Finally she was feeling the long lost emotions that had evaded her for the longest time. He had made her docile and now it broke free. She rose without speaking, seething with rage towards Aryx as her emotions flailed about inside of her like a caged dragon. She strode beside him and looked darkly at him. Her voice came as cold venom, heartless and cynical, "Have you checked your a**? Her brows furrowed angrily and she spat on him and when she continued her voice was a roar, "YOU DON'T ******** IGNORE ME WHEN I SPEAK TO YOU!!! IF YOU WANT TO LIVE THEN YOU ******** LISTEN TO ME!!! Her teeth were bared and her eyes large. She could feel the energy from her anger amplified by her insanity and she swung full force to backhand the pale man into next week,

James sat back in his chair and began to think about his destination. He had never been to Rori, but he had heard a few stories about it when he was living on the streets. He had heard that the place was full of wildlife, and that it was covered with a dense fog.
His chain of thought quickly moved onto his actual mission. He wondered what his master had planned, and how it involved James. After all, he had not seen him in a long time, so James was not sure if his master's intentions were still the same.
As this was such a long journey, James decided to let the boredom get to him, so he slowly pulled out his lightsaber hilt, and gently tossed it up in his hand as he sat in deep thought.
I still cannot thank you enough for taking me to Rori. You are truely one of the kindest people I have ever met.
James said this whilst pulling a melancholy smile. Even though he was glad that Renii had offered to take him, his was still not sure about her, so he was understandably cautious of her.

Her hand hit an invisible wall of force energy and was cast swiftly aside. Aryx turned away form her, calculating the last few minutes before they left hyperspace. The iridescent colors vanished, replaced by black flecked with yellow, dull red, and pale white miniscule dots. One dot was larger then all the others, righ tnow it wa sonly the size of a small moon but it quickly grew in size. Korriban, nothign more then a ball of dust and crumbling monolithic structures of a race long since extinct, and a faction long since rendered invisible and thought to be dead. It was simply amazing that a large port city could be built here.
"The reason we are coming back." His voiced came form behind his mask, aimed at Nini. "Is because there is somethign I must see in the valley of the lords. You may have faught sand people and krayt dragons. But you'be never faught another force user...nor a darkside dragon." He told her what she wanted to now, with out revelaing what he himself planned to do.

And as quickly as it had come it vanished, leaving a deep abyss of coldness and pain in its wake. She moved silently back to the shadows, her heart aching with the lonliness of a 5 year old girl who had just watch her only friend die painfully with no response but to hide. She pulled her knees to her chest and sobbed into them. A rare ritual of self pity she did often and nobody had lived to see it. She pitied herself because nobody else would, nobody shows an outlaw sympathy, nobody loves an outsider, 'They were right about me...'
She felt then for herself because nobody ever had, and in her eyes, never would. Her fate was chosen by the Gods of a lone wolf with a crippled mind and a broken heart, and at times it killed her, as it did now. She closed her eyes tight to the flood of tears, because she had respected him and he had brushed her off like a child, like an insect. She wanted badly to hate him again for it, to just lash out or scream once more, but she couldn't. Her mind denied it. Her teeth tightly to stifle the sobs and she balled her fists hard, her claws nearly going completely through her palm and out the other side, blood flowing easily to the ship's floor, 'I bet he's never lost as I have, never been alone, weak, and in pain. He feels no pain, that's how they are... no pain... maybe this is the right thing for me...' She bit down on her lip as another wave of pain and sorrow doubled her over and wracked her body once more. It would pass, and she'd be fine; but then, it meant so much to be alone. In a sea of nothing she sat alone.

he let the ship caost through the atmosphere, the hull of the hisp glowing to a nere white hot. He had his arms crossed as he looek dout the view screen at the barren waist growing ever close. As he sat he mind once agian began to bend and twist. The pain was immince but he sat through it as though nothign was hapening. He had felt pain before. He knew what it was like to not understand what you were, or yur purpose. Slowly though, over the last few years wa s he only able to fit a few more peaces of his puzzle toghether. The picture though was blurred.
He looked over his shoulder at Nini. She looked liek a cowering little girl. He sighed. One of the peaces that had fallen into place was compassion. He unfolded his arms and placed them on the rests, folding his glofed fingers over the edge, flexing them as he struggled for the right words. He looked up at the view screen and reached out to type out a command. The ship slowly stopped and hovered hihg in the air form the surface. He sighed as he stood. He turned out of the seat and walked over to the girl. His durasteel soled boots clanged on the ships floor surgfacing.
"Nini..." He sighed again as he squated down infornt of her and removed his mask so she coudl look him in the eyes. "Nini...if you honostly feel your skills in combat are adequete, then fine, I won't force you to train. Still, i have other business here...and i may need your help. Please?" He offered out his hand to her, a small soft smile atempting to play on his face. He wondered why he had ever covered up this side of him. Why was it so necesarry to cut your feelings of compassion and kindess to be a Sith?

She stared deep into the darkness of her own mind for consolation and found nothing of the sort. Whilst contemplating lowering the space and flying into space and oblivion a voice spoke; it startled her badly, her head rising and her eyes opening wide, red and wet from sobbing. At first she thought it was all in her head like so many things she hears, not real, just one of many side affects of having a broken mind. But it was real. There was Aryx... consoling her... 'Either he's plotting killing me... or he's felt compassion...' She blinked the wetness from her eyes and listened to him continue in a tone way too soft for a heartless killer, for a Sith. Her head gently tilted as she listened. She could see his face clearly and took it in, drinking into her long term memory the contours, the color, the scars.
Scars... maybe he has felt pain...he will learn soon of the power held in understanding more that should be known... if he can handle it...' She had seen him, noticed his minor movements caused by his mind attempting to accept its new state. Her eyes narrowed curiously and he extended his hand to her; an offer she had seldom recieved without some kind of attack following, but in her softness and pain she accepted it, reaching out and taking it, rising once more to her full height, Train me, please. I know your heart, whether you know you have one or not, is in the right place." She paused in thought, her brow furrowing, then continued in a lighter tone, "I have nowhere else to go, and I have accepted you as my Master. I have no interest in returning to the hell from whence I came. I think you have things that you can teach me. I came from hell, so make me a demon."

He smiled, this one a bit more twsited. It was not of his nature though. So mabey it was the chaos in his mind, or parhaps it was the way the scars looked in the light. Either way he looked trully sinister. He placed his ask back over his face and strode over to the pilots consel, his robes billowing behind him. He threw out the tails to sit more comfertably as he took manual controle of the controle and brought it speedign toward the serface. He flew the ship only several feet fromt eh surface, flying nap of the earth. Quickly they came to the entrance of a valley, the sides of the interior carved away into now crumbling statures, graves, and monolithik structures.

But it amounts to the same thing don't you think." K'tana barked and Renii knodded her head the the side. In her 20 years with him she had learned so many things about communication. " she quickly chnaged the topic. "I've been around thieves and smugglers all my life. I make it a point to discover liars. There are telltale signs. Voice, facial expression, body language. You'vce shown none of them. But the one thing that gives it away you have little control over, smell. All species with the exception of a few give off sweat, and pheremones. It's natural and not related to anything in particular. But then a keen sense of smell can detect that. Adrenaline, caution, happiness, sadness, sypathy, apprihension, and awe, they all have distinct smells. I don't know what you currently smelling like but K'tana is a bit pertubed. Your smell doesn't fit. So now I'm going to askk nicely. And mostly out of curiosity. What are you hiding?"Renii leaned back in her chair and smiled. "By the way, you did do a very good job hiding what ever it is. Congratulations."

"we'il just have to fight it out then, Dammit! Kal Skirata help us." Dar Dha shouted madly "turrets ready, pilots ready, coffee ready, sir we're all systems go! the co-pilot remarked gleefully! "well go!" Dar Said........

K'tana must be well trained.Even though James was quite shocked by her question, he still had a feeling that it was going to be asked. After all, people are understandably cautious when they let strangers onto their ship. I can tell you that I am trained in using the force, which I was hiding. Force sensitivity isn't quite the thing that you want to parade in front of the Republic. I didn't tell you about this, because, you didn't really ask me about it when we left.James was being cautious not to tell her anything about his mission, or about who he was trained by. James deemed that kind of information unessecary and irrelevant in this situation. And besides, he could really change his story about why he needed to go to Rori.

"I've known him all my life literaly. We have...a connection of sorts. I believe it had some relation to the force. But alot of it is due to instinct and trust." She paused "And your perfectly right, I didn't ask. I don't blame you for hiding the force. I you let the Jedi they'd probably be on your case to risk life and limb for the Order right now. It seems they have lost a fiew talented wielders recently. I left so quickly because I needed a purpose for a while and you provided one." She looked at the saber on her belt and raised it. "I told you I wasn't technicly a Jedi. Thats true, I find the shierk away from the power they could posses. I was trained to embrace the force as one entity not divided by light or dark. My master Zeth Korr was killed. This is what I have left." Barley noticing K'tana's nudge she flicked the saber in her hand and ignited it casting a red glow over the room. After all her reaserch at the temple and pouring over files she had uploaded she had an answer. With a tinge of pride she finished. "This saber belonged to the late Master Alron who betrayed the order and turned Sith. It is a beautiful weapon." she added as an after statment. It hurt her that she had never reached saber trainging under her brief training with Zeth. The saber was almost a mocking reminder of what she had failed to accomplish. Now the Nuetral Force users were dead and her possible paths we reduced she had but two choices.

You say you aren't a jedi, but did the Order think you were one?James thought it was quite odd that they would just let someone wander about in their temple, especially after what Renii said about losing a few "talented wielders". James readjusted his sitting in the chair, crossing his left leg over the right. He began to become more concerned about Renii, and moreover, concerned about his own safety when he was around her. James thought that it would be a good idea to change the subject about their pasts, incase he accidentally leaked some information about his mission with Rori. So anyway, how much further do you think Rori is from here?

So anyway, how much further do you think Rori is from here? "My Master had many friends amoung the jedi thier at the time. It was by their request that I was given a place to stay. But then he left and was killed on Korriban. The Jedi are in confusion. The uprising at Rori is troubling them. They were seriously considering sending a team right before I left. I stayed low and kept my personality cool. I could have asked for a place I guess, but I have no wish to now." Renii shrugged and her eyes glinted. "Before I met Zeth I was searching for the Sith. I think...I think I will return to that search." She patted K'tana absently and looked at the navigation display. "On your second question, an half hour at most to get there. Then I'll send our the ships drones to find a clear way in. My ship is know for out running persuers. It's likly I might pick up unwanted company entering though whatever customes the planet has left."
