He grunted at Kree, but said nothing. There would be time later to ask why he disobeyed a direct order. But first they had to avoid the droids. The good news was that these seemed to be simple droids. Just vipers. Recon model droids that didn't have much in the way of firepower. Not to mention they had the good fortune of this model self destructing after relatively minimal damage. The other Acolytes had done as they were told and that left Raith to deal with the droids. He took in a deep breath, to focusing himself. The universe seemed to breath with him. As he inhaled, things grew closer to him, and when he exhaled things moved back. Force forms weren't common. In fact they were almost forgotten about in this day and age, but he was low on energy and suddenly thankful he remembered this.

This form allowed him to strengthen his connection to the Force. Allowing him to use less energy without sacrificing power. He gripped one of the droids through the Force, it's movements suddenly halting and hurled it at another droid. The two of them were consumed by an explosion and Raith turned his attention to the remaining few. Eezeo was quick with those ones, however, breaching their hull and starting their self destruct sequence. The sentient troops were easy enough to slip away from. Raith grabbed Kree and dragged him along as they followed the others. Eezeo remained behind. The droid was an assassin, or at least had been originally programmed as such. Designed to hunt Jedi, a few troops were nothing to the little guy who hid in the taller grass waiting for the soldiers to get closer. While the Arcanist and Acolyte fell Raith let out a small Push to coushin their impact.

Uphill the troopers approached the scene of the fight. They looked around and Eezeo skirted around them, avoiding their sight. "You don't think they jumped, do you?" The other soldier scoffed. "Hell no. After a crash like that? They're lucky to be alive. Stupid Sith..." They turned down another path and were about to move when golden durasteel tentacles lashed out from the fauna and wrapped around their necks. Electricity pumped through them, knocking them out almost immediately. Eezeo giggled in binary and removed their communicators. Moving to the cliffside he looked down for signs of the others. Raith motioned for Eezeo to join them and the droid launched itself down. His guardian angel was light, so it was easy for Raith to catch him with the Force. He joined the Acolytes and smiled.

"Ah. Eezeo, what would I do without you?" He pet the droid like one would a dog and took the communicator. "Now...maybe we can start to get some answers."

Lairiel simply frowned at the acolyte in the water, who was floating down with whatever was in the crates he had just gotten free of the ship. "That's exactly how you wind up dying alone, with no one to care." she called out to him as he was rather dark with his words. He basically wanted to sacrifice them up there so that they could escape. She knew it was a fairly sith-like mentality, but she didn't think that made it right. The Sith could stand to be a bit more united and a bit less inclined to stab each other all in the back, she thought. Even if the voices in her head didn't agree and just wanted her to kill everyone who tried to get close. She blew out a sigh before she moved over to the other female who had also jumped in to the water and had pulled herself out of it, Lairiel's unbroken left hand reaching down to offer help in getting her back to her feet.

Whether it was taken or not, Lairiel would be waiting for the others up top to make it down to them, and she wasn't inclined to move from this spot unless they had and also wanted to move on. She couldn't see or hear what was going on up there, but the fact that the other two hadn't come down after them made her a little worried. On the other hand, the fact that the vulture droids weren't still pursuing them was a good thing. Her hand shifted to the lightsaber still on her belt and she slowly pulled it off. She wouldn't be much good, using it in her left hand. She looked towards Alaisia and hesitated for a few moments, then nodded towards her broken arm. "Is that your good arm?" she asked, and if Alaisia answered that it was her off-arm that was broken, she would offer over her own training saber to the woman.

It wasn't much to look at, just a dull gray thing that was fairly beat up. Certainly beat not having a lightsaber, though. "My good arm's broken." she would explain as she offered it over, having noted that the woman didn't seem to have a lightsaber of her own. Then she would shift back to wait, looking up towards the cliff again.

Alaisia allowed Lairiel to help her pull from the water, but turned down the lightsaber she was offered. "My arm's not broken," she said. "And I have a lightsaber. You may need that one for yourself. Even if your good arm is hurt, it's better than being undefended."

She pulled the lightsaber given to her by V from where she kept it hidden under her flight suit and clipped it to her side before turning her attention to the still-bleeding gash on her arm. The pain was ebbing off now, but she wasn't sure if it was because it was healing or if she was loosing so much blood that the sensation was getting familiar.

After re-tying the cloth over the gash in her arm, Alaisia turned back to look up the cliff to see V and Kree making their way down slowly. She didn't see V's droid, though and hoped that it was fighting the ones that had attacked them.

"No disobeying an order and charging into battle while you and you're alley are wounded his how you end up dead. Wasting a more skilled warriors distraction by sitting and hoping it will all be ok is how you end up dead. If I didn't care I wouldn't of attempted to save her or thought to pull these supplies and weapons in hope of having something to fight enemy with then our fading powers", he replied to her with venom though in a way they were both right. In any case it made little difference as the to missing members of the party seemed to come over the side of the cliff much the same as the rest of them.
