Chapter 4

Bane commandeered some of the pieces needed to repair his ship from M'Beg's hanger. He did not have the time to look around for another vendor, not that he cares to. Bane just grabbed what he could and started loading parts into his ship.

"Todo, burn this lock off my landing gear so we can leave" Bane snapped as he went to the location of the tracker that Obi-Wan placed earlier and stated to remove it. After it was removed Bane placed the tracking device in one of M'Beg's create shipments.

That should keep the Jedi busy for a while.

After inspecting the ship, it turns out Nova has already completed most of the major repairs that allows the ship to take off, though it may not look pretty. Bane started up the ramp again and saw Nova starting to exit. She looked like shit, she was somehow still standing favoring her right side and extremely pale.

"Go sit down" Bane said sounding annoyed.

"But the ship, you need help" Nova whispered.

"No, I don't, your just going to get more blood on my floor. Go sit down, I'm not asking" Bane said as he brushed past her to the cockpit. He needed to get this ship in the air before M'Beg gets any ideas and comes back to the hanger. Last thing he wanted to do was babysit. Nova must have done what he had asked because she did not return to the front of the ship once they made it back into space.

"Todo"

"Yes Bane?"

"Go check on the girl and patch her up. Make it fast I am going to need a co piolet to fly this ship until we finish repairs."

"I'm on it" Todo hovered away towards Nova's direction

Her eyes felt heavy, she was so tired, maybe she should just lie down. Nova started to feel herself fall asleep that was until she felt a jab in her side. It was Todo's mental fingers poking her awake.

"Miss Nova, I am going to need you to stay awake for just a bit longer so I may help heal you".

"But I'm tired, can I sleep first?" Nova felt her eyes starting to get heavy again.

"No miss, you lost quite a bit of blood over a long period of time and I want to make sure you are okay despite that".

"Okay, I'll try". The droid started cleaning then wrapping her raw feet that was caked in blood and blisters from walking in the hot sand. After that he went to the legs which only consisted of a sprained ankle and bruising around her inner thighs. Then to the arms...

"Miss Nova my scan indicate that your left arm is broken and will need to be reset prior to me treating it".

"Just do it" she said through her gritted teeth preparing herself for the pain she was about to feel. Everything hurt she felt numb and cold, how much more pain can it be really?

Todo grabbed her upper and lower arm and in one swift movement he snapped it back in its proper position. That's when she started to scream. Its not that she hasn't felt pain before, but she was just so exhausted and the constant pain she was already feeling on top of the sudden sharp pain and swelling that she now started to feel was enough. Nova's vision became dark.

Bane heard the screaming, what the hell is Todo doing? He quickly imputed directions into his computer once in hyperspace and hopped down from the cockpit to where Nova now lay motionless on the floor near the hanger area.

"What happened?"

"I believe Miss Nova has passed out from the pain of having her bones reset. It seems she had a few fingers that needed to be done to as well. I must say it is a whole lot easier to care for her while she is unconscious".

"Vitals?"

"Stable for now…though she has lost a lot of blood slowly over the past few hours, mostly internal from blunt force trauma"

"Well, I don't have extra blood lying around my ship now do I?" Bane was getting annoyed. I went through all this trouble to free this human and now she is trying to die on me. I can't believe I am going to ask this but "What about my blood?"

"Sir, though you are a living organism like her your species blood will poison and most likely kill her if given a transfusion".

"What all else is wrong with her"? Bane asked as the ship started to slightly shake.

"I need to patch her head and wrap her arm, and…" Todo start rambling on.

"I got it. Go fly the ship before it starts to try and fall apart, I'll finish this" Cad told Todo as he started going through the medical supplies. Bane has had many injuries over the years and unlike his droid he knows which injuries needs to be taken care of first. He went over picked up Nova and placed her on the sofa in the common area.

Droid should have started with her head not her feet if he wanted to control at least the external bleeding.

Bringing the med kit with him Bane took out and placed a medical patch over her brow and forehead, which had the most amount of blood, and started to slowly wrap gauze around her head. He then wiped around her face to clean off any dried blood to help him see if there were any other places she could have been slowly bleeding from. With her face clean you can see how young she looks, puffy chapped lips, and long lashes. Her skin flawless, minus the scarring in the shape of a 'R' on her cheek.

Once done with her head he moved to her arms and so on until everything was wrapped and covered. Now all there is to do it wait and see. Bane pulled up a chair, grabbed some parts for the ship to start working on that while sitting across from Nova. It was weird to see Nova wearing his clothes. Not that she looked bad, actually on the country she looks kind of beautiful, now that she was wearing something other than tan rags. The dark color of his clothes really highlighted he skin tone and dark hair.

Bane was no stranger to women, but a human… I must be tried.

Bane started to doze off when there was a sudden thud on the floor. Nova was seizing, she fell from the sofa to the floor and was shaking uncontrollably with her eyes looking in the back of her head.

"Todo!" Bane shouted as he held down her shoulders to prevent her from hurting herself any further while she thrashed around.

Todo was down from the cockpit quickly. "Her vitals are crashing; she has lost to much blood".

"We stopped the bleeding" Bane seethe

"Not in time, her body has taken too much damage and is going into shock. There… there is nothing left we can do…not here anyway" Todo hesitated sounding saddened.

Bane ignored Todo and started digging through the medical supplies and only stopped when he found what he was looking for. He had some needles and tubing and starting tying off Nova's good arm to look for her vain.

"Sir, if you are doing what I think you are doing, the probability of this working is very unlikely"

Nova had then stopped seizing and laid on the floor motionless.

"Well so what, if she is going to die anyway who cares" Bane told Todo in a hushed but irritated tone as he found her vain then proceed finding his own. Once his needle was in his arm his blood started flowing into her's.
