So Many Ticons

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Life as a Mercenary was quite nice in Kezeroths perspective, able to get paid and kill people for the darkside was great and he still had time to slaughter the innocents too. With the Sith out of the Picture for the time the Gen'Dai was enjoying being alive for once, Though he did have plans for the Sith in the Future. So far he was new to Mercenary work and had only gone on three missions all simple and easy enough, In truth most missions he got were capture and return or murder them. Murder was his specialization specifically Force users, There in his AEG-77 Vigo Gunship he sat out side by the back ramp in a Hover chair in a Hangar cleaning his Sith Sword and LJ-50 Concussion Rifle.

He was new to the Red Ravens bu so far they paid well and it would only get better, they were allies with One Sith. Kezeroth always kept his enemies closer than his friends. Apon joining the Raven's he signed up in their fight club and fought a Kiera Ticon, This gave him a renown of sorts and a eye to keep on the Ticons. It seemed like there were many in the Red Raven Gang. A Protocol droid walked out handing the Gen'Dai more cleaner and some tools to fix his materials he would use more.

" Feth!" he muttered and removed his Devil Helmet , It fit him nicely but not when he was trying to focus. Next he Adjusted his Bone Robe a bundle of cloth bones and Hide resistant to blasters and lightsabers. It served it purpose well and made hunts easier since he masked his Force presence to others. The Gen'Dai did not expect company but on the other hand he always had some looking for him.

Lisa was a hunter, she loved the thrill of the chase, and the screams of the prey as they died. She had once observed Kezeroth fight her cousin in the ring. No matter how adept he was at hiding his force signature, she had pegged him as a forcie from day one. Others that shared in the delight of slaughter were not easy to find. Lisa was ambitious and she could tell from her observations of Kezeroth over time, so too was he.

So now she crept up on him, having followed him for a few days unseen and watching his movements. No doubt he had already sensed her. She was just beginning to get a grip on the monster inside her and the forces will itself. Her currents of dark energy spewed like fire hoses in all directions.

Clad in her regular flight-suit and dark gray armor plates, with the familiar black warpaint under her eyes she walked towards where he stood, with light footsteps.....

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

" Hehe.." he only chuckled as he felt the foot steps from a far, Sneaking up on Gen'Dai was a very difficult thing to do. Kezeroth was aware of her presance before she moved, he was used to people following him and spying on him as he spent a considerable amount of time living in the Coruscant undercity. He did not know who was approaching and didn't care for the moment he was busy. " A child of the Dark... If you have come to assassinate me you better get it over with before im done repairing this." He spoke aloud giving a mild threat, he could sense the Darkside and it was wild, untamed & not directed. The Sensation reminded him of his young self as a devout dark side enthusiast, he still was one but just older and greedier now.

The Protocol droid turned around and hailed [member="Lisa Ticon"]. " Identify yourself Miss." It commanded and gazed at her examining her. Kezeroth let out a light snarl as the droid spoke, he had just got done repairing it and now it was talking again. The last time it spoke too much and was "handled" with a Gen'Dais strength. Infact parts of the Droids body were bent and dented oddly, it had been worn apart and rebuilt many times.

" Or maybe you have come to hire me?! ... Whichever it is.. speak now!" He demanded and rose his head up some.

Lisa laughed as the big monstrous man spoke. She had faced down demons before and young Sithlings. Though he was large and could crush her, she felt oddly at ease with his presence.

"You don't scare me big man!"

With the force she reached out and grasped the droids head with a burst of telekinesis and ripped its head free of the body. It flew straight into her outstretched hand and she tossed it to the side. Her eyes watched his every move, to see if he would react or not react.

"I came for some guidance old timer. You're a darksider, and So am I. I need training beyond what I can teach myself."

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Kezeroth chuckled the head rolled about. " Guidance and training are not the same, If you need training go join with your Sith Allies.. Hehe." he said asuming the girl was apart of the Red ravens. Honestly the Gen'Dai wanted nothing to do with training anyone anymore, He trained sith, dark jedi, rogue jedi, all of them. " How do you treat the Darkside?" he asked in a more serious tone and continued to work on his Rifle. He did not fear or care for much of what [member="Lisa Ticon"] was here for but that could change very fast.

 

[RC 212]

[member="Kezeroth the Malevolent"]

"Me? I love the darkside. I dont do much with the light. I'm looking for training, I need to learn new skills. I can damn near take a building down with TK, but cant do much else. My saber work is also weak."

Lisa shifted from one foot to the other as she spoke. Giving away her weaknesses was not something she did ordinarily, but she could tell he was a seasoned forcer. Weaknesses needed to be exposed to learn how to better oneself.

"How good are you at force ligthning? I dabble, but I have yet to refine it."

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

The Gen'Dai continued to work on his Rifle as she spoke but felt her every move, he noted that she was becoming comfortable and said " Answer my question girl... How do you treat the Darkside.." he grumbled and lifted his head up slightly. Kezeroth rolled his eyes it seems he always got the cocky ones, If this [member="Lisa Ticon"] kept avoiding the question she would realize just how much she really knows about the darkside. By this time he was done with repairing his LJ-50 Concussion Rifle and slapped a large power cell in it, apon powering up the RIfle gave off a roaring hum and Kezeroth examined it some more.

"At first it controlled me. It was the puppeteer and I was the weapon. Now I gain more control, I can choose to let it work through me, or to work through it. Answer the question?"

Lisa's eyes peered at the rifle. A concussion rifle. A good weapon for taking down most jedi, as they were fools who relied far too much on their sabers. Lisa preferred not to lean so heavily on hers. The force was her ultimate weapon.

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Connecting the Rifle to a strap on his shoulder Kezeroth let it go having it dangling and finally got up out of his chair. Standing a 8'5 he was a true monster, a thump sounded and he moved his body to face her. " Its still in control of you, your just more aware and accepting. You are a mere infant to the darkside and its grasp. Gaze apon me girl...." He snarled as his eyes flashed with Hatred and Malice, Kezeroth did not look like a normal Gen'Dai the Darkside Degeneration had spread fast and gave him a deathly grim appearance, It showed how much he worshiped the darkside and how much he embodied it as a whole.

Looking down at her he moved closer " You will always be the Weapon, The darkside does not give control it take it away and offers you power in return. Whether you accept it or not, you are a servant and you execute the will of the darkside..." He grinned and continued in speech and steps, [member="Lisa Ticon"] would stand her ground or back up it did not matter. " Or are you a Sith... Lookings to merely use, bend and break the darkside to your will? Thread carefully infant the darkside can reshape itself in an instant and will destroy you. So ask your self this... How will you treat the Darkside?" He asked again after explaining, It took him thousands of years to realize and accept this information it was how he still managed to stay alive without following his own will.

"I dont believe in the full mandate of the Sith. I am neither Sith nor Jedi. I can accept from both dogmas. I treat the darkside as my companion and at times, my tool."

Lisas mind was now wandering. The big evil man was boring her so she decided tog et a closer look at his concussion rifle. With an outstretched hand she willed it towards her and it slipped into her palm. Her eyes ran the weapon up and down before tossing it back.

"The power lines are karked, you might wanna fix those unless you like replacing powercells every other shot!"

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Apon receiving his rifle back and hearing her response the Gen'dai stopped the rifle mid air and watched as it was crushed into a ball. " The Darkside see's you as a tool and at times, a companion." he twisted her words into a truth of what the Darkside was truly like. His corrupt gaze shifted examining [member="Lisa Ticon"]'s body and he laughed in her face. " It would be so easy, To crush you where you stand and feel you give out your LAST BREATH!" He said aloud, emphasizing the last part by raising his voice and spat in front of her. " Why should i even bother guiding someone with the mind set of you! Please tell me before i tell myself thing different." The ball of now crushed metal hit the ground with a thump and the Gen'Dai patience for those who did not fully accept the darkside was being tested truly.

"Because I love to kill, and my rage is infinite. Train me and you will always have a companion for whatever vile schemes you have concoted in your evil brain."

Lisa shrugged off the mans rage, letting it wash over her and invigorate her. This one was pure darkside. The evillest manifestation she had ever come across. She admired that and gave him a small smirk.

"Are you afraid big man?"

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

"Are you afraid big man?"

Kezeroth didn't even bother to respond to that one, [member="Lisa Ticon"] had some going for her though. " Rage is infinite..." he pondered on his and suddenly started to chuckle. " You wish you had infinite rage, Hah! Whatever... You want to learn?! You must desire power and endure pain!" after he said that a spark of lightning flashed and Kezeroth hand changed towards [member="Lisa Ticon"] direction, to let the dark energy consume and her. She said earlier she dabbled in force lightning, all past attempts were not true force lightning but after this it would be if and only if she truly desired the power. The Gen'Dai did not hold the torrents of lightning for long only took a medium grasp for every electrifying zap behind a trace of darkside energy, The Lightning faded and Kezeroth drew arm back, swatting at her he intended to send her flying across the hanger.

" Discomfort is your ally!" he said during the process of Force lightning.

[member="Kezeroth the Malevolent"]

Lisa cringed as the dark energy of the lightning singed her frame. she could feel the full grip of the darkside and it was taking her very bones over. As the darkness grew more and more she felt it seep into her bones. Rage and hate filled her body and she attempted to push back with the force, but it was of little use.

The giants next move to swat her sent Lisa clear across the hangar and into the wall with a thud. She could feel the vibrations of the metal as it thrummed continuously and she slid down. Blood rose in her mouth and she spat a gob out and stood to her feet.

"That's it. Thats the secret of force lightning?"

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Kezeroth smiled and crossed his arms against his chest. " Any attempts made at lightning before this moment were not true force lightning, in order to develop it you must desire power and lust after the darkside accept it fully. In time you will be able to produce your own, but if your asking about the hit that made you fly... That was for pleasure." he nodded his head with that smile of his and chuckled. He examined her body and listened as it cried out in pain, though she did not show it he knew it was hurting after that. Spouting air the Gen"dai squinted " So are you happy now? I sure am... The feeling of hitting someone across a room is pure ectasy for me. How baout another go?" He suggested and started laughing aloud.

[member="Kezeroth the Malevolent"]

Lisa scowled as he uttered the part about throwing her across the room being pure ecstasy. He was powerful in strength and force lightning, but how did his Telekinesis hold up? Lisa's legendary talent was her direct application of the force. She had been doing it since she was girl, unlocking locks and killing other children in the orphanage.

The door unlocked and there stood a small girl, purplish fire dancing in her eyes. She still spotted a bruise on her left eye where the orphan boy Targis had punched her earlier.

"Hello? Who's there?"

The room was dark and an orange light ominously fluttered on revealing Lisas slender frame in her tattered dress. It looked like an oily stained rag, hanging loosely from skin and bones.

"It's me Targis, did you enjoy that sweet roll?"

Unnatural darkness emanated in her voice making it sound low and whispery. The boy stepped back and then stumbled falling into the wall.

"No Lisa , NOOOOO!"

But his screams were cut short as a nearby bookcase began to creak and groan. With a surprising force it broke free of the wall, tumbling down upon the small eleven year old. His last look seared into her brain. Those desperate eyes, the smell of fear and urine as he drew his last breath.

THUD
CRUNCH!

Nothing remained now except a pool of blood, and a bookcase that had accidentally fallen. The fire left Lisa's eyes and she looked around. Footsteps were coming down the creaky stairs. She pulled into the shadows tiptoeing away. It was time to leave the scene of the crime......

The Memory drew to the fore and now she felt that same mix of emotions. Fear from the boy, the thrill of the kill, the pain of her busted lip and singed body. The beast inside her roared and she clamped it's throat with an iron fist, forcing it into her will.

"How about my turn buddy, catch!"

Her fist became wreathed in a dark energy, barely visible purplish and dancing. She punched the ground, splintering the tarmac with the sheer force of the blow. The ground began to crack and heave, some chunks of duracrete flying straight up. As the chasm opened racing towards where the hulking Kezeroth stood, it threatened to engulf him.

With her other palm open she prepared for his counter as well as an attack of her own....

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Kezeroth raised a brow as the ground shook and opened up like a chasm, it looked this this was battle of force abilities now. He tilted his head slightly recognizing her potential as a force user, it seems she knew something after all. With Duracrete falling about and slamming into the ground the Gen'Dai shifted his feet and released a Force Repulse sending the duracrete flying all over and some in [member="Lisa Ticon"] direction. With the chasm about ready to devour him Kezeroth leaned to the left and in a flash he was there safe from harm. Dust flied up from his path, you could see the route he took clearly as the dirty air settled.

" Impressive Girl..." he said smiling still and put his hands together like he was going to make a Ball, as he moved them his hands started to emit Heat and steam. Soon a Flame shaped like a Hutt-ball was given form, it shined bright and was felt even from afar.. Such Heat. Grasping the Ball of Flames the Gen'dai pulled it back with one arm and hurled it at the girl.

[member="Kezeroth the Malevolent"]

Lisa growled as Kezeroth leapt away. The dark energy she had agthered for her second attack crescendoed now, warping across her forearms and crackling in the dark shape of waves. As he leaped she tracked him, whirling to face him, only to meet his counter attack. Her eyes opened wide and for the first time since their encounter Lisa felt another emotion... Surprise.

With little time to act before being crushed she knew her options were limited, but that did not stop the savage young woman from pressing what little advantage remained. As Kezeroths large chunk of duracrete roared towards here she bent all her vengeance and will upon it.

The force powered missile began to slow, but not as fast as she would like. It would not be enough to stop the hulking thing. Instead she her self leaped to the side, staying across the chasm she had created. The beast inside her roared, and Lisa roared.

Flames began to erupt towards her, a searing burning sensation. She could feel her busted up lip now frying along with what was left of her outsides as a crimson and orange fireball came sailing into her. Lisa did the only thing she knew how, and went full psycho

"Die you kriffing Monster!"

Enraged even more by the flames she summoned her power again and sent it all into a single push. Both hands clasped together as if to spear Kezeroth and the duracrete chunk from earlier rose to her command. Just as the fireball came to bear the durcarete crossed the distance, taking the full on brunt of the fireball. Flaming rock and melted re-bar sprayed into her, agonizing her even more.

The duracrete chunk flew back at Kezeroth now, fully ablaze with his own force fire.

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

Oh how she was so much like him when Kezeroth was young and knew little about the darkside. The battle was getting dangerous in the Hagar and any damage placed on his ship would be paid for with blood. He never wanted to train this girl and so he would make it clear to her, using pyrokinesis tired him if it was used too much and so the best way to end it all was through an ability he had used in while. Looking up Kezeroth bent his legs and leaped high in the air, his balance was thrown off as he was glanced by multipule duractere shards but it was all ok. His taozin hide Robe protected him much and as the Gen'Dai fell he came down hard on his knees. The ground shook and bent into his will, Alter Enviorment it was known as and it was becoming altered. On his knees the Gen'Dai pounded the ground over and over creating rocky tremors in the local area. Hoping up on his feet Kezeroth leaned forward and charged in at [member="Lisa Ticon"] attempting to swat her aside again.

[member="Kezeroth the Malevolent"]

Lisa felt the ground quake and she began to lose her footing. Although she was skilled at most things, she could not dodge an earthquake and her powers were beginning to wane as her fatigue set in. When Kezeroth came charging across the gap she threw up both arms and went limp.

Another blow connected with her, flinging her across the bay and back towards the wall. This one might have been a little more fatal but for the fact that she unleashed a force push at the last possible second, and slowed her velocity. She still hit the wall with a deafening thud and slid down it again, this time feeling much more pain than the last.

Never one to be cowed Lisa pushed her self up, blood running freely from cuts along her face and back and armor still steaming from the heat of the blaze. She was burned and beaten and almost all out of juice.

"I yield." She said, straightening herself up and brushing blood and dust away.
