Jek couldn’t help the sharp intake of breath as Jax made mention of Aeris, and he could do nothing but think of her. He had involuntarily closed his eyes let the memories of her and An-Lok wash over him, unconsciously sending ripples through the Force. He recited the Jedi Code quickly in his head, then looked up at Jax as they ship was being set into Hyper Space where they were on Auto-Pilot. “My only thought about what to do with the ship, would be for you to hide it on a planet. Store it with a hanger, have the council pay for it, and when it comes time to make our escape, we return to the planet and the ship. This way it stays safe, and you don’t risk losing it to the Empire.” He said, leaning back into the chair.<br/><br/>“I also think that we want to be free of Jedi for…” he trailed off and frowned slightly as he gave it a little thought. “We should want to be free of the Jedi for that very reason, freedom. The Jedi have what others say are too many rules and restrictions, and we want to live our lives without such things. Yes, the Sith are likely to have their own code we will likely have to learn, but rumor has it that they don’t have much else.” He told him, wondering if he would end up agreeing with him. It wasn’t the best reason for abandoning the Jedi, but it was reason enough and would hopefully be accepted once they found the Sith. “As for strengthening our Force bond, I think you are on the right track. We stayed close as children, not just us and them all the time, for all of our training it had been the four of us. The bond is still there, I can feel its traces as I’m sure you can. Yes, she may have strengthened it but it was bound to have developed either way.” He added, now shifting to sit forwards.<br/><br/>“Did you want to mediate here, or somewhere else?” he asked, already getting himself comfortable in the co-pilot chair. “I believe that this, meditating is one of the best ways to strengthen the Force Bond.” He said, taking slow and deep breaths as he continued to exude a calm and complete trust in the Force.<br/><br/>*******<br/><br/>An-Lok turned to look at Aeris over her shoulder as they were leaving the Cantina, and she laughed while giving her a grin “Yes, yes. If you wish to share, I ordered more than enough.” She told her, leading the way towards the loading docks on the west side of the Cantina. She pulled her hood up over her head and the lengths of fabric around her legs billowed in a menacing manner as she marched forwards. The metal hilt of her lightsaber glinted in the low light of the moon’s atmosphere. “I don’t know which Darth Revan has planned, but either sound as though they would end the war. Can you imagine? No longer having to worry about the Jedi trying to hunt us down, bring us to their corrupt vision of justice.” She said, fully disillusioned to the Order they had once been a part of. Indifferent to the very people that had raised them from infancy.<br/><br/>An-Lok marched right up to the commander, who impressed her by not cowering away from her in fear. She knew two Sith Lords approaching with their hoods up could strike a very imposing figure. “We need space in the cruisers hangers to Aeris’ ship. She is coming with us, and we are making stops on these planets.” She told him, turning to hold her hand out for the data pad the other woman had been given. She looked it over and scrolled through so that it only showed the planets that held the Force Sensitives waiting to be picked up. She did not let him keep the device, snatching it away after a moment to give it back to her old friend. “You will make the space, and we will make these stops.” She told him, clearly leaving little room for argument. She then turned to walk away from him a few steps so that the two women could talk.<br/><br/>“How long will it take you to get your ship? Are you comfortable docking on the cruiser while it is docked?” she asked her, waiting for an answer before nodding. “Did you want me to come with you?” she added, before her eyes tracked behind the other. “Ooh, that’s the delivery. I need to ensure they put it with my things or the soldiers are going to take it.” She told her, starting to step around her. “I’ll seek you out later.” She said, hurrying away to someone clearly from the Cantina they had just left.
