A loud, high pitched, beep echoed throughout the cockpit of Adron’s borrowed Freighter. Pulling his head from the console, he glanced around the panels curiously, trying to find the source of the beeping. Finally, he realized it was the alert from the Hyperdrive, signaling that he had almost reached his destination. After turning the alert off, he rubbed his eyes a bit, recovering from the unexpected nap he had taken. Looking up to the flashing lights of Hyperspace, Adron worked to stifle a yawn.
What the hell was he doing? He asked himself, leaning back in the pilot's chair with a searching gaze. With the revelation that the Emperor of the Galactic Empire was a Sith Lord, Adron had been shaken. Yes, he had professed loyalty to the man, but once again he had been tricked by the Sith.
He hated being made a fool of.
He needed time to think, to reflect. He had done much over the past few years to put himself in a position of influence, but he was not a single step closer to taking back what was stolen from him. In reality, it felt like he was farther than ever.
The freighter gave off another series of beeps before the flashing lights came to an abrupt halt. They were replaced with the sight of a large orb, obviously covered in a lushful terrain. Felucia.
No one knew he was here. Not Lady Kay, not the Grand Moff, not his apprentice, not even the Emperor. Because he was not going here for any of them, he was going for himself. His eyes took in the scene around the planet. There didn't seem to be any Sith patrols in the area, however he was not intent on testing his luck. Immediately Adron worked to bring his ship into the planet’s atmosphere.
Strapping himself in, he prepared for entry, not sure how the rather outdated freighter would handle the planet’s thick atmosphere.
A rush of wind and heat came over the viewport, causing the sight to be distorted. Rather than rely on the window, he turned to the radar, which showed his distance from the ground and any objects he should be wary of. It was not long before he had breached the upper atmosphere and was leveling the ship out. Exhaling silently, he glanced down to the thick treetops that his the jungle below.
It was years since he had visited Felucia. As he looked around the trees, searching for any signs of something familiar he realized something. He hated this planet.
