Feeding the Bear (NC)

[Jorus Dane]

"Only a few seconds, so... what's the plan hotshot?" Jorus relaxed now as it appeared that she was more at ease around him, out of the corner of his eye he saw the Dark Jedi recovering and getting up from the immense force push that Jorus sent his way. He looked down at the young girl with a glint in his eye. He removed his mask and hood to reveal his face to her. His face looked like he was in his late forties to early fifties with large bags under his eyes. However his emerald eyes gave away the fiery spirit of a man ten years younger. His hair was blonde with streaks of grey running through it, it parted just above his eyes and wet behind his ears.

Looking at the girl he felt a slight sadness, as she was another person that had been driven to crime and dark ways through desperation. She was just another victim of the cruel nature of the galaxy that they lived in.

Skice Variger

 

[Skice Variger]

She stood there in apprehension as the dark jedi behind them began recovering from their flurry of attacks "The plan is to NOT die!" She ignited her Saberdagger and held it in a backwards position she maintained her poise and composure she refused to succumb to her feelings of distrust and scrutiny and convinced herself that she would make her way out of this with the help of her ally as he removed his mask and hood.

She scanned his face and it left a imprint on her brain as she came to the realization that his face was one contradiction in motion as his blonde and grey hair swayed in the gentle breeze entering the hanger. She clenched her fist and raised it in front of her, Her face contorted and she released the most powerful force push she could muster as it blew things out of its advance. It was more power than she could handle and as a result she was swept of her feet and thrown into an assortment of crates behind the duo.

Orex stood after being pushed by a much stronger individual. Steadying himself, he layed eyes on the pair. The thief and a new, more powerful force-sensitive. The only thing that really perplexed Orex was how he had managed to even enter the dock without being shot by several Trandoshans. But that was immaterial at this given moment.

Orex pulled his more recently acquired lightsaber from his cloak. A more sophisticated hilt that when ignited produced a dark purple blade. Though he didn't want to kill either intruder. They intrigued him too much. The thief was weak in the force and young. She had never been shown what true power was. Orex intended to change that. The Grey however, he knew. He was well aware and took the necessary steps to avoid the temptation. He teetered on the border of power yet resisted the urge. Orex wanted a contest. The two were the same, yet opposite. [member="Skice Variger"] simply needed to discover the Dark Side. [member="Jorus Dane"] just needed the push.

Orex knew he could not access The Grey's mind, but the Thief was weak. She was tense, scared and tired. With that, Orex silently reached out to her mind, feeling the force within it and coaxed her emotions. While they fought, he would be helping her make the decision. One of the two would come out of the fight superior, and the other would be discarded. Orex simply needed to put the pair in that position.

He ignited his second lightsaber and stood firm.

"Where is your strength?! Show me your Power!"

His first phrase was uttered with a growl, the second, Orex shouted at the pair. The shout was accompanied by seething anger. He wanted them to feel what it was that gave him strength.

 

[Skice Variger]

Skice laid almost motionless in the now toppled assortment of crates and boxes her mind was spiraling and her thoughts were inconceivable. Or maybe they simply weren't hers? It was a odd and foreign feeling to the Mirialan it was as if someone else was In her mind clouding her mind and influencing her thoughts. Back on Dromund Kaas where she first joined the Revanite cult they out her through a series of test, The light side ones being the part of Revan that was Jedi, They taught her serenity and poise But the dark side ones being the part of Revan that was Sith induced pain and suffering and in the process of completing them her mind was greatly warped almost beyond repair.

Her memories were being jammed and were becoming more and more inaccessible but the faint whisper she could make out told her that when she laid on the final dark side test she emerged victorious by crossing the line between the light and dark thus becoming one with both and for a brief moment she was immensely powerful, But also unstable. She began to meditate with the mute quiver of sentience she had left, She began focusing on all the emotions she has felt during this battle Fear, Anger, Hate, Caution, Joy, Engagement, Focus and poise.

She began to lift above the air towering over everything else in the room as she unleashed all the power she could muster as she leached the force energy off of everyone who wasn't force sensitive and thus had a force shield at all times. She was a wound in the force and thus was creating a power vaccum.

"You wanna see how powerful I really am?!" Her words began to morph and twist as her thoughts began shifting towards the dark.

 

[Jorus Dane]

Jorus had encountered many Sith like him and knew not to answer to his petty games, he had personally dueled with many members of the dark council of the Jen'ari empire. Compared to them this Sith was a mere novice that was just venting his anger with a lack of control. As the Sith shouted through the force, Jorus put up a masterful force barrier and stood his ground, he then ran forward quickly and engaged this Sith head on, his orange lightsaber slashing down towards his head. Trying to make the dark side user focus on him, given his mastery of form II Makashi Jorus was incredibly confident and able in lightsaber to lightsaber combat.

"Strong in the dark side of the force you are young one, but you lack focus to ever be a true Sith." Jorus said as he and the Dark Jedi crossed blades for the first time.

He didn't notice what was happening behind him, until he felt a large lurching feeling in his stomach. The feeling of the force being pulled towards a certain someone. He saw the girl lifting multiple crates over her head, his eyes widened.

Orex Mauda
Skice Variger

 

[Skice Variger]

Skice had exhibited such power only one other time in her whole life span and it was undobtably the most terrifying experience of her life it was as if your feelings alone could move entire mountains it was scary but also unpresidentally intoxicating her mouth began to deform itself and her eyes began to turn a bright red as all of her siphoned power was beginning to release itself in its purest form, Incredible untempt power and it was destroyeing everything in its wake The addicts the trandoshans...And Skice herself.

Her body began to drip blood on the floor her fingers tips carried a white arc of force lightning on them and her face was decaying fast as her movements began to slow. She steadilly raised a arm and sent forth another blast of force lightning with indiscrimnation, She had no intended target she would blast whoever she could hit enemies and allies included. Immediately after she ignited her orange Saberdagger and rushed the two in front of her striking with precision and strength foreign to her.

 

[Mauda]

Orex watched as Skice revelled in newfound power. Raw emotion seemed to manifest itself physically as she was consumed by the force. But his satisfaction was cut short as the Gray engaged him. Orex crossed his pair of blades to block the down-swing aimed for his head.

"With all due respect old man, The Sith disgust me as much as the Jedi. The Dark side is my tool, anger my weapon. Something you could learn from."

Orex found his agility to be superior to that of the Gray and used it to his advantage. Skice's indiscriminate use of lightning came crackling towards the pair, at which point Orex pushed the Gray's blade away from his head and kicked him in the chest, towards the lightning. He then turned to face Skice who was now swinging her blade with sudden precision. Orex could barely keep up, he ducked a swing blocked another. But he couldn't keep it up forever, as one swing grazed his abdomen. Orex felt his anger flow to the wound, isolating it. With that, swung both sabre's to meet another swing and smashed them both into the dagger.

"Embrace it Skice. Return yourself to reality and realise the power you now wield. I am not your enemy."

Orex was playing a defensive game, not intent on maiming Skice. He wanted to get as much out of her as possible while also stalling her movements to allow the transports to leave unscathed.

Jorus rotated his hips as he was kicked up into the air, he did a flip in the air so he landed on his feet. He sighed as he saw Skice reengage the Dark Jedi. He knew he needed to end this quickly before she got hurt. As she was attacking him Jorus placed his hand on the floor feeling the force flow through him, he forced it into the ground causing a mini earthquake within the docking bay. Throwing both Skice and the Dark Jedi off balance, and tossing them into the air. Jorus then used the force to catch Skice bringing her beside him. He then started hurling crates with the force at the Dark jedi as the ground shook beneath his feet.

"This ends now..." He said with finality.

 

[Skice Variger]

Skice twisted and struggled as she was held in place by Jorus his sudden interference throwing off her guard and sending her into a blind rage as elbowed him and pushed him away her body continued to decay and her speech was incomprehensible. "Drethgj esdcalth fiodjt" She was speaking with extreme vitality in her words and her eyes resembled an open flame as embers shot out of them. Then unexpectedly she began speaking nonsense again except this time it was understandable.

"Aeron why me why would you do this TO ME?! Jack you would try to kill me after all we've been through?! B...Bastila you...you TRAITOR! Malak !" Something unexplainable was happening it was as if something was setting off memories that weren't even Skice's and they were taking a toll on her mental and physical health. Skice continued to struggle and after a few moments she collapsed and fell to the floor unconscious and twitching uncontrollably.
