*Cate chuckles in return.
She walks over to a table and sits down.*
Good then I get to see you first.
*She gives him a teasing wink.*
I'm glad to hear everyone is doing good.
James and Jael must be getting big.
I haven't seen them in a while.
*Sighs*
Too busy.
The story of my life lately.
*She shakes off the sad feeling.*
I have missed you as well.
You look good.
Going home agrees with you.

*He sits down at the table with her.*
Yeah, they're getting bigger now. Jael, she looks so much like Kaden that,
*He pauses momentarily and looks down.*
She reminds me so much of her.
*He shakes his head and smiles.*
James, he looks much like I did at that age.
*He laughs quietly.*
Thanks Cait. Going home did do me good. I felt at peace there.
*He orders a glass of iced tea.*

Ah,... Yes she does.
She is turning into a beautiful young lady.
*She reaches over and puts her hand over his and squeezes it in sympathy.
Then picks up her glass again.*
Yes, I thought that the last time I saw James.
He is going to have to beat the ladies off with a stick when he gets older just like his dad.
*She gives him a wink.*
You're welcome.
Yes, I can tell.
Your aura is more at peace than when you left.
So what are your plans?
*She takes a sip of her root beer.*

*He chuckles quietly when he hears her and he nods his head.*
Yeah, you're right. She sure is.
*He grins and laughs quietly.*
Yep, James will definately have to do that. That's for sure.
*He smiles softly when she squeezes his hand.*
I know. I'll be okay.
*He sighs quietly and shrugs his shoulders.*
I don't know. Pick up where I left off in the Infirmary Research I guess. It'll give me something to do at least.

I know.
I can tell.
I can feel it coming from you.
*Smiles when he laughs.*
I'm glad to see it.
It has been too long.
*She then changes the subject to work.*
Well I could use the help.
Research is more your strong point than mine.
A new bio-weapon has surfaced while you were away.
It was directed at the Jedi.
The preliminary analysis shows an unknown element is contained in it.
Luckily it was discovered before it could be used.

Was it the Yhuuzan Vong or someone else?*He nods his head when he hears her mention the word Research.* Yeah, I did say I was gonna run a Research and Development Lab didn't I? Might as well make use of the promise. I'll see what I can do. |

Someone else.
They called themselves the Organization.
Original, huh?
They were based on Zhar.
Yeah, why they pick us we had nothing to do with what was going on there, I have no idea.
The facility on Zhar was destroyed and most of the members of the Organization were killed including the Leader.
But some of their members were already in place with "the Foam"
that is what they called the weapon.
They tried to get it pass security by get this using a seven year-old boy.
They told him it was shampoo and it was harmless.
They caused him to have an accident just so that they could get the stuff into the Temple.
They shot the air-car he was riding in.
I think that meant for him to be killed but he survived.
*Cate looks angry at the thought.
She clenches her hand.
She takes a deep breath to relax and let go of the anger.*
After I talked with him the truth came out.
He is now living at the Temple.
Ikrit tested him and he is Force sensitive.
His name is Sam Wilson.
The med-droids did the initial analysis.
They are good at what they do but we need someone who can look outside the box and find an solution to this.
An antidote.

An antidote. *He quietly listens to her explanation and nods his head, feeling his anger build slightly. He takes a deep breath and calms down.* Using a seven year old for their dastardly plans. Pathetic. At least the boy is okay. Force sensitive you say? Strange it did not affect him.*He nods his head.* I'll get to work on the antidote after I learn more about this toxin, and after I get the lab set up. It needs to be cleaned after no one using it for so long.*He smiles grimly.* I always manage to come back when there's some deadly epidemic possibly on the loose.*He shrugs his shoulders.* Oh well, the life of a Jedi I guess. |

Yes, it is and cowardly.
The Foam was in sealed containers. I think that the containers were suppose to melt in the fire and release it . Or we were suppose to open them. And release it that way.
*She take another deep breath and releases trying to calm herself.*
Unfortunately for them their plan fell apart in more ways than one.
I can give you what I know.
And the med-droid can give you the data that they have collected so far.
The toxin seems to affect primarily the brain and the senses.
It causes hallucinations and paranoia.
*Gives a sigh of relief when he says he will work on antidote.*
I know it will be in good hands then.
You will have to look.
Order anything you need the Temple will cover the expense.
*laughs*
You got me. Good timing, maybe?
Lucky us.
Maybe a new line of work?
*grins*

*He nods his head listening to her.*
Yeah, it is cowardly. Especially drawing an innocent child into the middle of it all. Like I said, pathetic.
*He breathes a sigh of relief.*
Well, that's good to hear. If they're in sealed containers, they'll stay sealed until I get proper equipment to examine them.
*He raises an eyebrow and looks at her.*
Hallucinogen and paranoia. Wow, that'll really affect a Jedi. Especially if we can't use our senses.
*He grins slightly.*
Well, I hope the medical department has a huge budget then. I'm gonna need it in order to set up the lab like I was planning on building.
*He chuckles quietly.*
Yeah, our line of work. But, its who and what we are. We can't change that. Honestly, I don't think I'd want to. Our lives would get too dull and boring.

Yes.
I agree.
He has had a hard life too.
Luckily his injuries were not as serious as they could have been.
Hana was there and pulled him out of the wreckage.
She got him to the infirmary right away.
*She shakes her head over what Sam told her.*
I think he likes being at the Temple, now.
*Smiles.*
I think he and Hana sort of bonded when he was in the infirmary.
Yes, that is why I had the droids doing the initial analysis.
I didn't want to risk anybody becoming exposed.
Yes, though the effects seem to be temporary, thank the Force.
And before you ask no I didn't experiment on anyone to find out.
Someone that it was used on contacted me to warn me about it.
That is how their plot was discovered and was stopped.
*laughs*
No worries on that score.
If we don't have enough to pay for it in the Temple budget I will fund it.
I want us to have the necessary equipment and facilities.
*chuckles*
Unfortunately that is true.
And we would miss it after about a day.
If that long.

*Kevin walks into the Spire and takes a seat at a corner table, music player in hand. He turns on his music player and starts to listen to music, nodding to Nick and Cait*

*He listens to her and nods his head.*
Hana? Oh yes. Gus' former Padawan. I heard she was promoted to Knight recently? If so, then good for her. She deserves it.
*He smiles.*
Well, at least the boy's got a friend at the Temple and someone to talk to.
*He chuckles hearing her.*
Cait, I wasn't even thinking that you were experimenting it on someone. Not in a million years dear cousin.
*He grins.*
If need be, I can aid in the funding as well. I've got some put back at home to use for emergencies. I can use that.

*Cate sees Kevin come in and smiles. She waves hi.*
Hi Kevin.
*To Nick*
Yes, she was.
I'm very proud of how far she has come in such a short time.
Gus's Force spirit helped her out.
A little unusual but it worked for them.
Yes, it is.
He seems to be making friends which is good.
He needs that support especially after what he has been through in his short life.
His parents threw him out and told him not to come back.
A seven year old out on the streets alone.
*Cate shakes her head in disgust.*
*At his comment laughs*
I didn't think you did, cousin.
Just wanted you know how I found out.
*Chuckles*
I won't fight you over it.
Just as long as we get what we need for the lab.
*winks*
