h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

No one will train people now anyway. What's the point?

The Academy can only train those who are willing and present Chnei.

*looks down*

Yes, Master...

*walks over to Interceptor and activates transmitter toward hammerhead*

*switches off transmitter*

*looks to Annat*

Marol's wasting of our time will be noted. His meeting is cancelled both of us.


*looks into city* Call me when you have fied the ship, I'm going to see the work Cobal has done here. Keep an eye on Chnei.

*heads toward temple*

*watches Annat*

*slides out from under the Interceptor, takes a run up, nods at Chnei and launches a flying kick at the thruster array*

Just bear with me, I'm making progress...

*slides back under*

Aha...

*more welding and banging noises can be heard*

*looks puzzled*

Right... That's how I'd fix a hyperdrive too...

*WS9 lands and Co'bal and Craxus come down the gangway*

Hi everyone, what's going on

Um, well, Master Gr'jar and Master Annat arrived and Master Gr'jar has gone to see what you've been doing here and Master Annat is ahh... bashing, I mean fixing the hyperdrive... And um, they said something about Ma'rol...

*A hand appears from under the Interceptor and drags a power relay back*

*Annat sticks his head out*

I'm just replacing this relay, and we'll be fine. Gr'Jar's gone into the city. Ma'rol's refused to meet us, but no matter. If he wants me tried for this murder, he'll have to go through the senate.

*returns to work*

Murder? You're on trial for murder?

*wipes grease off hands and stands up*

Apparently the Kamino PM got bumped off whilst I was on my last mission. The ambassador thinks it was me, but he is criminally insane.

*looks at Chnei*

I didn't do it though, I've never killed anyone who wasn't attempting to blow, cleave or rend me apart at the time.

*opens a side panel on the interceptor and plugs in the hackbook to run a system diagnostic*

Hyperdrive's working though.

*looks uneasy*

Right, um, well, that's, ahh, good then.

What did you do to your hyperdrive in the first place?

It's a Novaldex J-77 Event Horizon engine. Put it this way, it's older than you and me put together.

*taps the thruster array*

This crate flew in the battle of Endor.

*smiles*

Cool. Old. Yeah...

So, why are we all on Coruscant anyway?

I'm here to affect repairs, Gr'jar's here because he was supposed to be meeting with Ma'rol, and I assume Co'bal and Craxus are here to start the renevations of the Academy.

*unplugs the hackbook and seals the panel*

Now why are _you_ here instead of training young padawan?

I...*looks down and goes quiet* ummm, couldn't deal with it on Yavin, and so I ummm, ran away, or, um, I mean, I left and then I went to Jo'tra's and then Co'bal told him to come here and he told me to come here, so I did, and he hasn't turned up and didn't answer his comm.

*shakes head*

Where is your commitment?
Jo'tra's ship is docked with the Hammerhead.

*turns to Co'bal*

Where is Anoon?
