Chapter 1: The Fall Of The Republic
All over the galaxy Jedi were being slaughtered by the order of Emperor Palpatine. On what looked like an odd jungle world the Twi'lek jedi tumbled to the ground on her belly from a blaster bolt to her hip and shoulder. She closed her eyes, a few tears sliding down her cheeks as the clone troopers stepped up......but did not fire Instead several dozen blaster bolts followed by the explosions of sonic and fragmentation grenades went off and a strong arm wrapped about her battered and injured body. The last thing she heard before everything went black was a male's voice "I got you General, my boys got us covered." Then a wave of pain hit her and she passed out.
Two weeks later.
The twi'lek groaned softly and rolled onto her side, when her eyes opened there sat a single human, He seemed to be sleeping as he sat in the chair, his arms folded lightly over his chest, but when Aayla sat up, his eyes snapped open and he shifted his head slightly to look at the Jedi, and a smile came to his lips and he spoke in a soft tenor. "Good morning Master Jedi. I was wondering when you would wake up. You were out of it for quite a while." Aayla pulled the simple hospital gown she was now wearing to examine the wound on her shoulder and then looked up at the man and spoke in a shy yet serious voice. "Thank you....I am sorry I do not know your name." The man grinned softly and stood up, going to a small table that contained a plate of food and he replied after he set it down before her. "I am Captain Tavin Banner. And your thanks are not necessary. We saved you because we thought it was a good idea which turned out to be a really good idea. Emperor Palpatine has turned the entire Republic agaisnt the Jedi order and decreed that all of you are to be hunted down and brought to his version of Justice. He has an apprentice too...his name is Darth Vader, though you most likely know him as Anakin Skywalker."
Aayla stared at the food on her tray as if dumb struck. It was inconceivable and when she looked up her voice was barely above a whisper as she asked fearing the answer. "Are all the Jedi dead?" Tavin looked down at the floor for a long moment and Aayla's heart leapt into her throat when he looked up at her and nodded and replied. " I went to the temple in the hopes of maybe finding the children Jedi that were there...I found them all in the Council Room...slain....Darth Vader was responsible....My men and I gathered up the bodies after General Kenobi and Master Yoda left to confront the two Sith Lords. I am sorry General Securra." Aayla shook her head as the tears began to well and again she asked. "Did anyone else survive?" Tavin only shrugged slightly and replied "I sent several of my shuttles out to the other planets that Jedi had been sent to take command of the Republic forces on...we have found Master Gallia's body along with Master Ki Adi Mundi....but have not had any other success." Aayla nodded and hugged her knees to her chest, suddenly the taste of food was bitter. As if understanding Tavin set the tray aside and sat down on the hospital bed looking at her as she cried silent tears.
Tavin looked down at his hand, biting his lip before looking up at her again and there was a half smile on his lips. "We did recover your lightsabre however." The Jedi did smile, but her eyes were slightly hollow, gently Tavin slid over and pulled her into his arms, and she melted into his arms, sobbing onto his shoulder and clutching at his jacket and beating on his cheast with her other hand as the sorrow and grief radiated out in waves. Tavin only held her until she was calm once again, and he gently let her go. Without a word the once again tired jedi laid down again mumbling out what sounded like "Stay" and went back to sleep. Stay he would, making himself comfortable once again he sat down on his chair as the jedi slept, and he grabbed his data pad, calling up what files on the Jedi were avalaible and began to skim through them. Come hell or high water he would find as many Jedi alive as possible. And if not....he would help Aayla Seccura's life as comfortable as possible. And no Sith Lord nor his Master would stop him from doing so.
When Aayla awoke it was to darkness, and for one blinding moment she thought that Tavin had betrayed her until she felt around and realized that she was still in the same bed she had woken up in the first time. She calmed herself slowly and reached out with the Force through thedarkness, and smiled to herself when she felt his presence on the other side of the room in the other bed. He had stayed and that for her was absurdly endearing.. Blindly she gropped about until her hands came down upon what felt like a table, and she slipped out of the bed, using the table as a guide until she found the light panal and flipped it, turning on low light, and she looked around, slowly nothing that her clothes had been mended and cleaned, and her lightsabre was set beside, again she felt the tug of grief at the lost of so many brothers and sisters and the many masters she had looked up to and respected. "NO! I will not let this haunt me, I will move on. The Jedi may be finished, but that does not stop me from making something out of my life.....Tavin saved me and I owe him a debt I do not know how I will even begin to repay."
Inside the door seemed to be a refresh and a shower to the side of it and she smiled looking over to her clothes she reached out with her hand Manipulating the Force to call them too her. Gripping her clothes in one hand she stepped into the refresher, closing the door and locking it, she set her clothes down upon the sink and her boots atop her clothes, and shed the hospital gown. Nude she stepped into the shower and pressed two of the activation keys that sprayed out the warm water from the nozzle above and she leaned against the showers wall as water sluiced down her body and she began to think of what to do next. She stood up straight, running her fingers thoughtfully over one of her brain tails as the water beat down on her batter and bruised blue skin. Maybe she would join with this Tavin Banner and his crew, make a life for herself out of all this mess. She pushed all the thoughts out of her mind and closed her eyes, concentrating on getting clean.
Back in the bedroom, Tavin sat up groggily and looked around, noting that Aayla was in her bed....wait not in her bed?! His hand immidiatly went to his side and he cursed himself because he did not have his blaster holstered there. When he heard the running water in the refresher station he relaxed. She must be taking a shower and assessing her wounds and the like, Tavin swung off the bed and pulled on his boots, writing something down on his data pad which he left on her bed, then fired up his comlink ordering up some food for her then he left a soft smile touching his lips as he went to see about their hyperspace coordinates.
When Aayla stepped out of the refresher, cleaned and dressed there was a still hot meal sitting on her table and the datapad sat upon her bed. Cruious she lifted up the datapad and looked about for the human before looking at what was left on the pad.
It reads as follows: "Master Securra, I am sure if you are reading this then you have finished your shower and are about to sit down to the dinner I ordered brought to you. I had to leave because I cannot ignore my duties as Captain and am currently working with my nav officer to get us after the most common hyperspace routes and go to Kuat for a few days to see some of my family. You are more than welcome to join me along with my crew in this little bit of shore leave. A word of caution: Do not under have your lightsabre out in the open while we are on the ground and keep your Force usage to a bare minimum. You are still hunted and the Republic...now known as the Galactic Empire will have an eyeout for you and any of your suviving brethren. Now, once you have eaten and feel you are fit to move around one of my men will guide you to the bridge and I will be able to give you a tour about my ship. Now I will just shut up and let you enjoy your meal.
Tavin Banner
The twi'lek grinned to herself and set the datapad aside and eyed the meal of spiced Nerf and a few tubers, along with a steaming cup of caff. The aroma of the food had her stomach growling loud enough to remind her that she hadn't eaten the day before. she shook her head and sat down at the table and did indeed eat ever last bit, washing it down with the caff, and thanking The Force that she was alive now. Once she had finished she leaned back in her chair, eyeing the datapad for a long moment before she got up, and walked to the door.
The gaurd there eyed the Twi'lek that stepped out of the room, and the lightsabre attached to her belt, then motioned for her to follow him then he spoke. "Tavin has asked me to take you down to the bridge Master Jedi and---" Aayla cut the gaurd off with a wave of her hand. "I am not a Jedi anymore sir. For my sake and the sake of others...please just call me Aayla." the gaurdsmen nodded slightly and replied "Alright Aayla, anyways Captain Banner has asked me to take you down to the bridge. For the record My name is Sorin Kain. I am sure you will be meeting others of the crew later at some date." Aayla nodded and fell into step beside Sorin as he lead her through the corridors of the ship they were on, passing many crewmen who saluted the gaurdsmen. Once they reached the bridge Sorin went to Tavin, who was looking over a diagnostic on his ship, and tapped him on the shoulder before whispering something into Captains ear. The man nodded and stood and turned to the Jedi, holding his arms out wide as he spoke. "Welcome aboard the Marauder Corvet: Idiot's Array.
