Jaylin | Darth Jadius | Jakku |
Jaylin walked into the hut, and leaned down under the bed. She dragged out her foot locker, brushing the dust off it. It was black with red trim, and it hadn't been opened in ages. She had always hated opening it because it showed her past. Popping the lid open, her fingers reached for the item on top. It was dented, faded gray and the glass shattered but it was her helmet. This helmet probably protected her head enough when she'd fallen that it was probably the reason she lived. She remembered that day like it was yesterday, the ships emergency door had opened due to a locking mechanism failure and she'd been sucked out the door before they'd gotten it shut. She hit tree after tree, her arm snapped and her ribs were crushed but her helmet saved her head and neck, which kept her alive.
She jerked herself into the present and looked down at the outfit underneath. It was a similar jumpsuit to the one in the closet but it was also torn, thanks to the branches and trees she'd hit. Underneath it was her wealth that she'd managed to spare. She had kept her foot locker off the ship, in one of the many huts on the planet they'd been on which was the only reason she managed to find it. She put the helmet back, shutting the foot locker and hefting it into her arms. It wasn't heavy thank goodness, made of a fine wood rather than metal. She brought it outside and set it near the ship before putting all her clothes in a smaller bag and left the hut for the last time. "Time to reclaim my training and status" She smiled towards Caelan and his droid as they readied the ship.
