"Ugh...uh, zig-zag around the crowd, they'll obscure us." He points at a clearing in the traffic. "That way!"

Janos waits until Uri secures the droid and then he twists the handle to accelerate the speeder bike forward. Luckily the droid, for the most part, doesn't weight much and maintains it's thrusters to stay floating as Uri holds onto it's hand. The speeder lurches forward and then begins to move down the street and around pedestrians and other obstacles.

AZI-3 screams, "This is highly irregular and not the proper procedures for transportation."
They make their way through the streets and out into the open sandy planet without further incidents. Once they exit the city, Janos estimates they are approximately 10-15 minutes away from the ship. Turning the speeder to the west, they speed onwards towards the ship.

Driving through the streets, Janos carefully accelerates a bit, trying to buy more time. Quickly, he comms Wile, "Wile! I'm on my way with a friendly on a speeder bike. We're being followed by a bounty hunter. I think we're being tracked as well, so better get ready for a quick take off."

Uri turns off his lightsaber, pulls out a glow rod, and uncovers part of the speeder engine while they fly to see if he can give it a temporary performance boost.

"Roger that." Wile responds as he lowers the landing ramp.
A few minutes later, the speeder with smoke still coming out of its engine drives up the ramp of a YT-2400. As smoke fills the cargo hold, Wile raises the landing gear and the loading ramp and begins to lift off.

As soon as the ramp is up, Janos cuts the power to the speeder. "I've got to check and see if that bounty hunter hit the speeder with a tracker," he explains to Uri as the ship lifts off. "Help me look. If the Force is with us, we can smash it before we hit hyperspace, assuming we get that far."

"Okay." Uri circles the speeder and looks underneath it. "Who are you people? I'm Uri."
