4 Planning Ahead!
Xytan agreed to not bother her about those visions, but he would still hint things at her when he got the chance. The visions they all saw were merely projections he had seen from the show, being used through the force to show them.
Shaak Ti sighed and bought the droid Xytan wanted, it had yet to be activated but he wanted to use it and upgrade it through the system. Perhaps it could be used for hacking into things, or maybe he could just buy Cortana for that in the future.
Leaving the store, they appeared back on the streets.
"Master Ti, you seem a bit tired, I think you should go to that Parlor over there." Xytan pointed to the store across the way, it so happened to be a Massage Parlor.
"A place where they get Massages..." Shaak Ti was actually tempted when she saw the place.
"Come on, you know you want to, it's just as good as meditation, you should try it." Xytan nodded.
"What would you know about massages, it has never happened to you." Shaak Ti's shook her head.
"It hasn't but you need it, I know what it could do for the body. It can relax a person's nerves and so much more." Hearing this, Shaak Ti really wanted to do it, this war was actually stressful, so she meditated a lot and it helped.
"Ah, I guess I'll give it a try, it isn't a bad thing to get a massage." She had never gotten a massage before, but she obviously knew it wasn't anything harmful.
Both of them quickly made their way to the Massage Palor; there were mostly female attendants of different alien races as workers here. Particularly the one behind the counter, which Xytan identified as a Mirialan.
"Hello, what can I do for you today?" The woman smiled, she had black tattoo's on her face with a head full of black hair.
"Ahem...well, I would like a massage if that's possible." Shaak Ti seemed a little embarrassed.
"Sure thing!" The Mirialan woman began to explain a few things, they talked for a bit until they came to an agreement on something. Xytan wasn't really paying attention, he was focused on his new droid instead.
"Okay, you stay here for a bit, don't even think about going anywhere." Shaak Ti looked him and said seriously.
"Well, since you mentioned it, now it's hard to not think about," Xytan said with a smile.
Shaak Ti gave Xytan an eye squinted glare.
"I know, I know!" Without saying anything, Shaak Ti went to the back.
Xytan scoffed in his heart, he wasn't planning on staying here. He started to meditate and wait...yes, wait—he wanted Shaak Ti to get comfortable before running off. Xytan waited patiently for a while before he could feel that she had let her guard down.
Xytan had already activated his crow droid, it was called an AS-11 type Droid.
"AS-11, can you tell me where a quiet and secluded alleyway is located?" Xytan asked.
"Yes, searching!" With those words, its eyes flashed blue and a holo map appeared.
"Wow..." Xytan looked at the map and order AS-11 to lead the way. Coruscant was busy and filled with people walking the streets every day, so it wasn't easy getting through sometimes; mainly with his size.
The droid stood on Xytan shoulders, it was quite big in size, so it really couldn't fit much on his shoulder—so it had trouble balancing itself.
.....
"Hmm, you see that—look at that kid, he's all alone." A man with a donut style hair cut caught sight of Xytan and stated.
"The kid is carrying a droid, he seemed to be rich. If we can capture him and sell him into slavery or use him as a bargaining chip; just imagine the credits we could make!" A man with a scar over his nose looked on with a sickening smirk.
"Must we even decide on this, the answer is clear. We capture the boy and decided what to do with him later; either-or, we'll earn some good cash regardless." Another man with faded blonde hair suggested.
"Okay, but we have to be careful; this planet is ruled by the Republic. They have that army dressed in white, and they aren't to be trifled with." A bald man said cautiously.
"Of course, we'll just knock him out and bag him then leave this planet." Everyone nodded in agreement.
.....
Xytan was unaware that someone had bad intentions towards him. In any case, he kept following AS-11's direction on where to go. Within 5 more minutes, he was able to find a quiet alleyway with no one.
Xytan walked deeper into the alleyway as to not attract anyone's attention.
"This should be perfect..."
"It really is perfect, brat, you really save us a lot of trouble!" Right then, Xytan heard a crude voice behind him. He turned to see 5 men smiling at him coldly, their eyes filled with greed and joy.
"Who in the world are you people?" Xytan already felt bad vibes coming from these 5.
"That doesn't matter, what matters is that this is your unlucky day and our lucky day. Well, it may be unlucky for you forever, but you can't blame us." The bald man shook his head with a bit of pity.
"Enough, it doesn't matter—capture the boy so we can quickly get our payout." The pale blonde haired man said sinisterly, he didn't need to know what was going to happen or who they were.
At that moment, 8 figures appeared behind Xytan. It looked like the figures came out of camouflage as if they were there the whole time but hidden.
"Take them down!" Xytan pointed and ordered. Without question, the 8 men dressed in armor stormed over towards the groups of 5 men.
They were shocked, but they reached for their blaster pistols with wide eyes. The group was easily able to recognize these people, it could be no other group but Mandalorians!
Unfortunately for them, they couldn't fire in time; the Mandalorians used the thrusters on their backs and quickly arrived in front of the group simultaneously. The Mandalorians didn't use any weapons, they used their fist and smashed them over each of their heads.
With the armor they were wearing, the men couldn't hold up and passed out with 1 strike each.
"Wow, that was freaking amazing!" Xytan was amazed and couldn't help but think that he would be able to do crazier feats like that in the future.
"Targets are down, awaiting further orders!"
"Do we eliminate the opposers?"
The summoned Mandalorians turned and questioned Xytan.
Before he could answer, AS-11 intervene—saying to wait. Xytan told them to stand by until further orders while AS-11 did what it wanted. The little droid flew over towards the men and started to scan them.
After scanning them, it found that 4 out of the 5 were wanted criminals with bounties on their heads.
"Well, that's isn't much of a shocker." Their actions and even their looks told it all. Xytan looked at the Mandalorians, he could actually see their ratings!

There were 4 Males and 4 Females, their ranks were all White Grades. Xytan knew for sure that this had to be the weakest Rank there was. The question marks by their names meant their actual name; something they didn't have yet.
Xytan rubbed his hands, clearly excited about these things. After which, he started to summon the rest of the Mandalorians, which were the Hunters, Elites, and the Leader.
The Mandalorian Hunters wore Green camo armor, with white and black mixed patterns. They were also more geared than the Mandalorian Clansman Warrior. They sported nets, a sniper on their backs with other snaring and trapping tools.
The Mandolorian Elites wore Red and White armor, they were equipped with Flamethrowers that would come out of the top wrist, 2 blaster pistols, and other tools fit for fighting.
The Mandolorian Leader wore Orange armor, he had 2 blaster pistols as well, he also had a Vibro-blade on his back. He had a wrist device that could shoot mini rockets. His helmet was able to see in most forms of the electromagnetic spectrum upon activation.

There were now a total of 17 Mandalorains before Xytan and he inspected them all. The Leader clearly had the Highest Ranking, but this could be raised through battle and combat like all beings that trained.
"Sir, your instructions?" The Mandalorian Leader asked after a while.
Xytan thought for a moment, then he looked towards the men that were knocked out. He had to prepare and he had everything in mind.
With that, Xytan began to relay his orders and his plans for them. He pointed to the men on the ground and stated that they should turn them in for credits. Afterward, he wanted them to find a quiet place and build a secret base.
Xytan told them to choose a tropical planet since it was best this way, rather than a cold one. He instructed them to build 2 bases on 2 different tropical planets; this was their top priority. It was to be a planet that either had few inhabitants or no sentient ones.
Xytan told them to also stock up on food and credits if they could. The summoned Mandalorians listened closely, without turning away. Xytan knew that this wouldn't be easy, so he bought some droids from the system they could use.
He bought some CLL-M2 binary Loadlifters and some Pk-series worker droids. He bought 5 each, with the CLL-M2 costing 50 System Points each and the Pk-series worker droids also costing 50 each.
They cost more than the B1 Battle Droids, they were good for getting the job done in a convenient manner and many nobles and ships used them.
"You Droids are to listen to these guys," Xytan spoke bluntly to the droids, but he was astonished by the size of the CLL-M2 droids. They made their robotic sounds, indicating they would do so, except the Pk Series that could actually speak clearly.
"We'll be sure to get it done; there's a place here on Coruscant where we can turn these guys in." The Mandalorian Leader gave his suggestion.
"Oh, no, you guys should take them off-world. Your appearance alone would cause great concern." If anyone saw that many Mandalorians in one place, it would no doubt cause some concern.
The Death Watch wasn't in shambles yet, but it was coming soon.
"Understood..." The Mandalorians Leader paused and contiuned "What about our transportation, we'll need a good amount of credits to buy a ship, and I don't know how long that'll take."
"As for credits, I have an Idea to earn many credits. It won't be nice, but it'll get you guys a lot." Xytan relayed his idea and plan, it was simple. The Mandalorians would attempt to assassinate a Hutt; stating that it had a bounty on its head.
The Hutts would, of course, want to live. So, they would say that we could counter the contract and kill the person that sent them for double the price.
"It's shameless, but it might just work!" The Mandalorian Leader nodded and thought this was perfect.
"As for the ship you guys need." At that moment, a large shadow casted over everyone present.
