Upon waking up, Lea Rahn knew two things for sure. Firstly, she had no idea how much time had passed. Secondly, she did not feel in the least bit rested. In fact, she could feel all sorts of aches. She had the distinct feeling of chills that comes with a fever, and her elbows and calves definitely ached a lot more than they had before. That was anything but comfortable. What was the Darth doing to her, and why?

She crawled to the end of the bunk, then gently jumped down, wincing slightly on landing, as the back of her calves stung, as if something wasn’t assembled right there. Kneeling down, she probed it with her hand, but could not feel anything wrong through her robes. In the dim light of shipboard night, it wasn’t easy to see. Most of the light in the prison came from below and had the distinct red tinge stemming from the crimson hue of the transparisteel floor.

While she could have thought more about her condition, she found herself unable to do so as a frantic-looking Jedi came wandering in. When he spoke of Xid being gone, Lea’s heart jumped. Who had taken him out? Who had the authority to do so? She hoped that would not lead to his death, for his injuries truly were severe. 

When the excited youth next spoke of escaping, Lea didn’t know what to think. How exactly were they planning to do that? She’d tried numerous ways the past couple of months to no success. She knew the security on this prison was less than optimal, but she also knew Darth Nyiss well enough to know that that was but a small part of her trap. A trap for the Jedi, a challenge for the Sith. 

She found herself dragged along without much of any chance to object. Not that she would have objected. Not waiting to see whether he knew how to open the doors, Lea called on the Force to open the doors from halfway across the room. At first they were slow to respond, but she wasn’t going to be stopped by an obnoxious door, so she put slightly more effort into it, fueling it with her burgeoning irritation. Moments later, the doors to the turbolift slammed open. 

Fortunately, the exit the Echani had dragged her to wasn’t in one of the bunk rooms, so the sound of the doors slamming open probably didn’t wake anyone. Or at least not everyone. There probably was an easier way to open the doors, but Lea did not see any reason to delay for such. The door mechanism was obnoxious. It deserved to be treated this way if it thought to stop her from finding Xid.

Lea jumped down the shaft, assuming that her companion knew how to use the Force to dampen any such landing. It wasn’t that far, after all. But when he did not follow, she pressed the up button on the turbolift, letting him get on before sending it back down. ‘maybe his master forgot to teach him force jump?’ she thought to herself, while trying to figure out why he had not jumped.

Once at the bottom, she turned to the echani. “There are two ways that we can do this search. Either we search each and every room till we find Xid or we get caught, or we find the surveillance room. There must be one. There we can find the recordings of who took him and where. Which would you prefer?”

She let him think for a few moments, then continued. “whatever you think is best, we can do. You can explain about this escape plan as we walk there.”
