He found a group of smugglers who raised him from then on, he learned many of his skills from them. His brother Doran killed the smugglers because h thought they were harming James. Doran dropped James of on Raxus Prime where he built his ship and escaped. He joined the New Republic for some reason unknown to him and found meaning in his life.

James nodded as Rodya spoke, he didn't feel the need to speak and he didn't have much to contribute. He set course for Gala and when he hit the switch he watched as the stars stretched out into streaks of light before they rocketed forward at light speed. He didn't know what they were going to encounter on Gala but Rodya seemed to have a solid plan so he tried to relax for the time being. (Going to Gala.)

The ship came out of hyperspace in an empty region of space, James knew it would be best to plan and discuss their mission first before doing anything rash. "So, what do you think we do first?" He asked in his most professional voice he could, he didn't want him thinking he was just a kid which he was but he had seen things that had aged him mentally.

(Delete this post please.)

James stood up to leave the room, he needed to get his ship first before going to the base. He realized everyone had left and made his way out, he knew that he would be a little late to the base but he needed to ditch the ship he had then and get a more reliable ship. He would explain to the others later if it was a problem. he reached his ship and started take off preparations before he set coordinates for Mon Calamari and let the ship take off. He saw the stars streak as he jumped into hyperspace and was gone.

James thought about it for a moment, he was one of the best and brightest which caught him by surprise. He knew that this was an elite group; a couple of Jedi, a bounty hunter and teenager. He knew that they wanted him for his technology skills which were pretty advanced and assumed he was the only only one with those skills that they could find. It would be easy enough to fake his death as he had no family other than his brother who he hadn't seen in awhile and was probably dead already and nobody really befriended him as he was always the loner. He made up his mind and was going to help. "I'll do it." He stated without even looking up to see their responses.

((I am playing Krote like he can read people, I'll try to go into his back story later. And I know this is short but I am horrible with posting when there isn't much to describe on.)) Krote's eyes darted towards the bounty hunter as he was mentioned. "Yes, sir." He stated with a salute. He nodded before making his way to a chair and sat down. He wanted to know exactly who the man was, if he was to answer to him he needed to know who he was. He pushed those thoughts put of his mind and gathered himself, he waited for what was to come with excitement.

James snapped out of his daze when a com came in. He followed the instructions of where to land intently, he noticed that a couple other ships were there and his muscles relaxed a bit as he knew that he wasn't alone. He walked into the suite and looked around, he noticed a man in armor and a Jedi. James thought that the man in Mandalorian armor was his brother but quickly realized it wasn't and turned to the Jedi and appproached him, he figured he was in charge. "Sir, are you the one who sent the com?" He asked respectfully.

James stopped in orbit around Trulalis, he wasn't told anywhere specifically to go and so stayed there. He knew that this was important but he didn't know how, he was relatively new to the Republic and knew that it wasn't likely they would trust him with something dire. One thing that also confused him was that he was contacted from an anonymous source, he hoped it wasn't a trap and should have checked it out but he was too naive and trusted everyone. He sat there waiting for some type of further instruction, his mind was on other things but had a part of mind specifically focusing on the com.

James landed on an isolated landing pad, everyone scattered off in different directions, he quickly gathered his things and left. He made his way to a "store" which was really a run down building with a sign in front. He collected some street clothes and changed. He hid his weapons from view but kept them handy in case he was jumped. After talking to some locals and convincing them he wasn't trying to bust them he found a "business" that unmarked the ship he "found" and wanted to keep. He payed with what he had and then got out of there as fast as he could. The ship started up nicely without trouble and he navigated it away from the landing pad. He set course for Trulalis and was gone in a blink of an eye.

James took off after preparing the ship to do so, he flew towards the shield and waited by an asteroid to conceal his ship. As he saw a ship coming towards the prison he prepared himself, when the shields went down he floored it and made it, the other ship followed his lead but wasn't so lucky and crashed which caused James to get angry at himself for not helping them. He let out a sigh of relief after navigating through the asteroid field, he set course for Mon Calamari too see if he could help.

((OOC:It's been more than tree days so I am posting again.)) James was careful not to set off any alarms that they could prevent, he knew the usual places for such device; around corners, open areas and around important rooms. He knew that they might be caught but he had to try and that is what kept him going. He was slightly out of his element with no accessible computer terminals or droids he could use, the only skill he had that was useful was his knowledge of security and security procedures which came in handy for choosing what turns to make and when to hide. He came to a hangar with a couple of patrol ships and got into one, a couple of prisoners joined him and the rest got into another one. James readied the ship for take off making sure it was in workable conditions. He strapped in and got ready to escape. "Strap in guys, this probably will be bumpy." He said in a cool demeanor which was surprising coming from such a young kid. ((Second escape post.))

((I don't know what level I'm on of the prison so I guessed a middlish one.)) James had been up for a few hours, he was scared and sad. All of those people on Mon Calamari that died because he couldn't get help. He felt horrible. He was standing by the bars of the cell and was leaning on them, there was a guard patrolling down the aisle of cells. James got an idea, he figured out the time it took for the guard to make a round. As he was crossing his cell he stuck his foot out causing him to trip the guard. James dropped to his knees and grabbed the guard's keys, he opened his cell and placed the guard in it after disarming him. After James let out all of the prisoners he could they set off. James didn't want to hurt anyone but he wanted to make it out alive and the people he would hurt were bad so he was doing the Universe a a favor in a sense. ((Post one of escape.))

James was roughed up as he was shuffled around the Imperial Base and put into a small cell. He sat down against a wall looking for any escape route, but was unlucky and didn't find one. He knew he would be there for awhile before he was released or killed so he kept looking. After awhile he slowly drifted off to sleep and would awaken with his strength back which would be useful if he found a way out.

(Defense Post) James noticed that he was under fire, he thought back to his time with the smugglers that basically raised him. He remembered one tactic that was right for this situation. He used his maneuver thrusters to make an 180° turn with the engines still on, he quickly changed directions without creating an arc. He flew towards Dac at full speed. He flew close to the ocean and realized he wasn't escaping with the Empire breathing down his neck and without the option of using a hyperdrive.
