The Mighty Jungle

[Akhilleus]

[SIZE=10.5pt]Piloting a shuttle down to the planet Tygara, Nikias sat behind the steering yolk of the ship guiding it down and into the atmosphere of the planet. On his quest to learn more about the galaxy and become more cultured Nikias had decided to pay a visit to the planet Tygara. He'd heard many things about their people and tales of how the people were divided similar to how the City-States were on his homeworld. It would be interesting to see how the inhabitants of Tygara progressed differently from the Hellyni. Though Nikias was not alone on this journey, another of the Silver Sanctum jedi by the name of [member="Orihime Ike"] had decided to join him. Nikias had no clue as to why she wanted to, but he had no problem with it at all. They were both apart of the same faction and it would be good to forge bonds between the others there. [/SIZE]


[SIZE=10.5pt]"You're getting soft." [/SIZE][SIZE=10.5pt]The voice that Nikias had named Trellos said as it taunted the young man. "You can fool yourself that thinking joining those mystics will change you, but I still know the truth! You are nothing more than a killer! A murderer! You sent the men under your command to their deaths..."[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]Gritting his teeth Nikias shook his head trying to chase the voice away. "They were murders, rapists! They were not real soldiers!" Nikias growled out as he sped up the ship as though trying to outrun the voice.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]"Even so what about your brother? Hmm, I remember that day. The two were at each other’s necks like wild rancors. You were nothing more than beasts." [/SIZE][SIZE=10.5pt]Trellos said taunting Nikias and laughing at the memories he was bringing up. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]Temper flaring Nikias slammed a fist into the control panel. "He sacrificed himself for me! I know I'm at fault!"[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]"Are you sure he sacrificed himself? Or did you really kill him purposely?" The dark voice asked.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]Not wanting to think of such a thing, that he had purposely killed his brother Nikias felt a surge of sorrow and rage overtake him. "NO!" Nikias screamed but the blaring from the control panel caught his attention. Looking out the viewport he saw it all too late. A large tree stood before the shuttle and grasping the steering yolk Nikias had avoided a head on collision though the sound of metal being torn filled the cockpit. Activating the coms Nikias sent a warning back to Orihime. "Brace for impact!" He screamed as the ship went flying into the forest canopy. The shuttle didn't stand a chance as it tore through trees the hull being heavily damaged and as it slammed into the ground Nikias' head hit the control panel and everything went black.[/SIZE]

She remained in there with a smile on her face. The ship was an interesting place and the one she was in here with well what better way to meet new people then with some of the more amazing and fun things you can do like exploring and adventuring. She rather liked it and stood there until she felt the ship coming in for an impact and braced herself against the one wall focusing to keep her grip and be ready. She was listening to the klaxons before wrapping the force around herself to have a protective barrier and bubble to soften the blow from crashing as she spoke. "This was not the idea I had for a first meeting but lets go."

[SIZE=10.5pt]Eyes fluttering open hearing the voice Nikias groaned as he raised his head up from the control panel feeling a warm substance flowing down the left side of his face. It didn't take a genius to realize what it was... Blood though from the amount of it the wound wasn't to serious. Groggily tapping away on the control panel Nikias tried to pull up the damage reports though none of the information he was given was good. The ship had been punctured in many places and would no longer be space worthy and the engines had suffered a considerable amount of damage as well. Not even the coms were operational so they couldn't call for assistance. "Stang." Nikias cursed while stumbling to his feet and out the cockpit and into the main portion of the ship with Orihime. Clinging to the open doorway to keep himself balanced Nikias fought the since of vertigo that threatened to overcome him. It was a common thing when people took a head wound, but he'd be fine. "Ships useless, and so are the coms. We're going to have to make our way to the nearest city on foot." Nikias said to Orihime. "This is my fault, if you wish to curse me or tell the masters at the Sanctum about this you are free to once we return." [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Nikias was sincere in his apology but thankfully Orihime hadn't taken any damage from the crash, just how she had done that he did not know. Though most likely through use of the force, something he had yet to fully delve into. Moving over to one of the compartments of the ship Nikias withdrew the first aid kit and survival pack that contained water and nutrition cubes. Moving to the door he hit the button off to the side for the door to begin opening, and outside the ship were trees that reached high into the sky. Barely any light was able to penetrate the forests canopy. "Well... I guess it could be worse?" [/SIZE]

The world of Tygara was... pretty and she knew plenty of things before she was getting up and shaking her head. She knew how to work on the things they had. Her body cushioned by the force so it. She stood up moving into the jungle and wreck while hearing the other padawan with her hand on her jaw where she had knocked against the wall. Her attention was on a few of the things while she spoke. "DOn't worry about it, we are jedi and if we aren't crashing on a planet we are usually doing something wrong." She said it with a smile but was not controlling and clamping down on all of her faculities. Her pheromones releasing a little more before she checked her hair. "Besides this world has a nice resort temple my mother built for training."

[SIZE=10.5pt]Chuckling at the joke Nikias dug a bacta patch out of the first aid kit and placed it over the fresh wound. He felt the faint stinging at first but soon enough it become cool and soothing. "Well glad to know I'm on the right track to being a jedi." Nikias said making his way over to Orihime. He had no clue about the pheromones that she was exuding due to the Hellyni's immunity to things that could affect their minds. For someone so young Orihime certainly had loads more confidence than Nikias himself had in such situations. This being a foreign world and all meant that he had no clue about anything on it, the natives that inhabited it, nor the dangers that the wildlife posed. Carrying the pack for both of them Nikias looked in each direction not quite sure which way north was. "If your mother has a resort here I assume you're familiar with this planet?" Though it was a long shot Nikias still asked. "If so do you happen to know where we are and how to reach civilization?" The lights that shined through the canopy seemed to be growing more dim as they talked signifying the sun falling. Soon it would be night with them both trapped in the jungle, Even so it didn't seem to bad as nikias could here a stream nearby. [/SIZE]

She was looking at him and shrugged a little. "Yeah I know a little about the world." She looked at her equipment and the tome was there while she held up the book like databank. She could show many of the things about it on the screen while she was happy about it. "Jedi tech, my mom makes a bunch of things for every situation." She smiled bringing up information and maps of the planet. "We can go through the jungle here to the nort and we'll be able to find some of the old slaver outposts. From there it is a straight shot to the temple and some of the ruins on the planet." A look on her face before motioning for them to be able to do whatever they wanted to. She had her saber and robes while looking over some of the things in her equipment pack. "We also got a creature index for anything we might face."
