(( Makes sense 3nodding And, where is everyone? eek ))
And now, we'll add a third remote to the party here, Mordranna decided, with the trio of remotes hovering and dancing about her. With that, she too began a dance with the silvery floating orbs, her lightsaber deflecting each low powered shot.
At one time, one such shot even bounced back to the remote itself, shutting it down. Well, isn't that something? she thought, as she focused her attention on the remaining two remotes. A parry here. A deflection there. The firings of their bolts was adequate to keep her on her toes, as each flew on opposite sides of her. How devious ... I like that, After a fashion, Mordranna concluded that that would be enough for the time being.
A soft clapping came from the back of the room. It was Jax, the young padawan from earlier. "You're really good, lady. I can barely keep up with one!"
"It will come, with time," Mordranna gently told the young padawan. "The key is to concentrate,"
"I also once heard that Master Skywalker's old master made him wear a helmet with a blast shield on it while dueling a remote!" Jax chimed in with awe.
Mordranna also chuckled, remembering hearing of such. "Of course, one strong with the Force can do many things," She then had a thought. "Would you like to see something really neat?" She asked the young padawan, with a slight twinkle in her eye.
"You bet!" Jax excitely exclaimed.
Within moments, Mordranna reached the landing pad with Jax.
"Watch this," Mordranna calmly said. She then closed her eyes, looking as though she were taking a nap while standing up. That, and raising her arm towards her own fighter. A moment later, the fighter seemed to rise, and did so until it was about a few feet from the ground.
If it were possible, Jax's jaw would have dropped to the landing pad's floor. Using the Force, Mordranna then gently lowered the fighter back to the round.
"Lady, that is amazing!" Jax stared on in disbelief.
Mordranna merely nodded sagely. "One day, you'll be able to do that, and more,"

(( Hmm... Ladies and Gentlemen! Sunday, and the Magic Show Theater, I give you Modranna and her amazing power to lift star fighters with the Force! Tickets available now! BE THERE! lol Come to think of it, was there ever a Jedi that " retired " into doing Force bits to entertain people like that? ))
" Force be with you. " Angel's final words were to Neb through the Force, as she lead her troops onward, in what was now merely a diversionary march to take up their time, since she could not let on that she now knew the search was pointless, lest they question her own motives and loyalty, and the last thing she wanted was to have any of them bring news to the Dark Lord that she was traitorous. Though she would never turn against him, even though she wanted to be a Jedi and not a Sith, she could not risk it. Time passed and the small army came to another cave. Checking it out and saying it was clear, Angel followed a few Arch Angels in, to find some pedestal that someone had apparently been tinkering with. " Hmm... this is apparently some trap that someone had gotten passed and took whatever was on the pedestal. No doubt it was what we've looking for. Someone beat us to it and is most likely off planet already. The search is over. You, com the other units and tell them to head back to the ship. " Angel said. " Neb, you sly devil, YOU have it. Heh, oh well, at least I no longer need to worry about it. " she thought. She then commed the Dark Lord. " Phoenix... It appears the shard is not here. I am at a cave now with a fancy little trapped pedestal that had been disarmed. No doubt it housed what we're after, but by now it may very be halfway across the galaxy... Oh, and you're about to have a guest over. Some of our forces found Neb and he's being brought to you now so you can settle the score. " Angel ordered the troops back out after the others were commed the order to return, and began to march back as well.

The Red Tempest' technicians had just finished rooting out the creepers, as the battle winded down. A comm came in saying that New Republic leaders had moved to Yavin 4 and the fleet had orders to corner them there.
"Excellent job, Valycia. Find the shard, and today will mark the end of the Republic!"

After Mordranna's show of her prowess with levitation via the Force, she and Jax then took in some lunch in the cafeteria, and then, a trip to the infirmary, where they learned that Rin was doing much better.
"I'm ok now," the young padawan girl chirped.
"I'm glad to hear it," Mordranna gently replied.
The 2-1B droid then addressed Mordranna in a soft, mellow tone. "The girl's injuries seem to have stablized, General, and seems no worse for wear."
"Excellent work," Mordranna praised the droid.
"With your permission, ma'am, I should like to return to the Hope Eagle, should there be nothing more,"
Mordranna sagely nodded. "Yes, indeed. I too, should probably go back, as well, and personally oversee some drills,"
"Very good, ma'am," replied the droid.
Jax looked morosely to Mordranna, and Rin also did so in turn. "You're leaving now?"
Mordranna merely nodded. "Yes. A general's work is never done, I fear," she told the young duo.
"You'll come back and see us, right?"
"Of course. I'll do so as my duties permit me to," Mordranan told them, with a genuine smile. "In the meantime, I would ask a favor of you,"
"What is it?" Jax asked.
"Do mind your masters. And, no running off into unexplored ruins. Got it?"
The two children beamed. "Yes, ma'am!" they chirped in unison, as they each in turn gave her a respectful bow.
Mordranna then gave a bow in response. "Until next time, may the Force be with you."
(( fast forward ))
Mordranna then reached the landing pad. And, at once, she climbed into the little blue and white fighter, and within moments, climbed into Yavin Four's atmosphere. Once she was speaceborne, she took a moment to appreciate the beauty of space before docking aboard the Hope Eagle.

Drako still having his saber out deflected the shots. Having to move for some Drako grew tired of his learners "Inability" to understand the dark side.
" Chidee......i am NOT a man know for a long fuse. Since you do not respond in anger or hate....then you will with fear....." With that Drako zapped the blaster with a small jolt of lightining and let Chidee fall. Befor he hit the ground he slammed his hand around his neck. Running to the wall he slammed Chidee into the wall. Stepping back Drako grabbed his saber and put onto his belt. Drako then pulled a fist and took aim at Chidees chest. Missing Drako threw more puches till landing one in his gut. Drako then continued to beat Chidee into the wall. Knowing that he would not be able to take to much Drako wanted him to live. He let some of the blows ease off to the side so not braking any thing.
(( I know that sound *ucked. But thats what i am trying to go for. Chidee needs to be broken. Please tell me if you are ok with this. If not we will go anouther way. Pm me and we will talk.))

Novara went over the scans again.
" This guy must be the real thing. .....A no good frowner....but gots the ship to back it. "
Turning, Novara walked back to the turbo lift and back to the bridge.
" Ok men. Lets pull out. We are going to Telti."

((drako, remember, he's somewhat like a bug. Nemoidians are a bit more fragile than a mandelorian barbarian. Just don't cremate his body. Remember, if he's to be your apprentice, he has to live first. If every master beat his apprentice into a pulp, i think many would simply be "apprenticeless".))
Neb waited on the makeshift landing zone for the Federation shuttle. Neb grew bored, as it wasn't any fun to really just sit there. Staring up at the stars, his mind wandered off, as if remembering days long past.
I remember when I used to b***h and moan about being stuck in a place, and have nothing to do except watch the skies. Now, I'm complaining about having so much as to never watch the stars. Hypocritical, isn't it?
Neb's memories dozed off, as he began to think on days long past. Memories which, in the last seven years, had only been brought to mind twice. Once, when they were restored to him, and the other, onboard the Kapella, watching the holovideo with Mordranna.
The trance lasted for only 10 minutes, but it seemed like hours of thought had gone by. Waking from his daze, he gave a slight joke. "So, anyone ever been to Dac?"
Everything suddenly went blue, then black. Apparently, people with only one hand don't take well to comic routines...
((Ya, FP or DA or whatever, let's move this thing along...))

((Eh, I can dig it. Chidee wouldn't, but his opinion doesn't count xd .
Drako's saber was floating off somewhere, wasn't it? But, I'll assume that Drako just lets out a mighty Bruce Lee scream and pulls it back towards him.
Hey, I'm actually not sure what is meant by 'drawing upon the Dark Side' in this case. I'm guessing it's him using a Force power in anger or something. I'm going with Mind Trick, I guess))
It is no use, I cannot beat him...his power is completely overwhelming... thought Chidee as he slumped to the ground, Drako's blindingly fast and relentless attacks having completely overwhelmed the Neimoidian.
Broken and battered, more blows raining down upon him, he thought I can't move...I can't...let it end this way..., all hope draining from him.
He threw his head back and an animal scream slid past clenched teeth. Through sheer desperation and instinct, he blindly reached out with his mind.
I...need...power!
He felt a vile darkness flowing through him, making him feel sick and used. His red eyes took on a jaundiced cast as he looked around, half-blind.
Drako's interest in Chidee waned, as he seemed to blur and fade away, an unimportant background detail, and Drako himself felt dull and slow-witted. Chidee dizzily crawled away, bumping into the far wall and coming to a halt, where he sank down, exhausted. As Chidee started to vomit black bile, the fog over Drako's mind receeded.
((Well, Chidee's tapped into the Dark Side to pull a serious Mind Trick. And now he's feeling drained, and probably half out of it. Hope this one is okay))

The battle on Alaris Prime was ending. The Wookiees were defeated, although many continued attacking. As Imperius sat onboard the Red Tempest, he pondered what he would do with the Tan'Sa'Qua when he found it.
It was at that moment that a shuttle was brought in, bearing a prisoner:
Neb Wulf.
"Bring him to my office." was all that the guards needed.

Angel's forces made their way back and the groups reassembled back into the large mass they started as, minus some droids that were scrapped by enemy forces. They soon boarded the Red Tempest and went about their normal duties, and Angel went to the room reserved only for her. " I can't wait until we can get a new ship of our own and get away from all these troops. I miss the Eclipdra more and more with each passing day I'm onboard this starship. " she said to herself as she undressed and took a quick shower. After freshening up, she got dressed in more revealling attire than usual. It was virtually the same, but her top only came halfway down her torso, and had a skirt that came down halfway to her knees rather than pants. " Now I know what that smell is around the troop quarters. It can get hot out there when you're marching around in armor. Now I'm starting to wish I hadn't gotten nearly half my stuff laced with blaster-resistant material. Hell, I can deflect good enough anyways, not like I need it, but then again, you can't be too careful... Eh, as long as my room's keeps this nice air conditioning, I can live with it. " she thought, as she layed on her bed to relax, and dozed off.

Drako blindly threw punch after punch till he could not see Chidee anymore. Looking around Drako saw him throwing up a starnge black substance.
" Hrmm.....You are not as useless as i thought you to be. " Drako walked to his learner and slapped him on the back.
" Use of the dark side is not some thing you can just want..... It must be felt and needed. The power you will feel can ....Well in your case make you sick. Showing you are not ready. You will be....You will be....."
Drako lifted Chidee up and walked him out of the room. Throwing him into a med droid he walked off to find Novara.

Chidee groaned weakly as he was tossed around.
"I will be...fine." he muttered. "I just feel...tired, and dizzy. It's nothing." he said, struggling to stand, as the room seemed to swim around him.
Ugh...I feel...different. I do not know...
"I will be fine." he repeated, stumbling off after Drako. "You said we were to attack...Telti?" he asked, wobbling along beside his Master. "It is small, but a good start." he said, Neimoidian accent thicker than usual.
He paused, leaning against a wall and briefly catching his breath. "I will go to my ship, check what we know about Telti." he said, standing up again and walking staggering away.
***
Well...for better or for worse, my die is cast. he thought to himself, sitting at his desk. He'd just finished a brief session in his ship's med facilities, and now, impecably groomed again, was rapidly going through intelligence and the dispostion of his forces.
He messaged Drako.
"Master Drako. Telti is an out of the way system, difficult to get accurate information. But, from what we no, there will be little in the way of defenses. Very light satelite network, minimal ship coverage, nonexistant garrison. Few ships come here, as well." he said, in a brief summary of the information that he sent to Drako.
"I am already moving several ships towards Telti; far, far more than would be needed, but the droid factories make it significant, at this point."
"Any instructions, my Master?"

Angel was watching the Dark Lord and Neb face each other, and noticed something was off. The Dark Lord seemed to have fallen to the Dark Side to the point of madness, as his attacks showed nothing but raw rage rather than skill. She saw Neb take blow after blow, unable to defend against an overwhelming chaotic power. He was going to be killed, and she wanted to prevent it, in hopes she could bring the Dark Lord back to his senses, but she couldn't move. She could only watch, her desperate cries to stop unheard, as though they couldn't tell she was there. Then, Neb fell over from a mortal wound. He was lying in a pool of his own blood, dying. The Dark Lord grabbed his head and got him up on his knees. He then threw his arm back, saber ready, and swung it. The saber came around fast, and just as it made contact with Neb's neck...
______________________________________________________
Angel woke up, gasping in horror. Her breathing was heavy, her heart pounding. After a moment to take in her surroundings, she calmed herself. " It was only a dream... " She then tried to clear her mind and began to meditate, feeling both the Dark Lord and Neb through the Force. " They haven't fought yet. Good. That dream may be a premonition, and if it is, I can't let that come to pass. I have to make sure Phoenix doesn't kill Neb with such a rage in his heart, or I will lose him to the corruption of the Dark Side... " She went out of her room and made her way to the Dark Lord. " If you don't mind, I want to watch how it goes. I'm sure you intend to fight him. If nothing else, observing your duel with him may allow me to see what to expect from other Jedi Masters we'll be sure to fight afterwards that try to foil our plans in a last ditch effort once the galaxy is ours. "

Mordranna initially arrived at her second home, the Hope Eagle, and went on an inspection tour of the ship, with Admiral Kantz right behind her. As they went on, they also devised a battle simulation.
"Yes. Shields at full power, lasers at zero-point-five percent. Just enough to mark a 'hit' on sensors," Mordranna replied.
"Very good, general," Kantz replied.
"We will be Blue Group, along with the Starfish, the Jolly Ewok, the Candy Stripe, the Singing Pixie and the Grinning Bear, along with their respective fighter complements," Mordranna continued. "The rest of the fleet shall be Red Group,"
"When shall the mock battle commence?" Kantz inquired.
"One standard hour,"
(( How do you like my quirky ship names? xd ))
