Ureala:
She waited, watching the clock for hours, counting the minutes until Solomon's return. He hadn't come back. The implication there was that he'd been arrested, which meant they thought he was a suspect. CorSec had done the last check in for a while, leaving Ureala and Jaysten alone to get some rest. All nurses, doctors, droids -- any faculty that might have contact with the two Tekals sitting in the hospital were searched, checked from top to bottom before they were allowed access. She'd heard grumbling about it during the last shift change. It was silent in her room, Jay was curled up on a cot they had provided for him. In that quiet, Ureala stirred, she reached for the com by the side of her bed and dialed. As she waited for a response, she spoke softly into the darkness, "Come on you big bear...pick up..."
Kabe:
A light began blinking on the boards on the Legacy. The computer in a smooth and cool female voice piped up over the systems speakers, "Incoming call, audio only." After a moment the wookiee reached over and punched the button, and also enabled the high-grade translator program he had for unexpected callers, not knowing whether or not they understood Shyriiwook. "Yes?"
Ureala:
"Master Kabraka, its Ureala Tekal. Um... how soon can you get to Corellia?" She said, trying not to break her whisper, knowing that there was a good chance that Jaysten would wake if she did. He would be able to pick up the stress in her voice, as she was doing nothing to conceal it. There was simply too much going on for her to worry about whether or not she was keeping her emotions under a tight lid.
Kabe:
He began flipping switches, opening up the navicomputer. "Well, I'm floating around the mid-rim near Abregado-Rae, so .... Right around 12 hours or less, probably. Why? What's going on, Ureala? We haven't even spoken since Dathomir."
Ureala:
She swallowed, glancing at the door, then to Jaysten before answering. "Somethings going on, Master Kabraka. Darien's...dead." She said, pausing for a moment, as if just saying the words pounded the truth into her mind, "Sol's been arrested. They think he had something to do with Darien's murder and my injury..."
Kabe:
The wookiee sighed and nodded, even though there was no way she could see it. "Alright, I'll be bringing everybody that's with me then. What do you know about what's going on? Are you currently in danger?" He had a whole slew of questions, but he couldn't fire them all at once. He also sensed that time had just turned against them, and so he must act with haste.
Ureala:
She wanted to unleash a ball of sarcasm on him, but bit it back, saying "I can't fight, Master Kabraka. I have an unexplained lightsaber wound on my leg, that is healing slowly. Jay and I are surrounded by CorSec, but I don't think that will be enough."
Kabe:
Kabe nodded. "I don't think we have much time. Luckily, I'll be bringing myself, my apprentice, Lepri, and a whole group of wookiees to help you out."Even as he spoke he was bringing the ship around, and he sent a signal through the Force to Ralrova to join him in the cockpit. He'd need a hand getting the modified Loronar Medium Transport set up to make a run for Corellia.
Ureala:
She nodded into the room around her, holding her breath as she heard a scuttle coming from beyond the door to her room. When it passed, she spoke again, a few moments later. "I will call you, again, if they choose to let us go back to the house. But, for now we are in Coronet City's hospital under guard. They are searching everyone who comes into the room..."
Kabe:
He raised a brow. "Please, CorSec may be good, but I've been doing what I do longer than any of them have been alive, and the Force is our ally. You get some rest, as much as you can. See about getting that leg better. We'll be there as soon as we can."
Ureala:
"I'll see you soon, Master Kabraka." She said, eying the door cautiously as she ended the transmission. The Com was replaced by her bed side, and she hunkered down, settling against the bed. She'd sleep lightly until she was certain of their safety.
Kabe:
Rova entered the cockpit just as he was ending the call. "Sit. Help me get this bucket turned around and set up for a run to Corellia. We've got somebody going after the rest of the Tekals. I'll not have my master and little sister's family killed off if I can do anything about it." Rova nodded, agreeing as well, seeing as by extension the Tekals were honor-family. "Alright, come about .." The rest of their setup went by in a blur as his mind was already working on scenarios of who, and what, they were up against.
