Re: Chapter 2C: Sanctuary
Granite ignores the wounded trooper next to him, charging for the bridge instead. He's been in similar situations where he takes the front line to let the Masters work unimpeded, and he has no intention of letting the pilot shoot Master Tan again. He is a little off balance from dodging the last blaster shot, but he tries to concentrate through the distraction.

Re: Chapter 2C: Sanctuary
Granite ignores the clone trooper and rushes forward towards the clone naval officer in the other room. Turning the corner, his lightsaber pike lunges and slices tearing through the officer's clothing and leaving him seriously wounded. Reacting to his wound, the officer drops his blaster.
Round 2: Hero, Hero, Clones, Hero
With Granite dealing serious melee wounds to the clone naval officer, the last remaining clone trooper stands in the middle of the room surrounded by Master Tan and Ashara ...

Round 2: Hero, **Hero**, Clones, Hero
Ashara takes aim at the last clone trooper and releases a flurry of energy bolts. Her shots strike the trooper in the chest knocking him down and out of the fight.
Round 2: Hero, Hero, **Clones**, Hero
With everyone down except for the naval officer, the officer bends down to pick up his weapon and fire upwards into Granite's hip. The blast reflected off of his Jedi Temple armor, but leaves a small bruise on his side.
Round 2: Hero, Hero, Clones, **Hero**
Master Tan moves in behind Granite and brings his lightsaber down against the naval officer. With a single strike, the officer falls to the floor.

Re: Chapter 2C: Sanctuary
Turning their attention back to the prisoners, they notice Jocasta Nu, the Chief Librarian of the Jedi Archives restrained. She isn't moving and appears to be either sedated or exhausted. In the second cell, a young boy no older than a few years old lays unrestrained on the floor. The young boy's eyes flicker for a moment as he attempts to watch the battle, but he doesn't move himself to stand or sit up.
Jedi Master Divak Tan and Jedi Knight Granite stand within the situation room where the officer and pilots attacked from and fell. After a few moments, Divak Tan moves towards one particular lever and tells Granite, "At the same time, lower that lever. The cells require two independent levers to be lowered at the same time to shut them down."
Standing on the opposite side of the room, Granite lowers his lever at the same time as Divak Tan. In the prisoner holding area, Ashara says, "It's working the shields are down."
Master Tan looks to Granite and says, "Help them to the ship, I'm going to check the navcomputer to see where the ship was heading and then wipe their systems."

Re: Chapter 2C: Sanctuary
Granite removes the restraint from the Chief Librarian, being as gentle as he can while still hurrying. If she has been sedated, given the stress on her already, rough handling might worsen her situation, especially if the drugs were given inexpertly. As he goes about it, he calls to the boy in the other cell. "Young man, who are you? Why are you here?"

Re: Chapter 2C: Sanctuary
The boy just says, "She was taking me to a temple for school."
Jocasta is groggy and her words slur a bit, informing the others, she says, "Youngling. I was taking them to the Temple before we were attacked."
Jedi Master Tan comes out of the cockpit and rushes to assist with holding Jocasta. "Let's get them to our ship and get out of here." He states.

"Got it." He gestures for Ashara to take the kid, then turns back to the bridge consoles to see if he can further cause any shenanigans to cover their disembarking and subsequent escape.

Re: Chapter 2C: Sanctuary
Granite rushes into the cockpit for a moment and enter the coordinates to the local star of the system. Once they break free of the ship, it will travel towards the system's sun.
Once everyone is aboard the Vagabond, Granite reseals the air lock and latch. Giving a confirmation to Master Tan, the Jedi master slowly pulls away and turns the ship towards their next destination. Several minutes later, the ship is in hyperspace.
Jedi Masters Tan and Nu collect everyone into the lounge area. "I set the course for the Saleucami system. There's another Force sensitive child that I would like to meet before the Emperor takes her." Jedi Master Nu begins. "I was on Alderaan with young Tomas Chias meeting with his parents. Once I returned to the spaceport for departure, I was apprehended by the clones. After speaking with Master Tan to understand our situation, I believe we should save any younglings that we can find. My second meeting was to be on the moon of Drenzor. I just hope we arrive in time before that child is taken."

Re: Chapter 2C: Sanctuary
With their escape to hyperspace, Granite sees they have time to bind wounds and recover. He wasn't yet in any danger of death, but still serious are the wounds and the need to address them. "Sounds worthwhile. Rescuing whomever we can, before they can be hunted down by this new 'Empire'."

Several hours later, the starship exits hyperspace and proceeds towards its destination. Having time to recover, Master Jocasta Nu and the young boy feel better and have rested.
Once the ship nears the verdant moon, the two Jedi Masters direct the ship towards a small town on a sea coast, before being turned away. Checking over their sensors, they detect another ship in the area and fly towards it.
"We're going to land near another ship out in the jungle. We believe they may be allies." Master Tan states to the others as they begin the landing sequence.
