"And today another Jedi was found brutally murdered. This is the third murder of this likeness in the last five days. The killer has yet to be indentified. All sentients are warned to stay indoors till this murder is caught. If travel is required it is warned that you leave heavily armed. This killer is extremely dangerous and I repeat this killer is EXTREMELY dangerous." With that the Mirelan anchor woman signed off. Yoda turned off the recorded holofilm and began to address the Oder which had gathered in the center of Temple.

"Dangerous time this is, murdered, fellow Jedi have been. But not by ordinary means are they dead. Killed not by blaster or viroblade, but burns of lightsaber been their fate it has." Anakin turned to his Master, thinking, could it be a Sith? Master Obi-Wan said that there was another one out there, is that the one? He didn't have time to continue his train of thought before the venerable Master Windu finished Yoda's speech.

"So far we have been unable to find a single trace of the killer. If this was not such a dangerous mission we would have several Jedi Knights on the case. Because of this we ask that no one walks these Halls alone. As you know all the Jedi were abducted from within these walls. Also because of this all Knights and Masters shall come and have theirs and their Padawan's entrance codes changed. We ask that you all stand by each other, otherwise we are shall fall. I would like to ask that all Padawans are escorted back to their rooms and everyone else would adjourn to the Archives." Bant and Obi-Wan dropped Anakin off at Obi-Wan's apartment and were heading towards the Archives when they were stopped by Yoda who mtioned for them to follow him to his private quarters. Sitting on several overly stuffed cusions Yoda seemed older then than he'd ever seemd before.

"Master why..." Yoda put up a single three fingered claw. His large green orbs closed in deep thought.

"Feel the dark-side strongly in this case I do. Something amiss, hiding in the shadows it is. Investigate his Obi-Wan, you will. Have the taint of Sith it does." Bant looked at Obi-Wan his face like stone.

"I accept this Master"

Far from the premises of the temple a shadowy figure stared into the distance, his yellowing blue eyes gazing hard into the Templ's direction.
