Star Wars: A New Age
Ch 3: The Journey Begins
Revan was having a bad morning, he had just woken up, grabbed his few belongings and opened the door to leave his quarters when a Stink bomb fell down from his door frame and blew up in his face! Now he is late for the shuttle because he had to have a quick shower and get a new set of clothing so he wouldn't offend every person he passed.
"There you are!" Rayeda called to him with a grin as he approached.
"You set that didn't you!" Revan growled back at her but Rayeda just brushed him off and ushered him towards the waiting shuttle.
"No time for that, we don't want to keep the shuttle waiting even longer now do we?"
Revan just glared at her and huffed as he dropped down onto his seat.
"So where we headed first then grumpy head?" Rayeda asked Revan as she dropped into the seat next to Revan.
"First off we need a ship-" Revan started before Rayeda cut him off saying.
"No worries I have a Defender-class light corvette waiting for us in the station's docking bay."
"Well then, first we need to go pick up an old companion of mine, my tracking program tells me that he is in the Sigil system." At this Rayeda bolted upright.
"We can't go into Imperial territory! We are supposed to be deep under cover." Rayeda nearly screeched but just managed to keep her voice down to avoid arousing the suspicions of the other occupants of the shuttle.
"I get that but this has to be done."
"This someone had better be important to our cause."
"More than you could possibly know, now let's keep it down until we reach your ship, please?
"Fine." With that Revan and Rayeda didn't talk about much until they got off the shuttle and made their way into Rayeda's ship.
"C2 bring me a cup of Alderaanian tea please, T7 prepare the ship for departure, our new guest and I will be in the conference room." Rayeda rattled out as she made her way to the conference room of the ship with Revan close behind her.
"Alright now before we are going anywhere, you are going to tell me who this is we are going to rescue and why." Rayeda demanded.
"I see I have no choice in this matter so, we are going to find my likely disassembled companion HK-47 and in doing so he will help us either find and or take control of the Foundry." At this Rayeda almost fell over in shock.
"Ugh now I'm going to Save a Hunter-Killer droid and invade a Sith filled station which is capable of making endless amounts of any kind of droids or machinery, what has this world come too." Rayeda grumbled about this situation laid in front of her.
"I know you have doubts about this but trust me, my HK is extremely loyal to me and is a very competent fighter. As for the foundry, one we can't let the Sith use it against the Republic and two if I modify it just right it could be the answer to making a defence navy for Tython!"
"As much as I hate to say this, I can't deny how this could help. I hope I don't regret this, alright give me the coordinates to Sigil." Rayeda sighed as she took the datapad from Revan with Sigil's coordinates. "Alright, I'll punch these in and we'll be on our way, you can go and get settled in one of the rooms on the lower level and if you want get acquainted with the ship, I'll be in my room just across this hall if you need anything. Also I guess this is a bit late but welcome to my ship, the "Sentinel of the Future" With that Rayeda went to the bridge of the Sentinel to enter in the hyperspace coordinates for their destination and Revan made his way down to the lower level of the Sentinel to find a room.
As Rayeda finally put the Sentinel into hyperspace she sat down in the captain's chair and sighed wearily.
"Newcomer = Problem? Jedi – Newcomer = Solution!" T7-01 chirped at her. At that Rayeda laughed.
"I don't think that will be necessary T7 but it's good to know you're always looking out for me."
"T7-01 + Jedi = Partners!" T7 chirped as he wobbled happily.
Laughing Rayeda rubbed T7 on the top of his dome and said, "Aw, I love you too little guy. Well I need to go get prepared for what is sure to be a stressful mission, keep an eye on things for me here, will ya?"
"T7-01 + Orders = Results!" T7 chirped as he stopped wobbling in a feeble attempt to stand at attention.
Laughing once again at the antics of her beloved companion, Rayeda gave T7 one last pat and turned to head back to her room where she would spend the rest of her time in hyperspace maintaining her lightsabers, gear and meditating.
So what did you think? Please review all constructive criticism is welcome as is ideas for the story and any questions.
Now here are a few things that have come up from some PM's sent to me by a reader that could use some opinions on, so please review and tell me what you think.
The main characters in the story are going to probably be Revan, Rayeda, Anakin and Obi-Wan. Now for Obi-Wan I want to do a romance between him and Siri Tachi. As for Anakin I will probably keep the Padme and Anakin romance but if anyone has an idea for someone else, review and tell me and I will keep it in mind and see how it fits with my idea for the story. As for Revan I am leaning toward a no romance. I am instead looking at having Satele Shan play a larger part than I originally planned and having Revan and Satele developing their sort of almost Father, Daughter relationship. For Rayeda I am not sure if I want a romance at all, or an OC or some other character. A Rayeda X Mace Windu romance has been mentioned to me but I am not sure about that just because the prequel jedi won't come into contact with the new order for quite some time, and I plan on revising the new order's code to allow more emotion and compassion probably.
Now for the next bit after this Foundry and HK arc I will probably have Revan and Rayeda going around the galaxy preparing for creating their new order so any ideas for planets to go to and or ideas for what they should do are welcome. I currently plan on a trip to possibly; Voss, Rakata and Nar Shadda.
So please tell me what you think, Review, favorite, follow all of that good stuff :) thanks!
