sorry this is so late

Chapter 6: Arriving on Voss

Kifanue was sound asleep in her bunk when Cody came in to get her. He looked at her and chuckled. The Mirialan padawan was sprawled out on her bunk, her leg hanging off the side, and her mumbles of sweets escaping her lips every now and then. Cody placed a hand on her and shook her softly.

"Commander, the general wants you up," he said but the girl wouldn't budge.

"Come on now Kifanue, you don't want to be late for this," he tried again but again there was no response from her.

The Clone commander sighed, scratching his head for a way to wake the girl up without being absolutely mean.

"Kifanue , the general has something important to show you," he tried again.

Kifanue looked up at him with tired eyes, she rolled onto her side then pushed herself up. "eh, where are we?" she wondered.

"we are above the netural planet Voss, sir," Cody replied.

Kifanue nodded her head, she blinked suddenly, did she just hear him correctly? Voss? last she checked Voss wanted nothing to do with the war or anyone, too busy with their own problems.

"Are you sure?" she asked.

"I don't think the general would make that kind of mistake sir," Cody replied.

Kifanue scrathced her head then pulled her hair back and tied it up, "do we...at least get to eat breakfast?" she asked.

"Not sure sir, General Kenobi was insistant that you show up for the debriefing before anything else."

The padawan sighed and slid out of the bunk, she smiled and gave a quick curtsy to the clone commander before she ran off to the debriefing room.

Obi wan was just about to give up on waiting for her as she slid into the room, doing her best to keep on her feet and not hit anyone who was in the room on the way.

"Ah finally decided to show up young one?" he asked teasingly.

"I...well, sorry master I was just...I..." she bowed and kept her head down she was rather embarrassed by her tardiness.

Obi wan went to her side and gently patted her back. "It's fine, Kifa, I was just teasing, you made it right on time."

"O-oh, well, that was mean," she replied as she stood up straight.

Obi wan smiled at her and then went back to the holo(table?) the planet of Voss being shown along with their ship close to the orbit.

"The people of Voss had lived many generations without republic intervention, even in the past they had done their best to keep their neturaltiy, and it's best if we try to keep it that way."

"What is cause us to worry about their neutrality?" Kifanue asked.

"The separatists are trying to obtain their aid, our job is to see what the enemy is trying to do, and stop it, all without alerting the locals of our true purpose."

"So we are lieing?"

"We don't have a choice, if they found out why we are truly here then they would most likely have us banned from returning."

Kifanue rubbed her arm she was not okay with lieing to people, but she knew that Obi wan must know best. "What is our cover story then?" she asked.

"We are here to ask to use their port for trading supplies to surrounding planets," Obi wan replied. "As long as we don't mention the war I'm sure they would not mind..."

"What about their mystics master?"

"We can only hope that they did not foresee our arrival."

"The shuttle has been prepared for you General," Cody announced.

"Thank you, Cody," he looked at his padawan and nodded his head to her. "Lets get going, shall we?"

Kifanue smiled in agreement and started towards the lift, taking it down with herself, Obi wan and Cody. It was a small shuttle, and several other clones were waiting for them within. The mirilian padawan sat down and buckled in, she took a deep breath. Trying to calm her nerves. She had never actually seen a Voss before, but studied them along with the rest of the sapient species in known space.

"Everything will be okay," Cody reassured as the shuttle jumped, getting out of the docking hanger and heading down to the planet below.

"Thanks...I hope so."
