Asher is now nervous as he sits in his seat. He figures he tripped a security alert in the padd and now people will be looking for him. And needless to say he knows he stands out in a crowd.
" Now the gate has been unlatched headstones pushed aside; corpses shift and offer room ,a fate you must abide."
She pulls out hee phaser setting it to stun and fires hitting him in the back
Osman: beam us to hq
The two are soon transported away.
A short while later Asher wakes up startled
Osman is sitting on the other side of the room
Osman: now then we need to talk. I'm Admiral Osman of republic Intel.
Asher rubs his head
Asher: so I've gathered. What do you want from me
Osman: now that's an interesting question. I've read the file Thorin composed. Your impressive. I've never seen someone of your race before either.
Asher: not suprising most of us don't leave our space.
Osman: your a merc running from job to job. No home no real life.
Asher: your point?
Osman: I could use a man of your skill and abilities. Things are getting tense here in the republic. Thorin trusted you and if he did I think you are good for the job.
Asher: you want me to join your department?
Osman: yes

*After the class finishes, Tara A takes Sara and Zoe into her office.*
Tara A: So, I heard there was a fight last night?
Sara: I punched her first.
Tara A: That's a technicality, but thank you for letting me see exactly what happened.
*Zoe smiles at Sara a little.*
What happened, Zoe?
Zoe: I just... lost my temper.
Tara A: Zoe, you've lost your temper in the past and it didn't result in you trying to beat up your sister.
Zoe: I... I don't know, I guess I just got fed up of not having what it takes...
*Tara A looks at her sadly.*
Tara A: Sara, you can go.
*Sara nods and leaves, putting a hand on Zoe's shoulder as she leaves.*
Zoe, if you think you're being held back because you haven't beaten your sister, you're way off. You have a lot of potential inside you - both of you do. You already outclass Sara in energy projection and a lot of the conventional curriculum before you passed. Just because Sara beats you in physical combat doesn't mean you're behind her.
Why don't you go relax for the rest of the day; think about how much Sara probably wishes she was as good as you?
Zoe: Okay...
Tara A: Good. You know where I am if you need me.
*Meanwhile, Sara is sitting on a bench in the courtyard.*
Osman: if you don't want to I won't force you to. It's your choice. But Thorin thought enough of you to say you should.
Asher sits silently for a moment in thought.
Asher: I don't have anything else what could I lose by this. I'll do it.
Osman: glad to hear it. There will be some steps here we will go through and then I will assign you to agent Burns. He will handle your training and all. Until then let's take you to see the capital once we get you set up.

Tara A: Later. It's morning class only today anyway.

Port
Osman is standing outside where the the people from the transport are entering the city. She is flanked by two officers.
Osman: remember we want him to come with us and we want to handle this quitly and quickly
Agent: yes ma'am.
Osman: there he is on second thought let me handle this.
Osman: Asher I need you to come with me please.
Asher: who are you?
Osman: that's not important at the moment. What is is that you could still be in danger with that padd.
Asher: then take it I don't want trouble.
Osman: I'm sorry but it's not that simple any more...
Asher: just leave me alone!
He throws his bag at her as she dodges he takes off running.
Osman: cut him off up ahead. I'll get him.
She takes off running after him
Osman: Stop!
He takes off down a long corridor
Osman: TRIBBLE it
She pulls out hee phaser setting it to stun and fires hitting him in the back

*The trinket calls to her again.. as if it was a drug she can feel herself going back to it..She soon feels the urge to leave.*
Tara B: I wanted to apologize for being so determined to figure out what was wrong. I'm just worried that one of you might turn out like me.
Osman: looks good.
Asher: thanks but it feels weird.
Osman: come on now that we have paper work and uniform out of the way let's take you through the capital and some of the main buildings.
They soon head outside as the first place they stop is the capital building
*Zoe walks over and picks the artefact off her table, as it begins glowing red again.*
