WEAPONS:

CRYSTALS/RESOURCES:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
Matsu's family has a natural talent aside from bein around the galaxy. Their memory is strong able to be eidetic and with the aid of the force enhanced. Her ability to watch and retain long term as well as enhance short term memory to speed up her neural processes to have perfect recall of what she has read, heard or learned. It has created a few problems as she doesn't fully dedicate herself to one thing instead preferring to learn everything she can. Her recent severing from the force has damaged her connection to the force but not her mind.

Matsu's greatest strength is also her biggest weakness. Curiosity but where herrs is in the aspects of the force and its application. She doesn't seek power for her own sake but to ensure such knowledge is not lost or horded by others. She doesn't like the idea of a single person knowing how to phase through a wall or fight superior to others. She has taken the time to learn the basics of the saber forms with more knowledge of the advanced techniques but these are not done in practice. She is wise in them and can explain the finer points of juyo but she has not actually done it.

Her self training also leads in many ways to things she has not known about herself. She believes in the jedi code, she believes in the lightside but she doesn't believe the force has a side. The intent of the person using it and for good or for ill is something she has tried to prove. Albeit in smaller ways such as studying ancient arts of the cult of Vahl or Dathormir nightsisters. Her research has led her to several discoveries but nothing huge.

Matsu does not master saber forms, she has learned them and she has practiced them but onlyto give her students the true breathe of choice. They may choose their path and when they reach knight level she will show them who to go to. This has brought friction but also some understanding as the more dangerous forms such as Vaapad which she knows in text and theory never in practice. She can describe the moves and the mental state of the user but she doesn't actually know the form.

Her use of exotic and often times dangerous force powers has wrecked her body, her normal constitution is weaker then most. She catches a cold easily and takes longer to recover without aid of the force. Using certain abilities for prolonged periods of time has made her fall unconscious and bleed from her eyes and nose. A hibernation trace until she is recovered is usually placed upon her.

Matsu's size and physical condition is such that she isn't very strong. She has muscle but not as much as most with injuries and damage from fights done. Her exposure to the blu shadow virus on Cyrillia has made her immune system less helpful. Her body can be augmented with the force to make up for the damage she has suffered and as a memory of who inflicted it. She can't physically lift her own body weight without the aid of the force.

Matsu is easily influenced when under inebriation from alcohol and it causes her mental shields to drop. Chora had worked with her but the petite jedi's constitution wasn't ever up for hard drinking or really any drinking of the sort.

Matsu is skilled is other martial forms, Zeison Shal and Jal Shey texts have led her to develop sabers to match as well as conditions and ideas to modify her teachings. Her brief time with several mandalorians has taught her strong hand to hand combat and how to think at times like a soldier instead of just a jedi. Her learning of Teräs Käsi has made her one of the few jedi in the order who knows the techniques.

Age: With age comes wisdom but the jedi master has been getting older she might not have the quickest step but she does have knowledge of how to augment and improve her body so she can keep up with most of the jedi masters and padawans within the order. Aging gracefully while immersed within the force itself to keep her looking far younger then she actually it.

Teräs Käsi:
A form of hand to hand combat Matsu has begun to learn. She was taught the basics by jedi knight Cat and practices when she gets the chance.

BIOGRAPHY:
The room was slightly under-lit and damp as the circle of woman sat around her. The woman was straining and being told to push as a rigid woman stood up with a towel wrapped around a bundle and she wiped the baby off. Gently the child was placed next to the mother and the woman's turned to see her.
"A daughter Oshida you have a daughter."

"Matsu.... my child..."
Slowly the woman frowned as her hand came up and touched the face of the baby. Her hand lightly glowed a golden light while she spoke more.
"You were born innocent Matsu but soon shall have your soul stained. It started nearly two years ago on Dantooine, me and your father came to teach at the local school. We didn't know what they had done what he had planned. He wanted to make money wanted to make a profit and exploit the people so he did, he told them the sith were returning and they could be excluded from the local militia by paying the Alliance. It was a scam and for the price of one thousand credits they could get someones else to fight."

"The farmers quickly went about it paying but still he wasn't done to sell the con he needed someone to take the blame. So he told them your father was from the Alliance and there to draft them the others worked them into a frenzy so when we arrived they attacked. Your father Matsu was taken with your brother to a shed and killed while I was taken with him. He kept me locked away in their ship bound to a wall with my grief while they counted their blood money. The youngest he wanted my body so he took it with his share but I learned their names, Micah Zeeman, Quinn Callahan, Rhoan Jefferies and Meng Die the queen of the group."
Slowly Oshida looked around as her face was contorted in anger and she spit the four names as in her eyes their faces burned.
"After they finished with the planet they fled left to Coruscant to separate and disappeared. Rhoan kept me his slave in his shop he opened and made sure I knew I was his to have nightly. He didn't know I had stolen the knife from your brothers back. Didn't know until I had it sticking out of his back and was looking into my eyes but I got caught trying to escape and was sent here."
With a look at the baby Oshida smiled a sadistic grin. She hadn't gotten what she wanted she wanted another son to preform her revenge.
"My daughter you were born for my vengeance such a sad fate but you will avenge us... your brother... your father and me. Your nothing more then a Child of the Netherworld."
The woman around her gasped at the thought as Katagiri stood there in her armor and spoke.
"Do not say that Oshida she is your child she is innocent of your madness."
Oshida made a face that was a sneer and then contorted in pain as her spoke her words coming out like venom.
"Katagiri you thought me a whore when I came here karking everything like a mad queen in heat. I saw it in all your faces my daughter will be my vengeance or I will find a way back. I will come back and kill you all."
Then there was a sound as Oshida broke into a cold sweat and screamed in pain. The woman went to work trying to stop the blood loss as Oshida spoke grabbing the woman and leaning up to stare in her face.
"Swear to me she will be taught Katagiri. Swear to me you will teach her how to do all I cannot."
Katagiri nodded and looked at Oshida as she laid back and was panting the blood loss too much. She didn't know how to refuse a dying woman. As Oshida died outside the window the dust floated and went from white to red coloring as the baby held her hand up towards it. Katagiri looked down and held her up as she spoke.
"What wipes injustice from the world is not pure snow Matsu, it is the blood soaked snow of the Netherworld. You will be trained but I will find out if these people are guilty. Then I will teach you to bring them to Justice."
Slowly the baby fell asleep with a red glow on her face as later that night Katagiri left the prison with the child and went to Rhen Var. There the Imperial Knight climbed a staircase into the mountains and came to a large frozen forest with a temple in it where a bell sounded twelve times. She walked in the snow and came to look at an old man who wore a white robe and black hat he spoke looking at the woman and gave her a colder gaze then the landscape.
"Why have you come back my granddaughter?"
Katagiri flinched at the mans gaze he still put fear in her heart as she spoke finding her voice looking down at Matsu.
"The baby girl her mother asked I train her, I can't take her to the Knights but your dangerous grandfather. Please help me keep a promise to a person on her deathbed."
The old man made a face and came down the stairs so he could look at the child and he gave a small grin. It had been awhile since he had a pupil his granddaughter being secreted away from his teachings in the middle of the night by her mother. He didn't speak just motioned them along and gave them both a warm room and bed. As the time went on the temple livened up with the sounds of a playing child who was made to run through the snow barefoot until she could do a lap without stopping.
Matsu was born in a prison ward on Kessel to her convict mother and a prison guard who would not be named. As she sat in her mothers arms something happened and her mother hemorrhaged bleeding to death as she recalled a tale of deceit and murder that landed her in prison and slowly as her mother died Matsu was carried to the medical wing of the Imperial facility where she was checked. Later that night an Imperial Knight named Katagiri carried her away as her adoptive daughter to train.
For the next several years until she was a young child Matsu trained and was taught by Katagiri and the warrior priest Dokia how to fight and serve the Imperial knights. In exchange her master would do all she could to find the men her mother hated and tried to kill and deliver justice if they deserved it. Over the years Matsu was made to endure daily exercise and sword training in the heat, snow, rain and dust-storms as she was stripped naked and made to endure not just the strikes from her masters but the elements.
As she was trained Matsu was told over and over almost daily by Katagiri the story her mother told. She was a child of death something made for only one goal and would be trained as such. "You have a destiny; forget joy, forget sorrow, forget love and hate, forget everything except vengeance!" Those were the words that got drilled into her head daily until she could repeat them on queue and until she was ready wouldn't be allowed to leave and hunt down the men.
"Matsu you have done well but your training is not nearly complete. We must make you into your destiny so that your families killers will be punished.

Slowly the man sounded the bell as a woman in red armor stood off to the side and looked on. Slowly Matsu heard the man as the bell chimed for the third time.

"Tell me Matsu, as a child of the Netherworld what is the first thing you remember?"

With a look Matsu tilted her head up as her face was slack and her eyes fierce. She remembered much mainly the mans intense training as her words came out and she kept kneeling in the snow.

"I remember my birth, I remember a room with woman looking at me and my mother as she spoke." "Matsu my daughter you were born to fulfill my vengeance. Such a sad fate for a child..... a child of the Netherworld.

Slowly as she spoke the bell chimed for the final time as Matsu looked at the man who motioned for her to continue.

"I remember master Katagiri bringing me to you after she was released. She and you have told me what i am everyday since I was a baby."

The man looked at Matsu as he walked forward and stood over her and took out a wooden stick. Slowly he held it over her shoulder as he brought it down and spoke until she had welts but didn't cry out and the man held a rope out to her. Slowly Matsu tied it around her waist as she stood and felt the bite of the snow before he struck at her again. Quickly she dodged as he struck at her again and again each time faster and faster.

"You have a destiny; forget joy, forget sorrow, forget love and hate, forget everything except vengeance!"


As the man spoke Matsu looked up at him and dodged his strike with a roll and he caught her lip with a splinter that drew blood dripping it into the snow as she looked up and her eyes showed a resolve to defeat the man. Slowly Matsu stood up as he struck at her and she kicked up cracking the stick and she watched the broken end land away in the snow. Slowly Matsu circled and ran at the man pounding on his stomach as she silently screamed. She wasn't ever supposed to make a sound as she felt Katagiri's arms around her and pull her away.

At other times she would jump into a barrel and be kicked down a hill to teach her how to remain calm and if she fell out of the barrel she was forced to do it over again until she was able to do ten in a row. Soon she was trained in how to use the force minutely unless she attract unwanted attention from outsiders. For her tenth birthday she was given a lightsaber hilt that would be used to get both her mother justice and serve the Emperor and the force; but all was not well as late at night a raiding party descended on the farmstead and the prison warden called for aid from the nearest forces before he was shot and Matsu fought with her wooden stick until Katagiri secreted her away again to a tree stump where she hid until her master disappeared and several robed men picked her up after the fires burned the farmstead and they took her to Tython.

Then something happened as from the sky fire came and ships. Matsu was ten years old and she stood in a kimono and ran with Katagiri and Dokai into the woods. She was placed under some fallen trees and made to be safe while they fought. But that wasn't all in the vision there was something else there a woman in gold who radiated heat and angry behind Matsu who was crouching in the trees and Oshida watched as she protected her daughter with all her strength. Nothing would stop her vengeance and when the skies cleared of ship and the sun broke through to show the ruined temple. They came the jedi in their robes and found her clutching Katagiri's lightsaber.
THE JEDI:


Matsu didn't know what to think about her new surroundings, she was a year or two older then the others around her but some people said that her previous training helped. As she clenched her lightsaber hilt and looked around as a few people tried to befriend her but she just gave them a silent stare before a tall man entered and divided the younglings into three groups. They were to be taken to the different people and she stood in her white and brown tunic holding a training saber as her combat instincts kicked in. She managed a single strike to her teachers head as she jumped up and over, his head coming around. Matsu tilted her head to the side as she got some applause and cheers but was told she was using aggression and that was dangerous.
Over the next few years Matsu continued to train never speaking a work to the other students but on the few moments when she was with the masters she would speak a brief word when complimented or project her thoughts in surrounded. Her shyness never ceased the entire time she was there as she was given at the age of sixteen to a master and taught several force powers but she remained ever the silent sentry projecting her thoughts to her master on mission and typing out her reports for the council if needed as she trained with her new lightsaber and a dark midnight blue blade from a crystal she had found that nearly matched her tunic and leathers she had for training purposes.

When Matsu was able to have alone time she trained herself in speed and agility often to painful ends that got her sent to the medical bay because she would never cry out when it got to be too much and slowly she developed a high pain threshold as she continued and pushed herself to be the fastest of her class of padawans. Slowly as she trained Matsu began to get less and less bruises and cuts as she at the age of twenty she still continues to train in preparation for her trials.

Nine years after she had come to the temple Matsu continued to train and attend classes, she developed a friendship with Adonia, a fellow padawan who had been working for years to befriend Matsu. Slowly they became and acted more like friends going into the mess hall after Adonia received a broken rib in a class. Matsu met several other padawans including a friend of Adonia's named Chora. The green skinned padawan was angry and upset about something but Matsu didn't know what. Slowly she met a jedi knight named Makara. After the dinner Matsu visited the library to learn about being a jedi shadow something that interested her. She researched the powers she would have to learn to be considered a shadow, slowly Matsu also looked at how to fly as she wanted to impress Adonia.
The next day Matsu met with Adonia for a training session and the two competed in a race as the two ran through the temple and the streets of Coruscant. The two free ran for an hour or more throughout the city and got onto a transport that was bringing supplies to the academy. Slowly as they returned Matsu and Adonia began to see who was better with a blade and Matsu tied by deactivating her saber and holding it to her friends chest as Adonia stopped near her neck. It was a double death blow and after that they talked a little mainly about what they wanted to do as knights and what adventures they might go on. The day finished with Matsu attending a class about Politics and Negotiations. She learned a lot but half way through it seemed to stall out.

Matsu made a major move though and relocated to Tython and studied aboard the Will of the Force more the Floating Meditation. She practiced with objects and herself for days and nights until she was able to float somewhat at will after concentration. When she went down to Tython Matsu experienced a world rich in history she enjoyed the serene landscape and the people there. Slowly Matsu attended more classes and trained her powers, she met several more padawans. Finding a friend is Saia and even in Chora who seemed to open up. Matsu also met another padawan named Kelly Cross who had been on Tython for ten years. The padawan seemed angry about it which Matsu didn't understand completely. She had been picked up and kept on Coruscant for ten years only really being allowed to leave now to study.

For several weeks Matsu studied on Tython and got to know the people more. Mainly Chora and Saia but she met a plethora of other padawans including a wookiee who spoke through the force. She also met a Selkath who came out into the snow to meet her and Chora. Saia soon joined them and a snowball fight began with all sides except Matsu being in bulky clothing. Matsu also met a jedi padawan named James Blackwind who's master was killed in a crash and joined him on a mission to Hoth where she encountered a dark jedi and soldiers who were after a pirate named Dantell. When Matsu returned to Coruscant for her studies and to relax she journeyed around the city and found a nice tattoo parlor where she saw a beautiful image and entered. She got it put on her back and shoulder and thanked the artist and left with high spirits.
Matsu undertook a mission to capture a CEO who was selling secret and weapons to the Imperial Empire. She went with padawan Sera and Jedi Knight Christian Noble. The two Matsu would admit were strange Christian seemed to have an air of not being serous but Matsu saw him be serious. Sera on the other hand seemed to be too serious but she was skilled with her staff. After they caught the CEO Matsu returned to Tython for further studies. She attended a few classes but mainly studied to become a shadow. She made a check list of the powers she would need to learn to be a successful jedi shadow.

Matsu signed up for a large padawan field trip. They were going to go to a planet with saber crystals for the ones who didn't have a lightsaber. When she arrived at the transport she saw a lot of padawans she knew and Master Christian. As well as Saia and Chora and Matsu's heart skipped a beat as she sat down in the ship and expected Saia to join her but instead happened upon Chora who she held the trip. The Falleen fell asleep on her shoulder and Matsu smiled holding her close. When the transport arrived Matsu revealed to the others her new tattoo as the desert planets heat was high and she removed her coat and tunic leaving her sarashi. She also tried to make sure she was with the two girls who meant the world to her as she took Saia's hand and smiled at Chora. She didn't know how they would be together but Chora had an allure that was hard to resist.

As they marched through the desert Matsu remained by Chora's side until she saw Saia stop and could feel her brooding. Akacen still wasn't getting it and as she walked over with Chora offered her friend some encouragement. Akacen would come around eventually or he was an idiot or third option if he couldn't figure it out. Matsu would take him and make some it was pounded into his thick skull. As the three girls continued through the desert next to each other they came across the cave and it was surrounded by a market place. Matsu and Saia stayed close while Chora and the others went through and Chora went shopping. Saia stopped by a stall and was squealing like a girl at the sight of the cutest Voorpak that Matsu would admit had her excited too but she was well a little too rigid to say it. Slowly Matsu explained to Saia they couldn't afford it at the moment and Saia held her hands for the first time.... it felt good and Matsu noticed her skin glistening with sweat. Then quickly Saia was off running taking Matsu with her to the cave entrance where Matsu felt the cool breeze on her skin.
The entrance to the cave was fine but inside there were a bunch of Gran mercenaries. Matsu and Saia tried to be calm as Christian walked forward to talk with their leader. The other tensed and were ready to attack and when Christians force signature went into distress. The other began to run forward while more mercenaries swarmed them, their weapons were set to stun and Matsu and Saia both attempted to keep things calm while Chora, Kemp and Akacen began to fight the Gran. Saia took off to try and find the Gran leader as Matsu followed her, she didn't want to kill the creatures but she could knock them out. So Matsu used her body to knock out the gran and her saber to deflect the blaster bolts back at them.
The conflict was pointless and as Christian came running back with their leader the fighting stopped. Oneof the padawans had attacked and killed the mercs who were using stun settings. Christian called the rest of the expedition off and returned the padawans to Tython.

KESSEL THE RETURN HOME:

Matsu had prepared herself, the mission when she accepted it was simple find out if the guards were corrupt and turn them over to Alliance authority. What she hadn't told her masters when they allowed her to go was she had another motive. She was confused and felt strange but when she saw it posted to go to Kessel something called to Matsu. The prodigal daughter returns home and she checked where she was going. Jailhouse 41 was where her mother had been she worked with the Alliance to give her the same cell but they didn't know why. "One cell is as damp and bare as the next." They said but Matsu needed to be there she needed to learn her past. Katagiri was a good person but she hadn't told Matsu anything other then the story her mother told her. She wanted to find out information of the man who was her father.

When she arrived at the ship she was met by Chora who was coming also. Matsu didn't know that her friend was coming but she was glad for it. Chora could help her out and keep Matsu from making a mistake if she found what she was looking for. As they sailed through space Matsu mentally prepared herself for the planet many called hell and did everything she could to get ready. for a month her and Chora prepared exercising daily and getting booster shots. The spice and heat, mixed with poor food and constant wet floors would play hell with their systems. Matsu also marveled at Chora the woman was doing this to help her out, willing to walk into hell itself for her. She was beautiful more so then ever and Matsu would have to find a way to thank her when it was over, a simple thank you didn't seem to match the weight of gratitude she would have on her shoulders.

Soon they arrived after a botched prison break and Matsu was placed on the same cell as her mother. She even had the same style outfit. She was home where it all began. Slowly she regaled a tale of anger and woe. How she was born with a purpose to carry out the vengeance denied her mother. She told this to Chora who listened like a true friend. Matsu's head was swimming and her temple was pulsing, it seemed like something was there beneath the surface and on the way in she had felt something. A presence in the back of her mind that was angry and full of rage but also so familiar, Matsu guessed it was imprints of her mother left on the wall and in the halls. She had spent nearly a year in Kessel and stewed in her own lust for vengeance. So Matsu observed and tried to feel as she did, occasionally she would get a look from the older guards like they knew her face. They would comment and point but not speak then she saw the Warden and he stared at her long at processing. Slowly they were sent to their cell her and Chora.
As Matsu and Chora stayed in their cell waiting to be called into the mines the Falleen used her pheromones and charms to comfort Matsu who was feeling uneasy. For the few hours they had until their shift they made love on the damp and dirty floor of the prison cell her mother had been in and Matsu had never felt more happy. As she laid there nestled in Chora's arms Matsu jut breathed deep the scent of spice and Chora, Matsu relaxed and stayed there for the time until she remembered to hide the lightsabers and beacon. Quickly Matsu moved to hide them and she made a hole in the stone wall, she rejoined Chora and embraced the woman as they got dressed and listened for several minutes to the beats of her heart before a guard came and disturbed them.

Slowly Matsu and Chora were led from their cell to Jail House 41 an entrance to the mines and main prison of the asteroid. Matsu tried to sense but her senses were dulled by the overwhelming scent of spice and sweat and decay. Kessel really was hell and the smell of death hung in the heated air, Matsu then entered the airlock a room that separated the cells from the prison and she changed into a thermal suit. Her and Chora were in it now and learned the rules. They would work the mines for their shift and bring what spice they can. If they failed to bring in any they would be beaten and thrown in their cell. With a passive face Matsu walked with the other prisoners and felt her ass be smacked by a guard as she walked by.... then she felt Chora get angry and was glad she held her temper. There would be time and Matsu had learned the guards were armed. She slowly coming out on the other side realized how the temperature was shifting. in some places it was hot and in others it was cold.

When they got to the main mine Matsu stood with Chora and reached out with the force trying to sense the med bay, she didn't know which way to go but the other prisoners were going to the left so she decided to follow. A hapless prisoner died going down another path and Matsu didn't know if they could fight the spiders off and maintain their cover. Slowly Matsu and Chora walked hand in hand and came upon the other prisoners, they decided to make a break for it and Chora began a fight to distract the guards that were there as she and Matsu ran off down a tunnel. At the end of the tunnel Matsu stopped and stood looking around the maze like mine and reached out again. It was quiet here and she thought she felt something.... like a ghost or memory. Now she is on her search for the medical bay.
The search for the medical bay continued as Matsu and Chora went through the tunnels. They encountered a sleeping energy spider and slowly walked past it as they went on their way. Matsu could feel something and continued to see flashes of her mother throughout the prison mostly it was images of what her mother did in her quest for vengeance. When Matsu and Chora got to the older sections of the mine where the prison used to have a sub station. Matsu found where she was born. The room was how she remembered with rough rock walls and dim light, a high window that showed dust floating across it that looked like snowfall in the light. As Matsu felt something deep in her chest she looked up and saw the dust change color like it had when she was born and look like snow stained in blood. A fitting sight for her. She explained to Chora with tears in her eyes for the first time since she was a child why she what she was called growing up. A child of the Netherworld born for one purpose and no future. Chora held her as Matsu sniffled eventually regaining her composure as she looked around the room.

After Matsu regained her steely gaze she began to search around the abandoned facility. The place was in shambles but stuff still worked and Matsu slowly explored. She found a few journals and some information on a computer. When she heard a sound her head shot up and stared into the face of a guard who walked away. He either had seen her and didn't care or hadn't seen her there in the dim light. Chora went after him and Matsu followed stumbling and finding a holorecorder as she approached the man who was being manhandled by Chora. He seemed scared mostly towards her, like he had seen a ghost and his file said he had guilty feelings and was easily scared. Matsu didn't know what to do but she could press him for information.

As Matsu and Chora attempted to mind trick the guard, Chora went angry and attacked him. Matsu hadn't expected it and as she got memory flashes from the man and realized who she should have been really after. Slowly Matsu spoke to the man who was her father and wrapped his hand that had severed an artery. He gave her a journal that he had recorded what the warden had done. Matsu knew she would have to arrest him then and worried about Chora, the darkness and anger of the planet seemed to be getting into her. Matsu could even feel it in her pores as she and Chora carried her father back to the central chamber and ran down a tunnel. They encountered one of the energy spiders and Matsu and Chora ran the other way as they got in with the returning prisoners and were brutally sent tumbling into their cell.
As Matsu and Chora sat in the cell, Matsu embraced the woman as she tried to make sense of what had happened. She had found her father who wasn't the villain she thought. Chora had embraced the darkside at least for the moment but she could save her. Matsu got up and went over as she looked at the journal and spoke to Chora who had went to meditate. Matsu could feel whatever Chora was meditating on. The emotions washed over her like a heat and curled around her as she got up and walked over straddling her lover and pleading with her to stay in the light if for no other reason then to be with her. Matsu hoped her plea would work as she looked on and listened kissing Chora and pressing her head to hers as she tried to reach the part of Chora she cared for the good she had seen and the friend in the snow of Tython.

Matsu and Chora were taken back into the mine, the pair needed to find evidence of the Wardens corruption and so they headed for the offices. When they got there Matsu incapacitated the guard before Chora could kill him and went through the vents towards the mans office. Chora took some armor and weapons and caused a distraction as Matsu got the warden and began to search his office. She heard the fighting and opened the door using the warden as a shield. Matsu got Chora inside and used what skill she had with force healing to help. As Matsu got Chora into the room she and her both prepared to run for it. They had failed in their mission to infiltrate but as Matsu rushed through the vents and back to the cell it didn't matter. They had gotten the evidence and Matsu activated the beacon to get them retrieved.

After the Alliance arrived and Matsu and Chora helped arrest the Warden and Guards. The two spent the return trip in a room just sleeping in the bed and showering. It had been nearly two weeks from start when they were in the prison cell on the Alliance ship to now and the two were happy to be free. Matsu had waited while Chora showered and later she took hers. It felt good to get all the dirt and grime off her body as she finished and breathed deep the smell of Chora now no longer intermingled with the scent of spice and sweat. Matsu also had a number of things including the holorecorder and information about her mother. She had her father there and he was cooperating with the Alliance. Slowly Matsu prepared for the return trip to Coruscant and she was content to lay there in the bed with Chora holding her. She had kept her prison uniform as a reminder of her mother and got it cleaned enough to be kept in her closet.
Spoiler: Matsu 10



RETURN FROM HELL:

A week after Matsu returned from Kessel she found herself on a planet in the outer rim, it was a jedi stronghold world. There she met a woman in a veil named Lamia who was a Sith, not the religion but the actual species. She seemed strange but Matsu was willing to trust her. She wanted to prove her people were more then their past and that made Matsu agree. She wanted to prove she was more then just her mothers vengeance. She wanted a life beyond herself. This thought brought her to Kara Vaalki who was teaching a class. Although teaching may have not been the choice word. She seemed rather open about her own past and encouraged the others to share. She was strong and sassy was the best term to describe her. Matsu didn't know what else to think as she listened to the lesson. She still had what she learned from Kessel and decided it was time to explore its implications.

So Matsu returned to Coruscant and began to train more openly but still by herself. She hadn't seen Chora for awhile or Saia but when there was a big event planned she helped out in organizing it. A large padawan run through the undercity of Coruscant and all the way to the temple to learned the art of movement. When she arrived in the morning Matsu saw Saia but her friend was concentrating on the moment and playing music in her headset to run too. As much as Matsu wanted to just embrace her friend she didn't and began the run. They went through the undercity to a building parking garage and then through the Coco and senatorial districts of Coruscant until they came to the great expanse around the jedi temple and ran at it.

Soon Matsu's time on Coruscant was done and she returned to Tython on the Will of the Force and was asked by Saia to join her and Akacen in a duel. The three met in a room and the fight began, Matsu wanted to see how much Saia had improved since their first duel on Tython but she had to get Akacen out of the way first. She also wanted to talk with Saia and needed to do it in private. Their bond was strong and they seemed to be able to predict each other, Matsu could even feel at times Saia's thoughts as they went about the fight. What Matsu hadn't counted on was Akacen knowing how to block her Malacia but he did and even tried to reverse it. So when the fight actually started Matsu took flight she knew Saia could predict her technique with Falling leaf but she had a few other thoughts mainly after seeing Chora fight on Kessel her lovers temperament and fiery spirit had led her through hell and now she used that to her advantage mixing in flowing water and her speed. She might not be the strongest but her and Saia were the fastest there and if only she could coordinate with her friend that.
As the fight on the Will of the Force continued, Matsu and Saia became more coordinated in their attack on Akacen. While Saia was pacing herself Matsu was using the force to fight, she would throw out a push and Akacen would negate it with his own. Slowly her chest burned from exhaustion but she kept pushing cause she knew how to endure where Akacen was a kid and had been matching her force power for force power. He would be just as if not more then her thanks to his other powers augmenting his strikes and defense. When Matsu and Saia both got close enough Matsu jumped at him with her knees and elbows ready to knock him out of the fight so she and Saia could fight. Turn a three way into a two way duel as it were and Matsu wanted to see how they would both do, she could feel Saia's attacks same as Saia could feel hers.

As the fight continued on Saia and Matsu went at it while Akacen backed out exhausted. Saia and Matsu kept at each other until Matsu leaned against a wall when Saia didn't want to press with Akacen out. Her affection for him let Matsu rest as the fight went on, when Saia leapt at her and tried to hold her to a wall Matsu reached out and sensed nothing major as she remained still and trusted Saia to not harm her. As Saia landed the saber deactivated and Saia fell on her but as Matsu felt the heat of the saber and smiled. She had been correct and sat down helping Saia up as she held her friend. She smiled because in her mind she had won and showed Saia there was more then one way to win. Saia then told Akacen something and stayed there with Matsu for a while longer. Matsu on a small return trip met with Lamia again and was happy to see that the others were accepting her. She hoped the woman achieved her goal of showing her species wasn't just evil but had the capacity for good as well.

The next few weeks were eventful, Matsu helped another padawan build his lightsaber, she was taught by the battlemaster and she gained a master in Remy. Her master was going to teach her saber skills on Tython and Matsu was eager, she had been told that several others were being trained so she waited on Tython in the forest until her master arrived. Then on the Will of the Force Saia and Matsu trained together on the trip to Coruscant. They practiced control and Matsu explored her bond with Saia as she floated and held the girl. She had earlier in the session admitted to Saia how she felt and kissed her. As Saia cuddled next to her she had a force vision and Matsu felt it through their bond. Saia lost her place and fell to the floor where she kneeled and asked Matsu to meet her later on Coruscant. Matsu agreed and just held her friend until Saia left. She hadn't been rejected and Akacens actions were wearing Saia down. He either didn't get it or he didn't like her and wouldn't say it either way Matsu was the one he was driving her too and the small kiss she had on her neck was cherished as well as the scent and feel of her pressed close just floating.
Matsu eventually got a master in Remy, the older knight was mysterious and strong. She had come out of no where and taken up several padawans mainly Matsu and Saia. Matsu met her in the forests of Tython where she talked with her master and trained her better to use her saber. Remy was strong and fast but surprised when Matsu used Malacia in the fight, it wasn't strong but it had shown she wasn't just an average padawan. After their fight Matsu and Remy talked about a few things, mainly her connection to Saia, her past, James and how he sacrificed himself for her to escape on Hoth. They talked about how Matsu's past was a dangerous thing to reflect on, her mothers vengeance was like a poison. Slowly Remy sensed something in Matsu but didn't comment as they walked more through the forest.
Matsu was homesick if one can get that in the jedi and she returned to Coruscant where she rested up. Saia came to visit her and the two shared something more, the vision from the Will of the Force was stronger between them and Matsu saw Saia's dream while Saia saw Matsu's force vision from Kessel. The pain they felt from it was minimal as they awoke from the vision and slept, Saia was worn out and Matsu just held her friend who had curled into the fetal position. When they awoke Matsu and Saia got dressed and went out on the town, with a monthly stipend Matsu received from Katagiri's death she bought for her and Saia pet Voorpaks. The pair mused about getting something for Akacen but thought better of it as they left and went towards a droid shop. Inside Saia looked at a shield gauntlet and had thought of something but wouldn't say. As they continued Saia talked with the Neimodian as she haggled for a droid that was in Matsu's opinion scrap but the droid made Saia happy so Matsu bought it. She wanted her friend to be happy after her dealing with Akacen who still seemed to ignore her.

Later that night the pair stayed in Matsu's room and had a late night, they talked and tried again to share a vision. It failed but they could feel their bond open more as their bodies attuned to each other. They slept the night away and in the morning Matsu got up early and got them both breakfast. As they ate Matsu and Saia both decided to go and practice, Saia wanted to try a new idea she had for a weapon and Matsu just wanted to be with her friend. If fighting let that happen then so be it, as they entered the room Matsu locked it and stripped down to her Sarashi. She wanted this to be an even duel and both girls wore a full body wrap. Saia started with a sword and shield and Matsu stayed with a training saber, as the match went on Saia and Matsu dueled through the day. They went for over twelve hours and when it was dark Matsu and Saia were still going using only the power of their bond instead of the force. Matsu seemed to have Saia on the ropes who was working the defense, then she switched up her tactics as she ditched the shield and grabbed a spear style weapon.
The weapon was impressive and Saia's skill with it surprised Matsu but she had thought of something new also. Matsu grabbed a sword with a line taken out of the middle and they fought more, the battle went on until Matsu caught Saia's blade and had her again. Then Saia surprised her again. Saia tackled and punched her to the floor and Matsu took her opportunity and kissed her friend. As she laid there on her back looking up at Saia, Matsu could feel her conflict and then Saia kissed her back and Matsu's breathe caught when Saia pulled back. They were both sweating and the sarashi wrap was clinging to their bodies as Matsu got up and Saia went back to her room after grabbing some food. Matsu asked Saia to help protect her as she laid on the bed from her vengeance, Saia said Matsu was different and that she would be safe. Both were wearing their robes but nothing else. Their clothing was being washed by the housekeeping droids and Matsu laid Saia back straddling her she looked down the length of Saia's body and her breath caught in her throat. Her heart was beating so fast as Saia nodded to her and Matsu opened her robe spilling her sun-kissed flesh on her bed. Matsu opened her robe and led Saia to the head of her bed and kissed her plunging her tongue into her mouth. They didn't do more then that beyond stripping the robes off, Matsu was to nervous about scaring the woman who only now was letting her kiss her. So Matsu just caressed her skin and enjoyed the touch of Saia's warm body pressed against her.

They awoke in the morning and Matsu decided to do something with Saia about Probie her droid. They would try and get the parts to fix him at the temple but he would need more. Matsu watched as Saia got up in her room and she felt contentment. Chora was still her lover her girlfriend when they could sneak away together but Saia she had in her head. So Matsu watched and decided that she could love more then one person in her life. She got what she needed from both girls and after they got dressed Matsu and Saia went to breakfast taking Probie, R7 and their pet Voorpaks named Karma and Fluffy. As they ate Matsu and Saia talked more about what they would do and when Saia was going to leave for Tython. She and Saia only had one more day together unless Matsu was going to leave for Tython also, Matsu decided she would if only because there wasn't much she needed on Coruscant and Chora was on Tython also. After their food they went to the hanger to find the parts from the maintenance people who worked on the temple astromech droids. Matsu also brought a cloth and the paint she had bought for Probie.

After Probie was fixed and painted Matsu and Saia went to the garden of the temple where Matsu tried something. She wanted to spend time with Saia on a date or at least the jedi equivalent. She wasn't very good and rather clumsy with her words when she admitted she wanted to be with Saia more. They may have slept in the same bed but Matsu wanted to... wanted to... She wanted to take Saia out to a meal, she wanted to feed her strawberries and whip cream and hold her hand. Saia seemed sorry for Matsu, she seemed to feel the same way but didn't want to do that. Slowly they went back to Matsu's room and Matsu gave Saia her gift. It was the hilt for a lightsaber club that was nearly half their size and Saia was happy about it. Matsu had polished it to a silver shine and as she set it between them went to her knees on her bed. She and Saia talked a little more and Matsu cradled her face wishing she could be with her friend, Saia let her and slowly over the course of the day and night until they went to sleep Matsu and Saia made love. They explored each other with their lips and hands but also with the force through their bond. It was a sensory overload as Matsu fell asleep in her bed holding the younger woman and she buried her face in the scent of her hair. In the morning Matsu didn't wake up until Saia had left her room and departed on the Will of the Force
Matsu after several weeks of intense training under Remy was taken to the council chamber on Coruscant. There she was led into a dark room and surrounded by the jedi council. The grandmaster talked to her and severed her padawan braid from her sea of hair. As she exited the room and got to stand before Remy. She embraced the woman who was no longer her master but instead her friend. As Matsu left the temple she didn't tell many people she had been promoted. The first ones who would find out would be Chora and Saia. After she sent them the message Matsu used her free time to train as a jedi shadow. She also trained in the more unique techniques of Crucitorn and remain conscious. She was going to be able to endure under stress and pain. Matsu with the help of a few jedi taught herself how to properly fly with levitation and soured through the streets of Coruscant at night feeling the wind in her hair. Slowly after a few weeks it came time to pick a padawan but Matsu was disheartened, Chora was already a knight and Saia had a master. She decided to get a small cabal of padawans under her to train. So she picked five from the ranks and told them to assemble on Tython.
Slowly Matsu had begun as a knight, oh so slowly. She didn't choose a padawan at first but instead watched and learned. She went onto the Will of the Force and wanted to observe the padawans. There she met Cat again and Haloburner also. Matsu and Halo had become friends after the trip with jedi knight Mitya and the three observed Akacen and Sorn spar. It was going well the two seemed evenly matched. Until a newer child entered the room, Matsu barely noticed him until he began to attack the others. As Matsu sprung into action and ordered him to stop he attacked her and the padawans again. He was like a madman and this forced Cat to intervene stripping the training saber from the boy. The antics of the child seemed finished and then he attacked Cat drawing the brawlers attention more. Then Matsu felt it and moved aside, she could feel Kelly Cross anywhere and the knight stopped the padawan roughly pinning him to a wall. This finally got him to calm down long enough to explain his actions and they were idiotic. He wanted to impress the battlemaster and be his padawan. What Matsu had not expected was the battle master to actually show and demand why they did what they were doing. It was made more difficult when the battlemaster showed up, he was angry and was dead set to punish all three knights.

When Matsu returned to Coruscant she met back up with Haloburner and began to train her old masters padawan. Halo wished to build a lightsaber and learn how to properly use it. The two spent time together and Matsu enjoyed the woman's company, the trip had been fun and cemented their friendship she had hoped. If not then this teaching moment while Remy was away doing jedi business was helpful. After Matsu got the supplies she and Halo spent four days in meditation while the saber was built. After three days Matsu got up to eat and silently meditated outside the room. She was happy to see Halo later come out with her saber and then Matsu began to show her the basics of fighting with a lightsaber. When they finished with that Matsu planned on what to do with her student and had a few things. They could practice with the force and play a game but what seemed to at least her mind was mutual attraction. Or Halo just loved paying her the same type of compliments.

After her session with Halo Matsu rushed to Tython to meet her first three padawans. Sorn, Gin and James were a varied assortment of students and the first thing Matsu did was ask them questions. Then they moved onto a practice spar and Matsu stayed on the defensive. The two Sorn and Gin worked well together while James sat back and watched. Eventually Matsu moved from using just her blade to incorporating the force and her blade. Sorn fought smart and tried to outmaneuver her but Matsu's ability to fly and different force techniques kept her making the padawan on edge. Eventually Matsu phased behind a tree and jumped on the branch where she sat while Sorn destroyed a tree. Matsu finished the spar her padawan was becoming angry at her using the force in a fight but Matsu wanted him to understand that not all fights were just with a blade. It was her first lesson but then later they moved onto talking about the force and jedi conduct. Sorn seemed to be zealous an attitude that could be dangerous given what he witnessed when she took him as her padawan on the Will of the Force.
Matsu while she was out exploring came upon a small jedi conclave where they were healing the sick of a Mandalorian world. There she saw a female Togruta and began to work on healing her. When the woman was able to talk Matsu introduced herself and learned the woman's name was Akira Ven. Matsu talked with the girl and learned all she could about her. Akira was from Shili and had been a hunter. Now she was on the run from her clan who had hired bounty hunters to get her back. As they talked Matsu continued to work on the poor girl who wasn't used to used to the viruses of the galaxy. What for most was a common cold was debilitating for her and Matsu worked to get her as many vaccine shots as she could. She wanted the girl to be healthy and safe, she made the girl an offer to come with her to the jedi where she could live and be safe.

It was the day of her first class, Matsu had done a lot and getting the masters to approve it but it was here. Matsu got everything set up and ready, she was going to teach the padawans and knights if they decided to come in how to manage pain. As the students filed in she told them what they were doing and the point of the course. The student took to it and as they went through managed to get the jist of it and learned to overcome their physical limitations. Andreus was the one at the top of the class, followed by Haloburner and Fanai. The small Kushibar was hurt beyond belief by Hal who while victorious in the combat didn't feel the pain and push past it. He didn't fail as he learned force body but didn't learn the other techniques like his fellow students. Near the end of the course Matsu participated in a final duel with Hal. It didn't matter if she won or lost it the point was to show she was in it just as much as them. Matsu ran the course and took the hits then moved into the duel with Hal. After the class Matsu congratulated everyone and gave them all some finishing words of advice.

After the class Matsu was preparing to leave. It was at this time Andreus after partially healing approached her and offered after overhearing her. He was offering to teach her to fly and Matsu was thankful. He asked her if she wouldn't mind bringing Akacen along and he was invited as well. As they waited for Akacen to arrive she prepared herself getting dressed and hitting the refresher while healing her small wounds. When Akacen arrived she and he got the full course. Andreus was thorough and taught them to run over everything on the checklists. As they went outside he made lists what what needed to be replaced and he made it for JH-41. Matsu went and talked sending a message to Grace an engineer on Coruscant. When she couldn't get a hold of her Andrues suggested getting the parts from Empress Teta and she agreed. The upgrades from Grace could wait while she got the ship repaired. As the parts came in she and Andreus with Akacen repaired the ship into operational order and Matsu got her first experience with Andreus as her co-pilot. With the seating she was behind him but he walked her through it as both her and akacen learned to properly pilot.
Matsu met with another of her Padawans a Kushibar named Fanai. The small girl had been in Matsu's class and been hurt so after that Matsu accepted her as a padawan. She was talented and Matsu saw her more as a blank slate she could teach. As they trained Matsu tried to get through to the young girl and made some of the training into a game. This seemed to upset the girl and as training continued the Harlequin flew through hyperspace and Matsu gave her padawan a tour of the ship. Then it was back to training as Matsu taught Fanai force skills and later after Fanai got frustrated and upset Matsu talked with her. It was strange that she used a motherly tone and set her to bed without dinner. Matsu left the plate of food out for Fanai should she decide to eat and went to bed getting up the next morning to continue their training.

Matsu landed the Harlequin at Bakura and exited while Fanai slept. The little padawan had been exhausted and Matsu let her sleep while she walked around. A disturbance caught her attention and Matsu made haste to a hotel where a man named Jael was with another Padawan she knew. Naisa had appeared on the world and Matsu wanted to get her back to Tython lest her master miss her. She gathered the two the man and Naisa and was about to leave when a woman attacked them. She wasn't a very good assassin announcing herself and using wasteful attacks. Matsu watched her flee in a puff of smoke and brought the two to her ship. She talked briefly with Naisa and discovered the young Trandoshan had a lacerated head wound. As she stitched it up and applied Bacta Matsu spoke trying to help her. As the time went on Naisa after being patched up went to lay down and Matsu talked with Jael. He was a wandering jedi and had lost his master now she was taking him back to Tython to rejoin the jedi.

THE CALLING

The time had come, Matsu had gotten her request granted and gathered Lamia. The two went to the high council on Tython and met with the grandmaster. It had been a long time coming but Matsu wanted Lamia to be allowed in the jedi order. Beric was stern and eyed them both but Matsu had come to far and trusted too much in Lamia to let the pureblood down. As beric talked and excused Matsu from the chambers she meditated. As the doors opened Matsu watched as Lamia told her she was allowed as a padawan to Matsu. Matsu felt an excitement that could not be contained and began to plan as she ran off to get Lamia her things. The two womans exited to the Harlequin to leave the planet and were joined by their jedi watchdog who Matsu guessed had orders to kill Lamia if she showed any signs of the darkside.

During the time while Lamia was undertaking a crash course as an initiate Matsu explored the temple and came across a number of students training. It was here she met a younger initiate named Tessa who was leagues ahead of her class. Matsu was impressed and talked with the young girl for hours offering her some training. As they progressed from blade work to stance to force powers and finally to knowledge.

Matsu never saw the little girl falter and take everything in stride and as they had a small contest to see how many droids she could disable in sixty seconds Matsu applauded. Then they started on her studies and what she wanted to learn. Matsu gave her a few pointers for Ateru with a single blade but didn't understand the mechanics of a saber staff at the time. They continued to speak while the girl relaxed and rested, when that was over Matsu asked her to preform a very dangerous and complicated routine. It was optional but she hadn't said it and when the girl Tessa did it flawlessly Matsu could not allow talent like hers to wither waiting for a master.

She plucked the ripe girl and made her the offer to be a padawan on board the Harlequin. When Tessa accepted Matsu was happy and let her go and get her things as Matsu smiled to herself. Tessa would hopefully be with her for a long time and she could teach the girl what she knew. The small things she told her about late night visitors on the ship was suspicious to her but the little girl while questioning didn't push. Matsu wanted to present a stable home on the ship and it wasn't time for her padawan to know that she was sometimes visited by a lover when they touched down on certain planets. or when the moment arose, Chora was busy with her own padawans.

Matsu found her way to Taris and into a dueling arena. It was strange she had gotten a feeling like a voice was crying out for help. So she came and observed a young girl fight. Her stage name was the Blind Bandit and she was strong in the force. Matsu approached her after the talked with her. Afterwards they were approached by a sith and he wanted the girl, it was rather strange and Matsu gave him the chance to leave. When he didn't she refused to draw her blade to fight him and instead used her parasol to protect herself and Ophenia as that was the girls real name. When she saw the chance Matsu phased herself and Ophenia into a lower level and ran to her ship across the upper city.

They arrived at the landing pad and Matsu put the girl in the ship before returning to the arena cause Chora arrived. On the ship Kelly was waiting and had come pending her trial and judgement from the jedi council. Matsu returned to help Chora and observed her lover using the darkside much to hr shock. As Matsu moved to intervene another sith came in and attacked after Chora attacked her. Matsu moved quickly grabbing Chora and using their bond she calmed her enough to phase them both through a wall and into the ship as it flew past over head. As they phased into the ship Matsu collapsed the strain of phasing people too much for her and Chora carried her to her bunk and held her hand. Much of the memory for Matsu is forgotten. She cannot recall watching Chora use the darkside or what happened to the sith but she awoke with Chora near her bedside and there had been an attack. They stopped to get the ship repaired.

Matsu got the ship repaired by the Engineer Grace and upgraded to new specifications. The cost was high but she needed space for all of her new padawans. The process was long but eventually the repairs were underway and fully paid for, it might have costed a pretty penny but as Matsu watched the engineer work she was impressed. Graces bots stripped it and refitted it adding more rooms and floors. and storage for the food. After a few days the engineer deemed it ready and Matsu smiled going off to Kessel. She had an appointment to keep.

It was important now, Matsu went to Kessel to meet the man she knew as he biological father. He was serving his time and they had talked a little more. Their talk was uninformative but Matsu still didn't know if she got to the heart of the matter. Something was bothering her and as she walked back to the ship came up with a plan. She sent a message to Saia and Chora asking them to come. Matsu also went into her room where she found strands of hair on the pillow that belonged to Saia. She set it into the computer and began a check to see if Saia's DNA matched any on record. As she waited for the test to conclude and the ship to arrive on Tython Matsu was alone with her thoughts. She loved both women and there was also Halo to consider in the equation she hadn't told the two about Halo. As the test concluded Matsu reeled a little weak in the knees. Her DNA matched Saia's on the side for their father and her world shattered while trying to think of what to do next.

It was simple she should tell Saia... No she would not tell Saia... No what if she found out? She could tell Saia in secret yes that would work no one beyond the three of them would know. As Saia and Chora arrived Matsu hid the results and greeted them both with a kiss. So she was a little minx who enjoyed the strength of Chora or the silky touch of Saia. She was allowed too and that was how she broke it to them. Saia and Chora both took it well and Saia went after being initially upset to meditate while Chora asked Matsu to be and maintain monogamy. It was a request and Matsu agreed promising to only make love to Chora. When they parted it was happy and joyful with Matsu looking forward to the future.

Matsu was sent a strange request, a padawan of another master wanted her to teach him. Matsu met with Varrion and began his training anew. He was slightly skilled and socially awkward. As the training began Matsu found herself working twice as hard not because Varrion was bad because she had never actually been around a Miraluka before it was difficult at first Matsu continued to nod her head in disapproval and approval but eventually she got into a rhythm with Varrion. As they practiced saber techniques Matsu found herself working to keep up but continued to quiz Varrion. Then it came time to test out his force training. He was good but was lacking something and Matsu figured it out. Her padawan was too concerned with strength and attacking where the enemy was when he should have been looking at the entire battle field like a chess game.

He continued to attack and come after her getting better as time went on but he was still slow and sluggish allowing Matsu to get the advantage. Later that day they entered the garden and talked with Matsu teaching Varrion about the plants and some force powers. As time went on in their training Varrion went on a vision quest to build his lightsaber and this led him to Tattooine and then back to Tython. It was a long journey but eventually he had completed it and Matsu and Varrion tested it out. He was better with it but still relied on his sight when Matsu robbed him of that she saw him working on different ways to see. Varrion proved her was doing well and Matsu was happy to call him her padawan.

Matsu finally had gotten clearences for Lamia, her new padawan a Sith Pureblood was training with her. They went to the Harlequin and were met by their jedi watchdog. Matsu began from the beginning with the jedi code and rules of engagement as they went over them and meditated letting the ship sail through space towards their destination. After meditations Matsu and Lamia had a light spare with Matsu pushing Lamia to her limit while Lamia made Matsu have to work for the draw, her size and weight disadvantage was apparent to most of her opponents and needed to get stronger or more powerful in the force.

They kept going and talked as Matsu felt the intense stare of the jedi watchdog, when Matsu asked Lamia if she knew where they were going and her padawan answered correct. Matsu came out as they dropped out of hyperspace at Nar Shadda and when they landed and paid for docking their watchdog had mysteriously disappeared. As they explored around Nar Shadda port Matsu and Lamia went into an obscure shop and came across a few trinkets. The antique owner was smarter then he looked and after he learned what Lamia was he tried to make her and matsu pay more for an old sword. It was worth what they paid and Lamia reactivated it claiming it was the sword of Kressh and her family sword.

After the shop they went around and searched for more artifacts finding a translation amulet that Matsu worked on purifying the amulet as they walked and met an old woman. She was strange a point in the force Matsu had not met before and this intrigued the jedi knight. They all went into a diner for a meal and Matsu had her first taste of blood soup and a hearty beef stew while they talked. The woman was an old jedi who left and order and came to Nar Shadda, Matsu had been partially correct in her assumptions but didn't know the reason why she was ousted from the order.

Matsu returned to the temple on Tython and met for a brief moment a padawan. He was strange but determined and slowly as they went on Matsu changed her mind. The man wasn't focused and lacked the will to do anything beyond boast she she sent him to the council of reassignment for a new station. With her time wasted Matsu found use for it and began to study lightsaber combat forms and powers. It was enlightening to know what she could gleam and slowly Matsu began to practice the forms for herself. She wasn't an expert but she loved the idea of knowledge and wanted to know all she could to better teach.

As she trained in forms 2, 3, 5, 7, and some of the more unorthodox Matsu began to understand the strengths and weaknesses but also knew she could teach her padawans should they desire to learn such forms. She began to study more exotic powers to alter the environment and area around her while also focusing inward. The final thing she did was gather more crew for her ship and go over padawans who were in need of a master. She saw a few and took interest sending them messages of where to meet her for training.

Matsu met one of the padawans she had researched named Jael he was the one she met on Bakura with Naisa. It was a strange thing seeing him again but Matsu began training him, his anger was disconcerting as he fought and came at her not to spar but actually seeing to want to do harm. After a small talk Matsu acknowledged him and sent him to the reassignment council, it was strange the second padawan to be sent and she had little else to do while the other ones trained.

She spent time with them and taught what she could but furthered her research into the force and saber combat. She was mainly interested in her ability to bond easily with others and gathered her padawans who had bonded with her. She taught them and trained them and together they seemed to have enhanced coordination and skill. As time went on Matsu's bonds with her padawans and fellow jedi became something interesting and she seemed to get personality traits of them and some of their talents.

It was a peaceful time and Matsu entered the room of a thousand fountains as she looked around. She saw Cat for the first time in a long time since their punishment at the hands of the Battlemaster and she kneeled greeting the man who had taught her Teras Kasi. He was cute but she didn't want to lead him on and as they talked about her padawans and his new one she smiled offering him a chance to join her as she went home to Rhen Var.

The day ended with them training in the moves he had taught her on the Will of the Force. It was an intense training regiment but Matsu was taught the full range of Teras Kasi moves and techniques including the Steel Hands move which was hard to master. They finished and Matsu thanked Cat with a small kiss on the cheek as he went off to be with his padawan and she returned to her.

Rhen Var she was home and as they departed the ship. Her padawans were going to ascend the stairs and train for three weeks, when they reached the top Matsu told everyone the game plan. Cat, Chora, Melira and Lamia were all there to help train the padawans in their skills. The first day was a success as Matsu and all the knights and primes began teaching the students. She trained in force powers while Melira taught Niman and Cat taught Teras Kasi. Matsu spent a little time with Chora and was happy as she rolled her shoulders and practiced force techniques away from the temple learning how to properly alter the environment and kinetite energy balls.

The three weeks were a slow process but rewarding for all in with Matsu creating her first set of lightsabers and deepening her relationship with Chora. She had also been made to turn down Cat who had a crush on her. It was sweet but she didn't know how to explain that to Cat. It took her some time to think after he said he wanted to try a relationship with her. He seemed to take that she was a lesbian and in love with Chora, afterwards things were slightly awkward between them but smoothed out. As the three weeks came to a close Matsu felt stronger and it showed in her knowledge of saber forms and force powers. She had also learned techniques from Lamia about her peoples alchemy and history.

It was a strange feeling, almost like a twinge of guilt as Matsu sat in her ship and it sailed through space towards the ship. A senior jedi had called them all here to the ship and she was curious that none of the council had been asked. As Dai began to speak he made the intentions clear. They were gathered to discuss asking the council to step down. The Sith threat was quickly escalating and the council wasn't preparing for anything.

He asked them to hear him out and he made sense as then he provided a ledger and one by one they all went up and signed. Matsu agreed things had to be done with the thread looming but didn't fully know if this would be the best way. As the group departed Matsu returned to her ship and took it in for service. She had contacted the Mandalorians and they were willing to upgrade her ship for a favor owed to them. Seemed their admiral liked the idea of having a jedi owe a debt to the Mandalorians and Matsu wasn't one to argue after she saw what he could do to her ship and how much it would be altered and improved. As the altercations went underway Matsu spent time practicing with them in the battle circle. She didn't win many of her matches but she competed on their terms and without the force. She garnered respect and some cheers. As the altercations finished Matsu bowed and said one day she would return.

Matsu met with Kaji a younger jedi and began to train him. he was talented and she was lucky to have him after the several other padawans who seemed to flounder and need reassignment. Her training with Kaji proved beneficial and his skills well done enough to strike out on his own. He is her padawan and reports back to her but has reign to partake in missions. She spent the rest of their training time making sure he could handle situations and was pleased with his progress. The council was for the moment only two members and things were in turmoil with the Alliance as well. The troubles the padawans and knights could help out with was needed and several missions to keep the peace and protect people were underway.

Matsu had been tasked with finding an ancient jedi tomb. The jedi may have buried a holocron in the tomb and Tessa along with Lamia both of who have had expressed an interest in history. As they explored the three sensed something, it was a Sithspawn and going for the tomb. Matsu made haste with the two and caught sight of it as they came to a bridge in the large cavern and confronted the sithspawn.

As she fought it Lamia and Tessa went towards the tomb to search. Matsu used her powers to draw his attention and began to collapse the bridge. As the stone broke for the bridge Matsu flew around and got to the other end as the Sithspawn came at them. She and Lamia unleashed a blast of electric judgement from her family sword. It wasn't the cleanest but as the sithspawn fell into the abyss Matsu, Tessa and LAmia all went back towards the ship. Matsu flew the two and they returned to the ship with a holocron in their hands. Tessa was the first to use the holocron and discovered it was for an ancient jedi healer named Wisteria. As Tessa learned its data Matsu watched and followed coming in when it was over and they talked and practiced the techniques on the holocron.

Matsu had heard the news, the trial of Kelly cross came and she hurried to Tython. It wasn't because she thought she could make a difference but more she wanted to show support to her friend. It was a small gesture but Matsu was there and as Kelly exited the council chambers she ran after her friend, Kelly avoided her until she got to her room and asked. The news wasn't good and Kelly wanted to be alone.

Matsu obliged and stood with Delta as Kelly left, she didn't follow instead went back to her ship and left a note for Kelly. She didn't know the fate of the padawan who had caused the trouble but her friend was being exiled for... For what? For stopping a fight that had been taken to far. Matsu left for her ship and met her crew at it the ship and headed off. She went out to meet the rest of her padawans and begin their training.

Matsu returned to the Will of the Force and met Naisa again, the padawan was to be hers and she greeted her. They began their training and Matsu learned how much Naisa knew of hand to hand combat. Naisa was good, better with her hands and feet then with a saber or even force strength. Matsu had to work at it a bit but she knew what her padawan was doing and began to use Teras Kasi to duel and counter. When the fight concluded Matsu and Naisa talked and began to discuss what her padawan held dear.

It was an interesting conversation and Matsu learned a lot about the woman from her past to her hopes and dreams. As they meditated her force knowledge allowed her to offer the most basic boost and help to Naisa's training and the pair sat for hours just silently meditating in the training room aboard the Harlequin. The training was time consuming but as they went through it got better and easier as their familiarity grew. Naisa was talented and Matsu proud. As the first week ended Matsu found herself in the outer rim on a merchant planet. She found a decommissioned droid and a talented mechanic named Remy. It was a strange thing but the failed jedi padawan was there with her friends and fellow students.

Matsu met with a new padawan and was surprised, the twi-lek was beautiful and she was happy to see her. It was short lived her training would be cut short and the girl had to be sent back. It wasn't her fault she was just recalled and Matsu used what spare time she had to visit other failed padawans. It wasn't very appealing to the masters who watched them but as she looked upon them and saw potential in each Matsu nodded her approval.

She gathered eight from this planet of Padawans who had not been able to cut it and made them her crew. An all force user crew could come in handy for defense and helping out. The ship was three times bigger and had plenty of room for each of them including a forth level that was her room and the primary training room. With her crew gathered and the droids Remy brought along Matsu had a full ship and her padawans a home that was designed to function for long periods of time in space. They set off to have fun and adventures.

After her last padawan Matsu began teaching Qyv, the man was older then her and seemed insulted that she was his master. As they talked she couldn't get to the root of his problems but he wanted to learn and they dueled. It was a strenuous duel not because he was her better but he wanted her to use a style she had never used before. It was difficult to wield two blades at first and Matsu had wished she practiced more. The duel lasted a descent amount of time but Matsu was out classed she hadn't been ready for this and didn't know her own techniques as she fought.

It ended with her losing true but the mans concern is what cinched it for her. He was peaceful and calm in victory and offered to heal her as they went to meditate. He was troubled with visions and Matsu again was unable to help him, her visions were hers and sharing them hard to do. His were of terrible things that he could not shake. Matsu tried to get him to let go but he refused and left the training room. As he left Matsu remained silent and allowed him to leave as she gathered her things and returned to the ship.

Matsu found herself drawn back to Coruscant, Remy had been missing after Tanaab and Halo was left to her own devices. Matsu returned to see her friend and offer her training. It wasn't much of an offer Halo was very well trained, Matsu would only work to complete the training. Together she and Halo went to eat and talked about all they had done and the last time they were on the planet together and got tattoo's. They continued to eat and Matsu offered to take over training Halo until Remy returned, the blonde agreed and Matsu with her new padawan prime went back to the Harlequin. They set off towards the outer rim worlds to help people and train but also so Matsu could meet with Myra Subach at a ship yard and see the status of The Harrowing her cruiser the woman was restoring. It was nearly done and crew had been found but still she needed officers and put out the call through Myra. She needed a proper bridge crew and eventually she would have one.

Matsu took Melira to an unknown world that she found in the jedi database. It was a strange world but thankfully not near sith space as they landed. The darkside was strong and after some directions they found their way to a triple set of pyramids in the jungle. They went to the top where a destroyed alter was and was going to be a place for Melira's trail. Matsu pointed to a cave and Melira entered undertaking her trail, as time went on Matsu meditated outside and practiced mental techniques for calming herself in a fight or just to regain a connection to the force when fatigued to help. It took some time but eventually Melira came forward and rejoined her master outside they talked a little but what transpired for Melira was deeply personal and Matsu respected that.

They returned to the ship and made way as the crew finished with the rest of the accommodation. Now the Harlequin was fully operational and made ready for training Matsu's padawans. With the several droids wandering around able to help. The last thing needed brought Matsu all the way back to Kessel prison and the charge of Asami Asaki a prisoner who was at one point a jedi. She was violent and dangerous but skilled and able to help out on the ship. Matsu believed in her and so she was given the prisoner and acted as her warden retraining her in the jedi initiate arts so she could use her abilities and saber if needed.

The time had come Matsu had been summoned by a senior jedi and was one among others who listened. the Threat from the Sith was coming and the jedi were ill prepared to protect the people. Worse the grandmaster and council were not doing anything. As she listened it was something she could agree with and willingly signed the ledger with a number of others. She wasn't allowed to join them as they went to the council chambers but hard the news and how the grandmaster and battlemaster left the jedi order.

Later news had them popping up in Sith Space under a new banner and with the failure of the Jedi at Tanaab Matsu focused on her padawans and the few that were approaching knighthood. With her crew of jedi trainees and padawans Matsu continued to travel around the galaxy and remain mobile to avoid unneeded attention when they got close to sith space. The others were happy to travel and get a full experience and her lessons with Mitya about travel had been taken to heart. Matsu began to train herself is force techniques like call and navigation, her flying lesson had been on par she learned with back water bush pilots and with the help of Serin and Kelly Cross, Matsu learned how to properly fly and handle ships. The lessons were valuable and Matsu was glad her friend was doing well the jedi exiling her was a stupid decision and hopefully with the new regime it would be reversed.

The meeting was set, Matsu with Tessa and Lamia were meeting with the Loremaster of the jedi Leech something it didn't matter to her. She wanted to get the objects to him as soon as she could and leave to continue training her padawans. As they entered Matsu got the distinct impression of ignorance. Kelly had told her all about the class she had had with the Lore Master and how when she made a good point and actually made a revelation he brushed it off and proved his ignorance.

So he was unimpressive but propriety called that she respect him for his rank and title as befit him. The opening words of the conversation showed his feelings when mention of Lamia came and she sensed his disgust. Matsu didn't care for people like him who judged a species based on their past. She hadn't and believed her padawan faster then a master who let personal feeling get in the way. As the conversation went on Matsu tried to hold back her lunch at the way he ignored Lamia and when it was over she had relinquished into a case Lamia's family sword as well as her translation talisman.

Later that night Matsu under the cover of the shadows broke a rule and entered the reliquary retrieving her padawans family sword with case, her talisman and several ancient holocrons with other items. It wasn't greed at the knowledge but the few scrolls and tomes she got out had stories and histories that could prove valuable to a proper teacher about the past and history of the jedi.

The ship was complete, with the help of the Mandalorians, and Myra Subach the Harlequin and Harrowing was finished. The ships had been repaired and upgraded to Matsu's specifications and requirements. As she displayed the new ship Matsu met with her padawans and crew on board the Eclipse station in the deep core and invited more to look at it. Ebberla came and the pair shared a drink. For the first time Matsu got intoxicated and watched her padawans Lamia and Varrion share an intimate moment while she curled up next to Chora.

It was a strange site all of her friends there and crew with Varrion being the odd one out and the only male. As she got more to drink Matsu was asked and force persuaded to do several things by her padawan Lamia all in good fun but Ebberla kept her safe while Chora looked on and even got Matsu to loosen up enough to preform a table dance for everyone. It was fun a relief of sorts for Matsu to let her hair down and have a little fun. Then Halo showed up and scolded the others that they shouldn't take advantage of her in this state and Matsu watched Ebberla leave rather then argue. After Matsu was put in hr bed and left to sleep it off she awoke a day later and began to continue her training with the scrolls and in the use of alter environment.

We met a large cat on a stop over, Samantha and Risty came across him and brought him back to the ship. It was strange but I didn't sense anything bad from him and he knew Jedi Master Christian. He asked to use our communications to contact him and we agreed letting him contact the jedi to get a hold of him. After sometime we got a place to drop him off and took him saying farewell and Matsu getting the name Delun. After they dropped Delun off Matsu made way to Ossus and explored with her crew.

They were looking for anything they could find and found several scrolls and lightsaber crystals. As the time passed Matsu etched out a small section of the library for herself and gathered what intact and partially intact items she could for study and to adorn the Harrowing chamber. Several of her padawans helped and were trained as they restored what they could of the pottery and banners. It was an interesting history lesson one that taught what needed to be done in times past and the nature that had overgrown the buildings their use of plant surge and talking with the plants to move and reveal their secrets helped greatly find a small cache of holocrons some blank and ready to be recorded upon.

Matsu with a small contingent of jedi made their way to Nar Shadda to find a Doctor who was offering to sell Sith secrets to the Jedi and Alliance. They arrived and met up herself and two crew as well as Arek and a younger padawan she didn't know the name of or species. While they made their way to the doctors office Matsu sensed something and made haste for the office. When they arrived they found bodies and saw the person who killed them there, Matsu gave chase with her padawans and the others followed. As the chase intensified Matsu unleashed the storms fury and called down lightning to stop him with the others cornering him in an alley.

He was stopped for a bit and when he escaped to a building top Matsu took off going after him and chasing while the others navigated down below. he was chased from the roof and injured when the others surrounded him. With no where left to run the man attacked them forcing Matsu and the others to defend themselves. The fight was fast paced and quick with the numbers game taking advantage and with enhanced coordination from Matsu they subdued him and caught the killer. He was taken to the Harlequin and under the constant guard from the jedi crew awaited transport to an Alliance ship. As they flew towards the Alliance space Matsu continued her training.

Time was short she was preparing herself for the trials and had seen a number of her padawans knighted. The others that had failed she counted in her totals but they failed for other reasons then just her early teachings. They failed form their personalities and actions. It was sad but needed to help her improve and as she delved deeper into the jedi lore and histories, things started to come together and between what Kelly showed her she silently agreed with her friend.

When the time came for her trials Matsu was denied on the basis she was two young. Something she disagreed with as age wasn't the only factor in things. There was skill and she had plenty enough to go around. As she sulked and went into the library on Tython Matsu continued to read and train herself. She wasn't a fighter anymore she was something better a repository and she could remember anything she read, heard or did thanks to her force enhanced senses. This helped her train others and teach them about the light but she could never force them.

She knew that not everyone fit into the box that had been created they were unique but she could guide them and train them to follow the light cause it led to a longer life full of promise where as the darkside led to really only one purpose and result. Eventually someone came and took your position and you were no longer the sad little king of a sad little hill with delusions standing. Matsu after her study session met with Zanna a nice padawan who she was happy to teach. It all started well and good then her padawan failed as well so many of them seemed to not be able to hadle the jedi lifestyle it was very sad.

Matsu in her slump after failing another padawan andd being turned down by the idiot grandmaster went to Tython to meet with Ebberla, the talented jedi knight was skilled in Shien form and Matsu wanted to learn all she could about the style. As her and Ebberla met a few words were exchanged but mainly they got to the lesson. Matsu knew her well enough they they had jokes but were not ones to just outright dally and waste time. They spent the better part of the day getting the form correct and then striking at targets, as night fell Matsu and Ebberla headed back to the temple with some burns on her hands to which she asked Matsu to help her heal them.

Matsu agreed and showed Ebberla how to heal and after the jedi knights hands were healed she practiced on Matsu who burned her hands for the cause. It wasn't a dangerous burn just a flash really but Ebberla did well and Matsu gave her the approval for the work she deserved. As they parted ways finally Matsu took a moment on Tython to scout around and gather what extra equipment she could mainly for lightsaber construction and several holocrons on combat.

She may not have had proper access but she had seen a number of other masters go into the vaults and knew all their codes so it would look like they had went in there and borrowed a number of different things. Chief among them now was some banking information from the computers for jedi accounts that she could transfer discreetly into her own. As night fully descended on the temple Matsu made her move and began to go towards the mountains. She had a ceremony to preform.

Matsu stood after a long day ready, her crew was all standing around in a circle as three padawans finished their meditations. It was a time of reflection and as she prepared the ceremony and oversaw their transition into knighthood. Matsu was proud of Melira she had promised to help her reach knighthood and had succeeded in that promise which just filled her heart with joy. As the knighting ceremony continued Matsu made sure they all were properly conducted and then left it was there time and they did not need her and the others hanging around impeding on them.

She returned to the Harlequin and set in her room and meditation chamber the holocrons she had taken from the jedi vaults. The additional equipment had gotten there and she smiled setting in in place as they left the planet for Naboo and Matsu began to construct a new lightsaber from a few ideas she had. As the ship sailed in hyperspace Matsu completed construction of a lightsaber fashioned of ultrachrome and emblazoned with symbols detailing its use. It was the first lightsaber she created by herself and as she activated it the palest blue blade came out. For Jar'kai it would work with her midnight blue blade and be the darkest and palest shades of blue.

Matsu arrived on Naboo and decided to explore it wasn't often she got to the worlds for anything more then a mission or a job. Instead she was rather looking forward to just taking in the sites and spending a little of the jedi credits she had borrowed. A fitting things since they refused to even acknowledge her or give her a chance when it came to her master trials. As she joked and spent the credits a presence appeared and it set her on alert, a ship had passed by overhead and Matsu knew something dangerous was on it as she moved quickly and went with two of her crew members to see.

She found him a large wolf named Tsume who had come to explore. A sith this deep in alliance space was trouble and not the kind she enjoy it could herald an attack or in some cases it could spell danger to the people. MAtsu spoke with the wolf and learned why he was there as she was joined by Andre who talked also saying Tsume could be an independent force user and not be bound by the jedi or sith. A goal she supposed but a dangerous one if he was open and alone the sith would be more the tempting offering what he wanted but not what he needed which was the jedi. Slowly Tsume agreed to come with Matsu to the jedi under her protection and they left.

Returning to Coruscant with Tsume was quickly done as Matsu led the young sith to meet the new lore master of the jedi. It was a small thing and as Matsu got there it was clear she wasn't needed but asked to stay anyways... why? She didn't know but she was going to keep Tsume under her protection as she listened to him speak and the lore master welcome him to the jedi. When they finished she parted ways with Tsume and wished him luck. She hadn't been to Coruscant in a while and she moved from the temple to the marketplace after she checked out a few holocrons and got resupplied for the ship.

Her business in the marketplace went well and she got a new tattoo on her ribs as she and Serah had started to become good friends with her offering her a permanent position on her crew cause well it was free room and board with access to jedi accounts. So she cold get the best equipment, Serah was willing to come with Matsu being on of her best repeat clients and with the help of Matsu and her crew they packed up and moved her things. The tattoo artist Matsu had known and gone to for years was now going to be a permanent fixture on her crew and she was glad it would bring a sense of grounding to everything.

Matsu stayed on Coruscant for a while, Varrion was preparing to take his trials and there were reports that an elder jedi had been killed. Matsu joined the investigation and saw Ebberla, Dartel, Varrion also there as she saw Teline Deloi again and listened. The old jedi had died of a heart attack and the entire time everyone put out reasonable answers that were shot down and told wrong by Deloi. Ebberla left first and Matsu followed after the knight was taking and using a situation to stroke his already inflated ego which was sickening. The man deserved more respect then a jedi exploiting his death for whatever reason, she left and after a small talk with Varrion entrusted him to Dartel to continue.

She would be at the ship. She caught up with Risty and Saki at the cantina across the street and talked with them about the investigation and submitted her report to the council and temple. She doubted they would handle it with Deloi being a pet at the heels of the council. It was one of the few times when she was truly sickened at the state of the new council, they disregarded anyone who didn't drop to their kness in front of them. As the night waned on Matsu saw Varrion and Dartel and invited them over to talk about it seemed only Deloi remained since no one wanted to continue to stroke him.

Turning over the dangerous Tach proved difficult despite several trips no one in the Alliance wanted to take custody of the man and it wasn't until Mitya intervened and brought a prison transport that she was able to officially hand him over to Alliance officers. The ordeal was over and she disliked it thankfully the annoying padawan who acted superior was gone with Tach and Matsu was able to go and relax. It was a small flight but they got back to a normal routine with Matsu docking on the Harrowing as her padawans with the exception of Varrion who had passed his trials.

She was proud of him and glad to have trained him and now was time to focus on the others. She worked with Naisa, Ophenia and Tessa to better teach them what to do with the force. Naisa was skillful in Echani arts and as a jedi that could prove effective. For several weeks they trained and even brought in the reclusive Lamia to help and train. As Matsu prepared her padawans or the time ahead she spared a few moments to think about her other padawans and what they were doing now that they were in the hands of the reassignment council.

In preparation for her future trials Matsu brought Lamia to her central chamber on the Harrowing and talked with her. She wanted to make certain her padawan was ready for what laid ahead and prepared her with all the knowledge she could muster and teach. It was a long training session full of energy and displays of skill then they would talk about everything. Matsu was impressed with how far Lamia had come but she knew more had to be done. Not from her padawans actions but just in general and with the order itself. She had learned a great many things from the jedi archives about the formation of the jedi and the Sith Purebloods had helped form it even stayed on Tython. That this was ignored and the jedi didn't care anymore seemed just more fuel for why the new council was as badly run as the old.

No one cared about the facts they cared about stroking their egos and their seats of power. It was sickening that she served them when all she wanted to do was serve the lightside of the force without their involvement the people could be helped a lot more and with the coming war it was required that all jedi protect the people. Instead they were just going to sit on their hill top and send countless jedi to their deaths as well as alliance soldiers. The sith wouldn't think twice about it she imagined the Emperor would be there if not leading his people then directing them but he would be there.

He had to show his power and what better way then to stand on a battle field as you and your men kill countless jedi. As she finished training with Lamia, Matsu meditated and awaited the answer, it came and Lamia was not allowed to be a jedi knight she wasn't even considered. Her species was the reason, not her actions or standing. The grandmaster wouldn't even offer a way this to MAtsu showed more arrogance and an attitude towards her as Matsu annoyed with the jedi council contemplated sending in her re-submission for master.
Aboard the Harrowing Matsu met with Tessa, the girl was skillful for one so young and it was time to see how much she had improved being the last teacher of the Battlemaster before he left the order. She was as talented as ever and Matsu for the first time tried to use a saberstaff to better understand how to fight with one. Her spar with Tessa was a joke she was clearly outclassed in terms of the girls even minor skill.

So they tried to teach each other Matsu with the force and Tessa with the staff, it worked and for a few hours they continued to train and spar talking a little until it was time to eat and for Tessa to go to bed. She was still a growing girl so she had to sleep more and eat plenty. After Tessa went to bed Matsu continued to work on the saber staff techniques she had seen Tessa preforming and she wanted to if not master how to use it then to get better so she wasn't such an easy opponent for Tessa. As the night went on Matsu got better with the saberstaff but was nowhere near the level of her padawan.
The time had come, Matsu with the help of Mitya had been allowed to take the trials for being a master. It wasn't much the same as her knight trials but she was different less aggressive and more calm in the face of the dangers. They both after three days in different area's of the temple passed the trials and Matsu was so happy.

The title of jedi master had been bestowed upon her and as she left her padawans to train for a month went into the unknown regions on an inner journey. She found what had been calling to her on Emberlene and after some talking met with Ren Po Ike the wife of her master Dokai. She was a lovely woman who taught Matsu all about her family and what Katagiri had really been, a trained Imperial knight yes but also a member of a family of strong women.

They were Mystril Shadow Guards a group of highly trained mercenaries and fighters that have lived in partial secret throughout the eons and it was a family tradition. Matsu submitted herself to the clans leader Rukia the current head of the order and after showing she was a daughter of Katagiri she was allowed some of the training and secrets of the family. Matsu remained with her family and met her many cousins all of whom were like her and Yansigasawa the son of Ren Po and husband of Rukia. She was a nice man and knew he had been born with love but tradition dictated he could not be in the clan in the normal sense. He was on Nar Shadda most of the time and she could come and see him whenever.

Matsu was there for months preparing with Chora she did what was needed. Her time in the jedi meant little if something happened and as a newly risen jedi master she had the time to do this. Her great grandmother Ren Po showed her how the people of Emberlene could create designer babies and with a grin Matsu also brought forth the power of Sith Alchemy she had learned and used from Lamia. As the steps were taken and time used to prepare, she only contacted the jedi once to tell Chora where she was and even then avoided the others. No one could know about this they might think it an abomination. Chora arrived and Matsu explained the plan at first the other woman was questioning it then she accepted and agreed forming their bond even more. It would take time and Chora would be free to return to the jedi while Matsu remained behind to do this. The treatments began and as Matsu thought more and more about it she was hopeful for the future.

Quote: Step 1: Three weeks prior Matsu and Chora begin taking fertility medication that stimulates production and maturation of eggs. This fertility medication needs to be taken just before the commencement of the menstrual cycle.

Step 2: Matsu's and Chora's ovulation cycle is determined, using body basal temperature and ultrasound and, the hormone levels are closely monitored.

Step 3: At time of next ovulation cycle Matsu and chora's eggs are harvested.

Step 4: Sperm donor is found and sample obtained

Step 5: Sperm sample is washed and concentrated. This needs to be done so that the mucus and non-motile sperms are removed which will increase the possibility of fertilization.

Step 6: Sith Alchemy is used to combine Matsu and Chora's eggs into a single set of eggs carrying the traits of both women.

Step 7: The embryo is grown in the laboratory for two - three days until the cells have divided and the embryo consists of around eight cells.

Step 8: A trained embryologist removes one or two of the cells (blastomeres) from the embryo

Step 9: The cells are tested to see if the embryo from which they were removed contains the genetic make up from both women.

Step 10: Embryos are screened and altered using methods to determine sex, hair color, eye color, skin tone.

Step 11: Embryos that are properly combined are transferred to the womb to allow them to develop.

Step 12: About two weeks after the embryo transfer, Matsu is given a pregnancy test.

Step 13: Upon successful pregnancy Matsu enters a hibernation trace and focuses the force to progress the pregnancy. She is hooked up to IV's and machines while the baby is monitored.

Step 14: Ultrasounds are taken to check fetus state regularly.

Step 15: Matsu gives birth at 38 weeks to two baby girls.

The time finally came and with the accelerated pregnancy the babies were viable after thirty eight weeks more then enough time for normal labor. She pushed and screamed but they came two children as cute as a button and healthy. Matsu gave birth to them and Chora held her hand through it all, with their children born things had changed for the better it seemed and there was a laugh from the jedi master. She knew the twins would need to be secreted away and taught the jedi were many things but she did not see them being the protectors they are supposed to be. The grandmaster seemed to stroke his ego more and more the council she had helped replace became more and more the old one with new faces.

It saddened Matsu and made her glad she had found the one light source in all the darkness, Chora was with her now and slowly Matsu fell asleep holding the babies in her arms. The clinic bed was compact making it easier for her to hold them and they would be dropped. Aging was partially accelerated so the children could become kids able to receive training quickly but they wouldn't age into teenagers for years. Matsu left them with their family to be trained when they looked around three, she had bonded with them and had both of their faces in her heart and on her mind. Matsu was still going to stay on Emberlene that had not changed she had to train harder to work off the signs off pregnancy before she could return to the jedi as a master.

LIES AND SECRETS:

With the birth of her daughters many things changed. THe jedi master worked using her time to adjust. She stopped being a jedi shadow... taking research and roles as an investigator on the planet of Coruscant. She worked in the undercity itself and secured contacts, friends and information for the jedi order. With her work there the jedi master began to explore different works within the force to allow herself to focus and see through the many levels and layers of the planet. It was a massive undertaking but she slowly started to better understand the people there. Her work in the undercity of coruscant brought her into contact additionally with different jedi who had left the temple. Bringing information from the holocrons including the sacred jedi texts that had been recovered and lost several times. Matsu spent her time reviewing them with the holocrons and expanding her knowledge fo the force along with the original jedi order.

Her work took her from the jedi temple to the surface of the planet itself where she found the grotesque statues... ancient and from a time that few could see. The few places they had been seen were on some of the most ancient worlds with mysteries. Abeloth's world really was a source of information as the jedi master went there. Searching the temple and allowing Chora to watch the children in the ship from time to time but using the Nanny droids so that the two of them would be able to explore. They found the source of it and some of the information. THe twin pools of power and knowledge were te mpting to use and to learn the secrets of the force but really brought her attention was the gate. A space time warping gate that only the force users themselves would be able to open. The world it took her to was a place the jedi master could gather and gain She was touched by something there... not the shadows she could hear but something warm and full of life.

The jedi masters mind became scattered, flowing all around and she could see the cosmic force itself. The whole of time and space and life was there as she saw more then she expected altering her perspective. The primordial force nexus she had gone into allowed her to see the whole of time and what came before. Celestials, spirits, ancient beings that lurked int he darkness betwen the galaxies and more. She understood parts of the force as she came back being taken to Tython by Chora and in a coma could feel her mind drifting through the force until she managed to get pulled back and understood much more. Keeping it a secret from many of the other jedi and not telling Chora who after she had been put there was sent on a mission into Sith space without question. THeir marriage, children and well lives were not general knowledge so she had went rather then trying to explain the problem with it.

THE NEW ORDER:

The jedi order was changing, under the direction of masters like Ben Watts it became something different. She was uncertain about it and there were problems. Matsu chased after Chora finding her in the realm beyond shadows. She had been captured and held out against the darksiders but something had happened.... to punish and break her they had tried to drown her in the font of power. The actions of the sith killed her.... somewhat in truth she was transformed finding herself coming back as an avatar of the darkside of the force. The jedi master finding this out and her original body where she saw what became of it. Saying her goodbyes she wasn't able to save her but she could stop what had been made from the fear and anger, the regret and shame that she was going to be dying here away from all she cared about.

That regret and anger became a dark avatar and to counter it and understand what made her so powerful and intense the jedi master went to the pool of knowledge to try and understand it. Seeing visions of the throne of balance was one thing but she noticed something under the water as it gleamed. The jedi master jumped into the pool and swam down deep into the waters. Her lungs burning from the air she held within them and she could feel more of it... she could feel the force and connect to it. She could feel the force as it connected to and touched all living things within the galaxy itself. She came to the bottom and followed the feeling she had in the force and discovered a crystal. Silver and gleaming as the jedi master came up out of the waters feeling herself invigorated with the force.

Her thoughts though were different, the area had changed and shifted as she was in the middle of the pool and she could see something on the far shore away from where she came. THe jedi master swam over to it and the massive white throne on display. WHite marble as she walked around it wa sthe only thing she could call it but the stone and metal was almost interchangable and the throne looked and felt balanced. Ethereal to her when she used it and slowly worked to get herself apart from everything. She understood what was happening with the crystal in her hand when she sat on the throne for a moment. Her force visions coming when she saw a great deal more for herself... her future and she knew where she needed to go as the jedi master used the force and her new understanding to open a rift.

Twin Daughters:
Orihime and Reiko Ike are born from medical and force based tinkering. The daughters of jedi master Matsu and jedi knight Chora with the male donor having been from zeltros and owing a favor to the pair. They grow slightly faster then normal but are otherwise healthy. Their cross breeding has heightened their connection to the force and made it innate while also providing them with the pheromones common in their mother.

Loriath: Adopted on a battlefield, the jedi master found the little half zeltron orphaned and alone taking her in and caring for her eventually adopting her as a daughter and giving her what she wanted a family.

Willow: A biological daughter to Matsu that she had between most of her children. Willow is different then most with a free spirit sure but she was also one of the more likely to rebel and run off on her own.

Twin Daughters II: A second pair of twins born to Hanna and Matsu from force techniques and considered a miracle given that the jedi master was uncertain if she was going to be able to do the ritual and techniques again without a lab. The force abilities took and Hanna gave birth to two beautiful girls named Jade and Momoya Ike. Usually staying with the jedi outpost in the Hapes consortium that was made but barely acknowledged.

Allie: Hanna's child from her first marriage but adopted by Matsu. A beautiful little girl who loves both of her mothers and has taken to living with them and her older sisters.

ABILITIES: Matsu has trained heavily in a wise field of forms and techniques some well known and some obscure.
