Her lips pouted as she reflected upon the 'usuall place'. Josu hadn't been there for, well, since the whole incident a year ago. "I havn't been there in forever. I wonder if Jaquell is still there." Jaquell had been a waitress at the time Jaden, Drake, and Josu had been a team. Delicate fingers brushed against Josu's face, pushing a stray lock of red-brown hair back into place.

Jaden licked his lips at the thought of the roaring feast's he'd ordered from the place. He looked at her and then thought about something important and he'd have better acted quick on it less they'd possible never make it to the place. "I hope you're ok with riding with me on my bike still." Knowing Josu's truck, it would sputter at die out on them on the way there. Damn thing had a sense of humor.

Josu was dragged out of her thoughts as she blinked at Jaden. "You still have that thing?"

Jaden smirked, "Rode it on my way in and it still runs like a dream." Jaden pulled out his key and dangled it playfully. "Rides usually cost 20 credits but Masters and good friends ride free." He through the keys up and snatched them out of the air as they fell in front of his face.

Josu rolled her eyes and began to head indoors, "Hasn't Master Drasoft told you not to charge for something that should be given out of the goodness of your heart?" She turned fully away, all the while calling over her shoulder, "Coming?"

Jaden scoffed at her dis. He followed her through the corridors till they came to the hanger in where he led her to his bike. He pulled out a visor from the bikes side pouch along a pair of safety goggles. He handed the goggles to Josu and smiled, "Nervous? I'd wager you haven't been on one of these in a while." He straddled the bike and donned his visor, which folded out around his head to form a thin yet sturdy helmet around his head.

"You won't let me fall." Josu was a little taken aback as she said that with such certainty. She knew her words were true, but to what extent... The new Master climbed awkwardly on behind her Padawan and firmly wrapped her arms around his waist. Yes, she was nervous, but she would never say that out loud, and to somebody she had thought no longer existed?! It was weird enough to be holding on to him right at this moment and feeling his body against hers. It was enough to make her blush again. "Ready."

"Good..." Jaden hit the ignition and his bike came to life echoing its distinct hum. "And no, I won't let you fall..." Jaden smiled in his helmet and pushed hard on the accelerator rocketing through the hanger, launching out with some of the tech droids cursing at him. He felt Josu's weight pulling back on him, he was used to it though. The bike roared as it accelerated through the air of Coresant. The sun was setting as the day moved to night. He moved into the traffic lanes, speeding still however. He thought better than to fly freestyle and possible tic her off, he didn't know the extent of how open she was to him.

Josu relished in the feel of the rushing wind and adrenaline. She pulled herself closer to Jaden, hugging him closer and laughing.

Back in the Jedi Temple, Master Drasoft led Michael into the Library, "And here is our Library. There are many documents here that will help you in your training" Malin noticed Tallia in the corner and grinned to herself, while adding to the tour speech she had been giving, "And it seems one of our peers is putting it to good use."

Michael looked over at Tallia, she was focused into something. Guess she wasn't always an excited little girl as Jaden had mentioned earlier. She was kind of attractive when she was serious. He decided to leave her to her studying and turned to Master Malin, "I'll be sure to follow example." He smiled excitedly, "Master, Do you know if the library contains any info on Jedi tech?"

An elderly human Jedi shuffled twards Michael, the limp in her left leg was apparent but she still carried herself proudly. Her graying blond hair was pinned back into a neat bun and the smile that held itself across her experienced features invited warmth to her onlookers. Malin embraced the grandmotherly old woman and waved her hand to Michael, "Madame Rosat, this is my new Padawan, Michael Papho. Michael," She gestured to Madame Rosat, "This is Madame Gracleya Rosat. She is the Librarian and can show you to information about Jedi technology." Madame Rosat bowed to the young man and turned, "Fallow me."

Michael followed Madam Rosat side by side. "Thank you Madame Rosat." He spoke with a warm smile. "I was hoping to find info mainly on lightsaber and prosthetic limb tech." He rubbed his wrist and felt the metal beneath his fake skin. "A little project I was thinking about."

Jaden speedy drive slowed as he came up to the "usual place", aka Hungry Jawa. The name was rather unusual, but the food was top notch. His bike came to a hover and then to a stop in a parking spot. He pressed the button on his visor and his helmet folded back into it, then he placed the visor in his bike. He sat up and looked over at Josu, "Well, Master, we have arrived to our destination." He dismounted and faced her. "You seemed to enjoy the ride."

As the goggles slipped off of her face by steady hands, the giggling continued, but in a more steady and sane manner. "I havn't ridden passenger in a while. I almost forgot what it feels like to not focus on the rout being traveled." She swung a leg over and, now sitting side-saddle, faced her padawan. Her eyes sparkled with glee and a playfull... something was apparent deep in the twin emeralds. With a sudden unexpected movement, the new Master was on her feet and walking toward the entrance of their favorite hole-in-the-wall. "Come, I've been having a craving for that soup of theirs!" The one thought that had kept her away for all this time was currently out of her mind, the fear of being asked about Drake was wipped clean out of her system.
~~
Madame Rosat led Michael down past a few aisles, "Oh, I could tell you were mechanically inclined since you walked in with Master Drasoft. Sweet lady, Malin. I acctually met her a few years ago, back when she had taken her first padawan and the Jedi Order was barely a faded memory. She's holding together really well for all that she's been through. " Gracleya grinned, and turned a corner, leading Michael through stands full of document from various authors and ages. "Lets see," Aged hands ran along the shelfs, scanning, "Let's see... Ah! Here we are." She took a data-board from the shelf and handed it to Michael, "This is on prosthetic limbs. From this point," she indicated where she had just taken the data board from and waved down the aisle, "on, you can find information on 'Jedi tech' as you call it." her grinn grew larger and she asked, "Is there anything else you need?"

Jaden followed Josu to the entrance, the aroma from the place was already strong and mouthwatering. Jaden put a hand on his masters shoulder, "You keep the soup, I'm craving the steak." Jaden pushed the door open with his free hand and allowed Josu passage. It felt good to be back, now Jaden realized that more than ever. He almost forgot he'd been dead to this girl for over a year and now in a day they were almost back to normal. As long as he avoided mentioning Drake he'd be fine. Unfortunately it would be only right that he'd tell her what happened that night. As a lady just half a foot shorter than he approached, that thought was pushed back as well. "Well well well, so you are still here." Jaden smiled at another old friend.
---
Michael took a quick skim through the data-board, eyes scanning with precision and speed. "Yes, thank you Madame." He left her to go help the younger padawans in the library while he moved to a desk in the study. He looked over the files to the mentally marked pages of the data. Prosthetic limb nerves, customization, lightsaber design...all he needed to improve himself as a jedi on the field. "Perfect." Michael pulled out a digital sketch pad out of his pocket and started sketching his project.

The shorter woman placed her hands on her hips and gave the two jedi a feirce glare, "Well, I was starting to think you guys had died!" A smile spread across her lips and she opened her arms in greating, "Where have you been? Come, come! I'll have the usual table set up!" Josu's smile didn't quite reach her eyes at the mention of death. She placed a calm hand upon Jaquell's upper arm, "We'll only need a table for two, hun." Jaquell's reaction was imediate and demanding, "Drake's not joining you?" Josu flinched inwardly and imediatly remembered why she chose to avoid her favorite little hole-in-the-wall; questions and memories. A sudden urge to run out the doors and head back to the Jedi Temple and to her room reveiled itself in a half-step backwards, but Josu pushed her fears back down and decided to reply with, "I- it's a long story." Her words came out in a sigh that only enhanced the decided secrecy.
