Throwing Knives sounds like fun

[Darth Vaildra]

Hakora arrived on the training field away from the headquarters where he was to meet [member="Vulpesen"] . He arrived with a bag full of knives and other melee weapons as per instructions. It was a nice, cool day and the field was beautiful with short grass and surrounded by trees.

 

[Vulpesen]

Vulpesen's tail flicked behind him as he rested on a tree branch. Always having a habit of arriving early for practices, he was idly moving away his boredom by floating a set of daggers in the air. The crunch of Hakora's boots on the ground alerted him to the others presences and he turned to see him. "Salutations." He let out a small smiled and rolled off, dropping to the ground to land before [member="Hakora Feanor"]. His tail flicked behind him as he motioned the daggers back into his coat. "So, which skill would you prefer to learn?"

 

[Darth Vaildra]

Hakora jumped a little at his presences and voice. "Remind me why you made me Head of Intelligence, you are much more silent than I." Hakora laughed a little, and then grabbed one of the daggers. "I am not bad at using TK, but I heard you could shoot a dagger like a gun shoots a laser, I was hoping to learn this skill." Hakora let the dagger rise from his hand and at first it wobbled and after a moment Hakora stabilized it and looked at the target set up and shot the dagger at it missing it and losing it to the forrest, "ummm no laughing."

Vulpesen chuckled a bit but managed to clamp down on it as he saw the dagger fly off. Holding up his hand, he then used the force to grab it before drawing it back over to himself. "Close." Hakora's blade came to rest in his palm and he leaned against the tree. "I'm too busy leading this whole mess. After all, someone has to keep the paperwork in line." He shot the dagger back to Hakora's feet, the weapon only being a barely visible blur before embedding itself into the dirt. "As for me shooting blasters. Its an ability known as Ballistakinesis. It takes a great deal of practice and is inaccurate by nature. I've just managed to combine it with a few abilities to change that."

"Ok, so how exactly does it work? What makes it any different that throwing a lightsaber or a rock?" Hakora reached down with the force to pull the knife out, but it didn't budge. He smiled embarrassed a little and add more pull to get it out. He let the dagger spin in the air around him. "How exactly do you aim it or do you controll in making corrections in flight?"

Vulpesen stood there for a moment, thinking before he walked over to a tree. Placing his hand against the bar, there would be a small sound as if something had been driven through the wood. When Vulpesen pulled back, there would be a dot surrounded by a ring, both of which were driven deep int the tree trunk. "Each of those are to be learned separately. One to guide, and one to drive." He point to the dot. "You'll learn this first." He then went to the ring. "Then this. And once you know both, we'll start mixing them."

Hakora looked at it a bit confused. He was not too sure about what was being asked of him. He spun the knife in the air trying to get an understanding of control. While Hakora was currently a Knight and TK was a basic ability of any Force user, but this sense of control for beyond mastery and he was not sure if he could reach Vulpesen's level. In reality he did not need to match it, only get to a working level that he could be a threat to his enemies.. He stopped the spin and focused it aiming for the tree. He put his power into and shot it again. It hit the tree, but missed the target and went through the tree and shattering halfway through. "Ummm, at least I hit the tree."

He walked over to Hakora upon seeing the failure. With the force, he plucked a dagger from his trainee's bag and then used his hands to firmly place the weapon's hilt against his palm. However, the placment was in such a way as to that he couldn't hold it, instead forced to hold his hand out with the weapon pointed out from his widened hand. "Patience. To run you need to learn how to walk." He waved his hands and his own daggers felled a tree before driving it into the ground before Hakora and providing a stand for the dagger, though no rest for his arm.

Having no need to personally hold up the blade, Vulpesen let go and stepped to Hakora's side. "Focus on that spot where the dagger and your hand meet. Don't fire. Only focus. I want to feel the force build,a and I want to sense you on the edge of bursting before I tell you to relax the energy." Of course, Vulpesen knew this would do little to improve the accuracy, if anything. But that would happen later.

Hakora summoned another dagger to his hand and held it as instructed. He closed his eyes, a quick way to focus on the task at hand and shut out other distractions. He let the force surround the dagger as he felt the curve of the blade, the intentions of the hilt. He then reached deeper finding the balance of the blade, the signs on how the dagger was made. The force was building in his hand surrounding an consuming the dagger, but like the a gentle breeze and not a storm within a hand.

Vulpesen took two fingers and ran them down the sides of the blade before they converged at the center of Hakora's palm where it met the dagger. "Here. nothing exists. Not the dagger, not you, not your enemy. This point is all that matters."

[Darth Vaildra]

He found Vulpesen touching him to be odd, but if this was the way to learn he would. He let himself fall into the Force where nothing existed, but the Force. The Force showed him the dagger, but something was different it was breaking apart first into sections, then into pieces, slivers and then molecules and he saw it. He had learned how to feel the weight of a blade, but the Force was showing him the true weight, the weight in the Force.

The dagger came back together and he opened his eyes that were redish Orange. He harnessed his new understand and the Force and shot the blade at the tree. The blade hit and stuck just outside the target. It was a miss, but revealed one thing that his prevous attempts didn't. "Accuracy can be achieved."
