A small grey T7 model astromech continuously taps it's small mechanical arm on Rhayne's hatch door until he awoke from the noise. Rhayne's eyes were hazy and there were signs of bags beneath his eyes as if he didn't get enough sleep the night before. The astromech chirps a few low beeps and one high pitched beep. The boy slides the covers off of his body and lands his feet onto the cold metal floor. He stares at his feet for a few seconds before responding "let me get ready first then I'll eat." The astromech chirps happily and strolls off to another hatch door in the hallway, Fee Long's room. The astromech chirps the same set of beeps while tapping the door with his small metal arm. The hatch door opens and Fee stood at the entrance to the door. His hair was in a bun while he wore shaggy pants, stitches around his chest and arms, but no shirt. He didn't look at the astromech for he couldn't see its force alignment, but responded "I'll be there soon." The astromech chirps a positive response and strolls away for the man, leaving the hallway.
Fee Long looks over to Rhayne's hatch door for only a moment before heading back into his room. The hatch door closes behind him and he takes a seat on the edge of his bed. He grabs his mechanical companion's, GR8, head and a flat tipped screwdriver. He turns the head around and screws in a loosened chip. Suddenly lights flickered from the droid's eyes. "M...Azt...ear?" GR8 mutters in a slow deep to a rising high pitched voice as it's circuitry wasn't fully fixed. Fee smiles as he turns his droid's head around and says "hello again GR8. Welcome back to the galaxy." The droid's right eye flickers as it responds "m-Aster... It's good to see your face again." Fee lays his forehead against his companion and sighs. "Master, is there something wrong?" The droid asks. Fee chuckles with a frown and says "yeah, I lost a lot of friends and those that felt like family... Also I've been asked to have breakfast with their murderer." The room became silent for a couple of minutes. "Master, I suggest you eat now or your body won't be strong enough to protect anyone else in the future." The droid says, breaking the silence with a neutral but positive response. Fee nods and places his companion on his bed. He walks over to a closet and finds a few dark shaded robes of many colors. He sighs and grabs a robe which was shaded with purple. Once Fee had finished putting the robe on, and putting his hair into a cleaner bun, GR8 says positively "you look wonderful master." Fee smiles and notices a satchel in the closet, so he grabs it and wraps it around his left shoulder to his right waist. He walks over to his companion and places him in the front pocket. Fee exits his room and walks down the hallway towards the dining room. Fee enters the dining room after a few mistakes of entering other rooms.
Inside of the dining room, there was a large metal table with a table cloth which represented an empire before their era. There were nine chairs that seemed to have been designed for royalties from different planets. The ninth chair stood at the end of the table, and was taken by the fiery woman. She wore a gown of black which held shimmering lava like features of flowers twirling around her body. There was a large burning flower on her dress which was the main focus of her dress. The woman's apprentice sat next to her, she wore black robes with her hair placed into a bun. There was a spike holding her bun together. In a seat farther away from the two held Rhayne wearing a robe similar to Fee's style but was shaded with sage. Rhayne had his hair down, it seemed like spider webs tangled together. One of the service droids pulls back a seat across from Rhayne for Fee. Fee takes the droid's offer and sits in the seat. Rhayne looks up towards Fee and becomes distracted by GR8's head in the satchel. The mistress smiles and says "now is a good time as ever to have breakfast." A large hatch door behind her opens and a group of service droids enter with multiple plates of foods. A droid stops next to the young woman with a plate of sliced fruits and a cup of honey tea. Another droid serves the mistress with a bowl of wamprat stew. Two other droids place plates of bread, soups, fruits, vegetables, and cups of water. The mistress snaps her fingers and the droid's walk away from the dining room. She smiles and says "begin eating boys, you'll need you're strength for the training I have planned for you." The boys did as she said and began eating while the young female apprentice finishes her slices of fruits. Slowly, everyone had finished their meals except for Fee as he was eating his fruits. "Since your friend is still eating, Phyllis will be the one to train him for today while I train you." The mistress says as she scoots her chair back a bit and stands up. The apprentice sighs as she responded "alright mistress, I'll do as you wish." The mistress smiles as Rhayne stands up, and the both of them leave Phyllis and Fee in the dining room.
