Just Hard Work Chap. 2 [Astrian Callus]

Everyone who knew Sochi, knew she was all about progress. Training was something she did for fun, it seemed odd, but that's just how she was. She had made it public once more that she was looking for sparring partners. She received notification that an old friend of hers had taken interest. She was also aware that he was recently promoted to Jedi Knight. She hadn't the time to formally congratulate him as she should've but that could be accomplished today.

They would gather on Tython for a sparring match just like when they were padawans. There was a grove that Sochii occupied while she awaited his arrival, she had sent him the coordinates before hand, and it wasn't too far off from the temple located there. Since her promotion Sochi wasn't as conservative anymore, atleast when it came to close that is. Usually one would find her in her layers of robes, with her traditional Togruti sash upon her long skirt. That wasn't the case anymore.

Now Sochi adorns a cream backless top with a deep V-front (that shows her both bare back and shoulders) and brown straps around her midriff that seem to accentuate her chest and bellybutton. She has a light brown loincloth and homemade bikini bottom. She also sports a bit of gray cloth wrapped around her feet (that shows both her bare toes and heels) and most of it around both leg calves (that shows her right knee) and left forearm (with a couple silver spikes on it). Brown straps she's tied around her lekku and montrals that are now long enough that they almost reach the ground behind her.

She sits in meditation, awaiting the arrival of her long lost friend. @[member="Astrian Callus"]
 
Astrian had arrived in the Temple on Tython. He had not seen Sochi in such a long time, he had taken a leave of absence from the jedi to study as an Imperial Knight. However much he missed Sochi, he had not expected the invitation from her. He felt odd, returning to the jedi temple. It felt, different to be around. Alien and different, Astrian had changed. So had his attire. However, Sochi had invited him to the forests.

Now, that he had returned from a Invasion of Dubrillion and a Dominion of Kad V. He had became an Imperial Knight and donned the crimson armour. Clad in it, it felt right; his face revealed to all those around and the long silver blade dangling from his belt that he had created with his previous jedi Master. A long time ago; the long cloak he had dawned before had been cut down to size with the Imperial Armour. Stalking through the long hallways of the temple. He eventually found himself in the area in which she wished to spar. Taking a deep breath, he entered. Sochi's new attire was breathtakingly revealing; however abnormal this had been long ago. She looked different now, her fashion and body had matured with time. Her attire showing this off openly.

However, this was pure analysation. Astrian was more interested in how her combat had improved; as Astrian had reached a whole new level with his abilities. However, he had no idea what Sochi had been up to in this time. Meta's hair was long and white; and he looked healthier and more dominating now. His crimson armour causing him to stand out, he would surprise Sochi with the new features of his armour. A smile appeared on his face; he was happy to see her. Especially in this new 'style' of clothing.

(sorry I should've clarified more on the location, we are in a open area of the forest near the temple)

When she felt a familiar presence she opened her eyes and slowly stood up. She face the front for a split moment before turning around to greet her visitor. She had a calm facial expression as she locked eyes with the face of a man she once knew. Taking acouple of steps forward she motioned with her right hand as she began to talk.

"I was pondering when you were going to stop standing over there and finally come and make introductions Meta, or is it Astrian now?" She said slowly, and softly. Her tone of voice hadn't changed since then. She stopped in her tracks and looked at the armor he had on.

It was crimson in its appearance, and carried with it the history if the Imperial Knights. Hmm it would seem Astrian had became one. She hadn't any problem with such decisions, it wasn't like he was causing trouble. She titled her head a little and made note of the fact that she could actually see his face. She obtained a subtle smile. From the outside he had definitely matured and grew. His demeanor seemed different as well. She noticed his smile and it in turn made her smile as well.

"I must say Astrian its nice to see you again. It's been a very long time. I'm glad to see you doing so well." She finally followed up, standing just some feet away from him,

"Likewise." He said with a smile, her smile was warm and welcoming. However Astrian would have liked to talk, he wasn't here for conversation. Maybe afterwards, however. At this moment in time. Sparring was on both of their minds; but in his time with the Imperial Knights. Astrian had changed. "Its Astrian now." He said, Astrian had grown in his power and had learn't many things and conquered worlds. Lead armies and the such, he had achieved so much more in such a short period of time than he had done in the Jedi Order. But, Sochi wouldn't want to hear that. So, looking down to his belt; he took the long silver blade in his hand, flipping it between his fingers.

He looked back at Sochi with only the movement of his eyes, he hadn't seen her in so long and the first thing they were to do was fight? It didn't feel right, however. She asked him out for a sparring match not on a date. Not that the eventual latter would surprise him. "Are you ready Sochi?" He asked, now holding the blade in a tight grip. He took an offensive stance, ready to fight.

She nodded, it was true, as much as she would have liked to catch up and hear of his many adventures she was definitely bound for business. From the vibes she got from Astrian it would seem he was also about business. That was a good quality, although it was never something she didn't see in him. She noticed his movement towards his blade, she raised an eyebrow simultaneously. He asked if she was ready, and she was just as eager.

"Yes, I happen to be ready." She said before taken her leave, turning around and walking just a few more feet away to give them both some room. She bowed before him to show her respect. And she gripped her lightsaber hilt and held it in her right hand.

Sochi stared for a moment, just preparing herself to be ready for the upcoming battle, then she ignited her blue blade. It shone with a blue glow that shrouded just a small portion of her lower waist, and upper thigh. She had been recently wanted to train a specific ability she learned. She didn't assume a stance just yet. She was beginning to utilize a Force Form; specifically Potency. This would enhance her ability to strike with the force.

Once she felt ready, she imbued her weapon with the force, and plunged it into the ground in front of her, sending tremors through the soil in an large radius towards Astrian. This marked her first attack, after this she shut down her sustained Force Form, because using this particular one too much for too long would drain her.

The tremors reached Astrian almost instantly, however Force potency was a strange and unique form that required a lot of practice and experience to be effective. Therefore, the tremors were light and merely caused the ground to rumble like a hungry stomach. Astrians feet trembled, but that was the extent of it. Astrian activated the blade in his hands; the orange beam of light extended from the hilt. Astrian, was already in an offensive stance and began moving forward. The force elevating his speed; he was moving fast towards Sochi.

Then, as Astrian drew close, he brought his blade across in a right flowing arc; the blade and strike would have missed entirely if he had not used the force to dash forward right into Sochi, putting the saber within distance of her and at the level of her abdomen. The orange blade simmered as it moved fastly through the open landscape of planet tython; this would be a good battle.

The test of the force tremor seemed to be rather successful, though it would need some work, she titled her head and nodded in approval as the results she wanted came through, now all she would need to do was hone it. After she shut down the sustained ability, she flipped her cerulean blade in her hand so that it was within a reverse grip. She expected him to charge her, it was the only way to close the distance. He moved at a great speed, an dishes bent her knees slightly, and brought her right hand up in a guard.

As he drew close he brought his blade across in a arc, she quickly blocked his attack with her unorthodox Shien grip. She held her blade against his, both if them clashing causing sparks to bounce from the center. She pushed, and batted his blade away all followed by a force aided blac flip. She landed in a crouched position, and smiled. She turned around and ran for the surround Forrest. This was going to be a interesting clash.

"Oh we're running now huh?" Astrian smiled, did she know what she had just done? She had given Astrian the opportunity he would need. He was a practiced user of force speed and his augments helped too, with a burst of unrivalled speed. He sped off, into the dark folds of tree's and grass that surrounded the forest. Astrian wasn't around anymore; at least. Not in the area Sochi had last saw him, he was somewhere deep in the green of the forest. His current position unknown from Sochi, but that stopped when he burst from the bushes, chasing after her. Both were running fast, but Astrians long legs, augments and force power allowed him to catch up to Sochi easily, now slowing down with the force as he got closer to her; he brought his right hand up into a fist and charged a blast of force energy, sending ripples through the tree line a wave of force energy directed at Sochi, Astrian had a dirty smile on his face; Sochi looked different and her attitude was different. They'd have to talk afterwards; about him leaving the order not long ago. Or his absence or whatever sort of denial any of the others may have been in; they would need to talk about it. However, this thoughts were swept from his mind as the wave of energy drew closer to Sochi, if the wave hit her. It would most certainly throw her off balance and possibly off of her feet.

She wasn't really running away from the fight, more than she was just taking it to a area where she felt she had more control. She was came to a halt when she saw that Astrian had managed to keep up with her, humph. She noticed that he wasn't in her line of vision, this wouldn't change much. He was now in her surroundings, there was a reason she picked this place. Her head quickly snapped to the direction where he made his presence known. She raised an eyebrow, when she figured what he was doing. He sent a surge of force energy at her, she allowed it to catch her, and it took her body with it over a small ledge. When it seemed as though the battle had quickly ended in possibly an accident, the forest seemed to take on a silence. Enough time had passed, and suddenly Sochi rose on top of a massive leaf. She was in a crouched position with her saber ignited, and held out to her side. She jumped off the leaf, and landed on the ground, when she hit the ground almost simultaneously roots began to grow at an alarming, and overwhelming pace underneath Astrians feet.

It had seemed that Sochi had come to control the forest. It was her ally, however Astrians strength and size was his. It was amusing to say the least, that Sochi thought vines could hold him. Astrian smiled, dashing forward with the force he ripped the roots asunder. However, he did not dash into Sochi. He went to her side, and used the force to send a wave of force energy to pull her in a spiral towards him, however. If she dodged, he was holding his blade in a traditional Soresu stance, ready for her to launch toward him to dodge the attack. Sochi's ability had caught Astrian off guard at first, however. It would not do so again.

@[member="Sochi Ru"]
 
It wasn't her plan to hold him down with the plants; no that wasn't it. She was planning on developing a defense from it. Seeing that he found his way out of the entanglement and made his way to her, she quickly moved her body so that she was facing him. Though her body wasn't moving she was planning an attack while he was doing the same. Right before he launched his force based attack a vine had whipped down from the tree above, Sochi quickly gripping it with her free hand, and using her abilities she controlled the vine to pull her up with great speed. Doing this allowed her to maneuver herself out of his planned force attack. Now in mid air, she commanded the vine to loosen its grip and she came down with an aerial attack. Bring her lightsaber straight down, clashing with his Soresu guard stance. As she held her blade against his, she imbued it with force push, aiding herself in gaining some ground.

@[member="Astrian Callus"]
 
Astrians feet battled with the jungle grass beneath them, the force push was light and barely moved him a few inches but allowed for Sochi to land unharmed. Astrian however retraced his blade from the conflict as soon as Sochi's blade collided with his own, as was the way of Djem So. He pressed forward with his saber in one hand and imbued the power of the force in the other, a fast swipe with his saber to her blade to bat it aside with bone crushing strength and the ferocity of an angered bear. The blade landed within a blink and Astrian pushed forward covering the ground between the two at the same time. Bending his arms close to his chest, one of his large meaty arms were more than twice the size of her own. With his free hand he continued to charge it with the force, waiting for the right moment to use it.
