The ship had smoke leaking from the ship. The crash was roughest the four had ever felt, knocking Kenobi out and Feral off of his feet.
"Is everyone alright?" Ahsoka asked rubbing her head
"I'm alright." Feral said standing up and looking around
"I'm fine." Maul said seeing Obi-wan.
"Kenobi?" Feral asked and Maul went over to the human carefully lifting him up. Obi-wan groaned as Maul lifted him.
"Kenobi, are you alright?" Maul asked and Obi-wan shrugged him off still cross with the red Zabrak.
"I'm fine Maul." Obi-wan said and looked around the ship inspecting it.
"What was that that pulled us here?" Ahsoka asked standing up from the pilot seat
"I'm not sure. If it was some kind of gravity pull it was similar to the one on Mortis. Than again it was the Father that led us there, but he was after Anakin." Obi-wan thought out loud
"Well what ever it was damaged something in the ship." Feral said looking at some flashing lights on the control panel.
"Feral's right, our shilo pins and power converters are damaged there's no way we'll leave with them in this condition." Ahsoka reported
"We will need to go out and look for new parts." Maul commented
"Maul and Kenobi should go out and look for the parts." Feral proposed
"Maul and I? Why?" Obi-wan asked
"Maul with his Sith training probably is the best tracker and I should stay here and see if anything else is wrong." Ahsoka explained to Obi-wan.
"I was just trained as a warrior and know nothing about ships." Feral added
"Maul has the money to buy parts and someone has to keep Maul under control and make sure he doesn't get into trouble." Ahsoka added and Obi-wan rolled his eyes calming down.
"Fine. We will need to work together to get off of this planet anyway." Obi-wan said and walked to the exit.
"We will try not to be too long. Hopefully we're back before sunset." Obi-wan added before him and Maul left the ship. The terrain of the planet was flat while being covered in trees.
"It looks like there's some kind of trail over there." Maul pointed out that some trees had cuts in them like someone had cut every tree they passed.
"Hopefully it leads us to some kind of village." Obi-wan said as he followed Maul down the path. The forest got denser and the cuts in the trees that they followed for hours had stopped.
"Well we're lost now." Obi-wan commented as he watched Maul look around through the forest as dense fog came in.
"We are not lost Kenobi." Maul commented and continued to walk. Obi-wan followed close to him and half amused and half annoyed watch as Maul blindly led them through the forest until they stopped when they heard something following them. Obi-wan and Maul ignited their lightsabers and looked around. A cloudy translucent bipedal being walked up to them.
"It looks like you two are lost. Would you like some help?" The being had a smile on it face as it spoke.
"We are not lost." Maul hissed at it's the fog grew denser.
"Well you will not be going anywhere with the fog like this." The being cackled as Maul and Obi-wan looked around at the growing fog.
"I know a place where you two can stay until the fog goes back down." The being added still smiling
"Maul would should follow it we have no clue where we're going through this fog and we have no clue how exactly to get back to the ship." Obi-wan looked at Maul the thick fog now up to their waists.
"I don't trust this creature and I do know where we're going." Maul said to Obi-wan. "There should be a village nearby."
"Oh there is a village but if you go any farther now the fog won't let you see an inch in front of your face." The being commented as the fog got worse. Maul looked around again and snarled.
"Fine we will follow it." Maul said to Obi-wan and the being cackled again.
"Great just follow closely now. Don't want either of you to get lost." The being said turning around and starting to walk. As the two followed the creature Maul had a feeling that something was wrong.
"I don't like this Kenobi. We shouldn't trust this thing." Maul calmly said keeping an eye on the being that keeps looking back at them.
"It has offered us help Maul, we would have never found our way through that fog if we can see where we're going." Obi-wan responded back
"It could be fooling us and be leading us straight to a trap." Maul added watching the being.
"Quickly now the fog is getting thicker." The being said keeping its smile as the fog got thicker after it spoke. Maul's calm expression stayed clear on his face as he and Obi-wan stayed close to the being until they reached a small hut.
"We will stay here until the fog calms." The being said standing by the huts entrance. Maul raised an eye brow at the being than followed Obi-wan inside with the being behind him.
"You both seemed troubled about something, what is it?" The being freely asked
"Our ship has crashed here and we left some friends there in look for a village that may possible have something to fix it." Obi-wan answered the being and Maul glared at the Jedi for freely handing out information.
"What parts do you need to fix your ship?" The ghost-like being asked curiously, its smile never fading.
"Shilo pins and some power converters." Obi-wan replied as if he was talking to an old friend.
"Ah, I know where to get those at. Once the fog lifts I'll show you where to get them." The being said and chuckled staring at its two guests.
"But, that is not the problem I sense with the two of you." The being said watching their calm expressions and it felt through the force Maul's annoyance and Obi-wan's confusion.
"What do you mean?" Obi-wan asked after he looked outside to see that the fog had completely surrounded them.
"The two of you have a deep connection to each other, where one can't be without the other. Where the two of you should understand each other, yet I sense hate, sadness, fear and confusion shared between the two of you." The being started to explain
"Old memories haunt both of you and both of you are unwilling to tell the other. Which creates a barrier, a block between the two of you which causes unbalance. When one sees no trouble, the other does. When one wants to rush, the other takes it slowly. You both misunderstand the other, when you should know the others moves and balance it out instead of causing more trouble for the other." The being continued and Maul growled noticing the fog coming into the hut.
"So what? You're here to tell us how to live? I'm sure we can handle that ourselves." Maul watched the creature and Obi-wan took interest in what the thing's answer would be.
"No, I'm telling you that you need to understand each other." The thing replied
"And how will you do that?" Maul asked.
"This fog, it will help you understand each other and the reasonings for everything that has happened and hopefully everything that will come to happen." The being said as the fog quickly gathered around the two force wielders and they both passed out in the fog.
