Part 3

Arrival

The door chime sounded and Teevea went to answer it. The door slid open to reveal two humanoids both covered by brown cloaks. Simultaneously they drew back the hoods of their cloaks. In doing this they revealed an older man with long hair and a beard and a younger man with a long braid down his back, an apprentices braid. They must be the Jedi.

She opened her mouth to greet them, but stopped as a blaster bolt whizzed through the door past her head.

"Hurry get in here." Teevea said loudly.

The two Jedi hurried into the room. After they got through the door she sealed it tightly.

"I'm very glad to see you. They've been out there for the past two days. All of them are trying to get a shot off in my direction." she said to explain the scene in the hall.

"Why isn't the owner doing anything about it?" Obi-Wan asked.

Before Qui-Gon could answer Teevea did, "This place is seething with villains scum. Some one has paid the owner enough to let them sit out there but not enough to let them in the door."

Qui-Gon looked at her urging her to continue her explanation. Taking the hint she said, "Anyway if he let them in the local authorities would be on him. In the end he would loose more that he could gain."

"Yes, quite true." Qui-Gon said. It seemed odd that he wasn't explaining the circumstances to the two youth.

"If you leave your cloaks undrawn you should be able to leave trough the door safely. Here are some credits to cover the bill, please pay it on the way out if you don't mind. I'll meet you at a place called The Rain Star is a café not far from here."

"How will you be leaving?" asked Qui-Gon.

"Don't ask, just go." she said.
