Private Two and a Half Jedi

[Adrian Valerius]

Adrian lean over and snapped his hand around Cas's lower arm as accepting his apology, "no worries love, you can send me a fruit basket later" said Adrian, giving Cas a wink, before leaning back to his seat. A crack of a smirk formed on Adrian's lips, hearing Cas's a bit too obvious orgasmic food enjoyment. Good to know for another time, however, now was not the time as their food was in front of them. While eating listen to the Knight's question, he swallowed what he was chewing and dug his hand inside of a pocket.

Out of his pocket, Adrian held a small circular holopad and used the force to levitate it over to Cas. "6.10'', dark grey hair and goes by the name of Lord Kargon. Presumably, he's nearing the 250 years now and is highly skilled in avoiding the law and force-sensitive due to his ability to shape body. Infiltrating this party is our only ticket to capture this Lord Kargon if that's even his real name" explained Adrian taking another bite.

Looking away from his food and with the first dead serious look on his face, "he's dangerous, elusive and high effective in killing Jedi in unexpected ways if he finds out that you are one" warned Adrian and for a second everything turned grim on his face. However, the seriousness in Adrian's eyes, disappeared once again, "so we're going to enter the party as guest without any ties to the Jedi. That goes for hiding your lightsabers well" said Adrian with a smile and returned to eating his food.

"Oh right, there should be a button that shows you what Lord Kargon looks like right now" added the Jedi Master pointing with his fork at the holopad. If Cas or Yenna pressed the button, they would see a holographic image of Lord Kargon in all his glory.

Cas was relieved that the Jedi Master had accepted his apology - thank the stars that was out of the way. He grinned at Adrian's reply before firing back a witty remark "Sure, expensive stuff only right?" before returning his attention back to the matter at hand.

Continuing his meal, he listened to the information that Adrian explained - nodding at every few words to indicate that he was still paying attention. From what was described of this 'Lord Kargon' character let him know that what they were about to deal with, was for sure, a nasty piece of work - although it didn't bother him, he was up for the challenge but he was concerned about Yenna... after her injury, he wanted to make sure this wasn't more dangerous for her because of it. Picking up a napkin, he wiped some sauce off of his mouth before grasping the hovering holoprojector. Pressing his thumb on the projector's button, a blue but clear holographic display of a human looking man appeared.

Scanning the image with his chestnut eyes - a few theories entered the Jedi Knight's mind: with the shape shifting abilities and Kargon's age ranging in the triple digits. Cas couldn't help but wonder... handing the projector over to Yenna so she could get a better look, he turned his attention to the Jedi Master "Is he a Shi'ido?" Cas would ask, now taking a bite of some of his fries.

Still, the knowledge that Kargon was effective in killing Jedi made him worry even more about Yenna's safety. When she was finished with the holoprojector, his eyes narrowed onto his Padawan "Will you be alright doing this?" Cas asked in a concerned tone.

Yenna Adrian Valerius

 

[Yenna]

As they spoke about the target, Yenna continued to eat her burger. She was halfway through another bite when she heard the size of the guy. Immediately her eyes went wide as she looked up with a mouthful of food. Adrian brought up a picture of the guy and Yenna studied him hard, finding it hard to believe he was as tall as Adrian said.

Finally swallowing the delicious bite of burger, Yenna glanced at Cas then Adrian. "At least, make him easier to spot, his size will." she quipped, stuffing her cheeks with a few chips. She was focusing on the brighter side, but deep down she was nervous. The guy was a Jedi killer. She wasn't sure how but if he was really twice her own age, then he certainly knew a few tricks. Luckily he wasn't the only ancient dude with some street smarts. She glanced at Cas as he spoke to her, thinking hard over his question. After a few seconds she smiled and gave a nod. "Not the only older fellow, he is." she quipped confidently. "Handle myself, I can. And alone, I won't be. You two, I will have with me." she continued, glancing between the two. "Take him down, we need to."

She finished off the last bites of her burger and got to work on her chips, taking a few sips of her soda in-between bites. Cas would certainly be able to tell that she wasn't as calm as she was portraying. This was a big assignment for her. But on the other hand, she couldn't stick with easy and simple assignments for the next few decades. If she didn't get used to the pressure now, she probably never would.

After a few moments she finished her chips and sat back with her glass of cola. "Do this, we can." she spoke up, giving them a confident smile.

Adrian played a bit with his drink, before giving Cas his attention, "no one knows, which is why it's so important that we capture the gentleman, before he disappear again" explained Adrian and finished his drink. A smirk of a smile crept forth on Adrian, "well, there is still a couple of hours before the ball. Who else is feeling the need for some pampering?" Asked the Jedi Master and got up from his chair. Looking at the company he had, "besides, you two are in desperate need of some cleaning up, if you are going to match your gown and suit" explained Adrian as he stood with arms crossed with his hip shot out a bit to the side.

"Let's go and no, it's none-negotiable" stated the Jedi Master and left their table to walk over to pay for the meals. Once the meals were paid for, they would find themselves outside. Adrian was serious and wouldn't hear any complaining in skipping the pampering of their bodies. If they did try to debate with the Jedi Master, they would receive a very long explanation to why they needed the pampering.

He was prepared to lecture and debate them in how important pampering was for the body for it to breathe, not to mention really open up for all their pores.

No matter what, he was going to get them to agree to go with him to be pampered the kriff out of by professionally trained masseuses.

Yen was joking to cover up her nervousness, it was obvious to him because he also used to do it and sometimes even now he still did. However, he indulged in her joke with a smile to make her feel more at ease before fist bumping her at her renewed confidence "That's the spirit." he praised her with a genuine smile.

Adrian explained the importance of capturing this guy before swiftly switching topics to that of pampering. Cas threw his head back and groaned before burying his hands into his face out of frustration "You gotta be kiddin' me." Cas would mutter to himself. He felt he was part of some elaborate prank at this point. Cas was trying to be calm and civil but the Jedi Master was really pushing the boundaries of his tolerance levels.

Still sat down, Cas glanced at Yenna pleadingly "You're going to do it, aren't you?" he asked in a low, defeated tone. Pinching the bridge of his nose he let out an annoyed sigh that sounded more like a growl, then ultimately standing up. The Kiffar pointed at Adrian, poking him in his chest with his gloved robotic finger "For this, you've lost yourself a dance, pal." Cas stated pettily.

Adrian was never going to get a dance anyway but still, he wanted the guy to feel bad for pressuring him into getting 'pampered'. He'd have rather relived the day he lost his left arm than pamper, that was saying something.

Yenna Adrian Valerius

 

[Yenna]

Adrian mentioned a session of pampering, earning a bright smile from Yenna. It had been a while since she was spoiled like this. She knew immediately, though, that Cas wasn't going to be up for it... but she would sort that out if he complained over it. She looked at Cas with a nervous smile as he already started to groan over the idea. He asked if she was going to do it and she gave him a nervous smile. "Well... seen me, have you? More than both of you, a pampering, I need." she admitted with a laugh as she glanced at Adrian then back to Cas.

Thankfully he didn't put up any resistance, though he did give Adrian a 'punishment' for this that made Yenna snicker. "Get a dance, still, will I?" she asked him jokingly to try and cheer him up. Finishing her drink, she hopped off the seat and gave his leg a hug. "Don't worry. Enjoy this, you will." she tried to reassure him as she hopped onto his shoulders with a smile. Using his dreadlocks to steer him, she guided him beside Adrian as the Jedi master led the way for them. She was brimming with optimism and excitement, clearly looking forward to this session they were heading towards. She could only hope that her positivity was rubbing off on Cas. She was quite frankly running out of ideas to keep him relaxed and she knew simply asking nice the whole time was going to lose effectiveness as well if she kept it up.

Trying one last trick up her sleeve to help Cas out, she leaned in beside his ear. "Some snacks, buy for us, I will. After this, gossip in your room, we can, while eating snacks." she joked, hoping her last effort of cheering him up would work.

Giving Cas a smirk, followed by a wink, "we'll see" commented Adrian with a light honey filled voice as he led them through the street. Finding the place didn't take long and before they all knew it, Adrian, Cas and Yenna were being led by Twi'leks to the first step of the pampering.

First they would be asked to bath, clean themself off any "sinful" particals that may have latched on to them. While they bathed, their clothes would be washed, dried and prepared for them when the pampering was done. After the bath, they would be guided to a comfortable chair with a small square boks by the feed. The square glass boks was filled with small fish that would clean, remove any dead skin and heal any wounds on the feed. By the armrest of the chair, was a small square table on each side, with a Twi'lek for each hand, cleaning, trimming, cutting nails and many other beauty treats.

Then they would be moved on to mud bath and was given a green piece of vegetable and asked to place them on their eyelids. For each activity, any questions there may have been, would be answered and reasured as well as explain why it was good for the body.

After the half an hour long mud bath, they would each have their own jacuzzi, though neighbouring each other. With a whole hour of relaxation, filled with a diverse cream and health vials to the water, their body and skin felt as if they were made of clouds. While they might have felt tense certain areas in their body, that was long gone.

It didn't stop there, as they would be led into a massage room, decorated to give a very calm and peaceful interior. They were placed on a massage-table and with only a towel around their waste, Adrian could help enjoying the sight of the younger Jedi's well tone body. For him, it was a bit unfortunate that they went into three different rooms, but all that soon disappeared as the the masseurs went to work.

First, they got an hour long hot lava stone placed on their back, followed by massage, which, if it hadn't already disappeared, would completely get any tension out of the body.

Before Cas and Yenna knew it, they done, clothes and on their way to pick up their custom made suits and dress.

[Cadere]

The Jedi Knight rolled his eyes at the Master's response, it really wasn't going to happen. The only person he'd actually be happy dancing with was Yen, for the sheer fact that the two would make a joke/game out of it. Cas followed the Jedi noble through the streets of Theed as he grumbled internally about all of this. When they arrived and were greeted by the Twi'leks, Cas' face lit up, maybe it wouldn't be so bad after all... then he remembered he was in a relationship. Never mind.

The entire pamper session passed as a blur to Cas, not because he enjoyed it, well, it was fine. But more because he was eager to get it over with and capture this criminal they were after. Cas entered a deep but conscious meditative state in order to pass the time and as he did so, he began to focus on his relationship with the Force.

Before he knew it, it was all over and he returned to reality. After getting dressed, Cas accompanied the group on their way to get their outfits.

Yenna Adrian Valerius

 

[Yenna]

Finally they were off to get their massage and pampering. Yenna was really looking forward to it, to be able to relax and get herself treated. With everything going on and the knocks she took on her last mission with Cas, a massage would be heavenly... though once they entered and were asked to undress, she was a little taken back. Of course, they had to undress for all the things they had to do... but she was still quite self-conscious over her appearance.

Getting rid of her worn robes as well as the bandaging that covered her body, she quickly slipped into the bath, keeping her head down and retreating into herself. With the bath done, they were led to a seat where the two delightful ladies helped to trim her fingernails. She made sure not to let them cut too deeply, otherwise she would have a bit of a problem. Though with each passing minute, she worried less and less about her appearance and simply enjoyed the treatment. By the time they reached the mud bath she was quite content, but she did need to ask for new slices after eating the first two that was given to her. In no time at all she was through the second bath and on the massage table where she practically melted through the comfortable table as the masseuse did their job. She accidentally fell asleep for the duration of the stone on her back and even a little bit after it. By the time they were done, she didn't even want to leave the place, though sadly she didn't have much choice.

With the treatment done, she got dressed in her freshly washed bandages and robes, feeling a million times better. With a content grin she hopped onto Cas' shoulders and rested her head on top of his with a delightful sigh. "Soon, do that again, we need to." she quipped as she glanced down at him and at Adrian. "Thank you, Master!" she spoke happily as she gave him a sunny smile. Soon they were back at the tailor and she wasted no time in getting dressed. In the dressing room, she took several moments to look herself over in the mirror before finally coming out with an enormous grin. "Well?! Look, how do I?" she asked them happily as she gave a quick twirl around.

Standing in the clothing store again, Adrian along with Cas, waited for Yenna to come out. When the little Padawan revealed herself a warm yet smirking grin spread spread, "Love, you that dress look absolutely ravishing on you, wouldn't you agree darling?" complimented Adrian and asked Cas, poking him teasingly to the side. The Jedi Master walked over to get a better look at the little green girl, "they won't know what hits them" joked Adrian, giving Yenna a wink.

Upon returning to Cas, the tailor would beg Cas to enter the changing box to equip his own suit. Once the Jedi Knight entered, he would find his suit, which, to his surprise was neither the ones suggested to him by the tailor at first, nor the one he had picked. It was a whole third suit. Classy dark grey trousers with a simple yet quality leather belt. A dark grey vest with velvet against his skin, making the piece extremely soft and comfortable to have on. The vest also had four buttons, black.

To go under the vest was a silk, soft and stylish shirt. A scarf in same colours as the vest and trousers. Then there was the shoes, polished, a small heel and trimmed with gold ontop of it. Lastly, a coat very expensive quality cotton in a dark grey colour scheme, with golden patterns trimmed into it, to give the coat a wind of royalty.

Inside the tailor's, Cas waited with arms folded for his apprentice to emerge in her formal attire. When she finally did, a broad grin formed as he looked over Yen's new look. Feeling Adrian teasingly poke at his side, he rolled his eyes at the Jedi Master before smiling again at Yenna "She looks great." he agreed with Adrian "You really do." Cas addressed Yen, flashing her a wink as he did so. He looked upon her with the pride a father or older brother would have.

Now it was his own turn, promptly reminded to him by the tailor as he was ushered into the dressing booth. Inside, he saw the outfit he would be wearing - while it was neither the one he had chosen or the one showed to him earlier, he had to admit it wasn't that bad. Cas calmly undressed himself from his usual attire and dressed himself in the outfit that was picked out for him.

When he was ready, Cas stepped out of the dressing booth in a goofy fashion and with a goofy smile. Glancing between both Adrian and Yenna, he held his hands in the air "I know, I know, I make this 'fit look hot. Don't all pass out at once." Cas quipped confidently. If only Tess could see him now.

"Reckon all eyes will be on us tonight?" Cas asked his Padawan with a confident grin.

Yenna Adrian Valerius

 

[Yenna]

Yenna beamed at their compliments, feeling a lot better about herself. "Thank you, Master." she said warmly as she looked up at Cas with bright eyes. It was his turn next and she moved out of the way to check herself again in a mirror. She luckily also had a lot of space to hide her lightsabers so she was quite ready for this party. Turning to Adrian, she tugged at his pants and held out a hand for him. "Dance, shall we, master?" she asked playfully, hoping to mess around a bit while Cas got dressed.

When he walked out of the room, Yenna stopped to snicker at his rather goofy exit. "A photo, shall I take?" she asked with a mischievous smile as she picked up her datapad. "Honestly master, very dashing, you look." she complimented as she looked him up and down.

She glanced at Adrian but quickly looked back to Cas when he talked to her. With a chuckle she gave a confident nod. "The part, we look. Act the part, we have to do, is all." she agreed as she looked him over. Glancing down, she quickly bent over and adjusted his pant leg to neatly hand over his shoes before looking up to give him a thumb up. "All set, are we?" she asked as she glanced at Adrian, hoping that they could get moving. She hoped the bar was free at the party. She didn't plan on taking her flask with her...

Watching Cas exit the changing cabin, a smirked formed as Adrian looked the coloured boy over. He cleaned up well and outfit really suits him. Adrian might have to pay extra for the sudden change of order for Cas, but it was all worth the extra bit of credits. Walking over to the Jedi Knight, Adrian gave the man an elevator look, "not bad, not bad" complimented the Jedi Master and stopped in front of Cas.

Teasingly, he held Cas's chin with his index under and thumb on the chin, "so happy, you let me dress you up dearest" commented the Jedi Master, giving Cas a wink, before caressingly letting go of his chin. Turning around, Adrian followed the tailor to pay for his to favourite people's outfit. After a bit of figuring out the price, the tailor keyed in the price, "That will be 85.995 credits" said the Tailor finally.

With a couple of light taps on a datapad, the transaction was over and now Yenna along with Cas had two very expensive and highly stylish if nothing else, very gorgeous outfits for parties.

"Off we go!" announced the Jedi Master cheerfully and left the store while humming a song.

After they left the store, Adrian led them to a very expensive looking limousine-speeder and asked them to get in. With direction given to the driver by Adrian, they would soon realize that they were actually leaving the Theed. Flying over the beautiful countryside of Naboo, they would start to see other speeders or ships flying the same direction as they were.

And then they would see it, right as they flew in the valley, the massive mansion-castle, stood looming over everything.

Hundreds if not thousands of people were flying towards the massive castle-like structure, all with the same invite as Adrian, Cas and Yenna had. With one leg over the other, Adrian pulled out three sets of ear-pieces. "Take these," said the Jedi Master, levitating one to Cas and one to Yenna for a bit more flair than just handing them out.

"Place them in your ear, like this. This way we will be able to warn each other if the other is in danger or are in need of assisting. Remember, 6.10'', dark grey hair and goes by the name of Lord Kargon. And if he catches on, we only have tonight, to catch this fella... Oh, and do try to have fun, we're upholding face and reputation at this ball" explained Adrian, first quite serious, but ended up with a grin.

Landing at the castle, the driver opened the door, which Adrian exited and then turned around to reach his hand out for Yenna to take. If she took the hand, Adrian would guide her out of the speeder very much like a gentleman as if she was the most important girl in the universe. Once Yenna was out, Adrian waited for Cas to exit before he would lead both down the very long red carpet.

Walking down the red carpet, they quickly got surrounded by many other guests, all heading for the grand entrance of the castle, to take part in the Ruby Ball.

Cas' brows furrowed in frustration when the Jedi Master held his chin. This guy did not give up! Calmly, Cas placed his cybernetic hand over Adrian's wrist and gently removed his fingers from his chin "Easy there, Master Valerius. I don't wanna have to call HR on you." he warned, adding a smirk to it as to both set up boundaries but also make light of the situation. Hearing the price of the outfits all together made Cas choke on his saliva, coughing and gagging he bent over and covered his mouth with a fist. So much credits wasted, when it could have been used for something beneficial - like bantha burgers.

Following that, the two and a half Jedi were well on their way to the ball. Sitting at the window seat, Cas spent most of the journey enjoying the beautiful sights of Theed, nudging Yenna to look every time they passed over something particularly mesmerising. Overlooking the fields of Theed, he felt an overwhelming sensation of inner warmth flow through his body, seeing this much beauty filled with a sense of inner peace.

His attention was grabbed by Adrian's voice, Cas' head revolved to face the Jedi Master as he was levitating two ear pieces for him and Yenna to accept. Reaching out, he grabbed it before delicately placing it inside his left ear "Testing, testing 1... 2... Yenna's a gremlin, over." he jested winking at Yenna while simultaneously tapping the ear piece with his index and middle fingers. Returning his focus to Adrian, Cas listened intently on what he said next and at the mention of their target's height, Cas snickered "I think he'll be hard to miss in all honesty." he quipped.

When they finally arrived, Adrian got out first and offered his hand to Yenna which prompted Cas to smile at the man's chivalry. Following Yenna's exit, Cas would follow suit. After stepping out of the speeder, the Jedi stretched his back followed by his legs and let out a stifled groan before following Adrian down the red carpet. Looking around to observe his surroundings, he looked at all of the high class guests with a puzzled look "This is weeeeeeeeird..." he muttered to himself. His outfit wouldn't give away his actual status, but his mannerisms and confusion at higher class traditions certainly would. Cas wondered how Yenna was handling all this.

Yenna Adrian Valerius

 

[Yenna]

At the mention of the price, Yenna's face practically turned a few shades lighter as her eyes went wide. Standing beside Cas, she looked up at him in disbelief. "This dress, I don't want anymore." she muttered. Honestly, all that money for a few outfits. It was impossible for the little Jedi to wrap her head around. However Adrian led them along and Yenna made quick work of shifting the thought into the back of her mind.

Soon enough they were in a very sleek speeder with her sitting between the two Jedi. Yenna was calm and collected at first, but it all went out the window as Cas drew her attention to all the stunning sights along the way to the party. By the time they reached the place, she was standing on Cas' lap and staring out of the window with an awestruck smile on her lips.

Before they reached the place, Adrian handed them both earpieces which she slipped in after looking it over. She tuned in and received a rather amusing quip from Cas, earning him a slap on the chest. "For you, tonight, no midnight snacks." she teased back with a smirk as she looked up at him. The speeder touched down and Yenna let Adrian help her out of the speeder as her cheeks turned a darker green from embarrassment. She giggled like a kid but quickly followed after him as she looked around her with sparkling eyes. But through her amazement, something crept up in her which she quickly recognized.

She looked back at Cas with nervous eyes then to the guests around them... or more specifically, their pockets and valuables they had on them. She had no clue how she was going to keep herself in check. Her fears escalated even more at the sight of a pyramid of champagne glasses and a bar not too far away. "Force help me." she muttered with a shaky breath as she instinctively reached for her flask... except it wasn't there.

She was going to be in big trouble at the end of this...

With Yenna's hand formally looped in between Adrian's arm, they all three would soon find themselves in a massive, multiple roomed castle-mansion. Whereas the outside looked like a huge castle, the interior was filled with the most expensive furniture, food and everything in between. Walls coated in gold, marble floor so spotlessly clean, that you would be able to see yourself.

Blood red-coloured drapes with gold woven into the lines, giving it a shimmer of a golden flowing sea. At least two waiters at each corner, while two always walked around the rooms, all carrying different types of snacks, cocktails or other types drinks. The first room was the largest, filled with people and the moment they all three entered, a couple of people looked their way. Especially Yenna was receiving a lot of glances from surrounding people.

However, it only stayed at glances, as it wouldn't be proper to stare, even if they were of higher standings. Leading the duos out of the entrance hall and into one of the many hundred rooms outfitted for the ball. Finding a spot with the least people, if that even could be called that. Turning to look at Cas and Yenna, "Alrighty my dearest, here's a map, provided by the host of all the areas we can visit. Keep a lookout and do try to have fun" said the Jedi Master and looked around, "I think I'll hit the dance floor, Yenna my dear, care to dance?" He asked her, holding a hand out for her, to lead the girl over to the nearby designated floor for waltzing.

As they entered the palace, Cas could sense nervousness echoing from Yenna in the Force making him wonder why - either it was because of the eyes on her, the mission itself or... old habits beginning to flare up. Matching her steps, he placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder and while he didn't speak, his brown eyes said everything: everything would be okay and to remain strong.

Glancing around at the castle's interior, instead of being awestruck, his expression was that of a frown. Everything... everything looked expensive inside, so much that it made him cringe - all these resources and materials were wasted on a needlessly large castle when they could have been put to better use in building more housing for others on Naboo... or people who were less fortunate on other less fortunate planets. Sighing, he shook his head - he was a Jedi, all of this was the will of the Force right? So he just had to accept it for now.

Cas accepted the map from Adrian and gave him a nod of appreciation. When he offered Yenna a dance, Cas' eyes darted between the two before he gave them both a smile "Have fun you two. Have her back no later than eleven, Valerius." he joked before flashing them a wink and turning around to disappear into the crowd of aristocrats. While he didn't tell them of where he was going, Cas would make his way to the food court for some "taste testing".

Oh, and... keeping an eye out for Lord Kargon. How hard could it be finding a guy who was 6'10? Dude would stick out like a sore thumb.

Yenna Adrian Valerius

 

[Yenna]

Yenna felt Cas' hand on her tiny shoulder and looked up to him. Her look of worry and panic faltered a little as a small smile spread across her lips. As they entered the establishment, Cas' reaction seemed to be similar to hers. Though she was confident that their reasons were miles apart. Thankfully Adrian managed to disrupt her worries and concerns for the moment as he gave Cas his orders and offered her a dance. She stared at him for a second the glanced at Cas before finally nodding with a smile. Though she wasn't ready to dance just yet.

With the aid of the Force she summoned a glass of champagne to her hand and downed it in a second, using the force to place the glass on a nearby table. "Now, ready, I am." she stated as she accepted his offered hand. Though she still looked rather hesitant over the idea of dancing between people. "Um... Master? Not a good dancer, I am. How this works, no clue, I have." she voiced her concerns as she walked with him. But she didn't pull away or back out. She simply hoped that he would give her a quick crash course on how waltzing, especially in a place as snazzy as this, worked.

Unfortunately for her, though, her old habits kept her on high alert for any easy targets. As she passed a lady in a stunning dress, she took note of the gems laced around her waist. Those had to be real. She struggled to believe that someone would cheap out with that in a place like this. Upon further investigation, she noticed her perfect opportunity. One of the strands were coming loose around a ruby. Biting her lower lip, she used the Force to give the gem a gentle tug down and just like that it was free and in her palm. With that much cloth and her laughter bubbling over with her current company, she doubted that she even noticed to begin with...

Leading Yenna through the crowd of guests, Adrian immediately knew what the little green girl was doing. Right as the jewellery plopped down into Yennas palm, it flew out of her hand again and into Adrian's hand, who didn't even look at his dancing partner. Placing the jewellery inconspicuously on a passing waiter's empty tray, before looked down at Yenna, "come now dearest, you're better than that" teased the Jedi Master. Leading Yenna into the cleared dancing floor, they stood right at the edge.

Giving the girl a quick crash course on how to waltzing, before leading her out into the deep end. Whether she got the hang of it immediately or it took a few attempts to find the rhythm, she would soon feel like flying on a sky with how smooth and in sync their dancing ended up being. Keeping his greyish-brown eyes locked to Yenna's eyes, the Jedi Master made their entire dance about her. "Very good, 1, 2, 3. 1, 2, 3. You're a natural darling" repeated Adrian with a grin, guiding the small girl around along all the other dancing partner.

They had received quite a lot of attention from other guests, the moment Adrian took Yenna out dancing. Some viewing it as a scandal, others finding it humorous a man like Adrian would even give a creature like Yenna any attention. None spoke out or comment of course, because that would be seen as improper in public. Privately or in a closed circle, was a completely different thing.

As Cas would look out for Lord Kargon, the force would suddenly warn him of something behind, yet when he looked around, no danger was coming at him. When he looked back to the front, the Jedi Knight would immediately see a gentleman, staring at him with great curiosity. A waiter walked passed him, blocking his view for just a fraction. When the waiter had passed by, Cas would see Lord Kargon standing instead of the person before. Smirking, Lord Kargon looked in the direction of where Adrian and Yenna were dancing, before looking back at the Jedi Knight, placing a finger over his mouth and then disappeared in the crowd.

After a while of stuffing various foods into his mouth, basking in the flavor of high classed food - he received a few judgemental looks from the partygoers which prompted the Jedi Knight's brown to furrow "What're you looking at?" he proclaimed with his mouth full, returning their judgemental looks with a dirty one. Once they backed off, he carried on his way by using the Force to levitate a small piece of food behind him and hover it above his head, tilting his head upward and opening his mouth Cas released his grip with the Force and allowed it to drop into his mouth. Chewing it, he said to himself "I could get used to this." with a chuckle before turning around to scan for more food across the table.

As he swallowed, he sensed a shift within the currents of the Force and immediately steeled himself, growing alert. Turning to look behind him, he saw nothing... at least no one matching Kargo's description but an ordinary looking man instead, Cas' eyes shrunk in suspicion as he scanned around the ball for what it could possibly be he was sensing through the Force. When a waiter passed him, obscuring his view for a moment, the man disappeared and instead a towering figure seemed to replace him and as Cas scanned his way up to meet this individual's it didn't take him long to realise who this was. The Kiffar swiftly reached for his lightsaber but before he could unclip it, Kargon was gone. Somewhere disguised amongst the crowd.

"Kark!" he exclaimed, not caring who heard it before raising his index and middle finger to his ear, tapping at the ear piece that rested on it. "Sorry to ruin your date you two. I found Kargon... then I lost him..." Cas explained, pushing his way throughout the crowd "I think he's headed your way." continuing to surf the crowd and make his way toward Yenna and Adrian, if he was indeed after the two it was best that they stay together now.
