Tishr ran though the woods carefully staying just with in site of the pirates, blaster bolts occasionally streaking trough the forest around him. He lead the pirates deep into the jungle away from their base before ducking into a long dead end canyon and scrabbling out over the canyon wall, loading his last clip of incendiary rounds while he waited for the pirates to fall into his trap. As the finally pirate sprinted into the canyon he stoop up and peppered the entrance and the wall of the canyon with rounds setting the whole canyon ablaze and the pirates with it.
Tishr slowly climbed down the slope leading to the canyon the fire slowly becoming less obvious as the sun rose. Tishr started hurrying away from the canyon not wanting to be there when the predators began to smell cooked meat.
As he approached the base he slowed down, but he found no pirates even at the base; unfortunately no slayn either. Tishr quickly started looking for and evidence of slayn finally finding a blood trail leading away from the base. He began following it down the hill holding his hold out pistol strait ahead.

Slayn tried to stand up but every time he tried it was a failed attempt so much for walking out of there. Nearby he saw a broken tree branch that was eleven inches thick and about five foot six inches in height. Slayn reached over and grabbed it placing it at a forty five degree angle to support his weight he finally was able to stand on his own. He began to maneuver with the broken tree branch using it as a crutch. Limping toward the nearest tree and leaning against it trying to catch his breath.
He attempted to listen for any signs of fighting but it was all silent something was either horribly wrong or just fine. 'Alright now I have to find the ship'

Tishr continued tacking the blood trail down the hill, before stopping suddenly behind a tree adjusting the straps on his armor to support his cracked ribs before before stopping near a large pile of dung, not unusual for a jungle, but what disturbed him was that he couldn't identify it. Tishr had spent almost five years and could identify nearly every large animal on Onderan or Dxun the thought of a large predator stalking the woods he knew nothing about set his teeth on edge. He slid his hold-out pistol into it's pouch before loading a clip of penetrating rounds into his rifle.
((bout time your guy gets hurt he is the reckless one after all.))

Slayn lifted his head to gaze at the empty cloudless sky the sun peeked through some of the surrounding trees. Almost not wanting to press on Slayn sighed and for a moment he was at peace. The thoughts of Cianan still being alive raddled his brain. He knew Cianan wasn't dead if anything Cianan would find him again and cause more problems for him in the future.
He began to walk again holding his grunts of pain underneath his breath. He figured throughout all the bad times he has had this was by far the worst, but he knew he'd won in the end Adara was safe we'll at least he hoped she was safe.
Slayn had came up upon some giant footprints in the mud form the looks of the prints it appeared to be a rancor. He quickly checked how many rounds he had left in his rifle not many. If the Rancor found him it would be over for him. Now that he thought about it the smell of his blood must be in the air which meant the rancor would probably come looking for him and if it did he was in no condition to fight it.
((Well he was lucky mostly the whole time until now.))

Tishr continued following the trail, he was almost certain it was Slayn's. He continued to follow them until they crossed the the tracks of some large creature, while he couldn't identify them he suspected that they belonged to his large mystory predator. "I need to find Slayn quickly either one of us will be in major trouble if this thing stumbles on us alone." He thought starting to jog along Slayn's trail.

Slayn grew very tired of walking the loss of blood was taking a toll on his body. His cells were at the mercy of his wound if he didn't get some kolto soon he was going to die from his injuries. He stopped and sat down on the ground eventually just laying there looking at the sky. Was this the end? was he going to die without ever getting to leave the planet? All questions would be answer in the matter of hours to come.
He felt the ground vibrate a little it seems like the rancor found his position and was going to come at him. Slayn held his rifle tight and aimed it around trying to get a fix on the creature's location. Slayn could hear the large steps of the beast as it grew louder and the vibrations grew stronger. This was it the deciding moment in his life would he be eaten and long forgotten or will he make it out alive.

Tishr finally spotted Slayn as the should of booming foot falls started flushing small jungle fauna out of their hidey holes. Tishr ran up behind his injured comrade sliding to a stop next to him, dropping his rifle between them and pulling his small medical pack from his belt, glancing up several times in the process. "Slayn take my rifle while I do this, Hopefully that thing is as slow as I hope." said Tishr before quickly wrapping a bandage around Slayn's thigh to slow the bleeding as he prepared the rest of his kit.

As he lay there waiting for the beast to come and find him it came to his surprise when Tishr came and handed him his rifle, as he began to patch his leg up trying to stop the bleeding. Slayn grabbed Tishr's rifle and looked through the scope a very cool weapon indeed but will it be enough to stop the beast. The scream of the beast was very loud almost loud enough to blow someones ear out. "Tish get outta here!" He began shooting rounds at the rancor monster and from the way it looked it didn't slow down.

"Aim at soft parts" he told Slayn dropping an extra clip in his lap before wrapping a last layer of bandages around his leg and grappling his armor harness and dragging him into a narrow, but long rock overhang. near the end he stopped laying slayn down again. Tishr removed his belt and harness handing it to slayn along with all his weapons and ammo. "Slayn keep shooting It shouldn't be able to reach you back here I'll be back as fast as I can maybe if we're lucky it'll chase me." He said before sprinting out of the shelter heading towards his ship, before he left he threw a explosive charge at the beasts feet.

Slayn emptied the clip while being dragged to a narrow with a large rock that had lots of green marsh all over it hung over creating a sort of shelter. Tishr had dumped his harness and all of his weapons on his lap. Slayn looked at Tishr for a second then said "What are you going to do?" but before he could recieve an answer he had left.
Again he reloaded the chamber and once again began firing, but this time at the beasts soft points. Hitting a few round in the creatures stomach area, it slowed down considerably. With the explosive charge exploding in between it's feet hitting the wounds slowing it down even more. The rancor began to chase after Tishr at a much slower speed then when Slayn had first fired at the beast.

Tishr could tell the creature was moving more sluggishly, but still speed up as he got closer to his fighter quickly running to it and opening the cargo bay. He was relived to see that Adara had made it to the fighter even it he wasn't happy having his own blaster carbine pointed between his eyes. He took the weapon from her trowing it in one of the bins lining the side of the cargo bay pulling her out and forcing here into one of the extra seats in his fighter clambering up into the fighter and lifting it off just before the beast came crashing though the trees and into the lake.
Tishr looped his fighter around pointing it's nose at the creature before letting loose with a torrent of laser cannon bolts and a pair of concussion missiles before striking out over the jungle searching for the remains of the ship and it's crater he had hid Slayn gliding over head before looping and landing in a small clearing nearby. As Tishr exited the ship he locked the canopy down and left the fighter's lights on to disprusade predators as he left to drag slayn back to the fighter.

Slayn lay there helpless cause he was unable to do anything all he could do was hope that Tishr came through. Sure enough a few minutes later he heard a large booming sound in the distance. He figured Tishr made it to his ship and fired a few rounds at the large beast. Now it was all over there journey appeared to have ended on a good note rather then a tragic one. He saved the girl and gained a new companion and managed to stay alive. What more could he ask for the plan went well even though there were only two of them.
Tishr landed his ship not to far from where Slayn was and he dragged him back to his ship. Inside Adara came over to him and hugged him holding him tightly.
"Thank you both I owe you guys my life." she said looking at Tishr then returning he eyes to Slayn.
"Tish thanks buddy." Slayn put his hand out to offer a hand shake.

Tishr reached down and took Slayn's hand before grabbing the front of his harness and slowly flopping him into the navigators seat. "You don't owe me anything Slayn, we need to get back to Iziz we both need a real medical facility." he said gesturing to his bandaged shoulder as he told Adara to take the gunners seat just in front of slayn's and climbing into the pilots seat and heading towards Iziz.

Slayn was grateful for finding a guy life Tishr to help him out of the situation. He had a good feeling that they were going to be buddies for a long time. He sat in the navigators seat clutching his leg then laughing at what Tishr said. Slayn watched as they past many mountains on their way back to Iziz. "So Tish what made you want to come with me?"

Tishr thought about this as he slowly flew his fighter towards Onderon not wanting to jar Slayn or his self before finally replying to slayn's invitation. "I'm not on any assignment right now. I just came back to visit my mother I always do it on the anniversary fo..., well, like I said I'm not doing anything so I can't think of any reason to say no. Is there anything in particular you had in mind?"

Slayn sat back in his seat taking Tishr's offer into consideration before making his statement. "Tish once we get back to Iziz me and you have to talk about future plans, I'm pretty sure you'll have some interest on a bounty I've been working on for years. If lets say 500,000 credits gives your ears a ring?"

"Money isn't what drives me Slayn, it never has. We'll talk about it after we get patched up." Said Tishr as he maneuvered his fighter in between the ships landing at Iziz to his landing bay.

Slayn gave off a smile underneath his helmet. 'Finally another person like me who's not in it for the credits' he thought to himself. "I can see that just by the way you helped me out back there. I too am not in it for the money, just hoping to bring a man to justice, divine justice that is. People as sick as this guy I'm tracking down don't deserve life." he ended on that note as they landed.

Tishr stared out trough the Holo H.U.D of his fighter while saying "Who's placed the bounty, I will not accept a bounty from a criminal, even for a worse criminal." Slowly unstrapping himself while contacting the Iziz medical offices connected to the space port while waiting on slayn.

Slayn looked at Tishr for a moment before saying. "Lets just say I posted the bounty, this man deserves to die." You could feel the anger in his voice. "It dates back a long time Tish I'm sure you wouldn't understand." Slayn was a bit impatient he opened the cargo bay doors left his seat, and exited down the ramp. He collapsed on and fell unconscious due to the lack of blood.
