Into the woods

[Lily Hex-Volsh]

Her young eyes gleamed and widened as she saw a blossom form on his hand. One could do such a thing with the force She knew the one could become one and use it to enhance ones strength or speed or even heal the deadliest of wounds but to create something even small like flowers from the life around them. The force was such a wonderous thing; she caught the tart and looked up to her instructor with a grin and took a bite of the sweet tart blossom. "Mmm...." She hummed lightly as she pressed her hands on her cheek. She enjoyed anything with a sweet taste to them and this was no different. "Thank you." She said to [member="Jak Sandrow"].

She did everything she could mimicking his movements as he did them, she took in a breathe and allowed to the force flow through her. How he could manipulate the force and the bark with the greatest of ease she did not know. But she continued to try, attempting to feel the force as he did. From how he spoke and how he form the bark it was as if he was one with not only the force the everything else around him, as the force should be in living things. She took in a deep breath and reached out a hand starting to feel and understand. "This is amazing, Plant man." She murmured as she continued to concentrate.

 

[Jak Sandrow]

He could feel her moving with the Force, and waited for something to happen.

She was very rough and awkward with the Force, but that was to be expected. With practice, she could become one of the best. "Feel, don't think... See if you can catch a stick." A small, blunt stick rose from the ground and tossed itself to her.

She took a breath and caught the stick that came at her with the force. "I feel it master," She said controlling her breath while doing so.

Another blunt stick rose up out of the ground behind her, and threw itself at her.

She took a in a breath and felt the stick coming behind her and quickly raise her hand, instead of stopping it with the force caught it quickly with her hand.

"Unfortunately," Jak said, walking forward, hands behind his back, "if that had been a blaster bolt, your hand would have a hole in it the size of a credit. If you're lucky."

A large boulder lifted from the dirt with an ominous clunk, and slowly drifted in the air towards [member="Lily Hex-Volsh"]. "Pick this up with the Force, and hold it in place."

It was far larger than the rocks she had just been progressing with, and that was intentional. The four cubic meters of rock had been selected by Jak to be nigh-impossible to move. Right now. It was a goal, something to work towards. There was no way she could possibly move it. [really, don't.]

The boulder set itself down gently next to her feet.

 

[Lily Hex-Volsh]

"Well.....Can the force really deflect a blaster bolt?" She asked curiously. Did the little beings inside her give her that ability to deflect blaster fire, even something big like rockets? The force was truly an amazing thing. "Easy!" Confidently said by her when he ask her to do such an easy task at least it was in his mind. She took a breath and used the force to try to move the boulder. "Mmm...!!" she grunted and groan but the thing would not budge. "Man....That was....Hard." She said with a heavy breath.

Jak nodded. "When you can lift this boulder, and spin it around on your pinkie finger... then you are a Knight.

"For now," he finished, tossing a rock to her, "start with these."

[member="Lily Hex-Volsh"]

 

[Lily Hex-Volsh]

"Gotcha..." She said determined to get that boulder. She used the force to catch the rocks he threw at her and kept training.

"Best of luck," Jak smiled. His wrist beeped, and he checked his commlink. "Whoops. I need to be somewhere. ... Same time tomorrow, or... What works for you?"

[member="Lily Hex-Volsh"]

 

[Lily Hex-Volsh]

"Works for me, Mr. Plant man." She said to [member="Jak Sandrow"].

 

[Jak Sandrow]

"See you then."
