Boring Days and Vengeful Attitudes

Disclaimer: I have NEVER owned star wars.

Nihilus groaned for quite possibly the hundredth time that day, the ship had gone quiet for months and not a single shenanigan had spiced up the summer months for him and his crew. The fact of the matter was, Modern Warfare multiplayer had been going stale lately and not even Visas could think of anything to do in the months of silence that had stricken the Ravager. "My lord, are you alright?" Visas' question made him exhale and bring his fingers to his temples.

"Visas, how long has it been since anyone on this ship has had a speck of fun?" Visas seemed to think for a moment before replying with a tinge of sadness, "I believe it's been two months since that massive reactor explosion, hey wait!" she eyed Nihilus sharply, "The reactor exploded and you thought it was fun? We almost got killed!"

Nihilus shrugged meekly under Visas' annoyed glare and said, "Okay so the reactor exploding wasn't the best thing but atleast something happened, and it's not my fault hot sauce fell into the reactor."

"Nihilus I saw you throw it in their on a dare," Visas said flatly.

"Oh yeah, Er, right I forgot that you were hanging with the technicians down their," he chuckled nervously, "um sorry?" if Visas had eyes she would've rolled them as Nihilus shrunk back deeper into the couch he was sitting on, a weak smile on his face. "Erm, Visas please don't kill me."

Once again, if Visas had eyes she would've rolled them once again and said, "Nihilus can you please stop cowering, it's making me question your masculinity."

Nihilus blinked, "My what?" Visas' lips twitch into a half smile of amusement at Nihilus' genuine confusion at the word.

"Nihilus," she attempted to clarify, "I was referring to your-"

"It's not that small," Nihilus shrieked suddenly before clamping his hands over his mouth in a late attempt to keep him from blurting out what he had just said. Visas meanwhile had frozen with her jaw slack, utterly dumbfounded by Nihilus sudden outburst. "Nihilus," she forced out, "that was not what I was referring to."

Nihilus winced and reached up a hand to pull his cowl over his head in a vain attempt to hide his contrasting pink cheeks. It was no use, Visas could have seen Nihilus' blush from a mile away. Their was a very awkward silence with Visas attempting to formulate what she should say in her head while Nihilus worked furiously to get the blush off his face. He was failing miserably of course, but it didn't stop him from trying. "Oh force, I really wish something would get me out of this mess." Well it seemed as though the force was on his side that day because after over a full minute of awkward silence the entire ship quaked as something very big and very hard slammed into the hull.

The sudden quake made Visas jump and Nihilus, true to form, collapse out of the couch and onto durasteel floor. He was surprisingly quick to recover, as he stumbled to his feet while the hull shook with repeated hits and a loud voice blared over the speakers, "Nihilus get up here now or we are all going to, you know, DIE!" Nihilus scowled and glared at nothing at all before sprinting out of his room before Visas could say a word. And as Nihilus sprinted past the many rushing crew members of his ship he attempted to ignore the burning in his core.

Visas was attempting to push through the crowded halls of the Ravager after Nihilus, the halls being crowded to the maximum capacity with rushing, bustling crew members rushing to their stations when Nihilus' extremely loud voice came roaring over the com system, "To all crew, we have dropped out of hyperspace into an ASTEROID FIELD!" Visas could have sworn she heard Nihilus mutter under his breath, "damn home depot junkies," before he continued, "Could Visas Marr please come up to the bridge so we don't all crash!" almost immediately, the entirety of the chaos stopped and all of the crew members slowed and parted like a queen through an aisle of honor guards. She said a quick thank you before running quickly down the hall, using the force to speed up her pace.

She quickly arrived at the lift and entered, shifting to keep her balance as the hull took repeated blows from what she could assume were not small asteroids. She was running as soon as the doors opened and she was at the doors of the bridge in seconds. The doors opened as soon as it detected her and opened automatically. Outside, she could see out side the massive windows completely covering the north wall hundreds of asteroids were clashing and rocketing towards the ship only for them to suddenly explode and vaporize as the ship's turbo and quadlasers erased them from view, but they were soon replaced by dozens more.

Nihilus was pacing furiously and cursing just as if not more furiously than the exploding asteroids outside. "Those goddamn home depot sons a bitches!"He raved vehemently as the ship was wracked with yet more quakes, "those incompetent, blundering imbeciles gave us the wrong star charts and now we're fuc. . ."

"Nihilus," she interrupted, "you can rant later, but we need to get out of this asteroid field before the hull gives way."

Nihilus scowled and turned to her, "fine, I brought you up here so you could hopefully help me form a plan, and we don't all die in an explosion." Visas cocked her head to the right slightly, remembering his earlier statement, "Home Depot sold you faulty star charts?"

"Not helping Visas, it's really not."

"Well Nihilus, what do you suggest we do?" she put her hands on her hips and attempted not to fall from the quakes, "we're stuck in an asteroid field with no end in sight."

"There are too many asteroids," he muttered, "We don't have enough fire power."

"Can we jump to hyperspace?" Visas asked.

"Not enough space ma'am," Captain Ryos said stepping forward, "we'll crash into a rock the moment we try."

"Well then, we're going to have to find a space in the rocks so we can get enough space to jump to hyperspace."

"It's too dangerous," Ryos said, his lips turning into a thin line.

"It's the only choice," Nihilus snapped, "we'll never get through the asteroid field intact, we need to make the jump."

"But sir. . ." Ryos began to protest.

"No BUTS!" Nihilus hissed, while Visas took a step back in surprise. Nihilus' visible anger and frustration was completely out of character. Even under this much pressure, Nihilus would still be making some kind of meek wisecrack. But Nihilus' sudden personality change scared her slightly. Nihilus didn't seem to notice her unnerved state and pointed viciously at the chart coordinator, "You! Go into hyperspace on my mark!" the man nodded vigorously and typed in the coordinates furiously before looking at Nihilus expectantly.

Nihilus' eyes narrowed, as if reaching out, concentrating and raised three fingers. Slowly, he curled in a single finger, then another before he pivoted and barked, "NOW!" the coordinator pulled the lever back, the stars and space itself warped and straightened into the lines as they entered the cavernous tunnel of hyper space. The ship shook as its weakened plating attempted to hold itself together at the intense speed. Visas breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Nihilus expectantly, waiting for the wisecrack that was bound to come out of his mouth. But it never came, instead he looked out at the tunnel of hyperspace on for a moment before growling and turning on his heel and walking away without a word.

Visas gulped, yeah, something was diffidently wrong. Nihilus was too vehement, too rageful and with not a speck of humor. And as she looked at Ryos' grim face, she shivered.

Yeah, something was diffidently wrong.

A/N: now I know it's been while but this one is extra long just for you guys. And yes I will be writing a sequel to this for your enjoyment. Thank you! This is also a lot less humorous than my other stories, which I was kind of going for here. Sorry if it caught you off guard or anything. Also, thank you to EnvyXKimbley4ever for the great reviews!
