Something Missing

[godzillama]

Darkslayer followed his master to the transport and took a seat.
As the ship prepared to launch, he got a very bad feeling.
"Master. I sense something bad is going to happen soon. Whether on this ship or on Hoth, I do not know."

[Backabuth]

Aiden nodded, agreeing with this other apprentice. "I feel it too, Master."

[Firestar]

Nightshiner felt it as well, the instant they boarded.
"We shall proceed cautiously. I sense there is nothing that will happen anytime soon. Either something will happen as we reach Hoth, or after we've landed. Either way, that give me enough time to think on it. Do not show your unease." With that, Nightshiner began to relax and meditated, concentrating on the source of his unease.

[godzillama]

Darkslayer followed his master's commands and took the small orb out of his pocket, which he used to move around with the force.
As his mind wandered, Darkslayer discovered that he couldn't recall his name.
For a while he thought until he finally remembered.
Malas Ralu. That was my name.
He found the fact that he couldn't recall his old name slightly disturbing. It felt like Malas Ralu was someone elses name and not his own, which also disturbed him.
He let none of this show on his face as he continued maneuvering the orb.

[Backabuth]

Aiden leaned back in his seat and studied Nightshiner's other apprentice. There seemed to be something off about him, as if he was fighting for a reason he knew not off. He suddenly realized he did not know his name. Aiden didn't particularly care for the boy, but he knew he should know his name. Just in case. Aiden touched his mind with the force, attracting the boy's attention. "What's your name?"

[godzillama]

Darkslayer was surprised by the other apprentice speaking to him.
"My name is Darkslayer." He said, not wanting to talk.

[Backabuth]

Aiden nodded, noticing Darkslayer's menacing look. "I'm Nightmare." He said softly, knowing the boy didn't care. Nobody did. But there wasn't time to worry about that, because the transporter they were in came to an abrupt stop, making Aiden lurch in his seat. He looked over at Nightshiner. "Master?"

[godzillama]

As the transporter stopped, Darkslayer dropped the orb. He dove to the floor and retrieved it.
What's going on? he wondered.

[Backabuth]

Aiden didn't wait for Nightshiner to answer. "Darkslayer! Come on! Let's check it out!" He took out his lightsaber, didn't activate it, and started moving down the aisle, past distressed and worried faces.

[godzillama]

Darkslayer silently agreed with Nightmare and followed him.
Nightshiner is testing us. That's why he's not helping us. I wonder if he caused the transport to stop? No. He wouldn't want to delay the flight. He wants to see what we'll do.
Darkslayer didn't know if he should tell Nightmare this. He didn't trust the new apprentice enough yet.

[Backabuth]

Aiden made his way up to the cockpit of the transporter, vaguely aware of Darkslayer following him. He peered in through the window and saw the pilot and co-pilot flicking switches everywhere with worried looks on there faces. Another man bustled about, checking papers on a desk over to Aiden's left. Aiden looked back at Darkslayer and nodded at him, activating his lightsaber. He silently cut a hole in the door, taking the circle he cut out and placing it down on the ground. He ducked into the hole and into the room, pushing the man at the desk into the wall and out of consciousness. The pilot continued flicking switches while the co-pilot looked back at Aiden and Darkslayer. "What are you doing back here?" He looked warily at Aiden's activated lightsaber. Aiden stepped forward, causing the co-pilot to flinch. "What's going on?" Aiden asked, lowering his voice. The pilot spoke without turning around. "We're not sure, it just kinda...stopped." Aiden looked over at Darkslayer, shrugging.

[godzillama]

It just stopped? I sense this has something to do with the force.
"Nightmare. I think that someone has used the force stop the transport, but it doesn't feel dark. A Jedi might have found us, and wants to stop us."
Darkslayer activated his lightsaber and left the cocpit (OOC:I know I spelled it wrong, but it says thingypit if you spell it right). He looked out one of the windows and saw another ship.
Who is in there?

[Backabuth]

Aiden followed Darkslayer over to the window, seeing the ship outside. "We need to get over there." He looked over at the co-pilot, who was still staring at them. "Do you have an emergency speeder or something?" The co-pilot hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Where is it?" The co-pilot walked over to the desk and brought out a piece of paper, which turned out to be a map. The co-pilot pointed at a spot on the map. Aiden took it and showed it to Darkslayer. "Come on, let's use the emergency speeder to get to that ship over there." He mockingly saluted the co-pilot and ducked through the hole so that he was back out in the aisle.
Once they got to the hangar, Aiden spotted the bright red speeder. "Two seater. Perfect." He murmured, climbing into the pilot's seat. He turned to Darkslayer. "You can drive next time." He smiled slightly, trying to break the ice between them.

[godzillama]

Darkslayer could tell that Nightmare wanted to end the tension between them.
"Look. We can become friends when you prove yourself in combat. Alright?" The Dark Jedi said rudely.
He couldn't help but think of his childhood. Darkslayer was surprised to find a longing to see Janasen again. A longing to live in his own home, free of any faction. A longing to lead a normal life.
Why did I join Nightshiner?
Misery and anger gripped Darkslayer. The feeling was so great that he could not hide it on his face.

[Backabuth]

Aiden noticed the look on his face but decided not to pursue the matter. That would only make things worse. "Alright, come on. Get in."
