Walking down the streets of his hometown, Hykoru felt a growing anger and idignation at what the droids had done here. He stood looking at the ruins of the hospital where he was born, his knuckles white due to the tightness of which he held his fists.
Well, why shouldn't it be destroyed like the rest of my life? He thought in despair. My folks' home was burned down long ago with them in it... the love of my life has been taken away from me.
He stood there silently. No tears came. The capability for tears seemed to have gone from him months ago when he burried his fiance. In place of tears was a cold, hard fire in his eyes.

A young woman emerged from some rubble a few feet away from where Hyroku was standing, she saw him but kept her head down looking at her feet as she climbed over part of the destroyed building. She nearly slipped and fell once but was able to catch her ballence herself and climb all the way to the street where she stood quietly looking at Hyroku, wondering who he was.

Hykoru blinks as he sees movement among the rubble and watches as a young woman rises. For one dilerious moment, he believes it's his dead fiance, Fionna, come back to life... but that was only a moment, and he realizes it can't be her. His heart falls in his chest. Yet when the young woman stumbles, he goes to help her, but by the time he gets there, she regains her balance and is able to make it to the street without his assistance. Without thinking he puts a hand gently on her shoulder. "Are you alright?"
His baritone voice is soft and quiet, filled with concern.

She lifted her head and looked at him through her deep blue eyes, she nodded a little and answered in a soft wisper "I'm fine." She tilted her head to the side looking at him before softly asking "Who are you?"

Hykoru takes his hand off the woman's shoulder and holds it out for her to shake. "Hykoru. Hykoru Tokai... and you are?"

She smiled and shook his hand "I'm Heather.........Heather Notrine. Pleased to meet you sir."

Looking around at the rubble, Hykoru wonders, "How long were you there?" He swallows as he wonders if there are any more survivors under that rubble.

"I've been running around the city hiding in rubble piles like that at night, all who live are clear of there I assure you." She looked down sadly "The droids destroyed most of the city and there isn't much left.............as you can see."

Nodding in response to Heather's observation of Tyrena's condition, Hykoru speaks softly. "Is this your home? Tyrena I mean."

"Yes, I have lived here all my life. And then the droids had to come and destroy it like this." she spoke, the last part was added in a bitter tone as she lifted her eyes to look at the rubble again. She quickly brushed away a angery tear that was finding it's way down her cheek.

Hykoru didn't need to see Heather's tear to sense her sadness. He could sense it through the force. Part of him wanted to withdraw as it threatened to bring up all his sorrow he was trying so hard to bury. Yet, he longed to be with another person. Was weary of being alone. "I was born here, and lived here until I moved to Corruscant when I was still young. My parents lived in a house two blocks from here..."
He stopped as his throat caught. He still felt it difficult to talk about. The fire that took his parents happened only a week before his fiance was murdered. He looked away from Heather as his eyes hardened once again. He could not cry.

She watched him closely seeing something was bothering him greatly, a slight sigh excaped her lips as her eyes scanned the street. She felt somehow that he had lost someone so she said softly "I'm sorry, it's never easy to deal with." Her thoughts wandered to her own lost but she pushed them away and brushed her blond hair back from her face.

"I... have been trying to deal with it for months... then this happens." Anger and bitterness fills his voice. He looks over to Heather, and his countenance softens. "I'm sorry. You must have lost someone as well... probably more recently than I.."

She nodded not trusting herself to speak as she struggled to swallow her tears that threatened to fall again. Finally she spoke softly "The droids, they completely destroyed our house. Most of my family was inside when it the missile hit............." her voice trailed off and she looked away.
