:Immediate following In Accordance: The dark Jedi received an alert and leaned in towards Jareth. The cantina was still empty, and the two were going to need to leave soon. It wasn't that the two could not protect themselves against whatever threat was presented, but the alert was something that needed to be addressed immediately. Revan looked over the alert one more time before deciding exactly what needed to be done. The alert was surprising to say the least. It concerned the Hutts and something that they had in their possession. How did they procure this? Knowing the Hutts, they would want an obscene amount of money for this. I know that mind tricks won't work on them. We'll just have to steal it." Jareth, how do you feel about staying on this planet a little while longer. More importantly, how do you feel about stealing a rare holocron from the Hutts?" Revan's expression could not be seen, but he was definitely smiling. The former Jedi knew that the mission was dangerous, but he and Jareth shared a passion for the pursuit of knowledge. No one knew if the Hutts truly had a holocron, but it was worth the risk. He wasn't too keen on crossing the Hutts, but he would do what was needed to gain knowledge in his quest to bring himself closer to understanding balance. Jareth Sharl Anakin Solo @bastila

Anakin could be seen in the cockpit of a light freighter that had a set of laser canons in the front and laster turrets on the bottom and top of the vehicle. The boy was wearing a dark blue jacket that was open revealing a white shirt, dark blue pants and black boots. Around his waist, a utility belt can be seen which contained a baster pistol, but not his lightsaber. That weapon was in a side pocket of his jacket since the mission he was on would require going undercover. The ship was headed to the outer rim world known as Tatooine that Anakin and another Jedi named Bastila Shan were ordered to go to by the Jedi Council. Their mission was to retrieve a holocron that the Hutts had in their possession and after the Jedi tried and failed to make a deal with the Hutts, they figured that they should try a different approach, an approach that involved stealing. Initially, Bastila was the only one who was going to go on this mission, but they decided to send Anakin along with her wanting him to gain more experience as they had high hopes for him.
As for his opinion of Bastila, he really didn't have the chance to form one. So far, all they have done was introduce themselves and had yet to form a plan of action. When Anakin asked what was the plan, the Jedi Knight told him that she needed to meditate on the matter, which troubled the young padawan. While he had yet to form an opinion on his current partner, he did have to admit that Bastila was very easy on the eyes. As the boy continued to fly the ship towards Nal Hutta in hyperspace, a red light began to blink as a beeping sound came from the computer indicating that they were almost there. He would then pull down a lever and the ship existed from hyperspace, the barren desert world known as Tatooine could be seen from the cockpit window. He would then leave his chair after putting the ship on autopilot and headed to the living quarters on the ship where he saw Bastila.
"Bastila, we have just existed hyperspace. Do you want to discuss our plan of action before we land?"

The ship was completely silent, and Bastila sat on the floor, her legs folded and eyes closed. Despite her attempts, finding that peaceful meditative state was proving incredibly difficult today. She'd been sent on a mission for another holocron; they had been scattered throughout the galaxy, and it was a race between Force Users to get them back. This particular one had been tracked to a hutt, and despite several attempts on the Council's part at negotiations to get it back, there had been no success.
Enter Bastila. Despite the obviousness that she was no greater than the average newly-appointed Jedi Knight, the Jedi Council still seemed to have incredibly high expectations of her. Deciding someone was going to have to go to Tattooine and find an alternative way to retrieve the holocron, they had decided to send her for it. She wasn't actually sure why, as diplomacy was not really one of her strong points...
At all.
What could she do? Use battle meditation on them until they gave up the holocron? Sure, that would work just great.
Still, arguing with the Jedi Council was generally useless--and she hadn't tried anyway, as she wouldn't back down from a challenge. Now she was on a ship with a Padawan from the future. He seemed friendly enough. After asking her what their plan was for arriving, she'd muttered an excuse for having to meditate on it. Several hours later and arriving in orbit of the desert world, she didn't have any greater of a plan than before. The only thing she knew was that the people they planned to get the holocron from would not be interested in seeing Jedi.
So... that meant they may need a disguise.
"Bastila, we have just existed hyperspace. Do you want to discuss our plan of action before we land?"
The voice startled her out of her thoughts, and she turned to face the dark haired youth standing in the entrance-way.
"Oh--yes--that would be a good idea--" she said, getting up from her cramped position. She headed down toward the cockpit, glancing over her shoulder once to make sure Anakin was following. She paused by the captain's chair, peering out the window at the bright planet and its twin suns. She glanced at the waiting Padawan. "They're not very welcoming of Jedi here," she said. "So I think it's best if we keep a low profile. We can probably get some cloaks or something." Hopefully it would suffice to hide the unsubtle Jedi robes and lightsabers.
Before much else could be said, the ship comm buzzed with activity and they had to coordinate the landing. The gangplank was dropped, and the two Jedi emerged from the ship out into the bright sunlight. A man approached them quickly, and it didn't take much effort to realize they were going to be charged. Bastila sighed. At least it was a good way to warm up her bartering skills.

Maul had just left, the two Whipids that Jareth had mesmerized with his simple mind powers having followed with him. The Cantina besides Jareth and Revan was still empty, all of the patrons and the staff having fled since before Jareth had even seen the building. It was eerily quiet now, but it didn't really bother the Dark Jedi as he glanced around at the silent room for a few moments, beginning to ready himself to leave as well.
Just before he was to stand though he caught sight of Revan who leaned over to him now, arching his brow a little as he tilted his head and listened to his comment, asking about stealing a Holocron from Hutts. He smirked a bit at the thought itself. Holocrons were always an item of interest for Jareth, and he found it interesting a Hutt in any capacity could have gotten a hold of such an item. Perhaps it would be somewhat simple to barter with them and get it back, or just to steal it themselves... it was bound to be easier then walking into an ancient tomb, navigating any traps and then recovering the fabled data recording devices.
He looked back to Revan, giving a small nod in agreement. "Anything i need to know?" He asked with a tilt of his head. It was clear he was already willing to go on said adventure, even if it meant they had to stay on this sandy world for longer then had originally been planned.... but a Holo cron was definitely well worth the effort.

"Well, I have actually heard news of two different holocrons on this planet. I am glad I have these connects. I'm nt sure I would have found out about either one of these without them. Supposedly, one of the two holocrons tell of the location of something that has an unfathomable power. While I don't usually chase something so far out there, I do believe the Force had brought me to Tatooine for more than just a chat with a Sith Lord."
He had no idea what was in store. However, Revan began to think that virtually anything was possible. After all, he and Jareth were both displace from their timelines. Revan had left before he could truly leave a mark, and the story had likely been the same for Jareth. However, that much wasn't really a thing for Revan. He could care less about his name being one to remember throughout the remainder of history. Instead, he cared more about his journey through the Force.
"I'm actually pretty excited about this. Namely, because I actually haven't had much run-ins with any Hutts. I hope they are every bit as much as the stories I have heard. Basically, I don't want to be disappointed. By the way, I know you're not much for killing, so...I'll dirty my hands if it comes to that. So, are you ready or what?!"

Anakin watched as the newly knighted Jedi stood up and followed her into to the cockpit noticing that she was glancing over to him to make sure that he was following. She would then look out the window which faced the desert planet and it's two suns before telling him that Jedi weren't welcome here and that it would be best to get a cloak or something in order to keep a low profile. Anakin didn't have to worry about getting a disguise since he was already in his civilian clothes, his lightsaber was in a side pocket in his jacket and and he had a blaster to show that he wasn't defenseless. Something that you would want while on a Hutt controlled world like Tatooine, especially when you are a young woman and a boy traveling alone. What Anakin found odd was the fact that it didn't even occur to Bastila that she should have brought a disguise before leaving Dantooine since a lightsaber and Jedi robes were a big red flag on a planet like this. "Well, I came on this mission in my civilian clothes for this reason. Did you bring a cloak with you or do we need to stop in a market place to buy you one?" asked Anakin expecting her to answer yes to bringing a cloak. After all, it was something that Anakin would have done if he was in charge of a mission like this.
The ship would then land and Anakin followed Bastila to the gangplank and when it dropped down Anakin covered hiseyes with his right hand as his eyes adjusted to the bright sunlight. Once his eyes adjusted, he saw a man waiting for them and Anakin assumed that this man was going to ask for a docking fee. Since Bastila was the Jedi in charge of this mission, decided to let her do the talking, though that did not mean that he wasn't going to butt in things weren't going smoothly.
