Kenshin's calm storm blue eyes stared back at the man. It wasn't his place to lead the unit. But if it was wrong for him to lead them out, Irman would stop him and take charge.

He nodded at the man and silently led the group out the way they came, his lightsaber infront of them all.

The Nohgri was Unsteady on his feet. Barely able to stand any more. He expended all of his considerable force power to get them there. Now it was time for the Jedi to take a turn.

The plan that he had was being followed to a tee. The commando team sneaks into the compound undected. But inevitably he expected that they would so one of the corvettes was fixed up just enough to cuase another major distraction to the Krath. Allowing them to get to vonta in the confusion. The fleet from the alderaanian guard was the last phase. They ran a distraction to the krath while they made their get away.

The Aiki leaned on another palidin. "Lets go then Jedi."

They made their escape, finding chance to relax in the relative safety of their ships, Mitz finally setting the unconscious woman down when the Doctors came in, letting them attend to her, making sure that she got their deserved attention first.

His ship, via the slave circuitry and the droids aboard, had come to him, his body finally giving out after the woman was safe. The Squire droid went to work immediately, Repairing, rearming and refurbishing weapons as needed, even taking time to take a plasma arrow launcher apart to see how it worked, logging the design in its database. The two medical droids went work immediately, dragging their master inside his ship, an ancient Phoenix Hawk transport, a miniature version of the Firespray deisgn popularized by KSE in the years after its construction.

He was stripped, his body checked for immediate injuries, the droids setting to work on those first. Confident that the immediate danger was out of the way, They immersed him in the bacta tank, the liquid engulfing him, beginning the healing process, putting him back together after the long shoot out.

The squire droid, its task completed, started flitting about the area, observing everyone else, its photoreceptors actively scanning the people.

Kenshin sat observing the room around him though not really seeing. His mind was on Vonta. She'd probably be okay, but all the fighting had made him agitated. He was constantly feeling the Force energy around him for reassurance.

His small craft had been retrieved and was probably being fixed up as he thought. It didn't matter if he got his fighter back or not, but having it back proved to be good news along with the sucessful rescue mission.

'Hmph...sucessful...it depends how you look at it...'

His mind replayed all the fighting. He had let the Force flow through him and do all the work. He wondered if it was the Force that did the killing or him...

MItz emerged from the Bacta tank, his body whole, but the scars evident. It would take some extra work before all the scars from this battle mended. He dressed quickly, the necklace around his neck, pendant displayed proudly. there were sixteen crystals on it, from sixteen lightsabers. He was tired, but he was most certain that the droids had finished their work. He came down off the ramp of his ship, looking around. His squire was studying Teepo weaponry, while the Jedi was sitting quiely, agitation criss crossing his face. He walked over the man, his own face scarred from battle, his arm still having burn marks trailing down it.

"how is the woman?" He said, the first thing he had heard in a long time. His hearing was back, the trauma from teh battle having been repiared while he was under. He sat down, studying the jedi.

The Alderaanian guard stood on the observation deck. The cadre of force sensitives in the mass of people he had helped to rescue kepted watch over Vontas inert body. The Defender star destroyer Alderaans heart was the least damaged of all of the ships in the fleet. Witch was not to sat much. The Krath had harnessed the power of the dark side in a way that gave them a deadly edge in naval battles.

His aged second in command Toryn sabreen a Teras Kasi master sad that he had never seen the likes of that kind of power sense the death star. And being a 60 year old man that looked like he was in his prime that was saying alot. A new day and another new foe. Well his life seems normal enough.

In the infirmary the area was full. Irman Nogar had a room ajacent to his pupils. The Aiki was a jedi and a powerful one. He would have to make note of that in the future. Vonta was at one point his student so any teacher of hers was a friend of his.

The pysical scars that vonta endored were easy enough to heal but the emotional had yet to be revealed. That is why he set the ship in route for the Jedi academy on naboo. The jedi well have their chance to help.

Kenshin's storm blue eyes gazed at the other man as he watched him. He himself had nothing to hide. He looked exactly like all of the other Jedi save for a few common variations like the color of their lightsaber or outer cloak. The only thing probably worth noticing was the glint of silver around his neck hidden between the folds of his khaki tunic.

The other man on the other hand was more interesting. He had a whole necklace of lightsaber crystals around his neck and had used a whole arsenal of blasters, pistols, and other projectile weapons. He had done well in battle, but his brashness during the fighting made Kenshin wonder what kind of person he was.

Kenshin removed his chin from its resting spot in his hand and straightened up. His quiet, mellow voice broke into the silence.

"I am Kenshin Katarn, a padawan of the Jedi Order..."

He waited for the man to state his own name.

"I am one who has no name, existing as a spirit of battle when the need moves me. To remember the past would be nice, but i do not believe it will ever happen. I was laid up here with a damaged engine, which my droids had fixed by the time i heard the scream in my mind."

"WIthout solitude, i have almost nothign in this life, i fought to return that solitude, mow that my mind is quiet again, i think i may move on, to Barab, to try and find a part of myself. It has been an interesting encounter, Kenshin Katarn, of the Jedi Order."

He moved quietly, tapping his droid on the shoulder, heading back towards his ship, standing on the ramp, making sure that the droid got in first.
