Dusk had set upon the desert planet of Utapau, the darkness of the night sky being offset by the faint distant glow of artificial lighting emanating from the countless potholes that littered the planet, along with a couple of bonfires, the flickering orange light reflecting off of the metallic hulls of the two large ships that had made landfall. The immediate air around the ships was filled with chatter from the various groups who had nestled around the impromptu campfires.
Amidst the group that surrounded the larger of the bonfires sat an ashen haired female, contently slouching deeply against the back of her chair. Her bright emerald hued eyes panning between two rebels that were regaling the small gathering with tales of their misadventures, a light smile curling on her lips as she chuckled as the tale built up to the punchline. "So there i was my kecks around my ankles, mid squat and look up and the kriffing imps are standing right over me" the greyhaired rebel concluded, illiciting a roar of laughter from those who were listening the crewman's encounters.
Shaking her head, the Ashen haired female slowly drew a hand over her features, using her fingers to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes before bringing a bottle of beer to her lips and taking a light swig from the beverage. "What about you Master Swan?" The crewman inquired, turning all attention onto the ashen haired Jedi. Pursing her lips in thought Eisa mused on what would have been her most embarrassing moment during her years within the Rebellion, whilst there had been countless incidents during her late teens, she couldn't say she had been caught with her pants down.
"Well there was Hoth" Eisa spoke out before taking another swig from her drink. "Probably was my third mission a good ten years ago. We got sent to Hoth to repair and energise an old shield generator, whilst the rebellion was establishing the base out there. " she continued giving a bit of history to the tale, getting a few nods from the more venerable members of the crew. "Master Reach, thought it would be a good idea to send two green teenagers out alone to fix it up, so we land by the complex blizzard playing something rotten with the scanners, can't see Kriff ya know" She added as she swirled the liquid around in her bottle briefly before draining the rest of the contents.
"This was before I even was aware of what the Force was, so we thought nothing of it, wrapped ourselves up in about three coats and made our way to the boarding ramp, open the doors and step out. Then what comes bursting out of the blizzard? A kriffing wampa, bout three times the size as Hask over there" Eisa continued, before guesturing over towards the Mercenary pureblood who had joined along with his own crew in the social gathering. Reaching off the side, the Jedi held out a hand and summoned a fresh bottle out of the ice bucket into her hand. "Naturally I Just shriek like a little girl, digging into my pockets for anything to throw at the kriffer, spanners, fuel cells you name it I threw it to scare it off" she added before taking a moment to pause and open the newly retrieved bottle, her gaze moving over towards her Padawan, figuring that she was giving more ammunition for the teenager to use against her. "Then I remember i actually have a blaster, So as its starting to climb up the boarding ramp i pull it out and fire off 4 or 5 shots"
A light smile crossed her features as she could feel her cheeks start to redden from recollection, at that point she barely could hold the weapon straight. "It was no more than 2 meters infront of me, and every kriffing shot missed!" Eisa contined with a groan, and shaking her head at the chuckling that had started to ripple around the fire. "Whether it was the Force or just sheer dumb luck, one of the blaster shots hit a fuel cell I had thrown at it's feet, the Wampa went up like a wild fire, for two Kriffing months I could smell nothing but burnt hair" the Jedi master concluded before burying her face into her free hand.
