MOTHER

Skye ran down from the roof to Benna. "Two targets approaching the village, I think it is your Jedi friends though they look in pretty rough shape."

Lindrala looks to the village feeling exhausted... "There Oyo we are almost there."

Oyo steps into the village, sighting crashed imperial skyhooper where the smoke is coming from, and remains of the droids and imperial forces. "What happened here?"

"Target practise. What happend to you? Look at yourselves, you look like shit." Benna tilts her eyes across Lindrala. "Your hand... What happend?" Benna goes assist Lindrala. "We picked up a guide and a second life" Looks at Skye as she says it. "But right now you need to rest".

Skye steps forward from behind Benna, "Imperials happened... Then they died." Skye stands there triumphantly gripping her sniper rifle.

As Benna moves to aid Lin she staggers almost collapsing into her arms but manages to regain her balance. "Zannah... Zannah betrayed us, when I got to the cave Oyo was unconscious, Karliah and the mother were no where to be seen, Zannah said she watched Karliah die, the grief and anger consumed her. I tried to stop her but she would not stop, she is dead Benna."

Seeing Benna aiding Lin and watching Lindrala struggle Skye decides to help as well, she moves closer to Lin looking her in the eyes for a moment, she grabs hold of her from the other side to Benna and helps her stay steady as they proceed in to the village.

As Skye and Lin make eye contact Lindrala said quietly. "You, I know you... I have seen you before." Lin starts to feel herself slipping unconscious suffering from the wound and exhaustion. "Your eyes, I have seen them before..." Lindrala falls unconscious.

Skye says nothing back to her, as Lindrala falls unconscious she continues to help Benna hold her up as they carry her to a safe place. "Hey Aya, I think your master here needs some of your Jedi treatment."

The safe place was a villager house where Aya was tending others. Lindrala was placed on the empty bed, between the two beds where Ochra and Axo are laying. That is three crew members now not capable to continue the mission.

Aya leaves kitchen to answer Skye's call. As she enters the room with her patients, she sees that Lindrala was one of them, and that her arm was missing. Aya stops for a moment freezing in the spot with her hands on her heart, as she process these bad news. She sobers up quickly and continues towards Lindrala to performs basic survey. "Please leave us alone I need more room. Everybody, out!"

Influence Lost -5: Aya, Benna, Skye

The fact that Oyo faced one of the most dangerous foes this crew ever faced, and nobody cared to even ask him how is he, Oyo did not take it well. It seems that every new pickup they find on street has more value than someone who risk his life for them and for the galaxy. Oyo helps himself and simply leaves for the kitchen to find some food, he was starving.

Skye looks at Aya and gives a quick nod, she glances at Benna before quickly moving back outside of the house. She looks around and waits outside near by.

Influence: Aya +20

Finally some rest… Ochra feels like ran over by a hoover tank. With a glimpse of her eyes she catches the people around her and remembers the room. Her house, she has built in the last years; her furniture she has found and collect, her medical station next to her laboratory, her tinker-room. She feels secure the first time since the crazy incidents have started. Her torso hurts, but she feels how her lungs got filled with oxygen and with every breath new power flows into her wounded body. She suddenly moves her head, her eyes found Aya and overcoming all pain she starts to whisper: “Hey, little Jedi-girl! Thanks for your magic. I’m in your debt now. Can you give me something to drink?” In this moment, a reflex shock full of anxiety pulses through her body. ‘What happened with my legs? Why I can’t move them? Damn it!!’ Her voice is getting louder, it’s not a whisper anymore – Ochras words are now whimpering cries: “My legs, I can’t move my damn legs!”

Benna moves outside and joins Skye. "This is mission is like a giant cronical headache. I hope the pay is at least flexible."

Skye chuckles. "I can see that your crew is in over it's head, It seems the Jedi often lead themselves and others into bad situations such as this... Personally I am not here for the credits, I find the success of a mission to be it's own reward at time."

Aya takes Lindrala's arm and starts channeling the healing energy to help her recover. Her concentration starts building up as people start leaving the room. "I wish I was with you, I could have probably prevent this, master. Wait, what is that noise?" Aya opens one eye, and when Ochra starts to cry, she opens them both. "I am here I am here!" Aya finishes healing Lindrala and moves up to Ochra. "Let me see what can I do. Everything will be fine." At least Ochra had her legs, did not lose them like Lindrala lost her hand. Maybe Aya still has chance to heal Ochra. With hope in her eyes, she starts conjuring healing energies from the Force, and channels them to Ochra's legs.

Lindrala breaths in relief as Aya channels powerful healing force into her, the pain of her wound passes though her hand is still gone. The sensation was strange but she was not afraid. She could hear Aya's words. Lin's eyes slowly flicker open as she looks up at the roof. Suddenly noise from the room returns to her and Lindrala hears Ochra struggling. Lindrala slowly sits up and watches as her brave padawan continues trying to help, she cannot help but smile seeing her like this.

Ochra, now fully conscious, feels Ayas energy flowing into every vein of her, a tickling move up to her spine and after an eternity she can feel how her legs are getting feeling back. It’s like sitting in the wet. Her muscles are like gum and her skin is sensitive now like she has burning wounds all over. Ochra does not know if she should laugh or whine – but overall the most dominating emotion is happiness. It will take time for her limbs to get strength again, but deep inside she knows, that she will recover. „Thank you, Aya! Even if I can’t walk in the near future, I hope I can help you further. Even if my hacking-tool work that great like last time…” She sights. „I still have the maps of the mountain and if you help me moving I can repair your ship possibly.” She looks to Axo. „Whats up with him? Have you tried a System-Restore?”

Aya smiles once she sees improvement in Ochra's recovery. "I do not know anything about Axo. I did what I can for it but it needs a mech for repair. I know nothing of this machine person nor how to get it to move."

"I will take a look, when I am a little stronger." Ochra answers. "Whhhooo, I think, I need a break now. Uuuh, who are these two there? I think, the woman needs your great help too. Is she another of your order?" Ochra takes a look in the Jedi's direction: "Hello, Lady! I see, that you are wounded as well! You partner her is really a great healer. But you will need my help more. In my tinker-room I have some mechanics to repair your hand. But please, give me some time..." With the last words her thorax falls back to the camp bed. "Ouch, I'm really crushed!"

Lindrala chuckles. "I... Would appreciate that, I am Master Lindrala Nightingale." Lin slowly rises to her feet. "I see Benna wasted no time in finding new allies, who might you be?"

"Uuh, this mess of a woman is Ochra, to your service, Master Jedi! I wish, we had met under better circumstances! But you know, life and the ways it goes..." Ochra sighs again. "I'm the local tinker, droid repairer and a woman of some unusual specialties. I hope we get better acquainted soon. Your Benna is of the unfriendly, herb kind... but good under stress. I wish, i could help you better, but I'm feeling dizzy right now. But I promise you, I will do something for your hand."

Lin smiles at Orcha, "That's quite alright it is a pleasure to meet you Orcha, for now you should rest, I look forward to seeing your skills later when you are recovered." Lindrala turns to Aya and places her hand on her shoulder. "I thank you Aya, your healing abilites are far more advanced than any padawan I have seen you must of also shown strength and will to get this far, I shall be informing Master Satele of your strong potential when we free her from Jadus."

Influence Gained: Lindrala +5

Aya nods to Ochra and then blinks at Lindrala: "Thank you Master. It is good to know, well to be reminded as well, that having me instead of Master Syo did not turn out that bad after all. I will do what I can to aid our crew in success of our mission. But I need to take some rest now myself, this was a long day." Aya steps away from Lindrala and stops for a moment, turning towards her again: "I am glad that you made your way back to us alive. I don't know what would I do here without you." Aya nods to Lindrala, and those were her final words to this conversation. She ends it with a warm smile, and then leaves the room, and her patients to rest.
