((Well, so far, Jo and Kyla got your character, Mrolaar, tied to a tree. While Cade and the other group are back in the Mynock, still on Yavin. They're deciding whether they should heal Da-Zel or not. But now they decided to hunt down another Sith that's prowling in the jungle. Cool?))
Alyna wiped her tears and sniffed. Still sitting on the ship's floor, Alyna turned, and looked at Deliah. "What? What's wrong?"
The old female shaman glanced at everyone, sitting in the shadows, just watching the whole scene.
Deliah flinched at Alyna's words. The girl was already crying. "Um... I uh.. I saw a lizard... A really big lizard, and it was heading towards the bridge. Alyna! Come with me! Finding it will do you some good." She smiled and moved to block her view of Da-Zel. "Come on get up! Lets go!"
Deliah nodded and put her arm around Alyna. "That a girl... Now Alyna listen to me.. I need to tell you something." She forced a smile and turned to look down at the younger woman.
Alyna looked at Deliah and nodded. "M'kay. What'cha wanted to tell me?" The young woman was curious to what Deliah wanted to say. She twitched her fingers nervously.
She bit her lip and tried to think of a way to word what she wanted to say... Dang it why couldnt she lie to other girls? She could lie prefectly fine to Cade and the other guys but girls, no way. Del sighed heavily and her smile faded a bit. "Alyna.. Listen. I wanted to get you out of there... I saw no lizard."
Deliah sighed and bit her lip. "Um... Well... I know you've been around death a lot so I thought it would be helpful to get you out before you realised that.. Da-Zel is dead."
Alyna glanced at Deliah with shock. Then she pushed her away, saying, "No! No!! She's not dead! No!!" The frightened young woman balled her fists in her hair, and began to sob with tears. "This can't be..."
While they hugged, Alyna suddenly pulled away. "No! No! It's not fair for her to die..." She stopped crying, and wiped the tears away. But she was still upset. "I... I have to go meditate in the jungle. Alone. I'll see you guys in a little while."
Deliah sighed and slowly stepped up to stand beside Cade. "Do you think its a good idea to leave her alone? We dont know who the other is... Someone could get hurt if we dont stick together." She took his hand and gantly ran her fingers over his palm, hoping he'd see what she was saying.
Everyone else came out. Jariah stepped down the ramp, carrying Da-Zel's body, while the old female shaman got off and stood there. "Go in, child. We'll be out here waiting."
Alyna smiled and nodded. "Thank you. Thank you all." With that, Alyna went inside the Mynock to meditate.
"Don't know. Probably best thing to do is to honor her by placing her on wood and burning the corpse. That's what the Jedi probably to do their people."
(Meanwhile)
While Alyna was meditating in the middle of the ship's floor, she heard a voice.
"Alyna..."
The young woman opened her eyes, and glanced around. "Hello? Who's there?" Suddenly, a ghostly figure stood before Alyna. She raised her eyebrows with amazement. "Who are you?"
