Round 1: Harley vs Alaki [ToA]

[Darth Ayra]

| [member="Harley"] | [member="Alaki"] |

The Tournament of Acolytes had begun. In front of the watching crowd of One Sith and the other Sith Acolytes, Harley and Alaki would begin their first duel. Darth Ayra stood centre to both of them as they stood centre stage. "The two of you will now fight one another. You will try to kill one another. Show us what you are capable of."

The Sith Lord left the arena. Silence ensued. No word was given to begin. But since when did you need to be told to kill someone? It was at the dawning of that question at Harley and Alaki knew that it was time to fight.

Harley nodded as her lightsaber was turned on, she been gathering the force inside her, since the they entered the arena for all to see. She needed to win this tournament, she needed to get noticed, she needed a master. If that meant kerb stomping this chiss woman, so be it. She then looked a chiss woman, it was time to unleash it, all the energy she had built up inside her. Then without a moments notices she leapt at her, she landed close enough to her, so she bring her lightsaber down on her. Her blow was coming down over her head, towards the chiss head. She was going to give no quarter, she was not going to even give the time to react, she was going bring her pain.

 

[Bubák]

So this crazy-looking woman was going to be her first opponent? Despite her usual cowardice, the Chiss did not feel particularly threatened as her glowing red orbs glanced over her opponent, observing the crazy hairstyle and apparel. The lack of fear might have originated from the fact [member="Harley"] did not look particularly intimidating, but who knows? Still, the teenager did not let her guard down; even the slightest mistake could easily result in her loss, which in turn meant proving her uselessness and being terminated. It was time to shine and finally prove to be ready to become a Sith Acolyte worthy of carrying the teachings of the Sith! The Dark Side radiated from the Acolyte, meaning she had prepared for the battle. Alaki smirked. She, too, had meditated before the tournament, drawing the power of the Dark Side into her body. If it came to their Force reserves, it appeared the two were evenly matched. What mattered more than the Force was their skill with a lightsaber though, as most Acolytes did not have particularly impressive arsenal of Dark Side powers and techniques. This certainly played in Alaki's favour; the aggressive Form V of lightsaber combat promised to grant her an advantage over those less focused on their blade.

Her hand reached for the silver cylinder on her waist, secured to Alaki's body by a belt. Petite fingers tightly clasped the lightsaber that displayed distinctive Jedi-like design and with a press of the ignition button and the characteristic sound of a lightsaber, the blue beam of plasma came to life. The free hand took hold of the weapon as well as the blue skinned girl raised the symbol of Jedi, making some spectators gasp in surprise while others laughed or remained silent, all ignored by the fallen Padawan. The cold coming from the metal hilt made her focus on the task at hand, destroying the Sith Acolyte opposite of her. Preparing herself, the Chiss assumed the stance of Form V, ready to launch herself at...

Too late! The Force-enhanced jump of Harley carried Alaki's opponent to the Chiss before she even had any chance to react. A good move, the Chiss had to admit, one followed by a powerful overhead blow that tended to cleave people in half vertically. Without any intention to become one of them, the Chiss rushed her own blade up in defence to meet Harley's attack. Simply by rotating the lightsaber to the right and raising her arms until she felt heard and felt as their blades kissed, blue meeting red, Alaki blocked the strike and locked their weapons. Of course, since the Sith Acolyte put much energy into her attack, the lightsaber of the Chiss almost got knocked out of the blue skinned girl's hands upon the hit. While she had managed to avoid being disarmed, and even kept her posture thanks to her feet being firmly planted on the ground, Alaki was still forced to slightly bend in the knees as the hit forced her down.

With their blades locked, there was little to do than to attempt to overpower the opponent. The muscles in her arms flexed in an attempt to push Harley's blade further up, unwilling to bend and let the crimson blade any closer to her head. The Chiss' eyes locked with the Sith Acolyte's gaze, silently challenging her... and in that very moment, Alaki suddenly did the same thing her opponent had done at the start; imbuing her legs with the Force and using the slightly crouched position in the only way possible, she jumped. Well, not really, but she used the energy of the jump to break the saber lock, immediately moving in for an attack of her own. Raising her hands further to have enough momentum, she then brought her blade down on Harley in a diagonal motion seeking to cut the clown from her left shoulder to right hip. If the Acolyte blocked it or dodged, Alaki repeated the same movement over and over, aggressive diagonal attacks aimed at Harley's upper torso, unwilling to give the jester any time to strike back, constantly keeping her occupied with brutal hacks!

As there blades met, blue and red sparks came of their sabers, and the odd one was green. Their gazes met, as she was trying to force her blade down on her opponent. It was like the chiss woman was challenging her, chiss then began strengthen herself. She pushed up with her legs, and knocked her back. The she went to strike at her, chiss was coming in with diagonal strikes. She blocked the strike, though her block was a little late. She could smell the hairs on her arm burn, and her skin became singed. She gave slight yelp of pain, as the chiss woman tried to hack at her again. As she did she drove herself forward, so the when she came back at her with her lightsaber would lock again. Then she planned to kick her, knees shin any open target. She kick would out at her, she repeat it as much as possible. This was not a friendly duel, if came down to it she would bite scratch, and pull chiss hair out in order to win.

 

[Bubák]

Hit, hit, hit! Alaki's lightsaber clashed with her opponent's weapon, blue beam of superheated plasma whizzing through the air with each slam she delivered. It appeared to be a functional tactic for the first few hits, one time almost knocking the lightsaber out of [member="Harley"]'s hands and making the woman cut herself. All these years of honing her body into a weapon paid off. The duel was almost over, a proof of her superiority, a clear evidence of a pathetic Dark Jedi's ability to dominate a foe that should have been much stronger! She would be treated like filth no longer! She would wear pompous clothes, eat hot meals, have her own room! All that stood between her and achieving her dream was a bunch of weaklings! Another diagonal hack, filled with excitement and anger alike, the need to win driving the Chiss teen forward!

But before she could continue, the crazy-looking Sith Acolyte pushed back, her sudden block proving to be more than strong enough to stop the Chiss' incoming blow. While Alaki had a perfect chance to take a dodge backwards, break the saber lock and give both of them some breathing room, she was unwilling to be the one to step back. No, not so close to the victory! The way of a warrior was her chosen path, to become one with her weapons and use brute strength in favour of Force powers. Gripping her lightsaber even tighter, she pushed her lightsaber closer to the Acolyte, muscles in her entire body working on overpowering the opponent, to push her back and win this round! Knowing she could do it, believing it to be the defining moment of the match, Alaki was so focused she had not even noticed the incoming kick.

Pushing their blades against each other this hard, neither of them could effectively kick, as they had to have their feet firmly planted on the ground to support the body. What Harley did was an incredibly risky move, yet one that paid off. At least one of the combatants would end up on the ground. If Harley's move had proven to be ineffective, she would have inevitably crumbled under the Chiss' sheer strength. Luckily for the Sith Acolyte, she caught the fallen Padawan by surprise, ruining her entire posture with a simple kick to the knee. Alaki's eyes went wide as she felt her right leg giving away as a result of the kick, shortly followed by the left leg unable to support the weight and fight against Harley's strength on its own.

The blue skinned girl went down, her uncoordinated fall carrying her down onto her right side. To avoid cutting herself in the fall, she raised her hands above her head, still holding the lightsaber as she hit the ground. It hurt alot, but she did not have time to lick her wounds as the Sith Acolyte had a perfect chance to easily cut her in half. Calling upon the Dark Side, Alaki massed the Force in her hands, still holding the lightsaber, and made a slashing motion towards the standing woman. Logically, she knew this position was terrible and that she had to get up, but first she had to buy herself more time. The slash she did was not an ordinary slash per se; Alaki's fingers suddenly let go of the lightsaber, hurling it at Harley as her hands opened in palms, releasing two simultaneous Force pushes, one from each hand, both aimed at the Acolyte's belly. Without waiting for the result, Alaki attempted to roll away from the woman and jump up, immediately throwing another Force push at her opponent as a distraction when her other hand called for the lightsaber she had tossed at the clown.

Harley kick hit her opponent in the knee, she went down like durasteel balloon. She then almost cut her down, the chiss managed to block it. As she powered down on her opponents lightsaber, and then chiss woman opened her hands. She then used the force to push her, as she began to fly off. She tried to use the force to grab her opponent's lightsaber, she flew back towards the edge of arena. Slammed into the ground, she managed to use brake fall technic. Though she felt the pain in pit of her stomach, she got up. Then looked at the chiss, did she still have lightsaber, or did she manage to disarm her...............

 

[Bubák]

The hilt was already in the air, flying towards [member="Harley"]'s outstretched hand when Alaki got up and sent her telekinetic attack towards the Sith Acolyte to distract her, preventing the woman from focusing her mind on the lightsaber. The telekinetic push hit the Acolyte and successfully stopped her from completely disarming the Chiss by grabbing her only weapon and thus defacto ending the duel by that. Without a lightsaber, Alaki stood no chance against anyone, her training making her a fairly competent lightsaber combatant and not so capable Force user when it came to advanced powers. The silver cylinder continued in its flight though, the momentum from Harley's Force pull still carrying it towards the crazy lady. Only when Alaki's own Force pull reached the hilt, the lightsaber finally stopped mid-air, closer to Harley than to Alaki... and simply started falling towards the ground while also moving back to its real owner, the fallen Padawan.

As such, a more direct use of telekinesis was needed than simple pushes and pulls; reaching out with her hands, her palms open, the teenage Chiss grabbed the lightsaber with her mind and made it fly straight to her prepared hands. At the same time, the blue skinned girl broke into a sprint, running towards the Sith Acolyte as well as to get hold of her weapon. Upon feeling the hilt's cold metal again as it touched her skin, her heart jumped in joy almost as if she had just won the match. Her body was complete again, ready to break the Sith Acolyte! Igniting the baby blue blade with a snap hiss, Alaki did her best to close the distance with her opponent, dropping into a defensive stance for now, standing with her legs apart and waiting for her moment to attack. The Way of the Krayt Dragon effectively combined the best of Makashi and Soresu and adressed the weaknesses of each.

Defense immediately followed by a counter-strike. Such was the way of the fifth form of lightsaber combat.

[member="Alaki"]

The chiss had recovered her lightsaber, and know the blue skinned red eyed woman was waiting for her. She stood in a defensive stance, obviously ready for counter attack. Then again fortune favours the bold, or so they say. She looked around for something to throw at her opponent, she saw the ground was full stones. She smiled as she started to run at her opponent, as she drew close. She reached out with the force and grabbed one, and hurled the rock at her head. Then launched herself at her, she hoped the rock would catch her opponent off guard. So hit lightsaber might hit over the head, and cut her down. She also planned to kick the chiss, woman if there blades locked again. Though this would be less of surprise to her this time, but you should always do what works.

 

[Bubák]

Alaki gritted her teeth, standing firmly, prepared for the attack to come. Both eyes studied the movements of her opponent and it was not hard to notice [member="Harley"]'s glance moving towards the small rocks on the ground. The Chiss Padawan noted the stones before focusing her gaze back on her opponent. One could not know for sure if the Sith Acolyte simply wanted to distract her by looking at objects that could be used as projectiles, but the crazy lady had no intention to use, or if she actually wanted to throw a rock or two. To be prepared for everything, the grip of the left hand on the lightsaber loosened, ready to counter the possible telekinetic attack. At first it appeared the precaution has been unnecessary, but as soon as the Acolyte reached out with one of her hands, as if gripping the rocks, it became obvious Harley truly intended to use those. As a response, the blue skinned teen's own hand let go of the lightsaber hilt and did what she could to telekinetically counter the attack. Obviously, since her opponent was the first to act, Alaki did not have enough time to completely stop the rock as the Acolyte charged at her. The Force push that came from her empty palm slowed the rock down enough to pose no real danger. Just as Alaki's left hand grasped the lightsaber again, the small rock hit her in the shoulder and fell down. The impact hurt and threatened to make the girl stumble, plus she would certainly have an ugly bruise as a result of the hit, but her footing remained firm and she had managed to maintain stability, ready to take on the Sith Acolyte.

Raising her blade in defence, this time Alaki chose not to get herself trapped in a saberlock. The lightsabers clashed once more, only this time Alaki pushed the blades to the right, away from the two combatants, and withdrew the weapon from the lock, immediately dropping on her knee and making a stabbing motion towards the Acolyte's right knee with the intention of piercing it and rendering her almost completely immobile, then drawing her lightsaber further to the right and attempting to devastate her opponent's left leg by cleaving it off in her thigh horizontally. If the Acolyte moved in for a counter-attack, Alaki would launch herself backwards to create some space between them.

As she traveled through the air, she saw the rock hit chiss woman. It landed in the shoulder, she thought to herself a little higher next time. She nearly fell again as the rock struck her, harley thought her footing is get worse. She then landed and struck down with her lightsaber, chiss woman managed to block again. She pushed harley blade to her left, as she did harley used the momentum to try and flip over her. As she did the woman tried to stab her, the blade was aimed at her knee. She had gone much higher than the chiss aimed, she had missed but heat the blade burnt the base of her foot. She was clear by seconded attack, she landed on one foot, and span round as chiss tried stepped back. Her blade was outstretched, she was wildly fling her blade towards where chiss body should be....

 

[Bubák]

The unexpected jump meant the strike intended to stab the Sith Acolyte through the knee and cripple her ended up hitting only the bottom of the opponent's boot. While still a hit, one that would also undoubtedly give [member="Harley"] a disadvantage since burns tended to be rather painful, Alaki found herself disappointed. She wanted to completely cripple the clown, not just burn her foot! Her chosen form was about dominating her opponents, yet so far only proved her own incompetence to use it properly. This frustrated the Chiss greatly, as she had believed to have prepared enough for the fight, only to find herself unable to kill the very first opponent! Terrible, disastrous! This fact elicited a hiss from her mouth as she gritted her teeth and watched her opponent fly over, soon seeing nothing but an empty space where the Sith Acolyte used to be and positively feeling the jester above in the air. Alaki found herself in a terrible situation; given her crouched position, she could not effectively turn around in time to cut the wounded Sith Acolyte down while she still soared through the air. Fear started to resurface and she found herself worried.

Abrupty raising from the ground, tightly holding the blade, she spun around as she rotated on the balls of her feet, her jet black hair wildly ruffled by the air, hands moving from left to right along with the body and continuing even as she stopped spinning. Blue plasma blade cut through the air where Alaki had expected the jester to be after her landing, only to spot the opponent several metres away, throwing her lightsaber at her, which aimed in the place where the Chiss' crouched body used to be. She did not have enough time to block this. Soon, Alaki's nostrils caught the smell of burned flesh and cloth as the blade made its way between her legs, grazing the inner side of her left thigh. The red eyes of the Chiss stared at it in disbelief, unable to comprehend what just happened, Alaki was too much in shock to feel the pain yet. Her flesh and skin just vanished from the thigh, and while the crimson blade did not reach the bone, it would severely impact her mobility. One second later, Alaki finally felt the intense burning pain, which brought tears to her eyes and made her scream in both pain and the realization of what happened. This had to be her end, she didn't want to die, why couldn't she have just killed the cursed Acolyte, she would die like an animal with dozens if not hundreds of Sith watching it,... Kriff the Sith Acolyte!!!!!!!!! Alaki wanted to rip her into pieces with her bare hands, tear her intestines out, watch her die...

The incredible hate, pain and fear fed her connection to the Dark Side and awakened something she rarely dared to use; Force rage. The sudden burst of strength and ferocity that filled her made her completely forget about the pain. Her body became a conductor to the Dark Side, the intense rage literally fueled her and turned her into a living weapon.

Turning her gaze towards the now unarmed Sith Acolyte, the Chiss raised her blade high above her head and rushed at incredible speed increased by the Force to meet the one who had almost severed her leg. Ironically, the sprint broke into an uncoordinated stumble due to the injury, which sent Alaky flying towards the woman, but no matter; she was more than close enough to swing downwards, her blade a blue blur that aimed to split Harley in two. Nothing could match Alaki's sudden outburst of speed and strength now.

Nothing.

Haley put other foot down it hurt a little, then her blade made contact with the chiss. It had cut in between her legs, she smiled this was it. She extended her arm, to beckon her lightsaber back to her. She was going to finish this, as she did the chiss stood up. Something had happened to her, she was full rage and anger. She charged at her like rancor during breeding season, it was not pleasant thing to see. Her blade would not get to her in time, she had move fast or she die at this womans hands.

She ran towards the blue freak, it hurt as she did but she no choice but grin and bear it. She slid as she got close to her, she was going to try and catch her hands. Then kick her in the stomach, and flip her over on to her back. It was risky, but there was no other choice. Timing would be everything, if this worked it would no longer be lightsaber duel. It would be punching match, scratching and biting, as well as odd kick.

 

[Bubák]

So she wanted to run towards her death and greet it with a grin on her face? It hardly mattered to Alaki; the crazy looking Acolyte would die either way. Nothing in the galaxy could stop it from happening, the Dark Side and Alaki became one. Hate and pain made her so much stronger! The Chiss' saw what her opponent attempted to do, but paid it no attention, smirking as her increased reaction time let her see the Acolyte raising her hands in an attempt to either grab the lightsaber or stop the devastating hack. Nothing mattered! Physically, Alaki was the superior Sith due to her focus on lightsaber combat and practicing the most physically demanding form of all, her strength only multiplied by the effects of Force rage. This was the end for the Sith Acolyte, but a new beginning for the Dark Jedi Padawan, who would replace the dead woman, become a Sith Acolyte! The death announcing whizz that soared through the air stopped and the baby blue blur vanished when the lightsaber in Alaki's hands stopped moving due to the Sith Acolyte grabbing her hands... [member="Harley"]'s quick reaction stopped her from becoming two, for how long though?

There was no way of stopping her. Slowly, despite the protest of her opponent's hands and arms, Alaki started to push the blade closer to the Acolyte's head. Sooner than later, the blue plasma would burn through the woman's blonde hair, perhaps even cut off one of her ponytails... and then the head itself. The vision of the dead Acolyte filled Alaki's mind, enough for her to not notice the incoming kick. This time, it wouldnot be enough to take Alaki down, given Harley either had to stand on or kick with the wounded foot, making the kick not as strong as she would have probably liked. It did not help Alaki's body was all muscle, therefore threatening to knock Harley over just as much as Alaki. The blue skinned girl remained standing though, her rage still giving her power. It was when the second kick came that the teenager used the opportunity and the fact her opponent stood on one leg and kicked out with her left leg, the increased that came with Force rage making the kicks even despite Harley being the first one to raise her leg. Alaki's foot went for the clown's right knee.

Whatever followed, Harley's kick sent Alaki stumbling backwards. She did not quite fall down, but before she regained her footing, there was a considerable space between the two of them. As she stood still, she offered Harley an innocent smile and her left hand let go of the lightsaber she held. That hand remained hanging next to the girl's body, yet it was not limp. There was something under it. Another cylinder, one that lied right next to Alaki's left foot. One telekinetic pull and it would be in Alaki's hand...

[member="Harley"]

 

[Hailey Sosis]

[member="Alaki"]

After kicking her she finally stumbled back, during this her hair got singed. She was beginning to really hurt, all over. She then saw something, the chiss was unarmed. She focused herself, and then pushed one her arms straight out, towards chiss. she was concentrating on pushing her. She was also going to grab her lightsaber back at same time, using force pull. She had to work this out, she need to concentrate Then she began, jumped up and sent push towards the chiss. She then lept towards where she hoped she made land, and sent force pull towards her lightsaber. If this worked she would land catch her lightsaber, and strike down and this chiss. She was good opponent, it would be shame for to die here. She only needed to beat her, she would aim to cut into the arm if she could, to incapacitate her she could recover from that. Hey you never know they may become friends later.

 

[Bubák]

[member="Harley"]'s lightsaber on the floor started to move, eager to jump into Alaki's hand. The girl's victorious grin soon changed to a frown as a wave of invisible energy pushed her backwards, away from the lightsaber. This time, she would have fallen were it not for the wall that made the arena. As her back hit the wall with a thug, sending more pain through her body, Alaki threw a hateful glance towards her opponent before her hand reached out, trying to telekinetically retrieve the lightsaber lying in the dirt again. She would have made it if not for Force rage, which quickly drained her energy. Just a Padawan, she did not have the vast reserves like Sith Knights and Lords, making her tired sooner after extensively using advanced technique. As such, Alaki was forced to reject the great effects granted to her by the Dark Side, namely the increased strength and speed. She became normal again, only more tired than before succumbing to her blind rage... at least she could focus properly now! Letting out a sigh, the blue skinned teen made a step towards her opponent, who swiftly carried herself up in the air and sent another Force push towards the Chiss. Back to the wall she went!

Hitting her head this time, she let out a pained grunt, mostly because of her injured thigh than anything, and simply remained stationary, feasting on the Dark Side and allowing her opponent to recover her lightsaber. A risky move, but she needed energy to fight, as an exhausted body was a useless corpse. Crimson eyes silently spied on the Acolyte who jumped around, wasting her energy on needless acrobatics. Ataru? Smirk crossed her lips and she stood ready in defensive stance of the fifth form when the Acolyte approached and attacked, going for her arm. With nowhere to retreat to, Alaki launched herself at the Sith Acolyte to give herself a tiny bit of room in her back instead of being stuck to the wall, and raised her blade horizontally to parry the blow going for her weapon arm. This successfully caught the weapon and, just as before, locked them.

Next came the kick. To Alaki's advantage, she did not have enough space behind herself to fall, and if necessary, she could lean on the wall. As the weapons were locked, she, once again, kicked out with her left leg to his the Acolyte's right knee, immediately followed by breaking the lock and making an attempt to remove the woman's right hand in a vertical downwards motion if the clown stumbled. If she did not, then Alaki tried to push the blades all the way to the left before sliding her baby blue plasma blade over the Acolyte's red one, going over the blade's length in an attempt to reach the hilt with her lightsaber and destroy her opponent's weapon.

[member="Alaki"]

The chiss kicked her leg, she fell the weapons became unlocked. She then swept down her blade, trying cut her hand off. Harley instinctively moved out the way, she still caught though. The chiss blade cut into her leg, as she rolled out. She screamed in pain, as it happened. She then tried to get up, she was know very gingerly on the saw leg. Chiss must be agony know as well, as her wound to inner leg must be starting to hurt know. She kept her posture, but put leg on floor properly. She prepared herself for any attack the chiss try on her, if she charged at her. She jump away and force push back to into the wall, when she came for her. If she pushed her, she pull the chiss towards her blade. She could not stand a fight until she control over the pain, so she counter what ever happened next.

 

[Bubák]

Despite not removing the Acolyte's hand or destroying her lightsaber, Alaki still managed to successfully hit the woman. The wound was nowhere near fatal, as it did not cut deep enough to reach the bone and the superheated blade of plasma immediately cauterized the wound, thus preventing the Sith Acolyte from bleeding. It would be harder for [member="Harley"] to fight properly now, with one leg unable to support the weight of the body, thus making her rely on the healthy leg more... not to mention she's already been hurt by the lightsaber once, which made a slight difference between her and Alaki, who had only suffered the cut through her thigh. The adrenaline coursing through the Chiss' body allowed Alaki to somewhat ignore the pain as she fought for her life, but for how long would she be able to deny it in her mind, she did not know... Defeating the Acolyte was her priority. Leaning against the wall behind her, she gave the wounded leg some rest, removing some of the pressure while her glowing red eyes watched her opponent. Alaki knew very well she should make use of the jester's weakness that was her wounded leg. The lack of stability meant one thing; the Sith Acolyte had to put most of her weight on her healthy, uninjured limb. Damaging that very limb would be the teen's goal, as taking Harley's other leg out meant making her immobile.

After judging the distance in split second, Alaki raised her hand and reached out through the Force to tug on the Acolyte's healthy leg, trying to yank it from under her, knowing full well the wounded leg alone wouldnot be able to keep the jester standing. If this tactic worked, Alaki pushed herself away from the wall and swiftly walked towards, her left leg lagging behind in a hobble with each step. It mattered little. Beads of sweat formed on her forehead as walking like this and constantly wasting her energy on telekinetic throws and pulls was quite exhausting. She paid her tired body no attention, the machine had to work for little longer even if one cog's been damaged. One more powerful downward swing of her lightsaber in an attempt to sever the Acolyte's fingers wrapped around the hilt, if not to destroy the hilt itself, and Alaki immediately tried to get away from the woman, stumbling backwards and falling on the ground, almost cleaving off her own leg as she fell on her back. This elicted some laughs from the audience, but she just gave them a hateful glare as she sat up.

[member="Alaki"]

As harley stood there, she felt a tug on her good leg, she began to fall down. As she did she pushed the chiss woman as well, so she gain no advantage. She fell on to her bad leg, and screamed in pain as she did. She saw the chiss woman hit the deck as well, she sent a unfocused force push her way. To keep her down, as she tried to get up. This was going to be agony, even trying to get up. She sat up first, ready to send another push the chiss way, if she need to. She needed to keep her down, and get up herself. She needed to end this for both their sakes.

 

[Bubák]

Alaki did not stay sitting for long as another Force push came her way, knocking her back down and dragging her on the ground. The thigh finally started to hurt, sending pain through her entire left leg and hips. Hissing and occacionally moaning, the teenage Chiss reached behind her head with her left hand, feeling the solid and cold concrete wall that served as a barricade to separate the fighters from the crowd. For a while, her fingers felt nothing but the coarse texture of the wall, but the hand continued searching. At the same time, the blue skinned girl pushed herself closer to the wall with her right leg, the left limb remaining motionless as she did not want to move it unless necessary, as every single move sent a fresh wave of pain through her being. Sure, Sith and Dark Side users often used pain to become stronger with the Dark Side, but this pain was crippling and did not allow Alaki to concentrate on drawing the Dark Side energy into her body.

Sitting up and leaning her back against the wall, thus rendering Harley's possible telekinetic attacks useless, the Chiss' hand reached further up until she finally found a place where the wall's been damaged by a lightsaber, which had burned a line into the concrete. Inserting her fingers in, she gritted her teeth to avoid screaming in pain as she pushed herself up, yet the tears that fell on the ground betrayed her attempts to keep up her strong facade. Some people may have had their limbs completely severed and yet they laughed because they were too badass to admit the pain; Alaki was not one of those people.

Her left hand remained in the slit, supporting her, while the weapon hand pointed the lightsaber at her opponent, blue light of a Jedi's lightsaber illuminating the jester's features. "Give up," the girl tried to hiss, yet what came out was mostly a sob. It was also the first time she spoke during the duel. With her blade pointed at the opponent, one hand gripping the wall to prevent the Sith Acolyte from pulling her away, the wall in her back making pushes pointless, Alaki hoped the other realized she had lost the duel. She really hoped so, as she did not feel like falling on her injured leg again.

[member="Harley"]

 

[Hailey Sosis]

[member="Alaki"]

Give up, why would I give up? She replied to the woman, she was know sat up right. She sent force pull at her, to try drag her of the wall. She planned to change it force push to slam her back into it, she was getting tired though she need to finish this and win. She winced in pain as she used the force pull, she was going to do this and grin and bear it as pushed her back into wall. Seh then going to try and stand up, force only knows how much this was going to hurt to even try.
