In retrospect, he supposed this was why he and Jedi had never seen eye-to-eye. His main contact with them had left with a bitter impression - one that spoke of large scale oppression when emotions were involved. To some extent he could sympathize - hell, he could be just as emotionally dead at times, and he certainly had been in the past - but at other times... Sighing, the Bounty Hunter ran a hand through his hair, expression smoothing itself out as the shuttle landed and the Rutian woman disembarked the vessel. Naturally, there was an armed guard waiting for him, and instantly Ulic was on alert, registering the new type of armour he had never seen in his lifetime. Granted, since that lifetime happened to have been three-thousand years ago...
Slipping out quietly, he watched through a gilded mask as the medical team ran up the ramp to the Zabrak girl, and he found himself resisting the urge to shoot them in the back.
With a start, Ulic shook his head. He was losing it again. He had never felt the urge to be this violent in the past. He was quiet, softspoken - he didn't taunt Jedi, he kept himself low, and he didn't speak unless directly addressed. Why was he different here and now?

Aayla looked around a bit and spied a few Jedi who were walking towards the inside of the temple. She turned to one of the troopers and signaled them in some manner to go get Yoda. The trooper nodded to her and walked off. She looked to Ulic and noticed he was tensing up. A small hmm escaped her lips as she kept a close eye on him.
"Something troubling you?" She asked him, more concerned for everyone around them rather than the male. Another trooper came over and directed his attention to Ulic as well. Aayla smiled at the trooper and seemed pleased to see them.
"Hello Bly, didn't expect you to be here." Aayla directed her comment to the trooper that had just shown up. He nodded to her quickly before looking back to Ulic.
"Hello General. Excuse me sir, you will have to hand over your weapons." He held his hand out to Ulic to get the weapons that the man hand on him. Aayla knew it was standard procedure to take weapons from those not affiliated with the temple.

Turning wary eyes towards that of the masked trouper, Ulic wordlessly handed over the blaster, his eyes shining wryly as he easily held back a visible smile depicting the wryness of the situation. What would they think of him, carrying a weapon such as that? Granted, he could still easily kill with it, no matter how old it may be here, but the model itself - well, he doubted it was even in production anymore.
Not that it had been in his time. When one had Siri Katarn, Zeltron extraordinaire on their team, one never wanted for things such as weapons. She always either had them brought in from some shadowy side-dealer, or she would make them herself from scratch, providing they purchased the parts for her.
"Hey, I'm making your weapon for you. Like hell I'm going to pay for it, too."
"You Zeltrons are so rude!"
"I'd like to see you try to make one of these, Rutian."
"Siri, Nalan, calm down."
That was, naturally, before they had become friends, back on Taris - a planet long since dead, eradicated completely by a fleet of Sith weaponry, killing almost everyone on the city-wide surface. It was hilarious, in retrospect - the rich, who had so prided themselves on their ability to live on the surface, had died in the bombardment while the poor, outcasts (aliens) and criminals had survived.
The galaxy had a way of coming to kick one when one was down. Ulic figured it was finally his turn for it.

Aayla looked at the weapon she handed the trooper. The trooper was probably very confused by it underneath his helmet. She looked back to Ulic and realized it was probably going to take the trooper too long to locate Yoda. The twi'lek turned to the trooper in front of Ulic and thought of how to phrase what she needed to tell him.
"Please let the other trooper know I am going to take this man to Yoda, myself." She watched the trooper nod and saw a few others come up to help with escort. The twi'lek was some what relieved by the matter and started to walk towards the entrance to the Jedi temple. The troopers walked behind Ulic and waited for him to follow.
((OOC: Sorry for the shortness. I couldn't really think of what to do here. DX))
