And Drake got exactly that; an eye roll. When they arrived at the Resistance base and found themselves on the receiving end of their weapons, as expected, Meryl held up her hands and made sure to show no false moves giving them any reason to fire at them. She wanted to ensure that this exchange went over smoothly.

*Saneatsu had been following Drake and the woman to the rebel base. He was lost in thought during the walk and is snapped out of his mind when he realizes that there are weapons being pointed at him.*
Umm, Are you sure it's safe to have come here?

"Umm, Are you sure it's safe to have come here?"
“This is as safe as it gets in Isafaro.”
Drake dropped his long sword and then his Deagle, slowly kicking both towards the armed soldiers at the gate as they neared them with their own weapons still raised.
“Why are you here?”
“I believe that's your cue, babe.” |

"We're here to join you," answered Meryl while keeping her hands in the air. "If you've been paying close attention to the news, which I've no doubt you have, then you'll know that neither Drake nor myself are allied with the Vulture anymore. But if you don't believe us look at it this way, you have the Colonel's niece and Isafaro's Golden Boy as hostages. Either way you can't lose."
Meryl hoped that would be enough. The Resistance couldn't have asked for a better deal either way.

“Smooth.”
“Remove any weapons you have and put them on the floor,” ordered the soldier to the other two while another soldier got on his communicator to report to the commanders inside.
“Is Imai as cute as they say she is?”
“Bite your tongue!”
Drake looked to Meryl and Saneatsu.
“That means yes.” |

*Saneatsu isn't sure if giving up their weapons is the best of ideas. He decides however that it is a necessary risk. His saber is detached from his sleeve and set it onto the floor. He activates the bio lockout, lest someone try to activate it while it's pointed at them. He takes a step back and looks at the he assumes is the leader.*
So can we get these guns not pointed at us? Although I do understand the distrust, it seems you have two options. The decision comes down to truth, which unless you have a truth serum your going to have to trust them.

Meryl removed the desert eagles and the combat knife from her person and slowly placed them on the ground and then kicked them over to the soldiers to be taken. She then put her hands back up into the air before placing them on her head while looking over to Drake.
"Can you think with your head for five minutes?"

"Can you think with your head for five minutes?"
“Where's the fun in that?”
“Follow me,” said the soldier in charge of the area.
The soldier led the three through the gates and into the entrance of the military base while the troops left behind confiscated their weapons. They stopped at the entrance lobby, a large room with silver floors, walls and ceilings leading to four different rooms to the left and right of them and an elevator in the far right corner and directly in front of them was a single staircase. Descending the staircase was none other than Resistance's leader Imai Katayo and their general The Genius.
“These people wanted to see you,” said the soldier.
Drake let out a low whistle at the sight of Imai.
“Even better than I imagined. I didn't know you were keeping children here though.”
“She isn't,” replied The Genius. “And I'd watch who I was calling a child if I were you, Mr. White.”
“You wish to join us?” asked Imai. |

"Yes."
Meryl took a step forward now standing in front of Drake and Saneatsu to address the Resistance's leader.
"My name is Private Meryl Silverburgh. My unit was wiped out by a green haired man by the name of Kailix and I was framed. Instead of seeing the truth the Vulture opt to kill me and it was only by the betrayal of another that I am here standing before you now. Drake White also took on the title of traitor just by helping me. Neither one of us are with the Vulture anymore and we wish to help you in any way that we can."

“You were awfully quick to change sides when things didn't go your way. How do I know that won't happen again?”
“Are you planning on killing any of us?”
“That depends how this meeting goes.” |

"With all due respect, Commander... A superior wanting to kill you for a crime you didn't commit is enough for anyone to abandon their post. But if you honestly don't trust me because of that and have no other plans for me, then I will gladly take my business elsewhere. Just say the word."

*Saneatsu steps forward. He didn't know much of what was going on, but these two seemed important, and from the sounds of things their working together would be either a good thing, or blow up in their faces. However, now was a time for cool heads and a moment of trust, maybe someone new willing to help would make things easier.*
Look, both of you can reminisce about the past later. From what I've seen and can tell you need the help. Especially if we were able to walk right up to your front door without so much as a peep.
However, as you asked so nicely, my name is Saneatsu, and as I have said before I only followed those two because I want to help, and if I don't do something I'll probably get into trouble. I'm a Jedi, we seek peace and to bring balance the force. I will admit that I'm a bit more of a free spirit than the others would like, but I found that finding my path requires a bit more of a relaxed stance.
That being said, the conditions that the people here are forced to endure is horrendous. I would like to render aid however I can. I can fight and can recon. Tough my specialty is getting into and out of just about anywhere and anything. At first I was tempted to go right for the top and to try to take out vulture. But it seems that this situation needs more of a rebel touch. Bring the spirit back to this place.
As for how this meeting goes, I certainly hope that you do not try to kill us at the end of it. I would hate for anyone to get hurt.
*His face is calm and emotionless, his voice sincere. As he speaks he pushes out with the force, spreading out over the area. Not enough for those insensitive to auras and forces to detect, but those who are able to sense such things would feel a cool, light mist creep through the area.*

“You knew what you were getting into when you enlisted. And you did enlist. It's not a case of you being forced in like all the others.”
"Look, both of you can reminisce about the past later. From what I've seen and can tell you need the help. Especially if we were able to walk right up to your front door without so much as a peep."
“If you want to call being stopped by armed guards “without a peep”...”

“What's a Jedi?” Imai asked Genius.
“A member of the Jedi Order who studies the light side of the Force, a mystical energy that is the source of a Jedi's power. They fight for peace and justice, usually for a united Republic. There are three different class of Jedi that I know of; the Jedi who follow and uphold the teachings of the Jedi Order, the Jedi who walk a fine line between the light and dark sides of the Force often dubbed “Gray Jedi” and finally Jedi who practice the dark side of the Force referred to as “Dark Jedi.” I take it you're alone, Jedi Knight?”
“Could you repeat that? I spaced out after the word Jedi.” |

"So I make one bad call and I'm screwed for life, is that it?"

*Saneatsu nods pensively when asked if he is alone.*
There was another, but she ... dissappeared on me and I haven't gotten around to tracking her down. So for now I am alone. However the dark side already has it's hold here. I sense someone here I thought had left us, but that would be too much to ask. However, the name Dark Jedi is not used much anymore. The Grey order existed for a bit, but that too is gone now. What you must watch for is Sith, and they are already here and growing in strength.
As for our welcoming committe, I would think if these two are as bad as you seem to think they are you would have shot first and asked questions later, not that I'm grateful you didn't. However, the fact that you brought us in here means your at least willing to listen to them and talk. I doubt I affected your decision much as you probably didn't even know I existed until this point.
Now the question is will you let them help you or are they, as she so eloquently put it, "screwed for life"?
