The Outer Fringes of the Pyrshak System
Aboard the HWK-290 Light Freighter Hopskip
Aboard the HWK-290 Light Freighter Hopskip
They had just exited hyperspace at their destination when the hyperdrive gave out. The Jedi Master sitting in the pilot's seat cursed slightly, and muttered, "Again? Really?"
The Hopskip was an aging ship Von Raythe had "appropriated" from a band of pirates she'd met several years ago. She'd donated it to the Enclave on Arbra, but no one ever bothered to use it. Some said it was because the ancient freighter belonged to the icy Master Explorator, but in truth, no one trusted the kriffing ship. It was falling apart, and Von was tired to repairing it. Even with the newly replaced parts, it only barely ran.
"Arai," Von said to the young man sitting in the copilot's chair, "Could you plot a course to Manaan and fly it for me? Frakking hyperdrive motivator is shot, again."
While the young man had only been with Von a short time, she knew that he had grown accustomed to the old freighter's quirks, or at least she hoped he had. Either way, his Jedi records detailed that he was an accomplished pilot. Hopefully with their combined skill, they might just make it to Manaan in one piece.
