The Fall of Hion the Herglic (Jedi Order)

Meta strode on and past the rubble were other Jedi lay wounded. Resisting the urge to limp, he made his way down the corridor to his right. Lucky for him, the medical centre wasn't too far away, his master and Nova were a few metres behind him. "Any plans to stop Hion?" He asked, slightly tilting his head in his masters direction.

Diana slid to a halt before one of the massive holes that Hion had formed in his escape, she peered through the broken walls until she saw the skyline of Coruscant in the distance. In that moment she knew that the massive alien had escaped, that the murderer of her friend had gotten away. Silently she raged, she wanted to scream, to yell, to lash out.

She wanted to do everything that would make her not be a Jedi. She wanted to lose control, she wanted to fight and kill.

Tears rolled down her face as she walked through the rubble of Hion's path. She reached the edge of the very last hole, the one that lead to Coruscant itself. She looked out across the skylines of Coruscant, tears flowing from her eyes and despair in her heart. Another Jedi lost. Another Sith to run free in the galaxy, another piece of the sacred temple destroyed.

Part of her wanted to stop. To quit trying to fight the Sith and Empires of the galaxy, to simply give up and go home. The Kiffar sat down on the edge of the temple, the blade Tyrfing clattering to the ground as she threw it beside her.

She no longer cared for the sword as she once had, no longer sought to keep it from being damaged.

Perhaps it was symbolic, though it was hard to tell. Diana simply sat on the edge of the Jedi temple, crying into her own palms.

(This will be my exit post so please don't try to cheer Diana up)

Ella puffed out her cheeks, taken aback by Joshua's sudden movement. She nearly opened her mouth to complain, to tell him that she could walk herself, but then the words Carn spoke to her on Tython came to mind. "Jedi can be humble, but sometimes you have to take credit for yourself and you've done a good job here." So she just quietly mumbled to the Jedi Master, "Thanks," and waited until she get to the medical bay. She used her good arm to cling onto Joshua's robe to hold herself up, blushing slightly because she felt embarrassed at being carried.
 
Josh figured she'd probably be able to get herself to med-bay, but with the way she was, he wanted to make sure that they got there to treat her as soon as possible.

"Sorry" he said with a laugh, trying to remain in good humor despite the situation. "I just can't have you tripping up everywhere and risking making it worse. The faster and safer, the better" he explained.

Once they got to the medical bay, Josh motioned toward the droid to get them rooms as soon as possible. Quickly, they were admitted into a room and Josh gently put Ella down on the bed that was supplied.

"You rest for now, they'll take a look at you, probably submerge you into a bacta tank, and you'll.... Most likely be good as new" he said, smiling a bit. "You want me to stay just in case, or am I alright to go check on Meta and the other girl for a moment?"

@[member="Ella Nova"]| @Meta | @Sochi Ru |

"I'll be okay Master. Thank you for carrying me." It was probably ill advised, considering her injuries, but Ella couldn't help herself. Sleep came over her quickly, the energy she had mustered to ensure that Sochi, Meta and the others were okay, fading. She lowered her head onto the pillow and closed her eyes, dead to the world.

Only figuratively.
 
He nodded, patting her on the head as she began to doze off.

"You did good" he said. "I'll be back to check on you in a bit, if they haven't submerged you by then"

As she fell asleep, he moved the hair from her face and adjusted her position for comfort. No Jedi should have had to endure or see what Ella had seen today, especially not one so new. The least he could do was provide friendship and comfort to the poor woman.

His duty completed for the time being, he left the room quietly, looking around to see if he could spot @Meta.
 
Meta had taken Sochi into the room opposite Ella and his Master, laying Sochi down on the bed. He groaned, the bleeding had stopped however his legs and arms had given out, and he fell back into a chair beside Sochi's bed. A droid now tending to her, he sat there in pain. Letting a surge of calmness come over his body. "Ahh.." He groaned, feeling better now that he had gotten to sit down. The door remained open outside the medical room. He had done his duty, for now Sochi was safe.

"You feel that?" he asked as he walked into the room. "That's how your body feels after a hard day's work. For a normal man, this is brutal, for a Jedi, it's Wednesday" he said, grinning.

He sat beside him, taking a breath.

"How is she?"

@Meta
@[member="Sochi Ru"]
 
"We get attacked by Sith whales ever Wednesday?" He asked, ad more a joke than anything. Sitting up a little more, he took a moment to remember what the medical droid had said. "It's mostly bruises and cuts, however. That bang on the head was pretty bad. She might have a concussion and her organs are in good shape." He said, still rubbing his cracked collar bone.

With nothing but chaos happening around him as droids and personnel tried to clear and clean the rubble and damage Dar’rak figured he would lend a hand. As he was doing so he’d got a familiar feeling that was drawing him to the medical area of the temple. It wasn’t until he arrived that he understood why. Several Jedi were coming in and one of them was carrying @Sochi Ru, one of the Padawans he had recently gotten to know. "Sochi Ru!?"

Walking up to the two Jedi who had carried her in Dar’rak asked him about what had happened to cause such devastation. His voice cold and graveled even for his young age. “Master Jedi forgive me, I was in the hanger when I felt the temple walls shake like never before. Then I felt a dark presence expand outward from somewhere inside the temple. May I ask what has happened to my friend Sochi Ru or why there are so many coming into the medical ward?” Dar’rak had already figured there must have been some kind of attack but he had not yet gotten any answers from the various passers by as he had made his way here. He didn’t even realize his training saber was still tightly gripped in his hand.

".... Ok, that usually happens on Tuesday" he joked, smirking. "Hion was late this week"

His gaze turned to@[member="Dar'rak"]. "Peace, Padawan" he said calmly. "Hion The Herglic has turned to the dark side, slaughtered a child and attacked us all" he said sadly.
 
Meta smiled but it soon was distinguished as he was reminded of the events that had just transpired. "Master." Meta turned in his chair. "We have to get that lightsaber back from Hion." He said, straight out. Not wasting any time with pleasantries. "Soon, before he's fully consumed by it." He said, slowly getting into a position to get up. He felt like they'd have to spring into action. Whatever had attacked Hions mind had consumed it pretty quickly. Meta wanted to save what little of Hion was left.

@[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]
 
"Nooo, we should let him keep it and get corrupted more" he snarked. "That's Carn's responsibility right now, and I don't know where the kark that old coot went"

He sighed as he relaxed his shoulders,

"Blast it..." he muttered. "First Jak, then Aleidis, then Saoirse, and now Hion's gone karking dark. When does the madness end?" he whispered to himself sadly. "When does the death and corruption end?"

"Never." Meta muttered, replying to his masters words. "You can't have light without dark. You must have both, or neither." He said, displaying what he meant with hand gestures.

"This fight will never end. Don't ever expect it too Master." He said, leaning forward putting his hands together under his chin.

That Dar’rak was displeased at the news he just heard was no false tale To hear of a Jedi falling to the dark side was heard of in his studies, but to actually know of one right there in front of him was a whole other story altogether. He listened as @[member="Meta "]and Master @[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"] did a little back and forth so that he could get more of the story about Master @[member="Hion the Herglic"]. Dar’rak finally realized that he still had his lightsaber hilt clenched in his fist and returned it to his belt for safe keeping once he learned the danger had passed.

Peeking past the two Jedi at @[member="Sochi Ru"] Dar’rak sighed to himself that she seemed to be alright. He could not tell if Master DragonsFlame was being serious or sarcastic in his tone when addressing the other Padawan. “Master, is there anything I may be able to do to help? I don‘t want to know that if there was anything we could do to save one of our own that it was not done.”

Dar’rak looked at Meta with a bewildered expression. He could not actually be serious could he; thinking that there was no end it sight to the corruption and darkness that plagues the galaxy? True to a certain extent there would always be shadow a type of darkness as long as there is light, a shadow is always cast. What did this mean for their cause?
 
[Before] Space Port:

The large commoner's space port served not only for the ongoing landing and leaving star vessels, but was also a commercial hub for various vendors and storage facilities. 500 Republica's maintenance crew had purchased a small warehouse attached to the space port and it was there that a young Mon Calamari tech was making a drop off of extra supplies. Donatos had originally arrived on Coruscant a few months ago, enrolling in the Senate's internship program that neglected to mention the internship was unpaid. In order to support himself the Mon Cal took on a trades job that came naturally to him, improving and maintaining machinery. It was only less then a month ago that Donatos was interviewed by a group of Jedi who were escorting the Vice Chancellor back to the Senate, did they explain to him he had a connection to the Force. Because of curiosity and eager to gain prestige among his supervisors in the Senate he accepted the training of becoming a Jedi initate, despite the fact he was probably as old as some young Knights were in the Order.

His schedule mainly consisted of interning in the morning to mid evenings, then beginning his tech job until night and on his days off he would attend classes at the Temple....with younglings. It was a bit embarrassing, but certain masters were aware of Donatos being an unusual case of someone in early adulthood, having Force potential abilities, but no formal training whats so ever. Thus unless a suitable Master could be found for him who would have the patience to train an initiate despite his age up to the rank of Knight was a very short list....at this point, no Master has put in a request for Donatos. Leaving the Mon Cal stuck in his secluded studies or class training with children.

The Mon Calamari wore his uniform, a bland light grey jacket, pants and scuffed work boots. On the back of his jacket was the logo for 500 Republica's maintenance work force, the design was an outlined shape of the Senate Building along with iconic building silhouettes in the 500 district. Donatos sighed, at his monotonous lifestyle, despite being accepted for Jedi training, he still had to work as a regular civilian to pay for rent, food and bills. The Temple only boarded full members or children, Donatos was somewhere in the middle. A living loophole he told himself, but he sighed again as he unloaded his supplies into the storage facility inside the space port.

Just as he was pushing his hover sled past the main hangar bays, did he see and 'sense' a swirling amount of rage and negative energy. His eyes were wide open when a large amphibious being bolted through the space port and knocked a pilot to the ground, the man was nearly unconscious. Donatos released the hover sled and brought his hand to his tool belt, his instinct told him to activate his training saber given to him by the Master's of the young ling class, but he doubted a training saber could do anything useful to that monstrosity of rage and muscle. The whale like creature had boarded the pilot's ship and took off. No alarms went off, because they probably didnt detect how fast the whale creature came into the port. Donatos ran over to the pilot who was slowly starting to black out by the hit he took. Donatos helped the man rest his head gently on the cool metal floor before standing up and looking for a communications terminal.

He was still new to the Order, he had no rank or prestige to make any demands to investigations so he did what he could, he contacted the Jedi Temple. He didnt know too many terminal codes in the temple except for the class room's which he doubted anyone would be in and the medical bay, which was an emergency contact list told to all younglings and...Donatos. The Mon Calamari put in his limited credentials and was given access to communicate with the medical bay inside the Jedi Temple.

[Now] Jedi Temple, Medical Bay:

From one of the communication terminals attached to the wall, a circular ring began to light up and then projected a fizzled blue image that increased in quality. Revealing the head and upper torso of Donatos. His clearance id should have came across on his project as well so whomever was there could verify he was part of the Order...even if it was a youngling's level of access.....
The holographic Mon Cal looked around the Medical Bay, he spotted a few wounded Jedi on med beds and at least one Master @Joshua DragonsFlame standing by a masked Jedi @Meta.

He was human and male that was all Donatos could tell about the Jedi, but he quickly delivered his message to the Jedi, his name and credentials scrolled beneath his half projected body. "Master Jedi, there has been an unusual incident here at the Space Port near 500 Republica, an immense being of origin I do not recognize save for being aquatic looking has trampled through the port and incapacitated one civilian also hijacking his ship. The being has left Coruscant, I sensed the Force within him, but there was something not right with him either. I am sorry Master Jedi, I am not adept enough to give anything more...." The Mon Cal's projection paused for a moment, before his eyes brightened up. "The pilot will most likely be taken to a near by hospital for treatment, but his flight records and ship identification could still be logged in here at the space port."

Again the holo Mon Cal paused, this time his projected eyes studying the wounded Jedi in the background, realizing they were there for something much more greater than a common ailment he inquired, "Is this related to the Force hijacker?" The Mon Cal indicated with his holographic hand to the wounded Jedi.
 
"KARK!" he said, frustrated.

"Yes...." he responded to the hologram. "I assume Master Dista will be with you shortly. He was chasing the Sith Lord Darth Orcus, who just defected from the Jedi for the Sith, out of the Temple. It's likely that Orcus has now escaped the system. I encourage any able bodied pilots to pursue him, but it's likely that he's left the system by now. We apologize for the incident" he said sadly.

@[member="Donatos"]
 
@[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]
The holo image of Donatos gave a reluctant shrug "No need for apologies, Master. It wasnt my ship." The Mon Cal said trying to lighten the depth of misery most likely going on in the Temple now. "I am not familiar with Master Dista, I am however a skilled enough pilot and gunner. With permission, I could take one of the Republic fighters docked here and trace the Sith's ship based on the data we have from the last pilot. I wont pursue, Im not that cocky, but I could serve at least as a scout and keep the Temple informed on his whereabouts or at least last trajectory if he can be tracked. Or should I wait for this Master Dista? and we will take a double fighter to locate this Darth Orcus?"
 
@[member="Joshua DragonsFlame"]
Holding both hands out as if pleading or acting out an ancient theatrical play, the Mon Calamari rebutted. "With do respect Master, time is of the essence. I will inform the station crews here to prep a few individual fighters and at least one shuttle craft. I can leave now in a single fighter and leave an open comm for the Temple and remaining Masters to follow me. Perhaps the Masters and I can rendezvous at Darth Orcus' location in that time as we pursue, the Temple could provide judgement in our next move? In apprehending....or stopping the Sith by any other means." The Mon Cal brought his theatrical pose back down to his sides, the half projected portion of his body was just a floating torso and head now.

"I'll take a fighter now and keep my comms open for the Masters to follow, they should be able to catch up." Donatos stated as if he was an experienced naval officer...though he was probably compared to an officer as a scuttle pilot, but he thought he gave a convincing plan of action. That authoritative demeanor then cracked when he chimed in "I uh...will need my credentials upgraded before the station crews will give me access to a Republic fighter."
