaud"] to learn of her half Mandalorian heritage and how to protect herself. Being out of the limelight, the Prince and Princess were able to live near normal lives without the pressures of being royalty. In truth, most people didn't even know who their parents were, so that was a blessing in disguise.

Lori quickly dispatched a reply:

~Snotface!

I've missed you and I'm not far from there! I can't wait to catch up with you and I promise not to scare you with my flying. We can meet umm...I don't know Korda very well. We'll meet in orbit and then go down together! I'll be in The Grey Sparrow so you'll recognize it. I'll see you very soon!

Lori the Mandi'Lori'an~


Within moments, Lori was running from her quarters on Jaster's ship and heading to the hanger where her ship was waiting for her. She quickly climbed into the cockpit and started going through the pre-flight checks before sending a message to Jaster on her commlink. "It's Lori. Got a message from my brother. He's near Korda, so I'm going to go meet him. I'll be back soon!"

Lately she had kind of been avoiding the man, after an argument that they had while she was sparring with [member="Kaine Australis"] . Lori hadn't quite forgiven him for what he did, putting her in her place in front of the others. It was so humiliating, more so than losing the spar!

Once her little ship was ready, she took her out of the hanger, punching in the co-ordinates for Korda, completely unaware that her brother was being hunted by [member="Velok the Younger"] and his crew.
 
He sat in the bridge of the "Manda Loot" the capital ship that housed his operations center for both his company and defense force of their trade lanes. Standing next to one of the navigations officers he heard a beeping from his comlink. It was from [member="Loreena Arenais"] his apprentice and the one he promised to train and protect. Listening in, it seemed she was again going to visit her brother [member="Caedyn Arenais"]. That sure seemed to be fun for her, not like he could stop her. He just stood there as she watched her starfighter speed off into the empty space.

He sent a response to her, "Understood, I have a meeting with Mand'alor Yasha Mantis so I will be leaving this sector of space in a few hours, If I am gone please contact my brother who will be in the sector until your return," He had not really spoke with her in a while and still needed to talk about what happened, he added, "have fun kiddo, and see you when you get back."

[member="Jake Awaud"] would be on a mission in the area, so he could answer a call if there was a need. Though he knew the kid would never ask, still though he worried for her. As such he put up a front of being okay with her travels by herself, and have a safe guard should things get hairy. He also wanted to talk with her when the time came, they had not spoke since Hecklor and that was mostly his fault, he did not want things to go unsaid.

Ashla awoke with a fright as Caedyn scrambled forward at the sound of the proximity alert flashing up on the main console screen; the young pupper having been forced to leap off of him and into the co-pilots seat with a grunt before being pulled into the back of the chair as the boy sent the ship into immediate full throttle burst, yelling something unintelligible to the little Yorshi. Unfortunately on Caedyn's end, everything made complete sense and panic had kicked his instincts into overdrive and the Force called to him for immediate action; they were being chased by something or someone who wasn't at all friendly!

His options weren't exactly endless, Korda Six sat directly in front of his ship's line of sight; the Shadow of Commenor named for it's speed and high profile maneuverability thanks to the shared efforts of the Galactic Empire's contribution towards the CSA's vested interest in providing comfortable transit to it's so-called "VIP's", Caedyn was forced to give her everything she had, knowing that he had never been in open space combat before, ever only having used his Staff to keep himself safe.

"Master's gonna kill me..." he stammered the words under his breath as the bridge around him rocked with the high impulse of the ships engines, [member="Asha Hex"]'s words repeating in his mind "...Just make sure you look after yourself..." fat chance of that today it seemed.

With the Vessel surging forward and the two patrol ships coming up on sensors, the boy turned to look to the secondary terminal bringing up the ships shielding and defensive capabilities. With his pursuers at his back, he set the main energy output to the rear in order to try to keep whatever blaster fire that they might throw at him from breaching and hitting the hull; soon looking for the guns on the ship and realizing that the main turret needed a second person; the guns controlled from the bridge were stationed upon each wing and could only fire forward. "Crap...-Don't suppose you can shoot, Ashla..." He grumbled to his pupper before shaking his head. His ship wasn't much of a fighter but a high class runner. Speed and agility was everything and it was clear now more than ever why his father had hired someone like Adelle for the job.

He didn't even have time to register his sister's message while his would-be aggressors were coming down on his tail.

I love public threads <3

The yacht ran and ran fast. The mag pulse warheads fell short, and even the patrol boats struggled to keep up.

<<Arrows!>>

The capture attempt had exactly one good option. The yacht had just made itself a fixed target of sorts by heading away. A tough target, to be sure, and a small one, but fixed nonetheless. The fast frigate opened fire with all its turbolasers and ion cannons. The goal here was to force the yacht to take evasive maneuvers and let the patrol boats get into range. At that point, their lighter weapons could help wear down the yacht's double-strength aft shields, and their weak tractor beams might slow it down.
 
Just as she had left the hanger, Lori heard [member="Jaster of Clan Awaud"] 's voice come over her commlink in response to her quick message to him. It caused her to hold her breath as for a brief moment she had thought that he wouldn't let her go. But the man was busy, so he didn't have the time to argue with her. A meeting with Yasha was important stuff, so she wasn't going to distract him. "I will! Umm...you too." She didn't quite know what else to say right then, her mind fully on seeing her brother again. Which led to her thoughts moving towards that of [member="Jake Awaud"] . She hadn't really met him, or rather hadn't had any conversations yet. How much fun for him would it be to learn that he was possibly going to be her babysitter for this trip? How embarrassing and annoying!

Lori took in a deep breath and let it out slowly as she punched in the co-ordinates for Korda on the navi-computer and hit the throttle. Once the Grey Sparrow was at a safe distance from Jaster's ship, she brought her into hyperspace.

Her anxiety was kicking in and she figured that it was just due to the excitement of being with her twin brother again. Something else tugged at her though, and she couldn't quite place it. Was [member="Caedyn Arenais"] anxious too? She didn't have the Force training that he did, so her skills were underdeveloped.

It won't be long now before she'd find out for sure.

The Force, it called to his ever movement, guiding his hands swiftly across the dash of the The Repertoire and leading his senses to prioritize feeling over thought; to compensate his anxiety with clarity of mind and purpose driven intent. His survival was being threatened and it was in these moments where the boy fell back into the embrace of the natural life-stream that connected all things and could be channeled through his years of training to aid him in his times of need. Though he was young, his years had been well spent and his minds eye was keen in the sight of all things around him. He controlled the vessel without really focusing on any one direction ahead but rather listened to the murmurs within his heart, tremors along the tendrils of power that played his hand like a puppeteer did his folly. Caedyn, in this moment, was the epitome of transient and prestige focus.

He felt immense apprehension as [member="Velok the Younger"] opened up on his blaster cannons and sought to run him down with streams of blaster fire; the larger ship was slower than the Repertoire yet it had not come alone, those two escort crafts were smaller and better maneuverable, keeping on Caedyn's tail and seeking to punish his shields with their armaments. Pushing the X-70 Phantom into a spin, Caedyn drew back on the throttle, slowing her speed whilst pulling back on the controls so that the vessel could use the slowed momentum to sharply turn, banking right at such an angle that he hoped to throw the two pursuing escorts off of his tail, seeking to reverse their positions that he might bring atleast one of them into view of his targeting systems and open up with the main blaster cannons set upon each side of his ship.

Rex was out on patrol checking his space lanes were still free from pirates. He had run into a problem with several of them and one of his friends in which he had to save them. Hence why he had The valkyrie fully loaded and ready to go looking through his space lanes. That was when the sensor officer called out to him "Sir we have two ships nearby one is claiming CSA allegiances the other has no tag." Rex would nod "Okay then, get the pilots into there ships and send the co-ordinates to navigation. We will soon find out what is going on."
kytzqkd1.png
When they arrived they saw the CSA ship under attack. "Weapons, fire Ion cannons at that frigate then hit it with the kyber batteries." He would bark before continuing "Comm get us a line to the CSA ship, tell them Rex Taff is here to assist them. Tell them my allegiances are with Lady Kay and Commoner . Then get those fighters out into space and hound the patrol boats. I don't want them getting near the Yacht." People would rush to follow his orders. It wouldn't be long before 4x Squadrons of F-25 Autofighters and 3x Squadrons of Fury-class Fighters where launched from the Star Destroyer. Rex hoped it would help.

Velok bared his tusks happily as the yacht did exactly what he'd hoped. A patrol boat took serious damage, to be sure, but the other one closed in with weapons and tractor beams. Velok's frigate, very fast for its size, began to make up the distance it had lost. In very short order, that yacht would be nestled in the frigate's hangar with burly Whiphids prying the doors off.

Or not.

<<A great beast emerges, Grandfather.>>

Velok growled something unprofessional and squinted at the sensor displays. Long-range cannons began whittling down the Stonetusk's shields. In theory he could park behind that ship and kill it, but the scrambling fighters would prevent that easily.

<<Signal the retreat. We have too few hunters.>>

<<Our outer shell is half-broken, Grandfather.>>

<<Already?>> Velok hissed. Out there in the starscape, the damaged patrol boat took a stray turbolaser blast and vanished in a fireball. The other boat broke away from the yacht and jumped to hyperspace. A moment later, the Stonetusk followed.

Velok clenched one huge three-clawed hand, and lightning boiled uselessly around his fist.

"Balls."
 
Beth was ordered to go with [member="Rex Taff"] on a patrol check in Mandalorian space. it was an order, though, she eagerly accepted. She loved getting off the planet, into the beauty of space. Her primary goal? Learn. She had learned and watched her father during the battle on Barataria. But that was near war, a near worst case situation. Her buir said she needed to go with Rex along the lines of learning about how others command ships & crews - a skill she needed to learn as a potential pilot and a potential captain herself. Granted, Beth wasn't sure if she would ever be a pilot. But, it still didn't hurt to learn. Beth was eager to learn new skills to her growing collection of skills, hobbies, and so forth.

The young Eldorai-Human was unconvinced she needed to learn from others considering how much she looked up to [member="Kaine Australis"]. Of course, the other fleeters of the Mandalorian Empire were amazing (including Rex) but, still. Ultimately, she knew that it was in her best interest to learn from others than just him. Rex was a natural choice - an extraordinary pilot with a crew. Someone that the Mandalorian Empire relied upon.

The young girl stood near Rex, wearing a light blue dress & her hair in a braid, ears perked with curiosity. She wasn't close enough to disturb him or his crewmembers work but close enough that she could watch what he was doing. Moments later, the sensor officer informed Rex of a potential situation. Didn't sound too good. She perked a brow, stepping forward as the scene unfolded. "Why would it be out here by itself," she asked quietly, mostly to herself as she peered towards the scanners.

"Wait... They already left...?" She asked, her ears even more curious although slightly disappointed at the lack of a star fight.

Lori's Grey Sparrow exited hyperspace just in time to catch the end of the firefight. Did she just fly into a battle? Her eyes darted over the scene, searching for signs of [member="Caedyn Arenais"] . She quickly activated her comms, knowing and feeling that he was around there somewhere.

~Cae! Cae, are you alright?! What happened? Where are you?!~

She took the Grey Sparrow further in, noting [member="Rex Taff"] 's ships and his squadrons of fighters. Hopefully they wouldn't deem her as a threat. Lori kept her shields up and training weapons offline, just to show that she had no ill intent.

In a way she was disappointed to have missed it. But in other ways she was glad. After her losses in recent tournaments, Lori didn't need to have another blow to her ego. At least not yet.

Cae! Cae, are you alright?! What happened? Where are you?!
Caedyn could hear his Sister's voice coming in over the Comm's, yet he could scarcely believe what had just appeared out of nowhere and just in time to pull his ass out of the fire. [member="Rex Taff"] and [member="Beth Australis"], though he didn't realize this at the time, were aboard a massive Star Destroyer looking rather unusually different from those he had ever only seen on the Holo-net. This goliath Mandalorian Bird of Prey overshadowed his and his attackers vessels, quickly dispersing his pursuer, [member="Velok the Younger"] who was clearly outmatched just as Caedyn himself had been.

There's always a bigger fish.

Slowly sitting back within the Pilots chair of the Repertoire, he hadn't even realized that he'd been so hunched over the controls until he had the chance now to catch his breath. The Comm's Station was going off with both his twin [member="Loreena Arenais"] and the massive Destroyer trying to contact him, the latter of which he wasn't entirely certain were friendly until he'd hear their communique.

Taking a moment to poise himself and take a slow deep breath, he then turned to focus first on his Sister whom he needed to make certain he wasn't inviting her into a whole new form of hell. "Lori...-I'm okay, for the moment. Someone attacked me. I'm idle on the port side of this...Massive Star Destroyer. You can't really miss it. They chased off whoever was trying to get me and they're trying to contact me. Gimme a second, I don't want you getting into trouble too!" he spoke clearly and urgently into the comm's mic before moving to cut himself off and change frequencies that he might finally recieve the hail from Rex Taff's great destroyer.

They were claiming to be friends of their Mother, [member="Lady Kay"] and the Commenor Systems Alliance...-But all the way out here? Just how far did their Mom's influence reach in this Galaxy.

"This is Caedyn Arenais..." He paused, second guessing whether or not he should've given his name or if using an Alias in the future was going to be an investment he might need in the future; "Of the Repertoire..."; if there were a time and a place to make note of his title and position back home on Commenor or his connection to Veiere Arenais and his Mom, now would have been the time, yet Caedyn chose not to. It wasn't as though the name Arenais wasn't well known enough but rather he felt uncomfortable being identified as a member of the royal family nowadays where as he had trained and lived his older years as a member of the Je'daii unaffiliated with the politics of both Force Users and the Galaxies pool of governance.

"Who do I have to thank for the assistance?".

Rex would receive notifications that a new ship just came out of hyperspace from his picket patrols. "Sir the ship has it's weapons offline, orders?" "Let them through they obviously came to meet with whoever is on board the CSA ship and senors give me a readout of that ship and who it might be." He would then be informed the ship they saved was asking for a name. He gave a stern look at the Comm's officer. "Didn't I tell you to send them a message, at the very least tell me who they claim they are." "[member="Caedyn Arenais"] sir." Rex would raise an eyebrow. "[member="Lady Kay"] son, I thought he was still in Je'daii space, why is he out this far?" He would ponder for a second.
kytzqkd1.png
He would look at [member="Beth Australis"] "I am sorry they ran bethy but I think you can tell them who we are, what do you think?" He would then hand her a microphone. He would nod to comms who would open up a line to both of the ships. Scanner would finally identify the other ship as the grey sparrow, [member="Loreena Arenais"] ship. Hopefully beth would tell them who they were, while Rex kept an eye on the readout just in case their enemy came back ([member="Velok the Younger"]).
 
A new ship appeared? This could mean something intense, mysterious, and potentially dangerous! Sure, the actual pirates might have left but maybe another one appeared. Reinforcements? Nonetheless, Beth ultimately hoped for a peaceful resolution to the situation - after all, lives were on the line. Any type of fight could bring death to any of the people aboard the different ships.

All in all, maybe Bethy had a bit of an overactive imagination. In her defense, she could see the excitement in the world. She had a rough initial 11 years, but once she was reunited with her family her life became tremendously better. She found the positive, the good, in her life and in others. There was no point in dwelling on her past or the depressing things in the galaxy, after all.

Of course, in the end, the other ship didn't have their weapons online. They were not a threat - at least not openly.

[member="Caedyn Arenais"]? The Prince of the Commenor? What was he doing out here in Mandalorian space? She had met him during their brief encounter in the CSA-Mandalorian war games. She didn't specifically remember them exchanging names during their small encounter, but she found out his name several hours after the war games ended. She wondered if he remembered her or not.

It was a bit still a bit crazy, though, that she tackled the Prince of an entire nation like that. Or, tricked him, which she only slightly still felt guilty for.

In either case, [member="Rex Taff"] offered her to provide the introduction to both ships. Her ears went wide and her ears perked. The lack of action was disappointing but this more than made up for it! She nodded eagerly, "Yeah, I would love too!"

She took the microphone carefully from Rex as he handed it over to her. She cleared her throat, "This is the Valkryie of Clan Australis of the Mandalorian Empire. We are on patrol to prevent piracy." She beamed at Rex. She, in truth, had no idea if this was the correct protocol or not. "This is Beth Australis and Rex Taff speaking. We mean neither of you no harm or threat. Again, we represent Clan Australis of the Mandalorian Empire." She stopped speaking and waited for a reply.

She still couldn't help but wonder why he was doing all the way out here - and the other ship that appeared. What a coincidence.

[member="Beth Australis"]...-Somehow the name didn't ring any bells yet the girl's voice seemed kinda familiar, Caedyn just couldn't place where. Despite his ignorance, the two had in fact met before during an event held between the Commenor Systems Alliance and the Mandalorian Empire, a playful exchange of violence that the boy had tried to enjoy himself against his own typically pacifist nature. [member="Rex Taff"] on the other hand was a name he had heard of before, having not met him face to face that Caedyn could recall, yet having been spoken of by his mother, [member="Lady Kay"] herself, Caedyn's shoulders slumped a little as he exhaled a sigh of relief.

"Stand down, Sis" Caedyn sent word to his sister, [member="Loreena Arenais"] in order to let her know that things were all well and safe now; "Looks like these guys are friends of Mom's...-They might even be Mandalorian like you" He added, not really knowing if it was politically correct to refer to his sister as a Mandalorian just yet. "I reckon we should go and meet them, I'll request to come on-board, their Destroyer looks amazing..." the boy smiled as he made the suggestion, having not actually been aboard such an immense and powerful vessel before.

Turning his attention to his would-be saviors of the day, Caedyn soon diverted his comm's station back upon their frequency and offered his response; "Thank you for for the support, Valkryie. If it would please you, I'd like to request permission for myself and my sister to come aboard and thank you in person. Your vessel looks pretty cool from out here but I bet it looks way better on the inside!" Caedyn's word choice reflecting his youth, caught between trying to be all formal and polite while also trying not to let so much of his boyish charm come out to play for the excitement the Mandalorian Star Destroyer provoked.

Lori was about to answer [member="Caedyn Arenais"] , to let him know that she planned on remaining stand down, but her brother had decided to reach out to the Destroyer himself. It took a minute or two before the voice of [member="Beth Australis"] was heard. Although she hadn't met the girl, she knew of her through word of mouth. [member="Rex Taff"] she knew of as well.

She studied the Mandalorian warbird in awe. Yes it was a fancy vessel, but it couldn't pull off maneuvers that her Grey Sparrow could. Her little ship could fly circles around the Destroyer before their guns could get a lock on her. Well, that was what she thought anyways.

Just as Lori was about to address the Valkirie, Caedyn spoke up on her comms. Was he bossing her around? Of course he was! He always took the opportunity to do that whenever he could. And only because he was sixty whole seconds older than her! Bah! Surely there was some kind of mix up...

~Okay Cae, I'll come around to your flank shortly. I know these guys,...sort of, and they are Mandalorian. Not quite like me though, I'm only half because of Dad. I'll explain later though. See you in a minute!~ Her systems indicated that the Grey Sparrow was already scanned, so she dropped her shields, kept her weapons offline and brought her about to the Repertoire. Gosh it felt like a lifetime since she had seen their personal ship.

Lori switched her comms to address Beth. ~Valkirie, this is the one and only Lori the Manda'Lori'an Arenais in the Grey Sparrow, requesting permission to dock next to my brother.~
 
She beamed towards [member="Rex Taff"], who gave her a nod. She did at least kinda well. He didn't grab the microphone from her hands and freak out, so that was a plus all in itself. In either case, she waited patiently for a response back from the two ships. She was curious as to what they would say in response - thanks, see ya? She wasn't really sure what the protocol was when you saved someone from being pirate food.

She heard [member="Caedyn Arenais"] reply first. It seemed like the ship that had appeared was his sister. They must have been meeting to see each other! She wondered why they would be doing such a thing - he was 15 from what she remembered, plus his sister was his twin. They were young to be separated. Probably education or something. That often times separated people.

First, she replied to Caedyn. "No problem! You and your sister are welcome aboard. We've granted security clearance to dock. It is a really awesome ship, wait till you see the ki-" she stopped, cleared her throat. This was serious. She couldn't exclaim how cool the ship was over a communication like this. She was a Captain-in-training at the moment. "I mean, it is a very well engineered ship. We'll meet you at the landing bay!"

She switched over to [member="Loreena Arenais"] next. She giggled at her pronunciation of Mandalorian - clearly a pun of sorts. Bethy loved it. "Please do! You can come aboard as well, it is pretty... Well engineered ship. We've granted the security clearance to dock." That was what she said before, she thought. "We'll meet you guys at the landing bay!" She turned off the comms and jumped up and down at Rex. "I met Caedyn at first during the war games a while ago. Well, kinda met. I haven't met Lori before, but she was at Cassi's wedding!" She was excited for people to be coming aboard - particularly, people around her age.

She took off towards the landing bay where the two could land and get out of their ships.
 
There a disturbance in the area his brother told him to watch, long distance encrypted communications were active near that spot and that meant he had to go. Damn brother and his orders, he was just getting settled in at one of the rest stop stations in the area. The Female Bartender was so close to giving him her Communication Information... Well that or hitting him over the head with a bottle, but close was still close.

Sitting in his Fighter in Hyperspace heading to the reverse locations of a Sith Battle Group who seemed to be fleeing. He could only assume this was gonna end bad, he turned off his Mandalorian IFF Tags and switched it to a UTC, a neutral trading company, to prevent from getting shot. It would really ruin his chances of getting that Twi'lik's information if that were to happen.

Exiting Hyperspace, he saw a large Star Destroyer, a ship he recognized from serving in the Mandalorian Fleet. That was the "The Valkyrie" a ship captained by [member="Rex Taff"], one of Kaines closest allies. What they were doing on this side of space was outside his understanding, but good thing they were here, he did not have to be worried about being shot out the sky. He dicided to keep his IFF Transponder on UTC Identification, would be seen as a pirate to switch after seeing another Mando Ship. He radioed instead, "Valkyrie Command Tower, this is Jake of Clan Awaud, Chief Petty Officer of Squadron One, Clan Awaud Flight Protectorate, I am responding to a ward under the care of Alor Jaster Awaud, I am in search of a," He looked at a not sticker tapped to his dashboard with a name on it, "Loo.... Leerr.. [member="Loreena Arenais"]?" He never meet the girl, but he was to keep her safe if things got out of hand.

He pulled his Star Interceptor to a stop at a distance of the Star Destroyer and awaited a call back from their command. The ship was to large to get a reading on the other two ships near it. Its large form blanketed the scanners that it could not pick up the smaller craft near it.

The Repertoire was a much larger ship than his sister's Starfighter, the Shadow of Commenor for which it had been dubbed the day of it's finish was classified as a Heavy Corvette and offered comfortable standards for all whom might be aboard; originally it had been designed by their Father for the Twins personal needs, yet Caedyn had been shipped off to the Je'daii Order and [member="Loreena Arenais"] to the Mandalorian Empire thus the ship wound up in the boys hands following Adelle Ciryal's resignation. One of these days, Caedyn planned on tracking her down again because despite her being blamed and distrusted for her loyalty to the boys father, Adelle had grown on him and their friendship had taught him a few less legal ways of getting around and making credits. The kinda stuff you didn't learn from the Je'daii...

"On my way, Valkyrie" Caedyn responded curtly and soon initiated a low impulse in order to reach the far greater vessel at a safe speed, his terminal screen lighting up as the designated Hangar for his docking with the Star Destroyer came up on his nav. Despite only being Fifteen, Caedyn was a pretty talented pilot; he had after all been taught by some of the best he knew and with the Force as his ally there was a sense of guidance and comfort that enabled him to perform these sort of things in a rather professional manner.

His Ship touched down upon the Hangar Bay's floor with a hiss and a grind of the hydraulics absorbing the shock and weight of the vessel as it's landing struts took hold and everything finally stopped moving. Powering down all his primary systems and soon setting the vessel to standby, Caedyn got up and out of his seat provoking his little Pupper to do the same, Ashla landing with something of a huff of air and soon a light bark of excitement following the lad down the corridor and soon to exit his ship.
