Talon noded. He decided to definetly take those pointers and keep practicing for the rest of the day. He kept doing the same thing he did before, but trying other add-ons to his deflections.

K'tana's ears pricked as the sound of multiple sabers echoed down the main hall way. But Renii didn't care. She had seen the training sabers of the other padawans. Her blade had no such ability. The red blade of the Sith hung at her belt a forceful reminder of the training she would never have. Her path was shaping itself not allowing a slow and steady pace of a learner. Someday that would catch up with her. Bur when it did hopefully she would put up a darn good fight.
K'tana whinned he was restless. Soon she would have to leave.

Adonis heard Master Sephiroth summon him and Kari to the Council Chamber. He turned, and headed towards it, wondering what Master Sephiroth could want. He walked into the middle of the Chamber and bowed to him.

Having wondered around the streets of Coruscant, James decided that he needed to find his master, however he had no means of getting off of the planet, so he decided to seek the help of the Jedi. He strolled into the Temple, and looked around, hoping to see a Jedi.
Though he was a Dark Jedi, he had no particular strong emotions emitted from him, as well as his connection to the Force was not especially potent, even within the confinds of the Temple. He had since changed from his Dark Jedi robes into a Spec-Ops Duster. His lightsaber was well consealed, attached to his belt, across the base of his spine.
I am in desperate need of assistance, is any Jedi able to help me?

Kari entered the Council Chamber and saw Adonis and Master Sephiroth there. Master Sephiroth was in the same seat as before, and Adonis was standing in the middle of the room as anyone who is summoned does. Kari bowed before Master Sephiroth as she walked into the middle of the room. Kari waited for Master Sephiroth to speak, since he had summoned them Kari guessed he would speak when he was ready.

What do you need?"

Jami was walking through the Temple when he heard Renii speaking to someone, though he could see neither of them. The young Padawan leaned against a wall, out of sight, and strained to hear. He didn't make a sound, and he hoped that he would be able to discover why Renii sounded so hostile. He took a datapad out of his pocket and switched it on record, for future reference should he need it.

Walking through the many isles of the Archives, Ryukai kept searching for the one piece of data that struck more interest in him than anything. The Forms of Lightsaber combat. The Lightsaber was the symbol of the Jedi's authority. An elegant weapon for the warriors of the force who perferred close quarters combat over diplomatic solutions. The search led him to what he sought, grabbing the file quickly and sitting down to read the various forms of combat.
He whispered the names quietly
"Shii-cho....Makashi....Soresu....Ataru....Shien/Djem So....Niman....Juyo/Vaapad"
Ryukai read of how the fifth and seventh forms had two names. He typed in Shien and Djem So to read there first, then he would go through each of the seperately, expanding his knowledge of the Lightsaber forms
"Shien and Djem So fall under the physical and aggressive category of Form V. The two mix together as a supposed good match, Shien for deflection of blaster bolts and Djem So for clashing with another saber. Form V was developed by a group of Jedi Masters, led by Senior Council Member Jedi Master Plo Koon, who felt that Form III was too passive, while Form IV was not powerful enough.
It addressed the shortcomings of both forms, in which a Jedi Master may have proved to be undefeatable but could not overcome the enemy. Among the many unique aspects of Form V was the development of techniques in which the lightsaber was used to deliberately deflect a blaster bolt directly back at the firer. Form V is also different from Form III in the fact that Form V practitioners believe that the best defense is a good offense.
It has already been observed that Form III users simply deflect blaster bolts and parry lightsaber attacks until the opponent makes a fatal mistake. Form V practitioners take the near impenetrable defenses of Form III and press the assault, using wide, sweeping blows in an attempt to overwhelm the opponent with brute strength."
Ryukai sat back, making all the information sink into his mind. He look up at the ceiling in utter amazement, knowing that this was one of seven forms and he wasn't even scratching the surface of Lightsaber combat. He continued to sit there, hoping to find a form that would set a goal for him for his time at the Temple

Talon was still working on Soresu. He had been working on it for a while now. He had gotten much better then when he started. Talon decided he would keep working on this until he got good enough at it, even it it took him a very long time.

As the hours drug on, Eldin set his strength to its limits as the droid battled against him tirelessly. Eldin wanted to see just how long he could last, putting all his will and strength into it as he filled himself with the Force and hung on. His white blazzed whizzed back and forth, spinning, batting, slicing to and fro, meeting the droid's blue blade again and again.

My family are there, and they are caught up in the civil war. I need someone to help me.

Your in luck transporting is the family buisness, Gold Star Escorting, barely any questions asked. I"ll do this commision for free as long as your names clear, but a fighter escort will cost extra. Sound good?"

There was several moments of silence as the two summoned Jedi waiting in the centre of the Council Chamber, Sephiroth gracefully stroking the underside of his chin with his right thumb, looking away from the Jedi, clearly lost in deep thought. Eventually, he spoke, however his eyes did not meet theirs' straight away.
It is a dark and dangerous time. There are people out in the galaxy who want to destroy the Jedi, who threaten the Republic, and are clearly able to...
Sephiroth fell silent again, pondering to himself about the decisions he was making, questioning their accuracy. He turned to the two Jedi, still remaining seated, this time looking at them directly.
...But the Jedi cannot stay locked up here forever. Even if at risk, they must do what they can to protect the Republic.
Though what he was saying was obvious, he felt it needed to be said, not only to remind them of it, but more to remind himself. Having been thrown into the deep end of this situation unwillingly and without guidence, his recent actions, over-protecting the Jedi, were out of his desire not to fail, to not be the one who led the Jedi to doom. By repeating this words was the only way he could confront the situation, the termoil in his mind, without leading the Jedi to their demise by his actions. Rising to his feet, Sephiroth stepped over to Adonis and Kari, his robes gently gliding across the polished floor, giving them each a slight bow, almost signalling the official start to the meeting.
Jedi are being dispatched the Rori. Though no longer in the Republic, its civil war is a threat, possibly provoking other systems to do the same. You are to go there, calm the situation and, if at all possible, get them to reconsider the Republic. You two, together, are in charge of the operation once you get on the surface. I'd suggest taking several Padawans with you as a learning opportunity, but remember, it will be dangerous, so only take those who are trained enough to handle themselves. Any questions?

Kari remained quiet as Master Sephiroth spoke, this mission was clearly a very important one. However Kari felt a little history on the planet might be a good idea or at least some idea of which side is more friendly to the republic.
Master, how long has the civil war been going on and if any which side is more friendly to the republic?

Answering Kari's important question was no problem for Sephiroth. The information about Rori was available on the tip of his tongue. It had been a hotspot for some time within the Republic, so naturally the leading Jedi were informed of the finer detail of the situation so that they could aid the Republic is a resolution to the problem.
Two factions operate, both with opposing ideologies. However, neither are sypathetic to the Republic, or to any outsiders infact. The war has raged since shortly after the fall of the Imperials three years ago. It had something to do with the changing political structure of the galaxy and Republic exploitation of natural resources. What these resources are, I do not know...
