(OOC) Closed to any original Rogue Jedi that may have known Ade-Ay before his dissapearence from the Rogue Jedi Order. This is time set before he left. Please do not post until I state it is present day, if anyone plans to post. I will state it when he's back in the time of... now. Haha.

(IC)

<span style="color:teal;">He was lost. Lost in his own world, gone from the Rogue Jedi. He left in need of finding himself. Ade-Ay needed to find the person he once started his life as. He left as an apprentice to a Jedi Master.

Ade-Ay Visic was in hyperspace, on flight from Ossus (The Rogue Jedi Order world.) to the planet Tatooine. There he would be able to find a place to hide out, and train. There, he would spend three years of his life with nature, with the outdoors. It seemed almost impossible that he would one day come back to be a Jedi Master. In his ship, The Chronium, he was standing up in the back with his R4 unit in it's designated area. That area was the one place he would be for a while, trying to find out why his ship was being completely slow.

Ade had no experience on fixing or repairing freighters of this sort. Especially his, the old YT-2400. It was beat up, he pawned it off a man years ago. It was a bad deal. The ship could barely make it to hyperspace, let alone land. He just knew how to fly it. At the moment, that's all that mattered too.

Ade walked back and flipped off the hyperdrive and coasted his way to orbit of Tatooine. He descended to the planet's surface and landed in at Mos Eisley. He walked down with his droid, and was greeted by a few men. Ade-Ay payed them for the hangar space and left the hangar to the streets. There were lots of shops and stands along the side, people walking to and fro. You can't walk through Mos Eisley without getting shouldered by someone on your way through it.

Ade-Ay, with the money had had saved managed to get a few weeks of dry rations. He also noticed a man near of of the small stands, standing next to e dirty speeder. He could tell the man was actually trying to get rid of it by the look upon his face.</span>

"How much for the speeder?" <span style="color:teal;">Ade asked.</span>

"I'll trade it to you for that droid you have there." <span style="color:teal;">The man replied.</span>

"Uhh..."

"How about if I add in an extra bag of fruit?"

"Deal."

<span style="color:teal;">He managed to get some more food along with the speeder. He had no personal connection with the droid, so he wasn't worried about it much. Ade-Ay now had to see what kind of job he could find on tatooine.</span>

<span style="color:teal;">Riding in his speeder back through the markets of Mos Eisley, he saw something he didn't se before. It was a poor man sitting inbetween two little stands. He held a sign that read. "Labor Needed." Ade jumped to it and parked the speeder a couple stands stands off. He walked back to the man and bent down, then spoke.</span>

"I can help." <span style="color:teal;">Ade said.</span>

"Really?"

<span style="color:teal;">The man stood up and spoke to Ade-Ay in a tone that almost made him sound more poor than he really was. Ade_Ay stood up as well.</span>

“The job is repairing and fixing machinery, speeders, druids and so on.”

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay shook his head.</span>

”I know nothing in that field of work.”

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay was beginning to leave when the man spoke to Ade-Ay again.</span>

“I’m willing to train!”

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay whipped his head around and looked at the man in the face with a huge smile, as if he was ten years old again.</span>
“I’ll work for you.” Ade replied nodding.

“Good.” <span style="color:teal;">The man said.</span>

“What’s my pay?”

“I really have nothing else besides a place to stay, food water, and clothing.”

“That’s all I’m asking for.”

“Good, you can start right away if ya like.”

“Yes, that would be great.” <span style="color:teal;">Ade said with another huge smile.</span>

“Okay, it’s not a far walk. I live a few miles out that way, in the suburbs.”

“I have a speeder…”

“Good, it will be a short ride then. Let’s go.” <span style="color:teal;">The man spoke to Ade-Ay excitedly that he had a speeder.

Ade-Ay wondered if the man’s house was big, or small. He wondered whether the food on tatooine was edible. He knew it was possible to eat it, just not sure if he could live by it. He thought to himself:

Wow, a place to stay already and a job on top of that. I’ve only been here a couple hours…

Ade-Ay’s thinking went on as they jumped in the speeder and took off to the suburbs. Every few minutes the man would point somewhere, and Ade would turn that way with the speeder. They had a nice conversation during the ride also.</span>

“You know, I didn’t catch your name. I’m Ade-Ay Visic. You can call me Ade.”

“I’m Mike Gellian. I live with my wife in a fairy sized home.”

“Ah. Nice to meet you Mike.”

“Same to you Ade.”

“Have you been here long?” <span style="color:teal;">Mike asked. Mike could tell he hadn’t because Ade made one little mistake. He forgot to change clothes.</span>

“No. About a few hours.”

“Oh. You’re a Jedi, I can tell. Let’s get you out of those clothes so no one will know. It’s not a bad thing, but I know you’re trying to hide out and that’s fine. We’re almost there. Make a right here.” <span style="color:teal;">Mike said pointing towards a few homes on the left.</span>

“Alright.” <span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay speed up and then slowed down right in front of the homes.</span>

“Come on in, I’ll introduce you to my wife.”

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay followed.</span>

<span style="color:teal;">Inside, he found a very nice home. It was a HOME. Not a nice house, but home. It had pictures on the walls. It had a very nice kitchen. Ade noticed all of this right as he stepped into the door.</span>

“Come this way.” <span style="color:teal;">Mike motioned Ade-Ay towards the hall.</span>

“Guess who’s home?” <span style="color:teal;">Mikes spoke again, this time yelling into the hall.</span>

<span style="color:teal;">A woman ran from one of the bedrooms and gave mike a big hug, and a kiss. Then she stopped for a second.

Ade-Ay’s hands were holding together with his arms down. It was how learned to stand politely.

The woman noticed Ade-Ay. She poked mike and whispered, although Ade could clearly hear what she was saying.</span>

“Who is he?” <span style="color:teal;">She said.</span>

“Oh, let me introduce you to Ade-Ay Visic.” <span style="color:teal;">Mike said aloud.</span> “He will be our repair man for the business, with a few lessons that is.”

“Well, it’s very nice to meet you Mr.Visic.” <span style="color:teal;">She said walking over, with her hand held out.</span>

“Oh, please call me Ade.” <span style="color:teal;">He said shaking her hand.</span>

“I'm Alara, I’m guessing you will be living here for a while right?”

“Yes, I guess I will.” <span style="color:teal;">Ade said looking mike in the eyes.</span>



<span style="color:teal;">~*^*~~*^*~~*^*~~*^*~~*^*~~*^*~~*^*~~*^*~</span>


<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay would live there, learning to repair droids, speeders, freighters, anything mechanical for three years he would live there. In the darkness on nights, he would train. He would train outside in the back, where no one would notice him. He would meditate every day for hours at a time.

Living there was easy for Ade-Ay Visic. The cooking was delicious. The bed was nice. Everything you could ask for right? No… Ade-Ay had found himself there… who he really was. He found he was Ade-Ay Visic, just as he had started. He found he was a Rogue Jedi. Nothing else.

There, he would write what he believes in. It sounds primitive, but it was on purpose. It was for simplicity of life. In his writing, everything could be understood. It was SIMPLE. His own code. His own rules for life:

I am Pariah, of the Jedi Order.
I am now Rogue Jedi, of the Rogue Jedi Order.
I am Protector of Innocence.

I live like me.
I fight like me.
I think like me.
I am Ade-Ay Visic.

I am Rogue…
1) because the Jedi’s principles are wrong.
*NOT being able to love is like not being able to live.
*NOT being able to make the first move is like not being able to stand up for yourself.
*NOT making your own decisions is wrong.
-I want freedom.
2) because I protect the innocent.
*The Innocent deserve to live, my job is to give that to them.
*The Innocent will not suffer; I will risk my life for them.
-I want Justice.
3) because I choose my future.
*The Jedi Order will not decide on my future; I will.
-I want my own future.
4) because I will rebel the Jedi Order
*I am Rogue.
-I want life.

My Code:
Nothing controls me; I do.
Nothing will stop me; except me.
I will stand up for myself; and for the innocent.
I will not follow the Jedi Code; I am Rogue.

The Rogue Jedi Order is my path.</span>

Present Day

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay was on the back porch, staring at the stars and planets he once knew so well.</span>

"You miss home..." <span style="color:teal;">Alara spoke to him, standing at the back door.</span>

(OOC) Please do not make a post until i have made one more after this.

(IC)

"Yeah, too much."

"I think it is time. You need to go home the soonest chance you get. I'm sure the other Jedi miss you."

<span style="color:teal;">Ade shook his head.</span>

"I've been here for five whole years, how could I go back? How can I be expected to go home now?"

"Exactly Ade-Ay." <span style="color:teal;">She said, sitting down next to him.</span> "That's why you must go."

<span style="color:teal;">Ade shook his head slowly, with a sorrowful face. He knew it was time to leave for years now, he just couldn't do anything about it.</span>

"Your life is a Jedi, not some repairman on Tatooine. You are so good at fixing things, you are the best repairman in the universe, but we both know you are a better Jedi."

"You may be right… but I left them without warning. I didn't say anything about leaving. I just left."

"May I ask you something?" <span style="color:teal;">Alara asked.</span>

"I know what you're going to ask… I can feel it."

"Then why did you leave home?"

"I needed to fine who I was, somewhere I could train in private. This way I would prove to the rest who I am, a Rogue like them."

"Rogue?" <span style="color:teal;">She questioned.</span>

"A Rogue Jedi. They are a band of Jedi who don't believe in the Jedi Code. Let me show you what I've found while I was here."

<span style="color:teal;">Ade handed her a datapad he had acquired a few years back.</span>

"A datapad?"

"No, read it."

<span style="color:teal;">She read it slowly and carefully, then turned and looked Ade in the eyes. The data pad had his own code of living on it.</span>

"You do belong with the rest of them. It's time you go back, they miss you I'm sure. Mike and I acquired a freighter for you to go home with, it's pretty beat up. It will take you where you belong, with the other Rogue Jedi."

"I can't take a freighter, you can't afford something like that. It costs too much to give away, and you know it." Ade said harshly.

"Yes, we can." She said nodding her head. "About a week ago we received a big job we didn't tell you about. We are fixing up five hundred droids and doing memory erasures on them. The freighter was free. It was dropped off about an hour ago before you got home from the shop. It's around on the other side of the house. It is yours to take once you get it running."

"Thank you so much Alrara." <span style="color:teal;">Ade said, hugging her for the first time.</span>

"Any time Ade-Ay, you deserve it." <span style="color:teal;">She said.</span>

"You realize I'm not going home until all the droids have my stamp of approval right?"

"Unfortunately I did know that. I knew I shouldn't have said anything about them. Mike has finished about a quarter of them. They are all in the underground storage area. You may use any parts from the junk yard you need to use for that freighter."

"Alara, I can't thank you enough."

"You don't have to." <span style="color:teal;">She said softly.

Alara kissed Ade-Ay on the cheek, then got up and walked inside. Ade walked around to the other side of the house and saw the beat-up freighter standing in front of him. It looked a bit smaller than most freighters though. The freighter looked different, he knew it couldn't have been manufactured. He knew it was a custom job by where most of the items were placed. It's usually easier to build freighters on an assembly line, where it can be easily put together. By the look of it, the curves of everything didn't look like him. It was custom from top to bottom.

The next month would be hectic for Ade-Ay. He would fix fifteen droids a day, then find some time for fixing up the friehgter, and to top it off train. He usually trained with some droids he build to shoot at him, or do certain attacks. It wasn't like real training, but it was good enough.</span>

(OOC) You are free to post... if you want.


(IC)
<span style="color:teal;">Alara and Mike were outside looking at Ade-Ay atop his freighter. They were talking softly, beneath the sound of the tools Ade had running. They spoke soft enough so Ade-Ay couldn't hear them.</span>

"He is the most hardest and damned most determined man I have ever seen." <span style="color:teal;">Mike said.</span>

"Yes, I know. He has done this for five whole years too! Doing the same thing for five years is a lot of determination. He is thirty-four years old, he doesn't belong here." <span style="color:teal;">Alara said.</span>

"He doesn't give up does he?"

"No."

"I will be sad to see him go like this, especially for how good he is at repairing things. I've taught him all I know."

"We have to let him go though, we both know that Mike."

"Yes…"

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay turned around from atop the freighter to see the couple down on the ground several meters away. Ade yelled out to Alara and Mike.</span>

"Let's see if It'll run!"

<span style="color:teal;">Ade jumped down and walked the platform to the inside. Mike and Alara stood outside. Seconds later the sound of freighter engins picked up. It was running with a deep, smooth hum to it. Ade made it work. He shut it down then walked back out to the Alara and Mike.</span>

"It works!" <span style="color:teal;">Ade yelled out to the two.

Mike and Alara smiled to him.</span>

"I think it's time now Ade…" <span style="color:teal;"> Alara said softly.</spanb>

"I need one more night to get everything done." <span style="color:teal;">Ade stated.</span>

"Okay, that's fine. You are always welcome here." <span style="color:teal;">Alara said smiling again.</span>

"Just not too often!" <span style="color:teal;">Mike said chuckling.

They all went inside and at dinner. The night went by quickly. Ade-Ay was already up before the suns packing his things. He walked outside with his stuff to load it into the freighter. He had loaded some things from the junk pile earlier. He walked outside and met Mike at the doorway to the house.</span>

"Did you finish the droids?" <span style="color:teal;">Mike spoke softly with a morning tone.</span>

"Yes, I did. They all have my stamp of approval. Including the ones you did."

<span style="color:teal;">Mike laughed.</span>

"Okay, good. Well, I guess I will see you another day."

"Yes, one day you will see me again."

"Good-bye Mike." <span style="color:teal;">Ade said.</span>

"Good-bye Ade-Ay." <span style="color:teal;">Mike said.</span></>

[i]<span style="color:teal;">The shook hands and Ade-Ay was about to leave. That was when Ade felt another person behind mike. </span>

"Alara…" [i]<span style="color:teal;">Ade said looking over Mike's shoulder..</span></>

[i]<span style="color:teal;">Mike turned around. </span></>

"You didn't think you were going to leave without giving mye a hug did you Ade?" [i]<span style="color:teal;"> Alara spoke, stepping into the light. Ade-Ay smiled.

Alara walked up and hugged Ade-Ay.</span></>

"Good-bye Ade-Ay!" [i]<span style="color:teal;"> She said with a tear running down her face. </span></>

"Bye Alara" [i]<span style="color:teal;"> Ade replied.

Ade turned around and walked into the fairl-nice looking freighter. Without looking back, he walked up the platform and lifted off. The freighter dubbed "The Scourge" faded above the morning sunrise.</span></>

"Good luck Ade." [i]<span style="color:teal;>Mike said quietly. Alara kissed him, then they walked back inside their home, they would later retire from work without Ade-Ay.</span></>

[i]<span style="color:teal;"> Ade set course for Ossus. Soon enough, his ship was coming up upon the planet. </span></>

Kamon happened to be in the Ossus Space Control building at the time of the ships arrival. He was filling out papers for his ship.

Kamon looked up as someone in the back hailed the vessel. A screen showed all the ships data on the screen, and Kmaon studied it.

The name was familiar. The Scourge. The problem was he couldn't quite place it. His memory of the ship was strong, but his memory of the owner was not.

He stood up and walked to the counter. Handing his papers to the attendant, he spoke.

"Miss. Who is the owner of the freighter coming into the planet?"

"I's registered to an Ade-Ay Visic, Kamon."

"Ade-Ay Visic! He's been gone for ages. What landing pad has he been assigned to?"

"44A at the central starport."

"Thanks."

Kamon rushed out of the building and ran down the street. Some people shook angry fists at him, but he ignored them. He was in a hurry.

He reached the starport and rushed inside. Lucky for him, 44A was very near the entrance he had used. Stepping over to it, he opened the door and walked inside. He wanted to be the first to greet Ade.

<span style="color:teal;">Aproaching Ossus, he was getting second thoughs. "What if they rejected me?" he thought. Forget it, there was no way of finding out without landing. He was hailed by the Ossan Parliament headquarters. He was relayed an assigned landing bay, it was the same number as the one his first freighter had been assigned to. Ade floated the freighter down through the atmosphere of Ossus. He landed on the 44A landing area. You could hear the sound of the cold metal touch his ship's landing gear as it hit the bay.

The Scourge ran nicely to Ade's surprise, considering how old it looked. He got up and grabbed his bag of things, hoping he would be welcome again. Since he left, his lightsaber had changed AND his clothing had changed. He was was wearing a Black Jacket and dark pants. He looked young, though he was thirty-four now. As a matter of fact, his thirty-fifth birthday was in a week. With his lightsaber on his dark brown belt and his bag strapped across his right shoulder, he walked to the landing platform.</span>

"Here goes..."

<span style="color:teal;">The hiss of the platform emerged from the sound of everything else around his freighter, from inside Ade-Ay walked onto the landing area.</span>
