I made my way back to the cockpit.. When I arrived he was sitting with his arms folded, and eyes closed. Rambles and muttering of numbers came from his mouth. I hadn't the slightest clue what it was. Codes? No, it sounded like math.

"Hey Atton." His eyes shot open.

"Yes?" He sounded startled, but looked calm. I couldn't comprehend it.

"What are you counting?"

"I'm not counting anything." He smiled.

"Then what were you rambling about?" He offered me a seat next to him, so I sat.

"I was playing a card game."
"Without cards?"

"Yeah, pazaak. Ever heard of it?" Honestly, I probably had, but couldn't remember it.

"No."
"Well Kimmy, how about a game? I'll teach ya." He smiled brightly. I could tell it was 'his thing'.

"Well sure." I sheepishly managed a smile. I wasn't as excited as him, but whatever floated his boat.

"Basically, you want to get 20, and here, use this side deck. It lets you add and subtract cards as you please so you don't go over 21."

"Well, seems simple." The game, was perfectly fine and simple until Atton used a golden card on me.

"Hey! What is THIS?" I asked with a smirk.

"My 3/6 card. It lets me change all of the signs of the three and six cards I have here. Hah-20!"

He smiled, glowed really. For such a ragged and dirty scoundrel, it was a pleasant sight. I couldn't help but feel a little more comfortable being here, even if I couldn't remember anything prior to that force cage. Kreia stepped in to the cockpit.

"Are you done distracting her you fool? We have plenty of Jedi business to attend to, and you are not helping."

Her tone was rather scornful. For whatever reason, as of now, she wasn't so fond of Atton. I figured she had felt a trouble of some sort within him, but I couldn't feel it. Not with whatever was left of my force abilities.

"I was only showing her a friendly game, she seemed a bit tense. A tad stressed. Don't be so jealous."

"Imbecile. You are not to interfere with this, she is way beyond teachings of a simple card game."

Suddenly the ship shook. We were under attack. Atton turned his chair around to see turrets shooting at us from a multiple of directions. Quickly he turned and navigated the ship to avoid as much as he possibly could.

"I'm recieving a transmission Kimmy, you should surely check it out!" Kreia smiled at the sound of the name Kimmy. Probably was wondering just how gullible Atton could be. I turned to the center of the ship, and headed that way with much hurry. A hologram played.

"I the head General of the TSF. We have must to discuss with you about yourself and a recent Harbinger sighting. If you do not dock peacefully on landing pad 165-B, we will shoot you from the sky. DO you copy? This is urgent."

The hologram disappeared. What a friendly welcome.

"Atton! Land on Telos! Landing pad 165-B!"

Stepping out of our ship, TSF officers were there to 'greet' us.

"Please, hand over your weapons. You will be escorted to a force cage, there, you will wait until the general comes to speak to you." The head TSF officer seemed stern.

"Are you crazy!? You almost shot us out of the sky, and you want us to hand over our weapons. Our equipment!?" Atton was absolutely furious.

"Do not be a fool Atton, they mean us no harm." Kreia was calm, so I remained tranquil.

"Yes, we shall." I handed over my vibroblade and armor, not that I had it very long.

We were put in to separate force cages, and they took my T3 unit with them somewhere. I looked around, there wasn't anything in the small room but the small module for the force cages. This was wonderful.

"How's it feel to be stuck in a cage again?" Atton looked to me.

"Pazaak sounds nice right now doesn't it?"

"She doesn't need the false sympathy and jokes from you." Kreia was agitated, but kept her cool.

"Should have known you'd be trouble, Kim." He winked, and the doors swooshed open.
