She had no clue what they'd find here... Nobody did.
Well, they had an objective. But, only Necahual could remember the name of it. He'd been here before, and he vaguely remembered where it was. So now they were searching above the surface of the planet, skimming the trees and the oceans. It was supposedly a temple on the eastern hemosphere of the planet, and they had a rough idea where it was. But that was it. So it was up to luck... And there was Necahual's old mission objectives, but he didn't seem to be finding anything fast.
So they flew past yet another island, avoiding most of the civilization. They were in the older areas of the planet. The Rakata species hailed from this planet, though it didn't seem it was in heavy use by them. The planet was actually known as Lehon, most of the time. Then, a squawk came from the back of the cabin. "Got it!" She sighed, turning.
---------------------------
After they'd found it, she was put down on the beach. Necahual was with her, though, so she wasn't alone. The others were going to the nearest civilization to get some neccesary repairs, and to see if there was anything to do.
Meanwhile, they began walking forwards, towards the obvious temple. The island wasn't too big, by Sankichi's standards. But that didn't neccesarily mean much. They'd never had much in the way of islands on Endor. Her companion had mentioned that there had been a rampart here in the Jedi War, so something might still be here. But hopefully nothing too much, right?
She stopped, with his hand in front of her. If he hadn't forcefully pushed her back, she'd have walked into a clearing surveyed by the ever-typical dormant defense droids. So they'd have some work to do. But how they would do it, was the problem.

Vance had came to Rakata for needed fuel and other odds and ends he was still on his search for jobs. Vance walks to the bay door of his ship being stopped by Lar "I dont like this let me come with you. You know how much I hate just siting here all day while you go out and find pointless fights with out me" he says his loud monotone voice filling the small bay. "I know Lar but you are much more help here keeping Bill and Ted in line also I need you do defend the ship man dont want any one seeing the Stalker out from under our feet now do we" he says pating him on the shoulder and walking past a smile on his face as his helmet closes around his face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vance looks at the defence droids with a cocked eye brow "This lead had better be soild as hell I do not want to go through all this shit for nothing" he says under his breath as his helmet does a scan of the area. He cocks his other eye brow behind his mask as he finds other humanoids in the area "Now what are they doing here" he thinks out loud.

She looked up towards the defences, seeing where they were positioned on the temple and grounds. Necahual sighed, making sure he had rounds in his Slugthrower Rifle. "Got any ideas as for getting through this, Captain?" He said, somewhat disdainfully. "Your idea, remember? Anyways, I guess the droids could go... Depends, I suppose." She arrogantly strode out into the clearing. "Please don't shoot at me!" she called to the crowd. Her hand was on her lightsaber, nonetheless. She looked around again, this time, she saw Vance.
She nodded to him, waving the hand that didn't hold a weapon. "I hope you don't mind, but I was wondering if we could generally loot and plunder through this temple? If not, is there anything some self-respecting space pirates could do around here?" Her manner was fairly careless, though there wasn't any non-lethal cure for it. Hopefully, everything would go smoothly...

Vance cocks a eye brow at the ewok what had just simply walked out into the open. "Not very smart little guy" he says expecting a hail of blaster fire but nothing happend. "Well well well" he says under his breath as it not only not get shot at but also spots him in the thick tree line. Vance vanishes from the tree line and slowly works his way tword the group of life forms. He stealthily climbs a tree over looking the group "What do you want with me" he said his center green eye glowing in the shadows of the tree.

She blinked, as the person she'd seen in the trees vanished... It was unusual, for her. All this technology allowed advantages over her, given she was from Endor. Yet, it allowed her to hide places, and to easily spot things that were out of place. She smiled, as a way of greeting him. It seemed to be a him, from the vocals, at least. Then again, there was a lot of metal and amrour... She couldn't quite tell, but she went with guesswork most of the time, anyways. The Galaxy was sometimes just a bit too big for things.
"Actually, I was wondering if we could get through to the temple. Or maybe we could help you? Or perhaps, you could even help us?" she said to the man-clank. Thinking about it, that seemed to be an accurate description, to her primal instincts... Clank. "I'm Sankichi, anyways. What's your name, clank?" Necahual sighed from behind the trees. He knew he'd probably been spotted, but that wasn't what was on his mind. He was more worried about the girl offending someone important. She'd need to learn some social skills, sometime soon.

Vance raises his eye brows when he gets a much better look at this women she was very beautiful. Vance chuckles as she called him clank. He holds onto the branch he was crouched on and allowed himself to slide up side upside down he hangs there for a moment his armor making a soft whining noise as it keeps the blood flowing to all his organs and brain. "Clank huh" he says with a smile as he lets go landing on his right hand. Giving a little kick of his legs he spins around and coming back up on his feet. "Well Sankichi you can call me Stubbs or you can keep calling me Clank if you want" he says with a small smile behind his mask. The iris in his eye shuts and opens again clearing away some water build up.

The cyborg before her laughed, which made her guess she'd got a good reaction. Of course, she wouldn't really know what a cyborg was, if she heard the term. "Well Clank, that's great! But really, is there anything I can do here? You seem to be doing something in the temple, I suppose." She tilted her head, without thinking. She tried to look over his armour in a way she could take a guess at what he looked like without it on.
But, she'd have to do that later. She couldn't figure it out, was the truth. But her excuse was that she had business to attend to. Necahual pulled himself up out of the cover he'd been lying in, making himself known before they had to go somewhere. He simply stood behind Sankichi, nodding, avoiding too much contact.

"I was hired to find out what was in that temple and to find out why it was so heavily guarded" he says looking up at the temple. "Hell the guy is paying me a good amount of cash your welcome to give me a hand if you want I was thinking about callin in my guys but hell if you want to help I will take it" he says with a smirk behind his helmet. "And speaking of witch why are you people out here" he says cocking a eye brow behind his mask.

She nodded, seeing that he was here by money. "I would love to help. How's the guard on the temple now?" She looked over to his forces... It seemed to be a favourable situation. "But anyways, we're here to see what there is in the temple, and we were considering taking something, honestly. What's the harm in a little questing, hm?" She smiled, continuing to tilt her head, but more of a sweet intention to her words, now. Clank, as it seemed she was going to call him, wasn't a bad guy, as far as she could tell. And what harm did it do to have an ally along the way, in the Galaxy?
She glanced back at Necahual quickly, who was content looking at the droids, so she turned back. Now what? she thought.

"Good because I didnt want to have to take this place out alone" he says looking down at his hands as he balls them into fists. Electricity arcs across his hands and legs as he runs the test phase the lighting makes soft cracks and snaps. He opens and closes his hands and snaps his arms forword as his Foreblades snap forword with a soft wine and loud snap. He slides the blades across each other making small sparks. He snaps his blades back and forth a few times. "Well to awnser your question there are a bunch of B1 battle droids and a couple B2's but other then that thats all I know" he says looking up taking a few calming deep breaths.

Sankichi smiled again, glad everything had worked. Necahual on the other hand, rolled his eyes. Secretly, the Kaleesh hoped the new friend they seemed to have made didn't take off any of his armour. He knew that war wounds were ugly, that wasn't his worry. If he was cute, there might be an issue with Sankichi. After all, he knew she had a penchant for physical contact. Thing was, many people would take that the wrong way, and he didn't want any hindering men on their trail throughout the galaxy.
"Well, if you take us there, I'm sure I can do some fighting for you. It doesn't take much to cause droids to explode, you know. Also, Necahual here has some experience with the temple... Shall we?" She flicked a few strands of hair out of her face, letting them fall backwards again. Her blue and brown hair rested behind her head, jutting out in an odd way. And to work, we go.

Vance rolls his head stretching out the few neck muscles he had left. "Ya but it also dosnt take much to make then tough as hell ether" he says being reminded of his own droids. "Well best of luck to you I would hate to see some one as beautiful as you die today" he says with a laugh and jumps out into the trees swinging and running through the trees with calculated speed and skill that only a computer could handle. He quickly falls into a flanking postion and hunkers down. He punches in a few buttons on the underside of his right arm and looks up. "Lar, Bill, Ted how are the supply's coming" Lar looks up from the work of putting in the supply's. "We are nearly finished why?" he says returning to his work and kicks Bill from siting down on the job forcing him back to work. "Because I am going to need some heavy weapons on my position" Vance says taking a rough count of the droids. "Can you hold out till we finish the loading. GET BACK TO WORK" he bellows punching Bill's head spining it completely around. "Ya I will be fine got some help out here too. Im out" He says ending the transmission knowing Lar would be pissed.

She sprinted after him, as he leapt through the trees. She couldn't quite pull off what he was doing, but she could definitely maneuver a forest without a computer mechanism to guide her. A few tens of seconds later, she stopped, in a similar position to him. Necahual stopped a few feet in front of her, looking over the slope that would lead them to the temple. "I'm ready whenever you two are, a'right?" Necahual stated, in the gruff voice his race stereotypically possessed. Sankichi looked up to Clank, nodding to him. She jumped up, dashing on a diagonal slant towards the temple, down the hill. Force Speed was her ally in moving at the speed she did, but nonetheless, blaster fire was immenent.
She leapt up onto one of the layers of the ziggurat. That's what it was, on closer inspection. It was built part-way into the hill, covering up a part of it. She landed with her foot in a droid's head, knocking it off the body, after dodging a shot from the same droid. She ignited her lightsaber, slicing off the head of the droid's partner. She looked upwards, there were more droid patrols on each level. Also, she was still a fair way from the top of the stairs, which would lead to the entrace. And nothing but a simple blank went through her mind.
...
"Help?" she mouthed to the companions she'd left behind.

Vance's eye glows a bright green and bobs his head slightly his armor now playing music for him. He steps out of the tree line in beat with his music then suddenly bursting foreword with inhuman speed almost matching that of Sankichi. He charges right up to a B2 super trying to get a shot on the jedi. Vance uses all the momentum from his run and his own strength and punches the droid sending it flying and crashing into a few B1's behind it. Vance dives through the pile dropping a grenade in the pile. He lands and sweep kicks a second B2 makeing it fall he quickly gets on top of it and stabs it a few times with his Foreblades.

Just as she'd turned, she saw Clank emerge from the tree-line, before he bolted to a level below her. He'd eliminated the threat on the stairs just below, but now he'd be a target. As the pile of droids exploded, she looked up the temple walls. They were about half-way up the ziggurat. She darted towards the stairs, stopping a few steps above her partner. "Press on upwards, I suppose?!" she called to him, though facing the other way. More droids began to come down the stairs, and she rushed up towards them.
She cut two of the B1s in half, with a simple stab. With a normal lightsaber, that wouldn't have quite made sense. However, considering her extended lightsaber, and considering that a stab is a tear-drop like motion, it made much more logical and physical sense. With that, she kicked the other one, sending it flying into a B2 droid. With her knowledge of Combustion, she detonated the torso of the B1, causing half of the B2 to melt, disabling both droids. She glanced both ways, before simply running up some more of the stairs.
