	IC: Abigail Location: Ruins The corridor was ominous, with its stark white walls and no windows. It stretched on ahead of her beyond her eye sight. She had been running for what seemed like forever. Only stopping to catch her breath, and never long enough for actual rest. It was chasing her. What it was she didn't know, but she knew it was after her. It was a dark shapeless shadow that sucked in all the light. Even now she could see it behind her growing ever closer. There is nothing she can do to stop it, she can only run. Abigail blinked a couple of times trying to clear the grogginess from her eyes. The last vestige of her dream fading from her memory as reality came back into focus. She looked across the small hovel to find Kay looking out the window. "How long was I out for?" Getting the makeshift water skin she had made she took a drink. She looked out the "window" at the rubble. Nothing moved, not even the wind. But it wasn't what was there that grabbed her attention it was what wasn't there. The carcass of the Clicker that Kay had killed was gone. Tag: Witchdoctor187 -----signature----- You have to organize us. We're not cowards, we'll do as you tell us, we'll fight.

	Keheen Shurre Barren plains.... Keheen slowly sat up looking around. She frowned, her fur standing on end. This place looked nothing like where she had last been. Well, not that she could remember clearly. She remembered a plant...and that was about all she could remember. She slowly stood up, sniffing the air around her. No, she did not recall this strange place. Keheen turned slowly, as she sniffed the air, growling softly. She did not like this feeling of strangness she felt. She stopped, looking carefully in one direction. There was something else here. She could smell it. And she felt .... something. She could not put her finger on it. Well, one thing for certain, another thing she didnt like was the area she found herself in. So she began to move, hoping to find some sort of cover or shade or something perhaps that would tell her where she was. Perhaps with luck, she could find someone to explain to her how she had gotten here. Keheen began to move at a swift clip, to locate whatever was nearby.

	IC: Abigail Location: Ruins After a short breakfast of nasty tubers, Abigail had decided she needed to get a better lay of the land. Kay stayed at the hovel for some reason or another said something about possible improvements to their defenses. He said he had it under control so she set out looking for anything that would help them or tell them what was going on. After a few hours of walking, and not finding a kriffing thing, Abigail started back towards the ruins. That’s when she heard it. It wasn’t the Clickers, this was more of a high pitched whistle, and it was coming from all around. She scrambled towards a large boulder, trying to get as much cover as possible. Her lightsaber was in her hand, but wasn’t lit. The whistling was growing louder. She reached the boulder, couching against the side so that her back was covered. The whistling reached its apex, an earsplitting screech. Abigail saw it, the small rodent like creature that was running at high speed across the ground. Its ears looked like reeds and were the source of the sound. It stopped in front of the boulder, looking at her with curiosity. Abigail let out the breath she had been holding. Smiling she pointed at the rodent. “You almost gave me a heart attack, little one.” Abigail was relieved that there was no danger. She was also delighted that there seemed to be other forms of life other then the hostile kind on this planet. Suddenly its ears pinned back and it bared its small teeth. It scrambled backwards and took off running. Before Abigail could figure out what she did to frighten the poor thing, the back of her neck began to tingle. Her sense of danger through the Force was trying to warn her of something. A rumbling started, deep and earth shaking, small pebbles on the ground started dancing. Abigail turned, and the boulder she was against started to move. It unfolded, sprouting jointed limbs. Abigail ignited her lightsaber, its blade painting the rock monster in a pale blue hue. She slashed at the beast, leaving a meter long gash of scorched rock. The beast came at her anyway, not slowed by the wound in the slightest. A stone hand shot out towards her, and her blade intercepted it. The stone appendage dropped to the ground severed at the midpoint. The beast simply grew another arm to replace the one it lost. She flipped backwards trying to gain space. She aimed a Force blast at the beast hoping to push it back further, but the blast deflected off of it and slammed into the ground leaving a meter sized crater of compressed dirt. Reaching out with the Force she grabbed any loose object, mostly stones, and hurled them at the creature as hard as she could. The creature finally started to react as stone began to chip. Abigail grasped at the creature with the Force, but it felt like trying to hold onto ice and her grip would just slip off. She did notice however small places that her grip would catch on to. The beast heaved itself at her, a mass of rock and dust. She rolled to the side, but was clipped by an arm that sent her spinning to the ground. She let out a sharp gasp of pain, her shoulder throbbed and her arm went numb. The beast was regaining its footing preparing to come after her again. Abigail latched on to one of those small “gaps” in the beast. She narrowed her mind, trying to wiggle through the gap to the inside. She started to pour as much energy through it as possible drawing on all the Force she could. The beast stopped, and started to tremble. Cracks began to form, and heat radiated off of it like a thermal oven. Its stone body began to glow and smoke, melting from the inside out. Soon the beast was no more than a pool of liquid hot magma, and Abigail fell backwards to the ground gasping in pain and clutching her shoulder.

	IC - Qui-Gon Jinn barren plain "How!?" she demanded. "Darth Maul killed you, or so we were told. And what's that sound?" Clearly she knew him - the Living Force told him she was speaking the truth as she knew it and yet Qui-Gon had absolutely no recollection of who she was. Before he could answer, a shadow swallowed both of them up and a loud clicking sound filled their ears. The Force seemed to fizzle away all of a sudden - the harder Qui-Gon tried to grasp it, the further it went. Igniting his lightsaber, he used a swim motion to get his arm behind this young woman and shift her back as a winged feline swooped down. A razor sharp claw passed within a millimeter of Qui's neck as he dodged. Without the Force, he nearly had his head removed. It was discomforting for the Master, but he recovered well, striking the beast in the wing as it tried to make another pass. "There may be more here than meets the eye my young friend," Qui-Gon said as the monster breathed its last. He didn't want to admit just yet that the Force was flickering, as if it were coming from a great distance. He also had no intentions of admiting he didn't know this woman... yet. There was something greater at work here and the Force would eventually show him what it was... provided it came back to him. "We should seek shelter and nourishment." There was a mountain in the distance in a different direction through the forest, than the way he had come. "May I suggest we move this way, as there may be fresh water springs near that mountain." Just as he spoke, the skies opened up in a terrible downpour. Qui-Gon raised his eyebrow in a quasi-comical manner. "Ask for water, and one receives it."

	OOC: sorry i'm back IC: Kay Qel-Dramas Kay had kept watch all night, not wanting to wake Abigail, she had probably been through a lot ,ore than he had since she had been before him, for how long he didn't know. She was good company on this dreary planet, because the indigenous fauna wasn't going to take a liking to you. But she kept having what seemed like a bad dream, she tossed around quite a bit, almost until she was rolling on the ground, then that's when Kay woke her up. Earlier that morning Abi had gone out to scout around the area and see if she could find anything of interest. Kay felt that he should stay and ready the defenses of their makeshift fort in case any Clickers came back. As things stood right now their defenses couldn't keep out a Womp rat, but it would give them a few seconds to ready themselves. so Kay began with the door and started staking bricks around the large entrance in order to make it more narrow than before. then Kay continued by shoving bricks, stones, and dirt into the large gaps in the walls, giving this place only one entrance. Kay thought about Abi because for a split second he felt a ripple in the force, Abi was in trouble. but before he could act a surging pain came over him, a unbearable and splitting pain that ran through his head. Kay fell to his knees clutching his head. He could feel the force drain from him, but as hard as he tried to hold onto it the more intense the pain became. The pain was soon so bad that Kay soon slipped into unconsciousness and fell to the floor. The only noise he heard was the wind blowing over the dirt landscape. is eyes were fixed on the door, but slowly they shut as Kay slipped into a deep trance. before he knew it everything was dark.

	Keheen Shurre Barren plains.... Keheen moved swiftly, her nose picking up several scent around her. She had no idea what most of them were, but she did pick up a very faint sensation, that there were people here as well. As to wether they were friendly or not, she would worry about later. She could at least watch them, and perhaps learn more about this strange place. Soon, Keheen noticed something in the distance. There was a mountain, not so far away. She could be there soon enough, if she kept up her pace. She simply hoped that whatever sun this place circled stayed up long enough for her to reach the place. From there, she could scan the surrounding area, and perhaps find water there as well. Just as she was moving across the plains, she suddenly lost the sensation of the beings she had felt. She stopped suddenly, sniffing around. It suddenly felt very wrong. With a renewed effort, she began to run now, her eyes and ears alert for any danger coming towards her. She thought she saw something in the air, off in the distance, but it dissapeared quickly. Without warning, a sudden downpour opened up in the area. Keheen roared in furry. She HATED sudden downpours. She flipped her poncho up over he head, as she took off running once more. The rain brought stronger scents to her nose, but she would have to be careful, because she was not leaving tracks. But she decided that reaching the mountain was more important, so she kept running. Keheen saw a flicker of green. Maybe there was a forest nearby? Or at least some trees. That would be good. Keheen continued to run.

	IC – Padmé Master Jinn seemed like he didn’t know her. It was odd, but before she could say anything, he shoved out of the way. A loud clicking noise and a flying cat! It almost cut the Jedi in the throat, but he mananged to chop it down. "May I suggest we move this way, as there may be fresh water springs near that mountain." Just as he spoke, the skies opened up in a terrible downpour. Qui-Gon raised his eyebrow in a quasi-comical manner. "Ask for water, and one receives it." Padmé giggled at his comment just as a swarm of those flying cats came into view, just above the treetops. Padmé pulled out her blaster and shot one down before running toward the trees for protection. “Master Jinn, I think you’re right, we need to at least find some cover. Being out here with all these cats is dangerous!” The rain came down like a flood, soaking Padmé’s clothes very quickly as she ran for cover. Once under the trees she saw what looked like a Triani coming toward them. “Oh no, does she see those monsters?” Padmé asked as she took another shot that missed the nearest creature.

	Keheen Shurre Moving into the forest As Keheen headed for the flicker of green she realized that it was a forest. Very strange land, she thought to herself, as she moved along the barren area, now making her way towards the tree line. Suddenly there was movement again. Much more movement. It looked like a swarm of some strange creatures, converging on something. Then a sound came that Keheen recognized very well. Blaster fire. So there were people here! It sounded like someone or something was in trouble. Whipping the rain from her eyes, Keheen began to run in earnest, her growls growing as she moved. Her eyes grew wide, as she caught a better look of things. Attacking two people on the ground, look like flying... Keheen did a double take. Felines? Keheen extended her claws. This was something ferel. Something she understood. She was wet, and misserable, and she would have no trouble taking out her frustrations on these things if they did not listen. She did notice that while the woman was dressed in a way she did not recognize, the male was dressed as something she DID recognize...and was shocked to see. Perhaps he could offer some information. Keheen increased her speed, and leaped, with a roar announcing her attentions to the flying things above. She was more than prepared to 'persuade' them to find another meal.

	IC - Qui-Gon Jinn edge of great forest "Oh no, does she see those monsters?" As Qui-Gon was about to answer his companion, the furry Trianii sprang into action. Keheen increased her speed, and leaped, with a roar announcing her attentions to the flying things above. She was more than prepared to 'persuade' them to find another meal. "I would say she does indeed," Qui-Gon answered. This was indeed a strange place; the hostile creatures were like nothing he had ever encountered before in the galaxy, but the sentients, they were familiar and non-threatening. The Force was still distant and seemed as though it were pained - or strained - to reach him. Perhaps there was a great distance separating them, he pondered as his saber flashed to life. Leaping toward the Trianii, he side stepped her, cutting down a large feline that was closing from behind. When the danger had passed, Qui-Gon said, "And what brings you to such a hostile place?" It had suddenly dawned on him that since he had no memory of arriving in this place, perhaps the others were the same.

	Keheen Shurre Moving into the forest Keheen roared, and claws met the strange creatures that were attacking the others. She did hope that those who she was striving to help, did not turn their weapons on her. Especially the Jedi wielding his familiar lightsaber. As in reponse to her mental query, his saber flashed to life. Leaping towards her he side stepped her, cutting down a large feline that was closing from behind. She simply nodded as she took claws and fang to the other felines that were attacking them. Soon the battle was over. Their attackers were either dead, or fleeing. As Keheen stood, composing herself back into a calmer state, she realised that she could not 'feel' the two beings in front of her. It was a very strange sensation. As she turned to look at her new hosts, the man Jedi spoke to her. "And what brings you to such a hostile place?" he asked her. Claws sheathed, she smooth out her simple tunic, as she turned to speak with them. "In truth, I can annnser not. I simmmmply awoke here." she stated, tail swishing gently as she looked between the man and woman. "I simply seeked sommmplace safe, till I can find out what happened." she stated softly. The man was interesting. Not only was he Jedi, he was tall. She moved the two strands of beeds that were intwined in her brown and tan striped fur, and simply watched the pair. "What of youuu?" she asked them, as she scanned the surround forest. A forest was good. She gestured. "Talk..while wee walk?" she asked as she waited for a response.

	IC: Cameron Dantoine Cameron Jameson figured that it should have come to no surprise for Bastila to find her holding a lightsaber at the slaver's throat, but the young Jedi's reaction surprised even her. "Let him go, now." If her dark tone wasn't enough to convince Cameron the snap hiss of a lightsaber activating certainly did catch her attention. "Yes, yes, listen to your pretty friend there." Cameron brought the blade to the man's ear. "Where's the boy?" she demanded, before she felt something pull at her arm. The lightsaber flew from her hands and she knew immediately Bastila was responsible, using her Force powers. "This is not the way," she tried to reason with the older woman. Cameron replied by throwing the slaver towards her. "You sound like one of those do gooders on children's holovids." She wondered if it was maybe too old for the young Jedi to remember, the one about the superhero saving the environment. "That's what we're meant to do," Bastila told her. Cameron watched as the slaver began to run away, before reaching her hand out and used the Force to pull her lightsaber towards her. Before she could throw it in a killing move however Bastila swung up to block it, the yellow blade clashing against the blue. "You need help." Cameron pulled back and struck hard, trying to knock the weapon from her grip. Bastila anticipated this and moved to parry the blow, stepping out of the way rather than try and block. "I do need help," Cameron replied, swinging her lightsaber at Bastila in a bid to keep her away, "I need to hunt down these anti Jedi extremists, I need to find my son." Bastila knew what she was trying to do and stepped in between Cameron and the fleeing villain. "Killing them won't ease the pain," she said as she blocked against Cameron charging in, lightsaber first, "believe me." With her mind focused on blocking the attack Cameron used the opportunity to whip her leg out, sweeping to take Bastila's feet out from under her. She went to storm past when something closes around her wrist. Bastila had grabbed her and yanked to pull her in, Cameron raising her lightsaber up to block what would likely have been a killing blow. Cameron allowed her weight to drop and used her free arm to aim the point of the elbow right at Bastila's ribs. The force of the blow was enough to make her let go, but as Cameron got to her feet she saw that it was too late. "Ah great, you let him get away." Bastila got to her feet as well, prepared to defend herself against the older Jedi. Cameron held her pose for a moment before deciding there would be nothing to gain by fighting and deactivated her lightsaber. "You are completely out of line in what you did." It was a lecture she had to give before, one that fell on deaf ears. Cameron, for her part, thought that many would fall before Bastila in her future, many that wouldn't need to, so she wasn't one to talk. The young Jedi had tried to cover for her so far, emphasis on so far, and interrupted the canned Jedi ramblings with, surprisingly, a compliment. "And you're certainly improving your skills." Before Bastila could work out what she meant Cameron tossed her lightsaber to her. Bastila might have been learning Battle Meditation but without the proper preparation or knowing what Cameron was doing she did what most others would have done, instinctively went to catch it. So focused on the lightsaber she was she didn't see Cameron charge in, using her body to knock her to the ground as she slipped the weapon from her grip. Catching her own she activated both weapons. "Consider that and the bruised ribs payback." Bastila was ready to talk to the Council about getting rid of her when she sensed something from her. Using the Force she could see that it wasn't anger, or frustration. Rather the emotion coming from her strongest was depression, and sadness. Feelings about her son being taken away no doubt. "Cameron, listen to me, a Jedi's life is sacrifice. You have to be able to let go of these feelings." She knew immediately it was the wrong thing to say. "Let go like hell, they have to be stopped," Cameron roared, "my son shouldn't have to be sacrificed. We shouldn't allow these bigots to target us. They must be stopped from hurting the Jedi, they must be..." her mind began to fog over, and as she tried to refocus her train of thought she felt her legs give way, the lightsabers dropping from her hands as she did so. In a flash Bastila was over her, her muted words clearly showing her concern that Cameron had actually done herself harm with the emotional state she had worked herself into. But Cameron couldn't grasp anything more than that as consciousness slipped away from her.

	GM Approved Name: Darth Vader (Anakin Skywalker) Gender: Male Age: 23 Species: Human Homeworld: Tatooine Era: Rise of the Empire (19bby) Personality ---Traits: As Anakin he was strong and courageous, never backing down from danger and willing to trade his life for those in need. His love and devotion for his wife Padme was unquestioned. When he became Darth Vader he started to let his bitterness at being betrayed poison his soul. Currently he is despondent, and as a result has given up his anger. ---Likes: Podracing, flying, fixing things. ---Dislikes: Lying and deception, politics, bumbling fools. Appearance ---Skin Color: Caucasian ---Hair Color: Dark Blond ---Eye Color: Blue ---Clothing: Anakin dressed in traditional Jedi garb, though he wore darker colors than most Jedi—dark brown and black. The tabards on his tunic were made of synthetic leather. ---Other Attributes: As an adult, he stood 1.85 m (6'0") in height. Anakin wore his hair slightly long, a trait common among Jedi Knights. After losing the majority of his right arm—from the elbow down—to Count Dooku, he was given a cybernetic prosthetic replacement that was later destroyed, then rebuilt by him and covered with a black leather glove. During the Clone Wars, he acquired a vertical scar near his right eye, the result of a lightsaber duel with the Dark Jedi Asajj Ventress. ---Other Details: Weapons: none The Force ---Sensitivity: 10 ---Religion: Jedi, Sith ---Lightsaber -----Crystal(s): -----Blade(s): -----Color(s): -----Handle Description(s): -----Lightsaber skill: on a scale of 9 Biography: Born as a slave on Tatooine, he was found by Master Qui-Gon Jinn, Anakin was subsequently freed and taken to the Jedi temple to be trained. Eventually the Council agreed to train him, mostly due to Master Jinn’s belief that he was the “Chosen One”. By the time of the council’s decision unfortunately, Master Jinn had been killed by a Sith, Darth Maul. Over the next decade Anakin would be trained by Qui-Gon’s former apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi. The two would form a bond of brotherhood that would continue after Anakin’s ascension to the rank of Jedi Knight. Dubbed the "Hero With No Fear", war molded Anakin into a man and honed his combat ability, but it continued to nourish his ego. It was also a lie. Anakin had no fear for his own life, but he was terrified for the lives of his Master, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, the troops under his authority, and even R2-D2, who accompanied Anakin whenever he could. It was difficult to rein in Anakin as he increasingly had trouble following the strict doctrine governed by the Jedi Code, especially when the Order itself was complicit in ambiguous moral acts by waging a full-scale war. But, above all else, Anakin feared for his beloved Padmé. He wrote to her whenever he could, and also tried to meet with her on several occasions, but because of their duties they saw each other very rarely. And the few times they did, Padmé was usually in danger, which fueled his protectiveness for her and his fear. This fear was the cause of Anakin’s fall to the darkside. After slaughtering the Separatists leaders on Mustafar, Vader contemplated his transformation and convinced himself that all he had done was for the benefit of the Republic. While doing so, he remembered his Master's order to communicate with him as soon as the enemy was defeated. During this communication, he thought of how soon he planned for their positions to be changed, and how soon he would kill the Dark Lord—just as soon as he discovered a way to preserve Amidala's life. Darth Sidious warned Vader of danger before he cut off communication. Thinking him only joking, as the only thing arriving was his wife's ship, he left the bunker to meet her. But Padmé wasn’t the only one aboard the ship. She had unknowingly brought Kenobi with her. Upon seeing his former master, Vader thought that Amidala had betrayed him and brought Kenobi to kill him. Overwhelmed by his anger and rage, he lashed out with the Force, choking his wife into unconsciousness. Kenobi also tried to reason with his former pupil, but Vader refused to listen, too corrupt to be turned from the dark side. Vader and Kenobi fought an intense battle throughout the mining complex and down the river of lava outside. IC: Vader Kenobi pleaded with his apprentice to abandon the Darkside. “I have failed you, Anakin. I was never able to teach you to think.“ Vader stares at Obi-Wan, his anger seething. ”I should have known the Jedi were plotting to take over . . . “ ”From the Sith!!! Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is evil.” ” From the Jedi point of view! From my point of view, the Jedi are evil.” “Well, then you are lost!” Vader jumps and flips onto obi-Wan’s platform. The fighting continues again until Obi-Wan jumps toward the safety of the black sandy edge of the lava river. He yells at Vader. “It's over, Anakin. I have the high ground.” ”You underestimate my power!” Obi-Wan his voice pained. ”Don't try it.” Vader follows, and Obi-Wan cuts his young apprentice at the knees, then cuts off his left arm in the blink of an eye. Vader tumbles down the embankment and rolls to a stop near the edge of the lava. Vader struggles to pull himself up the embankment with his mechanical hand. His thin leather glove has been burned off. He keeps sliding down in the black sand. Obi-Wan’s voice is filled with anguish. ”You were the Chosen One! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them. It was you who would bring balance to the Force, not leave it in Darkness." Obi-Wan picks up Anakin's light saber and begins to walk away. He stops and looks back as Vader screams at him. “I hate you!” ”You were my brother, Anakin. I loved you.” The world blurred for Anakin, and the pain was excruciating. He lapsed into unconsciousness. He awoke to the feel of rain on his face. Opening his eyes he saw a sky of raging clouds unleashing there anger on the world. He stood up and was surprised to find his body whole; his wounds at Obi-Wan’s hands were gone. More urgently was his sense of the Force, or the lack of it. He reached for it with everything he had, but to no avail. He relented, his anger and rage subsiding, as he tried to remember how he got to this place. He remember dueling with Obi-Wan over the lake of lava after Padme had brought… The thought of Padme was a slap in the face. His memory of choking his wife was vivid. He didn’t remember sliding to the ground, but never the less he found himself in the mud, his tears mixing with the rain on his face. In losing his temper and giving into his rage he had possibly killed the only person in the Galaxy that had cared for him. Vader despised himself, and in that moment he came to a crossroads. To his left he saw himself as Darth Vader with all the power of the darkside at his finger tips. To his right he saw Jedi Skywalker mourning his wife, and confronting Palpatine to bring him to justice. Nether seemed like the path he wanted. Instead he looked forward at the path that he would forge himself. That of Anakin, a former slave, alone in the universe. Standing back up he walked forward into his future. It had been hours since he had found himself in this strange place, and Anakin had yet to see a single soul. The barren rocky ground stretched for miles, and the clouded sky never cleared. He was beginning to fear he was alone here when a splash of color drew his attention. It was a familiar sight. The lightsaber lay on the ground with its blue blade humming and sparking against the light rain. Anakin picked it up and deactivated it. He looked around to see if the owner was near. What he saw was unexpected. A woman, black hair and pale skin, lay near a pool of glassy rock unconscious. She wasn’t dressed much like a Jedi, except for the hooded cloak, and Anakin couldn’t remember seeing her anywhere before. He knelt down examining her. Her shoulder was lacerated and dislocated, but otherwise she seemed un hurt. Picking her up he scanned the area for shelter, and seeing some ruins far in the distance he started that way.

	IC - Padmé "What of youuu?" she asked them, as she scanned the surround forest. A forest was good. She gestured. "Talk..while wee walk?" she asked as she waited for a response. Padmé started walking in the direction the others pointed to. "I don't know about Master Jinn, but I have no idea how I came to be here, but it seems like we need to work together to find the answers. I for one don't wish to stay here longer than is necessary. There must be a settlement somewhere on this planet and that would be the best place to get answers. Find out why we were brought here and how we can get off this planet." She waited for Qui-Gon to speak, hoping he would explain why he seemed not to know her. The forest was getting thick and Padmé hoped there would be no more trouble until they found some other people.

	IC - Qui-Gon Jinn forest As the three walked through the forest, Qui-Gon felt a strange sensation. The Force seemed to reassert itself, but it was... changed, somehow. He couldn't quite put his finger on it and he pondered what exactly was wrong with... this place. Yes, the Force was being effected by this place, not just in the obvious way. "I don't know about Master Jinn, but I have no idea how I came to be here, but it seems like we need to work together to find the answers. I for one don't wish to stay here longer than is necessary. There must be a settlement somewhere on this planet and that would be the best place to get answers. Find out why we were brought here and how we can get off this planet." Qui-Gon finally decided that now would be a good time to let this woman know that he didn't know her. "I too, do not know how I arrived here, or where I am, though the Force seems distant." He didn't want to speak his mind on the other thing he felt about the Force until he was more confident that he knew, especially with the Trianii being Force sensitive herself. He was reasonably sure she wouldn't have caught on to the differing nature of the Force or what might be responsible, so he didn't want to speak before knowing all the facts. Tucking his arms into his sleeves, he spoke again. "My name is indeed Qui-Gon Jinn," he said, turning to the woman, "but I'm afraid I have no memory of every meeting you, young lady. I would ask that you enlighten me as to how you know me; you seem familiar with me, as though we are friends." Turning to the Trianii, he said, "and what might your name be?" Tag: Ktala, Lauren_solo Co-GM's OOC: Just in case there's any confusion, we should all keep in mind what time frame our characters are from, so for instance, MCPO_John_117, when Anakin meets up with Padme, she shouldn't know anything about any marriage. And welcome to the game, dude. Should provide a bit of tension and fun no doubt. -----signature----- In time or so I'm told, I'm just another soul for sale, oh well Feel it in my bones when you break my back, break it just to watch me bend Why'd you have to go and Let it Die? -Foo Fighters http://conscienceoftheking.blogspot.com/

	IC: Cameron Forest "I was surprised by what I felt from Cameron." The Jedi struggled to listen to what was being said. "She is very upset over what happened to her, though it is telling that you picked up on her depression rather than her anger." One of them was Bastila, Cameron knew. The other was harder to place. "After trying to deal with the consequences of Revan and Malek we have tried to be more understanding. Our own actions have brought considerable anger on the Jedi and to be blind to this is foolhardy, especially in this case." "I'd like to say there has been progress made, but I'm afraid that she has only gotten worse." There was a pause, if either of them could hear her Cameron desperately wanted to try and set the record straight. "There was someone else in the Order who believed we should have acted. Maybe we were wrong to not see what she was trying to tell us, maybe we did what had to be done, either way she was willful, headstrong, and she sought to fulfill the justice of a Jedi with no regard to it's proper teachings." Vrook. Cameron was able to place the voice now. Vrook Lamar was one of the Jedi Masters on Dantoine, one she suspected was only held back from action against her by being outvoted. "Do you believe Cameron is still fit to be a Jedi?" he asked. Before Cameron could hear the answer there was a much louder voice, her own, telling her she had to wake up. "What a dream." Cameron felt sore, particularly in the head, as she regained consciousness. She could immediately tell that she was no longer in the fields of Dantoine, but in some kind of forest. It looked like Onderon, but she couldn't be sure. Another dream? she wondered. She stretched out with the Force and saw that this was real. The smell of rotting meat further convinced her that she was no longer dreaming, as did the warm breath against her face. Wide awake now Cameron found herself face to face with a tiger, sniffing at her to see if she was alive, or worth killing. She fought the instinct to pull back and made no sudden moves. The tiger moved it's head and began to gnaw at the Jedi robes, that was when Cameron reached back and felt the cylinder shape of a lightsaber. It's shape told her it was her own and with a flick of the switch she extended the blade, bringing it into the beast's neck. The powerful laser easily cut through the throat and the animal quickly dropped, it's lifeless form nearly falling on top of Cameron. She scooted back, feeling something underneath her and when she got to her feet to look saw that it was Bastila's lightsaber. She picked it up and looked at the tiger. "You or me pal," she said apologetically. A low roar caught her attention and Cameron activated both sabers now. "Don't know where I am, but I'm not about to be done in by a tiger." With that she lunged for the bushes. Tag: all -----signature----- Even as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil, for God is with me.
