Fire against Fire (Tugoro Taidarious)

[Calo Xenrus]

Among the many things to be found on Nar Shaddar were crime and violence. The moon of the Hutt homeworld was crawling with every sort of aggressive act or conflict ready to erupt. Given how small the moon itself was while containing so many gangs and rivialries some looked at it like a thermal gernade ready to blow at the slightest mistep.

Having arrived on a private shuttle provided by the One Sith the acolyte Calo Xenrus had finally arrived on the crime hive of a rock. He was dressed in the approriate Sith hooded robes and apparel while covering his customized gear underneath. Once he exited he took a moment to shift the harness he had around his shoulders that carried his dual lightsabers on his back. The ride had felt longer than it needed, basically because he was required to stay under the radar while on this small assignment. With one final scan of the area to get his bearings Calo began to jounrey through the crowded space port he was in.

The task he'd been given was simple: to meet with a contact on Nar Shaddar in order to receive important information for the Sith. Without the risk of anything being hacked or scanned everything had been put on a datapad for sake keeping by the contact, a Rodian slicer. Even Calo wasn't sure what it was, only that it was important he deliver it.

As he pushed his way through the crowd of people Calo began to feel something a little off. Some slight disturbance with the force, yet it was hard to say where or who it was coming from. Part of him, however, only thought it was the tension of the mission getting to him and shook it off as he continued onward.

Atop one of the many tall buildings, Tugoro Taidarious had been keeping tabs on the spaceport, keenly watching and classifying most of the ships he saw flying in and out. Most of the boy's spare time was spent out on the streets of the planet city, monitoring the crowds and making sure everyone was safe over all. A slight breeze would roll in, causing the youth's brown robe to billow in the kinetic energy before he leaped from the ledge, landing within the bustling crowds of civilians. With his sensing power and eyesight, the young Padawan had been able to pick out [member="Calo Xenrus"]' craft, along with his dark force signature. Despite the scum and villainy that populated the planet, this Sith's presence stood out like a sore thumb.

That, and he had been expected. The Rodian Slicer that Calo sought out on Nar Shaddaa did not even exist, it having been a clever ruse that Tugoro and his master had set up. After several weeks of surveillance work, the duo had been able to infiltrate whatever ranks were in league with the One Sith on Nar Shaddaa, allowing them to set up this clever scheme. However, Tugoro had decided to go alone, in order to face this Sith and test himself. It was strange, for the force signature the Padawan felt was almost familiar, one he hadn't felt since Coruscant. The boy's form would dart back and forth, slipping through the stream of individuals that populated the streets. The so called "Rodian Slicer" had requested there meet to be in a dark alleyway, safe from the prying eyes of the law.

Finally bursting out from the crowd, the young Jedi would begin to survey his area once more, trying to see if anyone was watching him. Concentrating his force energy within his legs, Tugoro would push off of the ground, soaring into the air in order to land upon another rooftop. Walking along it's surface, the young Padawan would take a seat on it's edge, which opened only slightly due to another establishment being beside it. Below Tugoro, was the alleyway, and he had no doubt that he would be spotted immediately upon Calo's arrival. Now all he had to do was wait.

Further into the dreg of a city and Calo's senses were still acting up. There was something familiar about this singature he felt. Like sensing an old enemy. This bothered Calo as he kept going onward towards the ally he was supposed to meet the Rodian in. With each step he took the more he felt the uneasy sense, now working its way down into his gut as he'd finally come to the ally itself.

He took a moment, looking around, before finally stepping in. However only two steps were taken before he stopped. Something didn't feel right about any of this. The fact that the Rodain wasn't here. The fact he would want to meet in a place like this. The fact that now that sense of a distrubance in the force was starting to ping inside of him like a warning signal. This was a trap!

However Calo didn't react at first. He only stood in the ally and waited for a moment. In reality he was reaching out with the force to try and pinpoint where the source of the distrubance was coming from. Finally he found it. Above him!

With a quick motion he rasied his hands up, using the force to try and grasp whaever was hiding above and force it down to him. After that, wheather it worked or not, he took a jump back before drawing his sabers and igniting them; the dual blue lighted blades hissing as he activated them while waiting to face his enemy.

It had been awhile since Tugoro had first taken up his post, however it seemed like all of the time he had invested into this operation was about to pay off. From atop the dark alleyway, the young Jedi would watch [member="Calo Xenrus"] as he entered, his vision narrowing as he squinted in order to focus more. Was the Sith pointing at him? The danger that Tugoro was faced with would become apparent, as a cold shiver ran up his spine. With his sensing abilities, the Jedi could feel the dark telekinetic power that was surging forth, aiming to wrap around his own body in spite. The force energy that had begun to surround the boy would suddenly come to a halt, as Tugoro began to unleash his own energy, quickly forming a barrier to protect the targeted area of his body.

This would only prevent Calo's force grip from finding it's physical target, instead offering an ethereal one. The Acolyte would make his goal rather apparent, as Tugoro felt himself being tugged off of the roof. His body would begin to slide forward, before leaving the duracrete building completely, descending down into the darkness in which he would meet Xenrus within. Watching the two crimson sabers become ignited, Tugoro's own hand would reach down to his belt, grasping at the shoto hilt that hung among two others. Pulling the weapon his belt's restraints, it's pink blade would spring to life, casting a glow around the young Padawan's body. Now that the areas they stood within were illuminated, their identities would not become apparent.

"Calo?" The young Jedi muttered, his brow furrowing in curiosity and mild rage. Tugoro had not known the man very well, however he had been a great Jedi potential before being killed on Coruscant. Or so, that is what most had assumed about the man, though this theory was now completely blown out of the window.
