She was on her third drink, and the guys here always like to by her more. The young woman began to feel a slight change, but she was not drunk. They always did this, but she would never let herself caught off guard. Never again. Definitely not after all that she had been through. She still had a decent amount of credits left over from her last job, but she always like to save in case of a rainy day. After all, she recently had to buy new crystals for her twin lightsabers that were now securely fastened to her hips, and safely hidden under her gray and black cloak. Long gone were the day that she called herself a Jedi, but she and her lightsabers had been through so much together. Beyond that, she still felt a deep connection to the Force. The Force had proven to be a tremendous ally to her, and this had been especially true since she found herself in a strange time. Of course, no longer being a Jedi meant that she did not care to investigate the strange occurrence. Instead, she found herself trying to numb whatever she felt through good drink, and good music. Most people knew not to mess with her. The last person that did got a hole blown through their hand with a blaster for touching her. Around the lower levels of Coruscant the local scum had come to call her the Grey Queen. She had free reign in these parts. As she put down her drink, she received a notification on a device she kept with her. Taking it out, she found that it was the latest set of bounties and missions. She quietly scrolled through them, and found one to be particularly intriguing. She clicked on the mission for further details before closing the device and finishing her drink. First thing was first, the job required a team. She wasn't much of a team player, but she knew that going in alone could spell trouble. She needed to find someone capable. The former Padawan already had someone in mind. He was a well renowned investigator, and his reconnaissance skills could prove to be valuable to her. She already had the means to contact him, so she took out her comlink and did just that. At first all she heard was static. It could have very well been where she was. Comlinks had a nasty habit of being on the fritz in the lower levels. Still, she had faith that her message would pass through. Finally, a clear signal emerged and she began to talk. "Hello, is this Aldric Cibre? I have a job for you. I can pay you a fair wage for your skills." Aldric Cibre |

Aldric Cibre on the other hand had been quite the opposite, ever since his being plucked from his timeline and into this past one. It had taken him all of a few hours to discover what had happened to him, and a little longer then that to pinpoint all of the precise details connected to the timeline he was in... dates, names, places, events. Some of his technology was quite over-dated by this time as well... his communications pad being practically useless as it was unable to pair with anything from this age. This had lead him now to resort on his less favored of communications method, Holo-comms or Comlinks. His Data pad however would prove invaluable with the information from the future he had gathered. For the first twenty four hours after he had arrived in this time he had been without a home, his apartment from his timeline currently being possessed by a Twi'Lek Female with a mean left hook, and a habit of throwing vases at men who wake up in her beds.
He had spent that first night in the lower city and back alleys, being a quick study it didn't take him more then a few hours to catch up on the timeline he was now in, and then he took his time to begin tracking down a known undercity criminal. It wasn't enough to gain heavy popularity over night, but it did get him some credits to start over the night with. From there he had started working to find himself a small apartment, a few necessities hard copy books, and minor bits of lab equipment. Just like that his money was gone again... and without his name being well known among the police as it was back when he had come from it wasn't likely a job would just come through his door. He had no connections, no foundation, and no where to really begin setting himself up in the world. Not this time. It was a bit exhilarating to be honest... the prospect of being able to start completely over without anyone knowing who he was. There was no chance at all that anyone would recognize him on a case... no way for his cover to be blown...
At the same time of course, he was intrigued with the reasoning for him even being thrown back into the past in the first place. To his knowledge it had never happened in history before, and not knowing the answer to something; even so menial nagged at his brain to no end. At the moment though he had no group to experiment on, know data that he could collect in any measure besides his own, and no means to go about searching for answers. Which brought him back to the need to find another job in order to get some kind of funding to pay the bills.
He shuttered at the idea of finding something normal to do for a living, but then the problem of not being so well known returned, leaving him to work from the bottom up in order to rebuild his reputation and get him some kind. Preferably just big enough to keep the income up. The time he came from he had relied on his mother and in some degree his older brother to be able to get him started when he had first been getting into the crime fighting business... now he was on his own in a new world he was only just understanding. Definitely something that would slow anyone down.
That's around the time the impossible happened. Aldric was sitting on the couch.. it being quite very cheap and not in very good condition with the current lack of budget he had. His legs were curled up in front of him, brought up as he rested his chin on them with his eyes closed, almost sagely. He was doing his best to keep his mind busy as he was going over information he had just read from his book, working on an experiment and waiting for the results. It was almost agonizing for him, until he could hear the buzzing from his comm link... He was definitely upgrading that...
He looked to it, ruffling his eyebrows a little as he wondered who could be trying to contact him. The opening questions surprised Aldric, causing him to narrow his eyes a little. "You're from the future... like me... Interesting..." He whispered, low enough not to be heard in the comm. It was the only way someone could know of him and his particular skill set. He sighted a bit and sat up now, speaking back to the communications device. "Consider me interested... where do i meet you?" He asked, already standing from his couch.

She had heard that he was peculiar, but she had not been sure. Still, from what she had heard she would trust no others. They just would not understand as she was sure that he did. Ahsoka was glad to know that he was interested. The bounty hunter told him the name of a diner near the Senate. She felt it would be safer for him if they met there instead of the lower levels. After all the details were set she ended the transmission, and headed for the meeting place. She had told him that she was Togruta, and hoped that would be enough for him to spot her at the diner.
She got aboard a small transport, and made her way up. Her thoughts were on her own timeline and the ways she since had to make a living for herself since leaving the Jedi Order. The only real reminders of that time in her life were the lightsabers she kept with her, and her connection to the Force. She shook her head, and exhaled. She could hear the credits she would be giving the detective jingle in one of her pouches. The speed of the bounty hunter's transport picked up and she zoomed away to the diner that she had specified.
It did not take long for her to arrive at the diner. She set her personal vehicle against the wall outside, and made sure that the security was paid to watch over it. Afterwards, she walked inside, and took a booth near one of the windows. She preferred window seats. Not long later a human waitress came over and asked if she was ready to order. She wouldn't do so, at least not yet. Instead, she order something warm to drink. The night air outside had been a bit chilling. Besides, she wasn't entirely sure if she wanted the detective to question her about what she was eating or to see her eat in general. The waitress soon returned with the drink, and Ahsoka nodded her thanks. the waitress went away, and the woman took a sip of her drink.
"This is just what I needed."

Luke couldn't believe that he was sent back 4000 years into the past and from what he learned from the Jedi, he wasn't the only time displaced person which concerned him. After all, there was always the possibility of him running into someone important that could alter his timeline for better or worse. Still there was one good thing about this and that was the fact that Luke had the opportunity to learn more about the Force and Jedi teaching which he intended to use for when he went back to his time and start the Jedi Order. Because of this, Luke decided to help the Jedi and he was given a mission to investigate something strange happening on Yavin IV which Luke volunteered for right away since he had knowledge of the location. This was because of the fact that the Rebel's hidden base was on Yavin IV which they were forced to evacuate from after the Empire discovered it's location. The Jedi Knight was told to head to a dinner on Coruscant to meet a togruta named Ahsoka Tano and a man named Aldric Cibre.
Luke would then leave Dantooine on his X-Wing and landed at a spaceport on Coruscant and took a taxi to the dinner. When the taxi landed near the dinner, Luke sensed that someone strong in the Force was near by and oddly enough, he couldn't tell if the being practiced the light or darkside of the Force. He would then spot the togruta sitting by the window and knew right away that the being he sensed was her. He would then walk into the dinner wearing his black Jedi robes and his lightsaber strapped to his belt and sat across from Ahsoka and while he was a Jedi, he was still a male and couldn't help but notice how physically attractive she was. "My name is Luke Skywalker and I was sent by the Jedi to aid you on this mission. I understand that you've invited someone by the name of Aldric Cibre?" asked Luke not knowing much about the man aside from the fact that he was human and someone Ahsoka invited. And little did Luke know, the woman sitting in front of him was in fact the former apprentice of his father before he turned to the darkside.

Her eyes narrowed. Had they been listening in? The Jedi of this era were not much different than the ones she remembered. She had sensed him before he had even come in, and his presence was a bit offsetting. Still, she was reminded heavily of him by just the presence alone. When she heard his name she was even more surprised. Skywalker...She could open up with something that surprised him. After all, she was rarely caught off guard and he did just that. While the man was not as handsome as her former master, he did look somewhat like him. She wouldn't question him about it though. She promised herself to never look into anything concerning him. It caused her way too much heartache, and to go down that road again would surely be disastrous. " I could ask you how you came across all of this information, but I suppose I will have to trust you. The Force appears to be strong with you, Master Jedi." She was not ready to give him her name, but she did not sense anything malicious about him. Still, if need be, she would not hesitate to strike him down in the diner where they now both sat. Her fingers inched closer to her lightsabers as she gauged his resolve. Her time as a bounty hunter had hardened her. She would back down from nothing. The tension grew before she moved her hands away from her hips. She returned both hands to her cup, lifted it up and again drank of its contents. When she finally put the cup down and stopped musing, she decided to ask him a question. " You look a bit green around the gills. My crew should be able to fend for themselves. How are you with your training? You wear the robes of a Jedi, but that tells me nothing. Are you a Padawan that they sent because they feel that was all this mission warranted? I am no fan of the Jedi Order. They think that what they do is so righteous, but they so often get things wrong. They claim to be peacekeepers, but do so little when a galaxy so obviously cries out for their help and guidance. No, Jedi, I will not ask. You will show me what you are capable of on this mission. You will follow what I say, and perhaps then you will earn my respect. Skywalker, was it?"

Once the conversation between himself and the woman on the other side of the comlink was finishing, Aldric was turning it back off, biting his lip a little as he let his eyes wander in thought for a moment. If there was someone else from the future who was running around in the past like him, then that meant it wasn't a localized event... and besides that it would give him a chance to collect more data on the events that seemed to spread across the galaxy at the time. Besides that it was just the chance he was looking for in order to get him a few credits to help him grow roots in the world he found himself in. Finally; it never hurt to get him a few favors in now and then.
Without any delay then he shot up from the couch and crossed the room, pulling his long coat from the wall and double checking all the items he needed on her person, insuring that he had everything he needed before he was checking to make sure he had the location of where his current employer wanted to meet with him. Of course there would be a few things he needed to get out of the way before he fully accepted the job... but everything he needed to make sure of required him to actually step out of the apartment for. He headed down to the lobby floor of the apartment, running out of the building before he was stopping on the sidewalk, looking around in order to gather bearings related to where he needed to go.
Knowing it was too far for him to get to on foot, at least easily, he would hail an air taxi speeder and pay for the trip with what few credits he could muster at the moment. He gave the driver the location of the diner he was supposed to meet his mystery employer at, his eyes being fixed out the back window for the trip as he watched the other speeders being passed and the buildings buzzing by in a blur. Coruscant; or at least the under city hadn't seemed to change very much between now and the clone wars it seemed. Aldric would know more about the upper city later, as he had yet to venture that high since his arrival in the past, but as it was he was able to overlook most of the changes.
Once the trip had finished he was stepping out of the taxi, paying for the trip before it sped away from him and back into the sky, moving slower as to find a new passenger. Aldric glanced around, looking to the diner that matched the name of the one the woman on the commlink had directed him to, glancing around as he got his bearings in order to make sure he knew what he was getting himself into. After a moment he was walking towards the diner, holding his coat close to himself as he passed by a few people coming out of it together. He stepped through, arching his brow a bit as he got a quick look around the room, not stopping at the door in hopes that he didn't draw attention to himself.
He removed his scarf and gloves, placing them into their respective pockets in his coat before he lowered his collar, no longer needing it against the cold of Coruscant's night air. He knew only a few things about his mysterious employer, she was a Togruta female, from a time very close to his own. Otherwise he knew nothing about her at the moment. Fortunately for him there was only one Togruta in the room at the moment, and she was sitting with another male, human near a window. He began walking, taking only a moment to recognize the man as a Jedi at seeing the lightsaber on his belt. He certainly wasn't aiming to be inconspicuous it would seem. It didn't deter him though from moving up to the table, seeing the Togruta's lightsabers under the table in passing at a glance as well. Her garb though wasn't congruent with a Jedi, which struck him as odd.
Either way he could tell one thing, and that was that she seemed to have been able to use her skills far more freely to her advantage if she had money to spare for the job they were on and for hiring him. Certainly not something that would have been as easy if she was from the future... perhaps she had some means of income on the side then? Aldric was sure to count that among the facts before he sat down, having taken only a few seconds since his entering the Diner to come to all of this in conclusion.
He stopped at the table just before the two of them, sliding into the booth with his back to them, partially hoping not to interrupt the conversation that was taking place, hoping he would be able to come away with something extra from it... and if not then so be it... either way the seats at the booth they were sitting in were both taken, giving Aldric a moment to wait in listen.

"The Force is very strong in my family and it seems to me that the Force is strong with you too. Did you receive Jedi training at some point in your life?" asked Luke before he noticed tension coming from her as if she waiting for him to do something bad. The young Jedi really wasn't too suprised by this since the Jedi were peace keepers in this era and those who are criminals or skirted the line had every reason to be wary of them. For a moment, everything was silent as the young Skywalker sensed her resolve and when she drank from her cup, the tension appeared to alleviate some what. The female togruta would then ask him about his training before commenting on how the Jedi were supposedly peace keepers even though they do so little to answer the cries for help through out the galaxy. Luke of course couldn't help but get shake the feeling that the bounty hunter he was going to work with had some bad history with the Jedi Order.
"Skywalker is my name and I understand, I am the unknown in this group of your but I will say this, I had only recently became a Jedi Knight and that the two people who have trained me were very good Jedi masters. My first teacher died to ensure my friends and I escaped from a very dangerous situation and my second teacher died from old age" explained Luke feeling the need to protect the reputation of the two people who trained him in the ways of the Jedi. After all, he held both Ben and Yoda in very high esteem. As he gave that explanation, a man slid into the booth behind them.
"By the way, feel free to call me Luke, master Jedi seems way too formal. Is there a name you want me to call you by?" asked Luke with a friendly smile on his face.

She thought it over. No one here knew of her real name. He was a Skywalker, and that brought her guard down a bit. She had known of some great Jedi in her time, but she was still disgusted with the Order. She buried her hands in her face as she grew a bit anxious. She let out an ugh. The way he talked reminded her so much of him...why had it come to this? She was so sure that she had severed her ties, but as soon s she was reminded of Anakin Skywalker she instantaneously felt things she wanted to kill off. Ahsoka eventually regained her composure, and drunk from her cup again. If she could trust anyone again it would likely be him. Still, there were no guarantees, and he could be lying about who he said he was. However, it was the first time she had heard the name Skywalker since she slipped through time. After a few more thoughts she finally spoke.
"Luke, huh? Well, I wasn't going to keep calling you Master Jedi anyway. Very well, my name is Ahsoka. Do not call me by that name out in the open though. I do have a reputation to uphold. I am also known as the Grey Queen. I should let you know that I am a bounty hunter. So, do you have any issues about working with a bounty hunter?"

The man in the long coat had continued to sit with his back turned to the two at the table behind him, not at all turning his head in any way that would indicate he was listening into their conversation. If they were using the force, he would appear just as if he was any other man coming into the Cafe. He was almost positive that neither of them had ever met him, and so recognizing his signature with the force was also out of the question. As long as neither of them had met him in one of their alternate futures. Still eh sighed lightly, shaking that thought from his mind. He had also spent a good deal of time teaching himself to withstand force tricks of that kind anyway, a skill that had come in handy one or two times in his past; which only added to his confidence that he hadn't been detected by either of them.
By this time Aldric had shed his long coat and laid it out in the seat with him, leaving him in just his jacket as he looked around the room a moment casually, taking notes of everything, everyone in the room and where everything was in order to make sure he knew the situation at hand. While he was in the middle of glancing around one of the waitresses came up to his table, and in order to act casual he ordered himself a coffee, nodding a bit up at her as she took his order and then headed away from him to get him the cup. It wasn't long before she had returned, placing his coffee down on the table for him before he took a sip from it after adding a couple of packs of sugar to it. By this time he had gathered a few more pieces of information about the two behind him, their names being Luke... Skywalker and Ahsoka... though she seemed to be less welcome to using that name herself and instead preferred the Grey Queen. He reached into his long coat, pulling out his data pad and beginning a search for that name, not coming up with very much though as she wasn't here for that long either. He grinned a little bit, nodding a bit as it was effective proof that she too was a result of the time slip. He loved being right...
He looked around a moment longer, stopping as he noticed one man in a corner seat, his eyes still on Ahsoka at this moment. It seemed that the man in the seat believed that Luke was actually Aldric as he had been the one who ended up meeting with her in Aldric's place. This man was definitely armed, Aldric seeing the sharp protrusion inside the man's vest. Besides that it was clear that the man wasn't actually reading what it appeared he was, not having changed pages since Aldric had last checked several moments before then. He narrowed his eyes at the man for a moment before he continued on with his drink. Fortunately the man hadn't seen Aldric's stare-down, being too busy paying attention to Grey Queen and Luke; mistaken for Aldric.
Aldric sighed lightly, taking another sip of his coffee before he was turning back a little, moving to stand up and pull a chair over from one of the tables at the side, glancing between the both of them. "Skywalker, on my right there is a man, armed in a black vest... do you see him? Don't stare." He warned before looking back to Ahsoka. "Also, Grey Queen? Alias' are pointless as long as no one even knows who we are." Aldric commented flatly with a roll of his eyes. By this time he had effectively shown, at least he hoped so, that he was both on their side and exactly who they thought he was.

"I have no issues, hell I'm close friends with a smuggler who has managed to save my life more than once" said Luke with a fond smile as he remembered his good friend Han and his inseparable partner, Chewie. The young Jedi knight couldn't help but wonder if his friends back in his time were looking for him, especially now that they were going to live in an era of peace now that the Emperor and his enforcer were dead. "Grey Qreen huh?, Does that have anything to do with the way you use the Force, because I have to say that you have the most unusual presence in the Force since I can't tell if you use the light or darkside of the Force" said Luke before he suddenly got a bad feeling which usually meant that trouble was near by. A tall man would then suddenly pull into their table and told Luke that there was an armed man in a black vest and asked if he saw him. Luke looked over at the man Aldric mentioned and used Force speed to slow down his perception of time in order to get a good look at the guy while not appearing to stare. The man with the black vest appeared to be reading a book and he saw the sharp protrusion inside the vest and after Luke saw the protrusion, he focused his attention back to Aldric.
"I see him" said Luke before Aldric told Asohka that aliases were useless when nobody knew who she was which was when Luke realized that the togruta was most likely displaced in time like him. "Wait, are you time displaced like me?" asked Luke with a curious expression on his face after he looked over to Ahsoka.

She smiled. So, he had been here with them for some time. Not wanting to draw attention to herself, she mad motion that told Luke to keep it down. The realization that the three of them were displaced had to be more than a sheer coincidence. Ahsoka had never seen the man that was so obviously tracking them before. It was also likely because she didn't since any sort of connection to the Force form the man. She then shook her head at Luke to deny that was the reason why she was called the Grey Queen. " Some things simply aren't that elaborate handsome." She leaned in and kissed him. She lingered a bit before returning properly to her seat. Sure, she did it to get a reaction from the Jedi, but he was also trying to gauge what their pursuer would do. If only she had a blaster on her. She would have shot the man in his seat, and been off running before people could have really determined what was going on. So, instead she waved to the waitress to take her cup away. She also paid her bill on the spot. " They call me the Grey Queen simply because of the robes I wear. Though, my marks have also never actually seen my face. I don't think anyone even knows that I am a Togruta. By the way, Luke, you look as if though you've never kissed a girl before. I don't know whether to be disgusted or flattered. Focus! Jedi are supposed to be all about focus." She then leaned back to the new arrival. She still didn't know what to make of him. He was a bigger enigma than she. Though peculiar, she got the sense that she would actually come to like Aldric. She scratched her nose, and looked up at the ceiling to keep the attention of of him. " So, what do you suppose that we do? You obviously don't want to cause a scene. I have no idea how many people are actually on us. Luke clearly looks lost.

The man in Black garb glanced over to the armed man sitting across the room, expressing his agreement after a moment that he saw the man, Aldric giving a nod as he kept his eyes fixed on Ahsoka, trying to make sure that not everyone looked at the same time. That certainly would be a dead give away. He nodded a bit, looking back to Luke then before he sighed, hearing the next comment as the man came to his next realization. Aldric had to admit the man was quick to come to that realization, but really? Now wasn't the best time. He sighed lightly, almost glaring the man down for a moment. "Yes, and so am i. Mind saying it a little bit louder though? I don't think everyone in the Dinner heard you." Aldric said sarcastically as he looked to the window where he had enough of a reflection of the man to keep his eye on him without actually appearing conspicuous.
There was a few more seconds between Luke and Ahsoka where they continued to converse, Aldric only rolling his eyes lightly as he glanced up to the ceiling. "Oh good lord..." He muttered as Ahsoka leaned forward to kiss Luke, giving a sigh, doing his best to appear awkward in the situation so as to help make this whole situation a lot more believable for the specific onlookers. Still when he thought about it more then a second it seemed to be buying them a moment of time. He ruffled his eyebrows a bit, still looking in the reflection before he was taking a breath.
At Ahsoka's question as to what to do, Aldric smirked lightly at the comment regarding how lost Luke was in the situation, but said nothing in regards to it himself before he clapped his hands together lightly, rubbing them. He then began speaking as if he was going in over drive, his words leaving his lips at the speed of thought as he leaned forward between the two love birds for a moment. "Between a third person sitting down at the table and your little display of affection we've managed to buy ourselves a few seconds. He's clearly confused and doesn't know what to do, but i estimate no more then fifteen seconds from now will he begin to expect something has gone wrong with his plan. It's likely then that he will spring into action, and move in to counter us. If he get's that chance it doesn't matter what you do to him, he will be able to alert his friends... as you mentioned we don't know how many others there are. SO that's a bad idea. Don't let that happen. I suggest then that you two both make for the back door, being ready for some of his kind to be back there. I'll disable his communication so you will have the element of surprise and then we meet on the roof." Aldric explained his plan that he had quite literally formulated on the spot, taking a sharp breath after the long bout of speaking quickly.
He then looked to his chrono on his wrist, seeing that fifteen seconds was up... then counted additionally a few more seconds before the man shut his book now, trying to casually glance at the three of them. "Sithspit... 22 seconds not fifteen." Aldric commented as he looked to the watch.

"Sorry" said Luke feeling a bit embarrassed after Alderic sarcastically asked him if he could be any louder. Still, what Luke found odd was the fact that the three of them were all displaced in time and like luck, there was no such thing as coincidences. Being a Jedi, Luke assumed that the Force must have brought the three together and for what he didn't know. But if he had to guess, it had something to do with this mission and what they might find on Yavin IV. Replying to his question about why she was called the Grey Queen, Ahsoka told him that things weren't that elaborate beforing calling him handsome which made Luke raise an eye brow in confusion since she didn't show any signs of being attracted to him before now. The next thing the young Jedi knew, Ahsoka leaned in and gave him a kiss that lingered for a bit which caught Luke off guard and made him freeze up. As this was happening, Aldric appeared to be feeling awkward as the two kissed like any other person who was seeing public displays of affection.
Ahsoka returned to her seat and waved to the waitress to take her cup of tea and paid her bill before explaining to him that she got the name because of the the robes she wore and that as a bounty hunter, none of her marks have seen her face. She would then comment on how Luke appeared as if he had never kissed a girl before and that he should be focusing since Jedi were all about that. This of course made Luke rather annoyed, so he took a deep breath and centered himself in order to regain the calm composure he usually put up. "Kind of hard to focus when a beautiful woman suddenly kisses you" said Luke before Ahsoka asked Aldric what they should do since she claimed that Luke was clearly lost. Luke let that comment slide as well as Aldric's smile at the comment. Aldric would then explain a plan that was really well thought out that involved attacking the man's back up. "Impressive..., I can see why Ahsoka invited you" said Luke appearing to be rather impressed with the fact that Aldric came up with a plan on the spot. The tall man would then look the chrono on his wrist and began to count down the seconds which Luke figured was their cue to go out the back door to complete the said plan.
"Follow me Ahsoka" said Luke as he sat up from his seat and headed towards the back door of the establishment expecting Ahsoka to follow. When he was about to go through the back door, Luke unclipped his lightsaber from his belt and went through the door ready to face whatever threat awaited him.

" Oh wow, you think I'm beautiful?!" Ahsoka feigned bliss as she placed a hand on her chest and batted her eyes at Luke. She was having to much fun teasing the Jedi. She listened carefully to both Aldric, and Luke. The man had already begun to make a move, and they were down to twenty-two seconds to make an escape. She got up and followed Luke. However, she was not one to stay following, so she eventually caught up and took the lead. Not yet Skywalker...you are not Anakin. You haven't earned that privilege. She pushed open the door, and she picked up her pace. What was once a stroll turned into a brisk walk. She hoped that Luke and Aldric were both ready. She must have walked outside for a length of less than fifty paces when she met two men with guns. With no hesitation, she with arms outstretched gripped the both men with the Force and did a closing motion with her arms. The two men followed suit, crashed into each other, and their bodies slumped which was indicative of a knockout blow. Ahsoka then brushed her hands as if to clean up, and turned back towards her momentary allies. Hopefully the two of them had caught up by now. Aldric Cibre Luke Skywalker |

No sooner then he had turned away from them and back to his Chrono the both of them began moving, though there was a moment of banter from Ahsoka and Complement form Luke. Aldric smirked lightly and arched his brow towards the man with a nod. "Thank you." He commented, though he was already moving to put the chair back, faking a wave at the two of them so as to make it seem like he was just an old friend who was passing by after seeing the two of them after a while.
By this time the man who was pretending to read the book was looking over them, though still trying to remain casual as it was dawning on him that something was wrong and the two Jedi were about to make an escape. As Luke and Ahsoka stood up to start making their way out of the Cafe, the man too was standing up, getting ready to chase after them before they could escape. Aldric in the meantime was moving back to the table he had started in, making it look like he was just leaning down to sit back at his seat. Instead though he stuck his leg out as far as he could reach, leaning down to pick up his coat and in the process tripped the man seeing him fall to the ground before he could make it behind the two fleeing Jedi.
Aldric looked surprised as he pulled his coat back on, and then leaned down to help the man up, in the confusion and while he was still being cursed at in several different languages, Aldric managed to pick pocket the radio and blaster from the man's coat before he was turning and making his escape as well. The man who had been spying on them stood there for a moment, hissing and cursing for a few seconds before he reached for where his holo pad had been sitting on his belt in order to warn the men waiting outside, but found it and his blaster missing.
By this time Aldric was out the back door and looking up and down the alley way. He turned with the blaster in hand and shot the lock before he found the fire escape and began climbing it to the roof as was the plan for meeting with the two Jedi, hoping he would be able to find the both of them up there.
