One More Hit (open)

"You sure about this?"

"No... but that isn't the point."

"Then what is the point again?"

"We are trying to determine the value of this concept described in the datacron."

"But it is an initiates game to teach them how to focus."

"Then you should have no problem with in then should you?"

"Ah."

"Exactly you need to know the basics before the advanced stuff, my master Asha taught me that... now get over there and I want you to hold the saber at your waist. Then point it towards me while we go over the zons of contact and then I expect and full twelve page report on your work."

There were groans as the tall zeltron stood with her saber in her hand and the cloak over her near full bodysuit. Datapads and datacrons strewn about the holochamber for practicing.

Arrik was wandering past the temple corridors admiring the architecture when he stumbled upon the training session. It had been a very long time since he had been in an actual session with anyone. He paused curiously and stopped to look inside. Saber training? As he was now a guardian...he could use some skill in all of the forms.

He took a few steps forward before pausing in the door way, arms crossed over his chest as he cocked a brow and watched. His cloak was pushed back revealing his right arm and the weapon on his hip. The emerald saber had been hidden for fear of those who would report him to the authorities.

He cleared his throat and bowed quietly before speaking up, "Do you mind if I join you?". He took a few steps into the room, keeping himself on the ready to leave if he was rejected.

There was a sound coming as she turned, the jedi knight turning the attention to the man and bowing. "Here you always welcome." She offered a smile and motioned for him to join the others while turning her attention moved around the room letting the others get into a better line. "Now does anyone have any questions in regards to the traditional and the exotics saber forms?" She kept her eyes slowly darts from each face making eye contact while letting her cloak to keep her hands that were nervously fiddling concealed.

Arrik kept quiet taking a spot behind a few others. He kept his hands at his side, not wanting to interrupt or speak out when the knight was taking. He knew the basics of all styles, but knew none of them better than simple proficiency. He kept his hands on the saber.

He listened to a few of the questions before he removed the shoulder cloak over his right arm. The students other students all seemed to be much younger than him, he had of course been much younger when he fled the temple.

He set his cloak down on the floor in a corner of the room not covered in holocrons and turned back to the teacher. "What, may I ask, is your favorite form?"

Her attention went to the others while the one was getting ready. She unclasped the cloak from her neck revealing a more modest bodysuit with duraplast framing for protection. She had upgraded somewhat and held a small grin on her face making sure her hair was tied up. "I prefer to not fight but when I must I use Djem So to allow an opponent to tire themselves out and then counter them." She motioned and brushed at her bodysuit to get any string from the cloak off before she was motioning. "But like most jedi I have studied the forms and understand them which makes me able to help teach to students. Which form would you prefer?"

 

[Anomalie]

"I personally prefer the fourth form. But if it comes to a battle of perseverance than I end up going to form six." Arrik replied as he turned to face the Jedi Knight. She had taken her own cloak off as well, making it appear as though she was ready to spar a few of her student.

Arrik smirked and turned to her getting into the opening stance of Ataru. The other students had all brought out their own lightsabers so Arrik followed suit, the emerald blade glowing quietly.

"Would you care to spar with me? I never seemed to catch your name." Arrik asked turning towards the teacher.

She looked at him and then at the blade as the emerald color sprang to life. A small grin on her face. "I am called Je'daii." She stood there now though holding the blade hilt out before it activated with a snap hiss. The golden blade settling with a hum while her stance was open but still tight, shifting her footing to present the smallest target but still able to move and counter before she bowed her head. "I believe that a spar would be welcomed."

@Je'daii

"Well met Je'daii, my name is Arrik Terran." The young man looked at the brilliant golden blade of the knight. Amazing. He had been told that such a blade existed, though he never had seen one with his own eyes. He nodded and slowly stepped around, both hands gripped the handle of his blade.

He took a deep breath and leapt forward, spinning in the air and bringing his shimmering emerald blade down with a powerful swipe. His force imbued acrobatics certainly one of his stronger points of conbat. Though she was able to fight and strike at him in every way. The perfect opponent to teach him.

He landed on his feet as the crackle of saber hissed in the air.

Her eyes were shifting and flicking while the movement was in the force, something useful to sense and feel as he swiped. The force acting with her reflexes and tension in her body while time slowed into the slow beating of her heart. One half of her vision felt like her body was reacting to something that wasn't there and the other was watching in slow motion the swipe when he was coming down. Crouching lower to reduce but also build power in the limbs for a counter attack with her blade moving to meet it and be below. Her attempt at a saber lock then push back to kock it to the side while legs came up with a bicycle kick.
