Knights of the Old Republic: The Last of the Sith(Master Kanas' Group)

[drothgery]

Aerek thought Skyka needed the rest a lot more than he needed to do anything else, so he had no intention of waking her up -- at least, not for anything short of an attack. But while he didn't have any objection in theory to her falling asleep in his arms, in practice it wasn't all that comfortable; he wasn't anywhere near as tired as Skyka was, so he remained wide awake.

No one ever it said it would be easy. And that applied just as much to love as it did to becoming a Jedi. There are going to be a lot of traps waiting for her -- to seek revenge, to just stop caring about the rest of the galaxy, to believe that she was the only one that could save the galaxy. And if the Sith learned there was a young Jedi with her potential who stood close to the edge, they would do everything they could to push her over it. But he was determined to make sure she did not, or to drag her back if she did.

She might not feel the same way about him as he did for her, and this was hardly the time to ask about such things. But he wanted to make sure such a time would come.

Master Kanas led his two other apprentices carefully back out to the ruined village. Stepping through the ruins and the remnants of the previous fight, you look up to see a small, almost box like ship slowly coming down through the atmosphere and towards you. In a rather unsteady few moments, the ship shakes a little and finds a small section between a couple of the huts to set down.

Once down, a soft hiss comes from one of the lower section of the ship and then it went silent. The cockpit's viewport was up too high to see any movement within, so Kanas kept his distance, right hand near his belt and ready to get his lightsaber...just in case. He looked to both Bud'd and Barrick and spoke quietly, "I do believe that these Jedi are sincere, but at a time like this I believe that caution may be best."

Barrick nods at Master Kanas' words. "Where you lead, I will, follow, Master," he says, his jowls quivering. "But you are right to be cautious."

(in the village)
"I certainly hope they are being truthful, Master. I don't know if I can handle another fight. I don't know if my companion here can. either."

After a moment or two, a black and brown mottled furball unfolds itself down the ramp, revealing itself to be a large (is there any other kind?) wookiee. He too has his hand on his saber, but has not drawn it yet. He looks cautiously at the group, and calls out "Wrrrrok J'dai! Srra Wryy'etth graaanaaa, kaaaaa'rr." Shyriiwook:

Master Jedi! I am Wryy'etth, Padawan, and here to help."

He watches to see if they seem to understand, while gesturing towards the ramp at another, still in the ship. He is lightly dressed, lacking robe or other coverings, and simply bearing a bandolier with a few grenades, and a heavy blaster strapped to his side. His saber hangs from the same belt.

Caitriona 'Cai' Stormflyer, Jedi Guardian 6, WP/VP: 51/14

PPTTIIISSSS the ramp on the Peaceful Remembrance lowers revealing a deeply tanned human female with short dark hair and wearing brown robes. She follows the large male Wookie.

After the Wookie growls the woman bow deeply to each of the Jedi assembled before the ship. "Master Kanas?" she asks, and when he identifies himself "I am Jedi Padawin Caitriona Stormflyer, and this is my fellow student, Jedi Padawin Wryy'ethh. We came as soon as we could. I hope that we can help"

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 5)

Less than an hour had passed before soft moan Skyka rolls subtly in Aerek’s arms before setting down in them once again, though she was still tired Skyka had slept hard and for the moment her emotions where in check.

Her dreamy ice blue eyes looked up at Aerek in a mix between wonderment and confusion but Skyka voices no objects as she looks deeply into Aerek’s Blue eyes.

Finally she interrupts her own thoughts with a question, “How long did I sleep?”

 

[drothgery]

"A little less than an hour. I was trying to decide if I should carry you to bed, but I didn't want to wake you." Aerek answers.

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 5)

Taken back by Aerek’s choice of words Skyka raises a curious white eyebrow at him but as a slight blush takes to her pale cheeks she realizes she had probably misunderstood him do to her own sleepiness, “So… Ahhh, what what’s going on? What did I miss?”

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Master Kanas watched the wookie and the human step down from the ramp, looking carefully to Barrick for a moment before saying, "If you are students...where is your Master? And ah..." Master Kanas paused, obviously unsure of whether he should speak anymore, but continue anyway, "...what are you doing out here? We were...assured that there were no other Jedi in this sector."

"Gnaaaahar RRARRK! Wahrah..." Shryiwook:

Spoiler

Our Master was killed! We are....

*Wryy'ethh trails off, and looks at Cai, clearly giving her the lead.
