Protectors Blade

Everybody was butt kick fighting.

Those moves were fast as lightning. In fact, it was a little bit frightening, but they did it with Jedi timing.

The young Nautolan was waist deep in a sea of bodies. A foot lashed out, dropping a zombie as the straight leg kick connected under the chin. The white blade followed soon after, quartering the undead as it passed through the air in an X-like sweep.

The boy had swelling around one eye, suggestive of a black eye that would form later, and a thin trail of blood running from his nose down to his chin from where he'd taken an elbow to the face. But he was still on his feet. That's all that mattered.

Making his way over to where the black, spiky-haired brah was standing at the cave entrance, the Nautolan turned so that his back was to the other kid's back so that he could watch the rear as they prepared to move inside of the cave.

Krass moved with them and getting into the mines now was going to be a piece of cake as she moved to stand back to backs with them throwing the hammer to make another shockwave and send them back. She wasn't taking chances directing it to work and smash into the corpses on the groun to make sure that things were on the up and up. That the dead would hopefully stay dead as it were normal and natural... she was really just doing them a favor before moving back towards the mines. "Alright lets get in and watch your corners, we don't want to get lost in the dark with them." She had the glow rod they could use and well those didn't run out using a proper design to recycle the energy and not waste it so they could keep going through for a long time and her helmet had an oxygen recycling system built into it.

The young Padawan looked towards his comrades as he held his saber above his head to give him a more defensive stance, aswell as providing light. He noticed the Nautolan seemed to have taken some beating, "You ok?".

As the boy awaited for an answer, he started moving again, into the darkness of the cave, that was somewhat visible. He had no idea what the plan was going to be from here on out, or what even were they supposed to do, but he kept on until a biforcation to which, he would before suggesting anything, see of what his mates had in mind.

"You ok?"

The Nautolan gave a nod. "Yeah, brah."

Bringing the glowing white blade up, the teen shut down his lightsaber but didn't return it to his belt. Being that they often operated at ocean depths were light from the surface was virtually non-existent, Nautolans had excellent low light vision. Not to the caliber of the Quarren, who lived at abyssal depths, but decent in most respects. Shutting out the light of the lightsaber would help preserve that trait, particularly as the lightsabers of his companions cast plenty of light against the sides of the cave.

"I'm good."

Krass stayed with them providing some fo the attention to it so she could make sure that Zak was alright but he said he was fine. "Alright we are in here, we should be able to handle it in here. Be careful when touching the diamonds, it is a very painful sensation and if it gets into a cut you could get blood poisoning." She didn't want to have to try and have them try to hold the blood diamonds themselves and get a small cut... would not be cool and the medical attention for curing blood poison was a detox from master Cathbodua who wasn't the kindest when it came to her training methods or suffering problems like this. "We should be looking for repulsor sleds we can load some of the rocks on."

 

[Undin Jaii Kryze]

"Very well.", said the young boy to both of them. He noticed the Nautolan had called him brah. What even was a brah? He didn't even want to ask, if may be something as dar'mandaa, which he had been, unfortunately, called many many times.

Undin separated a bit from the group as he went to go and look for some repulsor sleds, that might have been left around. As he did, he heard some callings "Come hereeee.... Come hereee..", coming from one of the paths in the cave. It was obvious that it might have been a trap, but he was interested, and as he looked up and around he said, "Guys, did you hea-- Guys? Guys?". The boy had noticed that he had lost sight of his friends and was now lost in the cave, with one path to follow.

[Micah tol Powl]

Don't handle the blood diamonds.

Got it.

"We should be looking for repulsor sleds we can load some of the rocks on."

The comment caused the Nautolan to look around. At first, it was to look for something that would be useful in addressing the problem of how to haul the gemstones. But then it began to dawn on the green-skinned boy that there was only two of them.

He was pretty certain they'd come in with three people.

"Where's the black haired brah?"

That could be a problem.

Looking around while she was moving with the hammer and prepared to work on most of the things there while she was going through the tunnels. Sticking with Zak and Undin... Undin... She looked around when Zak mentioned that he was gone and threw the hammer again into the face of another sith as he screamed before his body flipped and when she pulled the hammer back it was lower and struck his flipping body for a c.c.c..c.c.c..ccombo breaker... Oh yeah she was getting better with her hammer and spoke. "I have no idea, I though he was right behind us and now... UNDIN... when I find you I am going to put a bell on you so you can't sneak away from us."

 

[Undin Jaii Kryze]

The boy, now decided, it was best, for some reason, to follow ahead the path, and see where it went.

But before following the voices, he made a pretty big mark on the wall, with his lightsaber, saying, "I went this way ---> Signed: Undin"
With corner checking, and reluctancy, he advanced inside the cave. The voices were getting louder and louder by each step, while the light faded away.

As he continued, he saw a light. He rushed towards the light, that dissapeared, leading him into a wall. Strangely, the wall was different from the rest of the cave. It had a darker tone, and it didn't seem natural.
Undin, pulled his towards it. The light provided by the plasma of the weapon, brought up a message. It was hardly readable, but what Undin got out of it, was. "Enter. Enter, if you can. Enter, only if you are in peace and serenity with yourself.".

The Nautolan was backtracking through the cave.

He almost missed it, but his vision caught the edge of part of Undin's writing. Igniting his lightsaber, the teen held the white blade low, parallel to the ground, as he bounced the light off the walls of the cave to shed some illumination on the situation.

It seemed that the black haired kid had gone that way.

Shutting down his lightsaber again, the boy turned and called over to the short chick. "This way."

He should probably learn some names at some point.

Krass was moving and looking at Zak as she stopped grabbing one of the sleds for themselves. It was empty but they could use it in the mines for what they needed and wanted when she gave some new information. "Alright lets go and find him." THey might be able to get some good things and hopefully there wasn't some sith cult ripping hearts out down here in the mines with a mine cart chase scene... cause that would be weird." She was ready to work with things holding the hammer on the small strap and then watching it while she was there prepared to defend the cart of blood diamonds from the pursuing sith. "Undin... we are coming for you."

 

[Undin Jaii Kryze]

"Undin... we are coming for you". Well, that was very ominous, but the Padawan recognized the voice coming from the start of the tunnel. He didn't know very well the woman, but he hoped that was the way she normally spoke.

He yelled "Come quickly.", without turning his head from the wall. Something was definitely behind it. The young boy, awaited for them to arrive before trying to open it. Who knew what was behind it? Or if they could even be able to get past. He hoped so, or the curiosity would kill him.

[member="Krass Wyms"] [member="Zak Dymo"]

 

[Micah tol Powl]

"Come quickly."

He didn't have ears, and his head-tails were adapted for picking up directional cues in an aquatic medium.

So hearing the black haired kid's voice echo through the inside of a cave was... doing absolutely nothing to help Zak figure out in which direction he should be running. Now, in this circumstance, Zak could just take off running. Statistically, there had to be some chance he'd be running the right way. But, he could also be running the wrong way. Which wasn't going to be helpful to anyone.

So, instead, Zak looked at the short chick. "Did... that come from that direction?" the Nautolan asked, pointing straight ahead.

Krass was looking at the man and she gave a nod of her head before she was heading off and the mine was large and thick with sithspawn undead that were dangerous. She was looking at Zak and going through the mines she couldn't keep attacking while she moved off with it. She had materials in her pack and her forging hammer that she is able to use. The works she needed time. "I don't know but if you can buy me some time I can put together something that is strong and will help us handle the dangerous things within here." She was off and moving as trying to find Undin brought her around to... nothing just a room they were processing rhe stone into edges for their swords. Force blades could be dangerous and she was moving over to the heavier doors with a beacon. "Alright I have a plan, something we can use to get rid of these things. It won't be easy but if you can find Undin I can get use the materials we need to make something that will prevent the more dangerous things from being left around."

Krass was looking at Zak with a small look while she produced the materials and there was the parts of the blade she could use in the forge. She just needed to get them together and then bind them into what the blade would be in the synth msh and materials. It would be heavy in the end compared to what it could be but that was the force enhancement as she started to get to work. The blade being twice her sie and Krass was focusing the other materials they had. The syntheti blood to bind it when she was starting to channel the force and give Zak the time he needed to go and find Undin. They could do that and get out of here before she started working with it, started shaping the mesh with the metal and the refined blood diamond was being added to it. That mixture to create a powerful blade that would literally be able to burn darksiders with the power of the lightside of the force.

Krass was sticking with it to develop for herself, one blade here that they could use as the prototype and compared to the hammer she was wielding this would be sure to handle the dangerous parts of it. She was prepared for the danger and the gloves helped witht he pain that would come from handling the diamonds themselves. As the hammer struck it and she could hear the creatures at the doors as well as the handlers it was a matter of if she would have the blade ready to use and aged enough with the heat by the time they broke in. Zak had been given the chance to run off and rescue Undin, she was given the chance to come up with a small solution and this was the best thing that could come from it as the hopeful quartermaster held the blade up and spoke. "Always wanted to do this.....I HAVE THE POWER!!!!!!"

Oh yeah she was going to be so cool while assembling it and the silver blade was there pretty and gleaming with the force energies that she could channel into it with a nod of her head. "Alright, now to save the two fo them and cleave through some darksiders with the power of the light."

 

[Undin Jaii Kryze]

Undin waited...and waited... "Did they forget about me?", he asked himself in a low tone.

Anyway, the young boy had awaited enough, it was time to break and see what was behind the wall. With an upping of his lightsaber, he struck the wall, and curiously enough, it did nothing but a scratch.
He then, taking the hilt back with the blade pointed towards the wall, in a stabbing motion, stabbed the wall.

As more time, he had the saber connected to the wall, more it seemed like the temperature of the weapon dropped, making him cold. The Padawan took his weapon back, to see what had happened to the wall. Again, nothing but burn marks.

Could the wall have small amount of Cortosis in its construction, not enough to turn off a lightsaber, but weakening it, making it lose power overtime? Maybe, the only way to open the room, was with the Force, but Undin was too cold to try anything like that.

So, out of one of his pockets, he got a Sasori Heater, to which he selected a 20ºC, and plonked it on the floor. A few seconds, and he was feeling warmer, just not enough to do anything.

The short girl seemed to want some alone time.

The Nautolan continued on down through the cave, only to find the black haired kid plunked down in front of a Sasori space heater. Kid needed to get a Sasori circlet. It was stylish, mad swag cred, and worked in a variety of environments.

"Brah, use the Force, brah," the teen said. Being aquatic, Tapas was an ability that came naturally. As Nautolans had to adapt to temperatures at depth, the ability to use the Force to provide warmth or cooling emerged as a latent skill that most aquatic younglings were not even conscious of doing.

Bringing his hands together, the Nautolan focused a little of his energy, before extending a hand out toward Undin. The energy he offered would provide warmth against the cold.

Krass was moving as she finished it up and held the sword ready to work on things, she was prepared for it though while running and wiht the massive blade going after them as she reached into the force to track and follow. No better way and important task the to be able to find other as she slashed through a group that were coming at her and she was pushing the repulsor sled with a nod of her head prepared to find them and get it. "You two hurry up." Krass stopped and swung the sword cleaving into several as she asaw Undin with a look on her face. "Come on short stack lets go and get the sled. Lets go and find the brah for what we were wanting to do."

 

[Undin Jaii Kryze]

The young boy turned his head, as he heard one of his mission buddies speak, happily, it was the Nautolan, saying for him to use the Force. Did he know about the door?

Anyway, he decided to ask, "How do you know about the door? Or are you reffering to something else?". Then he stuck his hand out to Undin. If he was talking about the door, why not try?

The teen grabbed his hand, and then without realizing it, he got warmer, enough to be able to use the Force correctly again. Still holding on, he stuck his hand up towards the door, and tried to push it upwards.
With a great huge of struggle, the door was lifted from the floor, exactly 3 centimeters, before falling to the floor again, leaving a huge echo troughout the caves.

Before he had time to complain, the tiny woman arrived, trying to get them to follow her. "But the door? There's something behind there, and it might be something important.".

[member="Krass Wyms"] [member="Zak Dymo"]

 

[Micah tol Powl]

Door?

Like, the wall of the cave? Man, what kind of tripped out nerf herders was he riding with anyway?

Oh well. Didn't get much more Jedi than this chit. "Here, try that again, only together this time," the Nautolan offered.

Reaching out with the Force, Zak tried to duplicate what Undin had done just a moment earlier, only this time the goal to combine his Force power with Undin's to provide some more lift for the door.

There might be something behind there? Hmmm Krass was looking at them when she arrived and spoke. "Well then lets get behind there and go for it." She was ready and had the blade prepared to strike and smack them all around as she was going in raw with the massive blade in one hand and her hammer in the other. She was moving and prepared to smash the door down while she was moving with the others and they could load anything there into the bag with the blood diamonds for use in later blades. Krass saw what Zak was doing and she sped towards it smashing into the door with the hammer as the explosive sonic shockwave came off and she kicked at the door to bash it down ready to duel if they needed to.
