Flight- Monday- 3rd period

The class was back in the Danger Shop today, which was set up to look a lot like the island on a normal day. But with the guy standing next to her that some people might recognize, that should probably be a sign that it wasn't a 100% normal class. The swoop bikes on display might have been another sign.

"Hey, guys," Jaina said. "Today's class isn't so much about flying, exactly, but we're all just going to have to deal with that. Today we're working with swoop bikes. And for this class, I'm going to toss this over to a guy who knows a little more about this subject than I do, Zayne Carrick."

"Hey, everyone," Zayne said. He was glad to have a couple days of leave so that he could actually be somewhere without being in uniform. "As you may know, Jaina and I are from the same galaxy but very different times. Back in my time, swoop racing is pretty much the biggest sport there is. And I've spent a large part of my life on Taris, where the majority of the swoops in the galaxy are made. So riding around on one of this is what my friends and I did all the time when we weren't studying or training."

Zayne continued, "If you're at all familiar with motorcycles, it's kind of like that, but much faster and it doesn't touch the ground. And if you're familiar with jets, it's also kind of like that, but much slower and without anything between you and the wind. So it's a lot of fun."

"So for today," Jaina said, "you guys are going to get on these and race around the island. From here around the outside of the island and back. Whoever wins... gets praise and adulation for the day."

"I can accept that," Zayne said. "Me, I'm going to stay very positive and hope it doesn't happen again at all. Or at least that I'll miss it again."

"Well, my personal history says that I'll always get some kind of closure. Not necessarily the way you'd expect, and definitely not with the dead coming back to life. But things always come together eventually," Zayne mused.

"I've come to terms with it. Which was going to have to happen eventually anyway," Zayne half-joked.
