It Only Takes a Spark to start a Fire (Darth Ferus)

[Pyro]

The Mustafar system.. A volcanic planet home to the seventh Alpha, Pyro, the Fire being. A Sithspawn gone out of control of its masters. Now on her new home, where she thought she could be safe, she would be found.

Pyro was in her lair meditating on the wherabouts of her siblings when she felt an evil presence near, a presence with the feeling of a Sith. A great and powerful Sith Lord. Rising from her position on the floor of her room, the young Alpha donned a cloak and made for the spaceport that was not too far from the abandoned mining facility she lived in, determined to seek out this Sith, whoever they were.

[Darth Ferus]

Across the surface a lone man walked beside the molten lava. Dressed in a simple robe with only a single lightsaber on his hip, one would think he would burst into flame. Yet he didn't, and as he walked it became clear as to why. He was absorbing the heat, and releasing it as a black flame billowing off of his form. So close to the lava the fire was large, practically engulfing his features. He did not know [member="Pyro"] was on the planet, but he did feel something as she began to search for him.

Something that made him very, very interested.

 

[Pyro]

Pyro surveyed her surroundings, reaching out with the Force to try and pinpoint any possible locations this Sith could be. After a few frustrating minutes, she decided to walk down to the river, and upon reaching an outcropping over it, saw a peculiar figure strolling beside it. A column of smoke covered practically all of the being's features, making it very hard for Pyro to determine whether this was a friend or foe. Her mental instincts were screaming foe, so she decided on just observing for the moment, her curiosity riding as high as the pillar of smoke.

As [member="Pyro"] 's presence grew nearer, his pace slowed. Still he could not see the girl, and still he did not know what it was. Rather than try to find it though, he simply turned to the lava lake, his golden eyes glancing over it as his black flame continued to flick about his form. He was content for the moment, and anything short of a surprise attack wouldn't change that fact.

 

[Pyro]

Pyro made her move when she saw that the figure had stopped. Leaping over the side of the crevice, Pyro landed a few feet behind it on her hands and feet. She made no move to attack just yet, she just looked up at him and spoke calmly and clearly.

"Who are you and what do you want." Pyro was on fire for effect, having no clue that the man before her was immune to the very thing for which she was created.

Slowly golden eyes would become clear as the man turned his head to look at [member="Pyro"] . Another who could manipulate flames similar to himself? Slowly the black flame dissipate as he turned fully, walking from the heat right up to the female. Ferus made no attempt to speak to her just yet, both hands clasped behind his back as he did so. He did not seem afraid of the fire, and once he got close he would finally answer.

"I am Darth Ferus. Lord of the Sith. Who are you?"

 

[Pyro]

Pyro stood up and eyed [member="Darth Ferus"] suspiciously. At one time, a Sith would've been an ally, a master, but now they were enemies that had used her for war. She decided to be wary of him.

"The locals call me Phoenix, but you didn't answer my second question. What is a Sith doing on Mustafar?" Pyro was in a battle ready position, but still made no move to attack.

 

[Darth Ferus]

"It's a lovely place. Would you believe me if I simply stated I enjoyed the view?" Golden eyes glinted with amusement as he looked the small girl over. She was clearly not some lost child, not here in the land of fire, and her manipulation of the flames about her were still so very interesting. "Tell me Phoenix, where did you learn how to control the flames as you do? I've been looking to train myself in some more advanced ways, but I can't seem to find the time."

 

[Pyro]

"Probably not." She felt his gaze look her over before he asked his next question.

"Tell me Phoenix, where did you learn how to control the flames as you do? I've been looking to train myself in some more advanced ways, but I can't seem to find the time."

"I've been trained as a pyromancer since I could crawl. Perhaps you just need more practice. Where did you learn to make black flames? I've only ever been able to change color by the heat." Pyro created a ball of fire in her hand and changed its heat to white.
