Selkisto looked at the three ancient blades, surprised that they had survived so many decades. "I'll keep all of them, then. I'll learn one and two weapon fighting-" his excited look was quickly drowned as he let reality take hold again. "Well, at your discretion... if you can. Whichever best suits you. Or none at all. I don't want to waste your time." He eyed the lightsaber handles with a kind of awe. Somehow, certainly not through the work of his own senses, he was able to feel the power that remained in them.

On the way back, she retrieved her pack from her stolen AT-ST, and discarded her stormtrooper armor, leaving it in the walker. She then piloted the AT-ST back to the perimeter, and hailed communications, stating that she had captured the walker.
Getting out of the walker, she smiled and grinned from the hatch before coming down, and re-uniting with Neb, Ganil and the others. "I brought some toys back," she said to Neb, with a sigh of relief.

"Selk, few people are known to be able to use a lightsaber without the benefit of the force. Only very gifted people are even given that chance. Its a simple problem of the fact you''d probably hurt yourself more than someone else. If this was a vibroblade, I''d readily accept, but these are not the usual weapon. I''d almost say yes to a lightsaber, but these.... No. I believe that they belong where all jedi artifacts belong. They are historical pieces. However, I do have something that may interest you," Neb stated very plainly.
He reached onto his back of his robes, unstitching a pocket which housed another lightsaber.
"Take this. Its nothing fancy, nothing historical. Just a spare. I was planning on getting a longer saber anyway, possibly a two-hander. or maybe just dropping down to a dueling saber and be done with it. Give me some time to consider your request. The only condition is that the three you have in your possession go to the Praxium on Yavin, where Skywalker can deal with the history, and you use that one saber I gave you. At the moment, I do not know what I should do, as I still have two padawans to train, as well as the artifacts, and this agression by the late senator. Give me some time, and I will tell you my answer."
Neb sighed, still sitting on the wall.
"Go and find my padawans, they should be coming back soon enough. I should have an answer by then."

Selkisto stood and replaced the sabers on his belt, thinking it over. "Yes, alright..." he added with a grin, "Master Neb."

Mordranna walked into the area as Selkisto said that, and declared, "Just call him Neb, otherwise, he'll make you recite the Jedi code one hundred times. Or was that a thousand?"
She then looked to Neb, and stated, "I had one hell of a day."

"Well, selk, seems your answer might come sooner than I expected..."
Neb turned to Mordranna. "Sounds like it. Figure you probably won't top mine, but do tell what you've learned."

Angel was suprised to watch her saber be so easily destroyed. After landing from her jump, she said, " Impressive. That attack would've crippled your ability to defend against further attacks had it succeeded, but you turned my most desicive attack into my biggest weakness and turned this entire duel to your favor. You are indeed a worthy opponent. " As Mordranna began to walk away, Angel said, " The next time we battle, I hope it can be on more friendlier terms. You'd make a great sparring partner. " Suddenly, Angel receives the message to retreat. Using her levitate power to call her destroyed saber to her, she runs off towards the Eclipdra, guided by sensing the Dark Lord's presence through the Force.

Drako slammed his fist into the side pannel.
" DONT TRY AND TELL ME YOU DID ANY THING BUT SUFFER LOSSES!!!! Your ships are crippled, your forces are nothing......YOU HAVE NOTHING!!!!!"
Drako screamed into the comm.
" I will not stand by while a fool like you tries to think he is Sith. If you think you can run this....THEN DO IT!!! I got in a fight with a Master....Neb. He didnt kill me....but he let one of his die by my hand....he even made me kill one of my brothers. "
Drako felt sorrow....almost.
" I NEVER SAID ANY THING ABOUT LEAVING YOUR FORCES!!! I am just getting the slag out of here. Now....i think i might have a plan....but i will need some thing. Were is your ship?"

Mordranna nodded to Neb. "There's not a lot to tell. By the time I got there, it seemed that our wookie friends managed to mount an effective resistance. And, I can't say that the quality of troops in that particular area were the Empire's best," she said with a derisive shake of her head. "I 'borrowed' some armor from a rookie, which is where I got this spiffy belt," she said with a grin, pointing at her souvenir. "And, I even managed to commandeer an AT-ST to stir even more confusion in the ranks."
Without missing a beat, she continued. "However, this did not go unnoticed by Imperial command. I then encountered a Sith, the apprentice to Imperious. Darth Valycia is her name. Still," Mordranna paused, reflecting on their conversation, "I couldn't help but notice something about her aura in the Force."
When Neb asked what she meant by that, she continued. "Well, I felt a strange hint of light. I'll grant you that it wasn't much, but something we could work with, perhaps?" she concluded that tanget with a hint of a hopeful look. "Also, she's very good with a lightsaber." She soberly commented with a faint smile, her demeanor showing a clear respect for her opponent's abilities. "She kept me on the defensive most of the time, that's for sure."
And, then, favoring Neb with a bigger smile, "And, I suspect that your training, particularly in the speed technique of the Force, is the only reason I'm here to tell you about it. Thank you, Neb." She then took a bow.
"I saw my chance when she tossed her saber. With a dodge, I intercepted it, and then sliced the weapon in half. And that's about it. I also commend her graciousness in defeat."

Angel had arrived at the Eclipdra, and came to the Dark Lord and Drako as they seemed to be arguing. Without disturbing them, she went over to a table where she laid down her saber, looking to see if it could be repaired, or if it needed to have any parts salvaged and make a new one. She began to think to herself, " That Mordranna... Why couldn't I bring myself to attack with everything I had? Why did I hold back? I could've won that duel had I not held back. Why couldn't I do it? "

Ganil finally awoke from his unconsciousness to find himself in what appeared to be a Wookie-style medical room of some sort, walls, floor, and ceiling all made of wood, as was just about everything else in the room.
"What... nngh!" A strong shot of pain spasmed throughout his entire body.
"" came a Wookie voice.
"W... what happened?"
"" The Wookie came into view. It was Commander Grwyynab.
"Uh... oops?" Ganil said weakly.
""
"Well, what doesn't kill you," he winced as another spasm jolted through his body, "makes you stronger, right?"
"" Grwyynab chuckled.
"Speaking of Juggernauts, that was cool what General Tunnakuu did back there," Ganil said.
""
"What happened after I was knocked out?"
"" Grwyynab looked out the window and sighed. ""
Ganil managed to nod a little.
Grwyynab looked at the setting sun. ""
"Yes, I should..." After trying to get up with much trouble, Grwyynab walked over and helped him up. He handed him a crutch. "Thanks," Ganil said.
Grwyynab bowed. ""
"The name's Ganil." Ganil smiled back at Grwyynab before walking back to the others.

"There are many things to learn in that fight. But, you came out well enough, and so far, the agressors are quite embarassed, with two of three users losing their sabers. But don't try and flatter me with comments on how my training allowed you to succeed. Flattery is something I avoid. Now to be appropriate, it was not my training that allowed me to live, but your knowledge and adept use of it that did. You could have been taught by the weakest knight, and another padawan by great master Yoda himself, but unless you use what you've been taught, you won't succeed."
Neb watched as night sped onward.
"I believe we have much work to do, in both force powers and lightsaber skills. If you wish to follow form III, then you may stick around longer, but the rest, you must change to a different master."
Neb mused for a minute, searching for his lightsaber, but realising he gave both of his away.
"Seems I'm weaponless... I've given Drako my first one, and Selk my other... But that is not any matter. One thing I must comment on, and I hope you take it to heart, if you haven't already. Anyone can be redeemed, as you've seen in the apprentice of the late senator. They can convert, but if they wait till their final hour, then thier hope is lost. Try your hardest to make them realise this, but never let your guard down more than a moment at best."
Neb stared at the sky, as he finally got up, and slowly walked down the stairs back to the main road which would lead back to the ship.
"Now comes the time which I have been dreading. I know you can feel it, I don't know if you recognise it. I must speak with Skywalker... He's waiting for us in the hangar of the MC80B cruiser up there. I don't wish to keep him waiting too long..."

"So I lost a few droids? Big Deal, I'll churn out double as many in the next week. I lost some battleships? Not really, only one will need to be scrapped, the others will just need some touching up. My goal was a succcess Prime. Yours was not. Now, if you'll just follow me, we'll be off."
Imperius transmited co-ordinates, and then made the jump to hyperspace.
"Angel...you're progress is incredible. You are trul, a Dark Lady of the Sith."

Drako felt it again. This time he could hear the Jedi speaking.
Now, run to your master. Learn from him, or kill him. He put up more of a challenge than you ever could. Maybe one day, you can control your rage.....you can see our path through the forest, and the armies slaughtered by your saber. Next time you fight me, be prepared. I want to see improvement......
" .......Improvement.....I WILL SHOW YOU IMPROVEMENT!!!!!!!!"
Drako slammed out of the regan chamber. Parts of the door flying all about the ship. Drako stepped out and his exoskeleton emiting force lightning that was not do any damage to the ship. Just clinging to the places near him.
" I am SSSSSSSSSSITH.....i will not be taken lightly! PR1M3, take us to the co-ordinates. But do not any one know we are going.....not even Imperius. I will have what is MINE!!! HK......the time has come."
PR1M3 made the jump. Drako did nothing but meditate(SP?).
(( FP if you would please PM i need to talk to you.))

"Kashyyk was a success. We have succesfully shamed Drako, and maybe now he will ease up a little. I have found the first key to finding Revan. And I have succesfully trained you, Lady Valycia."
((I'll give DA a chance to post, and then Sith story is over.))
