Coruscant-Jedi Temple Hangar

[Aeon Kensho™]

The Jedi Temple of Coruscant had several hangars throughout its structure to assist in the movements of its Jedi Knights, including one hangar in each of the four Council towers. Each was a fully stocked hangar bay for the maintenance and launching of the Order's spacecraft.

The compact space afforded by the Temple was designed for maximum efficiency, with starfighters and interceptors lining the inner circumference of the High Council Tower's hangar. To launch the fighters, a retractable landing pad slid into position from a hatch allowing it enough space to land and take off.

[Vax Kote™]

-The newly anoited Jedi Knight of the Republic; Vax Kote walked in silence through the jedi temple heading for the hanger. Recentally, Vax had been proclaimed as a Jedi Knight of the Republic and the Jedi Order. Already he had been assigned his first mission as a Jedi Knight. He was to gain a personal fighter and travel to Dathomir to resume work for an enclave that had been put under assignment of a Jedi Master; Master Hue Ran who had become MIA.-

-As a jedi knight Vax was in hopes of becoming a skilled weapons master in the jedi order. He had already mastered the form of Djem So/Shien and was on his way to learning Ataru and some of the Juyo techniques that he possibly used in his encounter with a dark jedi on Corellia.-

-But the past was of no importance to him. He had entire focus on his main objective and that was getting a fighter that could take him to the planet of Corellia. Seeing as a battle cruiser took longer he would not bother with waiting for a few months or days in having a capital ship being constructed. Taking a single fighter to Dathomir would be enough for him to assess the damage and find out if any dark presence was on the planet.-

-Through the hallways that Vax walked he made no sounds; there was the only sound of his breathing which was calm and centered. He alone was calm and centered with his gold and black lightsaber hilt clipped loosly onto his black jedi belt.-

-Approaching a pair of double doors Vax lifted his hand up waving it in front of himself. This allowed the doors to push open quietly and calmly. Once the doors where fully opened Vax continued his way into the hanger. The room seemed a little brighter when entering. At the end was a fairly large opening which allowed ships to enter and exit the hanger. All around the room where various types of starfighters including the Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor or Jedi Starfighter as many had called it and the Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptor which was often called a Jedi Interceptor. Both where different in size and shape but both where used by the jedi.-

-Continueing further down the walk way Vax saw a number of technicians and astromech droids being placed into the series of Jedi Starfighters and Jedi Interceptors. One of the fighters that Vax caught interest of was one of the Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor. Walking towards it he noticed the mechanics pulling an R4 astromech droid from the side. The droid looked to be destroyed and non-functional. The fighter itself had a few battle marks on it but it was none but a few moderate repairs could do to fix it up.-



-Taking a closer look at the jedi starfighter Vax examined it through looking at the controls. The color was a red and black color which looked to be adding a stealthy tone to it; or at least that was what he thought. Quietly one of the mechanics who walked by noticed Vax observing the fighter. He approached him stopping about five feet away from him.-

ooc-

mechanic- glow teal
vax- glow purple

ic:

[glow=teal,4,000]"Master Jedi I am sorry to say that this fighter is in no condition to lift off or for that matter make long distant travel."[/glow]
-Vax turned to the mechanic observing the uniformed man over. THe mechanic had a few black marks on himself from working on other droids and fighters that where used by the jedi. Vax cleared his throat.-

[glow=purple,4,000]"I don't see the problem with this Delta-7 mechanic; all it needs is a few fixings and it will work right."[/glow]
[glow=teal,4,000]"But it lacks an astromech droid. We are short hand on those droids because of some problems....without an astromech droid this ship will not lift into hyperspace."[/glow]
[glow=purple,4,000]"I can get by mechanic. You think you can get this fighter running in a few hours?"[/glow]
[glow=teal,4,000]"I am sure we can master jedi."[/glow]
[glow=purple,4,000]"Thank you."[/glow]
-Vax turned from the mechanic and walked off. He knew how the mechanic felt of fixing a fighter that was no longer suited for space flight. But no one knew that Vax was a pretty good pilot even if he did not have an astromech droid he would still be able to pilot a star craft around in space without it.-

[Vax Kote™]

ooc- same color code as before.

-Through the whole process from which the medical team had began repairs on the Delta-7 fighter Vax returned into his quarters that he had been assigned and meditated through the whole process. This allowed him to channel his energies and allow no memories of the past to enter through. He remained calm and centered in. Feeling that it was time Vax opened his eyes, stood up, and made his way out of his room back to the hanger base of the jedi temple.-

-Upon entering Vax approached the same mechanic that he spoke to before of the ship before he left to allow the team to begin fixing of the Delta-7 fighter. Approaching behind the mechanic Vax saw clearly of the ship and how much work the mechanical team put into it. In a few; around 3 to 4 hours the team had run through the fighter fixing it to where it was running again.-

[glow=purple,4,000]"It is finished?"[/glow]
-The leading mechanic turned facing Vax. He appeared to have been through a lot of work with his team in trying to fix the fighter up to date like most of the other fighters the jedi had used.-

[glow=teal,4,000]"The fighter is fixed but I must have to say that we don't have an astromech droid."[/glow]
[glow=purple,4,000]"You did all you could do to the ship. Until an astro droid comes in I will just have to deal without one for now."[/glow]
[glow=teal,4,000]"But master jedi no jedi has left without an astro droid at their side. I would sudjest taking one of the other ships until we can get one in."[/glow]
[glow=purple,4,000]"All is well; I've piloted ships without droids before I can sure enough handle a ship like this one that does not have one."[/glow]
-No matter how hard the mechanic had tried to get Vax to use one of the other Delta-7 ships Vax pressed forward with the same ship. Turning to the Delta-7; Vax approached the ship looking it over for last minute checks.-

[glow=purple,4,000]"I am sure it's ready for take off."[/glow]
-The lead mechanic frowned to Vax nodding slowly to him. In that moment in time Vax turned his focus back over to the ship and climbed aboard into the pilot seat. Looking over the controls of jedi fighter; Vax never really had the chance into flying one. THe only ships he had remembered flying was V-19 Torrent Starfighters and TIE Defenders which he had been trained to fly. He never really got the whole point into flying a jedi fighter. Though during his time during the clone wars he never was a jedi.-

-Focusing in on the controllers Vax clicked through the buttons and knobs which closed the cock-pit up. Hitting another button the engines roared to life. Grabbing a hold of the controllers and pulled it back. The fighter slowly lifted off the ground turning to the hanger opening. Once the mouth was in full view Vax pushed the throttle forward. The Delta-7 fighter flew slowly out of the hanger into the Coruscant skies. He manuevered the fighter through the traffic of the city-planet.-

[glow=purple,4,000]"First time handling this kind of ship but I can handle it."[/glow]
-Out in space the traffic seemed to be a little more of the same as it was on the planet. Freighters and smuggling ships left the planet with cargo. Most of the ships that left had hyperdrive systems already on-board. But that save the same for Vax's ship. Moving his fighter forward more he aimed it over to a Syluire-31 hyperspace docking ring which acted as a hyperdrive system for most ships including V-19 torrents and Delta-7 fighters.-



-Moving it in closer to the docking ring Vax went through a series of buttons and knobs of his fighter. Coming in closer he pulled a small lever which allowed his fighter to latch onto the docking ring. The hyperdrive engines on each side lite up blue waiting to enter hyperspace.-

[glow=purple,4,000]"I am going to remind myself to find an astro droid so when I do this next time it wont take to long."[/glow]
-Looking down at his controls a small screen illuminated showing different colors. Using it he set up the course for the planet Dathomir; his target planet.-

[glow=purple,4,000]"Plotting a course for Dathomir. Preparing for hyperspace."[/glow]
-Entering the coordinates in he moved his hand over to the activation switch.-

[glow=purple,4,000]"Entering hyperspace.....now!"[/glow]
-Pushing it forward a small ridge opened up. The Delta-7 slowed down then sped through entering hyperspace towards the planet of Dathomir.-
