I'd just returned from a trip off Voss and was...darker. I'd killed at least three people, completely destroyed another's leg in order for nothing more than information. My fighting style was normally elegant, clean. But the way I'd handled combat on Coruscant was anything but that way, I'd been more Mando'a than anything. Heading to the training arenas I set the combat standards higher than was recommended the enemies spawning would be driven by the intent to kill me and I'd have to kill them first.
Garbed for one thing, battle I had every bladed weapon I owned on myself. "Initiate training sequence, keep safety protocols at bare minimum. Goal survive, deadly force authorized against me." Uncoiling one of my razor whips and flicking it out to the side I called my aqua saber to my right hand with The Force while opening myself to it's currents. Igniting my saber with a snap-hiss. I could feel it thrumming in my hand.
Then the enemies appeared, a variety of species with a variety of weapons. Going into a short run I flicked my razor whip around the Rodian's ankle and jerked shredding his ankle before spinning back to my feet and removing his hands with my saber. A Zabrak came running towards me with a vibroblade just as I flicked my wrist again wrapping my razor whip around his waist and holding him there. A Twi'lek ran at me and dealing a glancing blow with my saber to his leg he fell just as I reached out with The Force and still holding the Zabrak pushed him backwards mightily with The Force. As my whip was still around his waist it completely bisected the training droid.
A Faleen grabbed me from behind and tossing my saber to the ground I threw him over my shoulder re-activating my saber with The Force. Impaling the Faleen, Pushing him off my saber with The Force I split that training droid vertically down the middle before calling my saber back to my hand. The way I was fighting now was a brutal mix of Echani and Mando'a training as well as my Force abilities so far. Elegant yet brutal and deadly. I hoped a master wouldn't walk in and see this display, I also hoped Aria wouldn't either.
Aria...she'd sparred with me and she knew some of what I was capable of but this, this might shock her quite a bit. This unrestrained way of fighting Arja had described as a beautifully brutal and elegant dance. The best of the Echani, Mandalorian, and Jedi combined. As the Rodian lay there I reached out with The Force and whipped my left to the right snapping his neck. The training droid became motionless.
Opening a pouch on my left hip I levitated a small cloud of metal bolts in front of myself and using The Force accelerated them in a spin to slug-thrower speed. The moment the next wave of five enemies spawned I pushed the bolts out with The Force essentially riddling the new enemies with slugs killing them before they'd had time to even draw or activate their weapons.
Then there was a sharp pain in my shoulder and I sensed the enemy behind me. Inverting my saber I stabbed back through a Zabrak's stomach before spinning away and taking off his legs and arms the same way Obi-Wan had once done to Anakin. As he lay there I coldly flicked my wrist decapitating him. The training droid lay there headless. Deactivating my saber and flicking my whip back into a coil before clipping it to my belt.
Two more simulated enemies spawned and using The Force I flicked out both sets of blades on my wrist gauntlets stabbing through their throats in a crossed X motion then I jerked my wrists to either side slicing their throats. As the training droids fell I said,"End training module, copy combat log to my personal data-pad."
Sinking to a seated lotus position amidst the utter chaos I'd inflicted on the training droids I realized that Arja had trained me incredibly well. I half thought I'd have to repair these droids until they started pulling themselves back together and coming to stand at a ready position. As I sat there I half-closed my eyes and thought if anyone threatened Aria this would be child's play compared to what I'd do to them. Dark as it may be I'd viciously protect her and was completely ok with that.
I sat there and waited to see if anyone would join me for some combat training...
