RE: Stranded

     Ishkan sighed, still nervous about anything that could be lurking. He reluctantly walked over behind her and knelt down, placing the blaster on the ground next to him. He lifted the back of her shirt, and looked quickly for any serious injuries. Her implant made him pause for a second, but he quickly recognized it for what it was.

     After a minute of picking dried blood off to get a better idea if she had any injuries, he dropped her shirt back down.
     "Well, you are really bruised, as I imagine you had guessed. I don't see any really bad injuries. A few scrapes and scratches, but nothing serious. One might need some stitches once we get back to civilization, but still not bad." he paused, "Looks like the most of it is just that you've taken quite a beating. Tight muscles and such. Nothing a warm bath won't take care of."

     He grabbed the blaster and got back to his feet and looked around, fully suspecting to have gotten snuck up on while he was checking Tawny for injuries. Once he was satisfied that there was nothing around, he turned back to Tawny.
     "Why don't you get some sleep? I'll keep an eye out." he said.

RE: Stranded

"Okay," Tawny said, yawning. She lowered herself to her side and curled up. "And thanks." She added, almost too quiet to be heard.

At first she almost slid into sleep immediately, but a stray thought made her jerk awake with a small intake of breath.

Sitting up, she quickly reached down to her pants and unzipped a pocket, pulling out her picture. She sighed in relief once she saw it was still there.

She looked it over for a minute, a ghost of a smile on her lips, before sliding it back into her pocket, zipping it closed and falling back over.

This time nothing stopped her from falling straight to sleep.

RE: Stranded

     Ishkan watched as Tawny scrambled for and found the piece of paper that she had had earlier. He knew it must be important, because that was the second time that he had seen her staring at it. Part of him wanted to see what was on it, just because if it was that important to her, it must be intruiging.

     He sat for quite some time, watching and waiting, letting Tawny sleep. He closed his eyes and listened to the birds for a while. He caught himself starting to fall asleep, and decided to get up and walk around for a few minutes. He looked at the sun, and guessed that they had been here for about two hours. He decided to let Tawny sleep for another 15 minutes, and then wake her.

     He noticed there was a small ditch a just a small distance away. He decided to check it out, since it wasn't more than a few hundred feet from where Tawny slept. The closer he drew to it, he realized he could hear running water.

     When he got to the small stream, he stood standing at it for a short minute, looked around, and then unzipped the top half of the flight suit. He got down on his knees and splashed some water on himself. It had been a couple days since he had gotten to refresh his scales, and they felt quite dry and itchy. The stream was well appreciated.

     After he felt refreshed, he zipped back up his flight suit, and turned back towards camp to wake Tawny back up and let her know about the stream.

RE: Stranded

Tawny was gently roused from her sleep and informed of the stream.

Groaning and snapping her back before standing up, Tawny took off her sling, her splint stayed on, and walked over towards where Ishkan directed her, absently telling him to keep watch while she cleaned herself up.

Five minutes later, Tawny shivered as she kneeled down in the stream, her right arm pressed in front of her bare chest.

The stream had come up just past her knees while she was standing.

Her clothes sat on the bank of the stream in a pile.

Taking a deep breath, Tawny pushed herself under, silently glad beyond all measure that she had had the foresight to make her implants waterproof.

RE: Stranded

     Ishkan stood on the other side of a large tree, waiting and keeping watch while Tawny bathed the blood from he skin. With how cold the water had been, Ishkan imagined it wouldn't take her long. He also hoped the cold water would help her swelling go down.

     A couple minutes later, he heard her get out of the water. He hoped they hadn't spent too much time in one area. Not to mention that this was probably a local drinking source for animals and other beings in the area. The quicker they got away from the water, was probably for the better.

     "Are you decent?" he called around to tree to Tawny.

RE: Stranded

Zipping her pants up, Tawny called out an affirmative before walking over. Her clothes were wet and clinging to her body in several odd places, she was a bit chilled from the water, but she was no long as sore and it felt good to have the blood and grime off of her body.

Her hair was still wet and she had it brushed back, by this point she had decided that it would be better to have her cyber eye available for scanning at all times. Besides, she figured Ishkan wasn't the type of person... Like being to bring much, if any, attention to the scarring around the eye.

As Ishkan helped her back into her sling Tawny absently smoothed her hair back, a sudden bout of nervousness flashing in her mind. How far were they from his ship? How dangerous was the space in between them and the ship?

Would they even survive?

Tawny pushed the thoughts away, it would do them no good for her to think like that.

Less than two minutes later, they were walking once more.

RE: Stranded

(OOC: Funny. I was just planning on bringing them back around to the ship. XD)

     They walked for a few more minutes when they came to the place that Ishkan recognized as where Niel had fallen behind. There was was blood on the ground and on the large branch that Niel had failed to clear. His hand started shaking slightly, thinking back to the day before.

     He hopped over the branch, and turned to make sure Tawny made it over alright. He then reached in his pocket and took out Tawny's other blaster, and continued forward. He saw the deep impressions in the ground where the orc had chaced them down the pathway, and lighter ones leading back.

     They walked for a couple of minutes more, keeping low and quiet. Ishkan saw a reflection through some trees, and knew it must be the ship. He turned to Tawny and smiled, pointing over it.

     He was just about to move forward to it, when all the birds in the trees above them suddenly became hushed. The sound of silence echoed in Ishkan's ears, and he knew what was coming. A twig snapped of to their left, a low growl to their right. They had been seen. They were being hunted.

RE: Stranded

Tawny's hand immediately flew to her saber and she looked around wildly while taking a step back towards Ishkan. Her cybernetic eye scanned the dense trees around them but to no avail, there was too much blocking her line of sight.

She glanced at Ishkan before turning back to the trees as a growl echoed around them.

As the trees bended out of the way and she was finally able to catch sight of their stalker, she gulped heavily once she scanned it.

"Frag." She muttered, tightening her grip on her saber while backing up until she was right next to Ishkan. "This... Is bad."

RE: Stranded

     "Here, take one of your guns back. That will at least give you some long distance shots at them before they get up close." he said, passing Tawny one of her blasters back.

     He then reached down and grabbed the knife from his boot. It wasn't going to be much help, but at least it was something. The first orc attacked, exploding forward from some underbrush. Ishkan fired, missing the first time, making contact on the second shot.
     Another orc busted out of the brush behind them. Too close for comfort.

     "We're not going to make it." Ishkan thought.

RE: Stranded

Tawny fired at the seconds orc while moving backwards, it barely scraped its shoulder and the orc showed no sign of slowing.

Tawny glanced over her shoulder towards the ship before turning back and firing another couple shots at the orc.

"What are the odds we can make it to the ship?" Tawny asked Ishkan, moving closer to him.
