With eyes wide open (a past rp)(complete)

[Garith Darkhold]

There was no way for Yokuni to keep time in this state of mind. The only thought there was making the whiskey. There was no saving the damsel in distress because he had no clue there even was a damsel at this point. After the still was good and running he sat back and feel a sleep.

She stayed there that night watching fir anything and everything that moved. Did she think he was coming she didn't know. Everything that had happened she just didn't know. As morning crept up she felt tired. Cold. Hungry. So. Now she would have to find food. He was force sensitive if he wanted to find her he could.

Would he. Unknown. Two stubborn people.

Next Morning

Waking up the next morning Yokuni had hardly opened his eyes he could smell the fresh new smells of make at home whiskey. Half awake he stubbled his way over blindly finding a cup and poured himself a drink. He was half asleep still, so there was not even a thought of what happened before he ragged out and built a damn still. Nope he just took a drink.

[Arianna Organa]

She wasn't happy about this not one bit but she was going to have to go back. She'd look like a fool and an idiot a man goes to slap her, and then scares her and she wanders back in like woman off Maury.

She was still cold, she was hungry she could figure something out she was sure but she wasn't a complete incompetent but she was going to do it. sighing heavily she began the walk back she could smell that death in a bottle hell if he wanted to kill himself why should she care, only if he tried to kill her should it matter. Men.

She stood outside where the ship was sitting. She could see him, he could care less whether she was dead or alive. Great. So much for partner ship. Yep begging.

She walked slowly in testing the water, "Is it safe for me to be here?"

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

 

[Garith Darkhold]

He was just finishing up that first drink when [member="Arianna Darklighter"] walked in. It was as if she had never left. Question is did he remember raging out like that last night. “Yes it is safe. How did you sleep last night and when did I build a whiskey still? Did I do it in my sleep?”

 

[Arianna Organa]

She couldn't believe it he didn't remember it any of it!

900 year old men memory issues. "I slept off and on at the foot of a tree, freezing." Her clothing was still torn something that he did. "and I would say you built the still last night, after you decided to try and slap me which is about the time Ieft" She was trying really hard not to sound hurt, or scared but it was hard she remembered that look in his eyes.

Arianna watched him. She didn't know how to act now, it was hard to be mad at someone who couldn't remember.

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

 

[Garith Darkhold]

Yes he finally look at [member="Arianna Darklighter"] when she slept at the foot of a tree, why would she do that. He about chocked on his whiskey when he had seen she was almost falling out of her shirt, then he almost chocked again after she said he almost slapped her last night. ‘This is why you can’t have nice things Yokuni!’

“I’m sorry”, he looked a little bit stunned, “Also what happened to your shirt?

 

[Arianna Organa]

She held her shirt up with her hand feeling exposed, should she tell him the truth or lie. Lieing wouldn't be good she'd have to maintain it and she was horrid at that. "I'm not sure we were arguing and you grabbed it"

She shrugged her shoulders, "I don't think we should have nights like that again." She looked at the still and wished she could blow it up. She looked at him, "I know you mean it when you say sorry." She just didn't know what else to say, "I need to find something to put on Garith" She half smiled at him and then headed inside. She began to think about all of this and what it meant, which she didn't know.

Did he have memory lapses, and if so what caused it, the rage? the whiskey? his age?

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

 

[Garith Darkhold]

Yes, well that was a lot to think about. The shirt got ripped when they had argued. Well it was her turn to get dressed while he talked to her. “Yes maybe I should have mentioned not to argue with me when I get worked up emotional, as in angry or panicked. There is a lot of rage inside of me and it is used to coming out and punishing those I’m in conflict with. Please next time when I get like that just let me pass and do what I have to do. When I get like that I tend to run over anything in my way.”

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

"Run over, yeah I'll say you were running over" Arianna was looking through his cabin for something to wear. "How did you get so much rage, I mean," She stepped out of the room to look at him. "I guess I have trouble understanding Garith." She stepped back inside some of this was more confusing that ever.

He's 900 plus years, he pushes people away, he chooses either to be bad or good, he has pent up anger issues, and conflict with him is not a good idea.

After finding a new shirt she slipped one off, and then into the other. She came out pulling it down, she moved closer to him she needed something she put her arms around him and then hugged him, she was scared and this was a lot to handle.

She stayed there for a moment sighed heavily and then moved away to find something to eat.

"I'm tired Garith, it really was a long night. Do you want to look at the ships hull today?"

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

 

[Garith Darkhold]

Yes he was a little taken back she wanted a hug after the night she had. Still after what he did or could have done he gave her the hug. She had earned it in his opinion. “Can I answer one question at a time please”, he laughed.

“You take it easy, we will take a look at the hull but it sounds like you had a long night. You’ve earned a little bit of a rest today. Now to answer some of your other questions you said or maybe thinking about. In another life time I had lived as a Sith. Anger is a common emotion for Sith to use. I had specialized in summoned that anger into great feets to absorb, deflect, and heal great amounts of damage. Also to manipulate my body to push my physical abilities beyond that of a normal man. Not to mention, you seen me use Force Lighting, summoning great amounts of energy with one purpose, to destroy. I had honed my skill to walk through a field of battle as if I was a tank over whelming my enemies with my sheer brutality summoned by my rage. I drink to subdue that beast. When I do not have a little bit of a buz and someone confronts me or I have a reason to be angry my mind snaps back to being that juggernaut. I’m sorry you had to witness that.”

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

She wanted the hug because of the night she had, human contact was a comfort and when you've had a time of it like this hugs were great. She knew what books told her about Sith and dammit she had to remember he read thoughts.

"I'm sorry I witnessed it to, I thought I could reason with you last night. You really scared me Garith and you know I wish you had told me about needing the alcohol before." She shook her head, "My stepfather didn't use it to control his anger he used it to fuel his anger and when all this happened I had flash backs of memories I'd rather never remember. Even though they were good to me there were times it was scary" She hugged herself this time.

A half laugh escaped. "By time this is all over you'll know more about me than anyone else in the galaxy, so I'll have to ask you to not tell anyone these things, please"

 

[Garith Darkhold]

You will know more about me then the entire galaxy...

It was his thought, you don’t want to really know, the real me. “Who would I tell, I am marooned on a uncharted planet after all”, he laughed, laughter was good, after all it help to heal the soul.

[member="Arianna Darklighter"]

 

[Arianna Organa]

"oh I'm sure the holo news will be by one day" She smiled, "I already know things about you that not many other people know." She looked at him as she headed for the door, she was ready to look at the hull.

"And who knows what else you'll reveal to me, you might talk in your sleep" She disappeared out the door they acted as if nothing had changed but had it? Was there something looming ahead to challenge them again.

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

 

[Garith Darkhold]

“Well I guess it is a good thing I do not sleep in the same bed as you”, he could tease her as well. “Good thing to what would the tabloids read if I did?”

Ok she wanted to look out side, so he followed.

[member="Arianna Darklighter"]

 

[Arianna Organa]

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

" I know right cause then you'd really know everything about me, and the tabloids would be parked outside your estate asking when you were going to see me again, think of that stalked by photographers." She was heading to stand at the back of the ship.

"What would you read in the tabloids let's see..........Ancient warrior takes up residence on peaceful Alderaan pick up tomorrows edition for the pictures" She didn't know what she was looking for, "then they'd get pictures of us and splash them together we'd be...hmm Garianna, or Arith... or some silly combo like that"

 

[Garith Darkhold]

Yes, well he was not sure what to say about all that. He did brush past her on the way out of the ship. His left hand slid over side, while he faced her, looked into her eyes, as he slipped on past and down the ramp that lead out side. “There will be some damage to the ship we should expect. We are pretty much only looking for what be serious damage.”

[member="Arianna Darklighter"]

 

[Arianna Organa]

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

Her gaze met his as he past her what was it between them. She half smiled unsure, "Serious damage, ok...so what's considered serious damage?" She looked at him did he mean big holes, little holes, scratches, or something else entirely.

For certain his ideas on things were different than her own, she wondered would they know each other minds better when this was done? Or would their fate be something else entirely.

 

[Garith Darkhold]

Did serious damage really sound like scratches and small holes? Yokuni again reminded himself that [member="Arianna Darklighter"] hardly got out that much and most likely had just about everyone else do things for her. “You will know when you see it”, he moved out of the ship, backing up taking the first look at the side he could see. The back of the ship looked fine. There was just minor scratches, nope he took a closer look at the engines. There was more the just blacked blast marks. There was clear damage that must have came from getting shot at and it must have been the reason why they had lost engine power and crashed. “There that will have to be repaired. Lets continue to look around the ship.”

 

[Arianna Organa]

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

Arianna followed and looked at the ship to see if anything looked out of the ordinary than what it would have looked like if it were sitting on the landing pad of the starport. She moved slowly so that she could look closely and then she saw the engines, the long black scorch marks were not there before that was more than just the firing of engines, she stepped closer to look there was an impact shot. "Garith, seems they hit us huh" She reached over unafraid that it was hot it had been a few days.

"Do you carry spare parts?" She knew that the ships on Alderaan did carry them but did Garith's she hoped so. for some of these parts were be very hard to make here on this uncharted planet. She kept walking along, "isn't that supposed to have like a fin or something for turning the ship?" Arianna pointed to where something looked sheared off.
