The holonet news logo disappears and a young, blonde and attractive woman appears. Her hair is held high in a tight, elegant knot, and her lips, covered in high red lipstick smiles smugly at the "audience".
"Good evening, citizens of the Republic. My name, as you of course all know, is Atir Reteeks, and I am back with more stories about the Jedi. Surely, you all remember" She pauses briefly, blinking her eyes sweetly at the screen.
"How I uncovered the thruth about just how...'well' the Jedi are handeling the Jandoon crisis" Her face disappears briefly, making room for the picture of Master Kian lying in the hospital bed.
"We all remembered the terrible shock we felt, as we learned that the Jedi are not as much in control as they claim to be." She looks at them, an almost sad look on her face.
"But imagine my shock, as I realized the Jedi are not only having trouble handeling the Fallen Jedi. In fact, just keeping an eye on their younglings are proving too much for the Order nowadays. Sadly, I received a tip, saying a youngling had been kidnapped in the lower levels of Coruscant - where she wasn't even supposed to be in the first place. And sure enough, when I arrived on the scene, Jedi Masters were already trying to find anything pointing them in the right direction. Unsuccesfully, I am sorry to report. So not only did this Youngling manage to travel to the lower levels all by herself. She was kidnapped right under the Orders nose, and they have no idea where to find her!" She lays the datapad on the table in front of her, shaking her head slowly.
"Now, I must ask you, citizens of the Republic. Do we really want to trust the fate of the Galaxy to someone, who are not even capable of taking care of a young girl?" She leans against the table, supporting herself on her elbows.
"It is a difficult question to answer, but one we must ask ourself in very near future. The answer might decide the fate of all of us..."
Then, she resumes her smug smile.
"Atir Reteeks, wishing you all a good night"
