"I'm counting on it, in fact," Durindal replied, a smile of relief on his face that she was alright.

"Don't smile at me like that, one might think you are sweet on me... or worse. Going soft." Tate smacks his shoulder playfully.

Keia said:
"The question is . . . was that attack related to Jedi Kanas's distress beacon, from completed unrelated 'bad people', or was Jedi Kanas's beacon a ruse itself."

"All good questions, but I doubt we can answer them in here. So lets get out of this tin can and take a little look-see." She has never been fond of small places but she has gotten use to them over the past few years. Guess smuggling will cure you of most fears. she often told herself.
 

Jedi Group

Bud'd's lekku' coiled and she wrinkled her nose at the feeling of mental oppression that pervaded the area. Instinctively she brought the force about her to help ward off any outside force influences attempting to confuse her senses. *Force Defense +9* As she did so, she instinctively flicked the safety off on her blaster and looked about for trouble that might be lurking. *spot +5*
 

((For everyone, don't worry about labeling which group you're in. I know, and if I forget...well, then all is lost. Also, to speed things up on the need of relaying information to each other on spot/listen/etc checks, I'm going to try out doing them more in the open unless its something in the Force or similar to that.))

Jedi Group:

Eyes searching the wall didn't provide all that much help. You could faintly find small lines here and there in the metal, but there didn't seem to be anything nearby that would resemble an opening of any kind. Further searching proved equally frustrating...though Aalun noticed a small section of the metal, farther to the right side of the wall, that seemed to reflect the light less than the rest of the metal. It was definitely not a rock, though.

The heavy feeling in the air did not fade, though it also didn't get any stronger. But it was still there, almost increasing the gravity on the planet from the usual lightness to a more 'normal' level...which, after days on Rollan, felt strangely heavy.


Crash Group:

The escape pod itself had no sensors, but there were two survival kits tucked into a small compartment, an emergency comm device, and a viewport. The round viewport looked out into the forest you had come down in...showing it to be, hopefully at least, night. It was pitch black outside, save for the small dots of a few distant stars that you could see despite the bright lights that inhabited the interior of the escape pod.

It was also impossible to tell where, exactly, on the planet you were. Before your ship had been shot down, you were on a direct heading straight for the source of the distress signal. Save for any huge course change that shouldn't have occurred anyway, the escape pod should still have come down relatively close to the original heading.

"Don't smile at me like that, one might think you are sweet on me... or worse. Going soft."
"Trust me," Durindal countered, "If it was a choice between the two, it's definitely the first."

Tate said:
"All good questions, but I doubt we can answer them in here. So lets get out of this tin can and take a little look-see."
Durindal rummaged around checking compartments while he was looking for any sensors the pod may have had. "Fair enough," Durindal replied, offering Tate a survival kit, "I found these kits and an emergency comm device. I don't think we should activate it . . . it may just bring the people that shot us down."

Durindal pulled a breath mask from the survival kit, but didn't put it on . . . just keeping it ready in case. "If you're ready, let's see what's out there other than night-time."

If Tate agreed, Durindal will try and open the pod door.
 

Tate just laughs at Durindal's retort then batts her eye lashes at him. Taking the kit from him she nods in agrrement to not activating the comm device. Taking the hint and following his caution she removes the mask from her kit as well. "Waitin' on you, muscles." She replies while he tries his hand at opening the door.
 

"I suppose we could just cut a hole with our lightsabers, but I'd rather not try that just yet." Aerek said, looking for any kind of distinctive markings, or even anything that would give the general size and shape of what's been burried here.
 

Skyka Tarkrak: Human/Female (Force Adept 1/ Jedi Guardian 6)

“I agree,” Skyka said objecting for more practical matters as she joined Aerek in his hunt, “as I would expect it would take a very log time for them to cut through.”

"Aalun may have found something." The gand says as he reaches out to touch discolored metal... whatever it was... he'd hoped it was some kind of activation plate for a door. As he reaches, he reaches as well to the force hoping it guides his hand.
 

Crash Group:

The main hatch of the escape pod, thankfully, opened without any trouble. It hissed slightly before swinging outwards and the rush of cool air swept in...along with a few very interesting smells that seemed to exist in all forests. Or jungles. Whichever this was, you were at least sure that trees were everywhere.

You could actually see some of the night sky above through the tree cover, but that was mainly due to the hole your landing had created. But the one thing that you noted immediately(well, after the apparent lack of any wildlife nearby), was the odd shift in weight. Everything suddenly felt just slightly lighter. Not enough to allow you to jump up to the atmosphere, of course, but just enough to be somewhat disorienting at first.


Jedi Group:

Before Aerek and Skyka could find anything else, Aalun touched the discoloured section carefully. All of you heard the distinct click, but Aalun also felt it as he pressed something in very gently. There was no other sound for a long few seconds, and then you all heard another click.

This one was louder, and seemed to echo through the metal, which shook for a moment before you all heard a grating sound. Looking to Aalun's right, a hatch could be seen sliding inwards. From the new opening, a soft light spread out...but nothing jumped out and attacked. Not only that, but through the Force, the area felt oddly calm.
