Chapter 2

The beeping was too much for Heron's subconscious to ignore any longer, so he awoke from his vision of Yavin 4 in ruins. Slowly and wearily he clambered to his feet to see what the computer was making such a racket for. He soon understood.

Frantically he pressed every button he could find on the consol, but it was no use. The computer didn't recognise any of the constellations and they couldn't be found on any of the astrological charts stored in the ships navi computer. He heard a groan behind him, and as he turned he saw the slumped figure of his master, blood running all over him.

At least the force was still on his side, otherwise he would never have gotten his master to the med bay or into the Kolto tank. It wasn't working perfectly, but it would keep him alive till he could figure what was going on. The last he remembered was a Sith warship firing on them and the jump to light speed. The rest was a blur.

He sat in the cockpit, diagnosing the damage the ship had taken. The power to all systems were fine, but the hyper drive and engines were damaged pretty badly. As he set the droids to work repairing the damaged sections of the ship he saw something walk past the ship. He froze. Would this life form see the ship or recognise it? He had to try.

He jumped out of the ships door and caught up with the strange being.

"Excuse me"? he tried, unsure if the being could speak his language.

The man stopped and jumped around, screaming and thrashing a small wooden club at his would be attacker. Heron dodged the strike with ease and parried the blow so the club wielding maniac was soon on the floor, with a face full of mud.

Quickly relieving the man of his weapon, Heron helped him up and tried again.

"Excuse me sir, could you tell me what system this is"?

The man looked at Heron as if he didn't understand him.

Using the force, he adapted his speech so he could understand the man, and he could understand what he was saying as well.

"What system is this"? he repeated

"F'raid I don't know what you mean sir"? was the reply

"This system. What is its name, or the name of this planet?"

"O this is Earth sir, don't seem like much I know but we make do. Umm, why did you attack me"?

Heron left the man walking away with a funny feeling that he had just done something, but couldn't quite remember what. This was bad in Herons opinion. He was sure he had heard of the planet "Earth" but he didn't know where he had heard it. But if it wasn't on the star charts he would start to worry a bit more.

He started worrying.

Will Heron find out what is happening? Will Jaden ever fully recover? What will Heron discover if he wanders away from the ship? Find out in the next exciting instalment of……. A KNIGHTS TALE!
