Flowery Field Trip

[ Stories ]

The planet Qvavilebis, a small world in Sector 10 -6, has reported the upcoming blooming of the Qvavi flower after which the planet was named. The flower is twenty kilometres in diameter, and blooms once every few centuries when the planet approaches the sun from its strongly elliptical orbit. Padawans Jedi Fecta Trigiel and Shebi Ajava are sent to witness the event.

During the trip the retrofitted cargo hauler that is their, and the other passenger's, transportation to Qvavilebis breaks down. The pilot and the co-pilot use the only escape pod (since it is a cargo hauler, the cockpit doubles as an escape pod) to get to safety, leaving the two Jedi and the passengers stranded in hyperspace.

After a small investigation during which the self-destruct is accidentally activated. the two Jedi discover that the ships maintenance is more than lacking, and frequently employs 'the cheap option'. While Trigiel starts work on repairing the ship and making sure that they can get back to normal space, Ajava tries to keep the other passengers calm. Luckily for everyone, Trigiel is successful in his endeavour to reroute power to the hyperdrive.

Back in normal space, Ajava has given up on trying to control the passengers and went looking for two of the passengers who sneaked out of the passenger area, and are now missing. She finds them in the cargo hold. Trigiel starts working on a way to get to the emergency beacon, which is mounted on the outside of the ship for unknown reasons.

Before Trigiel has to go outside, they are contacted by the Praetorian cargo hauler 'Goldrush', who offers to tow them back to Unity.

The next part is not reported to the council.

Between the passengers there was a mother Gamorrean with 7 small children who were making a lot of noise. To make the trip less of a pain for all the passengers, Trigiel mind-tricked the children to be silent.

Back in normal space, once Ajava located the two missing passengers, a Theelin girl and a Zabrak man, without Trigiels knowledge, she mind tricked the man to go back to the passenger area and the girl to stay a little longer. Trigiel found the two girls, Ajava topless and the Theelin naked, on top of each other. The cyborg padawan commanded Ajava to behave herself, but didn't spend more time on it as he was busy getting the ship together.

After they were rescued by the Praetorian freighter, the two padawan had a small discussion about what happened earlier and they decided not to mention it in their report.
