David quickly killed the slow moving worms and looked around for a way to go after Enyo again, he turned and he saw a vent on the side of the hall way which he pulled open and sqeased through.
He found it lead away from the fallen roof and around it, from what he remembered from the hologram it lead to a court yard with a fountain in the middle, "It must be like the one on Dittotopia, that would explain why she was heading that way"
If you ain't first, you're last.
"Oh my goodness!" Joni Matriver exclaimed, pointing at the boy that had just gone through the ruins of the palace."Did you see that? How could any mortal, even a Force-powered mortal dispatch a rancor with such ease? Truly he must be an avatar of divinity!"
"I know, Joni!" Jayne exclaimed, his eyes wide in awe. "Even the almost-goddess Enyo flees in terror from his mighty visage!"
"Let's follow him! Truly he shall deliver us from the monsters and our life of drudgery in the palace working as servants!" Joni exclaimed, rushing after David. "Besides, he's kinda hot, so even if he isn't a deity, I can still worship his beauteous eyes!"
Jayne also rushed after David, catching up with his twin. Together they skipped arm-in-arm down the hallway and into the vent.
"Do we dare speak to him, Joni?" Jayne asked, feeling inferior."A deity might not like us speaking to him. He might smite us with mighty smitings. I'm too young and pretty to die!"
"Fear not, dear brother and fraternal twin! Truly his noble heart shall be touched by our devotion! Perhaps he shall allow us to found his religion and lead the galaxy in worship! I wonder what his policy on animal sacrifice is?"
"Oh, I hope he doesn't approve. I don't like blood very much."
"But Jayne! If he says we must bathe in the blood of the unclean animals, we must do so!"
"Of course! Truly you are very wise, dearest sister!"
((*dies laughing at Joni and Jayne*;)) ))
Emere shuddered and glared at a random rock that seemed offensive to him. "It's thick with dark side powers." He thought about what to do and then decided to do quite possibly the most idiotic thing he'd ever decided to do. "Let's go for the place where it's the thickest and strongest."
Feeling the need to defend his decision, Emere offered, "That's where the bad guys and the fighting will be."

Astri was about to speak again, but a bolt whizzed directly between Corvus's legs and towards her head. Things went all slo-mo, like they did in old rec dramas. To shield her eyes Astri held her hand up in front of her face.
The energy bolt bounced off.
It went back on a collision course with Empress Kassandra and hit her in the neck. "Oops." Astri said.
"Let the music cast its spell,
give the atmosphere a chance.
Simply follow where I lead;
let me teach you how to dance."
((Seriosly?? ))
David felt someone crawling through the vent behind him "Oh boy" he muttered and kept crawling. He bypassed several vent till he came upon a vent opening into the court yard.
He waited, while Enyo was talking to the others.
If you ain't first, you're last.
"That was hard work!" Joni exclaimed. "But it was worth it if it gets me closer to the object of my adoration!"
Jayne was a little less exuberant, mostly because he just thought David was a deity and lacked his twin's fangurlish motivations. He was still hopelessly devoted enough to fling himself on the ground before David and say," Oh, great Force deity, deliver us from the Great and Terrible Enyo!"
Joni prostrated herself too, but at an angle that let her ogle David's muscles.
"And where would you like your temple? We'd prefer not to have to build it here on Orran, but you get to pick the spot, Your Awesomeness! And what are your thoughts on animal sacrifice? I'm an animal lover, but I will gladly give up my treasured ideals if you enjoy the aroma of burning meat, blood, and hair/fur."

Kasandra yelped and the droid personality took over again. It was a much better shot and the next couple of blasts, aimed at Ordana, were much closer to the target.
"What the..." said David before he decided this was not the time to discuss this with the two weirdoes behind him "Shut up" he said before he pushed the vent with the force till it burst out into the court yard. He jumped out, grabbed the vent and smashed it back into place.
David found himself directly behind Enyo "Did you think you could get rid of me that easily?" he asked before looking over her shoulder "Oh hey, what’s new guys" he said sarcastically.
If you ain't first, you're last.
"You won't stop us that easily! We wish to bask in your glorious presence!" Joni yelled. She pulled a cutting torch out and cut through the smashed-up vent cover.
"What Joni said! You're awesomness personified! We wish only to follow your for the rest of our lives, as you deign to walk this mortal plane!" Jayne pushed his sister out of the way to get to David first.
"Hey! I'm the one who's biologically compatible with him!" Joni yelped indignantly.
Brutus motioned for the others to take up defensive positions around the Fountain. He flourished his lightsaber mockingly.
"So Enyo, finally decided to show up?"
"Are you responsible for this thing following me around?" Enyo asked, gesturing irritatedly at David.
"Nope. Thought he was dead. He's pretty annoying though, isn't he?" Brutus said with a smirk.
Aleena made a scoffing noise and rolled her eyes.
"Force users never die. They're like roaches. You step on them, they come right back when you turn your back.
"I object to that metaphor," Corvan said, miffed.
"So what?"
"What fun! It's like one of those Holonet sitcoms! Now skip the cutesy dialogue and get out of my way!"
"As much as it pains me to say something so trite, NEVER!" Brutus shouted.
David sighed as the two weirdoes got out of the vent, then He circled Enyo -hoping that their fear of her would still be enough to keep them from following him- till he found himself standing next to Brutus "As much as we strongly dislike each other, we are in this together... For now" he said as he ingited his own lightsaber "afterwards however I'm not so sure"
((Um... sorry? I geuss you just me a lesson...))
If you ain't first, you're last.
The ground started to crumble beneath Brutus' foot and he moved to the side just as a sarlacc pit opened up beneath David. The teen dropped into the pit, screaming his head off as the sarlacc's tentacles drew him down through its beak. There was a sound vaguely resembling a belch and then the ground closed back over the sarlacc, leaving no sign it or David was ever there.
"What was that?" Brutus yelped.
"That? Oh, that's my pet mutant tunneling sarlacc. I named it God-Mod. Cute little critter, huh? Useful for getting rid of those who won't submit to the Empire's edicts."
(( ))
Astri yelped and crawled between Corvus's legs out onto the floor. What could she do? There wasn't much. She wasn't even armed...but she was still small.
The gears in Astri's head began to turn and she flattened herself against one of the walls.
"Let the music cast its spell,
give the atmosphere a chance.
Simply follow where I lead;
let me teach you how to dance."
A hand stuck through the ground and a head of brown hair followed soon after, David's whole head was stuck out of the ground after that "Corvan, do you believe the cockroach theory now?" he said
“Now somebody give me a hand” Shono walked over to him and yanked on his hand pulling him out of the ground. A very sandy David turned on his lightsaber and said “You’ll have to find a new sarlacc, the one you fed me to is dead"
((I know totaly un real... But its the only way I could have David survive your lesson... those two name's are so alike...))
If you ain't first, you're last.
Solarflare watched the goings-on, and shook his head in wonder.
"Looks like he's got more lives than a Quintesson has faces. I have a feeling we'll be dealing with this guy's ilk for a long time," he mused. He hung back from the rest of the group, waiting to see if his assistance would be needed in dealing with Darth Enyo.
((Um, NN, Corvus isn't even there. I think you mean Aleena.))
Corvus, who was on the turbolift fighting Kasandra in the Star Forge and NOT on the ground near the Orran fountain, growled as Kasandra's droid form took over and started firing rather accurately.
"We need, like, electricity or something to short circuit her. Heyyy, do you know how to use that Force lightning stuff? I've heard that proves rather effective with machinery."
P.S."Brooklyn!"
Sholi, who was busy fending off fiendish monsters with shoto and small Force shoves throughout his author's lengthy period of RP laziness, watched as first Enyo, then David and his worshippers, then God-Mod, then David again, appeared on the scene. He felt that the whole thing was supposed to be allegorical or something, but not seeing the point, was meerly annoyed by the presence of the much-dreaded fangurl, and thankful that she hadn't done anything fangurlish when David had apparently died.

But I am a cat, and no cat anywhere ever gave anyone a straight answer
"I could try." Astri piped up. She wasn't sure that she could do anything much, but she was feeling rather useless at the moment. Suddenly her eyes caught sight of a swinging power cable. Somehow it had gotten unhooked.
She poked Corvus and then pointed to it.
"Let the music cast its spell,
give the atmosphere a chance.
Simply follow where I lead;
let me teach you how to dance."
