"Come on, Tepp. You gotta go find someone. I'll be fine."

Shem was in a rather precarious state. Collision with a smaller city bird mid-flight had sent him towards the ground, where he got his right foot caught between two awkwardly placed pipes. Now he was dangling upside down, his leg sprained from what he could gather. The fledgling was trying to convince his droid companion Tepp to go venture off for help. Unfortunately, too worried for both his own and Shem's safety, the R5-unit wasn't budging. The droid protested in droidspeak, continuing to tremble in place.

Gosh," Shem sighed. "I'm gonna be here forever..."

He'd surely get in trouble upon his return to the Jedi Temple. Shem had already been venturing out on his own for a while now, so this was just one more reckless action for him to be rebuked for. What the fledgling was really worried about was the disappointment of his Uncle Spinner. Unfortunately for the young Rishii there seemed to be no other course of action, at least with his astromech too petrified to move. All he could do was pluck at the drawstring of his bow and pass the time...

"Now, the mist across the window hides the lines, But nothing hides the color of the lights that shine, Electricity so fine, Look and dry your eyes..."

Shem's singing halted. There was a shuffling sound. Somebody was approaching, help perhaps.

"Hello?" the boy called out. "Anyone there?"

"...why are you upside down?" A 6 foot tiger-lady stood, standing in white robes that only covered her chest, leaving her stomach exposed. Below a white pair of thin pants held up by a gold sash. Her body was covered in tan fur, with reddish stripes that spanned most of her body. "Are you stuck?"

"Are you stuck?"

Shem frowned, cocking his head at the strange Cathar woman who had just approached him. Wasn't it obvious? He wasn't going to say that, of course. The Rishii had manners after all, and his father would be quite upset if he knew he wasn't using them.

"Yeah," he nodded, returning his bow to his back before crossing his wing arms. "I had a mid air collision and fell down here. I think I sprained my leg too."

It was a predicament. His foot caught between the two pipes on the wall presented an issue of how exactly he was getting unstuck. There seemed to be no good way to get loose, at least from his upside-down perspective. The new arrival was quite strong looking though. Perhaps she'd be the key to getting free.

"Uh, think you could help out?" Shem asked. "All the blood getting to my head is making me kinda woozy. My droid has tools you can use if you wanna lift him up here to cut me loose. And he's going to help, right?"

As Shem glared at Tepp, the astromech reluctantly agreed, though his fear was still very apparent. This time it seemed to be of the large, intimidating tigress, but the reason didn't change what was a constant for the R5-unit.

Hopefully they could figure something out.

The Cathar tilted her head, before extending her hand, a pair of claws unsheathing from her feline hands.

Making her way up was a simple matter of mapping her way up. Jumping from a water grate, to a fire escape, to set of heating pipes. The cathar felt practically at home, using her tail as a way to latch onto anything it could as a way to steady herself. Despite being 900 years out of practice, she was still as graceful as ever when it came to climbing, and while her body weight caused a few falls, she seemed to catch herself with a burst of flame from her legs any time she fell.

It took a while, but she eventually made it up to the trapped Rishii. "Gotta watch where you fly, kid." She said, hanging sideway against the pipes that trapped the bird-person. "Now hold still..." And with that, she ignited her lightsaber, holding onto the pipes with one hand, and a tail.

A lightsaber. She was a Jedi? Obviously, Shem now recognized. The robes should have given it away, if not the subtle feeling of the force moving around the woman. Still, that was good. It was a way out, so there was no complaining there. She had some choice words for him, however.

"Gotta watch where you fly, kid."

"I was," he protested. "I just... got distracted is all."

A large flashy billboard had passed by, one advertising a new model of pod racer. It was on a large speeder and very hard to miss. The eye-catching colors were scientifically engineered to catch his attention long enough to cause an accident mid-flight. It was a rather embarrassing ordeal, but Shem held up his head, or down relative to the rest of the world. He'd just keep this experience in mind.

"I'm still," Shem assured. "You can do it now."

Wait, were these pipes active?

 

[DeadpoolMLP]

If they were, Jonyna didn't have to mind to think about it. Slash!

The pipes were, indeed, very active. As Jonyna cut through, high pressure water burst out from within, blasting Shem clean across to the other wall. Tepp squealed in shock, his vocoder sounding much like that of a mouse droid due to a programming error, making him sound far more cowardly. Shem managed to steady himself and flutter to the ground, landing on top of the droid's head stomach-first. The R5-unit wasted no time wheeling the boy out of the alley, for both their sakes.

"Thanks buddy," Shem sighed. "Oh."

The Rishii turned, gazing back into the water-filled alleyway.

"Are you okay, lady!?" he called back.

 

[DeadpoolMLP]

Jonyna, by comparison, was thrown back into the air. Ya know how they say cats always land on their feet? This one landed with a thump!

“…ow…”

 

[Stephen ResLoksu]

Stephen was wandering around the Capital, daydreaming. Even tho his code name was "Cyan Shadow", he wasn't that dark at all, in fact he considered himself as Grey Jedi. But he unleashed the Dark Side only if neceseary, and that was not often. His small droid, R4-S4 was always by his side. As he wandered, suddenly, he heard someone calling, "Are you there, lady?!"
He looked for the person and found a Rishii boy. At the moment, he saw a Denik female fall on ground with thump.
Stephen came closer,
"Oof... That was not a nice landing. Are you two alright?" he asks and lended her a helping hand.

"Oh gosh," Shem winced upon witnessing the landing of the Cathar. "Sorry! I forgot that the pipe could've been active before you cut it!"

That was a blunder for sure, but at least he was free. That was a start. Before long, however, a new set of footsteps emerged, along with a concerned voice.

"Oof... That was not a nice landing. Are you two alright?"

"I think I'm okay," Shem frowned. "Well, I sprained something, but other than that I'm fine."

Shem spared a concerned look over to the alleyway.

"I don't know about the cat lady," the fledgling added.

 

[DeadpoolMLP]

"I'm alive..." she groaned out, sitting up and turning to crack her now bruised back. "I've taken worse tumbles in my time. Think my ego is bleeding though..."

 

[Stephen ResLoksu]

"I'm alive..." she groaned out, sitting up and turning to crack her now bruised back. "I've taken worse tumbles in my time. Think my ego is bleeding though..."

"Well, I can clearly see that. You should be more careful next time."
With that he came closer to take a look at her, if she has no critical injuries. As Stephen was doing that, he said,
"R4, give me some bandages! Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Stephen ResLoksu and this is my droid, R4-S4. May I ask who are you?"

 

[DeadpoolMLP]

"Jonyna Si, Jedi." the cathar looked to the human, smiling with what looked to be a bloody mouth. She had landed face first. While she had several fractures, nothing was broken. She was a sturdy cat, it seemed, pausing to look to the droid. "Hi R4" She spoke in a series of what to anyone who didn't speak binary, was Jonyna making a bunch of noises with her mouth. She then looked back to Shem Spinner "You're welcome by the way!"

"Shem Spinner," the boy greeted. "Bow master in the making. This is Tepp, my co-pilot."

One day, at least, Shem would be a bow master. Whenever he could be better than his father with a bow. He added the latter part with a gesture to his droid, who managed a panicked greeting.

"You're welcome by the way!"

"Right," Shem nodded. "Thanks... uh..."

A frown came to his face as he assessed the damage. The Rishii couldn't help but wonder if the water was going to stop any time soon. It most certainly didn't. Liquid continued spilling out into the alleyway, now stretching well into the street.

Was that a bad thing?

"Is that supposed to stop?" he asked.

 

[Stephen ResLoksu]

"Is that supposed to stop?"

"Not by itself. Jonya, can you hand me that metal scrap over there? Spinner, you better get aside. I don't want you to get more injuries."
He turns to his droid,
"R4, would you weld it, please?"
In the moment, he realises that his lightsaber is pretty visible and hides in deeper in his cloack.

 

[DeadpoolMLP]

Jonyna raised an eyebrow, grabbing the scrap and handing it over. "I take it you're a jedi too then?"

 

[Stephen ResLoksu]

"I take it you're a jedi too then?"

Stephen looked at her with seriousness in his eyes.
"I am. But I'm trying to be incognito among the people. Looking for Death Sticks dealers, y'know."
