*From inside the crevace, Dika skillfully brought the shuttle out of the fissure and dropped low into the canyon soaring very close to the ground, relying on the force to guide his movement.*
*In the back Caeden smiled at Jenna again and spoke.* "We should be clear of the planet within the hour, my father will be waiting at our Haven point. Most of the Jedi and Jensaarai are gathered there, sheltered safely within the confines of the Redoubt. I wanted to be the one to rescue you, felt like I was supposed to come. Strap in though, Jedi Dika is very crazy sometimes."

*The Ewok wove in and out of the sharp rocks that dotted the landscape of the canyon. Shortly thereafter he reached his exit point and drove the small shuttle upward, rapidly ascending towards space.*
*On the backside of the planet with little defense and no shields to pass through, Dika came out of the atmosphere and passed through where the shields would normally be. He could see only a pair of frigates standing in his way of freedom as he entered the space around the planet. Stroking his drives he continued to leave the planet as quickly as he could. He would be totally clear in about 4 minutes.*
*In the back Caeden was all smiles as he watched Jenna somewhat nervous with the antics of the Ewok pilot.*
"We'll be clear of here soon, and then we can begin the multi-jump for the haven."

"We're not gonna make it," said Jenna suddenly in a worried tone. She pointed at one of the frigates. "That's Col Thorne's Frigate. His crew had a tendency to detain first and interrogate later, he'll get us with a tractor and pull us in - I've seen his ship do it!"

"That may be, but he's doesn't know Dika's piloting skills, we'll get through. Thorne is cunning, but I think we can get away."
"Jump clearance in 2 minutes and counting" came the Ewok's rumble

*The freighter accelerated to top speed as the frigate deployed it's tractor beam to catch the fleeing Jedi. At the last second, Dika banked and fired off a volley of 4 concussion missiles which he detonated in proximity to the tractor beam. The shrapnel screen was caught within the confines of the beam, and Dika expertly guided the starship away before it could get a second lock on him. Programming in the coordinates for a multi-jump to haven the freighter entered hyperspace and at last they were free.*
*Turning to Jenna, Caeden smiled his most charming smile and spoke.* "My Ewok friend is amazing and we are free, so tell me a little bit about yourself."

Jenna stared at him.
"Do you usually rescue, then charm, ladies?" was her edgy comment. "I'm still not sure why I came with you. One thing's for certain, I've totally wrecked any career I had with the Imperial Medical Corps."

"Charming..hardly. All I do is smile. My aunt always told me to smile no matter what. It's a natural tension reliever, well..usually. Nah I am just trying to be friendly. It's really the only thing that works when dealing with people."
"Truthfully I am curious about you because the force called me here to come for you. Dad says the force leads me to places least expected. Well here's one of those places.
"
"My aunt also says working on the Chiss is all the rage. You could become an Ascendency Medic. Chiss have complex systems, well more complex than ours. Course you'll have to talk to Dad about that. But forgive me I am rambling again."
*he smiled and leaned back, Dika sitting in the front chuckling at his babbling.*
