Dominion [RNR] The Midas Touch || Dominion of New Cov

His opponent's counter to Dagos' Force attack was pretty hot chit. Not only did the pilot not pull a muscle, but he also avoided going down entirely by shifting his feet with the momentum of the pull attack. That was fething livewire footwork and it made Dagos heart sing. Footwork was everything! Dude, knew that chit too. It was obvious. The counter was a work of art. Something that came from three sources: The Force, instinct, or experience, but the way Fly Guy was forcing pressure while keeping away from Dagos power was more than preternatural ability, foresight, or muscle memory. It was beautiful.

The return volley of strikes was a choice.

Footwork was everything. Dagos went back. Not straight back, Dagos would never go straight back, chit was lazy and it meant you didn't think. Dagos took sharp measured steps angled off to his left trying to beat his opponent to where he was trying to go and keep him in range of something heavy from Dag's right side.

Fly Guy was t having that chit though and snapped a jab Dagos' way.

Head movement wasn't everything, but it wasn't nothin'. Dagos kept his head off center while Fly Guy poked in a jab trying to establish distance.

What the frell?

Was the first thought come to Dag's mind as a crackle of electricity danced across Fly Guy's knuckles, tickling Dagos' face. That chit was crazy.

Call it The Force, instinct, or experience but when Dag's opponent set his feet to fire something more purposeful than that jab, Dagos stopped his dancing footwork and launched a counter right.

Dag had expected to land his strike first, his hands was fast boy, but Seth was good, too good. Seth was able to sneak an elbow up into Dagos' midsection which the young Korunai took with a grunt and a grimace yet no other sign of discomfort which he was sure would come later.

They were too close together. Dagos worked better on the outside, moving, testing, wearing out his opponents and leaving them frustrated and touched up. Seth had turn this into close quarters though. Wasn't Dag's strong suit but he knew how to get down.

Dagos reached out with his left looking grab the back of Seth's neck, if you control the head you control the fight, and swung a sharp downward elbow of his own at Seth's head. It was the kind of strike that if landed in the right area wouldn't just discourage a sensible man from getting so close again but could very well bust a mutha sucka open with a cut above the eye.

Dagos would try to keep hold of Seth's head and follow up the elbow with a knee to the body.

Chit hadn’t stayed pretty for long. This fight was getting gnarly early and Dagos was here for it.

“Well,”
“this has gotten a bit dull, hasn’t it?”

The Jedi Padawan chuckled lightly as he gave the smallest of nods. "I suppose it has." Aiden glanced to the chime that was heard indicating the new bid and he glanced over to it for a moment. As he glanced back he felt the hand on his shoulder briefly.

She then walked away, as the Jedi Padawan was left, surprisingly a small smile on his face.

"Take care of yourself Cerys....." Aiden whispered, she wouldn't be able to hear it, but it was enough for him. He knew how guarded she was, there were indeed stories and words that travelled through the halls of the sacntuary. He couldn't force it on her, she would accept what she could. Just like there for a while how he wasn't telling anyone about what he was going through. It took time, and if not, he wasn't sure what else could be done.

Aiden sat back in his chair as he continued to watch the auction proceed and continue, seeing who was up next to bid.

OBJECTIVE II - THE KNIGHTING

Seth felt the hit land—elbow tucked up and tight like a piston, right into Dagos’ middle—and got a grimace for his trouble.

But that was it.

No step back. No pause. Just a damn grin, probably, and a right hook already cocked and flying.

Seth caught the motion too late to dodge clean. He turned with it instead—chin tucked, shoulder raised—and still felt the crack of knuckles clipping his temple. Stars popped at the edge of his vision. His knee nearly gave, but momentum did what instinct couldn’t: carried him forward.

He didn’t get a breath before fingers found the back of his neck.

Shit.

Dagos wasn’t just strong—he was mean with it. The elbow came down like a falling hammer, and Seth’s world snapped. It didn’t land flush, thank the stars, but it was close enough to tear a stinging line across his brow. He felt warmth spill instantly. Blood.

Then came the knee.

It caught him in the side, hard enough to steal air. A wet grunt punched out of Seth’s chest—but the body kept moving. Because it had to. Because Nar Shaddaa didn’t teach breaks. It taught counters.

So Seth bit down and swung his own damn head forward, aiming a wild-but-purposeful headbutt toward Dagos’ nose—not elegant, but desperate enough to break rhythm. And if it connected? All the better.

He surged forward again, not retreating, not resetting—smothering. One arm swung low to swat at Dagos’ grasping hand, trying to peel it from his neck, while his other came up with a jab-jab-hook combo—not clean boxing form, but dirty, tight punches thrown from the hip. The static from earlier crackled faintly again across his knuckles.

Not Force power. Just pain.

Lysander von Ascania Lysander von Ascania Cassian Abrantes Cassian Abrantes

Sibylla's attention might have been fixed on the rising bids for the J-type, but it was difficult not to be distracted by the two men nearby; one perpetually three seconds from bantering with his wit, the other forever three seconds from lecturing her about her safety.

Her lips curved into a smile just shy of impish as Lysander leaned in with his mock-serious murmur.

"Distracting you?" she repeated airily, not glancing away from the datapad as she submitted another bid, "I wouldn't dare. Though if I were, I imagine you'd only be grateful. Unless, of course, you're susceptible to a particular type of distraction?" She looked up then, eyes glinting, the implication featherlight but unmistakable.

However, Lysander's noble insistence that he'd kept her safe, after the Mandalorian raid, the escape, the general chaos, earned a delicately arched brow.

"Goodness, such heroics. One might think you'd been thrust into the jaws of battle daily for my sake rather than merely enduring the mild inconvenience of muddy boots and my rather insistent schedule." her tone airy with amusement and just a touch too knowing.

She turned to Lysander fully then, a playful glint in her eyes, "Still, I suppose I ought to provide notable tribute in gratitude -- for your continued vigilance and enduring spirit. Not everyone can survive both a Mandalorian ambush and a wardrobe malfunction."

The laughter danced in her tone, but her eyes were already watching him again, keen and curious. He'd said something about Lady Velvet with the sort of embarrassed gravity that made her tilt her head slightly.

Oh, now this was new.

A Jedi confessing to reading pulpy romance novels?

She leaned a fraction closer, crossing her arm over her chest as if it were all terribly academic.

"So beneath all that restraint, Lysander von Ascania does have a heart for longing gazes and confessions by candlelight? I never would have guessed. I was certain your favorite bedtime reading was some treatise on the ethics of saber stances."

Her grin threatened to become genuine.

But before she could press further, Cassian struck like only an older brother could. With a single raised brow and a casual, maddening statement:

Is she the one that writes those over the top romance novels? There's a few I've seen you read when you think no one is watching?"

Sibylla didn't flinch. She was a junior legislator from Naboo. She faced public hearings, gala fundraisers, and the occasional assassination attempt with her composure intact. She would not allow one comment from her insufferable brother to rattle her -- though the slight pink that brushed across her cheeks might've said otherwise.

"I thank you, dear brother, for proving once again that privacy is entirely dead in our household," she replied primly. "Truly, you've missed your calling. You should be directing surveillance droids with Senator Aurelian Veruna Aurelian Veruna , not the Royal Naboo Security teams." Sibylla added with a distinct quip, referencing the scion of House Veruna, a name that elicited a medley of thoughts. An image of the Senator brought with it a parting muse on how the man smiled liek a man with secrets -- every motion every word too precise, too rehearsed.

The man was certainly playing a longer game for sure.

Nonethe less, Sibylla's attention returned back to the pair as her brow lifted further.

"And while we're on the topic of my reading habits, can we discuss how I've been trailed by one of your guards for three days? I promise you, if I need someone to hover behind me while I shop for fabric swatches, I will hire one. Or take Lysander with me." She added in mild amusement, turning to press a final bid for fifteen thousand with all the imperious flourish of a noblewoman, then looked back toward Lysander as if nothing at all had just happened.

"After all, you protected me so well from additional threats since the battle at Theed Palace…and we still have to brighten your aesthetic. " she said sweetly, fingers poised over the bidding interface. She deliberately didn't mention Dee'ja peak and their brush with death more than a few times therein, for if Cassian realized what she had done, she would never heard the end of it.

Phylis sighed. "It was a terrible tragedy. I am, hmm, not a politics person much. Hmmph, I find it mostly is a nest of vipers. I do however feel like I should have seen what was going on more. When I did though I tried to help people. A friend of mine, I think you know Elpsis…or Alpsal as she is called now by the Qadiri, tried to steer Firemane from their path. Instead, they treated the planet as their possession and enslaved people. War was the result. Hmm, their defeat was necessary."



She shook herself from that memory and looked back at Makai. "Hmm, there's two items I am hoping for. A stone inscribed with mystical signs. Hmmph, you know I love a good mystical stone," she chuckled at that self-deprecatingly. "And a relic of one of the former Queens of Naboo. There has been, hmm, a lot of them in the last couple of decades."



"I wouldn't call myself part of the Order of Shiraya. I'm more, hmm, independent. Jedi Orders have come and gone, but this one is more…reasonable than some." Some groups of Jedi had been so pacifist or so excessively militant that she barely considered them to be Jedi.



"Tree of eternal flame seems exciting!" Phylis added. "What does it do? Hopefully it's a metaphor or it might be a bit, hmm, tricky to transport."



Looking to Phillip, she nodded understandingly. "Yes, a lot of the things we do are considered strange by others. And honestly, the same in reverse." Ordinary people often confused Phylis, not because they couldn't use the Force, but because they had totally different priorities to her.



She reclaimed the crystal from Phillip. "Hmm, might I ask if you have a Master currently who is teaching you?"

The Jedi checked her bids. No change as yet.

Bids:
No change.

Dag felt the satisfying crash of knuckles on skull. He'd been hoping to chin cheek that mutha sucka and have this chit be done quick but that just wun't his mutha suckin luck today.

Dag didn't sell Seth's elbow but got damn, Dagos had to the most high almost bit right through his tongue trying to keep a straight face after eating that elbow almost in full.

Dagos' knee caught Fly Guy hard and for the absolute barest second Dag thought he was gonna go down that chit ain't last long. Fly Guy came roaring back and reminded Dagos exactly why he hated this close quarter grimey ugly bully style of fight. The only fething time he lost a fight to his older brother is when he mucked chit up like this knowing, back then anyway, that Dagos was too young and too slight to deal with it.

Dagos was older now and strong enough to hold his own but he still was no fan of this bantha chit. He wanted to stay on the outs and pop dude with jabs and kill him with footwork. You know? Pretty chit. Not this.

Fly Guy's head crashed hard into Dagos' face. a sick crack rang out in the courtyard as Dag's nose burst open, blood pouring from him now staining his shirt.

Dagos world went black and he slipped. As soon as his knee touched earth, Dagos shot straight back up to his feet on instinct alone. The body moved but there was no one at the controls.

Dagos had no real awareness of the jabs being sent his way. He was on autopilot and the only directive was to escape. He took Choppy, chitty steps backward, absently pawing at the air trying to block the jabs that thankfully didnt land. The hook did and Dagos was back to a knee but whether it was the actual shot or the snap of electricity that brought his senses back Dagos was hurt but awake.

He had no thought now but panic. He was gonna die if he didn't do something.

Dagos from a knee launched himself forward. He tried to slam a shoulder into Fly Guy's waist and hook his arms around the back of his knees to bring the fight to the ground.

Desperate fething times

OBJECTIVE II - THE KNIGHTING

The shoulder to the waist hit hard—and landed. Seth staggered. Dagos' weight and momentum did their work, driving them both down in a heap of tangled limbs and old bruises. The breath shot from Seth’s lungs in a huff, and for a half-second, all he could do was exist under pressure: forearm crushed against his ribs, leg pinned awkwardly beneath Dagos, face mashed into the duracrete.

He tasted iron again. Not just the sting at his temple—this was fresh. His lip had split somewhere in the chaos, probably on Dag’s shoulder or elbow. He spat red, but it didn’t clear the flavor.

Didn’t matter. He’d tasted worse.

He’d bled worse.

There was a moment, just before, when Seth had seen it—the dazed slack in Dagos’ eyes, the instinctual rise without presence behind it. That stumble to a knee, that swing that didn’t land, those steps taken like he was moving through fog. A second of nobody home. It should’ve made Seth back off. Hell, maybe a better man would’ve backed off.

But his hands remembered different streets.

The pressure to finish came easy, natural. Not the Force. Not strategy. Just instinct born from a Nar Shaddaa alley, where flinching got you left in one. So he kept swinging. Sloppy jabs. One lucky hook. Until Dag came barreling in like a blaster bolt.

Now they were down, and the fight had teeth again.

A punch caught Seth in the ribs. Another grazed the side of his head. He grunted, shoulder flexing against the concrete, vision swimming. His heartbeat roared in his ears like a war drum. Do something. Now.

He bucked his hips and twisted, grinding his elbow against the floor to make space—just enough space. Then he saw it: the opening.

His right arm coiled.

Every muscle from shoulder to knuckles straining with intent.

A blow, aimed clean for Dagos’ jaw, meant to ring his bell and end this ugly brawl with something decisive. Not elegant. Not Jedi. Just real.

But he stopped.

Not from weakness—from choice.

His fist hovered mid-air, trembling with restraint, the ghost of that strike still burning through his joints. He could hear the observers. The Order. The purpose of this all, breathing down his neck like a cold wind.

This wasn’t a back alley. This wasn’t survival. This was family.

Seth exhaled, long and low, blood thick in his mouth. Then tapped Dagos’ shoulder twice. A signal as old as fists themselves.

“I’m done,” he muttered, hoarse. “You good?”

Because yeah—he’d scrap for all of them. He’d shed blood. He’d earn his place beside them.

But he’d also know when to let go.​
