The New Jedi Order: Empire Rising

[RobQel-Droma]

(((Lol, sorry guys. I'll join back in soon.)))

[KotO[REvan]]

((two months and not a reply, RobQel? it makes me want to stop))

[SkywalkerRules]

((Don't worry, KotO[REvan]. He'll show up... I hope.))

 

Aluna kept her eyes closed. "Wonder what Master Iséa is up to. Well, whatever it is... it's probably his business."

 

The young woman continued to meditate. As Roy said, 'Think before acting.' But what if she made a mistake again? This worried Aluna greatly.

 

She tried her very best to focus on meditating, without worries.

Two days have passed since Ship 22's departure. The whole time Roy has been sitting in the center of his room, staring blankly at the grayish locker. For many hours he would do this, then he'd get up and walk around. After such, he would sit back down and repeat the process.

 

Suddenly a silent siren flashed all over the ship, the destination is nearby.

 

"We're here."

 

"I have some business to take care of with Mr. Ilen. You are free to do as you please, Aluna. Meet back here in four days."

 

Roy quickly exited his ship, and in a few moments was out of site, hidden behind the gigantic trees.

 

((Planet: ORIONA. Covered in trees, the planet is one gigantic forest. Records show that there are few underground cities, close to the core of the planet. The entire planet is being held together solely by the force.))

 

"It is my mission to find Mr. Ilen. I find it unlikely you'll find anyone living out in these forests. The safest bet for me is to find the underground city. I'll meet back with you in four days."

[SkywalkerRules]

Aluna sat up, worringly, after what her master had said. What was she to do in four days?

 

"But... but Master! What should I do? Can't I come with you?!" The young woman wanted to prove herself loyal to Roy. But if something happened to him... who knew what would happen to her.

 

Aluna glanced down, on the floor, waiting for Roy's answer.

[KotO[REvan]]

Roy felt Aluna's call, and looked back at the distant Ship 22. He stared at the cockpit window, seeing if Aluna was in sight. After a few moments of hesitation, he finally replied.

 

"... You'll only get in the way..." And he continued walking, without another word.

[SkywalkerRules]

The response that Roy made had Aluna feel bad. "... You'll only get in the way..."

 

After their conversation, Aluna ran to the cockpit, just in time to see Roy go into the forest. If something happened to him, would there be any chance for her to take his place?

 

Questions haunted her mind, as she sat down in the co-pilot seat. If Roy thought of her as weak... then she knew she was a total failure in his eyes.

 

Suddenly, the thought of her family came across her mind. Aluna began to hologram her old home of Corellia.

[RobQel-Droma]

"Come on," Seren protested. "At least we can try and help. I don't believe that any Jedi have been sent there."

 

Jaden shook his head. "Our orders were very clear."

 

"Well...." Seren paused. "At least we could go and 'observe'...."

 

Jaden said, "If you would have listened instead of complaining, I would have told you that that was what I planned to do. Since we don't have anything better to do."

 

"....Oh...."

 

And, ten minutes later, a two-seater x-wing was lifting off toward Rodia.

 

(((Yes, I've come back. The only problem is that this will soon turn into a very lonely RP - Rogue Warrior is apparently banned, and that only leaves you two and me. )))

[SkywalkerRules]

((Oh, that's all right, RobQel-Droma. We'll get through... somehow. ))

 

Aluna began to hologram her home. "Mother? Father? Are you there?" Suddenly, an image of a woman appeared.

 

"Aluna? Sweetheart? Is that you?" The woman asked.

 

The young woman smiled. "Hello, mom." The woman, named Lilia, smiled tearfully at her daughter. "Aluna! I knew it was you. How are you?"

 

"Not so good. Mother? Do you think... being a Dark Jedi was the right choice?"

 

Lilia glanced down. Then she looked back up at Aluna. "Sweetie, whatever your heart tells you... you follow it. But if you're having up's and downs of being what you are... leave it. That's what I'd do."

 

Her mother's advice always gave the young woman confidence. "Thank you, mother. Oh! Tell the others hi for me. I really miss you guys."

 

"We miss you too. And remember... we always love you. And make the right choice." And with that, the hologram shut off.

 

Aluna thought about it. Was being a Dark Jedi worth it? This was a hard question. After all that Roy had done for her... should she give up on him?

 

The young woman got up, went out of the ship, and began to look for Roy. Disobeying orders were wrong... but she wanted to make sure that her Master was safe.
