Skyler Cohen
The Jedi With The Cool Hair
Yup, just another day in the life of a Jedi padawan. A lot of things had changed for Skyler, well except for his charm and ability to instantly find trouble. And his ability to narrate. Friends had moved on, he was no longer the grandmaster's chosen one, and they no longer served chocolate pudding in the cafeteria because of some health kick the council was on. But that's not what was important.
Skyler had been assigned to a small team that consisted of a knight and a couple padawans for a routine peace keeping mission to the lovely homeworld of Ansion. There had been reports of poachers roaming the lands and massacring the world's wildlife population for sport and game. The world was lush with prey and the high winds and tall grass made it suitable for a fun challenge to even the most experienced hunters.
However, what the natives of Ansion saw was completely opposite. They viewed the poachers asan invading force that needed to be dealt with. They were no strangers to slavery, and how long would it be before the hunters turned from the wildlife to start hunting a more valuable commodity...slaves.
Indeed, there was a war coming, a war that no doubt the natives of Ansion would lose. The poachers were too well skilled and armed. It would be a slaughter if it came to war.
As the ramp to the shuttle opened, Skyler immediately felt the rush of wind flow through the opening and into his clothes and hair. It was a nice change of pace from the stuffiness of the shuttles' cramped quarters. The Jedi Knight had mentioned that they were setting down close to a nearby village, and the hike should only last an hour.
For the most part, the trek to the village was uneventful, until they found themselves surrounded by armed poachers. "IT'S A TRAP!" exclaimed one Mon Calamari Jedi. Skyler glanced sideways at him and couldn't help but mutter, "Really?" The Knight tried to diffuse the situation and explain that they were only here for peace and not to fight, but the greedy hunters only saw a chance for gain and opened fire.
Not wanting to harm any of them, the Jedi retreated behind the shelter of some large rock formation, and the knight instructed Skyler to get to the village and warn the villagers there that the poachers were close and they may be in danger. Skyler took off immediately, but found himself on an unexpected trip about halfway there, literally. Hidden by the tall grass, Skyler had fallen into an opening that led into an underground tunnel. His head wasn't so lucky, however. His eyesight went dim as he blacked out. Yes, I guess you could say that he had fallen and couldn't get up. If only he had one of those emergency button necklaces....
