Star Wars: Shadow Wars

[Jason Skywalker]

"So, this is a good place to relax and meditate, isn't it? A great place to feel the Force flowing in both us and environment," He asked them.

[TheExile_Hunter]

“I’m not that keen on meditating Zhane…but yes it is a good place to relax and…..”

 

“Jethro!” Someone shouted in the forest. “Jethro where are you?”

 

“Sounds like I’ve got to go….” Jethro stated. “I’ll see the two of you back at the academy.”

 

Without waiting for goodbye’s, Jethro took off and went into the direction Kyla was shouting from. He continued walking through the forest and was out of sight. “Ah there you are. Where were you, I’ve been looking all over for you.” Kyla asked when she found Jethro.

 

“Back there.” Jethro pointed towards the waterfall. “I’ve just met Jakyl and Zhane Kenobi.” He said and they started walking back to the academy. “We must have been too busy training, I never met the guy before.” He couldn’t help but laugh at the idea that he did not encounter Zhane back at the academy before. “What are the odds? One at a billion?”

 

“Something like that I guess.” Kyla responded.

 

“So what was so important you had to tell me about sis? More visitors?” Jethro’s asked. Kyla nodded. “Well, that too, but I wanted to ask you if we could start duelling now.”

 

“Very funny sis…” Jethro said grinning when he turned to her. She didn’t look like she was joking at all.“Wait, you’re serious?” Jethro asked surprised.

 

“Uh-huh,” Kyla answered. “it’s past midnight brother, you said you would duel me today.”

 

Jethro laughed. “…you really are that anxious to get a rematch huh?”

 

“Yes, and I don’t want you to hold back one bit this time.” She remarked. The academy was in sight and they were getting close to the side entrance.

 

“In the few years of my training, I have never seen another padawan so determined to beat his or her master. You really are one of a kind sis, but don’t let your emotions get the better of you. You know it leads to the…”

 

“Yes yes, it leads to the dark side blablabla, now get moving…” She said, pushing Jethro in the back, forcing him through the side entrance. “You’ll be biting the dust before dawn.”

 

“No wonder Luke wanted me to train my own sister, she’s more than a handful for any master.”

[Diego Varen]

Vok walked outside into the tranquil gardens. Many of the students meditated here, to get away from the teachings and to reflect on themselves. Vok admited that he wanted to learn to meditate, so he could get away from stressful days at the office.

[Dark_Lady]

“Jethro!” Someone shouted in the forest. “Jethro where are you?”

 

“Sounds like I’ve got to go….” Jethro stated. “I’ll see the two of you back at the academy.”

 

Without waiting for goodbye’s, Jethro took off.[/i]

 

"Well," said Jakyl to Zhane, "I guess that leaves just you and me, then."

She sighed. "You're right, this is a good place to meditate. But I'm afraid I don't do too much of that. I prefer a good lightsaber duel to sitting motionless with my eyes closed any day."

[Jason Skywalker]

Zhane grinned and ignited his saber.

 

"Care for one?" He asked her.

[Dark_Lady]

Jaykl smiled back, her own silver blade already shimmering in the air.

 

"You bet."

After spending several day's at the station, John got rather bored and moved on to the Jedi Academy on Yavin IV. After landing his first destination was the gardens where he noticed Vok Onasi.

 

"An admiral in the gardens of the jedi temple... without any protection... that's weird" John muttered to himself. Indeed, perhabs we should speak to him "Yeah, why the hell not."

 

John walked up to the adrimal, he was behind him when John said "Nice place isn't it? I bet it's a hell lot different from the offices your use to."

Vok turned to see a man.

 

"It sure is," He told the man, "So calm, peaceful, so quiet. Just what I like after a hard day."

 

Vok's ramblings seemed to bore the man, so Vok decided to change the subject.

 

"I don't believe we've met," He told the man, "Who are you? Also, in case you don't know me, I'm Vok Onasi, Admiral of the New Republic."

[JasraLantill]

"So go ahead, tell me the truth, you stole these, and you're probably taking them to some phat cat?" he said this smiling at Va'ala. "Come now, I'll take you to where you need to drop these off. Stay, relax, its my way of making up for my abrupt actions from earlier today" Ex-Zar said this looking around at the crew, so as to indicate he meant all of them.

For a moment, Va’ala merely stared suspiciously at this man called Ex-Zar, dressed in his fancy robes and his sparkling toothpaste-ad smile. Then she smiled back at him.

 

Slowly, she moved forward, passing near Krell as she walked around one of the lugjack machines. “Remember when I told him I was probably crazier than he was?” she whispered to him through clenched teeth. “I think I was wrong.”

 

“You know,” she said to Ex-Zar. “It’s not very polite to assume someone is a liar when you’ve only just met them. We, that is my crew and I, are not pirates. We prefer the term ‘independent, freelance merchants’. And we don’t steal things. We ‘re-allocate.’” She paused, realising that Ex-Zar wasn’t buying her explanation. She sighed and rolled her eyes. “Okay, fine. Sometimes, we steal things. But, only from those who can afford it.” She cleared her throat. “Usually,” she added quickly under her breath.

 

“Anyway,” she continued, “we were perfectly happy travelling under our own power until you came along. Not that I mind hitching a ride on the odd occasion, and this occasion is definitely listed as ‘odd’ in my book, but you seem rather keen for us to stay here.” Her eyes narrowed. “A little ‘too’ keen. Why? What’s in it for you and your ‘Disbanded’ if we stay here?”

[steven]

"I'm John Ranger." John's voice's got deeper and his eyes flashed It is an honor to meet you. John's voice returned to normal and his eyes flashed again "Sorry about that, that was my other half. She take's controll of my body and sometimes puts me situations I'd rather not be in in the name of the greater good... And don't ask what she is.. please, i've grown tired of explaining it."

 

"So what bring's an admiral of your standards to this jedi temple... nevermind, properbly classifed..."John asked.

[ForceFightWMe12]

"Jethro! Kyla!"

 

Luke Skywalker strode down the corridor, his arms folded behind his back. His expression was unreadable, though the stiffness in his eyes and voice suggested that something was bothering him. He proceeded closer to te Knight and his Padawan, speaking as he went.

 

"I need the two of you to come with me -- I have a mission for you."

 

Without awaiting a response, the Master turned down another hallway and motioned the two of them to follow him. Luke stopped a girl in the hallway as she passed, telling her that there was someone from the Republic in the Temple that had been waiting to speak with him and a merchant who was still waiting in her ship for an assignment. As the student hurried away, Luke silently led the brother and sister team into an audience chamber.

((Hey FFWM, was thinking that maybe Sara and Kat might have met once or twice before... given they're in identical or similar lines of work. If possible, ya think we may run into one another... or have you even landed yet? If you have, Kat's kinda wandering about now... not sure how intelligent that is, given Eagle's personality ))

"No problem, I can tell you," Vok told John, though he wasn't sure about his "other half", "I don't know what my mission is, but Mon Mothma has sent me to speak with Master Skywalker."

[Master_Archon]

“Anyway,” she continued, “we were perfectly happy travelling under our own power until you came along. Not that I mind hitching a ride on the odd occasion, and this occasion is definitely listed as ‘odd’ in my book, but you seem rather keen for us to stay here.” Her eyes narrowed. “A little ‘too’ keen. Why? What’s in it for you and your ‘Disbanded’ if we stay here?”

 

Ex-Zar just stood and stared at Va'ala, this woman was smart, a little smarter than what Ex-Zar liked, but he quickly put that aside. He wasn't one to judge, and he wouldn't start now. "I'll tell you what's in it for us; one, we get rid of some pirate menace, which have been cutting our food and water supply, no offense intended. Two, we get the aid of those who can get us much needed supplies. Three, we have a reason to leave this section of the galaxy. See, my men are getting a little bored of this sector, our famalies are safe do to the neutral stances of the planets they live on. But my men need action, they want some new scenery. You are their, and my, hope of seeing more of the galaxy, and getting a little more action" at this Ex-Zar paused to see if Va'ala was following, then continued.

 

"Besides, we're pirates in our own sense, we no longer follow under the Imperial Remnants flag, we despise the Sith, the Jedi aren't fans of us, and the Republic, well they're too busy to care. Now I say to you, to think on this, wouldn't a fleet of 10 Imperial vessels, with the best of modern technology, drastically change the scale in which you do your job? Wouldn't you like to have this fleet as one of your assets, if you get into serious trouble and you're being chased by a fleet of ships, wouldn't your own fleet come in handy? Now I'm not giving you my fleet, no, but I am offering you a chance to have us on immediate call for any situation. Think about it, you could start your own proffesional piracy ring, your own company of sorts, that you would run, with me of course. If not, then fine, we'll just drop you off where you need to go, you'll never see us again, never have this aportunity again, and you'll be stuck doing small jobs" he said this trying to get through to her through her pride.

 

"'BLINK', SARFAS, GET UP HERE!" Ex-Zar yelled down the ramp to his Boarding Captain, and some other unknown individual.

 

Up the ramp came two people, one a, Dark Trooper Infantry, Sarfas. The second was a Swamp Trooper, a girl, around 18, her helmet was off and her red hair was braided in the back. This was 'Blink', she was a Zabrak, and had a very young, and innocent face. "This is Sarfas, my Boarding Captain" Ex-Zar said introducing Sarfas, Sarfas in turn just nodded at Va'ala. He stared at her from under his helmet, not saying a word, not looking at anyone else. "This lovely young lady is Destiny, but we just call her 'Blink'. Oh, yeah, before I forget to mention, she's my daughter also" said Ex-Zar introducing the young Zabrak. "Hello, nice to meet you!" she said smiling, and waving hello at everyone. "I called them to introduce you to them, they'll be your guides around the ship, incase you wish to stay. If not, then they're going to be the ones to escort you out of the system in their own fighters" said Ex-Zar.

[steven]

"Well I've heard there's quite a que so you'll be waiting awhile..." John paused "The old man has grown pretty popular nower days."

[Diego Varen]

"Well I've heard there's quite a que so you'll be waiting awhile..." John paused "The old man has grown pretty popular nower days."

 

"True," Vok admited, "Jedi have never been the free types have they? I suppose you of all people know that. I'm lucky. I get my free days off."

[ForceFightWMe12]

((That would be great...though how to do it...o.O You on MSN?))

[TheExile_Hunter]

"Jethro! Kyla!"

 

Luke Skywalker strode down the corridor, his arms folded behind his back. His expression was unreadable, though the stiffness in his eyes and voice suggested that something was bothering him. He proceeded closer to the Knight and his Padawan, speaking as he went.

 

"I need the two of you to come with me -- I have a mission for you."

 

Without awaiting a response, the Master turned down another hallway and motioned the two of them to follow him. Luke stopped a girl in the hallway as she passed, telling her that there was someone from the Republic in the Temple that had been waiting to speak with him and a merchant who was still waiting in her ship for an assignment. As the student hurried away, Luke silently led the brother and sister team into an audience chamber.

 

When Master Skywalker turned down a hallway, the siblings faced each other, both raising an eyebrow. "Seems like our duel will have to wait for the moment." Jethro said softly.

 

“Oh well” Kyla sighed. “The both of us duelling within the hour seemed to good to be true anyway.” They quickly caught up with Master Skywalker, wondering what mission they would be send on. After the Jedi Master talked to a fellow student, they entered an audience room.

 

“What mission do you have in mind Master?” Jethro said. Training Kyla took most of Jethro's time and the last time he was on a mission was quite a while back. Hopefully the mission would be a good distraction for the both of them.

[Jason Skywalker]

Kyle noticed Luke taking Jethro and Kyle somewhere and decided to follow him. When they reached the Audience Chamber, he decided to let himself known.

 

"You probably have already felt me, but. Anyways, you're taking the kids nowhere famous? Or in a mission?" Kyle asked him.

 

Meanwhile, near the waterfall...

 

"Just to warn you, i won't take you softly because you're a woman," Zhane told her, spinning and swinging.

[ForceFightWMe12]

"The two of you haven't been away from the Academy for a while..." Luke said distractedly as he strode to a console in the center of the room, and pressed a few buttons. "I figured this would be a good chance for the two of you."

 

A beep eminated from the console, and a tray slid out. In the tray was a small disk, which Luke took out and slipped into a case that he pulled from his robes. Securing the flap on it, he turned to the two Jedi. Holding the disk out to him, he said, "This is an important disk. It is imparitive that it reaches the fleet's outpost on Naboo as soon as possible. If you can deliver it to Leuitenant Lan there within the day, it would be for the best. A transport is already awaiting you in the hangar, and its captain should be showing up momentarily -- unless you'd like to meet her halfway. Understand?"

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 

"They're waiting to leave at this time of night??" Sara mumbled as she pulled her shirt on over her tank-top, shaking the sleep from her limbs.

 

"Well...that's what the runner said." Deib answered, scratching the back of his head. "Apparently the Jedi will explain the mission when you meet them. They're waiting in the audience chamber."

 

Sara sighed. "Alright. Looks like we're carting more than one...get the ship ready to leave, will you Deib?"

 

A few moments later, the captain was stepping from her ship, pulling her hair back into a ponytail as she did, having found it too unruly to leave it down.

[Jason Skywalker]

"So Luke, you got anything for me?" Kyle asked him. He didn't like waiting around doing nothing. Or worse, something. Something boring that is.

[TheExile_Hunter]

Jethro accepted the case holding the disk. "I understand Master, we'll leave for Naboo at once." he replied bowing.

 

He turned towards Kyla and moved his hand, suggesting that they should leave the room. After noticing his gesture, she walked out of the room, with Jethro following her. When they were standing in the hallway, Kyla turned around and faced her brother. "Jethro, you promised we would duel as soon as possible." she moaned.

 

"I know Kyla, we'll duel soon enough just like I promised, but Master Skywalker's missions are more important." he answered. "You know that."

 

"Fine, but if we have a free moment during our mission......"

 

"Then we'll practise duelling." Jethro reassured her, laying his hand on her shoulder. "Now, let's head for the hangar and meet the captain, we should leave at once." Kyla nodded in agreement and they set off towards the hangar bay.

[Writer]

Finding nothing that held her interest, Kat turned to go back to the hangar, where Eagle was sure to be waiting impatiently. As she entered the hangar, she nearly ran into somebody else who was leaving it and barely managed to avoid doing so by giving the other woman a slight telekinetic shove and taking a step backward.

 

"Doesn't anybody watch where they're..." she began angrily. Then, she saw who it was she'd nearly run into. "Sara? Sara Klint?" A grin spread over her face. "My goodness! I haven't seen you in quite some time. How's the time been treating you?"

[Dark_Lady]

Meanwhile, near the waterfall...

 

"Just to warn you, i won't take you softly because you're a woman," Zhane told her, spinning and swinging.

 

"No problem," answered Jakyl. "I despise being underrated." She whirled her lightsaber around her head in a salute and struck a defensive pose.

[ForceFightWMe12]

((When did Kyle show up? o.O ))

"Hey, Kat," Sara answered, steadying herself and grinning widely, "It's been pretty good...not exactly living in a penthouse on Courescant, but comfortable enough. I've got a pretty good contract here with the Jedi...speaking of which I'm supposed to be scooping up a few more of the Jedi kiddies in a few minutes...how've things been going for you?"
