He sits there and listens to Zairon and is shocked at the accusations....but he reads the real meaning to all this. Starkiller....the Empire wants him as bad as everyone else and unfortunately they have as much clue as to his whereabouts as they do....He studies him though the force and senses no deception. Merely a man following orders. He takes a napkin to his mouth and cleans it and sits back in his chair. "Is that all? I figured you were asking us to come to empire side because you had cookies" and smiles. "relax Lord Zairon I understand your mission and you fears of it failing are unfounded. Let's take this a step at a time shall we? "First the counts of First degree murder demands pre meditation. What I mean is you have evidence that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Nic and John plotted, gathered intelligence, and set out to end another individuals life." Raising his hand to for stall any argument he continues. "Or is you evidence more along the lines of second degree murder in which there was an argument and action was taken resulting in the death of another?" He takes a sip of water and continues. I also feel you accusation of our knowing the whereabouts of StarKiller and the belief we are harboring him come from our mission on Mustafar.....I can assure you this as a personal note from me. If StarKiller was anywheres around here or I had access to him he would be a corpse." His eyes growing dark and his face steely. "We are just as much in the dark about his location as everyone else is."
He stands and begins pacing. "I feel the real reason behind your visit is Ire as usual feels he must exercise his will instead of simply asking for help. Hence the reason he will lower these charges." He smiles "As the head of the Shadows I have many folks searching the galaxy for intelligence....I suggest we all work together and put our differences aside and pool our resources to capture him." and folds his arms across his chest.

"Technically first-degree murders is charged by a multitude of factors. Premeditation is merely the most common. The killing of a law enforcement officer is also classified as first degree by the very nature of who it was committed against." Zairon says waving a hand in dismissal. "However, that's a minor detail for the case of courts."
Zairon sighs. "If you say you don't know where Starkiller is, I honestly have to believe you. Ire believes you are hiding him because of his former Jedi ties and preventing him from being put on trial. I doubt this, however regardless the Starkiller issue we do still have a problem with two Jedi having killed law enforcement agents and high command members and not even being taken to trial." Zairon points out. "At the very least we need to address those matters." Zairon says. "The concern that is held is that the Jedi are above the law. They can break it and get away with it."
"I would be willing to work together with the Jedi and help provide assistance in the matter of Starkiller if it were guaranteed that upon his capture he was to be tried by the Empire since he attacked our fleets and a few of our planets. Any Jedi would be more than welcome at the trial, but I'm afraid that's the best deal I can offer without confirming with the Emperor. I do know that he is very set in stone that the RGE puts him on trial and executes him."

"Well you believe what you want....same as your boss. But understand this. When I tell you something you better believe it's the truth. He uses the Force to enhance his words as he slaps his hand down hard on the table. "Now as far as an alliance in the search for StarKiller You have my support and my resources.....but we will have to talk to the council and the Galactic senate.....but I'm sure with my recommendation they will go along with this. So pass this on to Ire and if he wishes I will be glad to meet with him further on this. Take the case of whisky to him as a peace offering and give him my word....I am as eager to bring StarKiller in as you are." He reaches into his jacket pocket and pulls out two Cohiba's "would you like a cigar?"

"I'm fine." He says declining the cigar. "And I'm glad we can work together on the Starkiller issue. But that still doesn't change the matters of Nick Owabi or Johnathan Kenobi."

He sighs and stands. "Well then here..." He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a comlink. He places it on the table next to Zairon. Give this to Ire...this is a secure comlink with a one use chip in it. Once we end the conversation the chips inside will self destruct. I'm at his convenience and will be happy to meet with him whenever...and wherever. As Luke and Mara are away on a mission and Master Windancer is also in the outer rim it falls upon me to handle this situation until they can be contacted. I will make sure we get Johnathon and Nic returned back to the Temple as soon as possible. For now I bid you safe travels." he turns and heads for the door. "I can show myself out if needed." and smiles.

He looks at the young man and nods. "On Two conditions....First you must receive permission from Zairon and second....You will take a shuttle down, alone. No offense but it's bad enough you have a fleet parked over us. I will lead you down planet side, you will follow and not deviate from the assigned course." Looking back to Zairon "I give you my word as a former soldier that the young man will come to no harm and will be returned to you in the same way."

*Sam nods then looks at Z. He knew Z would let him because he said so before Pappy came but for he should say it for Master Kenobi's ears*

Zairon nods, "You have a leave of absence Lieutenant Sam. Stay as long as needed. You can take one of the shuttles and return it when you come back to Carratos. We have plenty and I don't mind." Zairon nods with a smile.
Suddenly Zairon glances down at his datapad which has a level red priority. He quickly reads it and raises his eyebrow. "Well, well, good news. Charges against Camulus are being dropped. I'll take this comlink back to Ire and he can work something out regarding the rest of the issues."
Zairon stands up and smiles, "Thank you for your time, Master Kenobi. I apologize for the various issues that made it rather chaotic. Have a safe trip down. Once you are off the ship we will leave. May the force be with you."

He bows to Zairon and then nods to Sam and moves to head back to the Stalker. He coms VH-5150 to prep the ship for flight. "Well Sam as I stated stay close and we will be landing at the Temple, My wife will escort you to the Infirmary and assist you with anything you need. I will see you on the surface." He reaches the ship and deactivates the security and lowers the ramp. He walks up and as he enters and raises the ramp he turns to look at Rico in the cargo area. "Anything to report?" and the droid walks towards him. "they inspected the ship from a distance but I did not detect any subterfuge, we are safe to fly Master Kenobi." He nods and heads to the cockpit and takes his seat. All systems are in the green and he lifts off.....he exits the hanger and stays on a direct course until Sam's shuttle falls in behind him he then breaks right and heads for the Temple proper.

Comm message from Cait to Pappy.
Pappy can you tell me what is going on? Why do we have an Imperial Fleet parked on our front door?
What is it they want? I got a message from a Lord Zairon but haven't had a chance to answer him yet about a meeting between the RGE and the Jedi. Is that connected to their being here?
I wanted to let you know that I will be on Coruscant for a few days possibly you can contact me there. Then I might be going to Kuat. So let me know what is going on.
I got a message from Grainne and she is on Concord Dawn. Jango just appointed her Mandalore pro-tem until he gets back.
I will talk to you when I get back. Oh and I left Nick in charge of the Infirmary until I get back.
If there is nothing you need before I go I will be heading out in about a half hour.
See you and Gert when I get back.
Cait out.
***Message ends.***

As he flies towards the Temple....Sam following him he coms ATC letting them know they will be landing on pad gamma. As he finishes the conversation he sees he has a message and listens to it....looking at the time stamp she has probably already left for Coruscant. He makes a mental note to compose a message to her after he lands and settles Sam in at the infirmary.

The RGE fleet waits for Sam to disembark and then launches into hyperspace back for Carratos.
"Times like this, I consider drinking..." Zairon mumbles as he stays in his seat in the conference room rubbing his temple.
