Learning time

[Cleopatra]

Cleo sat quietly on the ground in the location she had been told to meet [member="Hasjo Hallu"]. It been a few days since Cleo had meet him and left her for more home to come here to become a Jedi. The young Twi'lek was excited and happy to learn, and wondered what today would hold for her. while she waited Cleo played with a small rock in her hands.

 

[Lord Gaius]

Hasjo Hallu, Jedi Knight of the Silver Order stalked into the courtyard, outside the temple. He shrugged off the silver cloak and tossed it aside, standing in a light grey tunic, dark grey trousers with black, leather boots. He looked her up, tossing her the training blade he had given her days prior "Your training begins now." He ignited his own lightsaber, a Lightsaber Pike. It was a double-bladed weapon, but only one blade was lit. "Shii-Cho is a basic and simple form, but it's simplicity gives it strength. There are six body targets you must be aware of. The head, the right arm and side, the left arm and side, the back, right leg and left leg." He took a stance in front of her. He wouldn't rely on training helmets, he'd let her learn through trial and error. The plasma setting on his lightsaber set to the lowest possible - it would only leave a bruise. "Form I was created by the ancient Jedi during the transition from metal swords to energy beam lightsabers, and the principles of blade contact remain essentially the same."

Cleo caught the training blade and stood up from where she had been sitting crosslegged. She remained quiet as he spoke Listening intently to his words. It was only until he finished speaking that Cleo spoke " That's really Cool, and amazing that it is still used now after so many years" she said smiling as she ignited her training saber.

Hasjo demonstrated the stance of Shii-Cho. He had his body face left, away from Cleo. His head turned to face her. He brought his lightsaber across his chest, defending his major body target. His left hand lowered in a clenched fist for balance. "This is the most basic stance. You minimalise your target zones whilst also defending them." He would wait for her to take the stance before lunging out with a quick jab in an attempt to break her defence.

Cleo watched him closely before she copied his stance " Like this?" She asked as he focused on keeping her balance. The Twi'lek watched her teacher waiting for him to make a move or speak again.

He lunged out with his lightsaber. A series of slow attacks to test her balance in the stance before speeding up. Each attack becoming more powerful and with great speed. He was testing her endurance, and to outmatch her. To learn through trial and error. It was how he had learned, and it was how he would teach her.

Cleo managed to block a good bit of the attacks, but when they got to fask for her to block then she lost her balance when taking a step back and ended up falling onto her but. " Ouch!" The young twi'lek said with a sigh.

 

[Lord Gaius]

"Ouch!" The young [member="Cleopatra"] said with a sigh.
Hasjo stepped forward, offering his hand "There will be times when you will get hurt. But you always must stand back up. And never be afraid to ask a friend for help." He would help her back up onto her feet - if she accepted his offer. He would motion for her to begin anew with the form, for they would try again.

Cleo took his hand and got back to her feet, brushing herself off some before. " Alright, I'm ready to try again" She said as she return to the same stance as she had taken before.
