Thread: Light & Dark (Frost and Felicia Florence)

Who's coming? Maybe speaking aloud wasn't the best course of action around a child who picked up on situations after than most adults. Then again, Claudia's attentiveness could easily be attributed to her training. Master? Scrunching up her face, Malena sighed, she couldn't very well keep the child quite when there wasn't much to do about nothing. Assign her minimal tasks would always result in some sort of ultimate life lesson. Perhaps this too was one of those days. Who are those marshmallows? Wait, what? Marshmallow? Clearly there was some sort of miscommunication. Turning to look at the young Padawan who'd wandered outside of the grotto's edge. She spyed men dressed up in white armor surrounding the ancient temple like structure. Holy fuck in a hand basket, how the hell did she miss this? Then again, 15 minutes had passed where she had been laying on the ground saying nothing. Claudia had taken notice of this and kind of walked over to her in the time frame. Setting there and brushing the hair away from Malena's face, comforting her as only a child could before wandering back to her watercolors. So...that could have been part of why she hadn't really registered the presence of the enclosing threat. Rushing to her feet the Jedi Knight grabbed hold of the child Tucking her face into a comfortable position against her left shoulder before literally flying out of the cave and landing along the shore of the lakeside. Sprinting when her feet made contact with the earth below. We're going to have to run. And when I put you down, you don't stop until you reach he city. Run home Claudia. Yes, there was no doubt in her mind. These were Stormtroopers, belonging to none other than the infamous First Order. And they didn't take a trip here to pick posies and go on vacation at an luxury resort, she could tell anyone that much. Breathing heavily, the heart in her chest raced faster than it did the first time she ever layed eyes on the man in her visions...Though his face remained obscured by behind a mask...there was always this impending sense of doom. No real way of explaining it other than there are certain beings who carry this strange stagnant aura. Whoever this presence was like a cancer. Widdling away at whatever strength and connection held with the forces of light. Drawing the darkness so close to you that death seemed inevitable. Then again, this could have easily been a projection of her own feelings...Not exactly how he plagued those in her visions but how he presented himself. Nonetheless, she let go of Claudia who ran from the forest to a small land-cruiser, taking off like a rocket towards the city. Now, pacing slowing down in the jungle like forest..she caught her breath...Taking out her lightsaber the moment she heard the sound of footsteps approaching. Sir, we've found the girl she's-EEEEH! Striking down the stormtrooper before he could finish his sentence...she scaled the trees and animalistically swung from vine to vine playing cat and mouse with the stormtroopers until she landed on her feet like a cat when one of the branches gave under her weight. 'Unsheathing' her lightsaber from the hilt she blocked blaster bolt after bolt. At one point she deflected one back at the solider who'd attempted to shoot the lightsaber out of her hands. Before long she'd either disarmed, knocked out, or severally wounded the 15 of the men presumably sent to 'assassinate' her.
