Carth entered the room once again, keeping his words upbeat, "You know, I only have a few of these stims left. Soon you are going to have to get up. Eat and drink something on your own…" Still nothing.

-------------------

Carth was frustrated. His progress with the droids was at a standstill and Revan was just the same. He let go of his gentle tones and tried another tactic with her.

"Dammit woman, enough already!..." Nothing.

-------------------------

"Revan, dammit…"

---------------------------

Frustration and defeat began to take its toll and Carth found himself pleading for her to listen to him, to acknowledge him, to respond, "I need you, you have to come back, from where ever you have gone. I can't do this alone…."

------------------------------

Three times Juhani had to slip away from the pair and reactivate her shield. She was afraid she would loose them but was more afraid of using her force power to hide her prescence. She would only rely on her force powers if the stealth shield that Canderous had, long ago, handed out to the crew of the Ebon Hawk, failed. She had another as back up, thanks to Carth, but the journey had caused her to use up more of the shield then she liked.

Finally, after winding around dark alleys and less then hospitable places for close to an hour, the pair stopped. A ship loomed in the distance and Juhani immediately knew it was part of the plan. I am going to have to make a decision soon, which one to follow. I only hope it will be the right one.

She moved her body towards the ship. Thank the force I met that nefarious merchant at the cantina and actually purchased some items from him. It really did not matter now that the only reason she had looked at his wares was because she thought she might gain information from him. The tracking devices she had purchased, along with an order for a superior splicing droid and other irrelevant items, would definitely come in handy. At least I will know where the ship goes, if something goes wrong.

Slipping around behind the shadow of the vessel she sent a transmission to Carth, in the hopes that he had been able to get the Fore Runner functioning again. And if not, at least he might eventually get the message, in case something happened to prevent her from returning. Moving back, after installing the tracking device underneath the starcraft, she listened intently to the pair.

"I need the lab set up as quickly as possible. Here is what I require" the scout handed the large brute a datapad. "The location that I have already secured, along with the required documentation to allow you entrance, is also on the datapad. Do not fail me. I expect everything ready when I return after my meeting with Darth Gnillihs. They are already working on adequate chambers for the children, since they are an absolute must when I return with them. I do not want anyone to be able to sense them through the force and I trust you to make certain of this. Do you understand? There is no room for ineptness from this point forward."

"I understand." The brute replied, but was not resigning himself to being the scout's subordinant. "I am risking a lot and you still have not told me much. IF you are wrong, it will be your last mistake."

The scout grinned, "In time all will be revealed. For now, you know as much as necessary. And if you fail me it will, most assuredly, be your last mistake!"

With that, the brute moved off towards the ship. The grey-green of his skin glowing from the three moons that surrounded the unknown planet. It made him look even bigger then he already was. The horns protruding from his arms were casting an eerie shadow upon the ground where he walked.

Juhani had a split second to decide who to follow. Each one held information she needed and she was torn about which path to pursue. Falling back to what she trusted, she let the force guide her. She let go of her own thoughts and let it guide her to the decision. She would follow the scout.

"Wait!" the scout roared. The brute paused in his path, turning around. Juhani felt a shiver run up her spine as she silently berated herself for using the force so close to them. She held her breath, hand resting on her lightsaber and waited to see if she had been discovered.

-------------------------------

Carth gazed upon her, fighting off everything about their current situation and just concentrated on her. "Rev, we have come a long way. You are no longer a neophyte padawan and I am no longer afraid to tell you how I feel."

He moved his hand up to her face, brushing her cheek with his thumb, "I love you beautiful, force do I love you." He leaned in and kissed her gently, "Please come back."

His hand moved to stroke her hair, bringing it back to cradle her head as he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I love you. With everything I have, I love you. And I forgive you, for everything, just please, please, come back."
