A new Sith rising

[Durn Krow]

On Telos within the Sith Empire Territory, inside a training area within one of the many buldings, a young Duros sat in the middle of an empty circular room.
He was on his knees and his eyes were closed, clearly meditating. He was dresed in robes of a Sith apprentice, the color syle being dark red with a lighter shade to match his dark boots. In front of him was a lightsaber, one that held a special place in his heart; given what few compasionate emotions he felt nowadays.
As he kept meditating, from behind the colums in the room, combat droids, all armed with either blasters or saber-like wepons, snuck up and surounded him. Once they all readyied to attack the Duros Sith apprentice opened his eyes and used the force to summon his lightsaber to his hand.
Just as they fired he leapt over them and landed behind two, using his slightsaber to cut them down. Some tried to fire but he delfected the shots away before those with the saber weapons came closer. For a breif moment they clashed before he managed to slice the legs off two of them and ducked away from another's swing. Only a few remained now as he delfected more blasts. One managed to knock his saber from his hand and readied to deliver the final blow, however they didn't anticipate the Duros using the force to take his gun from him and use it to mow down the last remaining droids.
With all of them defeated the Duros tossed the blaster away and used the force to regain his lightsaber, not fully realizing his master @Tricia Kalamack was watching nearby.

Tricia wasn't nearby, she was on the roof letting the force keep her afloat while observing. The small cocoon she had created of energy to make it feel natural while upside down and not let the blood pull to her head was shimmering with small distortions. Then she let her silver eyes fall upon the apprentice while he fought the droids. She didn't need to speak, at the moment there was no need to but it was still amusing to see, he was like an ant now where she would have once saw a student. Lord Kaine and master Val'ryss had been very truthful in their words. Her eyes were open to the truth now about the rest of the galaxy. The Lords of shadow were many things but they were not wrong or weak. They had proven it to her while slowly her new apprentice.... Oh that had such a nicer sound then padawan. Her apprentice had finished.

So she moved letting the darkside radiate from her clasped hand while the sabers on her belt detached in the force activating with three snap hiss before coming down in a saber barrier encircling the apprentice in the room just out of reach. It was something easy enough to do and she had shown several such feats against Ashmedai and the others at Metalorn, She could use all of her sabers at once if she so chose and now all she wanted to do was put the small ant in his place as her words came out with reverberation in the room then in the force letting it be a battering ram for his mental defenses. "Bow."

[Durn Krow]

There was no hesitation.
Durn bowed deeply before his master, his alightsaber still in hand. He kept his compsure as he felt the strength of the dark side radiate from her. It almost felt like standing in the presence of a living vessel of the force itself, as least to him. That was why he respect his Master Tricia like any true apprentice should.
"As he bowed he only adressed her, saying "Master Tricia."
It rolled of his tounge so well to say it. He merley kept bowing while waiting for his master to speak.

The apprentice at least understood his place and slowly Tricia let herself walk along the ceiling until she came to a wall and then went down it. Her sabers never wavered while the silver of her eyes tracked him. She could break him, if she wanted to. Put him in a crushing grip until bones snapped but then where would be the fun of that when she could also teach him to fly. By throwing him out the window... Oh there was so many things she could do, so many new possibilities that had been shown to her. Now if she wanted to why just hurt him... she could rip information from his head and make it her own. She could instill insanity deep in his mind and he would never even know she was there or nearby. He couldn't fly and didn't even seem to realize she cared little for his safety now.

"Good now stay down there and speak your name."

 

[Durn Krow]

Obideant as ever he said "Durn Krow, Master." still bowing.

His eyes were closed only until he was allowed to stand straight up again. No reason to look at the floor if nothing was there. He could still feel his master's energy flowing off her like the heat of a sun. It was both a glorius and intimidating feeling knowing this Sith could break him in a number of ways. If it meant that was all he was good for in the Sith then so be it, just as long as he knew he stood among thier ranks for a time to honor his mother's memory.

His willingness to obey was refreshing and slowly Tricia shuddered as her feet tapped the ground then walked past him. This was all about one thing and he would crave power or he would fall on his sword... Most likely it would be both in the end but her hand at the small of her back twitched motioning forward with two fingers. "Come apprentice." The walk back towards the window as she looked out upon Telos was enough while she spoke. "When you are with me alone I am your master, you may speak as long as it is not boring or tedious, when we are among the others you will not speak unless spoken to or else. You will be broken, I will leave you drooling on the floor believing yourself to be a six your old ballerina."

 

[Durn Krow]

As he stood and followed Durn listened to his mater's words carefully.


When she finished he simply said "As you wish, Master Tricia." with a calm tone.

Despite the threat she made he knew that he would do as she wished. He was that keen on being as loyaly a student as ever there were. Often his mother, being a sith herself, told stories of what happned when certian apprentices, even from the Jedi, would try to stand against thier masters and end up losing more than they could afford.

Tricia kept looking out the window and just gave a nod. That was acceptable for now but the real tests would come later as her sabers circled around coming back to her belt. She still had more then most sith could use at once.. If anything she was stronger now and could use them better. Her concentration sharper her anger, her wrath, her wanting allowing her to finally let loose as it were with her power. Becuase as Kaine pointed out it was her power... Not the jedi's to control hers. "Good now tell me what you know how to do."

 

[Durn Krow]

He merley stood with his hands behind his back as he explined "I've been trained to handle a lightsaber, Master. I find it the more preferable means of combat over using the force. That, i belive, would better suit me for more sutble methods of slaying an emeny. But when all else fails I cn handle a blaster very well, though I prefer to keep that as a last resort."

He looked between his master and the view of the window looking outside, seeing almost as much as she did. He thought back to when he first came to this place some years ago. It felt like revisiting a place from another liftime.

[Tricia Kalamack]

"Well then you will be a child swinging a stick." Her eyes flicked back towards the him with a malicious intent and then she rose into the air. The force was hers to command as the air distorted and hardened below her like a platform then she let her hands remain behind her back and pushed with the full force on his mind. Her anger and silk robes adding to the flames, it made her mental touch into a battering ram while her voice echoed through the force and her eyes showed the barest hint of yellow on the edges of silver. The tri-colored finally showed making the silver mix with yellow flecks and finally black diamonds appeared. The normal color was all silver but now.. now she let the darkside course through her from the silks. The caries waters were a fraction of the taint Val'ryss has but it echoed through her while she sent horrors and atrocities to him from her memories. She let the weight of her power become a wave of black energy intending to crush him. Then feel the force and the weight of ages, the hatred I have held for twenty six thousand six hundred years and know apprentice that your blaster will not help against me or others.

 

[Durn Krow]

Durn at first held his head in pain at the images being transmitted into him. The feeling grew and grew to the point where he now collapsed to his knees still struggling to stay focused despite his master's mental atack. He could feel all the emotions and images being streamed into his mind like too much energy being forced into a engine, any more and his entire head could overload. Despite this he still tried to fght, focusing on his own goals for joining the Sith. His own personal mission he had against the Jedi that he wanted more than anything.

tricia remained where she was then slowly brought herself down touching his head as her grip tightened. She could bash and prod him but also take and she forced it all, her eyes closed as she reached deep and pulled to take his memories forherself and see his life. No need to ask just want and the red tendrils lashed out to drain the knowledge and make hurt but he would still have his knowledge just copied for her. So she could understand him and a sneer came across her face.

 

[Durn Krow]

@Tricia Kalamack

Durn gave a breif but loud scream as he felt his mind invaded by his master's power.

All at once it seemed as if the memories of his life flashed through his mind. What felt like an instant could almost be recorded as an entire lifetime. He could see it all, meaning his master likely could as well. His father teaching him to fir a blaster. His mother telling him stories. Seeing a Jedi, hooded and weilding a blue lightsaber, and thier company of soldiers helping to kill his parents. His rage against them for the crime and his ever growing want for thier end.

Tricia clenched hand into a fist as she stopped and let her mind process the information, she knew how to do much and stepped back letting the red tendrils disappear while shaking her hand. Then her eyes went towards the equipment of her apprentice and she flicked her fingers at it to get rid of it. "Now go over there and stand, until your able to actually fly your forbidden to use a lightsaber." The sith master crossed her arms bringing one blade out and turning it on to face him. "Now use the force to dodge." Tricia let the floating lightsaber slash at the apprentice going at his shoulder.

 

[Durn Krow]

@Tricia Kalamack

Durn had done as his master commanded and removed his lightsaber. He still felt a little winded from what she'd done with his mind but he knew he had to fight through it in order to andle the next peice of traning. Once he stod where she wanted he saw as her lightsaber came twoards him. Instinclty he dodged the attack and braced for any and every other to follow. He just kept imagining it wasn't his master he was fighting bt the mystery Jedi who'd killed his family, making it eaier to focus for him.

 

[Tricia Kalamack]

Tricia brought the saber back round, it wasn't bound by the rules of a body, the hilt could go in any direction and she slashed it back at him turning on a dime before raising into the air and sneering with her free hand crackling. "Were I you, I would start using he force to try and defeat it, before you lose an arm apprentice." And with that her hand move sending a wave of the force at his feet. to try and knock him down.

@Tricia Kalamack

Taking into consideration Durn waited for the right moment, jumping away from the saber when it went for his feet. When it came back around he held up one hand and tried stopping it in the air. He concentrated and fought to push it back. He knew it would take more, given how strong with the force Master Tricia was, so he used both hand to try and keep it back. Slolwey he began to push and push with all his might and the force.

 

[Tricia Kalamack]

Tricia looked upon her apprentice as he tried and for a moment she felt bad for him. He was trying so but then she felt it pulse deep in her chest and a fresh wave of anger came while the other sabers on her belt activated circling. She wasn't wasting the time flying, she didn't need to bash at his mental shields and with the power Val'ryss had given her now... now she stood here floating the sabers as each in a circle of light slashed at her apprentice.

 

[Durn Krow]

Krow saw the others coming had had to act quick. He forced pushed himself away from the other two and the one he'd been holding back in order to avoid being cut in three different ways. Seeing them all coming now he did his best to duck and dodge each swipe and slash. One managed to singe his right side, making him hiss in pain. But he fought through it. All the scars he would carried only served as reminders to him, nothing more.
