((This takes place WAY before the old republic -or- the war with Exar kun. This is basically our own time-period. This is when the jedi were almost in total control of the galaxies fate.))
The junkyard workers makeshift 'Cantina' proved to be much fun on this night, a night in which Zero's screwed up future would be changed for ever. For it is here the destiny takes it, and it is here that destiny shall thrust it into a spiral of light and dark.
The ancient manual lock door slid open, as a strange human wearing long and elegant black and white robes entered the cantina.
Choosing carefully, it picks a seat in a dark shadowed corner, and sits down with a quiet intesity, ordering a Juma Juice from a passing bartender droid. Taking in its surroundings it sips its drink, observing a few new faces around the cantina.

*The Arluna flew through space at an amazing speed, especially considering the fact that chunks of the exterior had been blasted away, exposing the now damaged wiring of the ship. In the cockpit, the ship's pilot was desperately trying to keep her beloved Arluna in flight, her hands flickering over the controls almost faster than most people could keep up with them. Blasted space pirates... Myra thought to herself as she tried to come up with a solution to her predicament. It was then that she spotted Ord Mantell as it came into view. Deciding that she didn't have much choice but to land, she set her course for the planet.
It most certainly wasn't the smoothest ride, but she eventually managed to dock in a junkyard on the planet's surface. Letting go of the breath that she had unconsciously been holding in, Myra briefly gave thanks that she had the Force on her side before she lowered the loading ramp and exited the ship. First, she took a few steps away from the ship, examining the damage. It looked as though she would be here a while. Sighing, she glanced around at the place the Force had brought her to. Deciding she had no choice but to scout around, she set off, her lightsaber secured safely to her belt. It wasn't long before she stumbled across what seemed to be a cantina. Hoping to find someone that could help her, she cautiously entered the building...*

Sensing Myra's presense a smile arced in its lips, and it looked up from its drink.
"Hello there..." It says, its oddly feminine voice wringing forth from a shadowed corner near the door.
It had been a while since the last jedi it got a chance to speak too, so one arriving like this was perfect timing.

*Myra immediately turned her head toward the sentient that addressed her, her bright eyes wary as she observed it. She could instantly feel the Force flowing through this being, although she wasn't sure what to make of it. Another Force sensitive... Here?* "Hello..." *Cautiously, she took a step closer, casting a brief glance behind her at the others in the cantina before turning to study this stranger. She wasn't sure if it was male or female, and its odd appearance even made her wonder if it was human or not. Although it sounded somewhat rude and intrusive to say before introducing herself, she couldn't help but ask a question.* "Who are you...?"

It eyed her, noting her cautious behavior and movements, and besides the force that swirled about her like a whirlwind, it knew she was a jedi just by the way she walked. "Zero..." It says, a smile arcing in its lips.
It indicated a seat at the front of the table. "Do not worry young one...it is safe here." It says, casting a glance around the room, before its gaze returned to the one standing before it.

*Myra hesitated a moment, unsure of whether or not she could trust this stranger. Although she could sense no ill will, she knew that the dark side could cloud everything, even her judgement of this being before her. However, she cautiously took a seat anyway, deciding that, while she was on this planet, she was going to need to get to know a few people if she expected any help.*

A smile parted Zero's lips, as it ordered another juma juice from the passing droid, and handed it to the person sitting before it. "Hmmm...i take it you are wondering whether or not i am human?" It asks, its gaze never leaving Myra's.

*Myra was a little surprised by the question, briefly wondering just how powerful Zero was in the Force... Powerful enough to read thoughts? Myra quickly shook the thought off, telling herself that she was just being paranoid. After all, Zero was probably used to the question.* "Yes, I suppose I am... among other things..."

With that it took another sip of its juma juice and laid back, prepared to answer the question. "Yes, i am human." It says, looking at Myra again. "but no...i am neither a man nor a woman...i am simply both. It is hard to explain." It says, casting a glance at some Zabrak's off in a corner. "But before i go on...may i inquire your name?"

*Myra, now even more wary of the stranger than she was to begin with, was reluctant to share any of her own information. However, it was quite unfair for one person to do all of the talking, as Myra had found out many times before.* "My name is Myra... Myra Zaltana..."

"A Jedi Knight yes?" Zero asks, butting in before the girl could answer. "I was a Jedi Master, you remember Master Enna right?" It asks again, sipping its juma juice and casting another cautious glance at the Zabraks.
They looked like slavers, carrying heavy Blaster Weapons, and wearing heavy looking armor. Every know and then they'd cast a glance over towards Myra and Zero.

*Myra's eyes widened slightly at Zero's questioning. She lowered her voice slightly as she began to realize just who she was conversing with. She hardly even noticed Zero's glances across the room, paying far too much attention to the conversation.* "Master Enna? You're Jedi Master Zero Enna? But Master Enna disappeared from the Jedi Order..."

Zero chuckled a bit. "Yes...i disapeared long ago." he says, lowering his voice to its normal whisper-tone. "But i did not die...nor was i captured by sith. I've been living here, searching for answers to questions i asked long ago." He says, watching the Zabraks more closely, trying to figure out what they were going to do.

*Myra thought on this for a moment, wondering if this being truly was Zero Enna. She had heard stories of the unique Jedi, and it wasn't hard to believe that this was really the person of those tales. She was drawn out of her thoughts when she finally noticed that Zero's attention was focused elsewhere. Myra casually glanced over her shoulder around the room, her eyes falling on the Zabraks that had been glancing over at them. She slowly turned her attention back to Zero.* "Who are they...?"

"Zabrak Slavers...or bounty hunters i dont know what to call them.." Zero says, moving its hand to the hilt of its lightsaber, getting ready. "I have a feeling its going to get violent soon..." It says, giving Myra a friendly grin. "And then you will see who i am..."
