*Adonias gave the sith a short nod, an evil grin lighting his face.*
“Yes, my master. I am ready.”

Darth Strife:
The sith nodded solemnly at his apprentice before rolling his eyes. "Well, fix the ship then. We can't go flying around with it in this condition. After that, we can track her down. I have contacts scattered throughout the outer rim so if she is close by, we'll know." Darth Strife strode off, muttering about destructive protégés as he went. Once in the pilot chair, he sat down and his fingers were a blur as he typed out a few messages to send to nearby allies. He had tried to retain his feelers in the galaxies even as he remained ensconced within his base on Dathomir. If Crystal was close by, they would know shortly.

*The young man grinned almost proudly as he admired his handiwork. After grabbing a hammer, hydrospanner, a blow torch, and some patch sealant, he went about making the cell space worthy again. When he was finished, Adonias joined Darth Strife in the cockpit.*
“We should play the father and son scenario when we catch up with Crystal. I really want to screw with her mind before I finish her.., father.” The young man snickered in dark amusement before strapping himself in.

Darth Strife:
He grinned in wry amusement. Adonias was starting to grow on him, even if he never shut up. That dark humor though, it was rare. He felt a glimmer of pride, hopeful that he had helped instill that in the boy. "Agreed. She is a simple girl and that will through her off. It will make it easy to finish her and grant us some amusement while doing so. Now, ready yourself. A contact has informed me that she landed on Tattoine. The contact wasn't sure which city but I am confident we will find her. There are only so many places she can hide. Let us move, it is time to hunt, my son." Darth strife chuckled darkly and flipped the necessary switches on the control panel in order to have the ship 'Shade' slowly lift from the ground.

“Even though I am ready to face her, I need to ask something serious of you, master. How do I meditate?”
*He scratched the back of his neck, feeling both embarrassed and ashamed as he finally admitted the truth.*
“Last time you told me to, I didn’t. Only because I don’t know...”

Darth Strife:
For a moment, Adonias' words stunned him. He couldn't remember a time when he hadn't meditated so to be told someone does not know how simply astonished him. He blew out a deep breath, keeping his frustration at bay. "First, you must get comfortable. For me that involves sitting cross legged on my bunk. But I have seen some go so far as to hang from a tree branch as that is what they need." The sith rolled his eyes at the thought. "Hopefully you're method of comfort won't be as complicated. Once you are comfortable and have your eyes closed, focus on one thing. That thing may be the future, the past, a memory; regardless just focus on it. As you focus, breath in and out. Feel the force rippling through your body as you breath and allow it to wash over you as you focus." Darth Strife focused on the ship once more. "That's enough to start with, there is so much more to it than that, but if you have never meditated, start with what I just described." With those words, Darth Strife moved the ship into Dagobah's open orbit.

*As the ship headed into orbit, Adonias leaned back in his seat and focused his breathing. He successfully meditated a good ten minutes before he fell asleep again...*

Stepping from where she'd been trapped Morrigan now stood. In a meter of the darkest water she'd ever seen. She muttered -Morrigan- "Did mom hate my guts?" Her inner voice said ' Correction, she hated all four of you.' That made her angry. At herself. Brows dropping she murmured -Morrigan- "Sorry mom...." Abstracting herself from said hole she looked around her with wide eyes -Morrigan- "Rustic...." She felt alive....

Alem and Gid, pistols in hands, held up by their cheeks, moved fast but carefully over the swampy terrain. Both girls swept the jungle. And their she was. With some bizarre looking bird just sitting on her left shoulder -Gid- "You do realize that some thing is sitting on you?" Alem giggled and Shakk indignantly replied -Gid- "He's not a thing; this is my friend Oscar." Both of the others rolled their eyes - Gid- "Ok Shakk...." One very basic fact but key to the possibility of Twi'leck thriving on Dagobah was diet. And the more that she explored the planet this fact impressed Gid. As Shakk returned her sister asked -Alem- "Dinner?" Eyes creasing -Shakk- "Gid! Alem wants to eat Oscar!" To which Gid added -Gid- "Isn't that what you got it for?" Shakk screamed indignantly -Shakk- "He's not an it! He's Oscar!" And she ran off. Shrugging Gid yelled - Gid- "Try not and get ate and be back to the crash site before dark." The pair laughed hysterically as they made their way back to the crash site. Neither of the two seemed to notice, it they even knew that Oscar as a jubba bird, a rare species native to Dagobah, that possessed natural ability to manipulate the Force. Of course, chances were exceptionally high that Shakk hadn't the foggiest of this attribute of her new bird friend's species. Past that, and their laughter having died down, Alem asked -Alem- "Did you feel something in that little... hut/escape old thingie?" Her sister laughed - Gid- "Did I; whatever was in their was freakishly strong." Alem nodded and both spoke at once -Gid & Alem- "We sleep in the ship." Several seconds later Alem asked -Alem- "What about Shakk?" Gid snapped back -Gid- "Though she was sleeping in the swamp with that bird thing of hers." And both began laughing - again

Shakk was lucky. Lucky in many ways for being what she was. Indeed, the Dagobah terrain rich with a wide variety of diverse and edible creatures was in many respects Twi'leck paradise. That noted, Shakk did not suffer for lack of food. She wandered the swampy terrain in wonder. The planet was truly beautiful, so Shakk thought. Smacking a fly on her leg, then another she shrugged. Every paradise has some faws so she thought And that was how she came upon the bird. As she crept through the boggy domain Shakk heard the song of birds a plenty. Was almost hypnotic the melody was so pleasing. Her new pet, whom she named Oscar, was one of these animals. A Jubba bird. The reptivian, native to Dagobah, was prized by many on account of the animals unique connection with The Force but the girl was not aware of that attribute. He looked neat so she fed the animal. And his singing was so captivating that she kept feeding him in order to keep the bird near. They quickly formed an attachment (The girl was unaware that The Force was at work here and that two shared a unique bond) She had bumped into her sisters but that was a brief not overly pleasing meeting. The little house that they had found came back to haunt her quite sporadically. Who lived there? For now long? And why? It troubled her deeply. The one conclusion that Shakk came to was this: That place was somebody's home. Making short of the long, some bizarre urge, most powerful indeed, filled her unknowingly. That And guilt led the girl back towards the wreck

OoC: Theoretically the three Twi'leck did not crash on top of Yoda's little refuge. For that reason from here on they will be posting their own wreck on Dagobah terrain BiC: With her new friend Oscar in toe flying above, Shakk followed Alem and they found their way back to their own vessel. The two entered and fast fell asleep High above Oscar, the Jubba bird, flew circling the Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft where the three Twi'leck slept. Now, the Jubba bird is considered to be a non-sentient being but their definition of the term sentient could be brought to question. That noted, the bird cruised the air above the ship guarding his new found friend

Sitting precariously, what given that they now sat mired in a swamp, the three Twi'leck felt an odd - how does on day it? Yes! Sanctuary. All three enjoyed a sanctuary in this desolate lonely planet. Circling the solar entity Dalo, the planet distinctly isolated position indeed. But seclusion was only the beginning of the reasons that so scarce few of many set foot on the surface of Dagobah. The natural environment of Dagobah of course did not make it a very inviting place to consider for colonization And once on the planet one had to contend with the creatures that called the forbidding rock their home. Perhaps the most easily isolated example was the Dagobah Python. The bizarre monstrously giant was said to able to shallow other creatures 15 times the weight of the beast itself, a feat in elasticity that is one of the numerous outrageous features of this universe. And one of these creatures lie in wait but 20 feet from The Hand Maid Tail

Towering up from the jungle canopy at it's roots were the massive Gnarltree, and as their name would suggest they were known for a massive twisted at root system at their base. These were so pronounced that the dwelling the girls had found relied on such to form the edifice, capable of housing a small man. These giant trees dominated the surface of the murky swamp and and offered a home to many wildlife. The giant python, for example enjoyed lurking in the small caverns created by the tree roots Dragonsnakes, among other creatures, too made there homes in the foot systems of Gnarltrees Higher up the trees housed many a species, notable among these being the very territorial bogwings, an bat-like reptavian species with great strength. And so on and so forth on down the line. A multitude of different snake species, lizards, such as the insect eating Sleen. And running smoothly off the last entry, insects galore called the planet home. Bottom line was that the native creatures of Dagobah made inhabiting the planet a less than desirable business There is no evidence that any humanoid species so much as tried to settle on Dagobah. Although this cannot be said conclusively, we can assume that no natural resources of note have been found to exist here. Still, considering the bleak living conditions offered by the planet for not foster much it any mining expeditions. In short out three Twi'leck found one sweet place to be if one wished to live in solitude Thank you kind reader for indulging my dry, be it somewhat necessary, little interlude describing the makeup of Dagobah. We will try to make such as brief as possible and only when necessary. Now back to the ongoing tragic comedy that is the lives of the Twi'leck Three

A banner now stood in the dense jungle of Dagobah Tale of the Twi'leck Three AN LUCHT SIUIL DHIUBH In front of the marking stood Shakk smiling proud. She felt the smack on the right side of her head -Shakk- "What was that for?" Her sister responded -Alem- "Just a wake up call; you seemed stunned." The bigger Twi'leck walked away, as did Shakk after taking another look. The girl looked up but no Oscar. He'd been gone all day. And like magic the Jubba bird appeared, settling down on the roof of their ship. Still tuning where she'd been hit but ALem the woman muttered -Shakk- "Wierd connection we got...."

The old warhorse Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft, Hand Maid Tail sat dormant mired in the muck. Kneeling down at the ship's side Gid toiled over a small fire pit that she'd made. Now settled down to burning red hot embers she threw in sage, cedar and tobacco, speaking soft as it to was consumed. Smoke bellowed from the pit and first gently ding herself she then directed the mist to the four corners of the wind. Settling back down to sitting on her calves the woman commenced the low melodious petition once more. It was then that Shakk noticed that Oscar was now sitting on her sinister shoulder. This encouraged the young woman, so she asked quite yet distinct -Shakk- "Maybe we should do that for The Survivor." Using the matronymic that they'd placed on whoever had lived in the humble yet wisely built shelter near them. Gid actually smiled. Standing to her feet she collected the sacred items, which she wrapped up in a piece of deer hide and tied it neatly with a nice string. Her coals sat in a deep clay pot with a steel swinging handle. With a heavy glove she lifted this from the ring of stones. Giving the fire pit a second look she spoke -Gid- "Let's go."

Several meters from the girls Alem had an 80lbs lbs punching bag hanging from a gnarltree. Now, watching a person who knows what they are doing hit a punching bag is a sight. But watching some work the bag is arresting. Such was Alem. Snapping punches off she lifted the bag as the chain rattled. SNAP! SNAP!SNAP!SNAP! Then stepping back only to come in again. Breaking timed she never sat; the woman never stayed still. And there she was, just the bag, herself and everything else did not exist for a time

By the time Shakk and Gid returned Alem was finished. Casually one asked -Shakk- "Did you ever notice that Alem leaves a dent in that thing?" Gid only nodded -Shakk- "Is that normal?" Gid laughed. Shakk laughed. Then both noticed that it was 4:30 Dagobah standard time and went to their wreck of a ship and passed out immediately

Gid popped her left eyelid open.... Blurry. Right eyelid too. Vision coming into focus she read the clock. 7:45.... AM. Slipping pistol from side table Gid shot the clock. One sister asked -Beyond could you turn off the Holonet?& Eyes rolling Gid responded -Gid- "Go to sleep!" Both girls drifted back into lala land

The sound of aheated verbal exchange tore Shakk from the Darkness of sleep. The only place that she found true peace. Shaking head she listened. Her sisters were fighting! No Rubbing sleet from eyes she sat up. She could hear them -Alem- "Gotta admit that both the Sith and Jedi have their failings...." Shakk wondered about that. Alem was not wrong, so Shakk believed. Whilst pulling on a t-shirt Shakk listened closer -Gid- "You speak the truth." And as the thin blue Twi'leck pulled on a pair of jeans then shoulder holster, guns, knives and saber. Walking out the smell of coffee rose up to greet her. We the intoxicating fragrance made her desperately want the other two sisters spoke -Gid& Alem- "Bearlachas!" As she made her way to the pot the blue girl spoke -Shakk- "Dia dhaoibh ar maiden...." Smiling God responded - Gid- "My aren't we a bit trim and proper this morn!" Nodding the other chimed in -Alem- "Wee bit solemn this morn there Shakk." To that Shakk mumbled incoherently then looking up eyes filled with terror she cried out -Shakk- "Oscar!!!" Hitting a switch the hanger dropped

Running out of the ship Shakk looked about frantically. And there he was sitting stop on the branch of a Gnarltree Dirty purple body and tail contrasting against full yellowish wings. In a voice of terror she howled -Shakk- "Oscar!!! Tar ansin chugam anois!!!" The bird twitched then looking down His long serrated beam with yellow eyes he took flight. And there he was sitting on the roof of the ship. M-3PO now stood at the side of the ship talking with Alem. Shakk tossed a piece of bread at the bird, which he deftly caught. Walking past Gid she commented -Shakk- "Always thought that we were neither." He sister nodded without a word
