practice makes perfect(Open to anyone, trying to get some lightsaber training)

[Salvor Arnex]

Alone in the darkness of an empty training room was a young, yellow-skinned Zabrak in bare feet and naked from the waist up, intricate black tattoos wound all around his body in a way that was both beautiful and intimidating. He had come here to learn but so far he had found no one willing to teach, it was no matter soon he would have someone to help him realize his potential. For now he would sharpen what little skill he had.

He ignited his light saber and began practicing the fundamentals of Shii-cho, his crimson blade cutting a path in the dark, slow at first as he fanned the flames of his passion growing closer to the force with each maneuver of each sequence. The soles of his feet tapped softly on the training room floor in a sort of rhythm marking every advance and retreat against his invisible opponent.

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

The Training room door opens and a Armored figure comes in. Lightsaber mounted on belt and covered head to toe in a Cybernetic suit of sorts, The Figure was in and crossed his arms watching [member="Salvor Arnex"] the Zabrak train in Shii-Cho. Nulgath behind his mask could see this Acolyte was new and was making progress.

Nulgath tilted his head and spoke out from the doorway. " Do you need a Sparring Partner?" His voice echoed in the room sounding slightly deep and menacing.

Salvor repeated each sequence over and over, the speed of his movement increasing with each strike and parry, he was losing himself in the force, in the freedom of combat. His serenity was interrupted by a voice in the door way. Salvor turned to look and had to fight back a look of awe at the cybernetic form, Salvor was not one for theatrics but there was no denying that armor served its purpose. He deactivated his light saber, in a small show of respect for the warrior he did not know.

“Yes.” the answer was short and simple, much like Salvor himself He had never been much for words, maybe because he never had many people to talk to.

 

[Larkoon Darkmat'r]

"Mind if I watch...?"

That same chilling child-like voice that could only belong to a certain white zabrak echoed through the corridor. "I'd love to join the both of you..."

Slowly, the boy makes his way into the training room, his outfit a tunic with baggie pants and thin, shoelaceless shoes. Two training sabers bounce around his thin waist. It's been so long since the boy got to train his saber abilities, he's been so caught up in work. After this is over, his plans involve a little TK torture training.

"What do you gentlemen say...?"

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Nulgath drew his Saber having the blue light fill the room brightly. Nulgath then bowed and nodded at [member="Salvor Arnex"] to signify he was ready and took a Juyo Niman stance. Nulgath was a Practiced hand in Niman and loved the form dearly. Nulgath signaled to [member="Salvor Arnex"] to come.

" I dont mind.." he said looking at [member="Larkoon Darkmat'r"] "When ever your ready..." Nulgath stared at [member="Salvor Arnex"]

 

[Salvor Arnex]

Salvor ignored the new voice coming from the door way now only focusing on his opponent’s ligtsaber, salvor began to circle to the armored man’s left and reignited his saber the red blade a sharp contrast to his opponents cerulean blade. Salvor bowed his head to return the respect he was shown. As he circled Salvor stayed in form one, even with its supposed disadvantage in saber to saber combat it was the style he was most familiar with.

Salvor circled and struck, he stabbed his light saber at the man’s head anticipating the blow to be parried or dodged he followed up with a cross cut toward the man’s right shoulder hoping to cleave him in half.

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Nulgath dodging the head thrust, and dashed back tilting his body to he side so his armor could take a glanceing blow. [member="Salvor Arnex"] saber made contact with Nulgaths suit and caused little damage to the shoulder plate. Looking at his armor Nulgath then grinned in his mask and extended his hand releasing a Force push aimed at the Acolytes legs.

[Garza]

I smiled.

Watching the three Sith Acolytes in their sparring match. Hopefully they had turned down the dial on the sabers to prevent arms being cut off. Seeing that, I did as such with my double bladed lightsaber. Standing in the back of the room, the red glistaweb cloak was wrapped around my right shoulder, hiding the saber in my hand.

Walking out, my armored boots clanged as the sabers clashed. Watching from the side was a third white zabrak. Albino? possibly. I didn't know alot about the horned men with enough tattoos to fill a parlor. Regardless I walked over and watched the two now in the light. Noticing that the almost green looking partner was using Shi-Cho, the same lightsaber form I was first taught in.

I chuckled as the two started. Just watching and observing. Clearly seeing wrong and correct step formations as well as tactics. Soon they would learn..... soon.

Another dark prescence, but something's off. Without moving or saying anything, Lars locks his sensory onto the strange being, as it trailed the corridor.The young Zabrak looks to the humanoid man as he ventured into the corridor.

His crimson eyes scale him head to toe. A lord? A darth? No. Something is different. "Good day to you...Sir.." Groaned the Dathomir as he bowed in respect. "They are intriguing fighters...Are they not...?"

[Garza]

The "Albino" as I decided his nickname was, came over to me and started a conversation. He looked young. Probably younger than me. Really while I looked not a day over twenty, I was in my mid thirties. I looked him over as he called me a Sir. My face, now void of emotion, looked him up as he did the same to me.

Looking back to the two fighting, I nodded my head, "Yes. However, they still have much to learn." Taking a good grip, I extended my left hand out to the man. "Names Imura. Yours?"

[Larkoon Darkmat'r]

Lars remained quiet for a second in a small pause, as the man extends his hand. What did this mean to the young zabrak? Usually it meant being thrown all over the place. That's what his training taught him after all. Instead, he takes a single step back, his distrustful nature showing on his face. Being a child of combat, Lars was never taught matters properly, so he doesn't know about handshakes.

"I am Larkoon..."

[Garza]

I looked at him quizzically as he backed up. Speaking his name of Larkoon. Nodding my head. I turned my attention back over to the two fighting. While still keeping my mind on Larkoon. "Afraid of a hand are we?" I shook my head in almost a tisk. He needs to learn that not accepting a hand is worse than taking one.

"If I really wanted to force you to fly around and end up on the floor, I would have done it a long time ago." I kept my face turned away from him. Not really caring if he was listening to me or not. "Learn to react to situations Larkoon. Maybe then you will survive."

[Larkoon Darkmat'r]

"Forgive me...Sir...But the last time someone said that, I lost the ability for an instant to tell which was up and down..." The young man turns to the sparing session and continues to watch. "I was taught to view things in different perspective, such as a trusting gesture could be used to lower my defenses...."

Larkoon softly grins.

"My Father taught me that...."

[Salvor Arnex]

Salvor’s saber glanced off [member="Nulgath Zardai"] ‘s armor in a shower of sparks, the armor appearing to be no worse for the wear. The man’s reaction was one of utter indifference, he simply glanced Salvor with out concern and extending his hand and sending a blast of force energy at Salvor’s legs.

The attack took Salvor’s feet out from underneath him throwing him face first towards the ground. The dark side was flowing through Salvor now, burning his muscles and enhancing his reflexes. As he hit the ground Salvor threw his arms out and threw himself into a roll towards his sparring partner’s right while taking a swipe at the man’s right knee with his saber.

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Nulgath nodded as [member="Salvor Arnex"] started his rol, Impressive. Nulgath put his right knee back and twisted his wrist blocking attack with his sword and quickly brought his blade lower [member="Salvor Arnex"] saber hilt to get proper leverage. If sucessful Nulgath would use his Augmented Cybernetic strength and rake [member="Salvor Arnex"] up toward the ceiling and give a kick to [member="Salvor Arnex"] Sterum.



Nulgath was taking it slow and was not embracing the darkside yet only relishing in battle and testing [member="Salvor Arnex"] blade work and footwork, so far the other Zabrak Acolyte was doing well.

[Salvor Arnex]

Salvor could not deny the man’s strength, it seem without effort that he was pulled to his feet taking a stiff kick to the chest for his trouble. He tried to use the force to dull the blow but his skill was only so much and much of the power behind the kick was behind the blow. Salvor was sent a few steps back, his eyes watering from pain and his breathing labored due to what he could only assume was a cracked rib or two.

Pain was the price we pay. Salvor twirled his saber with a flourish, called upon the pain he felt to strengthen his connection to the dark side, it fueled his movement, making him a torrent of fury as he continued his attack, he jabbed at the opponent’s left shoulder, cross cut at his waist going from left to right, followed that strike with a diagonal cut that went from the man’s right hip up toward his left shoulder. Salvor was hoping to overwhelm his opponent with strikes, he could tell his form was slipping, sloppier than it had been previously but it was a risk he was willing to take to finally gain the upper hand.

[member="Nulgath Zardai"]

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Nulgath as surprised at the flourish of strikes, his Suit limited his movement and Nulgath was able to dodge the the shoulder lunge but the waist strike cut into the Suit making a slight cut. Though not much was to be seen besides a light saber wounds and a strike in Nulgaths armor, The Zabrak dashed dodging the other blow to the waist. It was time to fight serious now. Nulgath expected a follow up strike with his backing up and only had time to get in a Djem So stance. Nulgath was ready to attack but was on the defensive too. His next attack depended on [member="Salvor Arnex"].

 

[Elaine Thul]

Elaine of house Thul arrived in sparring room, she was unsure what to do. She had only just finished, not being eaten by glitter, [member="Darth Praelior"] pet. That thing was not house trained, though she wanted to go home. She also wanted to see what the other acolytes where doing.

She sat down in corner with her double ended lightsaber, and watched the others fight. She have to bleed for these people yet to secure her lands and tittle.

 

[Salvor Arnex]

Salvor continued to press, he twirled his saber above his own head, theatrics and distraction could be very useful in a fight. He twirled the saber over his head before taking a swipe at the ground near [member="Nulgath Zardai"] ‘s feet sending up a shower of sparks in another attempt to disrupt the enemy’s focus. As the sparks came up Salvor lunged a slightly off balance stab at the opponent’s belly

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Nulgath was being pushed something he did not like all too much, Nulgath was getting upset. Summoning his Rage Nulgath gave a strong backhand strike to knock [member="Salvor Arnex"] lightsaber away and attempted to kick [member="Salvor Arnex"] in the Groin to incap him or just to piss him off more. It was a dirty move yes but with Nulgaths cybernetic legs it would karking hurt if it all went through.
