Ahsoka wished she could have been surprised when the hyperdrive blew. She really did, but this battered hunk of junk claiming to be a ship made her wish fondly for the Twilight, so she was mostly grateful she'd been near a system when it'd unexpectedly dropped out.
Of course, because it was that kind of day, she was elbow deep in the ship's guts, when the proximity alarms started blaring, something she didn't have luxury of ignoring. If she was lucky, it'd be pirates.
It wasn't pirates. But it wasn't the Empire either. The space outside rippled and coalesced into a shining, shimmering mass, like some kind of beacon in the dark. Ahsoka threw herself into the pilot's chair, but some stray nudge of the Force had her piloting towards it instead of away.
After what seemed like an instant and an eternity, the ship emerged in atmosphere, but as the screaming of the repulsors going redline didn't leave her much time for sightseeing as she tried to find a place to land.
She'd just managed to touch down in what looked like some kind of salvage yard when a final series of loud bangs came from vicinity of the sublight systems.
Great, now she'd have to fix that too.
[For one.]
