<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay left the atmosphere of Ossus and start cruising through space.</span>

"Take a seat and buckle up. I'll show you performance."

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay flipped a few switches and got out of his seat for a second and dropped his bag inside the little walk-in area. Ade-Ay pulled down a screen in front of him. He entered a few coordinates, and the ship was ready to go.</span>

"Wait until you see it's speed in atmosphere."

Kamon smiled. There was no way this ship was faster than the Hope. Heck, the only ship thatcould compare to it was the Millenium Falcon.

"That's good. The Hope is the fastest ship there is though. No offense, but this bucket of bolts wouldn't compare to its speed."

He almost let a smirk out. He didn't smirk. He never smirked. It was just something he didn't do. He looked over at Ade.

"I'll race you sometime."

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay stopped. He turned and looked at Kamon with a stern face.</span>

"You don't know that, Kamon. You're on. Next time we race, you're toast."

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay turned back and turned on the hyperdrive to full. It left into hyperspace with apush of a lever. Ade-Ay was a little annoyed that it was referred to as a "bucket of bolts." He ignored the comment and continued flying his freighter.</span>

Kamon started laughing. It was hilarious.

"That was funny man. You're right. I don't know. But I still want to race you sometime. And, I still think I'll win."

He looked around a minute wondering why Ade had taken it so seriously. He had only been joking. He didn't actually mean it. But, it could be true.

"So anyway, what do you have planned?"

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay always took things too far, and sometimes personal. Ade wasn't sure if Kamon meant something out of it.</span>

"Sorry Kamon, sometimes I'll take it too far. Watch out when I do." <span style="color:teal;">Ade laughed.</span>

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay was busy making some changes to the freighter's flight sequence. He was getting ready to take it out of hyperspace when it beeped loudly at him. Hyperdrive Failure. He knew right away. The ship started running bumby, then it immediately left hyperspace and they were floating through the great beyond. Fortunately they were heading straight towards the planet they wanted to land on.

Ade was rushing to the back. He ran through the doors. He got to the engine room where everything shut off. Starting to tamper with it, it was jolting in speed. There was something loose. It could take weeks to find out what was exactly wrong with it, and may be never before they fix it.

Ade yelled to the back at Kamon.
</span>

"Take the pilot seat, I hope you can fly this without engines!!"

<span style="color:teal;">He was busy trying to get them working again, hoping not everything shut off. Because if the sublight engine wouldn't work, they were toast. Ade turned to the sublight engine. It seemed to have automatically shut off from the power surge. It looked like it was on, just not running. He entered a few buttons on the pad next to it. It didn't work. The only last choice was using the force to slow themselves down, if they couldn't, they're going to hit the planet at hundreds of miles per hour.</span>

Kamon smiled. Of course he could pilot the ship. Heck, he could even stop it.

"No prob."

He jumped in the pilots seat and drew on the Force. It flowed through him like never before. Reaching out, he used the Force to push against the ship. The ship began to slow down until Kamon eventually stopped it.

They drifted in space just above the planet. Kamon turned towards the back of the craft and spoke.

"We're stopped. All you have to do is get it fixed."

"If it's at all possible to fix it, that is."

Ade-Ay was quite uncertain that it would be fixed anytime soon. It might take forever to fix it. Ade sat down, not even thinking about going outside. He started pulling apart the hyperdrive with all of his tools and things. He was stumped, he couldn't see any signs of failure in it. There had to be a problem somewhere else.

"Take a break Kamon, it might be a long while before this will be running properly again."

Kamon looked back towards the rear of the ship. Nodding, he spoke.

"Ok, Ade. Tell me if you need any help. Can't say as I'll be any help, but it's worth a shot."

"Well, you can go see what kind of environment we're in, where we're at, and set up camp. We might be here a long time..."

<span style="color:teal;">Ade-Ay started pulling apart the hyperdrive core to see what he could find.</span>

Kamon nodded.

"Right. I'll grab some stuff and go have a look around."

He walked back to storage and grabbed a bottle of water and a few ration bars. Not exactly great stuff, but better than nothing.

He walked over to the hatch and lowered the ramp. Walking down, he took a good look around. Nothing seemed odd. It looked normal to him.

He walked off into the woods. Looking around, the trees and animals seemed normal. He didn't see anything he thought was dangerous, but he kept walking. He was looking for a good spot to set up camp.
