Captain Yarrick gazed at the large knight sitting across from him in the Transport shuttle. Even with the Knight armor on he could see the man's massive figure. The captain had seen bigger men, hell he'd killed bigger men, but something about Knight Drazhar made him nervous. It wasn't his personality, Drazhar was actually fairly easy to get along with, it seemed to be blatantly obvious but Yarrick just couldn't point it out.
	[color=f26522]"It's my willingness to die"[/color] Drazhar said, his deep voice calmly echoing through the ship, [color=f26522]"That's what's making you uneasy."[/color]
    "Did the force tell you that" Yarrick said cracking a smile. The knight smiled back, and Yarrick realized he was right."Didn't expect a guy like you to be like this, honestly I was expecting you to be a lot harsher and rough around the edges"
 	[color=f26522]"Just because I exist to serve and die for the emperor doesn't mean I can't make a few friends along the way. No reason to breed contempt with someone that'll be behind me firing a blaster anyways"[/color] 
	"Yeah I guess you're right, they tell you who we'll be fighting out here anyways? They've been keeping me in the dark" Yarrick said, realizing he'd let his curiosity best his judgement.
   [color=f26522] "I don't know much, either they're keeping both of us in the dark or they don't even know"[/color] The knight said, before adding, [color=f26522]"I have a feeling they didn't send a decorated vet and a Knight out here for no reason though"[/color]
 

An intercom announcement cut into the conversation [color=0072bc]"We are beginning our descent, arriving on the outpost in 3 minutes, or 1 if we fail to properly land"[/color] 
	The landing was fairly smooth, and took about three minutes. Captain Yarrick and Knight Drazhar undid their safety belts and stood up. The blast door at the rear of the shuttle depressurized and lowered with a satisfying hydraulic [i]Hssssssssss[/i]. As soon as the men stepped onto the landing platform they realized just how beautiful the planet was. A lush forest sprawled in every direction, off in the distance a small mountain range sprouted from the ground, and a river separated part of the dense forest.

	"Of course I'd be forced to stay here, place looks like a fooking vacation planet and I'll be organizing guard patrols." Yarrick said disdainfully 
   [color=f26522]"I'm almost ashamed that we will be fighting in such a gorgeous place, but It'd be an honor to die for the Emperor here"[/color] Drazhar said before looking down at the Captain. They both began to laugh, and Yarrick realized he no longer felt nervous being near the Knight.
