[OOM] Kazic III - Cä-Iudän.

There's not really any such thing as a morning on Kazic III, but if there was, now would be it. There are people starting to mill around the village, setting up market stalls, and off on a higher cliff, guards running through training.

There's something approaching breakfast (some kind of mostly tasteless porridge) being made in the Tae household, but Jaq is conspicuously absent.

"It's not his fault." Guppy says. "It's important that he should be taught that."

He sighs.

"If we can get everyone to the spaceport, then maybe we can find someone who can fly a ship to take us with them."

Kate commented to Teja, "Because some people are backward and stupid, and just want to point fingers."

She added, "Still the matter of getting there to the port safely in time. We have to be prepared."

"If there's an evacuation ship, it'll go to towns that don't have spaceports. Not this village, we're too small, but there's a larger town a few day's journey by tauntaun where it should stop."

"And how long will it take until those Mandalorians attack?" Teja asks.

"We should pack." Guppy insists.

"We'll help you get to that town," Kate agreed.

Teja has nothing to pack, and he doubts that carrying children to that town will indeed be of help, but is willing to try, or die trying.

Unlike Guppy and Kate, he at least is likely to return to Milliways after the attempt, with Demeter, Carlotta and Charlie ready, hopefully, to once more restore his memory of his afterlife.

"Did you even bring anything with you when you came here? I'm not sure how much you even have to pack," the old woman says.

"My kit bag is still packed, I meant we should help your family pack."

"That's exactly what we meant," She agreed.

"We should stop arguing, and instead be put to work," Teja insists.

"We don't know which of us will be picked for evacuation yet. When we do, we'll put you to work packing for us."

[personal profile] guppy_sandhu 2009-09-14 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"How are people 'picked'?" Guppy asks, not liking the sound of that. "Don't women and children get priority?"

"I bet it's more who has influence and money," Kate remarked in aside to Guppy and Teja.

In a louder voice she added, "You're all getting out of here, we'll find a way."

"Who would make such choices?" Teja says. "When we were routed, in my home world, we took with us all that we could, and left none behind that could still walk."

"There won't be enough ships for the entire population. I don't know how they'll selectwho gets evacuated."

"It could be first in the queue." Guppy points out.

[identity profile] nothawkingbird.livejournal.com 2009-09-14 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"Has there ever been any evacuation procedures before? I don't mean planet wide like this, but in regions? How does it work then?"

"Do not the people get a say?" Teja says. "After all, no mother would take her place and leave even one of her children, but would give up her place for them!"

"You're asking entirely the wrong person."
guppy_sandhu: (unbreakmyheart)

[personal profile] guppy_sandhu 2009-09-15 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"I still think you need to pack." Guppy says. "So that you're ready when the choosing has happened."

"Might as well, is there anything else needed in the meantime?"

"I do not like the way this world works," Teja says, going for the basics that he cannot do anything about. "But in the meanwhile, I will be of use in any way you may think of."

"Leave me be for a moment. I need space to think."

Guppy nods, and quietly helps with breakfast.
