Skycoaster

Midnight would nod to Raven. "That is quite the interesting story. The force has many ways of making sure we get where we are needed...or so Master Luna would say. Perhaps that's why you and I are here now....that or the Jedi Council enjoys messing with us." The bat pony would look to Raven and smile. "My master used to say that the Council is wise, but the Force is all knowing...She didn't always see eye to eye with them on some...most of the issues the Council would address." Midnight would sigh deeply. "Perhaps that's why she never made the rank of master, though I'm sure she is enjoying being on the front lines of the war more then just sitting in a circle overanalyzing every ripple in the force. In a way, I think that's why I was chosen to be her padawan...to try to mellow her down," he would chuckle Midnight looked up to the front of the cockpit where Tiger was before looking back to Raven. "I wonder what his training was like," he would say with a wink and a bit of inquisition in his voice, wondering if the sleeping knight in the co-pilot chair would chime in.

"I see," Midnight would say with a sigh. "We are both from war torn worlds. Alderon was not always as peaceful as it is now....though even that statement is a lie." The bat pony would look down at the floor of the cockpit as he continued. "The aristocracy would have open wars for control of the throne, though these where just minor skirmishes, there where losses. Once the Sith Empire got involved however...It turned into full civil war. Sith backed houses vs Republic backed houses..." Midnight would sigh once more, envisioning in his mind the battles of the past. The battles that happened outside the doorstep of the house he grew up in. "Though they would not admit it, the Republic and Sith both sent troops and supplies to the planet. It would take Jedi intervention for the open conflict to end. That was almost 200 years ago, and there is still unrest between the houses of Alderon, though it's more....covert these days." Midnight looked to the side in shame. "After doing research...my house was one backed by the Sith..." Now looking to Raven, he would try to smile. "That's how my master found me. Every few years a Jedi comes to Alderon to make sure all the families are abiding by the code of their armistice. I was just a foal when I left home." "Now then," He would say trying to change the subject just a bit, "Dantoonie was also a causality of the Sith and Republic War if my memory serves me correct. The planet where secrete weapons where tested on both sides, Correct? It's a miracle that anything could live there, though the force dose mysterious things. So, how did you meet your....first master?"

Unless you guys want to discuss a different time period?

Hm....between Old Republic and Clone Wars.

Midnight would smile to Raven as he continued to pilot the shuttle. “Imputing Hyperspace quadrants.” S-K-3 would beep. With a pull of the hyperdrive lever, the shuttle would be on its way. “Destination requires two jumps,” the droid would beep once more. With the ship under the control of the navacomputer, Midnight would walk to and sit in the chair across the cockpit from Raven. “Since your going to be my padawan, I figured we could use this time to get to know each other,” he said with a fang filled smile. “I’ll start. I was born on Alderon. What planet are you originally from?”

The ship has left.

An audible hiss could be heard as the ramp to the shuttle closed and the cabin pressurized. Hovering in the hanger, the ships landing gear retracted and the shuttle began to move forward. Exiting the hanger, the ships wings would fold down into their flight position. Midnight would look back to his new padawan, sensing her nervousness. “Are you alright Raven,” he would say with concern in his voice. “It shouldn’t be too long of fight to our destination.” The bat pony would turn his attention once more to the windscreen in front of them as the blue sky over Corusont turned into the blackness of space.

Midnight could feel his heart rate rising as he read the droids text on the small screen in front of him. He had known Master Luna had been spooked about something and this only confirmed it. What could make the second highest ranking Jedi so worried. Nodding his head in agreement to Tiger Blood, his ears would perk up once he heard his padawan speak. "That's a good thought Raven. Thank you for your input." The bat pony would try to hide a sigh however before sharing his thoughts on the matter. "I feel there is a disturbance in the force, though I can't figure it out. It's surrounding our republic. With this war....and increasing oversight from the Republic Senate with the Jedi affairs....who's really going to miss three low level Jedis." Midnight looked to Tiger. "Didn't you find it odd that we both got promoted to Knights, though our rank in the Republic Army did not increase to General like the other Knights and Masters...and with Raven never being out of the Jedi Temple since her training began...or at least that's my theory." He would stop talking and started to take deep breaths trying to calming himself back down. Pressing a button, the ramp to the shuttle would begin to rise.

Last call for sign ups before the ship leaves. Jedis, troopers, smugglers still welcome.

Random audible hums and beeps could be heard as the ship began to come to life. Midnight would look around the cabin to notice that both Tiger Blood and Raven had entered the cockpit as well "Looks like it may be just us three....unless somecreature else shows up. Five minutes...then we take off." As he looked at the empty seat, he would sigh deeply.Leaning back in his char, he begin to rub his hoof on his forehead. "Raven," he would call back to his padawan, "Make yourself comfortable with the console in front of you. That's normally the seat for the communication officer. I think this shuttle is equipped with relay beacons for long range communications..." he would chuckle for a moment as a thought ran through his head. "You know, it's almost like whomever gave us this shuttle doesn't want our communications to be traced." A metallic sound could be heard rolling from the cabin behind them and into the cockpit. "Correct," an Astromech droid would beep, It's translation displaying on each of the ship's console in front of them. "Name = S-K-3. I came with Ship. Registered Owner = Midnight Oil. Not Official Jedi craft in case of mission complications. Can not be traced back to Jedi Council."

Ships leaving soon! Join now or find peace in the Force. @Alivda whenever your ready to post.

Midnight quickly shook off his confusion and smiled at his new padawan....new padawan. that was going to take a while to get used to as well. "Nice to meet you. I’m sorry how I reacted originally. You see, I just passed the Jedi Trials just a few days ago to become a Knight. The council must see similarity between us and great potential within you. I'm glad to have you onboard Raven," as he extended his hoof to her. Though he looked calm on the outside, his mind began to race with all the pickles that he had gotten his master into at that age... The bat pony looked to Tiger. "I have a good feeling about the team that has assembled here so far. Now, if you will excuse me, I'm going to get the shuttle warmed up." Midnight walked slowly up the ramp into the Mu-Class shuttle. "Still has that new ship smell," he would say loud enough to be heard by Tiger and Raven. As he walked slowly into the cockpit, he would pause before taking a seat in the left pilot's char. Black leather seats, tinted windscreen...four total seats in the cockpit. As he flipped the main power switch, lights both inside and outside the ship would slowly begin to come on.

Midnight nodded to the newly arrived Jedi. "As ready as we're going to be," he said with apprehension in his voice. "Master Luna has only given me the information needed to begin our mission, nothing more. I'm afraid we are going in blind...by the council's design. To be honest, I'm not even sure the entire Jedi Council has even authorized the mission. It may be just Master Luna and Grand Master Celestia...." The bat pony's glance would look over his fellow night now flanking the other landing strut, taking note of his appearance and how it varied drastically from a traditional Jedi. It would only be mere moments however before another Jedi would enter the scene. This one much younger then himself and his fellow Knight whom he had yet to still as his name. "A padawan?" he would say to Tiger. "I wonder if her master is coming on this mission as well?" As Raven addressed them, the bat pony's jaw would hang open in shock for a few moments. "I...Um...I'm Jedi Knight Midnight Oil. Who's padawan did you say you where again?" he said with confusion in his voice and a look of shock on his face. "Um...Welcome. I don't believe I caught you name, ether of your names actually. I guess now is as good of time as any to formally introduce ourselves," as he looked to Tiger as well.

Yep. Go ahead and post Alivda

Ok, I'm calming Raven as the padawan that Midnight doesn't know he's getting lol

You have been added. Will Raven be Midnight's padawan or just a padawan assigned to the mission?

Little dose the team know that a new threat is waiting in the shadows.... Midnight Oil stood the main hanger of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. His gaze locked onto the Mu-class shuttle in front of him. His heart was beating the quickest it had since he had passed the Jedi Trials only a few short days ago. "Jedi Knight....Jedi Knight....Commander Midnight..." he muttered to himself "Your first mission on behalf of Master Luna...You can...You must do this.." figgiting with his robe's hood, he would walk slowing towards the shuttle taking slow, deep breaths. Reaching the shuttles ramp, he would lean against on the landing struts, awaiting the team that had been chosen for this mission.
