Timetripper (Closed RP)

[Rama Sha]

:: The Star Phoenix exits hyperspace far out in the uncarted space. He looks down at the moniter which was flashing wildly. Rama had a recived a royal distress call and since all his suriving members of his family were accounted for this was most odd. ::


R6 give me a read out on the planets atmosphere.


:: Soon the screen in front of Rama jumps to life. ::


Eh........a Ice world, I hate the cold. But it has a Class M atmosphere....so whoever sent this could still be alive.


:: Rama press the the nose of the ship down and the phoenix dives towards the planet. ::

[Rama Sha]

:: the ship drops below the thick cloud cover and begins to skim the surface. ::


R6 scan for anyships.


:: R6 lets out a few beeps and whistles. ::


Where at?



:: R6 beeps again ::


Adjusting course...


:: Rama presses a few buttons and the ship turns ::

ETA 12 mins.

[Rama Sha]

:: The Phoenix approaches a half buried ship. ::


Nah......


:: Rama squints at the ship on his scope ::


R6 identify ship


Vanguard Ae-3 Scout ship
No desgination


Thats odd......

:: The Phoenix sets down next to the ship and the boarding ramp opens. Rama steps out, and cold wind catches him as he steps out. Rama moves over to the ship, the outside has several Modifactions. ::

Never seen anything like this on a ship before.

:: Rama wipes some snow from off the ship, to reveal a few letters ::


"St....


:: He wipes more away ::

"Star P...."


:: he wipes more of the snow away. ::


No.......that can't be.


"Star Phoenix"

[Rama Sha]

Ok.....Im officaly werided out!


:: Rama moves over to the boarding ramp ::


Damn.....it's buried.


:: Rama climbs on top of the ship and looks in through the window. Rama can see a form sitting in the pilots seat. ::


Well looks like this is the only way in.....

:: Rama kicks the glass out and then jumps down into the ship. He quickly looks around. ::

This ship is exaclty like the Phoenix....down to the last detail.

:: Rama turns the pilot chair around.....Sitting in the chair is a younf red headed girl with snow white skin. She seemed so familar to him. Rama checks her pluse. ::


Still alive.......


:: Rama reaches back and pulls out some smelling sailts, and cracks and runs it under her nose. ::


Come on.......wake up.

[Sierra Sha]

Her nose twitches to this foul smelling odor under her nose and she groans. She feels so stiff and hurts all over. She pushes away whatever it is that smells awful and rolls her head around to the side. Her eyes flutter open and she sees an oh so familiar face and her eyes light up in amazement. "I can't believe it! It worked just like you said it would!"

She tries getting up but the dizziness takes hold and she falls back down in the pilot's chair.

[Rama Sha]

Worked? What worked?

[Sierra Sha]

She breathes deeply, "Well, it's kinda complicated but you always told me to be honest. Okay...first of all I bet you are wondering how I knew that Royal code right?

Well...ah forget it. Better to be blunt. My name is Sierra. Sierra Sha..."

[Rama Sha]

Sha? What do you mean Sha?

[Sierra Sha]

She sits up straighter and takes Rama's hands in her own, "Sha as in the Sha family. Specifically your family in the future. I'm yours and Nuri's daughter..."

[Rama Sha]

No........that can't be........your grown....and we were gonna name you Kali.....your not my daughter.

[Sierra Sha]

"No, Kali was born. I'm your second daughter. Damn...how can I make you believe me." Her eyes light up, "Besides the obvious looks, you can read my mind. I'll let my blocks down so you can see that I'm not lying. You have to believe me, otherwise the reason that I'm here will be for nothing!"

[Rama Sha]

Alright........



:: Rama begins to scan the young girl. He sees images of familar ppl and places but some how different. Visons of death and of new life. ::


:: Rama snaps outta of it suddenly ::


Ok......Start talking.

[Sierra Sha]

She rubs her shoulders and takes a deep breath, the cold evident as she exhales, "Maybe we can go somewhere else to talk, so we don't freeze to death out here?"

[Rama Sha]

Alright.....but we have to go through the window.

:: points ::


Oh by the way.....what is the name of this ship?

[Sierra Sha]

She nods and unbuckles her belt to the chair, "Okay."

She climbs up on the console and is careful to not get cut by the broken window, "The name of the ship is the Star Phoenix. You should know, it's the same ship as you have, well, should have. You do have it right?"

[Rama Sha]

Yeah....



No,......this is isn't the Phoenix. The Phoenix outside this can't be the Phoenix.

[Sierra Sha]

She pokes her head out of hole and her face gets hit by the cold. "Gah...this truly blows!" She climbs out completely and sticks her head back in, "Look Da...Rama. I'm from the future and so is this ship. This is the Phoenix of the future. My mission is very important and you have to try and believe me!"

She looks at Rama and isn't sure if he is buying what she is saying, hell, she wouldn't either.

[Rama Sha]

Well my little mind prob of you....


:: Rama lifts himself out of the ship ::


Spark my intrest engough to help you, but not to accept that you were my daughter without some kind of proof.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra slid down the hull of "The Phoenix" and she falls into about two feet of snow, "Man ... why in the moons Mantell did you ever decide to put the base here."

She looks up at Rama standing on the hull and sighs, "So, you want proof?" She unclips a bracelet and holds it out for him to see, "Remember this?"

[Rama Sha]

Base? I didn't put a base here......there isn't anything here.

:: Rama slides down too. He walks over and takes the braclet from her hands. ::



Were did you get this?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra smiles proudly, "My mother, Nuri, gave it to me. It's the Eye of Ord Mantell."

[Rama Sha]

I know what it is.


But that doesn't make sense.......she is still wearing this.

[Sierra Sha]

She sighs and starts to get frustrated, "Look, there is no way that I could possible have that right? Well, you need to start coping with the facts. I am your daughter from the future. You sent me back to warn you and the other Sith that a possible war is brewing on the horizon. That," she points to the Eye, "is something that my Mother gave to on my 16th birthday as is tradition with the second born child! What else could I possible say or do to prove that I'm your daughter?"

[Rama Sha]

:: Looks down at the Braclet ::



Well you got the spefics right......








Why would I send you and not come myself?

[Sierra Sha]

She grows more and more impatient with each moment as this is taking too long. She needs to get to the TSE base so she can complete her mission, "The base was under attack and my memory is a blur to what was going on. A lot of the Sith were killed. You planned on going yourself but you had to stay behind and defend the base. So, you put me in the ship and sent me back to the past. I just hope that I can prevent what ever triggered the war so that my family and friends can live."

[Rama Sha]

Alright.....


:: Rama walks toward the ship. ::


You have put doubt in my mind.....you might be my daughter. I'll take you back to Monto Curdo with me ,and there we can find out for sure.

[Sierra Sha]

She takes a deep breath and sighs in relief, "Finally. So, how is going to the TSE base going to prove that I'm your daughter?"

They begin walking towards "The Star Phoenix" of the present as Sierra rubs her arms, trying to keep warm.

[Rama Sha]

Well......a simple blood test well give me a all the proof I need.


:: Rama presses a botton and the boarding ramp lowers. ::

After you......

[Sierra Sha]

She nods her agreement and chuckles, "You're polite. Thank you, Da ... Rama." She walks into the ship and heads right for the c0ckpit, sitting down and buckling in the co-pilot's seat. Rama can tell that she is really jittery and wants to get going.

[Rama Sha]

Sierra..........I like that name.


:: Rama boards and goes down to the pilots seat. ::



Ok......Lets get this show on the road. R6.....


:: The Droid whistles ::


Powerup the engines..


:: Rama hits a few buttons as the roar of the engines warming up can be heard. ::


So, Sierra......How did everyone die?

[Sierra Sha]

She turns around to watch the little droid plug into the main computer and hears the engines roar to life, "Well, it's rather long and complicated. The short version is that there was a huge civil war with the Sith. The Dark Axis failed, Rama."

She leans back in the chair and can sees all her friends dying before her eyes, "Since the Sith were so weakened, it was easy for the Jedi to bring their so called peace to the galaxy by moving in on what was left ... of The Empire." She closes her eyes and tries to regain her composure as her voice cracked with saying those last few words.

[Rama Sha]

Hmmmm......Why were the Sith so weak?

:: Rama punchs in a few keys into the nav computer. ::

[Sierra Sha]

She opens her eyes and just stares out into the white nothingness in front of her, "They were weak, because most of them were dead. Killed by one another for power instead of working together like they should have."

Her head turns to look at Rama, "In fighting made the Sith weak."

[Rama Sha]

Are you trying to tell me that Sith Killed Sith?

[Sierra Sha]

Ashamed of the truth, all she can do is shake her head yes.

[Rama Sha]

.............I don't understand?



How did that happen? We have fiannaly Achived Unity between all Sith.

[Sierra Sha]

"This isn't easy for me to go over, but I must." She takes a deep breath and continues, "It all started because Kali was to marry a member of the Rogue Sith Order to help bring an even lasting peace to the Sith. Before that could happen, she was ... she was murdered. The Imperials were worried about the strength of the Sith and killed her! Those bastards blamed it on the Rogues and that started all the death and destruction."

She pounds the side of her chair in anger, "They reep everything that we accomplished and watched ourselves murder our own kind, letting the Jedi even finish their work!!!"

[Rama Sha]

Kali............Murdered?


:: Rama is shaken ::

[Sierra Sha]

She hears Rama speak and can her in his voice how upset he is, "I ... I didn't mean to be so blunt, but ... you have to know everything. So, we can prevent it."

Sierra leans over and places a hand ontop of Rama's, "Dad, you have to pull it together so we can protect her."

[Rama Sha]

Yeah.....well.........Whose to say your right?


:: Rama goes back to working on the nav comp, trying to act like that didn't bother him. ::


Str......Strap yourself in.


:: The Phoenix jerks and then lifts off the ground. ::

[Sierra Sha]

"That's why I'm here, to make it alright."

She looks down at her seat, "I'm, already strapped in. Are you okay enough to fly? I can do it if you want?"

[Rama Sha]

Im not gonna let you fly my ship! This ship has lots of Modifactions that I did myself......I doubt you could fly it.


:: The Phoenix breaks out of the planets atmosphere. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Crosses her arms and stares defiantely across at Rama, "Yeah well, I bet I could. You're just too afraid to find out that I'm wrong. Why's that? Because it be more proof that I am your daughter."

[Rama Sha]

Alright.......


:: The Phoenix breaks orbit. ::



Take us into hyperspace.


:: rama unstraps and begins to get outta his chair. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra's eyes light up and unbuckles her belt and quickly gets out of the chair, "Alright! Knew which button to push. Heh ..."

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama Gets up. ::


Yay! You can unbuckle your belt......you sure know this ship.



Have a seat.


:: Rama motions to the chair. ::

[Sierra Sha]

"Hmrph!" Sierra walks past Rama and sits in the pilot's chair, already going through some diagnostic checks to make sure everything is fine. She straps herself in and with a grin, takes control of "The Star Phoenix".

Punching up some coordinates, she sets the Nav computer for the current location of the TSE base. As soon as the computer is set, she hits the switch and the stars turn into streaks of light as they enter hyperspace.

Turns and gives Rama a look of "I told you so".

[Rama Sha]

Yeah you punched a button.....you could just know how the Vanguard Ae-3 is set up......still doesn't prove anything.

[Sierra Sha]

She keys in a few buttons and makes sure everything is alright before turning to Rama. "Well, since when does a Vanguard have an astromech droid plug?" She moitons behind her with a thumb.

"Also, I don't think many of these ships have probes either." She points to the exact switch and panel that would control them.

[Rama Sha]

Lucky Guess......Only thing that proves is that you have been on a Vanguard before.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra gets a small glimmer of ammusment in her eye and reaches below the console, "Yes, I have been on a Vanguard before. Um, like the one you found me in infact. But, y'know..." She hits a panel and it pops open revealing a secret stash of weaponry. "...this panel was put here by you to hide somethings incase, well y'know."

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama moves over a closes the panel quickly ::



Ok so you did your homework on me......still doesn't prove anything.

[Sierra Sha]

She rolls her eyes and returns back to monitoring the console during their trip through hyperspace. She mumbles under her breath, "A pain in the ass like always ..."

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama sits down in the copilots chair and turns away from Sierra so she cant see what he is doing. He slides the braclet, that he has purposely kept, into a scanner. He then presses a few buttons and it begins to scan ::

[Sierra Sha]

:: Sierra sits back and relaxes in the pilot's chair, well aware that Captain Obvious is up to something but pretends that nothing is wrong ::

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama punches a few buttons ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra can't stand these uncomfortable silence's and this is a good time to talk to Rama she guesses. She clears her throat, "So um ... who's in The Empire right now? I'm just curious to know so I don't have that big of a shock to see certain people."

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama looks over his shoulder ::


: Rama thinks his response threw, and decides to try to prove Sierra a fraud. ::


Why don't you tell me who is still in the Empire in your time and I'll tell you if they are there now.

[Sierra Sha]

"Well, obviously you're alive, otherwise how the hell did I get here. There wasn't a lot of Sith left to defend the base when it was being overrunned. Ayanami, Rain, Summoner, Aunt Alisa and .... Sith Kat were there." She hisses out Kat's name with displeasure and has to take a moment to compose herself before she can continue.

[Rama Sha]

Ok.......For some reason I get the feeling you don't like Kat very much.

[Sierra Sha]

She turns her head and Rama can see the hate in her eyes for the person that holds that name. "Yes," she hisses once more, "You're correct about that." She turns her head back to look out the viewport with disdain.

[Rama Sha]

Any Paticular reason?

[Sierra Sha]

"Yeah ... there is. So you going to tell me who is alive in this time or what?"

[Rama Sha]

Depends..

[Sierra Sha]

"You know, the father that I know is more open about how he feels and thinks." Sierra turns and stares into Rama's eyes, "Why don't you try and do that for a change."

[Rama Sha]

Because.......



Now why don't you tell me why you don't like kat.......and I'll tell you who is still alive.

[Sierra Sha]

Sighs and rolls her tongue in her mouth, "Fine. I don't like her because she provokes too much conflict between the Sith. She wasn't the cause of the damn war but she started the sparks."

[Rama Sha]

Alright..........fair enough.


Well lets See......Ogre, Dia, Dale, Kat, Nuriko.....


Wait you know what, this well be faster.


:: Rama presses a few buttons and a list pops up on the screen in front of her ::


Thats a complete list of the current members of the Sith Empire.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra stares blankly at the screen, not believing what her ears have told her. All these names don't matter to her, only one that Rama spoke does, "Ma ... Mother is alive?"

[Rama Sha]

What are you talking about?

[Sierra Sha]

She drops her head and can't look Rama in the eye, "Mother ..." She chokes up and forces herself to speak. " ... she, she died. In the war ... I watched her die ... My fault ..." She puts a hand to her forehead and can't continue.

[Rama Sha]

Died? Your Fault?




I don't understand.

[Sierra Sha]

She takes a deep breath and pushes away the image of her mother dying. The image of Trace snapping her mother's back in two with a heavy boot brings her back to reality. "Forget it ... I don't want to talk about it anymore."

[Rama Sha]

No...........your gonna tell me.

[Sierra Sha]

"What does it matter? You don't believe me. Everything that I say isn't true. Right?"

[Rama Sha]

Becuase if you are telling the truth then my wife is dead and that is my concern.



:: Rama jumps up and turns Sierra's Chair to face him and slmas his hands down on the handrests. ::



So your gonna tell me right now.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra shows no fear to Rama's outburst. She smiles inwardly since this is more of the father she knew and that gives her strength. "Fine, you deserve the truth. It was during an earlier battle and it was led by Trace." She gets louder in her speech and her eyes narrow in hatred. Hatred for her Uncle and herself for failing. "I tried to protect my mother as best I could, but we were overrunned. Trace planned the whole thing and killed Mother!"

[Rama Sha]

Are you saying that Trace killed Nuriko?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra nods, "Yes. He became jealous of your position and left TSE. He left to do his own thing and came back to take over."

[Rama Sha]

Geez.....I seem to be cursed in that facet.

[Sierra Sha]

"Cursed?" Sierra looks confused to that statement.

[Rama Sha]

Not the first time something like that has happened. But by my own brother....

[Sierra Sha]

She bites her lower lip is frustration, "I'm sorry Rama, but where I come from things are horrible ..."

[Rama Sha]

Well what do you suggest I do........kill my brother for something he is gonna do.

[Sierra Sha]

Shakes her head, "NO! Of course not. I'm here to make sure it nevers gets to that point. As long as I'm successfull, there will be no future like the one I know ..."

[Rama Sha]

What if you fail?

[Sierra Sha]

"I won't. It's that simple. I know what needs to be done and if I have to die to do it, then so be it. I will NOT have the future become a living Hell!"

[Rama Sha]

Well you might not like what you have.....



:: Suddenly a alarm goes off insode the ship. ::


What the hell........

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra looks down at the console and her eyes widen, "What the ... We're exiting hyperspace???" The stars turn back into little specks of light in space and the "Star Phoenix" jerks violently as it hits normal space.

She tries all she can to try and bring the ship under her command, "I'm sure I'll get it under control, but we're loosing fuel at a rapid rate. What the hell happened?"

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama jumps back into his seat and starts to punch buttons ::


Uhhhhhhh Looks like an explosion in the liquid fuel tank. It tore through the Hyperdrive control regulators.


:: Rama quickly takes the braclet out of the scanner and throws it back to Sierra ::


here......

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra turns to grab the braclet and puts it on quickly. Turning back to the console she swears, "Damnit! I can only get the ship to steer so much! We need to make a landing and fast!"

[Rama Sha]

Well Im open to sugestions....Im having real trouble regulating the the remaining fuel outta the tank......we are venting like crazy. Your gonna land this thing you better do it fast. In about 10 mins we won't have enough fuel to make orbit.

[Sierra Sha]

As Sierra looked out the viewport, she saw a planet that might be close enough to crash land on. "Scan that planet up ahead and see if we can actually survive down there. Crashing on a plant when we can't breathe the atmosphere is not my idea of a good time."

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama presses a few buttons ::


Class M........Forrest palnet.....

looks like we can surive down there, can't get a surface scan......so I don't ask if there are people down there.......or for a flat place to land. Cause I can't help you.



8 mins........better do something quick or were just another piece of mass shadow waiting to get smashed.

[Sierra Sha]

She nods, "Ackowledged. Good to know we can breathe. Now we need to survive the landing." She hits the engines for full speed and flies right towards the planet.

"Um ... if you haven't buckled in, I suggest you do."

[Rama Sha]

Hey, the way you have been flying I have kept it buckled.

[Sierra Sha]

She chuckles, "Well, you have no one to blame but yourself for my flying. Your the one that taught me everything that I know."

Sierra takes a deep breath and the hull begins to get warmer and warmer. Sweat starts to form on her brow as "The Star Phoenix" breaks into the planet's atmosphere. "Hold on, looks like impact is about 60 seconds."

[Rama Sha]

Try to put her down easy huh.

[Sierra Sha]

"I'm going to try my best. This ships means a lot to me as it does you." With that, the nose of "The Star Phoenix" breaks through the treeline and the whole ship shakes from the engines finally cutting off. The branches and leaves break off as the hit the viewport and the ground is coming up fast.

Sierra grits her teeth and holds the controls as best she can, waiting for the inevitable impact...

[Rama Sha]

:: The Ships hits hard and skips back air born for a few seconds then slams back down onto the grouns and begins to slide hitting trees as it slides. The Phoenix's left engine pod slams into a tree breaking the pod off. The Ships contiunes on course, showing no signs of slowing. ::



Hold on..........



:: Rama slams his fist down onto a button on his consual. Two grappling hooks fire outta the back of the Phoenix and skid along the ground behind the ship, untill one of them grips into a large tree. the Phoenix jerks to a sudden stop. Rama flies forward, breaking his seatbelt and throwing him up and over the railing and down to the pilot's niche. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra watches as she looses control of the ship as it slams down on the ground and gets skidding with not signs of stopping. She looks over to what Rama meant and hears the sounds of something firing off.

All of a sudden, she lurches forward and smacks her head on the console. Her eyes flutter and she fights to remain conscious but her body is still to worn from the crash before and she fades into unconsciouness.

[Rama Sha]

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW God...

:: Rama rubs his head as he starts to pick himself up ::



Hey kid, you ok?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra lays motionless in the pilot's chair. Rama can tell that she is breathing but there is a big gash on her forehead which is bleeding quite profusely.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama Pulls her outta the chair and lays her on the floor. He reachs up to a panel and opens it, taking out a first aid kit and takes out some bandages and begins to wrap her head. ::


Come on......Wake up kid.

[Sierra Sha]

Rama can see her eyes moving underneath her eyelids but Sierra remains unconscious. Fortunately, he is able to stop the bleeding.

[Rama Sha]

Alright....Gonna have to wake your up.


:: Rama cracks a small pack and runs it under Sierra's nose. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra's eyes snap open and she sits up, huggin Rama as everything is a sea of colors from her dizziness, "Uuuhhhh ..."

[Rama Sha]

Hey......You ok?

[Sierra Sha]

She holds Rama tigher and groans again, "Uh, yeah Pop. I think I'll be alright. What happened?"

[Rama Sha]

Well you got us down.....

[Sierra Sha]

"I did?" Pushes away rather embarrassed to hugging Rama, "You know where we are then?"

[Rama Sha]

Not yet......Gotta get the comp back online.


:: Rama stand up and moves over to the computer. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra widens her eyes to try and push the dizziness away. She rolls her shoulders and decides to get up to help Rama. As soon as she tries, the whole scene spins around and Sierra feels like she is going to vomit with how bad the veritgo is.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama looks over his shoulder ::


Hey......you better sit down.


:: Rama helps her back into the seat ::


I can get the comp up on my own.......I'll get R6 to help.......



OH R6!!!


:: Rama walks over to the Astromech plug....and piece of celeing panel has fallen over R6. Rama picks it up and throws it to the side. He exaimes the droid. ::


You ok?

:: R6 turns his head and lets out several beeps. ::


Good..............now get out here and help me.

:: R6 lets out a line of loud mean sounding beeps. the the drois begins to lift outta the plug in ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra sits down with a groan and looks at Rama, wishing that she could help. Rama gives her a look and Sierra knows it well. She isn't going anywhere but sitting in this seat. Sierra bites her lower lip in frustration and watches the little droid get to work on finding out where they crash landed.

Looking out the viewport, all Sierra can figure out is that they ended up on some heavily forested planet.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama slides under the pilots consuel, and looks around ::


Uhhhhhhhhh R6, run a diagnostic on the the main nav power input.



:: the little droid uses one of his tools to test one of the power input. Suddenly sparks fly oout from where Rama is working ::


OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!



:: Rama slide out and stickes his finger in his mouth. ::


I think I found the problem.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra rolls her head over slowly to look down at Rama, "You mean besides the problem with your finger now?" She gives a half smile.

[Rama Sha]

Yeah besides that.

:: Slides back under. ::


Smart ass.....



R6 turn the power off, so I can splice these wires.


;: the Droid complies ::


ok......


:: Rama qucikly works on the wires ::

[Sierra Sha]

Her half smile turns into a frown, "Well? Are you gonna tell me the problem, or make me just sit here?"

[Rama Sha]

The Problem is.......


:: THe computers jump to life. Rama slides out ::


A power loss to the main computer.

[Sierra Sha]

"Oh ... I see."

Sierra yawns and tries to get comfortable in the chair, "So, we are we then?"

[Rama Sha]

Well......


:: Rama sits and begins to punch keys ::



Agamar............I think.


:: the Screen jumps and begins to static out. Rama slaps the side of the screen and it jumps back to normal. ::


Yeah......Agamar. oh but I got some bad news.......Well more bad news.

[Sierra Sha]

"Agamar?" Sierra frowns, "Great ... just great. We're way out in the Outer Rim in a heavily forested planet that has nothing on it. How could there be any worse news then that?"

[Rama Sha]

Well we don't have enough power to send any long range communications......and everything local is under New Republic control. I send an SOS out.....they pick it us up...I go to prison and most likey put to death.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra swears under her breath, "Well ain't that great. So, we're stuck here unless we can repair the ship. Oh wait, we're on Agamar! Backwater planet that has absolutly nothing. Oh yeah, no worries."

[Rama Sha]

I'll make the call.....


They'll pick us up. You'll get off cause they won't even know who you are.....You can book passage back to TSE headquatrers.....and Maybe they can rescue me before they kill me.

[Sierra Sha]

"No! I came here to save my family, not be the cause of my own father's death!" Sierra stands up and is able to ignore the vertigo that is starting to set in, her strong emotional state giving her the strength. "Because of me we're stranded here. This is all my fault! DAMN!!!" She covers her face to hide the tears swelling in her eyes and curses herself. She wasn't the one to be here in the first place and now look at the mess she caused. First her mother, now her father ...

[Rama Sha]

Hey....You underestimate me. Beside you stay on this back water planet for the rest of your life you won't be able to stop anything.

[Sierra Sha]

She wipes away the few tears under her eyes, "No, I never would do that, but I'm the one that put you in jeapordy in the first place."

Sierra resigns to the possible fate of her and her father, "Yes, send out the signal. Your right."

[Rama Sha]

Alright........


:: Rama begins to try to loacte the nearest New Repbulic base.....then stops and stares at the screen. ::




Scratch that........




:: Rama point at the screen ::


Who would have thought Kessel would save my ass!

[Sierra Sha]

"Kessel?" Sierra thinks for a moment, "The spice mines? Wow, no worries about the New Republic now. Nice to know that we found a place pack full of scum.

Course, that being the case. No one there is going to rescue us except to make us slaves."

[Rama Sha]

Under normal circumstances that would be true.....but not in this case. I have some ppl on Kessel. If I can get a message to them they might be able to get us off this rock.

[Sierra Sha]

"You have people on Kessel? Since when do you deal in Spice?
Unless ... hmm." She purses her lips in thought since this
sounds familiar, but she can put her finger on it. Something
Sierra heard as a child ...

[Rama Sha]

No......Im not even that low. I have some ppl on Kessel trying
to break someone outta of the mines. I'll see if I contact them.
..............if they are still alive that is.

[Sierra Sha]

"It was a joke, Rama. I didn't think you were into those
kinda dealings." She shakes off the thought of this sounding
familiar. "Well, I highly doubt their dead. I mean, you
don't send incompetent fools to go on important missions."

[Rama Sha]

Yeah......but Im sure he has got them thinking that by now. He
is very smart like that...I thought the same thing when I first
meet him. Till I ended up missing my Landspeeder.......then I
knew he had been playing me the whole time.


<
br>
Anyways.......Im sure they'll pick us. They don't get paid
if I'm stuck on this rock.


:: Rama opens a secure
channel. ::


" This is the Star Phoenix to
the Chimera, Star Phoenix to Chimera come in."

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra goes back to sitting down since she can feel herself beginning to become dizzy again. She prays silently that Rama can get ahold of the crew he's calling and grows more impatient the longer that there isn't a response.

[Rama Sha]

Hmmmmmmmm nothing. I hope they are there......



Or else we're screwed.

[Sierra Sha]

A few more minutes pass and Sierra starts to loose hope that there will be a response. Her headturns around quickly as the comm crackles and a strange woman's voice is heard on the other end.

<"This is the Chimera. We copy you Star Phoenix. Um ... what are you doing in this neck of the woods? I thought you didn't want to be out here.">

[Rama Sha]

We need a pickup.....it's a long story.

[Rama Sha]

<"Pick up?! Um ... well, that is kinda hard see. Blue and furry hasn't gotten you know who yet, and we're kinda sitting around waiting. Is this an emergency, or can we get ya after we finish up whatcha wanted?">



Naahh.....we are ok for now. I'll give you our Cordinates. Is this Line Secure?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra listened to the conversation as best she could, but there was a lot of static on there end, "So ... we got a ride or not? Tell me we got a ride so that something good happens today."

[Rama Sha]

Well.......we have a ride for now. They arn't done with their Misson...........So if they all get killed. then there goes our ride. So we just have to sit back and see what happens.




:: Rama looks over the "trashed" interior of the Ship ::


Well.....I think I might go see if I can slavage anything fron whats left of the ship.

:: Rama gets up out of his chair and heads for the boarding ramp ::

You can come with if you like.....I mean if your still dizzy you can go lay down in the bunk........But if your feeling ok.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra gets up and heads over to Rama. She is a little weak in the knees but she knows that getting up and doing something will help her, plus ... she is getting cabin fever. "Sure I'll help you. I know this ship well and we can get the job done sooner. I wouldn't want you to miss anything that could be salvaged."

With as smirk, Sierra walks over to Rama and both of them head down the boarding ramp, "So ... you think that your people are going to make it?"

[Rama Sha]

I don't know........I sure as hell hope so.


:: Rama jump down to the gassy forrest flour since the ship had tipped slightily and the boarding ramp isn't quite touching the ground. He takes a few steps out and turns arond ::



O_o





Oh god.......

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra pokes her head out of the ship and looks to Rama, "Oh god what? I don't like the sound of that ..."

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama looks over the ship. Parts are hanging off the ship all over. Small branches are stuck in every nook and cranny of the ship. there is a trail of debris running for almost a mile behind the ship. The Right engine pod is completly missing. ::




Well any landing you can walk away from is a good one..........I guess. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":\">

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra curses as she sees the mess that was caused by her crash. "Yeah, I guess."

She kicks a piece of metal near her foot, "Damnit! I'm sorry Rama. Looks like we ain't salvaging much." :mad: She is truly mad at herself and balls her hands into a tight fist, the nails digging into her skin.

[Rama Sha]

Ehhhhhh.....


:: Rama Shrugs ::



With Kali on the way....a little ship like this isn't doing me much good. No I got a excuse to get a bigger one.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra squats down and picks up a random piece of metal and stares at it, "Kali ..." She shakes off her bad feeling and looks up at Rama with a faint smile. "A new ship? Hmm ... don't you think mo ... Nuri would get mad at you for that?"

[Rama Sha]

::Rama Shrugs ::


She really doesn't go on a lot of these missions with me.....besides I got the money.









Hey!!!!!!!


You arrived in this ship right?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra looks at the wreck, back at Rama, the wreck ... and then Rama. "Um, yeah, well. This ship is the one that I come to this time in. But ... since it's totalled, I guess that means the future might already be being changed."

She sighs, "I do hope that's a good thing."

[Rama Sha]

Might be.....


:: Rama bends down a picks up a piece of scrap. ::



......but somehow I doubt a trashed ship will stop a genocide.

[Sierra Sha]

"Well, if you get rid of this ship and not repair it then I never came back in it. There will be no ship like this for me later."

She cups her chin in thought, "This just means the future isn't set in stone now. Whether or not the Sith war is avoided ... that's another thing entirely."

[Rama Sha]

I figured as much.......



:: Rama throws the scrap down. ::



Well......I think I'll take what I can salvage, but I don't know if this ship is ever gonna see the light of day again.

[Sierra Sha]

Looks saddened at the loss, "That's too bad. I grew really attached to the ship. Well ... would've grown attached."

She starts going through the broken and twisted metal seeing if there is anything that can be saved.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama starts to pick through the rumble ::


Hey........I can use this again.


:: Rama picks up a med sized box with Wires sticking outta of it. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra really doesn't put much effort into finding things that can be salvaged. She looks up when Rama does, "Um ... and what was that? Or does it matter?"

[Rama Sha]

It's a Particle injector......



Oh damn! It's missing a hose.........

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra looks around the area that Rama found the injector and finds a hose, "This it?"

[Rama Sha]

Hey Yeah! Kick ass....


:: Rama takes the hose and puts back on the injector ::


There......



:: the hose promty falls off and back to the ground. ::


Oh.......well.......I'll fix that later.


:: Rama looks up at the sky. ::


It's gonna be getting dark soon.....

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra covers her mouth as she chuckles. She likes seeing how he was before the war since her memories of the good times are few.

She looks up and nods in agreement, seeing the sun heading closer to disappearing into the horizon, "Yeah, your right. You wanna go back in the ship? Might be better since there be some protection. Unless you wanna go camping."

[Rama Sha]

I willing to bet it gets pretty cold on this planet.....and I wouldn't suggest making a fire inside the ship.


:: Rama heads back towards the boarding ramp. ::


We should get R6 and some supplies outta the ship.....set camp outside. See If I can make some kinda shelter outta the scrap around here.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra nods and starts picking pieces of scrap that would suit for a shelter, putting them into a pile as Rama heads back to the ship.

For the bigger pieces of scrap, Sierra focuses on her hatred and lets the Dark Side flow into her. She picks up a huge piece of slag, bringing it over her head and throws in on top of the pile that is growing steadily.

[Rama Sha]

Oh Damn.......Im sorry.


:: Rama lifts a large piece of the control panel off of R6. He lets out a loud whistle. ::


I know I know.......Anything brokem?


:: The droid beeps several times and turns his head in a "No" gesture ::



Good....Now get outta there.....look like we have to send the night on this planet. Im gonna need your help.


:: Rama turns and goes to the rear of the ship and starts throwing cartons out. R6 activates his droid lift and begins to rise outta the socket. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Her head injury gets the best of her as she exerts herself. Sierra was over to the pile a little uneasu and leans on the scrap, "Man ... I guess I over did it."

She closes her eyes and breathes in deep breaths to try and regain her composure.

[Rama Sha]

:: R6 exits the Phoenix and rolls down the ramp. When he gets to the end he promtly falls off the ramp that isn't quite touching the ground. A voice comes from inside the ship ::


" oh.......R6 be carful at the end of the ramp it isn't touching the ground."

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra turns her head quickly when she heard the a metal clang. She blinks her dizziness away and heads over to the little droid and is toppled over. Sierra cannot see Rama so she lifts the droid upright and gives him the once over.

"You okay there little guy?"

The droids head swivels around and chirps and beeps are her answer.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama emerges from the ship carrying supplies...::



R6.......Get up. We don't have time for you to laying around.


:: The little droid lets out several whistles as he attemps to right himself. ::

[Sierra Sha]

She chuckles, "Well, he's alright. Just didn't see that really big step there."

Sierra starts dusting the droid after she set it upright, "I was able to pile up the best scrap that could be used as a shelter. Hope that's good enough. Not much left unless you want to tear the ship apart."

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama walks over to the young girl and the little droid. He exaims the scraps. ::


Yeah......they'll do. Not building a prement shelter just one to get us through the night.


:: Rama drops the cartons, and then opens one and reumges through it. ::


You hungry?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra smiles, happy that she pleased her father. Her stomach growls making her admit that she is hungry. "Thank you Rama. I'll think I'll take you up on that."

Walking over, she takes a seat near Rama and looks over the cartons that he has.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama looks through the cartoon and pulls out a package of unappealing looking food. ::


Sorry.....it's all I got. This is survial pack food.....Dried Bantha meat......not exactly the best stuff in the universe, but it'll keep you alive.

[Sierra Sha]

She takes the offered food and opens the package, "Considering what I've been through, this is the best meal that I've had in a long time."

Sierra starts eating the rations ravenously.

[Rama Sha]

:: Watches kinda shocked. ::


Uhhhhhhhhhh you want some water?

:: Pulls a bottle outta the container.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra smiles and takes the bottle, taking a long drink from it. She wipes her mouth with her lacerated sleeve and looks up to her father, "Thank you."

She goes back to picking at some of her food, eating slower and very unsure of herself now. Wondering if Rama and the other Sith at The Empire are going to believe who she really is.

[Rama Sha]

Iwouldn't worry about that now.....



:: Rama looks over at her ::


Oh Sorry.....I do that a lot. I don't mean to. Nuri really hates it.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra looks up at Rama, not even concerned to what he just did, "I know. You still do it alot. Always is hard to try and keep things from you."

She manages a slight smile before she takes another bite of the rations.

[Rama Sha]

I bet you didn't get away with much growing up then huh?


:: Rama grins ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sighs, "Nope, but no secrets between us was always a good thing I believe. Made for a close family I suppose."

[Rama Sha]

Really.....Well I can read Nuri's mind and she can read mind. Don't really put up any blocks. Kinda strange having a 24 hour mind link with someone, but I wouldn't pick anyone else to have one with.

[Sierra Sha]

Rama talking about Nuriko led to the inevitable memory of her mother's death. The scene played over in her mind as Trace's sabre cut into Nuriko's flesh, incinerating the heart. Sierra could do nothing but watch as she was pinned down by her Uncle's TK ability.

She threw the rations to the ground, disgusted at herself and walked over to the ship.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama throws his hands up surprised. ::


What the hell!!!!!!!!!




Hey the food was bad, but not that bad.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra leans on the broken hull of the ship, not looking at Rama, "I guess your not good at reading minds as I thought."

[Rama Sha]

I was trying to keep out after that last inccident. Trying to be polite.



I think it might be better if you just tell me.

[Sierra Sha]

"I already told you everything that I can. I just be repeating myself."

Leaps onto a folded part of the hull and then jumps to the top of the ship, "I rather just be alone till our ride gets here."

[Rama Sha]

Ok......fine.

:: Rama leans back and looks up the side of the Ship were Sierra went. He looks over at R6 ::


I don't know R6........Kinda bratty if you ask me. If she was my duaghter, she would know she isn't the only one that lost their parnets.


:: Rama looks back up again. ::

[Sierra Sha]

"Like I don't know that," she calls out from her hiding spot. "You didn't have to see your mother practically executed before your eyes when all you could do is watch, all helpless."

Sierra was thankful for the cover so Rama wouldn't have to see her upset and crying like the weakling she was right now. It wasn't only the memories that caused her to loose emotional control, it was being here, now ... in an unknown time. Everything was foreign too her. Even her own father.

Maybe it was because she was so exhausted, or maybe it was the pain of her wounds that were harder to control. Either way, the reality of the situation hit her hard and she broke down sobbing.

[Rama Sha]

Your right I didn't........it was worse. I had to watch my mother decay away....


:: Rama begins to twidles his thumbs ::


She was once a very proud woman. Normally women didn't hold much power on Ord Mantell. They just sat in the shadows and didn't talk. Just tired to produce a heir. But not my mother, she really shoke up the whole System. And then the plague hit. She was reduced to 98 pound shell of the person she once was. It took her 3 months to die.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra sniffs her nose and quiets down to listen to Rama. She was told a little of what happened but not so open like this before. She unfolds her legs and peers over the side of the piece of metal that was once attached to the hull. "Sorry, Pop. For what happened and my behavior."

[Rama Sha]

You didn't know......Not to many ppl do. Not even Nuriko.....Errrrrrrr your mother. She knows she is dead, but i never went into the details.

[Sierra Sha]

Narrows her eyes in confusion, "If you never really told anyone this, then why did you tell me?"

[Rama Sha]

:: Shrugs ::


I don't know.....You were just talking about how you mother died. Guess it just brought it up.

[Sierra Sha]

"Oh ... well, thank you for trusting me. Means alot even if it doesn't seem like it now." She winces realizing how stupid she must sound.

[Rama Sha]

Well your welcome......I think.

[Endo Freedoo]

Continued from <a href=http://pub2.ezboard.com/fswvstitanicthejedicouncil.showMessage?topicID=248 3.topic>here</a>.

:: The comm. unit crackles to life as someone speaking Rodain hails Rama. ::

This is Endo Freedoo on board the Chimera, do you read me? I am approaching your position and need to know if you still require pickup.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama hears the Comm and scrables inside the Ship. He turns up the volume, and hears Rodian over the Comm. ::


Rodian..........god, I don't speak Rodian.


:: he Pushes the comm button. ::


Um.....Hello?

[Endo Freedoo]

:: At the pilot’s seat of the Chimera, Endo looks bewildered. He doesn’t understand the language, but he does recognize the voice as being that of Sith Master Rama Sha. Still unsure if he is needed he responds. ::

Do you still require pickup?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra jumps down from the top of the ship as she watches Rama run into the cockpit. She grunts as she hits the ground and goes to peer inside to see what is going on. First of all, she is surprised to hear Rodian coming over the comm and chuckles that her father doesn't know it ... yet. But he will.

She heads inside and comes to stand by Rama, "It's Endo from The Chimera. He's ready to come and pick us up."

With a grin, she hits the comm and speaks in perfect Rodian, "Chimera? This is the Star Phoenix. We're ready when you are to come and gets us. You got an ETA?"

[Rama Sha]

Where did you learn Rodian?

[Endo Freedoo]

Message received Star Phoenix, ETA is 30 minutes, Endo out.

:: He releases the send on the comm. unit and looks back over his shoulder down the corridor. Wojo is still not looking like he is doing so well as the effects of the stim meds he got earlier are wearing off and Draven is still crumpled in a heap on the floor. Endo thinks to himself as he inputs the approach coordinates into the Nav computer. ::

”Gonna be kinda crowded in here, but at least I wont be the only one conscious any more.”

[Sierra Sha]

Turns ands looks at Rama with a smile, "You."

"Okay Chimera. See you soon. Phoenix out."

Sierra turns off the comm, "Well ... our ride will be here in thirty minutes."

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Having finished inputting the coordinates Endo looks up and sees the lush green and blue world of Agamar before him, still fairly small at this distance, but growing in size with each passing moment. He lights a cigar and looks down at the computer next to him, monitoring Tirsa’s condition. Her life signs still appear stable but her condition critical from the blaster wound. Looking back over his shoulder at the down Wojo and Draven he says quietly. ::

Gonna need more med facilities on this ship, if things like his become a common occurrence.

[Rama Sha]

Me?


Were did I learn Rodian?

[Sierra Sha]

Shrugs, "I don't know. You figured I should learn all you knew. That including Rodian."

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Twenty eight minutes later, the Chimera flies through the atmosphere of Agamar, uncloaked. Looking through the front viewport, Endo can see a trail of debris and scorched land. Then he sees the remains of the Star Phoenix. Engaging the repulsorlifts and cutting the engines, he sets the ship down in a clearing about 50 yards away from the crash site. ::

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama looks up as the Chimera begins it's descent. ::


Hey! Sierra..............rides here.

[Sierra Sha]

Her eyes light up finally, knowing that her and her father are going to leave this planet. Sierra could concentrate on her mission and getting to TSE HQ soon. Very soon.

"I guess we should go and greet them, Pop."

[Endo Freedoo]

:: The hatch opens and the boarding ramp lowers. Endo rises from his seat and maneuvers past the unconscious bodies of Wojo and Draven still lying in the corridor. He stops and checks Draven to see if he is still alive, as it is very obvious that Wojo is by the snoring noises he is making. Able to find a pulse, he stands back up and looks out the open hatch. ::

[Rama Sha]

I guess so...

:: Rama moves out away from the ship. ::


Looks like it landed over there beyond those trees.

[Sierra Sha]

Follows after Rama and sees the Sith Infiltrator coming into view. They weave in and out of the trees till they come out to the clearing just in time to see the hatch being opened and the ramp lowered.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama walks up to the SI and look in the hatch. R6 bumps into him as Rama stops ::


HEY! Watch it......


:: Rama peers in again ::


HELLO!?!?!?

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Rama sees a green face with a confused expression peering out at him. ::

Ready to go?

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra tugs on Rama's jacket, "Time to go he said."

Grins and leads him up the ramp to Endo, "Thank you for picking us up so quick."

[Rama Sha]

GAH!!!!!!


:: Rama jumps back, then hears Sierra. and watches her go up the ramp. ::



Tell him not to do that!!!!


:: Rama walks up the ramp and is followed by R6. ::

[Endo Freedoo]

He is my employer's Master, she'd have my head if I didn't help him. Who might you be?

:: Steps back out of the way so they can come on board and looks a bit concerned as he sees they are bringing a droid too. He mumbles. ::

Gonna be really crowded.

[Sierra Sha]

"Employer's Master? Well, Rama here is my father. It's a long story. Names Sierra."

Sierra heads into the ship proper, following Endo and wonders why he said something about it being crowded. Her eyes notice that a blue skinned alien and ... Wojo?! are knocked out in the corridor.

She runs to Wojo's side, "What happened?"

[Rama Sha]

Wojo.....


:: Rama walks in and look down at a face he hasn't seen in 15 years. ::


What happened to him!!!!!


Sierra! Ask him what happened to him?


:: Rama looks around and sees Draven ::

Damnit! What the hell happened on Kessel?

[Sierra Sha]

Turns to Rama, "I already did ask him!"

Hearing the name Draven, she assumed that it was the laid out blue skinned alien. Sierra wondered too what happened since everyone was in good health when they received their transmission. Also, something came to mind as she furrowed her brow. They talked to a woman on the comm, not a Rodian, "There was a woman we spoke too. Where is she?"

[Endo Freedoo]

There were a few complications getting Wojo out of the Spice mine on Kessel. Tirsa, the woman you spoke with, was hit by blaster fire and is now resting in her quarters, attached to the only medical facilities on this ship, and I’m not really sure how Draven ended up in that condition.

:: As he spoke, he pointed out the door to the personal quarters, where Tirsa was. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra glances over to where the quarters were and turned to look at Rama, "Alright. Getting Wojo off of Kessel wasn't easy." She points to where Endo showed her, "Tirsa got shot and is resting in there. "The Rodian isn't sure what is wrong with Draven or how he ended up that way."

She stands up and rubs the back of her neck in thought, thinking that this would be easier if someone knew Rodian besides her so she wouldn't have to keep translating. That ... or Rama learns the language miraculously right now.

[Rama Sha]

Well im sorry your stuck with it.



:: Rama said not turning his attention from the two on the floor. ::


So they gonna live?

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Sierra translates Rama’s question to Endo and he replies. ::

I really have no clue if they will or not, I’m no medical expert. Piloting is my game. Speaking of which, shouldn’t we get out of here?

:: He speaks to Sierra and she relays the message to Rama in Basic ::

[Rama Sha]

Well I don't think Wojo is going too.


:: he looks over at A snoring Wojo. ::


But...Draven is in much worse shape.

You got a Ship repair kit on board?

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Once again the words of the Sith Master are translated by sierra and Endo responds. ::

I don’t have a complete kit but I do have some miscellaneous tools.

[Rama Sha]

That'll do.........give them here.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra looked back between Endo and Rama. She spoke in basic then Rodian, "Is there anything that I can do to help?"

[Endo Freedoo]

:: He led Rama to the end of the corridor toward the back of he ship and opened a medium sized door, then stepped back out of the way. ::

Help yourself.

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama grabs a few tools and makes his way back to Draven. ::

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Closes the doors of the compartment and heads back up the corridor to enter the living quarters where Tirsa is still hooked up to the medical apparatus, which is keeping her wounds dampened with bacta and monitoring her vital signs. After checking the monitors with a smile he walks back out to the door and looks out in the corridor, wondering what will need to be done here. ::

[Rama Sha]

Hmmmmmmmmmm lets see.....


:: Rama opens Draven Shirt. On his chest is a small button looking notch. Rama pushes it. A panel in Draven's chest opens up revealing the inner workings of a droid ::


Oh he blew his powercore when he overloaded his matter Tranfer.

Im gonna need another droid power core.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra watches on, not pleased that there is nothing for her to do to help. When Rama comes back and moves to Draven, she can't believe that the blue alien is no alien but a droid.

"How did you know he was a droid?"

[Endo Freedoo]

:: From the doorway, looking down the corridor, he notices what Rama does to Draven, and his ears stand up straight on his head as he is quite shocked to learn Draaven was a droid, though that would explain his sudden mastery of the Rodain language. Endo moves from the doorway through the corridor and wonders if there is anything he is needed for. He looks to Sierra. ::

Might not be a bad idea to get Tirsa and Wojo back to HQ soon, and from what I saw from above, I doubt that Rama will be able to repair that ship with a few hand tools. Even if it does fly again, I doubt it would have any hull integrity.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra looks over at Endo and nods, "Good idea there."

She walks over to Rama and leans down, looking over Draven with much curiosity. "This is impressive. I couldn't tell he was a droid. But ..."

She puts a hand on her father's shoulder, "... we really need to get going. Wojo and Tirsa aren't doing so good from what he said. They need medical attention that this ship doesn't have."

[Rama Sha]

uh....

:: Rama looks up. ::


um ok....I can try to fix him on the way.



I'll tell you how I knew then too.

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Sierra relays the message that Rama is in agreement about leaving and he closes the hatch. Weaving carefully through the mass of bodies in the corridor, he makes his way to the pilot’s chair and straps himself in, his hands moving over the controls, initiating the engine start up and engaging the repulsorlifts. He turns his head and looks back down the corridor. ::

I’ll do all I can to keep the ride smooth, since so many don’t have proper safety restraints.

:: The Chimera slowly lifts from the ground and its landing struts fold back into their recesses under the craft. Its nose points upwards and the ship begins to pull away from the planet. ::

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra presses her hands to the sides of the corridor to steady herself as the ship ascends, "Oh this should be a fun trip."

[Rama Sha]

Yeah.....


R6 come here....

:: the small doid rolls over to him ::

I think I might be able to use R6's back up battery to jump start our freind here.

[Endo Freedoo]

:: The Chimera breaks the planet’s gravitational pull and exits the stratosphere, entering the vacuum of space. Endo begins programming the coordinates for TSE HQ into the Nav computer for the Hyperspace jump. ::

[Rama Sha]

:: Rama pulls out the the back up battery power cables, and plugs them into Dravens power core. ::

Well you see i did know Draven........And when Draven came back and knew something wasn't right. I didn't sense a life force. I knew there was a bounty on my head and the lucians have been using Replicant droids to try to get out their prey. But I think he really does think he is Draven. He accepted my offer. An staright out assaisn droid would have just killed me.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra leans on the side of the corridor, "So this Draven, the real Draven that is ... he's dead or is this just something based off of him eventhough he is alive?"

[Endo Freedoo]

:: He pulls back on the control lever and the Chimera darts into hyperspace, leaving behind the world of Agamar, bound for what he had grown to consider home. ::

[Rama Sha]

I honestly don't know....he could still be alive.

[Sierra Sha]

"Strange then, that's for sure. Well, I'm going to see how long we get to sit in hyperspace since I know next to nothing about droids."

Sierra walks over to the cockpit and pokes her head in, "Hey? How long till we get to the Empire?"

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Turning his attention away from his task at hand, which isn’t much while navigating through hyperspace, Endo answers Sierra’s question. ::

Its about a three hour flight, Miss Sha.

[Sierra Sha]

"Miss Sha? Ah, I never told you my name. Call me Sierra and thanks."

She makes her way over to where Rama is trying to fix up Draven, "Well, looks like it's going to be a three hour trip. Finally, getting to headquarters and seeing everyone soon, Pop."

[Rama Sha]

A three hour tour huh?



Well,Gilligan..........

:: Rama Press a button on the side of Draven's Neck. ::


Meet the Prof.

[Sierra Sha]

Sierra looks at Rama in confusion, not getting the joke. The feeling of confusion is quickly replaced with curiosity as she waits to see how the droid is going to react after being non-functioning for quite sometime.

[Endo Freedoo]

:: Finding little to do with himself while navigating through hyperspace, he relaxed inhis chair and withdrew a cigar from his pocket, popping an end in his mouth he sampled its flavor some before lighting it. ::

[Draven Sil]

:: Draven's eyes jerk open. ::



What........


:: he looks around waiting for his eyes to adjust. ::



......what happened? Did we win?
