The Eternal Vigilance (The Maw)


Tarrian Skywalker

Recommended Posts

After his journey on the rebel cruiser from Hoth, Ish was pretty hungry, so he made his way to the nearest map of the facility, and eventually located a mess hall which he hurried to. As he was having a drink and a small morsel to eat, he pondered if he would be able to find a master here. It was unfortunate, but he thought his chances were somewhat heightened because he had made it through the battle on Hoth.

 

He was relieved to be back where things felt right, and chaos was nowhere to be found. Ish decided to go find a meditation chamber that he would be able to use for a bit to work on his force healing. He exited the cafeteria and returned to the facility map. He found the meditation chambers across the facility....figures he thought to himself with a chuckle. He started off on his way and gave thought to how his friend Skye was doing. He imagined she was also comforted by the fact that this was the new Jedi stronghold and home.

 

Before he knew it Ish had arrived at the chambers. He looked confused at the door because there was no switch or hand or anything to open it to enter the chamber. He stepped closer to examine it, but no sooner had he inched closer than the door opened. Must be able to sense the presence of a Jedi....neat he thought to himself. Ish entered and the door closed behind him. The room had a low blueish glow to it. The floor was padded with mats and in the center there was a smooth curvy looking seat floating about a meter off the mats. Ish placed himself indian style on the seat as it floated gently over the mats. There was not a sound in the room. Ish could only feel himself breathing. He let go of his emotions and worries. He gave himself to the force. He could feel the force energy flow through him more than ever for this truely must have been a place where the force flowed strong. Instantly he concentrated on the healing of what was left of his bruises.

 

This time he could feel them heal extremely quickly. He was amazed with himself. He obviously did not get overconfident, but no sooner than he had started to heal, he could feel that he was all well. His skin had a healthy tone where his bruises once were. He felt envigorated, and so naturaly he wished to spare. He and Skye had never gotten to it anyways, so he went off to go find his friend...

Ish while looking for Skye also felt a rumble in his stomach, as he was hungry again. "Hungry again!....I'm never gonna lose this weight" he muttered to himself!

 

He thought Skye could be in the cafeteria as well, so he made his way to get some food. As Ish walked in the entrance, he spotted Skye sitting down with another Jedi(Xel) and they seemed to be engaged in small conversation. Ish went and got all the food he could fit on his plate and headed over to where Skye was sitting.

 

"I hope you don't mind if i join you Skye?" as he glanced over at the other Jedi in a subjugative manor.

Ish ate at a frantic pace...whatever it was he had been served it was good none the less. When he finished he decided (as Skye had mentioned she was going to do) to go do some exploring. He was not going to look at the maps at all and just make his way through the various levels of the majestic machine. He felt so envigorated with how strong the force was flowing and all the new beginnings that he couldn't even describe it to even himself in thought.

As Ish walks around the corrodors he sees other hopefuls and jedi with their masters. Jedi were still arriving and he could feel the presence of more and more force sensatives as their numbers grew. The architecture of the ship was stunning. Long graceful arches at every crossing over every intersection of hallways. The hallways seemed to flow into the rooms. There was a general white hue on everything as if it were glowing with appreciation now that the jedi had come there. Here and there blue flood lights would shine up at the ceiling which in turn reflected the light to give the innerworkings of the vessel a seaworthy calm blue color.

 

Before Ish knew it he had traversed from one side of the vessel to the other. He decided to head back the other way to see if he was missing anything. As he made his way about three fourths down the ship he glanced down the hall and saw Skye. She seemed to be glowing herself and looked quite beautiful. He would compliment her as a friend, but then again he knew there was something maybe up between her and Darex. As the two came nearer to eachother Skye spotted him as well. Ish smiled to see that she'd noticed him.

 

As the two came closer Ish asked "How are you doing".....cliche-of-a- greeting Ish thought, but it will do. Maybe this time she'd be ready to spare. He imagined she had honed her skills quite well in any case. Of course he didn't want to see pushy about it, so he did not ask her about it straight away.

Ish reguarded Ben'a s comments in a rather confused manor. He indeed had feelings for Skye, but he was just a caring friend of hers....YES he told himself that is all. I may have connection with her, but it is only because of the way we met, on the barren fields of Hoth. She, physically so weak, yet so strong in the force was one of the few friends Ish had made throughout his Jedi training, short though it had been.

 

Ish knew his place now though thanks to Ben'a. He would keep up his friendship with Skye and patiently wait for any master that would have him. He knew he could do well, but also came to the realization that all good things come in time to those who wait. He glanced over at Skye and shot her smile, which he instantly (as always) received back. "Shall we spare now, or do you feel the need to dwell on his advice?" Ish asked Skye as sat by him. She seemed to be pondering her decision so Ish patiently waited.

Ish was excited to finally spare. "Too many interruptions!" Ish exclaimed harshly with a cynical laugh. He hopped up from the table, and nodded to Darex and then extended his hand in the direction oh the doorway to show Skye out.

Ish grasped his bamboo stick and gritted his hands around it tightly. The stick became an extension of himself. He twirlled his stick with his left hand on the side of his body slowly as he decided where to strike. His first blow came to Skyes right side as Ish crossed over his own body holding the pole with both hands. He of course wasn't surprised to see it blocked firmly by Skye waiting stick. She seemed to be using the force to know his next move...Goodwoods words would become fact eventually....she would do the order proud as a Jedi. Ish dashed back using the force quickly, hunkered down. In and instant he lunged out from his crouched position and jumped over Skye and twisted himself in mid air so he was positioned to strike at her when he hit the ground.

 

He could tell Skye was quite surprised from the look on her face. Ish swung his weapon at Skyes ankle so as to take her to the ground, and he succeeded with a hit. However as Skye fell, she caught herself with her hand and used the force (as Ish could feel it eminating from her) to flip back to her feet. "Very impressive!" he said shooting Skye a smile of admiration. Ish twirled his stick once more as he losened his grip and concentrated within himself on this battle. He took his stance and waited for Skyes next attack. He reached out with the force to see if he could sense where the next blow would come from.

Ish was sent reeling as he attempted to block Skye's strikes. One hit him in the shoulder, but did not fall him. The next strike however met his shins to which he fell and rolled so as to keep his momentum going. He recovered and hunkered down so as to keep a low target. He and Skye were separated by about three meters. Again Ish crouched down extending one of his legs out from under him ((ala kung fu style)) and held his stick diagonally across the front of him. He could feel the floor underneath him and the air around him. He knew he must have been getting more in tune with the force because he was not even trying to use it to heighten his senses.

 

He lept at Skye who had her stick right at his sticking point already. Instead of using his stick, he swept his leg towards hers to trip her, but she barely hopped over his long sweeping leg. Ish resumed a more standing posture and came at Skye with a barrage of swings that were small and consice(sp). Each swing accept for the last was parried with ease by Skye. Both he and Skye were moving at frantic paces. His last strike hit her squarely on the upper arm as she had it extended holding her pole out. She winced mildly then regained her stern composer and came back at him.

Ish was within himself astonished though he wouldn't let it show at Skyes daring attempt to trip him with the force. It was a very nice manuever. He rarely has time to contemplate that as Skye retorts with another slew of strikes. One unfortunate strike makes contact with Ish's collar bone. He feels the pain surge through him as Skye strikes. He ignores his pain as he falls towards the floor. He catches himself with one hand and slowly lifts himself back up.

 

As he gets to his feet he already knows what he is going to do. As he becomes prostrate he stands still for a moment to throw Skye off and to prepare himself. WIth a sudden jolt Ish uses the force to sprint at her. He makes a circle around her attacking her on all sides as quickly as he can. Skye does well to repell most of the attacks as she speeds up with Ish, but only uses her stick to deflect while staying in the same position. Finally Ishs' pole meets her hip to which she rolls sideways. Respectfully Ish hops back and readies himself in a defensive stance. He senses her becoming tired, as he himself is a bit winded.

Ish agreed emphatically with Skyes request. He bowed to her as well and they both put back their bamboo poles on the rack. Ish felt very good after this nice workout. He'd broken a sweat for the first time since the battle on Hoth. He walked with Skye over to the bathrooms, and then he went into the male bathroom while Skye went her way. He called out "I'll see you later! Maybe we can meet up for something to eat again when you want." With a courteous wave, a nod, and a smile they were both off in their separate ways for a while.

 

Ish could sense Skye even as he was walking away from her. He was glad he could sense his friend. Ish showered up and headed out to find a room for himself to put down the few small rashions and belongings he had with him and maybe find a change of robes.

 

As he walked out of the gym he saw two other hopefuls(Scorp and Spock), and the one he recognized as Scorp whom he had met on Hoth and received news of his cloning on the rebel ship. "How've you been?" Ish called out to Scorp as he walked over to he and Spock. Ish had a glint in his eye, he actually knew people, and was very glad to have some company while he was here at the Jedi academy.[/b]

"I feel great, I'm just about to grab a shower quick" exclaimed Ish. "It's nice to back somewhere safe, wouldn't you agree Scorp?" as Ish fondled his lightsaber that he still had from when he escaped the battle on Hoth. "Who's your friend here next to you?" asked Ish refering to Spock.

Ish heads out from the showers after talking to Scorp and Spock. He needs a change of clothes, and a room to stay in. He goes to the nearest information kiosk and accesses the on board computer and inputs his name. He finds he is put in a room near many of the other Jedi and hopefuls which is to his delight.

 

Now all i need are some clothes, I've been wearing these a bit too long

 

First thing Ish heads to his room. He meanders through the halls once more of the great vessel admiring the architecture until he comes to a door with the number 1279I on it.

 

"This is it" Ish tells himself.

 

He steps in to find a small, almost cozy room perfect size for him. He looks everything over and runs his hand along the neatly made bed. He finds a personal bathroom directly off his bedroom. He searches through his drawers and cabinets using the force to open them from across the room for practice. All of them seemed to be empty which Ish obviously expected, except for the last on. In it he finds a pair of blue robes along with a green and a gray pair. To his delight he makes sure the door is locked sheds his current robes and puts on the green ones instinctively.

 

He can feel hunger churning in his stomach again.

 

How am I ever going to survive on a mission without all this food he chuckles to himself

 

Ish heads to the cafeteria and grabs a plate of food he does not recognize, but that he wants to eat none the less. He makes his way over to an empty table and begins to for the first time eat like a normal person instead of stuff food into his mouth. He looks around at all the other people in the room wondering if possibly his new master would be in here.

Ish gets up from his table, and puts his tray and plate in the proper recepticles. He decides to go relax in his room and do a bit of sketching which for him is a form of meditation. Walking down the beautiful halls of the vessel he spots a padawan master pair walking along, both human males. The padawan has a typical hair cut of a padawan as tradition states. Ish' own hair was nothing of the sort. It was about half way down his back long dark brown and flowing. He also had a goatee of sorts.

 

"Hmmm...Maybe it's time for a change" He muttered to himself as he passed the master and padawan nodding to them and getting a nod back.

 

Ish enters his room and pulls out his sketching template which he stowed away on his utility belt. He was surprised it had remained in one piece all through the battle and his sparing. "Built to last" he said as he threw it over on the bed....Ish has something more important to attend to at the moment. He rumages around in his bathroom through the drawers until he finds a pair of scissors. Though a bit archaic, Ish respects the item and lays it on the counter and takes a last look in the mirror at himself. He hadn't locked the door to his apartment, so he shuts the bathroom door.

 

Ish stairs at the mirror and slowly reaches for his scissors and begins to cut his long hair. He lets out a contemptuous moan as it falls on the counter. After about thirty minutes of cutting, trimming, and refining he has finally cut his hair and trimmed his hair to look suitable. He cut off his goatee as well, and used his shaver to shave his stuble.

 

There's a face under all this hair he thought to himself. He admitted maybe it was a good thing to cut it all off. It had been time for a change.

 

He proceeded to clean up his mess, took one last long look in the mirror at himself and headed out to his bedroom. He strolled over to his bed and grabbed his template and began to draw a picture remeniscent of the architecture on the vessel yet that was all his own......It had been a while since he'd had time drawn.

 

After a while he attempted to use the force to move the pencil across the computerized screen. Ish was quite relaxed so the force came easier to him, much more natural. He felt the pencil as an extension of himself. He continued with his vision of what he wanted to draw, but also concentrated hard to see if he could move the pencil to his will. He achieved his desired task somewhat, but he still was not as accurate with the force as he was with his own hand. He let go of the pencil with the force and caught it before it fell onto the screen, and continued his drawing by hand.

 

He turned his concentration to another thought besides his current drawing. How was Skye, and had she yet found a master....Ish hoped she had.

Ish finished his drawing and decided to take his template down to the arboritum to sketch some of the exotic species of flora and fauna located there. He headed down with his green flowing robes draped over him.

 

As he entered, he felt the presence of all the living entities around him. About half the plants were in bloom from the part of the arboritum he could see. the walkways meandered throughout the facility, and were lined with benches at certain vantage point. Ish seated himself across from a giant "wroshyr tree"-as listed on the small computer reference screen near it-from the planet Kashyyyk. Thankfully the tree was quite young as they could grow kilometers tall. He pulled out his template and began sketching the contours of its bark.

 

He felt a special air of calm surrounding himself. He seemed to have a connection to these plants, as he did back on Dantooine, where his family also had a large plant growing business. He had loved plants, but was only well versed in the plants of his planet. He began shading the small inlets between the lines of bark and the knobs of the trunk. His thoughts centered again on his advancement within the use of the force, so he attempted again to draw using the force. Again he wasn't quite as accurate with the strokes on his template.

 

He went back to drawing manually. His thoughts dwelled on the serenity he felt while in this part of the vessel. As hopefuls past, he could also feel that they too were calm and in a peace-like state. Ish at that moment realized what he would like specify his studies in when a master took him as a padawan learner. He wanted to become a Jedi scientist. He wanted to grow plants to create places like this, and help people heal. He wanted to make lightsabers to stand the test of time like the wroshyr trees on Kashyyyk. He felt very pleased with himself. This time had not been easy for him, and he was engratiated that he was able to come to a concrete decision. Now all he needed to do was keep training and find a master or hope one would fine him.

Ish gives a quick nod and an ingratiating smile to see his friend again. His heart leaped! She had found a master....or better a master had found her. He was very happy for her. Ish diligantly went back to his sketching. He saved his current sketch and switched back to his previous first drawing of some sort of structured architecture. This was Ish's journal. There was no need for words. He could look at the picture, and remember the place and time......combined with force, he imagined he'd even be able to travel back to that place within his mind.

 

He decided to take a break from his sketching, and go take a long deserved rest in his quarters. Walking back he saw even a few more new Jedi hopefuls and Masters. Maybe one of these will become my master he thought to himself with delight. In any case, he knew he could wait...He had already made it this far.

Ish finally wakes up from his sleep quite refreshed. He staggered over to his bathroom and splashed some water on his face and washed his hands....He let out a sigh of contentment. He doned his robes of green again which he hadn't worn all that much yet. Ish decided he would go train some more and then get something to eat. As he left his quarters he decided to pick up the lightsaber he was issued, and grabed his template and attached it to his utility belt.

 

As he walked down the hall he had an epipheny of sorts. He decided maybe he would leave Manaan to travel a bit around the core systems and see the species and cultures that the order was protecting. No sooner had he envisioned this thought then he received some sort of omen from the force. It was a calling of sorts. He couldn't be sure what it was though...he had never felt this before. He was being called to Coruscant were he'd been only once as a small child.

 

Well....should I heed whatever the force is telling me to do, or ignore it?.....NO! I've got to go.

 

Making up his mind Ish headed to the massive hangar located on the upper four levels of the vessel. He was made to sign a few documents, and was scanned for his piloting abilities before the attendant droids were willing to relinquish a Jedi Starfighter.

 

Ish climbed into the cockpit, as the on board R2 unit beeped at him. Ish replied "we're heading to Coruscant....shouldn't take long....I'll have you back in time for an oil change haha." With that he boomed on the controls as the fighter thrust up and forward jutting out of the hanger just missing the door opening for it. He could hear the beeps of the droid in his cockpit as he flew through the underwater world. He glanced back admiring the sleak beauty of Jedi's new home. Quickly he glanced forward to see his fighter break the surface. In no time he reached the atmosphere of manaan. He didn't see a hyperdrive motivator onboard and wondered how he was to travel to Courscant.

 

As he approached the upper eschelions of the atmosphere He could make out a circle of ring-like devices. The droid took over with a jolt of the ship., and steered the ship into the middle of one of them. "Hey!" Ish said as the droid took control. Beep beep beeeeep is all he got in reply to which he sat fast and waited for the droid to lock in. Another jolt and the ship was one with the ring. Ish assumed that this was how they would be traveling through hyperspace. A list of coordinates with their locations listed came up on the computer screen. Ish selected Coruscant and headed off in a burst of blue with a flicker of white.

  • 2 weeks later...

Ish gave Jaina a small push to get her back upright, and shot her nervous smile directly back at her. He had seen Ashley around the Eternal Vigilance, but hadn't spoken to her at all. He gave Jaina a small nudge towards Ashley's direction. He crossed his arms.

 

It's good to be back he thought.

"If you would excuse me Ashley and Jaina, I'd like to return to my quarters and shower up before I get something to eat." Ish made his way down the hall, but quickly stopped and ran back to Jaina. "Here's my com-link number Jaina...If you need anything or want to meet up later, just give it a buzz"...."It was nice meeting you Ashley, I hope to see you around. Take it easy."

 

"Okay see you later Ish," both of them said it almost in unison. Ish could feel a bond between the two.

 

Ish scampereed off down the hall back to his quarters where he officially felt back at home. He disrobed, and entered his shower.

(( Thanks Jaina, you can do that any time as long as it serves the purpose of furthering the story...Just dont make me do anything too stupid haha))

 

Ish reflecting on Andons previous comment about how things would be interesting decided to remark about the situation. "You know there is something about Jaina that just seems to spark up a hint of controversy...Almost a breath of fresh air." Ish stuffed his face with an unknown food which was usually the case here. It was good none-the-less. "She seems like a breath of fresh air....But"...Ish paused to ponder his choice of words."I don't know how I would put up with she and Ashley," Ish belowed with laughter to which Andon also laughed.

"Hi Eli...Long time no see....How have you been." Before Eli could answer, Ish interjected...."I appologize....This is Andon," he said pointing to the man sitting directly across from him.

 

"Andon, Eli is an old friend of mine that I met back on Hoth." Ish gave an excited look towards Andon. Ignoring whether or not Eli wanted to, Ish asked Andon, "you don't mind if she sits with us for a bit..do you?"

Ish wasn't sure how to answer Elis' question. The mysterious woman whom he'd met on Coruscant in the Last Call seemed about the closest thing he could say he had to a master....She seemed to watch out for him when they left Coruscant like a big sister.

 

Ish pondered the question a moment and then answer, "Well I have met a Jedi long in exile...more so on her own terms. She is to be knighted soon however, and I can't help but have the slight feeling that I am to eventually become her Padawan."

 

"She and another aquaintance are coming down here to meet Andon and I." Ish paused momentarily, and scanned the surrounding mess hall, and glanced at the entrance..."I do sense that there is some connection that she and I share." Ish quickly hesitated, and became silent. He did not want to be over confident or jump to conclusions....."Truthfully Eli, I can't be sure of anything. I am not that strong in the force yet at all."

Ish gave a wave to Andon and turned back to Eli to see what she thought of his answer to her question. He could sense something within Eli that seemed distant, like she was not fully there on Manaan in spirit. He gave her and unconvinving look of ambiguity hoping that she would ask what was on his mind.

Ish brought his attention back to Eli. "Nothing really," he said in reply to Eli's question. "Things seem to go in spurts here. Thing went quite slow for a while back at the old academy on Hoth, and then quickly escalated into the battle. Then I came here where things slowed down again until I met Jaina." Ish took a gulp of his drink, and a couple of quick spoonfuls of food. "I think I'm just looking for consistency in the happenings of my life, and maybe even a way to forget about the battle. For some reason it haunts me."

Ish excused himself from the table with a polite nod and wave to Eli. He walked over to Darex, whom he had not talked to in a while. As he approached he saw Darex was sitting with a few hopefuls he'd never seen around before.

 

Ignoring their emersion in conversation Ish interrupted. "Hi Darex, how've you been?" Ish noticed the two other hopefuls looking up at him, and gave them a polite wave with his hand.

A grin came across Ish's face at the thought of Skyes greeting. Then Ish sighed slightly as he began to tell of his confusing ordeal. "Well I did go, and I met a Jedi there...Jaina Skywalker." Ish looked back at the entrance to the mess hall. "She's supposed to meet me here in the mess hall, but she's running late. We met in the Last Call, and she flew me here. I can't get ahead of myself, but I have the oddest sense that she will train me once she is fully knighted." Ish glanced around the table at the other faces then back to Darex. "What have you been up to? Have you been on the Vigiliance the whole time?"

Ish laughed with amusement. "I wouldn't really call what I've been doing adventures. I guess i could have easily gotten myself in trouble by mentioning I was a jedi hopeful to the wrong person, which I thankfully did not do. We're not looked on as highly as you'd think out there I guess."

 

Ish thought there was a need for a change in subject, as he figured Darex already knew the Jedi weren't looked upon highly, or he would at least let him find out from the eventual master he would receive undoubtably.

 

"I didn't know that there was a council meeting," Ish said with surprise..."Hopefully they will attend to some things such as hopefuls needing masters." Ish gave a chuckle as he knew how he and Darex both wanted masters, and to officially begin there training one on one.

Ish sighed as Ashley told him of Jainas departure. He accepted it thought with a heavy heart and a nod to Ashley. He returned to the conversation at hand between Darex and the newcomer Kamsie. As they chatted Ish thought to himself

 

Looks like Darex and I are on the same ground again...without masters

 

He was glad more so now because Darex wasn't alone anymore, and they both would not have masters together. Quite a glum prospect, but none the less Ish returned from his daydreaming to look up intently at Kamsie as she spoke to Darex.

 

He couldn't help but have the distinct feeling he might see Jaina yet again.

After listening to Camsie speak, Ish interjected with his interpretation to Darexs' question.

 

"I think it's very relavent for someone from a peace loving species to join or want to join the Jedi, as I'd say we in fact stand for peace throughout the galaxy." With a pause Ish let a smile come over his face. He continued, "whether or not the rest of the galaxy knows or believes it." Ish let out one of his unceremonious laughs.

 

"I appologize for interupting."

Ish glanced at Darex who seemed to be already eyeing him up as if he wanted Ish to go first. Ish looked guilty, as he felt he had done a bit too much speaking already when not even initially invited into the conversation.

 

He grudgingly began his take on what he wished to accomplish." I think I'd like to also go into healing, but more so with the study of certain flora and fauna to find herbel remedies, or key ingredients to certain vaccines and medicines. I guess a Jedi scientist is what you could say I want to be."

 

Ish reguarded his lightsaber with his fingers. A scientist was a very admirable job, but he thought it a bit dorky. He still wanted to be an accomplished defender, and learn the force and lightsaber techniques well.

Ish wasn't sure himself what was going on. There were only a few things he could surmise. He decided to tell Malak what he knew.

 

"I think that it has something to do with the Sith." A glum look came over Ish as he paused. " I don't know if you were with the jedi, but we were ruthlessly attacked at our former base on Hoth by a Sith Imperial task force....There seems to be sense of urgency from what I've heard to get back at the Sith, and quell their evil ways. Darex and I made friends with another jedi who has just returned with her master to Manaan. She might actually know something herself."

 

"That's all just a guess really. But I couldn't blame the council for attempting to quell such an evil power like the Sith."
