Elisheva Che Mendoza || Location - Her Quarters || Crush - Obi-Wan Kenobi

Eli nodded and relaxed a bit, "I do. I know my dresses may be extravagant General, but I promise you I'm not all for flashy." She said quickly, "I'm sorry that was rude of me." She corrected herself, "I have a small ship, it's nothing crazy we usually it for shipments" She said softly, shifting a bit in her seat, "I will leave the plans in your hands General Kenobi. I guess I should pack a bag." She said softly and stood up from her seat, "I'm sorry again General Kenobi for snapping at you." She said softly before exiting the room, she made her way to her room which had a custom made bust in the corner with some fabric draped on it. She gently ran her fingers over the fabric before moving to the closet and grabbing a bag, placing it on the bed and filling it with her plain clothing that looked like a day and night difference from what she usually wore outside the castle.

Anakin Skywalker || Location - Meeting Room with group || Crush - Vanya Ka

Anakin shook his head, "No, no that's not what I was trying to say at all. I just used to work on droids when I was younger so it's something I still enjoy doing." He admitted and looked to Obi-Wan, nodding as he spoke, "I'll get the message sent to her right away." He nodded to the Jedi master and turned his attention to Elisheva as she snapped at him, shocked that the princess would snap like that. He fought back a smirk as he looked at Obi-Wan as the princess left, "Looks like she's a lot more fiery than she let on." He chuckled softly and stood up, "Should I get the message out to Senator Organa or do you need me to help you get the ship ready?" He looked to Obi-Wan.

He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose and nodded to Anakin's comment. "I can get the message to Senator Oragana If you and Vanya get the ships ready to fly." he remarked, worried for everyones safety. Obi-wan noticed how Elisheva snapped and bit his tongue. Knowing that she must be tired and tense. "I can have you in a force sleep on the ride there, it might help with your nerves." he commented. Getting up from his chair, he walked briskly to the other side of the room and out the door to deliver a message to the Senator and prepare his own self for yet another long star-trip

Rolling her eyes and then turning to Master Obi-wan, she nodded. Grabbing a small set of clothes from her room due to the fact that she had no real personal belongings besides her saber. Then, jogging to where the ships were docked, she opened up the old Mandalorian Merchant vessel and started powering it up. Going through the pre-flight logs and getting lost in their wordings while her brain tunnel visioned into her own mind. Making it easy for one to sneak up on. Being so focused on her work, the red ponytail that was always kept high up was messy from all the things she had to get under to make sure all the wiring and circuits were good.

Elisheva Che Mendoza || Location - Hallway with Obi || Crush - Obi-Wan Kenobi

Elisheva finished packing her bag and changed into an off white tunic and some brown pants, she left her hair up in it's braid and shrugged on a dark green robe before grabbing her bag and heading out of her quarters. She saw Obi-Wan finishing up his messages. She approached him and tucked her hair behind her ear, "I'm sorry... again." She smiled sheepishly, "I had no right to snap at you, and I should be grateful you two came to help." She said softly. She shrugged the bag on her shoulder to keep it from slipping, "I will do anything you need to help I promise." She said firmly.

Anakin Skywalker || Location - Old Cargo Ship || Crush - Vanya Ka

Anakin followed Vanya's instructions and headed to the old ships. He headed into the old cargo ship and began running a quick check of all the electronics. It was old, and he knew that Obi would probably not be thrilled when he saw the ship. He headed into the cockpit and looked over at Vanya, "This ship looks like it hasn't seen an outing in at least 5 years." He laughed softly and watched her warmly before checking a few final things. He looked over at Vanya, "Sorry about earlier... I didn't mean to offend you." He said softly, checking his checklist as he moved around the cockpit checking to make sure everything was ready for them to take off.

He smiled at the concern she had "you have a good heart, there was no ill intent between you and I. I know you didn't mean to be rude nor do you intend on jeopardizing this mission." he put a hand on her shoulder and then continued " I understand that asking you to leave is asking much. But please understand that this might be the way to save your people." Obi-wan gave her a look of reassurance before taking her bag from her and walking with her to the ships. Making sure Anakin and Vanya had done the pre-flight checks in accordance with his standards he flipped on his switch to the ignition inside the Luxary 3000 ship. He knew that the cannons equipped on it could easily disable pursuers and calculated the coordinates to the planet Naboo.

Helping Elisheva onto the ship and making sure she was situated before making any more adjustments to their flight, he turned to her and once again said "I'm sure the Republic will help you. They know what it would mean for the Empire should your planet fall." Obi-wan sat down in the cockpit and started flipping switches, making sure the flaps, cannons, radar among other things were all in order before completing the list and calling for the other two Jedi.



Vanya Ka | Pre-flight checking a ship| Ani

She hardly noticed him apologizing, as she was absorbed in making sure the ship would run. Pausing only briefly before looking at Anakin with a smudge of oil across her face from the pipe that needed fixing in back. "It really didn't offend me, I was only joking." Vanya continued to make sure it was pass as a decoy that could easily be tracked and destroyed. " It will run on an autopilot and can be tracked, missile-locked and destroyed just in case." she jotted down a couple notes about the ship in case the jedi wanted to rebuild one from scratch later. Looking at Anakin again, she said "You just gonna stare or are you gonna help with these checks?" and turned her attention away from the tall man that she'd once knew well. Many things had changed since she left, including the fact that Anakin had become taller than her. And though she refused to admit it, in the back of her mind, she considered him rather handsome in fact. Hoping neither He nor Obi-wan would try to enter her mind and delve into the secrets.

Vanya readied her Mandalorian armor that was sent with her as a gift from Mandalore. The last known roots she could remember that had stayed with her when given up at birth. Wiping the helmet clean and setting it aside, not wanting to wear it as Mandalorians were still being chased by others due to their reputations as hunters and master killers.

Elisheva Che Mendoza || Location - On ship with group || Crush - Obi-Wan Kenobi

Eli smiled softly at him, “You really are to kind general. I hope you are right though… if this war is lost then the empire will have full control of all of our farms and livestock…” She shook her head, “I don’t even want to think about what they’d do with that kind of power.” She admitted and smiled softly at him as he reassured her. She carefully passed off her bag to him and followed him closely onto the ship. She sat down in a seat and buckled in, gently gripping the fabric of her pants as she thought about what was to come on their adventure. Worries of what would happen to her people and everything that could go wrong flooded her mind. She closed her eyes and silently counted, focusing on the task at hand and what she could do to help in the future. Her knuckles still pail from her gripping her pants as she old rickety ship lifted up off the ground and made its way off the planet.

Anakin watched her in awe before shaking out of it and getting back to work, “Sorry.” He chuckled softly, “You’ll have to show me how to make one of those one day. Preferably when we aren’t in a situation like we are in now.” He chuckled softly and helped Obi-Wan make the final preparations before he hopped into the seat near Eli, turning his attention to the princess he noticed how much she was struggling to stay calm and moved back into the cockpit, “One of you may be more help to her right now than I believe I could be.” He admitted as he quickly explained how she seemed to be fighting herself to calm down. He looked between the two of them and smiled, “I can take over for either of you. I’m a great pilot!” He smirked at Obi-wan knowing how he felt about his flying.

[Youre fine, I'm sleepy so the quality might go down as I hop into bed and on mobile because now I'm invested]

Obi-wan | Changing seats | Eli

Obi-wan reluctantly changed spots with Anakin as they lifted off. The boy was an excellent pilot and there was little need to worry. "Don't worry Elisheva, Anakin is a better pilot than I ever could be" he boasted about his young padawan. Hoping that the man would grow and fulfill the prophecy. Strapping in next to the princess he made sure to keep her attention on him rather than the spurring fright that she felt at the moment. "Would you like to hear about mine and Anakin's travels in the systems?" he offered, pulling his brown cloak over his shoulder due to space being so cold. You'd think they would make a better heating system for the ships these days but unfortunately, the Republic didn't look into such luxuries. He decided to tell her about the time Anakin went podracing as a young boy, before he ever joined the Jedi order. During the time of his slavery, but he made sure to keep that part out due to the woman's ever-growing stress.

Putting on the headset and sitting in the first pilots chair, she claimed captainship of the vessel and made sure to stick it in Anakin's face whenever he came aboard. "You're sticking me with the padawan?" she laughed and punched the boys arm. Making sure it wasn't too hard due to her tomboyish nature. Shrugging it off she handed the man a headgear and started flipping the switches for cannon check, as it was her habit of doing so every time she flew. "Alright, Princesses and Jedi, please make sure all bags are secure, your fasteners clamped and your bodies ready for take off. We will not be landing until we reach Naboo in a bit. Shooting upwards and into space, Vanya made the checks and put in the coordinates for a jump closer to Naboo, as a jump straight to Naboo was bound to attract attention, as it was a far travel and they needed the element of concealment.

(At work so responses will be sparse until I get home)

Eli looked up as Obi-Wan sat next to her and she offered him a weak smile. As he offered to tell her stories she nodded, Please do, that would be lovely.” She said softly, focusing on him as he spoke. She gently tugged her cloak closer around her shoulders to help with the chill that was creeping through the ship as they made it off the planet and into space. She listened intently to his story from when Anakin was younger and smiled, “Sounds like he showed great potential even when he was younger. I bet you’ve had your hands full with him as your padawan.” She smiled softly at him, leaning back a bit on her seat she looked over to him, “When I was younger I used to sneak out of the castle to go out to the fields. It was always so peaceful and quiet there. When I took over my mother’s place I started a garden on the side of the castle in hopes to get something similar to the flower fields, but I don’t have as much of a green thumb as I thought I would. Always to busy with everything else.” She laughed softly, relaxing now that her mind wasn’t on everything else for once.

Anakin hopped into Obi-Wan’s seat and put his headgear on, smirking at Vanya, “Hey I’ve got you in age by a couple years. Besides I’m a really good pilot.” He laughed softly. As they quickly left the planet he focused on doing what she asked of him, flipping switches and tapping buttons as she asked. He looked out as they made it into space and grinned at her, “Hope your ready for the long haul.” He chuckled as he checked their pathing, “So how have you been since you left the temple? I see you got a new job as a Royal guard instead of a Jedi master.” He teased playfully.

[Elyidian]

(You’re fine, I just woke up and my bones hurt. I will now be copying your style because I like the simplicity lol)

Obi-wan smiled as she told him about the fields of flowers she would run through. He remembered that Naboo had places like those fields and thought about taking her to one of those. Maybe it would bring a fleeting moment of joy. He paused her for a moment and told her to make sure she was securely strapped before jump. “Here, your fastener is tangled.” He I clicked the strap over her left shoulder and twisted it so that if anything went wrong in the jump she wouldn’t get hurt. Clicking it back into place he gave the all clear for Vanya and Anakin to ready the Hyper Drive. “Though I think flying is for droids, it’s quite nice when I am not the pilot and can focus on other things.” He offered her a hand to ease her mind as he would meditate on the force. “ it’s quite relaxing.” He offered.



Vanya shifted power into the hyper drive and let it power up before making the jump. Making sure coordinates were correct and her seat secure. Leaning over to make sure Anakin was properly strapped in as he was a thrill seeker and usually lived on the edge. “ I miss the temple and my friends, but I am much happier and fulfilled here. There is a large amount of energy surrounding her planet and it makes it seem more like home.” She sighed making the jump to hyper space and turning her attention to Anakin again. “ it’s not thag I don’t miss being a Sentinel, I do. But I’m happier here. I only wish all Jedi could find happiness.” Vanya knew that seeking happiness for one’s self and to no benefit of others was something Jedi weren’t fond of following. But with her training as a sentinel, she walked the line between Sith and Jedi every day. being asked certain things or to do tasks that regular Jedi saw a moral problem with completing was the job she was given. “but I’ve been good mostly, when we reach Naboo I wouldn’t mind sparing” she commented as they exited hyper space.

(The simplicity is nice)

Eli blushed as Obi-Wan got close to her, fixing her strap, “Thank you General.” She smiled weakly as he clipped her back in and got himself situated. She smiled softly and nodded, “Yes it is nice not having to be the one focus on everything for a change isn’t it?” She laughed softly. She hesitated before taking his hand and closed her eyes, taking a deep breath as the ship started to shake and move into hyper drive for the jump. She gently clutched his hand, using her free hand to hold onto the seat as they made the jump. She felt Obi-Wan’s calmness wash over her and relax, her grip on his hand loosening a bit, “Thank you.” She said softly, her voice barely above a whisper, “I’m glad you came to help out.” She admitted.

Anakin saw her double check his straps and chuckled softly, “I’m in secure I promise.” He said as he looked back over to her, “As long as your happy that’s good. It’s nice that you found a place you’re happy and can call home.” He smiled at her and watched out the window as they moved into the jump, “It’s something I feel could benefit more Jedi. Following happiness. However I know how many Jedi believe that doing something like that would be selfish.” He admitted and glanced towards the back of the ship, “I hope one day Master Obi-Wan can find happiness like you have. I think it would suite him.” He smiled back at her and chuckled softly when she mentioned sparing, “That would be nice. Be just like the old times.” He smiled warmly and checked to make sure they weren’t going to run into any trouble when they came out of the jump.

[Elyidian]

Obi-wan smirked slightly as he felt the tension flow into his body. Stress of being ruler must be difficult. "We are a little ways from Naboo. Let's hope we weren't followed" Making sure it was safe to do so he unclamped the fastener so that he could move around the ship before acknowledging her appreciation "well I'm glad the council chose us for the job. You couldn't be in safer hands." almost as if to mock his statement, Empire droids exited hyper space behind them and fired with a PSA announcement like over the speaker "surrender the ship for inspection or be destroyed" it said. And while Obi-wan would love to keep talking to the woman, he rushed to the first cannon seat and beckoned for the princess to get in the other one. " If you've never fired a ship cannon before, not to worry, I will show you!" he leaned over, quickly showing her the simple controls for the cannons. "red circle is a missle, red square is the regular rounds. Missile tracking engages within 5 seconds so you need to have a target lock before using." he yelled, flipping switches to make sure she could use it with ease.

Vanya Ka

As she was flying before, Vanya's behavior changed to one of slight worry as the Empire piloted ships came around. She knocked the switch that diverted power from a shield to the thrusters and maneuvered so that they were facing the two. " Alright kids. lock and load" she stated before full-throttling into the midst of the enemy ships "We cannot risk them getting back to their Star Destroyer. They must be destroyed" she continued to focus on the intensity of the moment while trying to figure out a way to get around the shield of the Ties. "Anakin, divert into cannons." she instructed while clamping her hands to the stick of the ship trying to turn it.
