Temple - Wastes of Mandalore
Elyria laughed a throaty laugh Indeed!.... It's really quite lovely, Thank you She held it up and watched the rays of light it shone around the room, Making a small curtsey as she bowed her head. And how are you named Master Droid? She straightened and swept her long copper hair to one side as she unfastened the locket around her neck and slid the ring onto the chain before tucking it into the bodice of her garment. She smiled at the droid awaiting his response.

Coruscant - Speeder to Temple
As Zara climbed into the speeder, she realized how surreal this moment was. When she thought she had reached her lowest point, that she had lost everything and was destined to the life of a petty criminal on the run, she was picked up by a high ranking Sith Lord and currently being taken to see the Emperor? This seemed like the kind of thing she read about in stories, not something that happened to her. She found it hard to believe, and yet it was happening to her.
Perhaps this could be one of the best things that had ever happened to her.
So when will my training start?
Zara was eager to learn, eager to be able to tap into the latent power that he said was within her.
But he didn't have any time to answer, as Zara felt a strange prickle on her spine, as if someone were watching them. She turned around and all she had to do was lift up one hand to point at the three bounty hunters that were now pursuing them in speeders. Likely friends or partners with the thugs he had killed.
It appears we've made some new enemies.

Coruscant - Speeder dogfight en route to the Sith Temple
"Well, this'll be interesting. How's your aim?" He said, chuckling maliciously.
With a flick of his wrist, a turret folded out on the back of the speeder and the central chair spun around.
"Oh how I loathe blasters, but, as far as they go destroying mobile enemies, they can be fun."
He started laughing louder now as he ducked and dived through the traffic, doing near-impossible barrel rolls and turns, with the bounty hunters not giving up the chase.
He ignited his lightsaber and swiftly cut down a thug in a speeder attempting to get along side him.
"Zara! Sharpen up! Use your aggressive feelings and shoot those bastards out of the sky!" He yelled with a grin through the whistling dry air of the Coruscant skyline.
::If she can kill them without hesitation, she will be promising indeed::

Coruscant - Speeder dogfight
My... aim, sir? Not sure. A teacher once told me I had the sharpest eyes in the galaxy during target practice, but I've never fired at anything moving... or living.
Zara felt almost honored to be trusted with the seat, but she wasn't sure if she would be competent enough. But this kind of apprehension she did not want to show in front of him, and she sat herself down at the turret, gritting her teeth and clutching the handles for dear life as the vehicle rolled and took sharp turns.
She missed her first few shots out of nervousness, but she took his advice and channeled this fear into aggression, and was able to send two of the others spiraling, their vehicles crashing and exploding into buildings. Her face was devoid of emotion as she watched them burn. She didn't know them, so what did she care?
Unfortunately, they had attracted the attention of many others and before she knew it they were being tailed by ten other men. Zara continued firing at them, able to blast most of them away, but it seemed that every time she killed one another took his place.
There's too many of them. We're being swarmed.

Coruscant - Temple - Throne Room
Ka'all had expected the Emperor to be strong, but he was confident in his years of being the Master of the Temple of Martial Arts. He was finding out now that his confidence may have been misplaced. Bolts of lightning struck wildly around the room, shattering marble and stone, sending deadly missles flying in all directions. Blood was flowing freely now as his robes had been shredded. Pulling on the rage of the darkside, Master Ka'all Endar met rage with rage. Gritting his teeth, he sent a massive force push into the center of the storm that was the Emperor, disrupting his intense attack and causing him to stop to catch his balance. Darkness fell over the room as the lightning suddenly ceased, causing both opponents to go momentarily blind.
From out of the darkness erupted a single blue line, fighting back the blackness and announcing the arrival of a Je'daii lightsaber. With blinding speed, the blue line crashed down on the last known spot where the form of evil had stood, but the weapon got no satisfaction. Crashing into the marble and durasteel floor, Ka'all suddenly turned to the side, missing being split in two by a hair's breath. Malicious laughter echoed as the single crimson line backed away and then extinguished throwing the room into darkness once more save the bright blue of the Je'daii Master's lightsaber. "Quit hiding in the shadows coward!" Ka'all screamed into the blackness, "Fight me like a man!" "Now why should I do that?" came the mocking response, "You came into my home to destroy me, why should I play by whatever rules you think I should abide?"
Suddenly a blaze of crimson burst out from behind Endar as he turned to meet the threat, throwing his lightsaber at the shadow before him. Too late, he realized he had been tricked as the lightsaber flew through the shadow to stick into the wall behind. With a grunt, the Je'daii master felt the blow to the back of his neck and began his decent to the floor and the peace of sleep.

Mandalore - Screaming phoenix
Davth sat there mind racing, he regained some composure, some since of self sense his lashing out on his friend and fellow jedi. "I am not myself, this is clear. Or is it more opaque like a dancers silken vestments. Hey there it is a spark of my own self, not enough I am drowning in the sea of this.... this invader." his voice was monotone, more of his thoughts aloud. "It must have been the holocron... I can think of nothing else..."

The droid gave a grinding sound followed by a high pitched squeel. It went on for a whole minute before it actually said anything.
"This unit has no name. But if it must have one, then you can refer to it as Star."

Coruscant - Jail CellWithout anything to do, Skandar started doing a strange song & dance (Ignore the 1st 45 seconds)). He actually did it quite well for a man. The guards watching the cells stopped their gambling session a moment to watch and then started yelling at him to shut up. Skandar ignored them and kept making a racket.

Coruscant - Speeder Battle
Uh-oh, they're swarming us!
"Impressive! They've amassed numbers!" Esuritio couldn't help but laugh at how helpless these thugs were going to be.
"Zara, take the wheel! I'll demonstrate what power you'll be able to command!"
They hurriedly switched positions and Esuritio stood on the back of the speeder, balancing himself with the force.
Blaster shots whizzed past, not phasing him as he retained his calm expression. "Fools!"
He raised both his hands and reached out with the Force, grasping the speeders, stopping them in their tracks. He slowly clenched his fist, the metal that composed the chassis of the speeders splinting.
"Now die!" He yelled and threw his hands to the side, launching the speeders into the buildings to the side.
"Zara, take the gun, more will be coming!"

Temple - Wastes of Mandalore
She curtseyed once again..."then Star it is.. .. it seems to me you need an upgrade Star...how long have you been at the Temple?
Suddenly her head began to swim...the room around her seemed to be rotating fast...then faster still...suddenly she saw only darkness as she crumpled in a heap to the ground......
When she awoke..moments later..her mouth dry..her eyes slowly adjusting to the light...she saw the droid Star standing over her as if nothing had happened. She got up slowly, pushing up by her arms, her hair falling to the side "What..was..I felt..a strange disturbance in the Force... She grasped the locket around her neck..the one that held the pictures of her parents "something is..wrong...terribly wrong... When she was finally able to stand..leaning against the AI console, she flipped open her comm link.."Stone here - calling the Phoenix..Kad..Kad...are you there...did you sense that..Kad...come..in"

Coruscant - Speeder Battle
Zara wasn't sure how to react when he offered her the wheel, but there was no time to argue. She sat herself down and took the controls, her head seeming to swirl at all of the buttons and switches.
She had never flown one of these vehicles before, and her steering was awkward and choppy. Tears from the wind blurred her vision and she had to veer sharply in both directions several times as they narrowly avoided crashing into skyscrapers.
I'm not a good driver, I think we ought to change positions agai-- hey, what are you doing? You shouldn't stand there! It's dangerous!
Was he mad? Standing on the edge of the speeder like that, and with her terrible driving, he could fall off!
But he didn't even seem to waver...
What kind of power was this?
She could only watch in awe as he destroyed the other speeders with ease. A slow grin spread across her face. It made her tremble with anticipation of what kind of power she could have if she only learned how to control it.
How long was your training? How long do you think it will take before I can use the Force in that way? she asked curiously as they switched positions yet again. Zara couldn't help but be grateful that she was manning the turret yet again; she felt much more comfortable at the gun. There was a bit of a lull before the others arrived, but of course they did. She continued to blast at them mercilessly, and with her aim, she rarely missed a shot.

Screaming Phoenix - Mandalore
Kad looked away from the twi-lek sith as he heard Davth rouse from unconciousness. Kad walked over to his friend.
"So you're awake..." Suddenly Kad was hit by a disturbance in the Force that made him dizzy but he stood his ground. "...I-i see."
Looking down at Davth "you feeling like your self again?"
As Kad was starting to wonder what had happened the Com in the cockpit started to beep. "I'll be back Davth... behave yourselves you two...". Walking back up to the communications board Kad answered "Master Jusik here, You ok Master Stone?"

Mandalore - Screaming phoenix
"Less like the thing I was is more appropriate." his voice was still monotone, legs crossed, and eyes closed. His mind was racing, trying to stave off the attacks from the dark side presence that was slowly beginning to take over more and more of his personality, and his body."Do hurry old friend, we would not want another incident."

Temple - Wastes of Mandalore
" Kad..Thank Goodness...I'm fine..it's just...did you feel that? It's bad..I know it is....do you have any idea what it was?" there were small beads of sweat forming on her upper lip and she felt feverish..the unease in her heart growing...taking a deep breath and slowly releasing it she felt a little calmer...."I'll be wrapping things up here shortly...there is a sandstorm coming, I hope to avoid it...but I may have to wait it out here..please open up the hatch so I may call my speeder when the time comes. Have you received the co-ordinates of the Temple? I will need to bring the scholars back from Tython - there is much to study here ...I have recovered the..uh..item...I think Master Endar will be pleased... as she spoke his name a chill went thru her and his face flashed in her memory"I..Stone out She flipped her comm closed, tapping it to her chin before slipping it into her pocket, bumping the case inside "the Holocron..that's what it is...even in it's case the Force is so strong it's throwing me off balance..smiling she reached into her pack ..she took out one of the cortosis gloves and reached into her pocket, she slipped the case into the glove "That should provide a little better protection"
Turning to Star"Come with me Star...I'd like to check the armory now"

"As as as as you wish." It statered, a spark flew out of its neck. Its more than apparent that this model has not had matenace for some time. It then turned around and began walking out of the room.
