"Are we all here? Good, lets get going, i'd like to find T3 and the Ebon Hawk as soon as possible."

"Yeah, I have a few things to say to that bucket of bolts myself," muttered Atton as they launched and headed towards the polar region of the planet. Everyone headed their separate ways, there was alot of tension between the young jedi and the iridonian but it seemed neither of them wanted to be the first to talk. Caitlyn noticed this and approached Ellsia as she regarded the star map.

"Is there-" she hestiated, "Is there anything you need to talk about?"

Ellsia continued to look at the star map Caitlyn nodded and turned to leave.

"Did you ever meet Revan?"

Caitlyn wondered at this question, it was not what she had been expecting.

"Not personally, I corresponded with her once or twice but I never actually met her."

Ellsia smiled and lowered her eyes,

"She was the reason I joined the war you know," her voice was barely a whisper and there was something in her eyes that the exile couldn't read, "She told me I was needed and so I went, I would have done anything for her."

Her smile disappeared, "She was the reason I did alot of things..."

There was something behind those words but Caitlyn wisely left it alone.

"You were close?"

"Like sisters..."

Ellsia turned to the exile, her voice seemed calm but Caitlyn could see the inner struggle and turmoil behind those eyes, those very expressive eyes.

"I guess what i'm trying to say is that you're alot like Revan, she was a leader and so are you, she inspired loyalty in her followers and so do you. You remind me of her alot..."

She sighed and rubbed her eyes,

"I didn't come to Telos in hopes of adventure, I just wanted peace, but I see now that i'm supposed to follow you, to help you in whatever way I can and if Telos is saved in the meantime so be it."

Caitlyn was puzzled, "I don't understand what you mean."

Ellsia smied wryly, "Don't you think it's strange that two people you served with in the war just happen to be on the planet you just happen to be forced to land on? And now you need our help and we just happen to be able to give it?"

"The force works in mysterious ways," Caitlyn said promptly and Ellsia smiled secretly.

The shuttle rocked, and the two ran into the cockpit,

"Are we being shot at, again!" cried Ellsia as they headed at breakneck speed towards the ground,

"Can't we go anywhere without someone trying to kill us?" Caitlyn muttered.

"Ok guys we're in for another rough landing, i've managed to steer us towards that small outcrop so we don't end up in an acid sea or something."

Ellsia was going to be ready this time and strapped herself into the seat next to Atton grimly holding on. It only took two minutes for them to crash land this time the shuttle skidding to a halt a few meters from the edge, everyone had been thrown from the ship.

"Is everyone ok?" asked Caitlyn as she stood,

"I can't feel my- oh wait there it goes.." groaned Atton.

Ellsia stood and noticed everyone was ok... except Bao-Dur. Her heart leapt to her mouth and she ran towards his still figure, memories flashed into her mind. The bionic arm that had replaced the one he lost flashed and fizzled.

"No not again!" she whispered as she kneeled over his unconscious body.

"Annoyed Statement: Finally we have found you, you have lead us on a merry chase jedi."

Ellsia looked up to see three droids holding blasters towards them.

"Didn't we already kill you scraps of slag?"

Asked Atton his own blaster levelled, Ellsia stood and approached them.

"You did this?" she asked pointing towards the shuttle.

"Amused Statement: Why the organic has a bit of fire in her, yes it was us. Query: what are you going to do about it?"

The young woman scowled and grabbed the vibroblade she had collected earlier, "Then prepare to become slag!"

"Weary Resignation: Very well, we were told to bring back the jedi alive, Excited Statement: But as our primary objective is assasination we are somewhat delighted."

The battle did not last long, four against three was somewhat of an advantage and Ellsia preferred to fight close up rather then with a blaster. She threw down the vibroblade and was about to approach Bao-Dur when three young women emerged from nowhere.

"Release your weapons and you will not be harmed."

Cailtyn raised her arms and dropped her blaster indicating that she meant no harm.

"Tell me i'm not going to jail again..." muttered Atton. Ellsia looked at them defiantly then turned and went to Bao-Dur, she knelt and lifted his head into her lap, memories engulfed her and she had to shake her head. He was out cold.

"Come with us," one of the women grabbed her by the arm but the girl shook her off, she frowned and looked at Ellsia.

"He will be attended to," she added, kinder this time. Ellsia looked up and saw that the woman was being genuine, she nodded and stood as two more women appeared and with surprising strength lifted Bao-Dur and carried him away.

Ellsia could not speak, her throat was burning and if she opened her mouth she knew she would break down.

"I won't let this happen again!" she promised herself, "Whatever happens I will speak to him, it must be now."

She could not bear the thought of losing him again, especially to death. Whatever happened now, the truth would come out.
