*Note this is an active crime scene following this destruction Here, this thread takes place shortly after the events of the crime.

This galaxy just keeps getting crazier and crazier. Starting with the Arcanist, then that Zapan character and now this..seems kriff is picking up, and it has to be connected in someway. But, kriff if the Brass will let the public know..

Orn stood outside the scene of the crime, a soft rain falling on the city block. A few patrol cars were already on scene, blocking off the commotion. It seemed there barely had been a minute between the announcement of this Jedi master getting arrested and the calls of some bursts of fire and commotion. A few concerned citizens and witnesses stood off to the side, and he knew he'd probably want to get their statements, but he needed to see it for himself, without a bias.

He would flash the badge on his suit, pulling the shades from his eyes as he stepped into the room, he would find droid parts scattered across and a scorched black ash that covered the walls and the stairs. At the base of the steps would lay two fat gammoreans burnt to a crisp. "Poor bastards," he'd mutter under his breath as he stepped over the bodies and onto the stairs. Scorched alive huh?

He would make his way up the stairs finding a body of a Koorivar behind the counter, with a clear laceration across his body. An officer stood on scene, documenting everything. "What's his name," the detective would ask.

"Cardu sir, he owns this place."

The Detective would nod, bending down to examine the body, turning to take a look around. It seemed senseless, random and out of the norm. His ice blue eyes would narrow as he pulled a tightly rolled drag from the inside of his jacket. He would play with the smoke, rolling it in his hands as he stood up. "I'm going to need a bit of time."

"These kinds of flames..." Kal would arrive soon as well, his base of operations being on Coruscant for his work. He'd helped take down a murderer recently, as well as investigating Suspect One at a sighting recently. This was fresh, though, and while it may not have been Suspect One that had created all this carnage, it was perhaps the work of the group he was though to work with, the so-called "Red Sabers". A case like this would help center the Tiss'Sharl, the news that the Rangers were merging with the Coruscant Defense Force having been a big surprise. Well, burying one's self in work was always good.

He made his way over to the lead investigator of the case, a man he knew only as Orn."Kal Zyn Dross, Sector Rangers. I came as soon as I heard the call on the 'net. This all looks...horrifying. I'm at your service." He extended his hand for a handshake, though his eyes were already looking around to take in what details he could from the crime scene. Once an analyst, always an analyst. Once the introductions were out of the way, he'd start the investigation in earnest. He'd follow any orders Orn would give, he was the one in charge here as the first on the scene.

"A ranger," he would pause giving Kal a firm shake, "I suppose I am one as well now." He'd motion towards the holo-tv that was still left on. He'd place his unlit smoke against his lips, chewing on the end as he looked over the body, noting the analyst's comments. "Horrifying...I guess you could say that," he'd say an aloof manner.

His mind was elsewhere, focused on the scene itself, "You saw the flames down there, lacerations across the abdomen, I'd imagine this wasn't a local hit job by The Migrant Merchant's Guild." He'd pause as he peered towards the lacerations on the man's face, they appeared to be scratches of some sort. "Nothing damaged or broken, nothing was looted." He would peer around the room, "See if you can get into the computer systems and check to see if they have footage, I'm going to check and see about these scratch marks."

"I'll be glad to work with you." He smiled, glad that there was a new Ranger among their number. And one that seemed to have a level head and desire to bring whoever had done this to justice. He left to go find where the computer system would be found, bringing his left hand over to pat at his right wrist. Hopefully the system wouldn't be too protected, many business owners not wanting to deal with the hassle of passwords and security in the comfort of what they felt was a private area in their business. These days that wouldn't stop someone really determined, though. If it wasn't just left open, though...

As suspected, the computer system was right on a desk out in the open in the man's office, though to his credit he had indeed protected it from entry from anyone but himself. That's why Kal had his secret weapon, a computer spike on his gear. He inserted it into the appropriate place, watching the machine start to decrypt the security. It would take some time but the files would be his when it was done. For now he waited, wondering if his new comrade had found out anything about the scratches. They had looked like...No, he wouldn't speculate. Best to hear from Orn directly what he had found.

Orn was too focused to look up and acknowledge Kal, "Yeah..I was never good at that computer stuff, so have at it.." His words would drift form his lips as he pulled a pair of gloves from his jacket, slapping them on. He would remove a small swab, which he hovered over the alien's face.

The scratches weren't terribly deep, but they were visible, "Looks like a laceration to the face, claws or finger nails most likely," he'd respond as he began to swab against the cuts that ran down his face, with a soft sigh. Satisfied, he would quickly put the sample into a small canister. "Any luck?" He'd ask as he stood up, motioning towards the officers to begin bagging the clerk.

"Almost done! The owner of this place actually kept his computer system pretty secure. Too bad he met an actual firewall..." The last part was more of a mumble to himself, a bit of dark humor to keep himself from focusing on the more horrifying parts of what had happened here. Kal liked to keep a mask of professionalism and nonchalance up when possible, but in truth he had a heart that cared for the victims of these crimes, seeing innocent people hurt causing him to feel sorrow at their passing. The day he didn't mourn a murder victim was a sign that was the day he should turn in his badge and seek work elsewhere. Or a therapist. Probably both. As his thoughts focused on when such an event could occur, a tone from the computer told him that his spike had finished its work.

Thankfully, the owner of the business had a very organized file system. This let Kal find where the recordings from the camera system were located fairly easily, downloading all of them that he could find. It was possible whoever had done this might have been a repeat visitor to this place, as the likelihood that this level of violence being carried out on a random person was usually very low. Taking the current day's recording down to Orn on a datapad, He went over to the new Ranger to allow him to view the contents. "Figured you'd want to see it first." Sometimes investigations were pissing contests between ambitious Rangers or other officers, yet Kal didn't do this job to raise in the ranks as quickly as possible. He did it for the justice he could help bring, so he didn't have any ego when letting others take the lead.

A rare smile would form on the detective's face as he peered towards his tech-partner. He wasn't sure the things he did to even get through the computer system, but imagined that it was probably difficult. "Good work Kal," he'd say with a rough voice, "Encrypt it and make a backup of the file--we're going to send it in to the Lieutenant..Trys, is that her name?" He was still getting used to the lifestyle changes that were coming with being a Sector Ranger.

He would peer around the area with a soft sigh. "I don't think there is much more we can do here," he'd say as peered out the window. "Hopefully this will provide us with at least further information on who is out there, and cutting these innocent people down." He would motion towards the forensics team to continue to their work as he made towards the stairs--We're just getting started.

Kal nodded, doing as told. Once all evidence had been sent to Ranger Aran, he took one more look at the devastation. Damn these criminals to hell
