Luke swallowed and tried his best to slow down his breathing again and closing his eye's, as she stepped away he dropped his hand and tilt his head back. After all this time he still couldn't handle the memories of what happened that night. He pressed his hand's into the kitchen counter top and just relaxed there for a moment, "I-I think that would be great," he mumbled, tail drooping to the floor now. There was a distant sadness and pain in his eye's as they lowered to the floor. "hmm I sing in bar's and pub's when I can, I can't do much else without getting angry. Customer service is extremely annoying, how stupid are people?" he shook his head with a doubtful look, "singing is better- but it doesn't always pay the bill's. Either way you know the Irish pub just down near the bay? I sing there on week night's, if you could come this weekend maybe?..." he trailed off, she could see his last show, before he had to pick up and move on again, the though made him upset all over again. The whole time he was trying to focus on her and he kept ruining it with his own problems. "Why don't you er, tell me something about yourself?" he asked, looking down at her, the bandage's on her arm's, how she had talked about wanting to die, her lack of eating. Anju was in pain, and she wasn't able to cry to anyone about it. His eye's softened and he crossed the kitchen to her, raising a hand up toward her face. Then it plopped down on top of her head, "I probably messed up your day pretty good huh? bet you were going to go into work and ride on the wave huh?" he asked, taking his warm hand away and slipping it into his jean pocket.

"Whoa, you are not suggesting I am going to be like that landlord are you?" he gave her a wry smile, "I'm not that sort of guy Anju, I am just a guy trying to make a friend. Believe it or not, I have none." he shrugged, "why not someone we can be ourselves around right?" the thought of a man asking for pleasure in exchange for a place to stay was revolting to him. Dragging a hand back through his hair he watched the food toss around in the pan. "I'm really just a nice guy with a short temper," he mumbled, taking a slow step back just in case she began to feel too uncomfortable around him. He did just go and pat her head after all his complaining about touching. "ahg, man I'm a screw up," he blew out his cheek's, crossing his corded arm's over his chest.

Luke watched Tuna with a quiet stare, his dark brow furrowed slightly as he listened to her talk. "You are safe, I don't do relationship's or perverseness. Scout's honor. Your work pal said your name back after you ditched me." he added with a lazy nod and scooped up the fork, an ear twitching as Tuna continued to meow for the steamy food. Skewering a few piece's onto his fork he lifted it, waving it back and forth for the cat to watch, before he chomped down and chewed up the generous forkful of stir fry. "He sure love's food," he mumbled, thinking about all the food's he would love to try one day. "So uh, you prefer being alone too? up in the sky... I kind of get that feeling. Aside from the flying part but it must be pretty great having all that freedom." he looked out the window, wondering whether there were other bird experiment's out there. "I bet we aren't the only one's who ran this far away." he said out loud, the light reflecting from his piercing's as he looked away from the window.

"Could be that someone got you out when you were put out for a surgery. Sound's like it anyway's," he put his fork in the sink and moved over to toss his take out container and bag into the trash. "We don't have to talk about it though." he ruffled his hair a bit, a focused frown tilting the corner's of his lip's down. He blinked, staring at the garbage can with a blank stare. [what a weird freaking day.] he heard Anju's question and snapped out of his daze, looking over at her, "oh, two hundred when I can really." he shrugged, "the landlord's pretty cool with it as long as I help him out in the apartment's up top." he smiled a bit for her, reaching down to scratch Tuna under the chin a little bit. "Thank's for the food, I appreciate it but I have to get going." he said, standing straight with a easy grace. He looked around for his sweater that he had lent to Anju. Socializing was not his strong suit, even being around another experiment. Not only that but he needed a job and fast, the music gig at the pub was not promising enough for another reliable paycheque. He rubbed his clean shaven jaw with a mutter under his breath about money.

(nah that's fine)
Luke held up a hand, shaking his head as he gathered himself at her front door, "That's okay, you stay in and relax, it hasn't been the easiest of day's I'm guessing. I will see you tomorrow okay?" his smile faded as he turned, the door clicked open as he turned the knob. "If anything come's up, you know where to find me," he said back over his shoulder with a slight tilt of his head. His belt chain hitting his leg as he walked out and shut the door behind him with a hush. It was getting dark out finally, the sun setting behind the tall building's of the city. He hurried down the stair's from the second floor, a long breath puffing from his lip's as he stepped out of the door into the cold street. It was time for him to find another way to pay the bill's, but what could he do with the way he was? As he asked himself that, the ache of his tail sorely reminded him of all of the thing's his kind had to do to fit in.
Tera crossed her arm's, staring through her slim glasses out at New York City as she licked her pearly white teeth. "Have you found the girl?" she asked, turning away from the huge 20th floor window to face a man sitting on the sofa in front of her desk.He smirked confidently and nod, "She's on the run right now, I do believe she is heading for the west coast as we speak."
"Good, I can't afford to let anymore slip through my hand's after all the money they costed." she sauntered over to her desk, grabbing a slim phone and opening the screen with a swipe. "Gather your thing's Ryan, we head for Seattle tonight. I will retrieve that little twerp- along with her friend's." she said low under her breath. As if on que Ryan got up and strolled out of the room quietly, leaving Tera to make the call to her assistant. "I want a jet ready to fly within the hour, I need to make a trip to Seattle. Cancel my meeting's and inform them that I have urgent business to attend to in one of our Washington Branches."

(It would be good for Elda to be Corvek's body guard, Tera is going to value people who can keep her 'property' alive and complacent however in the end Elda work's for Tera. Ryan is currently going to be Tera's guard.)
Branches reached out with slashing blow's, one after the other mauling her face and arm's. She threw up her elbows and charged on along the forest floor; leaving pine needle's to scatter in wake of her step's. The pounding of her blood was loud in her ear's, as well as the gaining footstep's from behind.
"We've got her, close in on ten and two!" one soldier barked the order into his radio comm's, and swiftly the trained group closed in. On the swift girl rushing through the pine-tree forest."Huh!" she grunted as a solid force slammed into her from the side, driving air from her burning lung's. She hit the ground, knocking her temple on a knot of root's growing out from the ground. Panting and shaking her head, she blinked in attempt to clear her eye's. Above stood a burly woman dressed in camo gear, with a bullet proof vest, a helmet and visor covering down to her nose. The army? what a waste of time. It was when the black gun barrel was pointed down at her head that she became more concerned. "H-hey... you wouldn't shoot me..." she gasped, scrabbling back until rough bark jabbed into her back. She was against a large tree, staring in panic as the other two soldier's closed in, huffing and puffing for air.
"Hutchson, don't even think about shooting a kid. You know the order's anyway's, bring her in- alive." the first man warned, stomping up toward the muscled woman."She would be alive, this just make's her an easy cargo." She chuckled, lifting the barrel again.
The teenage girl was quiet, her expression having gone blank with the reality that they could shoot her. React. Fight back and escape! the adrenaline kicked in her vein's and she burst into action. The back of her hand smashed into the gun, knocking it clear from the woman's grip, then she kicked out a leg and knocked the two back onto the ground in a tangle of limb's. By the time the third had fired his gun at her, she was already streaking off into the tree's. "Need to get out of here." she gasped, checking over as a bullet ricocheted off a tree with a shower of splinter's.Ryan checked his phone as he followed behind Tera, his face emotionless as he read the screen. "They are in pursuit, either she'll be caught or driven into the trap, either way you'll have her back."
"Perhaps dear but at what cost of my hard earned money? When those quack job's sold the soldier's to me, they assured complacency and obedience. Now here we are, chasing an eighteen year old girl across the country because I pay idiot's to sleep on the job!" she snapped, clenching a fist until her gel nail tip's dug into skin.

Across the Galaxies, a Force stir's as two side's fight to rise above the other.
The Jedi are shrouded in darkness, no longer is it plain to see right from wrong while the Force is becoming so unbalanced. Not even the Jedi council are above the coming storm, all they can do is maintain peace and balance- and prepare.
"Hope is not lost."
It is the Sith who seek to destroy the Old Republic and take over the Galaxies, their number's grow slowly but strong. One can not exist without the other, and eventually the cycle must begin anew.
"Fear not, the enemy."
Darth Malgus has claimed dominant power over the Sith Empire and returned to Korriban, now the dark way's have risen to choke out the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order.
In this Universe we follow the live's of many who are effected by the rising darkness, and eminent battles to come, from the smallest backwater world's to Coruscant. All must fight to survive and make a way for themselves in the world's, so it's here that all of their stories begin.
May the Force be with you...Jedi ~

Coruscant, a planet so alive with life and technology that it's seen from the space port's around it. The Capitol of the Republic was a place full of life to it's very core. Weather was monitored, the separation between high class and low class resulted in cities spanning beneath the surface of the entire planet. Scum thrived, the rich lived unburdened and in control of the system- that was at least- when the Senate did not get involved. It was a place full of possibility and danger, an open market for all kind's of work.
Taya sat in a far corner of the room, her hand around a drink that hadn't been touched. She watched people dance under the flashing club light's, her pale eye's watching pensively in search of something. Or someone. To the naked eye she looked like an ordinary citizen, dressed for the club in a black body suit with no back and opened slits down the leg's. She lift the cup, pretending to take a sip in order to fool those who might be more on guard. Down in these lower part's of Coruscant thing's were less restricted than her way of life. Exhaling, she attempted to look more relaxed, assuring herself that with patience this would pay off. Thing's had changed of recent, the Sith were making themselves known after returning to their homeworld. Battles of the gruesome sort broke out in even the furthest reaches of the Galaxy, and Jedi were hard pressed to track down lead's. Tonight she would not be allowed to fail if they were going to make headway. An informant had passed on new's about a deal for kyber crystal, between a notorious crime syndicate leader and some mysterious buyer. She was to observe and track the buyer in order to find out more.
Steam poured out from a large vent off to the side, creating a loud hiss that echoed in the alleyway. Lorcan strode out the other end amidst the cloud of steam, across the street, deep electronic music spilled out from an opened club door. It was subdued once the door slid shut, leaving the sound of traffic racing overhead to echo down into the street. Lorcan stepped out under the lamp light, his boot splashing in a puddle of something, he didn't care to guess what. The surly bounty hunter strode across the street casually, making a bypass of the club and going around the back of the block. His thick braid swung back and forth behind, smooth as his stride. Tonight was a good one, he double checked the holo-image stored in the bounty puck, the blue light of it reflecting in his glinting eye's. "I've got you this time." he growled under his breath and quickly tucked the puck into his belt pouch, snapping the magnet shut with a tap. Then the man pulled out a grappling gun, checking to make sure it would function properly. -
Alright, so if you enjoy any aspect of Star Wars, there could possibly be something here for you!
I wan't to start up a SW Thread, set in the time of The Old Republic. The main story for TOR is based from the multitude of comic's and epic game's that have been made for the franchise. And I like the idea of this setting because it give's writer's creative freedom to situate their character with mostly any back story that suit's them.If you feel like joining let me know! any question's I'd be happy to answer as well. Don't worry though I'm no guru, and all of this isn't suppose to be Star Wars Universe canon.
Some detail that might help to kick off idea's is that currently, the Sith have made themselves and their forces known by returning to their home planet Korriban with their armada. Darth Malgus is now in control of the Sith, and the Jedi fight alongside the Republic army to restore balance to the Galaxy.
Post some idea's below, you don't have to join, I'd love to just chat Star Wars as well!

No Star Wars lover's here anymore? I've been gone too long apparently haha. The popular writing topic's have changed so drastically!
Well if anything i'd love someone to chat with

still looking for some friends!
