*slowly slides his pistols back into their holster and withdraws a much larger assault rifle and takes aim* "I'll open fire in 5 seconds, and you can try to flank it while I distract it."

*Nods and slowly takes one step over* *The vornskr arches it's back and continues to growl fiercely* At last if I can't feel the force right here, it can't either.

*says quietly: "Three...two...one."* *opens fire into the head of the creature*

*Just before Jango began firing the vornskr had leapt toward him to attack. Wounded and angry, it took a few steps back and fought the storm of blaster fire, then leapt at Jango again* *In that instant Soleia signals for Jango to stop firing and lunges at it from the right stabbing her lightsaber into the creature's skull*

*watches as the creature falls to the ground, dead* "Good job, babe!" *sees a flash behind her* "DUCK!" *shoots a small mallard duck that was flying behind Sol* "Woops...."

*Watches the duck fall to the ground* "Wow...""Remember kids, never attack something unless it attacks you first, or if it appears as though it is about to attack." "I'll remember that next time I'm attacked by a vicious duck." *Looks at the vornskr.* "Are you sure it's dead?""Yes, it's dead." "Can we go now?""Yes, we should keep moving." *Continues on*

*lets everyone pass before picking up the duck and stuffing it in his pack to cook up later* "Keep a sharp eye out, I bet other vornskr in the area heard the noise and may come check it out."

"Yes." *They enter a clearing in the forest where there is a little hut* "This is it. Now I just need to..." *Walks over to a tree and examines it* "Not that one." *Walks to another and runs her hand over the tree* "Hmm..." *Moves to another tree, and sees the little mark carved in it* "Ah-ha." Now which direction was it from the tree? *Measures out four wide steps then jumps on the ground* *Goes back to the tree and measures out four steps in another direction, and jumps on the ground again* *Stares* "What's mom doing?"

*turns to Kistal* "Apparently she and Jace did something here when they were last here that she's retracing her steps to hopefully find a clue that Jace left." "I think she lost her mind."Or that could be the case."

*On the third try Soleia measures out in the right direction and when she jumps there is a hallow sound beneath her* *She bends down and shoves aside leaves and dirt, and feels for the release on the cache door* *Finding it she turns it and a door into the ground opens* *Looks at the others and grins* "See? I'm not crazy." *Climbs down into the cache and looks around* *She finds an empty rum bottle with a piece of paper inside* *Takes the cork off the bottle and turns it upside down so the paper comes out* *Climbs out* "I got it. Let's see what it says." *Everyone is silent as she unrolls it, but as she looks at it her brow creases in confusion* "What is this?" The paper:

*glances at the piece of paper* "Yes, you're not crazy, but apparently Jace is crazy." "What does it mean?" "Once again, I have no idea. Hopefully your mom will be able to figure it out like last time."

"Yeah...hopefully." *Folds the paper and tucks it into the folds of her tunic then closes the cache door* "Let's head back to the ship."

*Trips over a root and bumps into Kistal* "Watch it, Neeson!" "He didn't mean to, Kistal." "Yeah, I didn't mean to!" "Sshh." *Pauses and looks up into the trees* "I think I heard something. Let's hope it's not another vornskr."

"Or for its sake, another duck." *hears a loud roar come from a bush up ahead* "Well, it's definitely not a duck, and most definitely a vornskr." *points rifle at the bush and looks at Sol* "Same plan as last time?"
