Welcome to Gaia! ::

Planet Kaldera:

Glacian and Jessica had exited the ship to find that there was already a 'welcoming party' closing in on them, hover tanks and other war machines already within fireing range, yet they did not.

"This is just getting to weird," Glacian said as he reached out again with his senses. There was still notihng telling him why they had not be shot from the sky when they were just about to be.

Once they were surronded by the forces, one of them opened its hatch and out came a incredibly large lizard like being. It had to be at least 8 feet tall, if not more. The creature was dressed in so far as Jessica and Glacian could tell, some form of military dress, armor in this case, though it looked like it was carved with runes and other markes of tribal signifigance. The creature had a draconic appearance to it, though it had some other, more lizard and reptile like features to it as well, and no wings to speak of. "Jedi?" Was all the creature said in a deep, rumbling voice.

"Yes," Glacian said carefully as he thought for a minute about his saber,and possibly force shoving the hover tanks on to their sides and making an escape through the Raptor, but thought better of it, the escape route was clogged with half an armada and 3 moons with cannons powerful enough to take out half of those ships in one shot. Not a good place to be. "What is it you want with us? And why did you attack us? And further more, why the sudden change in that whole killing us plan?"

The creature gave a slight sigh and shook it's head, "We must apologize for that, you see, we like our solitude here, hardly ever is there a non-military ship that wanders these parts. We were acting in intrests of self defense and the preservation of our world's way of life. But we once again we apologize for our actions. If you would follow us, we can take you to a place where everything with be explained in due time." The creature motioned to the hatch of the tank he had just exited through, meaning for Glacian and Jessica to enter.

"Not much choice inthat decision is there?" Glacian said as he and Jessica climbed into the hover tank, seeing that already, the Raptor was being hooked up to be towed somewhere. It looked like they were at the will of these reptilian species, may the force help them...

Guran took the cubes and said, "I will practice in the cargo room, and I will return when I am done." Guran then headed into the cargo room at the back of the ship and began his practice.

Seraph had been in deep thought while Guran was away, and seemed to come out of a trance when the Gungan returned. "Very good. It appears you have damaged the boxes. Very good indeed. Try your best to get out of my grip." Seraph felt out with the Force and picked Guran up, choking him harder than he ever had before.

Seraph felt the Force pushing strongly against his own body. However, he was more powerful than Guran, and was able to keep his concentration, if barely. He scowled and dropped the Gungan, though he could have held him for much longer. "That was an interesting idea. But you will not always be able to do that against someone else choking you as I did. There are stronger Sith than I in the Galaxy, and you may not be able to move at all under the pressure of their Force abilities. I hope you realize that, for your own sake, Gungan. You need to expect the unexpected." Seraph suddenly threw his arm out and used the Force to throw Guran against the side of the cockpit.

The Iridonian nodded. "Good. Your life may depend on how much you expect out of your opponent. And do not strive for my power. Strive to become better. Hate me for how much stronger I am than you. Use your hate to make you more powerful. You should fear me, and use that also, to your advantage." Without warning, Searph threw his fist out, straight towards Guran's face.

Seraph grinned and gasped at the same time. His apprentice was learning. He flipped to the side, in just the right direction to relieve the unnatural twist in his arm as Guran hit the air with his fist. "Impressive. That hurt." Seraph ripped his arm from th Gungan's grip and swung his elbow around and nailed Guran's back.

Seraph dropped to the ground to avoid the second kick. Almost as soon as he hit the ground, hepushed off and flipped up to his feet. Immediately after touching the ship's floor, he used the Force to push Guran back, harder than he ever had before. Everything in the cockpit seemed to move at the effect of the Force.

Seraph reached out and mustered as much Force as he could. His apprentice knew a technique he did not; and a useful one at that. He used the Force he had gathered to push back against his reflected attack andmanaged to lower the impact on himself. He skidded back two, nearly three, meters and almost toppled over backward. "Very impressive. I think we will stop for a few hours. I would like to have some time to meditate and think." Seraph made his way back to his seat and sat back, closing his eyes.
