To the beginning.

[Vulpesen]

He nodded to Alexandra. "Of course, and thanks for the help. I didn't mean to get you sucked into this. After all, I wasn't exactly expecting a civil war." He turned back to their apparent guide. "Well, we're all yours I guess. What do you need us to do?" Well, another adventure, and another war. Apperently finding the planet wasn't the hard part. "Come with us. I'm sure you know that someone is going to be eager to meet you." With that, he turned and walked off, leaving Vulps and Alex to follow.

Alexandra smiled and looked at the man, resisting the urge to get too close though she did walk beside him while they followed the man, her eyes scanning over the forest, hating in that moment that she could no longer sense the force or those around her. Only after receiving a portion of her memories, the void was still there but she was over it quickly as she had found life without the force to be peaceful as well.

 

[Vulpesen]

He smiled at Alexandra as they walked. Ok, so thing hadn't turned out like he had planned. Still, they were alive and now he was going to meet his parents.On and on they walked, and Vulpesen couldn't help but be amazed as they walked through this strange forest. It was a beautiful place, there was no doubt about that, and he couldn't help but marvel at the sights. But despite the sight seeing, they were here for a reason, and after their walk completed, filled with idle conversation and the like, they stopped at a particularly large and wide tree where their guide placed his claws hand on a wide piece of bark. "Vitae, Beren, Armis." As as he lifted the hand away, the bark slid to the side, opening and revealing a shaft which no doubt led to some lower levels. "This way." With that, he leaped down for Vulpesen and Alex to follow, the former of whom did so rather eagerly.

The ride was quick and exhilarating as Vulpesen slid down, occasionally lopping across the surface until a light was seen under him. Just before he hit the ground, a containment momentarily wrapped around his body, stopping his fall before dropping him to the ground. Around him sat monitors and Zorrens who bustled about, documents and other things in their hands as they worked on some unknown operation. In the center of the room, a large strategy table table was surrounded by several obviously high ranked men, the center of which held a very familiar look to Vulpesen, even as a grey tail flicked behind him. Only seen in his holocron and a memory with the help of [member="Alexandra Lianne Feanor"], Vulpesen simply couldn't believe his eyes. Everything stopped. A sight he never expected and for one in his life, he was able to meet the man who he should have known throughout his years. "... Father."

She remained silent and only watched as a tension in the air formed, her eyes shifting from Vulpesen to the man whom he had indicated to be his father. Odd part though was she noticed she couldn't find where his mother was, looking around quickly for her and chopping it down to being that she just wasn't there at the time. Then her eyes returned to the man and she suddenly got this awkward feeling that things were going to be very different in a few moments...

 

[Vulpesen]

The man lifted his head and looked up at Vulpesen cocking his head to the side as he saw him. "I'm sorry, are you looking for someone?" His voice was respectful and kind, something one could expect from a past jedi. A larger man with a face surrounded by a rugged beard, Garen certainly held a demanding presence, especially since his size did not come at the price of any fat whatsoever. "U-ummm... You could sat that." He thought for a moment and drew his lightsaber, remembering where he had gotten his first crystal which he had placed into it in case a red blade didn't go over so well. A flick of the switch and a black and gold blade revealed itself from the weapon. This time, it was the elder Torrevaso's turn to look stunned. "That's... You're..." He leaped over the table and charged Vulpesen who just managed to switch the weapon off as he was taken into a powerful hug. For the first time in over twenty years, he had finally met his father and he couldn't hep but feel amazement at the moment.

She blinked and stared at the two, kinda just watching Vulpesen while she turned her head to smile at the other Zorren. So maybe Vulpesen wasn't getting weird looks, but a woman with silver hair and eyes, carrying sabers, a pistol, and a dauntless blade over her shoulder... probably not the most comforting sight around their leader as she kind of felt like they expected her to attack. Finally she looked at Vulpesen and smiled lightly. "Uh Vulps, hate to interrupt but, i dont think they are so comfortable with me...." She glanced again at the guards, they may have lowered their weapons, but distrust was still distrust.

 

[Vulpesen]

Vulpesen turned his head to face Alex while his father finally set him down. "Oh, right. Lost father, beloved girlfriend. Beloved girlfriend, lost father." His hands moved between them as he indicated who was who, his words setting the guards at ease. As for Alexandra's earlier question, he was wondering the same, though he was a bit more willing to actually ask about it. "Sooo... wheres my mother?" His father's eyes widened and he turned to one of his men. "Right! You, get Carliah here as soon as possible!" In a moment the man sped off, leaving Vulpesen Alex and the elder zorren together, the last of whom finally turned his attention to Alexandra. "A pleasure to meet you, my name is Garen Torrevaso. I wish I could say that Vulpesen had told me about you, but that hasn't exactly been possible."

She smiled as the man turned on her and gave him a bow with both her hands crossed behind her, cloak still around her though as she stood there. "A pleasure, Alexandra Lianne Feanor, I am a master of the force like your son... though at the moment i wont be able to actually utilize my knowledge, a Jedi holds all my memories pertaining to the force itself. Past that, unlike your son obviously im Echani and Eldorai, thus my hair and ears."

 

[Vulpesen]

"Oh? Well, I guess its good to see that my son didn't bring home one of those Amaran girls. Nice but I think the match would be a bit too strange for my liking." Garen smiled and flicked his tail before walking across to head to another room. "Please come, I'd rather not disturb the people here and when his mother gets the news..." As if on cue a womanly shout could be heard behind one of the walls. "WHY WAS I NOT INFORMED SOONER?" A frightened voice could be heard but such would likely be unheard to those who's ears were not as strong as the zorrens. "Lady Carliah, please I didn't mean to-" A large crackling sound could be heard and the man from earlier dashed out, sparks of lightning at his heels. "Sir, your wife is in a mood!" Stumbled behind Garen and hid as a woman marched out, a mane of fiery red hair around her shoulders with a beautiful tail to match. Despite her temper, she stopped moving as soon as her eyes caught Alexandra. Flicking a strand of hair over her shoulder, he folded her hands gently in front of her. "Oh hello. I guess we have company. Next she looked at Vulpesen and her golden eyes widened. "Vulpesen, my baby!" She dashed forward at an amazing speed and hugged her son with an exuberance even his father hadn't shown and the boy could barely breathe through her squeezing. "Hello Mom... can't... breathe."

[Alexandra Feanor]

[member="Darth Tsolan"]

"Uh hello back..." She waved her hand before Vulpesen got barreled into and simply laughed as he struggled to breath, suddenly a bit relieved her own parents were not around to cause such a scene... Or around at all... She shook her head for a moment and looked at Garen, voice low as she spoke and still grinned. "She isn't going to squeeze until his head pops off right? That would be a bad thing." A simple joke, until she realized that Vulpesen's father might not take it as such and shutting up until she heard a laugh or got a glare.

 

[Vulpesen]

"Oh, I doubt she'll kill him just yet. She just gets excited is all." Garen let out a small laugh and started to walk off. "Come on darling, I'm sure those two are tired from their trip and these men are busy. Lets have our reunion somewhere more quiet." With that, he led them on and Vulpesen was released from the death grip of his mothers embrace. A huge intake of air later, he was on his way with his parents, though he stayed close to Alexandra. "Sooo..." In all honesty, he had no words to say. After all, a how ya doin' don't quite cover it in a place like this.

She heard Vulpesen and kept herself from laughing as he simply said so, unable to think of a real question or subject to talk about. She instantly wished she still knew how to talk to him through the force once more, her inability to do anything annoying her... up until Daeda talked to her. She grinned and let Daeda relay the message. "Tell them about yourself... her words after this point... You Fox Brained twit." She only grinned at Vulpesen as the words were relayed, a silent and secure way to talk to him, without the force.

 

[Vulpesen]

Vulpesen cast her a glance and rose returned with his own message. Oh and how do I start off? Perhaps with, "Sooo, after you abandoned me..." Its not quite as easy as it seems. I mean yeah I could tell them my stories, but I don't even know where to begin. One good thing about the ashlan link was that when one spoke through it, their feelings weren't quite so easy to catch in the force and thus Vulpesen's parents were kept unaware of the discussion.

"You can't get anywhere though if you don't speak... Uh Vulpesen shes go-" Alex cut off Daeda as she spoke, with a wide grin on her face as she glanced at the two parents. "Your son was a Jedi Master by the way, then a Sith Lord now." She cast one glance at Vulps that said a single word with a bit of humor. 'Chicken...'

 

[Vulpesen]

Vulpesen stiffened and glared at Alexandra before returning his gaze to his father. "Oh? Strange, he seemed a bit neutral for me. What do you think Carliah?" He turned to his wife who's smiled widened unlike any other. "PASSIONS, I KNEW HE'D CHOOSE HIS PASSIONS!" Fr a moment, it would seem as if she'd burst into tears. "Oh, I'm so proud of my boy and to betray the jedi? Bold..." With that, he brought in a small interjection. "Actually, the jedi have no idea I'm a sith. I kinda disappeared without a trace." "HE'S DEVIOUS, EVEN BETTER!" This time she did burst into tears and she hugged him. "See Garen, I told him passions would win out!"

"Actually, its a bit more complicated. I kinda joined to help others though, technically I suppose that's a passion of mine..." She gained a bit of control about her self, but not much. Just enough to keep from flooding the room with her tears of joy. "Close enough. But if you chose passions, then this young lady must be..." She stepped aside, her tail wrapping around Alexandra as she purred delightfully. "Your lover?" Ok, so it might have been true, but that didn't mean that Vulpesen wasn't going to turn redder than he ever had before. "I... uh.. that's... eh..."

[member="Alexandra Lianne Feanor"]

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

[member="Darth Tsolan"]

Alexandra blinked at the woman as she continued to speak and speak on and on, so utterly confused for a moment before remembering that Carliah was the one that was suppose to be a Sith... but wait... why does she have a tail... Then the Lover comment came up and she instinctively looked down at her stomach without thinking and then back around at them as she was as choked up as Vulpesen. "Well yes... i mean no... well we did... but uh... kark..." She looked down again, feeling the tail still wrapped around her and the purring.

 

[Vulpesen]

Vulpesen was too red to notice but Carliah caught it in an instant. "Hmm... and a secret to tell, though not mine I'm afraid." She smiled and walked over to her husband to kiss his cheek. "So, shall we continue to our place? As much as I'm enjoying this, I'd rather not have any child of mine caught blushing like a child." With that comment, Vulpesen snapped out of it and walked after them. "Somehow, I'm starting to think the majority of our troubles won't come form the bandits." Garen let out a laugh with that comment and continued walking. "Don't worry, you're mother is just happy to see you." Carliah nodded in agreement and wrapped her arms around his before giving a nod of confirmation. "And I never did get the pleasure of embarrassing you in front of your girlfriends. Not until now that is.

"I.. err..." She swallowed and remained still, pale as a ghost for the few seconds. Only Vulpesen didn't notice which relieved her as she sighed and let out the breath she had been holding. Running up to catch up with them she grabbed Vulpesen's arm without thinking, holding it and hoping that his mother truly would say nothing, not yet atleast. She did smile though, atleast one person knew and that lifted a weight off her shoulders.

 

[Vulpesen]

He smiled as Alexandra took a hold of his arm and he turned to kiss her. He couldn't say much of his father, but he had a feeling his mother might approve, even if there was a chance she'd do it a bit exuberantly. As they finally entered a room, The parents sat down on a couch and motinoed to another. "So, why don't you tell us whats been going on, I'm sure theres a lot for us to catch up on." "Like how you met perhaps."

[member="Alexandra Lianne Feanor"]

 

[Alexandra Feanor]

[member="Darth Tsolan"]

Alexandra looked at Vulpesen and then at them before speaking. "Well... we sort of met while fighting against eachother... only i was the Sith at the time and him the Jedi... our roles have kind of reversed. Minus the Jedi part, im no jedi but he's of the darker part of the force and ya..." She hated talking now, unable to get out what she was actually thinking as she sat on the other couch with Vulps beside her.
