Out of the Frying Pan... (d20 Star Wars)

[Dire Lemming]

Kesler advances down the hallway behind Bol, his blaster still drawn but no longer firing. He glances down at the Jedi's fallen Lightsaber. "Hey, Odi, er- Obi. Er- Jedi, you should probably take his Lightsaber." he calls to Femi. "Why the heck haven't I asked those two their names yet?" he thinks to himself as he looks around for the room that would have the window overlooking their hangar bay.

Tal turns to cover the rear, a satisfied expression underneath his faceshield. "Right. I'll keep an eye on our flanks. Anyone sees anything fishy, lemme know." He cocks his head to the side, peeking down the stairs.

"I assume a control panel would give us a map, too. Might lead us straight to the brig," he points out. "Straight TO the brig? Did I just say I wanted to go there?" His voice is glum. "How my world has changed."

 

[Toric_Arthendain]

Femi watches impassively as Lun Kura retreats further down the hallway. He leans down and picks up Lun's lightsaber, tucking it inside his robes. He then deactivates his own lightsaber and places it inside his robes with the other one. Turning to the others, he says, "I have a very bad feeling about this." He starts cautiously down the hallway towards the room where Lun Kura disappeared.

As Femi leans over to pick up Kura's lightsaber, the hilt flies towards the disappearing Twi'Lek's hand, Bol's blaster bolts hurry him along as the door closes. The quick glimpse all of you got of the room showed numerous control panels, perhaps one of which controlled the beam holding Haebes' ship in place. The panel on your side of the door blinks as it indicates that the door has been locked. On the other side, you can hear Kura's voice yelling at someone.

Tal sees no one coming up behind them.

 

[Dire Lemming]

Kesler speaks in a quiet voice so that the hostile Jedi won't hear him. "Oh great, now what? It sounds like he's got either a henchman or a hostage. Either way we better hurry. Anyone got an idea?"

 

[Toric_Arthendain]

As the lightsaber is snatched out of his grasp and into the hand of the retreating Lun Kura, Femi continues forward cautiously.

Once he hears Kura yelling, he re-ignites his own saber and rushes down the hallway to the door where the Twi'Lek disappeared. He will make one attempt to open it. If that fails or the door is simply locked, he uses his saber to either melt the controls to allow him to force the door open, disable the lock itself or if all else fails, to cut a hole in the door to allow access to the room beyond.

Tal continues to cover the rear, heart racing as the young Jedi moves rapdily to the door.

 

[maddmic]

Bol reaches the door and sees the others approaching. He begins to work on the lock. "I really don't like this. I'm hoping that your dear captain isn't in there. That lunatic might kill him and we'll be stuck here."

OOC:
Dunno if he gets there before the Femi or not. Were there any other doors along the way that might house a captive?

 

[shadowbloodmoon]

Femi would've gotten there first, but I'll let you interrupt him. There were no other doors along this pathway.

Femi brings his lightsaber to bear again, wanting nothing more than to cut through the door and into whatever lie beyond. A furred hand holds him back, along him to breathe and focus his mind. Bol then slices the door's lock controls easily. It slides open and you are immediately met with a barrage of blaster fire.

This is obviously the control room, there are numerous stations with consoles and ferraglass to look out over the docking bays. behind some of these stations are the heads of soldiers of some kind that are firing blasters towards the door. Somewhere beyond, you can see Lun Kura going through another door.

There are at least four individuals in this room besides Kura.

 

[Dire Lemming]

Kesler, not having quite reached the door before they had opened it, finds that he is suddenly reluctant to as a hail of blasterfire hits the doorway and opposite wall. "So I guess that would mean the former. Is everyone alright? How many are there?"
