REGISTERING NEW VISITORS TO COURESANT
Ship- Law Class patrol ship
Name: Justice
Home Port: Bonadan
Passengers: 2 droids
- Owners: None
- Freed designations
K7-9
Classification: Guardian class droid
Owner: Officer Zed Nine
Designation: Law designation license
The rythme of for metal feet was heard as Zed Nine and the Dog like guardian droid K7-9 passed through the customs gate. The two droids had on badges that designated them as specialist in law enforce ment. Giving them the right to often work as consultants with a planets local law forces. Zed's was on his chest and K7-9's was on his forehead.
The Kseven was a curious droid as a counter part to the Zed class droid he was perfectly suited. His ability to mark a scent was a invaluble tracking ability to zed. It was even armed with a belly gun that would retract in the proper situation.
They move on. The dog sniffing the air. He gets the smell of oil in the air. The scent of a machine shop. A good place for a droid to get a oil bath. Turning to Zed as they walk he makes a pitifull little whine. Sending the data to his counter part at the same time.
"Sorry boy we have bussiness to attend to first." The dog hung his head in dissipointment. A oil bath would have been nice.
Unlike most other droids Kseven had the mind and tendencys of a dog rather then of a human like many astromechs and other such droids. Making his actions a bit more irradict.
The pair walk through the upper lowwer levels where they landed. This was just above the shaddiest areas of the lowwest levels of the city. In the lowwest levels there is no semblance of law. Lawlessness rules.
Here in the upper lowwer levels there is a bit of a prescence of law enforcement but still not much. Had the pair gone into the lowwer levels of the city they may not have gotten out with out a fight. That area tends to not like the 'law' in any shape. And no one would think twice about trying to scrape a law droid.
There were shady areas about here that they were investigating. There were rumors of a terrorist setting up for some thing big. Zed did not know where but he intended to find out.
As they traveled the dog like droid was committing scents to memory. Scaning for bomb residue and such things. Every scent helps in a puzzle. Or at least that is what Zed Nine kept telling him.

The city bussled with activity. There were more targets on a planet such as this then he could count. The pair of droids had been Over all of the contacts that they could find.
Most that the local police know is that there are some people around here talking about that there is going to be a big mass bombing compaign by a terrist organization. But no one knows where or when the perp well strike.
From all the sources that he talks to he cannot even determine who is in charge of the operation. All of the scum know that some one is trying to do something but no one knows who.
It is not the hutts. He would have heard some thing about the pay ment thtough his channels on Narshadda and nal-Hutta that he has through the Vinda Corp.
It was almost as if he was following shadows. Some one capaple of earasing every thing from the minds of those tha tthey encounter. Although there is no sense to that reasoning. But then again do allot of crimes have to have a motive.
Police engrams and programs say no they do not. the logic does not make sense. But the mind of a criminal is rarely logical. At least not to any one but them.
The street is allive with activity. When K7-9 stops in his tracks. The droid looks up long enough to see that his counter part has caught the scent of some thing. The guardian dog like droid looks at the Zed model droid With his heavy trench coat armor hanging too his knees.
The two do a quick data transfer.
----------------------------------------------------------
Scent scan: Explosive detected.
----------------------------------------------------------
That said the droid made a emergency call to the local athourities.
"All local plice units, This is a Civilian Law Unit, My counter part has detected explosives in the emmidiate vicinity please send back up and innitiate evac procedures!" he did not wait for a reply.
k7-9 is hot on a trail The smell is coming from a lowwer level. below them. "Time to fly little buddy."
The guardian law droid opened two compartments in it's sides with a whir of servo motors. From them came a pair of repulsors. Activated the droid hovered into the air. He flew over the zed model's head and proceded to the crime scene.
Zed Grabs hold of the droid and the two make a controled jump off the building. The Guardian droid providing enoug lift to manuver them into a garage where the scent is strongest.
HOver cars are all about them. And the droid makea frenzied search. Looking about until they find the source. Three cars filled with thermal detonators and several organice explosive made from common cleaning chemicals from the looks of it when the guardian unit broke down the chemical composistion.
Zed Ran it to the main law enforcment officers on his comm but got nothing but static. And called for any local back up. All around the area there were law enforment officecer strung about the floor. K7 nudges one with his nose. Not getting a response. Or detecting a heart beat with enhanced hearing. They were dead. about 10 that he could see. All had varying wounds a quick med scan from his sensor showed a disturbing death. Snaped knecks. Cuts that cuterized in impact leaving no blood.
Quick clean and professional. A low growl emmited from his partener. The dog like droid was growling at a shadowed corner of the garage. The droid took out his under arm blaster from its holster. Along with a combacted gungan energy sheild from his back. Extended and ativated hi calls out.
"Come out with your hands up you have violated a crime scene come out of the shadows with you hands raised." His motion sensors detected the moment of a humanoid species unknown. Then he got a response he was afraid of the whir-his of a acivated light saber.
K7 was the first to act. Unshething his claws and teeth so that he was in full attack mode he leaps at the assalent. The steel dog is knocked to the side by some unseen force just meters from the perp.
" Seven!!!!!! Stupid mutt." He cried he knows that he is supposed to wait on his cue to act. He fires a barrage of fire againest a hooded figure. HIs laser bolts are merely deflected back at him. Some bounce off his sheild and back at the assaent only to be shot back at him. Several of the shots graze his armored legs and arms.
"I hate light sabers." Droping his gun his switches to stun batton. switching the weapong on. as the Assaulent is on top of him. He blocks one shot with the sheild and tries to hit him with the batton. Missing the Force user gets under his arm and heads for the open air.
Looking behind him the droid sees a digital counter moving slowly down to zero. "frill!!!!! The bomb!!"
The droid grabs his falling counter part and makes for the same exit as the bomb is going to blow.
He jumps from the opening going in to a free fall. the two land on a passing hover cab with a thud. the shockwave meeting the pair shortly after. This was getting more dangerous by the minute.

C4 was on his way from a clear defeat of the infamous Dark sith six. The sith proved little more then a annoyane one that he would deal with later in depth after the shame of a defeat was great enough.
There was some interesting news from Couruscant. A bombing of one of the main citys. Taking down a whole tower and others with it. Stranger yet the officer that was said to engage the bomber was none other then Zed Nine. he read on. All evidence of the battle points to one of the force using groups. A rogue member or even a new group.
Well if this is really a dark force user then It is his duty to track them down. Especially with the bounty on their heads.
Another message comes in on another channel. Code indicates that it is from Vonta. His creater and programer.
Innitiating holo recording
"This is Capatain Vonta Horn of the Observer fleet. To all that this mission may concern. I am in route to the Teta system becuase of force eminations that I Picked up in avision some time ago. I know of the long history of this system and ask for all of you to trust me again as you have in the past. I must seek out this challenge and make it to the end of what ever it is that lies before me.
As it is I well make contact if it is required.
The force knows that I count on all of you for back up.
But this is a request as a friend and a order as your commanding officer. Hold position until I send for you or I return.
End recording......."
Recording ended
Force users of a unknown source and a attack on this magnitude. It seemed like unlikely coincidence. But they may need vonta's council to meet this new threat. Setting course for couruscant.

The city planet was in site. On the trip over in a rapid cross referenceing of his droid sources in varies parts of coruscant he can find no unusual traces of dark jedi activity of late. Only the incident with Zed nine. In all of the time that he spent hunting sith he never knew them to be this quiet between hunts.
He is traveling in his new ship the yavin. Not much to look at the ship was more then it appeared. It had a wonderful amount of hidden weaponry. A cloak and even a cargo bay large enough to stow the shadow hunter. In the port he was to meet the law droid.

Zed stood in the Port. The shadow hunter was now where to be seen. C4 had sent him a encoded message. One specifically attuned to the droids that were programed to vonta horn. So that they were the only ones that could decrypt it.
The space port that they choose to meet was crowded another thing that the droid thought was strange. He looks through the manifests. There was no sign of any strange ships.
There were 2 Corvettes, 5 Yt freighters of various classes, a dozen or so shuttles, And a StarSaber. That was one that he was not familiar with. NOt much to look at. But with the capacity to hold another ship about the size of the shadow hunter. The Solo Syndicate made these ships exclusively.
The Bounty hunter did have connections to the recently decease Jaina solo Darklighter. Could C4 have come in it. All of a sudden the Droid dog K7-9 started growling. "What is it K7?" The droid was designed to be a watch dog looking for some thing unusual. And he found some thing..
He looked in the direction that the droid dog was growling. There was no one there but a very large wookie. The droid begain to think that he counter part was malfunctioning when the wookie spoke in basic.
"Smart dog, I give him credit for seeing through my disguise." The Wookie gave him a smirk.
"C.....4?" The droid gave a short questioning sound slow becuase of his unsurity.
"In the holographic flesh." The 'wookie' answers.
Zed puts a hand on his counter parts head. Signaling to it that this one is no danger. Not matter how strange it seems. "Am I assume that you have a holo-image disguiser?"
"The best money can buy." He puases to stratch an itch on his kneck. "But I could have done with out the behavior subroutines. Makes me feel like I have real biological reactions. Letting me feel it. I prefer feeling nothing to all these sensations."
"So what is the deal here. I hear that you have sith in the area." The two begain walking towards the droids hover car.
"We have some thing going on here. Some force users are puting us under siege. TArgeting Vinda corp as far as I know. For reasons that I can only guess. I followed the bits of info that I gathered to couruscant and next thing that I know I get blown out a high rise by some force weilding terrorists." Zed Pops open the door remotely. K7 jumps in the back.
"And you want me here why?" The wookie asks.
"You are the formost hunter of dark force users. Who best to help me hunt a force user that a veteran at it." He finishes.
"Point made, I get paid?" he asks.
"IN full. Vinda Corp is flitting the bill as always." The droid was the VC security head. So he makes sure that this is a formost concern.
"Good." The doors to the car close as the droid droids the image disguse revealing his true nature. The almagam of A dark trooper droid with Vong techknolodgy. The dog yips in surprise. As the ship takes off.
