Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zeelin had not slept at all. In fact, she had taken the tim to go out on the large landing and pratice her 'dance of blades'. And what a dance it was. To anyone watching it would have given off a mystic, dream like feeling. It was obvious how, with her fluid, yet jerky, slow and then fast movements, that the jedi had told her she reminded him of turbulent, wind blown water.

Her tonfa blades spunn in the air as she battled invisble foes. In one flip, she threw her tonfas into the ground and pulled out her two short, double sided blades and began spining and twriling them and her self. It was as if she cut the wind itself as the blades made a shirl, wailing sound like wind through trees.

She stopped after a long while, sweat dripping down her face as she sat down on the floor with a thump.

James laid dazed against the bar counter, slowly staggering to his feet, whilst making sense of what just happened.

Damn bucket of bolts. I'll get back at him soon.

He ran out to the exit, hopefully not attracting no one attention. He made his way out of the cantina, and used force cloak, so that is anyone had followed him, they would be lost now.

With a smile, Doc Bob laughed, " bumble bee? hmm......" for a few moments Doc seemed lost in thought, and he quickly took out his datapad and began punching keys at a furious pace, if she were to look over the screen, it would be flashing quickly, a blueprint shaping itself before her eyes, " a bumble bee beats it's wings fast yes? then maybe I can use that to...." perhaps instead of making the shield generator a simple, all encompassing sphere, I can have it focus into two, stronger circular fields, then slap an energy blast into oblivion....or, better yet, I could have that apply in such a way that the shield would snap back into an all encompassing egg after doing so, thus enabling it to be useful against both a multifront attack and a one on one attack.....oooo, someone's gonna get a nasty suprise from this one.....what else....a stinger? yes...if I am going to try playing around with focusing a shield, I may as well try and make a way for it to focus into a cone, so that what looks to be a suicide ramming, could turn into a deadly pummel....but why would I attack someone? hmmm....it would still be nice to be prepared, after all, if I'm going to name this ship the 'bumble bee' it may as well take after it's namesake. After spending a few minutes in quiet contemplation, and inputing the very basics of his ideas into the datapad, Doc Bob simply grinned at Natalia, " well then....once we get this thing a runnin' maybe I can make this ship truely worthy of the name 'bumble bee' ". And with that he stood, closing up the power coupling he had been peeking around in and taking up a few of his tools, making his way around the ship and opening panels leading to: the sensor array (a strange jumble of wires that makes one's head hurt if they try to follow where they all go), the shielding system (which looks more like a birds nest than a working piece of tech), the main computer core (filled with ten times as many burned out processors as working ones, but the hookins are still in good shape), and the propulsion system (which, even inactive, looks like a work of art.....modern art......you know, picasso modern art...).

((hehe, work of art..... rofl ))

"Understood" Haxus said as he followed Silver. " But master, I don't belive we should enter so bold. I mean there is probably some sort of defense, even against force users. To enter like so would get us killed" he said. " And I don't belive we should tell them were we come from either, if it comes to war, it would be better to be unknown."

As doc ducked inside the ship Natalia took a moment to think about what she had just seen. On what seemed like a complete whim Doc had gone and designed something that he would probably never use. The design was brilliant but she couldn't think of a reasonable scenario in which he might need it.
"It's like he just adds what ever he feels like..." She thought, confused and a little saddened as old memories tried to fight there way to the surface. Unconsciously her eyes sliding toward a particular part of the garages wall but her focus shifted back to the ship after a few moments.
Shaking herself mentally Natalia headed back into her tool lock up and started looking in the farthest set of cabinets. It had been a very long time since she had used anything from this area and had anyone else owned it probably would have been dusty and cluttered. After a few minutes of looking she found what she had been looking for, a computer core. It was a good four years old but half the sized of the newer models and pretty in a way. Unlike her work that showed an unconscious artistic touch this one looked like the creator had been trying to make it look nice intentionally. It had a sleek minimalist design with organic angles and artistically arranged wires and chips.
Natalia smiled and brought the core over to the piles of equipment and set it down. She'd have to talk to doc about installing it latter but she enjoyed the thought of getting to contribute something special to his impossible ship.

"You need anything in there?" Natalia asked as she walked up to the opening in the side of the ship. If he didn't she was going to climb in and continue working on the wiring she had started fixing. The space inside was a little cramped for her but even with him already inside there wouldn't be a problem. She'd just have to climb out first when he wanted to get out.

"Alright." Natalia said then put some new connection ports in her belt and the tools she'd need to replace the damaged ones. Despite the chaos of the wiring she knew she could have it sorted out in a couple hours of steady work. She'd apprenticed under a Zabarak who'd been sloppy almost to the point of negligence so unsnarling wiring wasn't an issue for her. Annoying since she always made a point of doing it neatly the first time, but not an actual problem to correct.
"Have to stay clear of the 'hyper drive' though." She reminded herself silently then climbed in and got to work. After the first ten minutes the familiar patterns of work soothed her nerves and she fell into 'the zone' as her mentor had put it. It was an almost trance like state in which time simply seemed to disappear for her and for some reason she also started humming as she worked. It was also one of the few times where her innate force sensitivity was released instead of being almost completely repressed.
