The Rebel Faction

(Sorry for being so scarce with posting.)

IC: Five minutes passed before the creature abandoned his cave again, only to set his sights onto Donovin once it came out of hiding. Letting out a loud ominous bellow the beast hastily made its way for Donovin.

Clearly feeling threatened, Donovin ignited his lightsaber; his blue blade quickly humming to life just as the creature got close enough to physically touch him. Before the creature could get a solid swipe at him, Donovin brought his lightsaber forward to strike across the furry beast's abdomen.

Every action after the blow toward the beast seemed to move in slow motion as Donovin rushed out of the creature's grasp, watching it out of the corner of his eye as the beast slowly stumbled and plummeted down the mountainside. Donovin barely made it past the animal before it started to go down, escaping just a few inches away from being swallowed underneath the white furred individual.

Wasting no time at lagging behind, he quickly made his way back up the rest of the mountain in pursuit of Dolash.


The beastly creature had been nothing compared to the challenge that would await them at the other side of the mountain.

Donvin allowed only a minor moment of rest as the Azguard acknowledged him.

They were both tired, but Donovin knew that if they did not continue on and find a place of shelter, they would either become ill or die. The weather conditions could only be resisted for so long.

Lean on your will, Padawan.

Cole's thoughts rang sharply within the Azguard's mind, urging him to continue on despite his own better judgment that told him that they both needed to rest.

We're not that far, Dolash. Each step brings you closer to the otherside.

Though the teacher encouraged the student there was still a lingering of hesitation that which he failed to show the Azguard.

He could sense something just at the top of the mountain, some source, a power source of some kind. He would check on this perplexity when they reached the top. if they reached the top.

He longed to not have to find himself or Dolash burrowing within the snow to stay alive.

He thought to himself.

Why do I have a bad feeling about this place? ...

He had only a few more steps to reach Dolash's position but Cole hesitated from his spot, removing his binoculars from within one of his hidden pockets of his garments.

It had been a while since Donovin had used his binoculars, never really having the need to use them much up until coming to Fest. Many of the items Donovin carried with him were of high caliber; his position within Intelligence of The Tholatin Republic demanded that he have such objects; his binoculars were no exception.

Looking out of the specs of his binoculars Donovin could see a structure of sorts, various streams of light protruded off of the building, from every direction, streams of light that could only be seen through sensory activated material.

Stepping through the invisible rays of red light would only trigger more sensory, the kind that Donovin was not willing to test out.

"Don't move, Dolash," he said, lowering his binoculars. Strapping the binoculars to him, Donovin marked the rest of the distance to the Azguard; as he reached the Jedi he spoke, glad to no longer have to shout.

"There's a force field that surrounds this structure, we'll have to find some way to bypass it, any ideas?"

Just as Cole turned to Dolash to answer, the force field shut down. Slowly Donovin's gaze drew away from the padawan and back onto the facility as he stretched out with the force.

They were not alone.

"Do you sense anything, Dolash?"

"I do not know yet."

He lied.

With his green eyes still studying the building, he motioned to the blaster with his left hand.

"Put that away, should you need it, your reflexes within the force will kick in and you'll snatch the weapon accordingly. For now.. keep it away."

Suddenly Donovin nodded his head lightly toward the left side of the facility.

"Look there," he whispered.

"Do you see the shadow?"

A small form of a shadow revealed itself in the midst of rushing its way across the snow.

Nightfall was close to settling in, it would become much colder soon.
