Knight Trial

I went into the Jedi Council and received my Jedi Knight trial. I am to go to the Drazkel System and look into a rumer of a Padawan for sale at an auction, and save said Padawan if it is found to be the truth.

I headed to my ship that I had named Oakland, which confused my Master, but when you get a Lancer-class pursuit craft with the colors of the Oakland Raiders, (Black and Silver), and your a Jedi, you can not name it The Raiders. The starship, Balitar-class swoop and armor all had the same color scheme, so I'm thinking the 6 Mandalorians were from DeathWatch. I then piloted a course for the Drazkel System and then went about planning how I was going to pull off this mission alone.

I know that this system is run by group calling themselves Xrexus Cartel, I believe they get their name from their leader, Xev Xrexus. I know if I walk in as a Jedi I will either have to fight from the get go, or end up like the Padawan they may be holding. I think I may finally be able to put that Madilorian Armor to good use.

Okay, so disguise myself as Mandalorian check. I'll need to keep my lightsaber in my inventory, so I'll be down to blaster pistols and a rifle. Plus side, I may finally get to enjoy using the jetpack without a fear of getting caught by my Master.

Breaking out of hyperspace in the Drazkel system near the planet Drazkel, I see a orbital spacecraft above the planet that seems to be having heavier than normal traffic. I decide that this is the place to be if I want to find the rumored Padawan, so I cloak my force presents and head to dock at the spacecraft.

Apon disbarking Oakland I realize my bounty hunter disguise was definitely they way to go. I see a weird Hutt straight away, he is different than normal Hutta, instead of being a fat slug, he looks like he is on steroids and is carried around buy a mechanical spider type droid craft thing, instead of the standard pleasure cruise hovercraft.

I'm taken out of my pondering when I hear a commotion near the back of what looks like the auctioning platform. It sends goose bumps down my back when I see a Zabrak being lead out from the back area. This Zabrak is a person I could never forget, Darth Maul. I'm glad I cloaked my force presents or I would be noticed. I can feel his dark side corruption from across the room, he feels like a chained dog with rabies ready to attack anything at the slightest provocation.

If Maul is staying for the auction, for the alleged Padawan, after being behind the stage then I know there is a real Padawan for sale. Xev Xrexus, a pale human female with blond hair and blue eyes, stands before the gathered crowd and announced the beginning of what she calls the first known Jedi Padawan auctioning. She has her thugs drag out the female Padawan that she introduces as Eldra Kaitis, last surviver of a crashed diplomatic shuttle.

I have credits I took from the Madilorian bounty hunters, but not enough to complete with the prices these people are throwing out, so I sit in the back and wait to see who wins, thinking to use the force to convince them to give me Kaitis. The end of the auction comes down to a group of Trandosian hunters and Moogans lead by Jee Kra, I only know his name because he wins. I go to follow him when I notice Maul already gone, so I think it may be smarter to hold back and wait for Maul to make his move, no need to be everyone's enemy when I can narrow it down to just Maul.

Jee Kra and his crew are barely on the docks to leave when Maul and his crew kill them and drag the Padawan to the nearest shuttle. As Maul leaves in their stolen shuttle, Xev comes storming out onto the docks to see what happens and, yells to her thugs to shut that shuttle down. She then turns to the crowd of bounty hunters that where still on the docks and say, "You were going to pay for the privilege of killing the Padawan, Now I will pay who ever brings me her and the Zabrak's head."
