Plucking the Fields of...Dragons? (Beast Hunters)

Oka followed Marrik as he mentioned something. "Got it." he said with a nod.

[member="Marrik Aloxum"] (sorry for short post, not familiar with planet)
 
Marrik stepped ahead of Oka, in case one surprised them, he didn't want both of them to be taken out in one strike. His nose detected something sweet again, He looked Northwest.

Oka, can you get to a vantage point in the trees and look for another Aal'run, I can smell it nearby.

Nodding to Marrik, Oka force jumped onto a real tall tree. He was amazed by the sight he saw. There was many of those creatures flying around. Some trying to kill each other and some keeping to their self. He wasn't sure whether it was normal to see that many in one place but he did see it. Oka looked down to see Marrik walking and called out, "Up ahead. Four or five."

Marrik scrambled ahead to the brush line that separated the hunters from the Aal'run. He peeked through the brush to see three immediately within view and two beyond flapping their enormous, yet virtually useless wings. They fluttered about as the other three fought over some prey.

He snuck forward and radioed to Oka, "Move quietly. Maybe we can get one or two of them before the others notice. I believe their eyesight isn't very good. Get to my position then we'll take on separate ones simultaneously. Blitzkrieg style."

Bow at the ready, he waited for Oka to move up. Once he was there, they'd split up and strike at the roots of the two closest dragon flower beasts.

Oka hopped in one tree after another until he could reach the beast. He turned on his comm and said, "I'll try and be quiet. I can't force cloak yet unfortunately. I'll try and chop off the head while you get the roots, okay?" He grabbed one of his sabers ready to leap on the beast.

Marrik nodded slightly to Oka and gave him a hand signal to move on 3...2...1...

In a flash, Marrik was running at full speed. Keeping low as he moved to conceal his presence, he was within striking distance of the nearest Aal'run and drew his vibrosword, ducking under the deadly vines of the beast as it was preoccupied with another dragon. Spinning at the last second, Marrik used the momentum to drive the blade through the dragon root flesh. He felt resistance and pushed harder, slicing straight through. The beast screamed in pain as it began to topple towards Oka's awaiting lightsaber.

Marrik continued on to the next one as quick as he could to catch it off guard before it realized what was going on.

The beast made the sound, that's all Oka needed to hear. He leaped up igniting his saber as he came down and sliced its neck using its body for another leaping spot with the short time to falling beast offered. Noticing Marrik using the opportunity to pounce on another beast, he leaped onto the next dragon ready to cut the head. What he didn't know was the beast could probably still reach him if its wanted him dead. All he could do is hope Marrik would cut the roots or at least do something in time.

As Marrik moved to the second dragon, Oka finished off the first. They were both on the second but this one was more responsive, as the throned tentacles shot up to Oka in an attempt to snatch him in the air.

Marrik reacted quicker, flipping the vibrosword in the air, he drew, and slung three arrows into the oncoming tentacles, knocking them off course to allow Oka to adjust. As the dragon roared in anger, Marrik kicked the hilt of the flipping sword sending it flying into the mouth of the dragon. The blade could be seen protruding out the back of the skull.

Marrik sprinted up the beast's chest as it reeled back in an attempt to stay alive, but as it's head came back up, Marrik's bow had three more arrows ready to meet it. Sticking into its throat, finishing it off. Marrik withdrew his sword from its corpse as it toppled to the ground with Marrik riding it like a wave...

There was still one more within killing distance... "Gotta keep moving Jedi"

In relief, he stayed calm as he too rode down with it to the ground. "Trust me, death isn't on my agenda." he said with a nod as he ran towards the next one igniting his other saber. Over the years, you learn some techniques. One Oka had learned was throwing a blade to slice or stab something. That's what he did.

The speed he was building up gave him just enough energy to take this one down all my himself although he was too confident... he threw one of his sabers towards the beasts neck while leaping close to the roots and slicing them with his other blade. He expected it to drop almost immediately but Marrik could finish it off if it somehow survived. Oka used the force to pull his thrown blade back and closing it at the same time.

Marrik followed Oka as he attacked the last of the three Aal'run. He didn't know Oka was a duel wielder, nor how adept he was at it. The double attack was very effective at dispatching the last dragon flower. The creature cried out in pain as it was uprooted and impaled at the same time.

The dust was settling from the three fallen dragons, and there in the middle of them all were two very deadly hunters. Blood dripped from Marrik's vibrosword as he sheathed iron his hip. He pulled out his comm and radioed [member="Mrrew"] for pick-up of the three new kills.

"Marrik to Mrrew. We have 3 more. Two for Oka and one for myself."


[member="Oka Osaa"]
 
A few minutes after the call, the sky buzzed with the sound of a large freighter once again. It wasn't long before the same freighter as earlier appeared overhead, and began to lower itself near the corpses. Once it lnaded, the same tall human as before stepped out, followed by the same torop of droids... And Xavier Mgoo toddled out behind him, squinting heavily, wearing a long reddish robe, and holding a glowing orb. "Happy life day!" The old man exclaimed, staring at one of the droids. The other hunter ignored him, continuing to direct the droids, now carrying dragons, back to the ship. Soon the three creatures were onboard, and the taller hunter was escorting Xavier back into the ship.

(2 for [member="Oka Osaa"], 2 for [member="Marrik Aloxum"]. Keep up the good work! :))

As the ships left, Oka attached his sabers to his belt. He gave Marrik a look as he said, "That second one almost had me. Thanks." He knew that teamwork led to success, that's the whole reason he caught up with him. If they were going to clear the forest full of them plants, they probably need smart thinking. While scanning the area, he didn't see anything or anymore of those plants. "Want to go that way?" he asked pointing north.

[member="Marrik Aloxum"]
 
Marrik nodded when Oka thanked him for his assistance. They looked North, Marrik chanted again, and the wind began to blow towards the pair. He could smell the sweet scent that the Aal'run gave off. Turning to look at okay he nodded his head and drew his bow.

"I can smell them. We are close."


Marrik started off on a jog to get the blood flowing again. The next kill awaited the bow and sabers of the two hunters.

The scent was intriguing. However, every hunter knows where to put his/her nose.

"Wish us luck."

[member="Marrik Aloxum"] (Sorry for short post, gotta do some stuff)
 
Marrik made tracks in the ground as he ran North alongside [member="Oka Osaa"], they each had two kills and now were seeking for more. Marrik hoped to find more of the rare types. Azure and Rosado, then there was the legendary and only rumored Licorice. It was said to be the only one of its kind and massively powerful. More than likely it was one of the few hive minds to exist.

Marrik caught wind of the sweet indicator the dragon flowers gave off and vaulted into a tree. Climbing to the top of the tree, Marrik could make out two shapes. Two beautiful, wonderful, rare Azule and Rosado Aal'run walking their way. The lumbering flowers must be in search of a new place to root. Calling down to Oka, he would have him set up in an opposite tree to the flowers paths and ambush them when they got near.

He then radioed to his Pheonix Destroyer in orbit and requested two dropships to be launched to their position to provide assistance. "Captain, send dropship Alpha-1 and 2 to be decoys for our hunt. Only utilize main guns to keep the prey distracted. Over and out."

"Oka I'm calling in air support, we will want these two to be distracted. Once they have the attention of the Aal'run, we will sneak up and strike them from behind."

The sight was amazing. Two rare beasts right before his eyes. That's wasn't something you could see everyday. It wasn't like being a tourist. The plan was simple, he needed to get in position on a tree to ambush them. Hopefully one at a time but Marrik had tricks up his sleeves. "I can make a blockade or hold them down until air support comes if needed. It likely that they'll flee if they hear or see an attack. But its up to you." he said on the comm awaiting a respond.

[member="Marrik Aloxum"]
 
They will not flee, Aal'run are territorial and aggressive, they will attempt to take on the incoming Dropships, and we will take them down. Once they have been distracted, use our speed to execute them swiftly. The dropship's guns won't penetrate their carapace, so we wont lose any to the fire, keep aiming for the roots and head, that's their softest spots.


Marrik got a comm from the pilots that they had a visual and were starting their attack runs. Marrik waved to [member="Oka Osaa"] and dashed through the trees to gain ground on their targets. The two airships opened up with their front blaster cannons, peppering the forest below, along with the two Aal'run. 100 yards lay before the two hunters before they would reach their prey.

As the Aal'run tried fending off the airships by whipping their tendrils into the air, the gunships dodged and fired to keep them occupied while their unknown attackers came up from behind to strike.

Getting the signal, he immediately started jumping trees. Each tree after another, he could feel their presences closer and closer. Oka had a feeling those two wasn't the only ones around though. He could feel the living force behind him. He just kept on jumping hoping he wouldn't get killed. Finally, when he was close enough he force leaped high above the beasts and prepared to land on the Azule. Yes, it wasn't very sneaky, but he wasn't jumping on it to kill.

[member="Marrik Aloxum"]
 
The drop ships had engaged the Aal'run and the Jedi was on his attack path, this gave Marrik the chance he needed to get into position. Leaping down to the ground, Marrik sprinted as hard as he could to the Rosado as Oka had selected the Azule. As the dragons were getting bombarded with blaster cannon fire, Marrik chanted to himself as he ran, his sword drew itself as he moved, with his mind, he threw it at the roots of the beast, it caught one of the feet at the base of the body, slicing a deep gash into the flesh, toppling the dragon to the side.

It roared in pain, turning it's attention towards Marrik.

The fight was on.

Now that he was on the azure, he jumped off of it now that its path was on him. These beasts acted crazy but powerful. For a Jedi, this may seem easy but that's not always the case. Oka jumped one tree after another until the beast was headed towards a path where it'd get stuck. The beast came diving down at him but got lodged in between two trees. The beast yelled and cried but most importantly, it couldnt get out.

Without any waiting, Oka ended its life and drew his sabers. He first cut off the roots as the beast became weak and walked around the tree to its head. Such a beautiful beast but the mission was simple no matter the costs. He cut the neck as it became lifeless.
