*Belaya looks over at Nadya as she asks if there is anywhere anyone needs to go.*
We need to head to Telos. Ze and I must go there and it'll be a safe place for anyone else that wants someplace safe to stay for awhile.

*Nadya looks skeptically at the Jedi woman.*
"Telos? As in Telos IV?"
*She turns around and plugs the system into the nav-charts. Fortunately they were working - unlike most systems on this bucket. That damned Jawa had done more damage to this vessel than if a Rancor had smashed it flat. Why the Jedi wanted to go there was beyond her. Telos was barely on the maps, the only reason she knew the name was because it had served as an outer-rim Republic base during the Mandalorian Wars - a base that the Mandalorians could never break through to. And now she'd just be flying right up to it. Ironic. She mutters to herself.*
"Of all the backwater planets.... Alright, I've got it charted but I have no idea if this damned things hyperdrive will even work - let alone get us all the way to the other end of the Hydian Way. Here goes nothing."
*Nadya pushes the lever forward. She halfway expected the ship to burst into flames. But it didn't, instead the ship lurches forward, throwing her back into her seat, and enters the familiar blue swirling vortex of hyperspace.*

*Mineth had been paying too close attention to the ship's systems to see the sandstorm abate or the other ships taking off. However, when he saw that their vessel was rapidly leaving the atmosphere he took time to breath a sigh of relief before the horror of realization crept upon him.*
"All those people... *He sighed, "May whatever gods they believe in have mercy on their souls." There wasn't much more he could say or do.*
*Someone mentioned Telos IV, he hadn't been there yet, but was sure it would be better than Tattooine. One of the Czerka ships would report the Sand People attack and the Jedi would likely report the Sith on the planet below. Mineth saw several vessels make it to orbit and rapidly jump to hyperspace, as if they were afraid the invaders would grow wings and pursue them off the planet's surface. At least with Tattooine being such a backwater there weren't many ships here that didn't have hyperdrive. If this had been Coruscant or Corellia hundreds of orbital shuttles would be left waiting in orbit for help to arrive.*
*The Bothan silently bade his food cart farewell and wondered if he could collect insurance on it from Czerka later. A few moments later the ship jumped into hyperspace.*
