Death is healing

Quint watched what happened as Rowan fired the weapon.

Looking at Ripper with compassion as she continued to walk towards him.

She said, "I'm sorry that someone tortured you. It is I will do my best to help end your pain. I promise you that." She raised hands channeling the force to break the connections between the machine portion of him and the creature. The technology was well developed and she could feel the machine trying to reestablish the connection as she worked.

She let Ripper's body drop to the ground as he continued to put his anger out at them. He was focused on Ghost and nothing else mattered, not even himself.

"Red, bring a lift and we should sedate him heavily to ease his pain and suffering," she said. When they loaded him on the lift and brought him back to the ship. Quint called his light saber to herself and put it out.

She said to Rowan, "Burial in space," as she brought the body up. She knelt down and stroked his hair continuing to keep his mind and the machine from reconnecting.

She also pushed our a sense of calm and peace to all that were on the ship. It was the feelings of a mother calming a crying child and she found herself humming as she knelt stroking his hair and face.

As she worked she was amazed and wanted to investigate how they did this to Ripper, near immortality. Part of her wanted to know, the Sith wanted to know. The voices tried to break her concentration, she pushed those same calming soothing feelings at the assassin as well.

She said to the others, "We need to help him soon."
