Greeneyes signed again for ‘government’. “Republic,” they clarified, before fiddling with something in its palm. “You, I learned from the dangerous ones that wish to get you. I tell Republic agents, paid credits. Contract made. That is why I know you.”
Greeneyes then extended its palm towards Azodaa, revealing the holographic communicator embedded into the glove. It switched on, showing two directional indicators and giving small, quiet beeps. One of the indicators was rapidly moving, however. Then, a small object dropped from above, landing on the Kubaz’ back, peeking over its shoulder.
A BD unit, something very hard to acquire nowadays. Perhaps, this actually was the real Greeneyes. The Kubaz glanced towards the little droid, then gestured towards Azodaa, prompting a beep from the droid as it stared at her. It’s lens, too, were green. Greeneyes started to speak in its own tongue again.
“We are currently under contract from mutual friends in the Republic,” the droid spoke in a core accent in clear Basic in tune with Greeneyes. “A mercenary group that is somehow knows of your past allegiances and certain abilities. I had been waiting for them to show themselves, but I did not expect them to be so...” Both the droid and the Kubaz stopped for a second. “... unsubtle and direct.”

oh,thanks for the translator,i was struggling like Azodaa xD totally misinterpreted the message)
Azodaa took a step back quickly as the droid appeared,her hand hovering near the hilt of the lightsaber hidden under her cloak.So at least she wasn't being paranoid about someone being nearby,but she wasn't out of the clear yet it seemed.As the Kubaz's words were translated for her,her thoughts wandered back to the landspeeder she had narrowly escaped from mere moments ago.Could that driver be one of the people Greeneyes was talking about? How could she have been tracked? She had been so careful....Panic nearly overtook her at the thought of her background being known,but it wasn't fear for herself.Oamoro!But,no...she would be safe,at the heart of the New Republic forces..nowhere was more safe for her former apprentice."How was I tracked? I need to know so I don't make the same mistake twice."Azodaa finally spoke after remaining in silent thought long after the droid had finished translating. Her manner was calm now,after abating her fears quickly with help from the force."I...appreciate the warning,but you were seen as well,you should leave." Time to take your own advice,Azodaa.

(Then I’m doing my job, his Basic is absolute garbage lol)
Greeneyes grew stiff, as if hoping she wasn’t going to ask that particular question.
“Don’t worry,” the droid translated. “It wasn’t through any fault of your own — only the utterly paranoid and technical savvy can avoid Greeneyes. They were only able to discover Lothal was your destination with my help; they knew this and made me an offer to stay on to help them take down their mark. The pay was exorbitant, suspiciously so But Greeneyes kills only when he must and so I declined. So, they tried to kill me as well.” Greeneyes tapped his snout with a gloved finger. “They wanted silence. This is how I came to learn of you, how my Republic SIS contacts learned of them.”
“Many apologies, Azodaa. But this is personal and I will not leave until they are no more, and I have gotten my profit.”

welp,at least he tried xP )
"Who are th..."Azodaa cut her words off and quickly pressed herself into the alley wall,trying to blend in with shadows.The landspeeder had returned,slower this time,searching the main thoroughfare it had sped down earlier.It passed the entrance of the alley,apparently having not seen them,but Azodaa remained cautious."I understand how you feel....I just see no need in endangering the lives of ones who have no part in..."Azodaa trailed off,not wanting to get into it,there was no time for this,she had to make her decision,and quick.Stay and fight her pursuers,or run.

Greeneyes flattened himself against the wall, very easily blending in, while the droid dropped down his shoulder, before looking back down the thoroughfare. While he knew that these mercs and pirates were not the most quiet, but he didn’t quite think they would be trying so hard or would be so unreasonably persistent.
He snorted through the mask, before speaking again. “What do you want?” the droid translated. It was evident that he very much wanted to secure her help.

Run.Fight.Run...Fight.Azodaa balled her hands into fists against the wall as the words endlessly repeated through her skull. She had fought her whole life,didn't it make sense to be a bit selfish for once? But,if she ran,it would endanger others,and that went against everything she still believed of the Jedi way."I won't run."She whispered to herself,then louder: "I won't run,but I need to know who they are."She turned to Greeneyes,waiting expectantly. She wouldn't fight a faceless entity,if she did this,she needed to know everything about her enemy. Let's hope I don't regret it.

(Don't I know it, Hawk |D )
Now, if you're wondering, this guy actually does have a character sheet, it's just that I was using mobile most of the day and it's on my computer lol)
The Kubaz clasped his hands again, pleased, before it began warbling again. "They call themselves the Jekeathan Bloodwolves," the droid translated, finding its way up to his shoulder again. "They are brutes and thugs. Intelligence and long-term planning -" Greeneyes gestured condescendingly out towards the lane where the speeder that tried to run down Azodaa had been. "- are not their strongest points. However, they have cobbled together a moderately impressive resume, and have become quite good at milking it for all its worth, which appears to be the reason why their mysterious benefactor has commissioned them to eliminate you. For example, they have recently claimed to have killed Greeneyes."
He held out his palm again, showing her the hologram of the directional indicators -- one pointed towards the BD droid, while the other pointed out past Azodaa. "What they do not know is that I have adhered a tracking device to the speeder. I expected them to run along and try again with something with possibly more thought put into it." He closed his hand, shutting off the hologram. "I would not expect much utility out of this tracker, though. That speeder is a local taxi -- once they are done using it, they are likely to abandon it."

Jekeathan Bloodwolves...The name meant nothing to Azodaa,but that wasn't saying much as there were countless mercenary groups in the galaxy that operated much the same way. Based off what Greeneyes was saying, it did seem a bit desperate to try to run her over with a speeder,especially if they were aware of her abilities. Either they hadn't planned this out as thoroughly as they should,or this was merely the beginning. Most likely the latter. "Still,I believe we should look at the speeder,they may have left something behind.Even if they haven't,they could know about the tracker and plan to use it as a trap,which is good for us." Azodaa replied thoughtfully.If the mercenaries planned to use it as a trap,they could do the same.

"There might be the chance that there will be a trap," Greeneyes said through the droid, simultaneously signing for half. "They attempted to run me down as well, if you remember, and could expect me to somehow locate them."
"Unfortunately, that is all I currently know that's relevant at the moment. I believe most of the Bloodwolves have come to Lothal -- the price listed on your head by their benefactor is substantial indeed, so they are properly motivated to come together. Besides this, I don't know where their hideout is, nor the identity of their benefactor."

"Must be someone with funds to spare,or don't care what they spend.If thats the case,they must have quite the grudge against me...Imperial?"Azodaa muttered to herself,arms crossed as she thought through the situation. "It doesn't matter,what matters is how to proceed." She cast a thoughtful glance at Greeneyes as she considered all she had learned of them in the short span of time they knew each other.Apparently knew some things if they could get in with a dangerous mercenary group but still have allies in the Republic.That might work. "How do you feel about becoming the enemy of a Jedi?" Azodaa questioned,her blue eyes glittering as an idea suddenly came to mind.A trap,but for the mercenaries instead of themselves. "I may have an idea on how to find their location on Lothal. Would you consider yourself a good actor?"

Greeneyes stiffened, while the droid gave a single low trill as it looked towards its owner.
"That sounds like--" the droid began, before it was cut off by a sharp warble from Greeneyes. It looked between the Kubaz and Azodaa, before they both launched into a tirade of nasally curses, beeps, and whistles against each other that lasted for a good moment.
Finally, Greeneyes threw up their hands in exasperation, and the droid gave a victory trill. "I know what you are thinking," the Kubaz said through his translator, pointing at Azodaa. "I don't think it will work, but this extremely intelligent droid--" the Kubaz suddenly looked sharply towards the BD unit, which swayed around softly as if it wasn't twisting around Greeneyes' words on the fly. "- evidently thinks that it's a wonderful idea. But it's extremely risky, and most definitely to myself. They know me, and they tried to kill me for not joining them. They are not likely going to believe that I just suddenly had a change of heart, but they just might if I could somehow show them that we fought and I almost had you. An accessory, your weapon, something that belongs to you."

Azodaa bit her lip to stop herself from chuckling at the exchange between Greeneyes and the droid,catching the gist of the remarks made on either side. When the Kubaz turned her attention to her though,her face got serious again as she listened. It didn't make her happy either,putting this new ally in danger,but their options seemed limited along with their time,so it was the best she could come up with on the fly.Unless...but no,there wouldn't be time to get them involved. "I understand your hesitance,but I also appreciate that fact you are willing to help me."Azodaa nodded sharply to Greeneyes." They would suspect us right away if you had my lightsaber,it would too obvious if you were able to take my only weapon so easily.Instead.."She trailed off,glancing at her person,deep in thought.That was the only thing that would work. She grasped at the sash on the front of her belt and deftly removed it and held it up towards Greeneyes."This would be our best option.Personal,and easily identifiable as mine since each sash is unique to the Togruta that made it."

Cole frowned even more and looked towards the ship. Mmm clever sabotage the ship to keep us grounded while they got away. "Can you walk trooper?" He questioned tilting his head to the side slightly. "Where are they now?" He asked knowing the Jedi had to be near by. Cole wanted to see them before they disappeared.

Cole frowned as he turned to face her. She wasn't the Jedi but there was something about her that made him curious. "Seems the captain underestimated you and your Jedi friend." He places his hand on the hilt of his lightsaber. "Know that I won't make that same mistake." He could sense a certain darkness within her and wondered if he could persuade said darkness to come out.

Greeneyes regarded the sash as he, surprisingly, gingerly took it. It was of course very hard to tell through the mask, but it was almost as if the being was appraising it, or maybe even admiring the workmanship.
He warbled as he deposited it into a hidden pouch under his shroud, and the BD unit translated. "I can make it work using this, as long as they do not worry about the series of coincidences. What will be your part in this?"

Azodaa noted the apparent reverence Greeneyes showed her sash as he took it,raising her brow in slight surprise.Curious to find one in this field of work acknowledge her culture in this way. She pondered the question next presented to her,lost for words momentarily as she hadn't put much thought into the answer yet. She would have to be nearby to observe when Greeneyes met up with the mercenaries in case things took a turn for the worse,she knew.When he was actually inside the base though,gathering intel,what would her role be? "We'll have to keep in contact when you infiltrate their base,but I'll try to follow you secretly just in case they have jammers in place. Do you know anything of the groups structure? Such as any flaws they may have in security measures?"
