Writer Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 "Not so bad," Crystal said, coming in behind Jasra. "Weeds and tangles, there may be, but always a path... and if no path, make one." She shook her head. "We are near the second shard. I feel it..." She looked slightly dazed and stared out at the trees. "What am I saying? I never know! Nevermore!" With an impatient sigh, she turned and left the cockpit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Jasra looked with concern at Crystal as she left. "Right. So, if we go exploring for this shard, I think Crystal will go with me so I can keep an eye on her. She's just... not... quite... right. Yet." She turned to Atton. "And you can keep an eye on Kira."

3yks Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 The ship waited, out there in space, watching the Hawk land. He considered absently, he knew what was going on ont he ship, in part ... Jasra had made sure of that, not that she knew she had. Should he just wait here? they were collecting these shard things that Togo wanted, getting them all into one place. He considered, as he wrote up a quick report, detailing the situation, that he was still observing. He'd land once they had disembarked, and catch up to them.

The Doctor Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 The Doctor sighed heavily, and massaged his temple again, his eyes open this time. *Well,* he said. *Perhaps we should begin our search. Though I believe we should stick together this time,* he continued. *We must keep an eye on Kira.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 "I don't need a bunch of babysitters." Kira said irritably, appearing behind the Doctor's shoulder, "I can take care of myself, thanks." Atton cringed as he looked her in the eye. Her gaze was sharp and ice cold, and the gold tinge was visably brighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 *Kira, I'm sorry,* said the Doctor apologetically. *But I'm worried about you. Besides, Dagobah is dangerous. Nobody should be allowed to wander off on their own.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 "I've survived Malachore twice by myself. I think I'm fine." Kira said, throwing the Doctor's appology to the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 *Alright, then if not for your protection, then for ours,* countered the Doctor. *The rest of us, particularly Nyssa and Tegan, are not as experienced with danger as yourself.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobQel-Droma Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 "Um..." Karda interrupted. "Maybe not intelligent life - but it's dangerous out there, I can feel the creatures. This place is alive with darkness." He looked at Kira's goldish eyes. "Doc's right, we need to stick together. There is no knowing what is out there." Just as he spoke, he felt something. Like - like a... tug on him, from somewhere. The Shard he thought. But it wasn't calling to him as strongly. He could feel the power, the darkness, unlike the other shard - he could only normally sense the one on Manaan - but it wasn't as strong as it was to Kira. Maybe Jasra was right, maybe the different shards pulled on different types of people. He just hoped that he wasn't the right type for any of the shards.

The Doctor Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 The Doctor's breath shortened, and he sighed again, a small grimaec of pain playing across hi sface. *Alright,* he said. *Then that's settled. Nobody wanders off on their own.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 "Fine." Kira said quickly, "Let's go, then. The faster we get out there, the faster we find it." She had felt it. The Shard was calling to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Stepping outside, Jasra wrinkled her nose. "Ugh! What's that awful smell? Methane?" She shivered as though something was making her skin crawl. "Let's just find this shard and get out of here." Suddenly, something large and buzzing swooped out of the sky, directly at her. With reflexes that surprised even her, she whipped out her lightsaber and cut down in mid air. The split carcass of the large insect twitched before her feet before oozing strange coloured and even stranger smelling excretions from what could only be described as a mouth. "Eew..." she grimaced. Frowing worriedly, she looked at Karda and the Doctor. "What kind of life forms did you two say were on this planet?"

ForceFightWMe12 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 "A little jumpy today, eh Jasra?" Atton joked as the woman seemed to practically have a heart-attack. "Put it this way," Kira said, going passed her and careful to walk on areas that wouldn't give way beneath her, "There's something waiting to eat you at every turn, especially in the water. Keep your eyes peeled." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 "Yeah, well, I'm not planning to be anything's lunch," said Jasra, following behind Atton while she looked warily in the air for any more giant insects on the warpath. "And I'm definitely not planning on going swimming." She gave a quick look at Crystal behind her. "You still know how to use that thing," she asked, looking at the lightsabre hanging from Crystal's belt. "Right?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Crystal glanced down at her saber. Then, she took it in her right hand and held it up in front of her face. "Muscle memory," she said quietly. Then, she laughed softly. "The brain's a muscle too." Nodding, she said, "Yes, yes." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceFightWMe12 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 "Good," Kira said, hacking at some brush with her saber, "You'll need it. Now c'mon, the faster we get the Shard the faster we get out of here." And the faster it becomes mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 "Good, good," Jasra replied to Crystal, although her expression still showed she was worried. "Tegan? Nyssa? Maybe you two and the Doctor ought to walk in-between those of us with weapons. Just to be on the safe side." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 "Shard?" Crystal looked rather alarmed. "Oh..." She activated her lightsaber and slashed through a bush, suddenly becoming very silent. Deactivating her lightsaber, she moved to follow Kira. As she followed she began muttering. Kira could hear her voice, but was not close enough to hear the words; Jasra could just barely catch a little of what was said. "Little golden strand becomes bigger," Crystal was saying. "Binds, dominates, squashes, penetrates. We can't handle it. Can't fight, can't run. We are overwhelmed. Ultimate penetration... senselessness." At this, she fell silent and shuddered slightly. Still, she walked, following Kira onward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Tegan slipped on the uneven ground, and fell into a small patch of dead leaves on the ground. A few dozen small rodents scurried away, emitting high pitched squeeking noises. The Doctor helped her up. *Careful, Tegan. Yelt rats can be viscious, if the queen is put in danger.* He turned to Jasra. *Perhaps you are correct, Jasra. I would have brought K9 along with us, but he's not suited ot this terrain.* ---------------------------------------------- ((Alright, I'm going to post as the newly created villain of the story, Darth Thanatos. The human fell to the floor at the feet of Lord Thanatos, quivering in terror. Flanked by two Dark Jedi, he curled into a ball, trying to protect himself. Thanatos turned and spoke, his voice barely more than a dark whisper. "Where...is....she?" "I... I do not... do not know, Mi'Lord. Reports say that she was seen on Mannaan... she-" "She is not.... there." The voice seemed to come from the cloak itself, the man's face no longer visible beneath the hood. "I...I..." "I tire... of your excuses.... Kaytok..." he said. "You... have failed me... for the last... time." He slowly drew his lightsaber, the black runes inscribed on the hilt gleaming. "Mi'Lord, I beg you! I have news! Of her companions!" "Her companions are of no use to me." "Mi'Lord, they are more than simple humans. One of them is another Jedi, by the name of Karda-" "I know of her companions!" The voice didn't get any louder, but it became more viscous, more like a growl. "I have felt them through the Force! Four have joined her since she landed on nar Shaddaa. One is dead." "Mi'Lord... there are seven." Thanatos stood, and Kaytok only assumed that he was staring at him, though his eyes were not visible. "You dare to-" "Mi'Lord, they are not like any other forms of life in existance! They do not seem to have any connection to the Force!" "THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE!" he said, raising his lightsaber. "THE FORCE BINDS ALL LIFE TOGETHER! THEY COULD NOT EXIST WITHOUT THE FORCE!" "Mi'Lord, our spies have seen them! A man and two women - Grentl, on Nar Shaddaa, saw them with her. He heard their conversation as he refuelleed their ship." "Show me!" Kaytok stood slowly, and moved to a terminal on the wall. He pressed a few buttons, and an image of three women and three men appeared on the screen. One of the women was the Exile, two of the men her past companions. The other three were unfamiliar. "This man... he calls himself 'The Doctor', Mi'Lord." A soft hiss escaped the folds of the cloak. "What do we know of him?" Kaytok hesitated. "Nothing, your excellence. We have never heard of this 'Doctor' or his companions before." Thanatos made to strike, but Kaytok spoke quickly. "Mi'Lord, there is more!" he yelled. "This Doctor, he... he's... changed, since this image was taken." He operated the console again, and an image of the Exile and her companions appeared on the screen, the massive sea of Manaan stretched out behind them. "This man, with the blonde hair, and the strange vegetable attached to his robes... he also calls himself 'The Doctor'." Thanatos growled. "Bring him to me... along with Her and her Jedi companions. Destroy the others." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Their progress through the thick swampy jungle was painfully slow. Jasra continually kept looking behind her making sure that the others were behind her, while trying to keep an eye out ahead for Atton and Kira. But when she saw Tegan stumble, she decided that she needed to say something. "Atton?" she called out ahead. "Can you get Kira to slow down a bit?"

ForceFightWMe12 Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 "I can try...but if I loose an arm, I'm blaming you." Atton joked. He hurried ahead to catch up to Kira and Crystal. "Hey, Kira..." Atton glanced around, but saw only Crystal. The Exile was gone. "Kira!" the Scoundrel frantically turned to Crystal, "Where'd she go?" - - - - Those idiots were only slowing me down. Kira thought as she hacked her own path through the jungle and swamp. Blood now mixed with the mud on her boots, having run across the path of an unfortunate preditor. Her eyes were now brighter amber than before, the natural blue beginning to disappear. When she sneered, the beginnings of fangs were spotted in place of her cainine teeth. I'll find the Shard before any of them, and they won't be able to take it from me. It will be just one more for my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 The Doctor looked around worriedly. *Oh dear. Perhaps we should split up to look for her. Groups of three?* "Nyssa and I will go with the Doctor," said Tegan. *No. We will need to travel with people equipped with weapons - we are the only three without.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 "Run, run, run," Crystal murmured. "She runs to escape, to escape the slow ones, to find the..." A look of terror came to her face and she began to run... not on the path they'd found (and had been making), but straight through the tangled mess to her right. Within just a few seconds, she was lost to sight, though they could still barely hear her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasraLantill Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 "Kira!" Jasra started after her, then paused, as Crystal took off to the right. After a moment of indecision, she said to the Doctor, "I'm going after Crystal. The rest of you find Kira. Just make sure that if you split up, there is at least someone in the group that can wield a lightsabre. One of you three can come with me." She ignited her sabre and began hacking a path in the direction Crystal had fled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 (1000th post!!! W00t!!!)) *Tegan, quickly! You said you travelled through Jungles back in Australia, now's the cahnce to use that experience,* said the Doctor. *Go with Jasra and find Crystal. The rest of us will find Kira.* "Right, Doctor," she said, following Jasra. *Right, we need to split up,* he continued. *Atton, I belive with Kira gone, you are as close to a leader we have here. How shall we begin our search?* ------------------------ ((A little more info about Darth Thanatos. He doesn know about the Key to the Galaxy, but isn't concerned with finding it. He posses one shard (Jasra, I need to talk to you about this - it's important), and is therefore not worried about finding the others. Sorry if these posts are boring - they're intended to show just how much Thanatos knows about the crew of the Ebon Hawk - and sorry, but he's going to be obssessed with killing the Doctor, having never heard of him before, he considers him a threat. There will be a big scene with the two of them, in which I will steal some of the dialogue from numerous episodes of Doctor WHo, as well as the 1996 Telemovie.)) "You summoned me, Mi'Lord?" Thanatos didn't turn, but stood with his back to Kaytok. Again, his voice was a soft hiss, as if it wasn't issuing from a mortal mouth. "Have you found Her yet?" "Yes, Mi'Lord. We have traced her ship to the Dagobah system. They have landed on Dagobah itself." "What have you learned?" "We have learned a great deal about one of her companions. His name is Karda Jal-Ordo. He's a Jedi Knight. A Sentinel, to be exact. He was born on Kashyyyk, his parents forced to-" "I do not care about the trivial life of a meaningless Jedi," spat Thanatos. "I wish to know more about the ones she traveled with during the Purge. This.... 'Disciple' in particular. What do we know of him?" "Well...." said Kaytok, checking his datapad. "His name is unkown. Our sources have been unable to learn much about his past, other than the fact that he served the Republic before joining the Exile." "And what of this....'Atton'? " "He is just as mysterious. He appears to have served with Revan in the Mandalorian Wars. He dissapeared along with Revan, but eventually turned up on Nar Shaddaa before taking a job at the Peragus mining facility." Thanatos growled. "And what of this.... 'Doctor'?" "We still know very little. We have been able to determine that he is not, as we assumed from his appearance, human. He is... mysterious. We have no idea when or how he arrived on Nar Shaddaa, or how he left. There is no record of his ship arriving on the smuggler's moon. But we have heard him speak several times of something called a 'Tardis'. It seems to hold some significance to him, but what it could be, we have no idea." "He is a threat to us...." muttered Thanatos. "He must be... ex...termnimated." "Yes, Mi'Lord." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
