*When Terra suggested they go back to the base, Morgan reluctantly agreed, though at least now they could look forward to future plans. But then Jake stopped to get dressed first, looking somewhat embarrassed, and Morgan giggled. Oh, Jake. But, unfortunately, he was right, so Morgan once more donned her dress, and, after waiting for Terra to also get dressed, she led them on their way back to the base, once more bidding Rush farewell, and entering the base, putting another exciting adventure behind her.*

It had been a while since Kulaan had managed to get some time to come back out here. She had not traveled very far, the base was still in sight. It was one of the few areas that was still safe enough for this that she could reach in a reasonable amount of time. As a child it had given her some trouble but she had, quite some time ago, gotten over her discomfort around heights. Now after having been training at the Felucian Jedi base for several years now such fears were quite well and gone. For quite some time now "climbing" trees had been a bit of an enjoyment. No longer just going from branch to branch she would leap from them sometimes spanning an 8 foot drop and landing on a swaying branch with little difficulty. Pausing after a moment in a section of branches that held a clear view of the base she stopped to think of how long she had been out here. Surely it was getting close to lunch. She sniffed as she was downwind from the base. Sure enough she could smell it from here... her favorite lunch option was on the menu. Grinning She looks down and decides its a little much for a straight jump out of the tree. She spots 3 likely branches and jumps descending rapidly from the branches she was on her tail aiding her ballance as she descended.. Hitting the ground she jogged off towards the base.
She looked up spotting what looked like a shuttle landing in the hangar. Probably more supplies nothing too critical there. Although it did seem slightly different from most. It didn't seem to matter to her she would be back at the base in decent time and there was no need to rush to have lunch. Afterwards she would probably head off to the training halls for some more practice.

Terra exited the base, and spotted Morgan already a little ways ahead of her on the path and she waved to the girl."Hey Morgan!"She jogged over, very glad to be back in the jungle again after having spent most of her time in the base doing odd jobs and sitting in on some classes and training sessions. But now she was back in the jungle and wanted to waste no time."So good to be back out here..."

*Morgan had made it outside first, which should've been a surprise to no one as her enthusiasm for the jungle was unrivaled. She was again dressed in her Felucian garb, lightsaber hanging from the waist, backpack, bow, and quiver slung across her back. Lokay was perched on her shoulder and Rush sat on the ground before her as she smiled and lovingly stroked his head, something the akk seemed to enjoy.
She turned when Terra called out her name, then smiled and approached her friend as she jogged out to meet her. When Terra expressed that it was good to be back out here, Morgan beamed, happy that she shared her enthusiasm, and nodded.* Yeah, and it'll be for a whole day and night too! So, are ya ready? *Silly question, she knew, but she liked sharing her enthusiasm this way. It made things more fun.*

Terra nodded."I'm ready!"She noticed the Felucian dress that Morgan was wearing and wondered again if she could get one from them as well, though she would wait to ask until they actually got to the village. In the meantime, it was going to be a long walk, but she didn't mind.

Well then, let's go! *Morgan beckoned her onward, and thus they began their march through the jungle, Rush taking to the deeper brush once again to patrol. This would likely be the last time Morgan and Terra would get to spend together in the jungle, so she was going to make the most of it. She hoped. It didn't mean she and Terra would never see each other again when Terra left. She hoped. So they journeyed on through the jungle, Morgan hoping to make good time so they could reach the village as early as possible. But as they passed by a certain landmark, Morgan had to stop. Sure, she wanted to get there fast, but that didn't mean they couldn't have a little fun on the way there... so she turned and grinned at Terra.* Wanna swim in the lake for a bit?

Terra followed Morgan through the jungle, sighing as she realized that this might very well be the last time that she got to be in the jungle before she left Felucia. Hopefully this would be the best trip of all, to give her some happy memories to look back on while she was braving her Trials.
They stopped at the lake, and Terra grinned back at Morgan. They had to get to the village today, but surely there was time for a swim."Sure!"She walked to the shores and set her bag down, before shedding all of her clothing without hesitation and splashing into the lake, with Morgan surely not far behind her. It was strange, that when she had first arrived here, taking her clothes off was a scary thing for her, but now she didn't mind being naked one bit. She had Morgan to thank for that...

*Morgan should've known the answer would've been yes. She giggled and didn't hesitate to also strip down and jump into the water. She had to enjoy this as much as she can, for it could be the last time they spent skinny-dipping together for a long time. She made sure to go deep enough so that she could paddle around, but not so deep where Terra couldn't follow. They had to play together one last time, after all.*

Terra laughed and splashed some water at Morgan, intending to win the water fight this time. No way she could leave Felucia without at least one win in the water fight department. At least one win and she could at least say that she had won at least once...

*Morgan squealed and splashed back. The water war was on. Would Terra win this time? Morgan wondered if she let her, or make her earn her victory. Either way, she was going to put her all into not only the fight, but enjoying every moment of it.*

Terra returned fire, sending a series of rapid splashes at Morgan, hoping to overwhelm her with sheer firepower this time. The girl was no doubt planning a sneak attack, but this time, Terra would be ready for it. She was winning this water fight no matter what...

*Morgan dove underwater to evade Terra's incoming attack, but Terra would probably expect her to try sneaking up behind her again. So this time, Morgan merely remained underwater, drawing the Force into her and waiting for Terra's barrage to be complete. Then she shot up into the air, bringing a large wave with her that shot in all directions, but mostly forward. She landed back in the water, giggling; not quite a victory, but definitely hopefully a surprise attack.*

Terra had been expecting the usual tactic of Morgan sneaking up on her from behind, so she braced herself. But when she stopped splashing, Morgan was still under the water, and instead of latching onto her from behind, the girl had gone for a head on splashing assault. Terra tried to shield herself from it, but overbalanced and fell backwards into the water. She came up, spluttering and laughing, and started to concentrate with the Force. Normally that might have gotten her to surrender, but not this time. Using the Force, she retaliated with a wave of her own, sending it right at Morgan, though she didn't get much power behind the attack so it likely wouldn't travel very far. Hopefully far enough to give Morgan a good splashing...

*Morgan's attack had worked better than expected, knocking Terra down into the water. She grinned, waiting for Terra's retaliation, which came in the form of a wave that splashed over her and dragged her deeper into the water. Morgan happily let herself go with the flow, then when the wave settled she popped up, drawing one arm across her body to join with her other, which she drew back, gathering up the Force and extending it into the water as she swung both her arms across her body, sending another semi-large wave of water at Terra. She recovered and paddled in place, beaming with enjoyment.*

Terra had expected Morgan to counterattack and simply ducked under the water to avoid it, and that was when she got an idea. Staying under the water, she quickly pulled herself along until she had gotten behind Morgan and rose up, quickly wrapping her arms around the girl in a tight embrace.
Giggling, she hugged Morgan tightly."I got you!"

*Her attack seemed to be more than successful, knocking Terra under the water. Which made Morgan concerned; Terra still hadn't learned to swim yet. That meant that— ... did she really expect Morgan wouldn't be able to see her underwater? There wasn't much Morgan could do about that though other than to laugh and try to escape her approach. But there would be no escape this time, as Terra came out of the water and snatched her up. Morgan squealed, but Terra was also hugging her as she declared that she had gotten her. Morgan smiled and wrapped her arms around Terra to return the hug... ... then a moment later she attempted to tickle her into letting Morgan go. It was what Terra suggested last time, so Morgan was going to use it against her! As opposed to other, grosser methods...*

Terra squealed and dropped Morgan to escape the tickling, but she was very glad that it was tickling and not...that other thing that Morgan had done. Oh well. She had been forced to drop Morgan, but the fight was still on, and she lunged forwards towards the girl, trying to grab her again and still giggling. The sneak attack hadn't been very sneak come to think of it, but it had worked, so that was something to build on.

*The tactic actually worked! As Morgan was dropped back in the water, she recovered quickly and propelled herself away from Terra, managing to avoid the lunge toward her. She giggled and retaliated by attempting to draw her off with a series of splashes, though realized she was heading too close to shore. She had to move back out to the deeper water if she wanted to keep an edge in this game of theirs...*

Terra laughed as she chased Morgan around the lake, trying to shield herself from the splashes as she went. She saw that they were getting close to the shore and that gave her the advantage. In shallower water, she could move more easily, so if she was going to catch Morgan, now was the time. She lunged at Morgan again, trying to grab her and hopefully pin her arms so she wouldn't be tickled again.

*Morgan tried to swim away from Terra and back out to the deeper areas, but it was no use, as Terra managed to lunge forward again and this time actually grab up Morgan, pinning her arms so that she couldn't try tickling her. So Morgan tried kicking. Not too hard of course, as she didn't want to actually hurt Terra, but maybe enough to be a nuisance.* Lemme go! *She futilely tried to extend her fingers toward what skin she could reach and try tickling Terra there, but chances were she wasn't ticklish in that area, so for now she had to resort to the kicks as well and hope that did something.*
