OOC:
I would like Havock or any other Command type to show up please~ This is going to be short, since I'm writing it while I'm at work during my break which I only have 15 minutes left of right now. So please excuse any suck that happens on this thread


"Rivvett, hold the course, yeah? There are some wicked strange noises coming from back there."

The droid locked it's manible like claws around the the joy stick of Jae's Redthorn the Renegade Ghost. The droid's optical lenses closed for a moment, then opened quickly after as it took in the sites through the view port, this woudl be the first tiem he would ever see the world where the Vast Empire had its base, this would be... the first time this particular droid ( yet another one built by Jae own bare hands ) would ever set foot where Jae had made her start.

"Ma'm-"

"What in the hells have I told you about that." The vocie was a bitter growl as Jae knelt by an opened panel in the steel siding of her home and hip, her arms elbow deep in the wirering.

The droid clicked and beeped, a surprised and almost apologetic sound. "S-sorry... Jae." It was a quick and precise correction on his part. "Why are we coming here?" The question had been begging to come out for days now, for the trip had been even longer than that. For months Rivvett had been along for the ride, only at teh age of five months build wise and only having and experience in Slicing or fixing what ever Jae had asked him to. Now, he had been dragged onto her ship and been taken on this journey that had lasted a month or more - he had lost count - and to a place he had never been.

"This... This is where my friends are."

"Friends, M'a- I mean, Jae?"

"Yeah..." Her voice lowered, as soft as a whisper now, her head down and staring at her greese covered hands, her right one shining as the light bounced off of the metalic surface of her auto-arm. "This is my home, Rivvett."

Now the droid was simply confused, lost and just trying to find answers, though he never took his optical lenses off of the view port as te world they approached came closer and closer. "Home?"

Silence filled the cabin, Jae's breathing so soft Rivvett had a hard time telling whether or not his creator was still alive. But a moment later he heard her move and within another moment Jae was at his side, hand up on the ledge of the view port, over hand on teh droid's shoulder, a smile - somethign that had been missing from her steel-blue eyed face for a long time - drifting across her thin lips.

"Yeah, Rivvett. Home."

OOC:
And lets just say they landed and are chilling in the hanger while Jae fixes up a couple things on her ship~

Okay I'll bite. Here's my epically short response lol. Sorry for that, was a busy night. But hey you definitely got my attention


A few troopers waved as she stomped through the halls and received only a grunt in response. Havock walked into the noisy hanger rubbing her eyes from the morning. She hated having to get up early and it showed. 

Usually these things were handled with a message waiting patiently for her to wake up, not this morning. Today she was woken up by the frantic voice of a deckhand on her private comm. Which also happened to be broadcast by her personal astromech droid, Al. She had made a hobby out of building or repairing droids and speeders. The practice kept her calm and gave her some measure of peace in the chaos that was her life.

“You called? I don't see a fire Private, so what's the emergency?” 

“Ma'am.” He jumped at the tone of her voice then quickly saluted. Her mind was a haze of cells searching in vane for caffeine.

She groaned at the whole display of decorum. “Fraking hell man, just get on with it.”

He quickly nodded and lowered his hand, then began tapping frantically on his datapad. “Captain, I am sorry to contact you so early, but we had an unauthorized landing on pad seven-B.”

Havock rubbed her forehead in frustration. Becoming Platoon Commander seemed to be a never-ending stream of paperwork and red tape. This was another example of one of the unfortunate side effects of her position. Being part of the chain of command meant that you got called at all hours for silly things like this.

“Okay so, have you run an ID check on the vessel?” If the young man hadn't followed at least the basic protocol before disturbing her rest there would likely be a beating in the hanger very shortly.

“Yes, it appears to be a Redthorn class transport, the Renegade Ghost. Its registered to...”

“The what?!” She grabbed the datapad out of his hands and started scanning the words displayed on the screen. She knew that ship, more importantly she knew who her captain was. Her mind was racing wondering why the ship was there now, where she had been, if something was wrong...

“Is it still there?”

“Oh yes, ma'am. Haven't noticed much movement out of the ship, the owner hasn't left yet. But the guys have heard several obscenities through the hull.” He smirked and looked away, trying not to smile fully at whatever he heard in front of his superior.

Havock tossed the datapad back at him without another word as she briskly walked away, heading for landing pad seven-B. She had no clue what to expect when she got there.
