Kayen started to walk with Jor, his blue eyes darting around as he figured Jor must have a map or something. When he was asked the question, Kayen sighed softly but he was honest about it "You look like a living suit of armor, like an exoskeleton... it's kind of cool..." Kayen and Jor reached the exit, visibly in range of his Aggressor Assault Fighter. Kayen pointed to it but he was not paying attention to his surroundings now.

"Well, the jury is still out on it." Jor said as they reached the exit. It was locked, but from the inside. Jor tried to unlock it but he couldn't move his fingers with enough precision to manipulate the lock so he gave up and slammed his fist into it, smashing the lock. He followed it up with a swift kick, knocking the door off it's hinges.
However there was something he didn't expect. The idea of the lock was to keep people on the outside from getting in. it worked for the most part, but White's organization had seen fit to install a backup plan. A claymore was built into the door which was programmed to explode if the door opened without having been unlocked. The claymore was pointed away from them but the explosion still shocked Jor. His suit reacted immediately however, retractable plates slid over his larger joints and the suit got into a bracing stance. The explosion washed over him like a wave but he stood firm.

As Kayen was pointing to his ship, the claymore exploded and shrapnel tore into his left arm. He fell to the ground screaming as he gripped at the smoking limp arm. Pieces of flesh had been torn off and a huge piece of debris was lodged all the way through the bone rendering the arm completely useless. "SON OF A!!! FUUUCK!!!!!!!"

"Great." Jor said recovering from the hardened stance. He picked Kayen up by the color of his shirt and carried him out to his ship. "Kayen, focus now. I need you to open the door for me so i can get in there and fly us out of here."

Kayen nodded and then he bit into his lip as he reached out with his free hand and punched in the 7-digit code on the keypad. He sighed loudly as he returned his hand to squeezing the other shoulder tightly trying to stop his bleeding. He spoke through a mouthful of pain "The launch codes are bypassed, the engine initializers are rigged for quick start... everything should be smooth sailing out. Put me in the co-pilot chair... I need something to focus on or I'll go into shock......"

Jor set him down in the co-pilots seat and looked at the controls. He was a great pilot, but that didn't matter if he'd never seen the control setup before, which he hadn't. He was looking for everything he'd need and the suit registered his need. A datastick sprang from his right index finger. Jor shrugged and inserted it into the Astromech droid access port. The suit went to work, looking for the ships computerized flight manual and downloading it.
Jor reached up and flipped the three switches which set the ships engines to VTOL and goosed the throttle. The ship lifted off the ground and he used the yolk to put them on a coarse. He was receiving instructions as if by instinct. The suit was feeding him information from the flight manual.
he put the ship on a coarse for orbit. "how you holding up there chief?" Jor asked taking off his helmet. he could feel the wires at the bottom of his neck stretch as he moved his head from side to side. He also could feel that he was shaved bald.

Kayen quickly tore off his shirt and wrapped it around his shoulder tightly to cut off the blood flow and then he pulled a small box from under the chair and he pulled out an already filled syringe with a needle and injected it into his arm. It was clearly an illegal substance, but Kayen visibly relaxed almost immediately and then he looked at Jor. "I'll be okay but the arm is gone... are you okay? What happened?"

"i don't know" Jor said, more to himself then to Kayen. He piloted the ship into orbit and plotted a coarse to a hyperspae lane.
"Last thing i remember was the Yuuzhan Vong worldship. I inhaled something and then blacked out." Jor said as he throttled up the engines. The stars elongated and the ship jumped to hyperspace.

Kayen winced painfully as the hyperspace jump jarred him.
