Script hanging at startup

[Skibidyboparoobopadopa]

This script is attached to my custom guards. This method worked for an npc Citizen targeting the player or another npc, but not for multiple targets. It tells me it cannot find an object (Custom Bandit NPC) and crashes my game when I click new game. I was looking through the functions available and it seems like there is none for getting an NPC's current cell. Only the Players. I need a way to compare both NPC's Cells, without the script actually referencing that object unless the cells match, otherwise ending the script. Looks like morrowind scripting is extremely limited. Can anyone throw some ideas my way that would help?
