RPG Star Wars: The New Threat

[Jagan]

Jin scouts the area. He sees no trace of what he's looking for.

Jin: Where's that Trade Ship? I hate it when this happens.

Jin detects something on his radar. A Trade Federation ship. Jin flies there.

[Ryo]

Ryowa admires the castle for a bit and walks around the town to look for a place to sleep.

Ryowa: Hmm....what place should I get.

Ryowa: "King's Fit"..Looks expencive.

Ryowa walks in the hotel.

Man: Hello Sirrrrrr.

Ryowa: Uhhh...hello. How much is this place for a one night stay?

Man: 2.000 credits.

Ryowa: Uhhh....pricey...pricey...pricey....Here.

Ryowa gives the man 2.000 credits. Gets his key and goes to his room.

Ryowa opens the door: WHOA!!!!!

The room was fit for a king.

Ryowa: This place is huge...Look at tha TV.

The TV almost covered the whole wall.

Ryowa: Gotta take a shower first.

Ryowa took a shower. Then he watched the TV for a while. And fell into a deep...deep..sleep.

[color=indigo]OOC: Okay, this is getting quite ridiculous...I don't care if you don't want to battle me, Saiyan Metroid, but please, at least acknowledge that you read my post. This is an RPG, you need to at least try and be on the same page as the rest of us![/color]

[Yoda]

[I]The large doors of the Jedi Council closed behind Craig and Andrew. They were in quite a large room, there were no sentries... the Jedi didn't need them. There was another master / apprentice duo to the left of the room. Craig acknowledged them quickly with a nod. He proceeded to the back of the room, Andrew almost jogging behind him at the pace he was walking.

The Jedi temple consisted of 5 towers. The centre tower was where the Jeci council stayed... and this was where Craig and Andrew were. The only other thing in this main tower was the "trial room" where one of the final trials of a padawan learner took place. It was the Jedi's most sacred place. There were 4 smaller towers the were placed at 2, 5, 8, and 10 o' clock around the main tower. One was for training groups of toddler padawans, this was by far the busiest of the towers, there wer quite a lot of toddlers in the galaxy. Another was the battle arena, where Jedi were allowed to spar with each other. There were several padawan rooms (which were divided by age), but all the Jedi Knight rooms were all identical, anyone could go into any room. This was Andrew and Craig's favorite room without question. Andrew often enjoyed watching his master battle..... of course, regardless of how much he wished to test his strength against Jedi Knights, he knew he could only fight padawans in his age group. Craig had never been beaten in a spar, and Andrew had only lost once. The other temple was for studying, it contained Jedi archives, and all the ancient books of prophecy. The final temple contained the dormitories...... this tower actually hada huge area underneath it where most of the dorms lay, only the council's bed, and the most respected Jedi member's beds were above ground.

Craig continued up the long flight of stairs, upto the council's room. Klarna's lightsabre was strapped tightly to his belt..... that was his main motive for coming there...... that and the disturbance.[/I]

[Guest QuickSilver]

Deep with the heart of one of the four outer temples, Seifer was honing his skills against a fellow Padawan and a great friend. The two of them were born on the same day and since then they have been good friends. both of the Padawan's are training of the up and coming test to become a Jedi Knight. These two Jedi's have had many battles in the past and somehow Seifer has always had the advantage over the two but this time his opponent Jin-Ali-Mundi thinks he can finally beat Seifer. Although they keep battling eachother the two of them don't have a gruge towards the other, the battle's have been mainly for their trainers purposes. The farther of Jin is the Jedi knight Ki-adi-Mundi and the farher of Seifer is none other than the great Mace Windu, these tow want to test who has been the better training to their sone and there is a great sence of pride riding on the father, who's son his the winner. THe two master's are not with them rigth now because Seifer and Jin chose to be alone for this final battle before they both go off for their test. they have been battling for an hour before Craig and Andrew entered the Jedi temple, neither of the Jedi's show any sign of fatigue and there is no clear winner at this point.

Seifer: *thinks to himself* i can feel the presance of Craig withing the temple, but i cant feel if Andrew is here, he must be afraid, either that or Craigs force is so strong it is over shadowing Andrews. I must go check this out, i must finish the fight.

Jin swung his bright yellow light sabre at Seifer's sparkly silver one, causing sparks to fly on impact.

Jin: whats the matter your mind somewhere else. i want to beat you when you are in total forcus on the match, not when you are day dreaming.

Seifer: believe me,i am totally forcused on this match.

Jin struck at Seifer low, the attack was easily bloked and Seifer quickly counter attacked which sent Jins light sabre out of his hand across the room.

Seifer: looks like i win my friend.

Jin: not yet.

Jin put out his hand and with the power of the force he drew the light sabre back t his hand and quickly raised it into the air to attack Seifer. Knowing what was going to happen seifer drew out his gold light sabre and used it to bloke the attack, as he used his silver one to strike the chest of Jin, giving him a quick chilling shock throughout his entire body, sending him down onto his knees.

Seifer: now i win.

Seifer the quickly rushed towards the exit of the room. with a smug grin on his face as he just finally proved,that he was the better of the two.

[Break]

[SIZE=1][b]Sideous:[/b] Before I tell you the plan, recite to me and Jekkan the Sith Code.

[b]Razar:[/b] Wha...? Oh..

[b]Sideous:[/b] NOW!

[b]Razar:[/b] ...

There is no peace, there is anger.
There is no fear, there is power.
There is no death, there is immortality.
There is no weakness, there is the Dark Side.
I am the Heart of Darkness.
I know no fear,
But rather I instill it in my enemies.
I am the destoyer of worlds.
I know the power of the Dark Side.
I am the fire of hate.
All the Universe bows before me.
I pledge myself to the Darkness.
For I have found true life,
In the death of the light.

... there, done.

[b]Sideous:[/b] Good, your heart is still grafted into the Dark Side.

[b]Razar:[/b] Yes master.

[b]Sideous:[/b] My plan will succeed this time, Jekkan will not die like that Klarna did. His talent died with his age, he was dropping from the reality that is the Dark Side.

[b]Razar:[/b] ...!

[i]In an instant Razar had gotten out his lightsabre, but as if his master had predicted this action, Sideous whipped out his lightsabre and engaged the beam close to Razar's neck before Razar could engage his beam.[/i]

[b]Sideous:[/b] HOW DARE YOU!!

[b]Razar:[/b] You insulted my master.

[b]Sideous:[/b] Klarna is not your master. Klarna is [i]dead[/i], likewise you will be too if you don't keep your anger in. I am your master, Razar, and Jekkan is your trainer. [i]Never[/i] forget, I can predict your actions way before you do them. I do not want to waste any more of my time with this rookie.. Jekkan take him back to the Sith's quarters and tell him the plan.

[b]Jekkan:[/b] Yes master.

[b]Sideous:[/b] And Razar, take some time to train with your new master, he could teach you a thing or two about making your attacks quicker. Ha ha ha!

[b]Razar:[/b] ... Yes... [i]master[/i].[/SIZE]

[Heaven's Cloud]

[color=indigo]Xander's light saber glowed silver in inches from Jin's face. Jin's eye glowed with hatred.

Xander: well Jin, it looks like this will be the end for you.

Jin, draws out his lightsaber

Jin: Don't be so sure Jedi!!!

Jin slashes downward, but Xander deflects his blade by striking upward and then counters, slashing downward. The light trail looks like two pine needles, connected at the bottom. Xander turns off his lightsabre and walks away. Jin moans as the top half of his body slides off of the bottom half at a 15 degree angle.

Xander: That Sith was pathetic!!! We have Paddawan toddlers that would have put up as good of a fight.

Xander heads towards the Jedi temple to seek council with Master Yoda.[/color]

Saiyan_Metroid, you are now dead. You were warned too many times. Please do not post anymore in this thread.

[Yoda]

[I]Craig and Andrew appeared at the top of the stairs. They were in a corridor that went round the edge of the circular room. The was one door on the inner side of the corridor, it was a large iron foor, a huge red Jedi marking was inscribed on it. This was the door to the high chamber of the temple, where the Jedi council were seated.

The door slid open silently, revealing a large circular room. There were 12 seats placed evenly about the circumfrence of the room, and in each one of those seats, one of the council sat. In the centre seat sat the great Jedi master, wisest of the wise, Yoda. To his left of him, was Mace Windu, and to his right was Ki-Adi-Mundi. They all welcomed Craig with various gestures, but none of them spoke.

Craig motioned his hand to Andrew, telling him to stay where he was, as Craig walked to a small circle at the centre of the room. The council all stared somewhat eagerly at him.

Yoda: Welcome master Craig. What have you to say?

Craig: Yes my master. Recently, my padawan and myself encountered two Sith warriors..... Klarna and his new apprentice.

Mace: Yes, may we congratulate you on defeating the Sith Lord Klarna..... surely that was no easy task.

Craig: Indeed not..... but, I found two things of great significance there.

Ki-Adi: Ah, something about the apprentice is it?

Craig: Yes. He was easily more powerful than his master, that much was clear...... and I believe he could be turned.

Yoda: Turned do you say?

Craig: Yes my master. I believe that he held back because he did not wish to kill Andrew..... though I may be misinterpreting him, I believe there is a lot of good in him.

Mace: Have no doubt, we shall look into this. What other news do you bring?

Craig: Klarna's weapon my masters. I think you should see......

From behind Craig's back, he revealed the lightsabre that Klarna had used. He threw it into the air, and Mace summoned it into his hands.

Mace: This is a double edged lightsabre. He used this in battle?

Craig: Yes. His battle skills with it were very limited.... he was much weaker an opponent with both sides open....... but I think he was trying to help us my masters.

Yoda: Help us you say? Explain.....

Craig: Well...... no doubt you have all sensed the potent disturbance in the force. I think the Sith know more about it than we do....... and so even though we are enemies, the Sith feel we need to be ready for this opponent which could easily wipe us all out. So, I believe Klarna showed me that sabre as if to say that if we can learn to properly wield a lightsabre like that in battle..... then it would benefit us greatly.

Yoda: Ah, great wisdom is inside you master Craig.

Mace: yes, this could indeed have been their intention, even if they are our sworn enemies. Although we can never fight together, the Sith know that we must be on the same wavelength if we are to defeat the Tyrax.

Craig: The Tyrax???

Mace: Yes..... the great disturbance you feel belongs to a race known as the Tyrax.

Ki-Adi: Several months ago we sent a troop of jedi Knights to Tarash following the rumours of a strong, force willed species there.

Plo Koon: We thought it would be mere lies, because Tarash is simply a waste planet.

Yoda: Yes..... but we heard no more from the Jedi troop.

Mace: Until today, that is. We recieved all the troops heads...... and a visual link message. The species called themselves the Tyrax, and are indeed as powerful as the speculations foretold.

Ki-Adi: The Sigh's retaliated quite quickly....... senting a troop of their own men to the planet....

Yoda: But a similar fate did they suffer.

Mace: The Tyrax are already so feared, that the planets of Barkesh and Gerrard 5 have already sworn allegance to them, giving them complete control of their armies.

Ki-Aki: We anticipate something huge will escalate from this.

Suddenly, the doors to the council room burst open, and Seifer stormed in, scowling.

Mace: Son, you have not been summoned.

Seifer: Maybe so, but I just heard the news. Many of my friends were in that troop..... how could you do such a foolish thing?

Yoda: Ah, foolish it was not at the time....... expect a threat such as this, we did not.

Mace: But we do have a job, for the three of you, and several more Jedi.

Craig: I am at your service my masters.

Ki-Adi: We need to start disabling the Tyrax's allies immediately. That's why the senate are sending a fleet of craft to Barkesh to bomb a series of hangers all over the planet.

Mace: They are in need of good pilots, and you three are all especially skilled in piloting. We request that you go with the senates fleet and destroy these targets.

Craig: As you wish, me masters. But what of the Siths message?

Yoda: Ah, take heed of this we shall. Choose our best warriors, and train the, in the arts of this new sabre. You shall learn to use it Craig, when you return.

Mace: May the force be with you.

Craig: When do we leave?

Ki-Aki: Tomorrow at dawn you leave for Barkesh.

Craig: As you wish, my masters.

Seifer: As you request.

The three Jedi bowed and went to take their leave when:

Yoda: Craig...... be wary. Hunt for you Razar shall. On his mind, vengeance is. Prepare for him must you...... do not slack.

Craig: I am always prepared my master.

With that, the three Jedi took their leave. They left the room.... and stood silently for a moment. Craig could feel the tension between the two padawans.

Craig: Come Andrew, we shall spend what little time we have at the battle arena.

And with that, Craig beckoned farewell to Seifer, and started to lead Andrew back down the stairs. Just before they left Seifer's view, Craig turned and said:

Craig: Feel free to come along.[/I]

[Boba Fett]

Abobs attention had shifted from the High council chamber to the other towers.

Abob watched the young children using their practice lightsabers to fend off remotes. They were just learning, but were doing well. There was one child in the corner who was struggling, she had only deflected one stinging bolt and it had hit a blond haired boy on the other side of the room.

Then another child walked over to her, no not a child, that was Yoda. Yoda was the greatest Jedi master yet, in most peoples opinions. Abob watched as he instructed the girl, then he left the chamber and a younger jedi led the exercise.

The Abob looked into another tower. There were padawan learners, fighting with much more control and skill than the toddlers. They would strike, then defend in seemingly endless pattern.

Abob looked back to the High Council chamber. The cleaning droids were gone and people were starting to arrive for a meeting. When all the masters arrived a Jedi Knight and his apprentice stood in the middle of the room and began to speak.

As the meeting finished Abob sat in wonderment. He had not heard what the Jedi said, but he had programed his helmet to read their lips and figure out what they were saying. The news of the Jedi's defeat startled him, Jedi [I]never[/I] lost a fight, they were too good for that. These new aliens were powerful indeed.

Then Abob left the building and returned to the Idiots Array, to ponder this sudden turn of events........

[Guest QuickSilver]

Seifer stoud still in silence for a moment think to himself.

Seifer: if i take his chance i can finally prove myself in training but yet again if i lose i will lose, no one will respect me especially my father i cant take that chance even though i have an unbeaten record, Andrew as only lost one, i cant take those chances, the risks are too high. *speaks* no sorry i cant i have more important things to attend to.

Craig: thats o.k

Seifer: maybe next time Andrew

Andrew stared at Seifer for a moment then the two Jedi carried on walking, whilst Seifer went back in to talk to the council. As he pushed the doors open silence struck the room. Seifer strolled up to the center area and spoke towrds his father.

Mace: what is it that you want now my son.

Seifer: father, i request that i must be trained with the new light sabre.

Yoda: what makes you think that what you got his enough.

Seifer: father, let me prove to you and all of the council memebers i have what it takes, i promiss you will be satisfied.

Mace: tomorrow you will have that mission and if you prove yourself then and only then will we decide to train you in these new arts.

Seifer then noded his head in respect, he then quickly headed for the door and back down to the room where him and Jin-ali-mMindu were battling.

[Yoda]

[I]Craig and Andrew headed towards the battle arena tower. Andrew seemed a little distracted.

Andrew: Master.... why do you always make me fight at the battle arena? It's not to say I don't like it....... but there's a lot of pirde involved, that's why Seifer didn't come.

Craig stopped dead, then turned to Andrew sharply. There was a great look of "what the hell did you just say!" in Craig's eyes.

Craig: Andrew, thre is only pride involved if you strive to be arrogant. The only reason I take you is for practice. In this place you can adapt and learn new battle skills, to me it doesn't matter if you win or lose. It's just your childish rivalry with master Windu's boy that's made you this way.

Andrew: But master.... you have never lost there, you wouldnt know how it feels.

Craig: I have lost far greater things than just in that petty battle arena. I go there simply to improve, if someone beats me then they beat me, I move on and comgratulate the winner. That does not make them better or worse, it just means that hey beat you on this occasion. That is something that you padawans need to understand. If you are beaten in this arena, atleast you leanr, and still walk away with your life. If you fight a Sith, and he beats you, then you are finished. If you are more concerned about your reputation than your training, then there is no place for you or Seifer among the Jedi.

Craig that Craig turned swiftly and strided at great pace towards the arena. Andrew marched along behind...... he knew his master was gravely dissapointed in him at this point. They soon reached the doors of the battle arena temple. They swung open heavily, and they appeared in a room with a huge electronic chart on the wall. It showed exactly who was in which room. Andrew stopped next to Craig, looking uo at the sign.

Craig: You shall battle first....... and then so shall I.

Andrew: Very well master.

Craig led Andrew upto the padawan arena for ages 18-21. The door opened, and they came into an arena with a small stadium surrounding a gravel floored fighting arena. As was always the case, only one fight was allowed at a time.

Craig: Go and sign up, and await your turn to battle. And remember, I shall think no less of you if you lose, and no better of you if you win.

Andrew: Yes master.[/I]

[Boba Fett]

Abob sat in the Idiots Array, thinking over the events of the day. How was the republic going to deal with this threat? Would anyone, anywhere be safe? All he could think about was those aliens, somehing had to be done.

Abob finally came to a decision. He set a course for the Kessel system and went into hyperspace.

Once he had relaxed and showered he went to the weapon locker and withdrew a small datacard. He had taken this from a small time surveyor who had sold his information to the wrong people. Abob had captured him near Kessel. The man had nothing execpt his clothes and this chip. Abob had spent years de-crypting it and found that it heald some of the most amazing information.

Near Kessel there was a cluster of black holes known as the maw. The maw was a huge navigational hazard, but this surveyor had somehow discovered a way into the center of the black hole cluster. He had found a area of stability, where the black holes sucking powers cancelled each other out. The chip had the only set coordinates to get into the center of the Maw.

Abob figured that if that area wasnt safe, nowhere was............

[Ryo]

In the morning.

Ryowa: Ahhhhhhhhhhh..good sleep.

Look's at the clock.

Ryowa: 12:00!!!!!!!! I gotta go.

Ryowa gets his stuff and runs toward "Aboo's Spaceship Parts"

Man: Ahhhh...I see you came back. Look at you spaceship now.

Ryowa: That looks brand new. How much will that be?

Aboo: 200,000 credits.

Ryowa: How expensive!!!!!!

Ryowa hands the man the money and get on his ship. He turns it on and it worked like he just bought it.

Ryowa: This is amazing. Time to go to Crousent.

Ryowa sets the course for the planet Crousent and relaxes as he watches the stars ahead of him.

[Boba Fett]

The Idiots Array came out of hyperspace a parsec from Kessel. Abob landed on the spice mining world, in a illegal repair yard.

The owner of the yard was a skinny Duro named Thep. The mechanic droids that Abob had requested were waiting for him and Abob helped himself to some heavy armor plating and a concussion missle launcher that were in the hangar.

He had a long list of extensive modifications he wanted done and the droids estimated it would take a month to complete all of the modifications. After the droids were finished Abob planned to take a few bounties and then try and buy a prefab space home that they could assemble in the middle of the maw.

Abob and his kids were going to stay in a local hotel not far from the hangar. They had also bought their own speeder. They were going to be here a while, and would need regular transport.

They unpacked in their rooms and then went back to the ship to start the repairs and modifications..........

[Gavin]

[COLOR=TEAL]Could somebody give me a clue as to whats going on in this RPG so far

[i]Li walks into the battle arena for his own age group. A hush falls over everyone watching as his sparring partner stepped out into the arena. Li had never been defeated beofre, many though that because master Yoda trained him he was infintely stronger than any other padawan, a concept which had begun to annoy Li. Li threw off his cloak and drew his lightsabre, his partner did the same.[/i]

Li: Hmmm I hope this will prove a worthy challange

[i]Li begins by darting into his opponent and slashing upwards, his partner was surprised by such a move but not caught off guard as he jumped back and then stabbed at Li's chest. Li and his opponent another Jedi named Gul Raim. The two agai continued their attack on each other but neither could land a single strike.[/I]

Li: You have been a worthy opponent Gul but I am afraid I shall not toy with you any longer.

[i]Li jumps up high into the air and lands down behind Gul. Before Gul could make a move, Li sliced across his back and his opponent fell hard onto the ground........beaten. Silence echoed as Li walked back to his quarters. His golden colored lightsabre in his hand[/i][/color]

[Yoda]

[I]Just as Li was about to exit the battle arena, Craig put his hand out in front of him, blocking his exit. Craig slowly turned to face Li.

Craig: It's about time someone taught you just how beatable you are.

Li had picked just the wrong day to show off his arrogance. Craig was certainly not in the mood for such things.

Li: I cannot fight you... it is forbidden.

Craig chuckled, staring pathetically at Li.

Craig: Your not fighting me. You shall fight my apprentice. If your so arrogant that you believe you can beat a Jedi master, then this shouldn't be hard for anyone.

Andrew stepped forward, into the middle of the arena. Li smirked up at Craig, then strolled arrogantly into the arena. Both competitors drew their sabres.[/I]

[Boba Fett]

Abob got back to his ship and began to install a limited cloaking device. It would be able to cloak his ship for three hours at a time when powered by rare styaigm crystals.

Abob worked for hours to weld the cloaking unit into a nitche between the power core and the engine compartment. Finally he added some liquid metal self adhesive and watched as the liquid hardened around the weld, making it harder than the armor plating around it.

Dave and Jess were still inside the ship, trying to link the cockpit to the two four barrel anti starfighter guns that were located on each side of the Idiots Array. They had nearly finished when Abob walked in.

Abob: "How much have you done, when will you be finished?"

Dave: "Almost done, we should be finished in thirty minutes max."

Abob: "Good, I want you both to help me oversee the droids when they start to attach that Star Destroyer armor plating. I dont want them to ruin any of it, it cost me more than this ship."

Jess: "Sure, we will be out there ASAP."

Abob walked outside the ship and watched the armor plates being brought over by a loader droid. He couldnt wqait untill the refit was finished. He would have one of the best ships in the galaxy when he was finished................

[Heaven's Cloud]

[color=indigo] Xander walked down the huge hallway that connects the central tower with the fighting arena. Master Yoda hovered beside him on a chair. Xander was always astonished at the control that the ancient Jedi had, despite his advanced age, he was able to guid the chair effortlessly using the force.

Xander: I have been growing increasingly irrational since my leave from the Jedi order. My dreams are becoming more and more intense. I feel like the awnsers are right infront of me, but a huge sandstorm is blocking my path.

Yoda: Troubled times you've had, beware of the darkside, seek you out in your time of desperation, they will.

Xander: Yes master, I understand that.

Yoda: Come, you must meet my young paddawan.

Xander and Yoda traveled into the sparring arena and stopped. A small group had gathered to watch a match.

Xander: It must be a good match.

Both Xander and Yoda turned to watch.[/color]

[Ryo]

In space.

The ship's computer that Ryowa was in started beeping. That ment he was only another 30 min away from Crousent.

Ryowa: Finaly we are getting closer.

Ryowa waited patiently as he watched Crousent get bigger and bigger ahead of him.

Ryowa: Time to land.

Ryowa landed near the Jedi Counsil. He quickly went into the main building in the Counsil to see Master Yoda. He quickly see's another Jedi.

Ryowa: Errmmm..exuse me but would you know where Master Yoda would be.

Jedi: He is central tower.

Ryowa: You mean the fighting arena.

Jedi: Yes.

Ryowa: Ok thanks.

Ryowe took the elevator on which the fighting arena was on then he ran down a long hall way and went through a doorway. He then saw Master Yoda and another Jedi standing aside him. But before he even spoke...

Yoda: Ahhhh...Ryowa so good to see you again.

Ryowa: Hello master. But who is that in the battle arena?

Yoda: The one standing aside is Craig a astonishing Jedi. The one on the left is his apprentice Andrew. And the one on the right would be Li also a Jedi.

Ryowa: This must be a magnificent fight.

Yoda: Indeed. And I would like you to meet Xander beside me.

Ryowa: Im Ryowa. Pleasure to meet you.

Xander: Xander. Nice to meet you too.

All three of them stood watching the fight.

[Yoda]

[I]Craig smirked, showing anger for the first time in years, as Andrew struck Li to the ground, a shot of harsh electric current launching through Li. Andrew bowed, disengaging his lightsabre, and walked back to his master.

Xander: It seems my master, that your padawan is lacking a lot more than he thinks.

Yoda: Yes, arrogant he is... but your skills, we will now test.

Xander: My skills???

Yoda: How your skills have altered, we shall see. Fight Craig... you shall.

Craig turned towards Yoda the instant he said that, despite the fact that he stood on the other side of the arena. Turning to Xander, he walked slowly into the ring, a yellow beam extending from the handle in his left hand. Shortly after, another yellow beam extended from the handle.... in his other hand. Everyone knew Craig preffered to fight with two sabres.... and it was not against the rules... it didn't even make him any stronger, it is simply the fact that his uniqly perfected style was perfect for holding two lightsabres.

Xander was not long to follow suit. He walked into the ring, looking eye-to-eye at Craig. A silver bladed sabre shot out through Xander's handle.

The padawans cheered, this match had been speculised for so many years, and finally..... it was going to occur. The only match people would rather have seen is Yoda vs Mace.... which was even more speculated than this one.

Xander: Good luck to you Craig.

Craig: Hmm...... and to you.

With that, Craig spun the sabres round in his hands as he darted towards Xander. Xander, holding his sabre round his head, launched back at Craig. Their lightsabres clashed, as they stared one another down, pushing for dominance. Craig suddenly threw his hands forward, Xander being thrown back to the arena floor.

He hit the ground with a thud, and flipped straight back to his feet. He held his sabre out, pointing it towards Craig's eyes. Craig held both his sabres pointing out to his sides, leaving his chest open. Xander pushed forwards in a stabbing motiong, but with a sweep of Craig's sabre, he knocked it to the side. Craig hen spun, launching into a backhanded attack with the other sabre, Xander blocking easily.

Suddenly, Mace Windu, Seifer, Ki-Adi-Mundi, and Plo Koon walked into the arena, and approached master yoda.

Mace: We heard about this fight taking place, we felt we needed to be here.

Yoda: Ah, an interesting match, this will be. The outcome, I cannot tell.

And so the two warriors continued to fight with vicious speed and power, leaving all the padawans, and most of the Jedi Knights astonished. Even Andrew didn't know his master could fight at that speed..... only the council expected it.[/I]

[Boba Fett]

When Dave and Jess finished they came outside and waited for the droids to start to weld on the new armor plating. Abob would have done the job personally, but the armor was so good that a human would be severely burned if he was close to the extreme heat needed to melt the armor.

Abob watched the three droids working on the top of the ship from his vantage point on top of the loader droid, which he had told to stand still .

Dave watched the three droids that were welding the armor to the belly of the Idiots Array, making sure the droids didnt cover the gun mounts.

Jess was overseeing four droids that were welding between the cockpit and the left side of the boarding ramp.

The droids didnt usually make mistakes, but with this job they had to be extra careful. Droids are not very good with being careful while welding or preforming other manual chores that they think are beneath them.

Several times Abob had to yell "STOP" because the droids kept trying to weld a sheet of armor over the cockpit veiwscreen.

Finally the welding was finished. It was getting dark, so they all walked back to the hotel and slept..............

[Heaven's Cloud]

[color=indigo]The two warriors light sabres resounded against one another. Craig's two blades whirled through the air unrelentlessly, yet none were able to penetrate Xander's silver light sabre.

Now it was Xander's time to attack. He wirled his blade upward and spun his body in circles. It was a variation of his famous attack, [i]The Desert Cyclone[/i]. The new variation was meant to be used against a large amount of men, however, Xander had a purpose for implementing such a tactic against Craig.

From the side lines the young Craig and Li looked on in awe. The two apprentices had never seen such fighting before. Mace Windu looked down at the two children and smiled.

Mace: You two look like you have never saw two Jedi's battle in the arena before.

Li: I have never seen anything like it before...they are so fast it is unbelievable. How is Xander able to wield that huge lightsabre with such quickness? And how is Craig able to match Xander's power using only one hand?

Mace: They are both master Jedi, and both are very in tune with the force. How do you feel about the bout Andrew, you seem surprised. Didn't you witness your master defeat the sith a few days ago?

Andrew: I didn't know my master was capable of such speed and strength...I didn't know that anyone was that capable...

Mace: Well, their warm ups will soon be over with.

Craig countered the [i]Dessert Cyclone[/i] and attacked, thrusting one lightsabre forward and the other in a wide arc. Instead of blocking Xander lowered his lightsabre beam, raised his hand and flung Craig back using the force. Craig landed simultaneously switching one yellow sabre off and flinging the other one at Xander. Using the force Xander stopped the blade in midflight and attempted to send it back at Craig. Pushing his hand forward Craig also halted the flying blade.

It was will versus will as both Jedi strained to move the now spinning light sabre. Niether seemed to be gaining any ground. The entire ring began to shake. All of a sudden the lightsaber flew straight up into the air, turned off, and landed at Craig's feet. Both Jedi looked outside the ring and saw the impish girn on Master Yoda's face.

Yoda: Young paddawans, you are not. Continue to use the force in that manner, fall, the entire tower will.

[I]The lightsabre handle at Craig's feet suddenly flew back into his hands. Igniting them both, he stood in one of his own styled stances. Both Craig and Xander had custom styles, Craig's made from a prefected variation of styles 2, 4, and 5, with many moves he had made up. To have a custom style required exceptional skill with a lightsabre, and many years of practice even then. However, both seemed t be masters of their blades.

Most of the people in the arena noticed that Craig's style was very unorthodox. He spun a lot, both in attack and defense, and always attacked in swift fluent strokes. This way, his chest was almost never left open to attack, and his reactions were slightly improved, which is how Craig had designed the style.

Craig pounced forward, whirring the sabres round in his hands. Xander ran, pointing his sabre directly towards Craig's eyes, the most common attack stance for a Jedi, but very effective.

Craig spun round, striking towards Xander's neck in a backhanded attack. Xander blocked with his own sabre, deflecting Craig's sabre to the right. Craig used this momentum to spin and strike at Xander with his other sabre, this time towards the legs, Xander again swatting that away with his own sabre.

Mace: This is an unusual treat for the padawans.

Yoda: Yes, learn a lot from this they will. They know now that they still have much to learn.[/I]

[color=teal][I]Li walked over to his master, his ego more so bruised than anything else. But as he began to speak Yoda interrupted him.[/i]

Yoda: Young Padawan you fought with arrogance in your heart and in your head and now you have paid for it. But enjoy this fight, as you will probably not see one of this caliber again...

Li: I shall master Yoda and I am sorry for being so arrogant

[i]Li looked back to the fight, Craig had once again gone on the offensive slashing at Xander's side but then used the force to push Xander to the other side of the room. Li stared again with content but secretly longed for a rematch with Andrew. Once again letting his anger cloud his judgement he marched over to Andrew and demanded another fight. Andrew accepted and they walked into the next battle arena.

Each drew their lightsabres and ignited them. Li began the fight by darting into Andrew and slashing upwards, but Andrew struck down the blade in responce. Andrew leapt up through the air and began a furious assualt on Li, neither could strike the other, both eqauly matched. Li was enjoying the fight emensly as he was finaly fighting a worthy advisary.

Li used the force to push Andrew back and then rushed into him, however at the last second Li darted to the side and slashing backwards, Andrew had not seen this coming and moaned in pain as his back stung with agony from the attack. Andrew rose back up but Li saw his advantage and dip a snap kick knocking Andrew onto his back, Li drove his lightsabre down but stopped just as it reached Andrew's face. Both breathing hard Li asked if Andrew wished to continue to which he was told yes, enough.

Li put his hand out and picked Andrewoff the ground as they returned to the arena. Weher Yoda and the others had been waiting[/i]

Yoda: Hmmmm you seem to have been in .......a disagreement Li

[I]Li said nothing instead he watched the fight[/i][/color]

Ryowa was watching the battle.

Ryowa: Master Yoda, when will I get the chance to battle someone.

Yoda: After this battle, you will fight Li. That is if its alright with him.

Li: It's all right with me. I just need to take a breath untill this fight is over with.

Yoda: All right that will be. This fight will take a long time it seem's.


Craig an Xander kept slashing at eachother with furrious looks in their eyes. Yoda and the others watched with entertainment.
