| abstract | - C3PO leaves the Falcon. C3PO> Spaceport Center - Capital City C3PO> If there were a hub of spaceport activity in the galaxy, Capital City's Spaceport on Etti IV certainly gives the impression of being just that. The flow of traffic, human, machanical, and otherwise through this area is impressively busy. The building is luxurious in the manner of the rest of the city, walls of permacite reaching up to a strong arching ceiling spotted with clear, thick glass showing a vermillion sky. Ships of all types land constantly under the ever watchful eye of Authority Security as visitors and businessbeings rush through this gateway to Corporate Sector Authority.

C3PO> Port District - Capital City C3PO> Though the buildings in this sprawling area of the city are low permacite structures, the general feeling of the Port District is one of foreboding menace not clearly defined. despite this, many visitors of many races mingle here, taking in the plethora of shops, bars and nooks dotted densely throughout this place.

C3PO> W leads to Spaceport Center - Capital City ETTI IV. C3PO> You step along a wide avenue lined with places of residence. C3PO> Residential Avenue - Capital City C3PO> The avenue is long and wide, meandering a bit under the red sky between houses and odd spiky trees. The ground is paved with a light fused stone, bland compared to the wide variety of housing on either side. Houses of low build peep from between the harsh trees, most residences with a few small home office businesses here and there. Though it seems at first glance to be difficult to find just the residence you are looking for, there seems to be some order to the chaotic arrangements. C3PO> Contents: C3PO> Lamppost C3PO> Obvious exits: C3PO> E leads to Memorial Park - Capital City . C3PO> W leads to Port District - Capital City . C3PO> You move along the avenue toward the park. C3PO> Memorial Park - Capital City C3PO> This is a medium sized, yet aesthetically pleasing park. A multitude of colors abound, from the bed of roses in the right hand corner to the orchids that surround the monument in the middle. However, the color that most stands out is green. A large number of evergreen trees loiter the outer rim of the park, while old stoic oaks line the many inner sidewalks. Almost all of the park is covered in healthy, green grass. Scattered all around the park are signs that read, "PLEASE DO NOT WALK ON THE GRASS, AS IT IS A LIVING MEMORIAL TO THOSE WHO HAVE DIED IN THE SERVITUDE OF THE CORPORATE SECTOR AUTHORITY, THANK YOU." C3PO> Contents: C3PO> Duke C3PO> Piper C3PO> Chantinelle C3PO> Kuxli C3PO> Obvious exits: C3PO> W leads to Residential Avenue - Capital City . C3PO Notices Chantinelle looking at him. C3PO> C3PO shuffles along the road, glancing around. C3PO> Chantinelle looks at the incoming droid and releases a deep sighs, "On no!" C3PO> Duke turns his head sharply to the entrance to the park, watching it's every move. C3PO Notices C3PO looking at him. C3PO> Kuxli sits on a bench next to Chantinelle, with Piper standing near them.. he glances up as the droid walks in, a frown forming on his furry face. C3PO> Piper glances in the direction of the droid, turning an odd glance back to the young Horansi. C3PO> Chantinelle whispers to Kuxli and Piper, "I know this type of droid! They aren't able to stop talking when they started once! So be carefully!" C3PO> C3PO hesitates only slightly as he notices the group of people. He seems distracted, as if he wishes he could run, but it appears too late. Feigning ignorance of the fact of his being recognized, he whirrs forward, "Oh, hello." he intones politely. C3PO> Kuxli makes a quiet growling noise from within his throat.. he cuts it off though and just stares impassivly at the droid. C3PO> Chantinelle waves slowly, "Greetings." C3PO> Piper nods shortly to the droid, giving it a curious glance. C3PO> Chantinelle turns back to Piper, "So why all the security for you? Look at me, nothing, even no guards around me and the Empire is normally paranoid." C3PO> C3PO provides a curt bow toward the young Horansi and turns to the female, "Um.. beg pardon.." he stammers, noticing Piper, "I didn't mean to interrupt." C3PO> Chantinelle hmms and becomes curiously into the droid cuz the dilpo-droid didn't greeted her even, "Hey you, golden one, who are you?" C3PO> Piper continues to watch the droid curiously, not turning her gaze from him as she answers Chanti passively, "The Authority values it's high ranking staff. A safe, healthy employee is a productive one." C3PO> Chantinelle laughs out loud, "Wow, this is really great!" C3PO> C3PO turns to the female, "Hello. I am C3PO human cyborg relations, it's a pleasure to meet your acquaintence." he blurts out, but something in his tone tells that he is only speaking from logarithms, not any real happiness in the situation. He bows diplomatically, flailing his arms as he speaks. C3PO> Kuxli's ears lay back, and he looks over at the two, "Excuse me." he says in a low tone. He stansa from the bench and approaches the droid, "Do ya need something 3PO?" C3PO> Piper folds her arms and continues to watch the droid as the young Horansi speaks with him. C3PO> C3PO steps back from the rising creature, "Um.. no." he weakly states. He gets that look again, as if he would run if he could. "I was sent on an errand to find the commands to enter your local public hyper map server..." he looks around him, as if looking for someone. "I'll just be on my way then." he seems to look for approval. C3PO> Piper asks the droid in a sharp, neutral tone, "Sent by whom?" You walk out of the Millenium Falcon. Spaceport Center - Capital City If there were a hub of spaceport activity in the galaxy, Capital City's Spaceport on Etti IV certainly gives the impression of being just that. The flow of traffic, human, machanical, and otherwise through this area is impressively busy.

C3PO> Kuxli eyes narrow some, and the faint growling noise returns.. an ear turning to the side as Piper speaks.. C3PO> Duke sits sharply at a form of full attentiveness, back flat, head up, eyes fixated forward, ears perked. C3PO> C3PO replies, a bit shakily, "Um.. the co-pilot of our ship." he pauses whirring, "It seems they have locked us out of the comms channels, and we can't very well leave until we have a complete download.. it seems.." he adds, not quite comfortable with the ins and outs of hyperlane services or the protocols they involve. You move east, into te Port District. The area looks a bit darker, and you feel watched by many eyes. Port District - Capital City Though the buildings in this sprawling area of the city are low permacite structures, the general feeling of the Port District is one of foreboding menace not clearly defined.

C3PO> Chewbacca comes into the park from the west. Memorial Park - Capital City This is a medium sized, yet aesthetically pleasing park. A multitude of colors abound, from the bed of roses in the right hand corner to the orchids that surround the monument in the middle. However, the color that most stands out is green. A large number of evergreen trees loiter the outer rim of the park, while old stoic oaks line the many inner sidewalks. Almost all of the park is covered in healthy, green grass. Scattered all around the park are signs that read, "PLEASE DO NOT WALK ON THE GRASS, AS IT IS A LIVING MEMORIAL TO THOSE WHO HAVE DIED IN THE SERVITUDE OF THE CORPORATE SECTOR AUTHORITY, THANK YOU." Contents: C3PO Duke Piper Chantinelle Kuxli Obvious exits: W leads to Residential Avenue - Capital City . Chantinelle gets nervously at once and looks around. Chewbacca lumbers in and growls agitatedly toward the droid. He keeps his distance from the group. Chantinelle oohs, gets paler in face but she stands up. C3PO seems to be in mid sentence when he is interrupted by the growl, "Oh my.. it seems he's come to find me." he states pleasantly, with a tinge of relief. Chewbacca barks again, sternly. Kuxli looks over as the wookiee walks in, then shoots a glance at the droid as it speaks... his ears laying back. Chantinelle scans carefully Chewbacca but remains quiet. C3PO almost affords a frown, "I certainly will be glad once we leave this place." he muses, softly, "the hospitality certainly has gone downhill of late." he glances behind him to make sure the Wookiee is still there. Chewbacca folds his arms from his place roughly several meters away. He whufs disparingly. Piper scowls fiercely and focuses her attention now fully on the Wookiee who has just approached. Her arms remain folded across her chest, the dog by her side rises from his sitting position, the fur bristling on the back of his neck. She states rather loudly, "You realize there is a warrant for your arrest." Chewbacca remains motionless and replies to Piper with only a slow nod and annoyed snort. Chantinelle moves slowly behind Piper and drags Kuxli behind her. C3PO stammers, "It seems.." he says turning to Piper, "We need those hyperlane codes before we can leave." Kuxli lets Chantinelle lead him behind Piper without resitence, but keeps his gaze on the wookiee, a scowl on his face. Piper remains in her stance, her voice growing a touch louder, "A warrant I am obligated to see properly fufilled, hyperlane codes or not." C3PO speaks as if reading the Wookiee's thoughts, "He is fully aware of his status as a renegade here.." he glances over at the Wookiee, who has a blank expression, "I feel he is rather perturbed about the whole incident." Chewbacca makes a motion as if to turn his back, then abruptly growls at the droid to hurry it up. C3PO startles, "Um.. well we must be going." he makes a movement that could be considered a bow, then whirrs hurriedly toward the Wookiee. Chantinelle produces fast a comlink and speaks into it. Chewbacca turns to follow the droid then pauses, looking at Piper and Kuxli reproachfully. A glimmer of sadness in his eyes. Chewbacca turns back around slowly, his expression holding a thousand words. He moves with effort after the droid. Kuxli remains where he is, watching Chewbacca leave.. leaving his ears flat but his scowl now gone. Alora comes into the park from the west. Alora has arrived. Chewbacca is walking away from the group, slightly behind C3PO. Alora walks slowly along the street, ignoring the comlink on her belt. Chantinelle sees the newcomer and bows respectfully To the woman. Chewbacca has his head down as he walks. Piper stands facing the Wookiee, arms folded and glaring at the pair. The canine at her side is growling ever so slightly, the fur on his neck bristling. Kuxli is standing a behind a little to the side of Chantinelle, his gaze on the departing Wookiee and droid.. his normally perked ears pressed flat back against his head. Alora looks up to see Chanti, andnods slightly. Chewbacca and C3PO continue their movements away. The droid whirring with ever movement of his joints and the Wookiee, dragging along tiredly. Alora arches a slender brow as she sees the wookie and the droid pair. "Well well well, what _do_ we have here?" Chantinelle says, "Ahhhem, err could a wait for a second , please Sir!" Chewbacca stops and tilts his head at the woman. Slowly, the face strikes a chord in his memory and he backs up a step roaring at her. He seems defensive. Alora smiles softly, "Ahh so you remember, how splendid! And what prey tell are the two of you doing here?" Chantinelle moves before Piper to get chewbacca between her and Alora and Piper and Kuxli out of the line. C3PO stops and moves slightly behind the Wookiee, "Oh dear.." he says. Chewbacca seems agitated from other events, this just the icing on the cake. He woofs out a terse string of words.. Chewbacca says, "I didn't expect to see you here. Look we were just leaving, I'm not sure why you're here, nor do I care." in Wookiee. Alora arches a slender brow, and then looks to the slender droid, "And just what was that?" Kuxli remains silent, just watching the 'scene'.. his ears now perking up to hear better the words exchanged. Piper speaks up in an authoritative tone, "They're about to be arrested, actually. They've no business in Authority space." C3PO steps from behind the wookiee and prepares to go into diplo mode. If he had a shirt to tug on, he would, "He says, we are just leaving, and he has no interest in your presence here. He doesn't want any trouble." the droid replies metallically. Chantinelle turns over her shoulder to Piper, "Thats right, but the Empire is handling this!" Piper raises an eyebrow, "The Authority can handle this matter." Alora sighs softly, and shakes her head. "This is CSA space, they will handle this." Chewbacca turns sharply at Chantinelle, his fists balling up. He growls over his shoulder at the droid. Chewbacca says, "Run!" in Wookiee. Chantinelle nos, "They want to flee!" she shouts. C3PO startles and jogs away from the group as commanded, "Oh dear.." he exclaims. Alora raises her hand, trying to calm the situation. "First off, stop the shouting.. all you are doing is adding to my headache. Secondly, this is CSA space, it is their law that is... Oh not againt." Chewbacca pushes the droid forward, running on his long legs. C3PO almost stumbles, "Look at the mess you've gotten us into!" he shouts at the Wookiee as he whirrs along quickly. Piper raises her head sharply, pushing past those closest to her to persue the Wookiee. Chantinelle sighs and glances strangly at Alora, "Well M'Lady you are of course right!" and turns her back to Chewie. Chewbacca is in mid stride when he stops abruptly and falls to one knee. A shaggy hand clutching at his throat. Alora nods slightly to Chantinelle, a small knowing smile on her lips as watches the wookie. "I always am." Chantinelle looks at Chewbacca astonished and gasps with wide eyes, "Why he..." C3PO is several paces in front of the Wookiee. He stops and turns around, "Chewbacca!" he says. Piper slows in her persuit as the Wookiee falls to one knee, and she reaches into her pocket to produce a communications device. She speaks into it quietly, but with authority. Alora smiles as she slowly strodes towards the wookie. "Having trouble breathing?" Kuxli remains standing in the same spot he's been in the whole time, his gaze darting about... eventually focusing on Alora and Chewbacca, with his eyes wide and ears perked up. Chewbacca chokes out a snarl toward the woman, his eyes bulging with anger. They flit around at the group approaching him. He motions toward the droid to keep going. C3PO rushes away, "Oh dear.." is all he seems to say. Piper snaps a sharp command to the canine, which then bounds after the droid. Alora turns and looks to Piper, "How long til your guards arrive?" Chantinelle comes after Alora glancing at her and the fallen wookiee. Piper keeps her attention focused on the dog and droid as she says, "Very, very soon." Alora nods slightly, "Good, we would not want the Wookie to be killed." Chewbacca raspily breathes, one hand on his throat, the other against the ground. He peers up at Alora. Chantinelle whispers to Alora, "M'Lady will you let the wookiee be arrested by CSA forces?" Alora nods slightly to Chantinelle, her gaze on Chewie, "Why shouldn't I?" C3PO is jogging along, flailing an arm at the dog nipping at his golden heels, "Stay away you nasty creature!" he shouts. Eventually the dog over powers him and he goes clanging onto the ground, still flailing and shouting, "Please help! Help!" Chantinelle argues with Alora, whispering to her. Alora sighs softly and rolls her eyes. ""THis is CSA space, theywill arrest the wookie. The Empire will not barge in on its closest neighbor and ally." she says eying Chantinelle coldly. "Are you questioning my decisions?" Chewbacca coughs and scrambles up to a stooping position near Alora. A squad of Espo guards rush into the area, glancing around the area with an alert gaze. They note the VicePrex's presence and she nods to them, motioning to the Wookiee. They make their way over in his direction. Chantinelle loses now all her color in her face and gulps, she lowers ashamed her head ,"No of course never, M'Lady I would dare! Let me excuse my behavior!" Chewbacca grabs the closest Espo by the shirt collar, sending him sailing. Alora nods slightly to Chantinelle, and then looks back to the wookie. "It is excused." she says matter of factly. "Guards, make sure he is bonds are securely closed. We do _not_ what him getting away again." Duke snarls fiercely at the flailing droid, snapping as his appendages swing about in the air. C3PO shouts, "Oh! Help!" swinging uselessly at the dog. Kuxli says something to soft to be heard, perhaps a name, perhaps not.. but his gaze does not waver from the wookiee.. Alora rolls her eyes. "Maybe we should turn the droid _off_." Piper nods absently to Alora, watching the Espos try to apprehend the Wookie, saying, "Perhaps that would be best." Chewbacca has one hand still clutching his aching throat, a fierceness growing in his eyes. He bashes the next Espo in the side of the head, sending him promptly to the ground before the rest subdue him enmasse. Alora looks to the wookie, her voice cold, steely. "Stop it now, or I shall destory your golden friend, and then crush the life from you as well." Chewbacca attempts to fumble with a comlink, before it clatters onto the ground. He whines roughly, choking out the noise, then glares at Alora. Duke snaps upward and grasps a flailing golden arm in his jaws, shaking it viciously about. Alora arches a slender brow. "Which is it? You have five seconds..1.." Chantinelle yiikes and moves to the Wookiee, "Stop it, its senseless, you know it!" C3PO screams in a high pitched wail, "Ohhh!!" his arm being slowly devoured by the creature, "Chewbacca help!"
