Having just dropped out of lightspeed, the power on the shuttle finally gave out, navigation, engines, life support; all dead. Ashlyna was at her wits end, it had taken everything she had just to get to this point, but it seemed that her luck had finally run out. She glanced down at the mess of tool kits and spare parts she had mustered together in the cockpit, along with the remains of the dashboard for the controls. She couldn't think what else to do, the spare battery pack she had tried to keep the ship computer alive on had just shorted out, she had no way to reignite the engines from here, and at her current course she would drift for close to a week before the planet eventually grabbed hold and sent her hurtling through the atmosphere. Her only hope was that the force had lead her to the right place, and that if her allies were still on world, they would find her before she suffocated. She hurt everywhere now, her muscles were sore from all the labor she had been preforming around the ship, and frankly she had lost count of how long she had been stuck in her metal coffin. She might have bothered with the emergency beacon, but the ion storm she had got caught in claimed that as well; including most of the on board electronics, hell that got her in this situation in the first place. Getting up and moving into the holding bay, she pushed aside several electronic and scrap metal parts, then remembered she had been using this as her soldering bench for the past few days. Frowning, she moved to the other bench instead, not having to worry about sleeping on bits of molten scrap. Her back flared up in pain, as the metal bench was hardly a comfortable sleeping area, but she had no where else to sleep for the time being. She guessed she had only a few days for someone to find the ship before the oxygen ran out, assuming she could keep in her force trance that long. As she closed her eyes and began to enter into her trance, her thoughts lingered onto her failed mission, the deaths of her master and friends on Ord Mantell, and finally Tycho himself. Despite her dry eyes, Ash felt a bit a moisture well up at that thought, but refused to let it take a negative turn. She would put her life in the hands of the force, and hope that despite her failings, she would at least she her friend before death claimed her. Feeling a little bit better about the fate that awaited her, Ashlyna drifted off to sleep, her body appearing to be in a near death state, as she called upon the force to slow her life functions. Now it was up to fate to sort out was to be done, after all, Ashlyna had come to this world on a gamble, hopefully now it would pay off.
