Opposites Attract?

[Kurenai Yumi]

The recent invasion of Eshan had taken a lot out of Kurenai, the fighting, pace, her over all involvement had been much more intense then any past operation. Even her past campaigns during the one Sith wars had never been this exhausting, but then again in those days she was just a merc with a large group. No now she was special forces, dropped right into the thick of the fight, no more taking on grunts, her targets in any future conflicts could be big game, people almost as skilled as her. Emphasis on almost, she did come back alive after all, more then she could say for her opponent.

Still it served as an ever constant reminder to never falter on training, those she face in the field may never have the life experience she had, but many did compensate for it via proper and professional training as well as gadgets. So it would come as no surprise to see the rather tall women quietly walking through the halls of the massive Obsidian Knight station. She wore her usual kimono outfit but underneath had her normal training gear on, saber on belt and fighting spear on her back, ready to be tested, but against what?

Her destination in mind being one of the many training rooms dotted throughout the complex, rooms she did not used often but now seemed like quite the ideal place to get in some decent practice. It wasn't as if anyone ever wanted to spar with her either way.

Loud footfall sounded from clear down the hall as the young laughing sith ran from the three guards that he had purposely annoyed to the point they wanted to cause him harm..... You slamos cant catch me! I'm not even using force run you chu...... His words quickly cut off as he ran full force into the woman who had been heading towards the fitness center causing him to crash to the floor and tear his Sector 7 uniform....

In such a place and such a time having your guard up wasn't exactly needed, though what happened next prove to really strain such thinking as Kunreai felt a rather sizable force run into her upon turning a corner. Her world was put into a tumble as she was thrown to the floor by the incoming being, rolling a little before finally coming to a stop, eyes locking onto what she now recognized to be a young man. Her expression was blank, combined with a small amount of surprise and annoyance from being knocked over so suddenly, even if it did seem like an accident. ".... hello there, mind explaining what you are doing"?

Jayce quickly scrambled to his feet and looked down to the woman he'd run over as his hand outstretched to her as to help her up. Though hed not get the chance to as one of the guard who had been chasing him now tackled him from behind forcing him to stumble forward and slam rather hard into the wall.

You just karked up your life pal Came Jayce's highly annoyed tone as he turned to face the guard that now clutched at his own throat as if an invisible rope had tightened around his neck. The guards feet rising from the floor in tune with Prydes left hand as his fist slowly closed, tightening the force choke upon the man's neck.... Now I suggest you apologize to this beautiful woman who you caused me to knock over before I snap your neck like a twig worm

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

Kurenai continued to look on with a rather blank stare as the man who had just tackled her to the ground received a sudden taste of his own accidental medicine from what seemed to be a station guard. Which was a bad mistake, though she had never met the man before she could sense his connection to the force, that guard was in for a bad day.

As he was raised to the sky via your classic force choke Kurenai approached the other man, not really giving much notice to his current actions. "Excuse me would you be able to explain to me why you are in such a situation as to be chased by security"? "Aslo perhaps letting go of that guard and not killing him would be ideal, I'd prefer to understand the context before someone dies in my name or 'beauty' as you put it just a few moments before". It was certainly a new aspect to think about, most people always seemed to afraid or wary of her to make comments on looks and figure.

His expression turned from one of pure malice to something much kinder as he turned his attention to the woman beside him and with a soft smile and a nod he hurled the guard down the hallway with just a flick of his wrist. His attention was now hers. he dared to insult me by saying I was a student here and too young to be a Sith Lord..... So I killed his partner and was planning to have some fun with him

Jayce did look young... Barely out of his teens young but even at just 30 years old Jayce had accomplished things most Sith only read about. Things most Sith dared not even try.

His rich southern tone would emit once more as he finally introduced himself..... My name is Darth Syn..... I'm the new defense against the darkside teacher for the younglings who wish to be obsidian knights.... And who might you be darlin?

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

Well, he seemed like quite the interesting person to literately run into, Kurenai still keeping a cocked eyebrow as the young man threw the guard away like some overused rag doll. "Hmm, well I guess you proved your point quite well with those skills, perhaps though killing them was a bit over the top, not that it was something I'd not expect from a Sith Lords". As for his looks, well she got that sometimes, even for 800 Kurenai didn't look older then 25, quite a few people often questioned her expertise when making combat decision, always frustrating.

She gave a small bow to the younger man as he introduced, "Well it is nice to meet you Darth Syn, my name is Kurenai Yumi, I'm also apart of the Obsidian knights, one of the former dominus before they kicked them all out and elected one of Metu's brothers or something to that role". It was something she was still bitter about, seemed that family and friend connections were more important then actual merit.

He couldnt help but notice how gorgeous she was and hoped she wouldnt notice him staring or sense his thoughts as a big goofy smile crept across his lips. You may be right.. I probably overreacted just a bit...... But they were being rude and even though ive slaughtered countless beings I despise rudeness.... You know what I mean? His last question more of a statement that an actual question.

So where were you headed this morning before our worlds collided? he asked as cybernetic optics scanned over her form and possibly saved a few pictures of her...... For identification purposes obviously.

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

Kurenai quirked an eyebrow as the two stood their for a second, was he staring at her, odd, though from what she had seen the boy was quite the odd person indeed. "Rudness, hmmm I do get that, but most of the time, as people have said, I tend to blow it off with scarcity and pompous remarks and, I quote from someone else, 'tend to roast them'... what ever that means". So she did understand, even if the two had very different ways of dealing with said rudeness.

"Hmm, oh I was just headed to the training room to take on a few droids and flex my arms a little, have to keep in good shape to make sure that 'master' title sticks, even if no one really seems to note it". Not that any of them would be alive in the next few decades, perhaps sh'd slowly rise to the top of the CIS leadership, more so since half of Metu's children are not looking to follow in his foot steps so eagerly. "You are free to join more or just do what ever you want".

Are we talking litterally or figuratively cause I actually have like roasted people.... Like with fire... His deep southern voice held a tone of alnost sadistic glee as he asked her this.... His mind holding a fondness of such memories. Jayce was infact a cannibal at times and would often eat those that he killed... And not always in that order.... Or cooked for that matter..... But she didnt need to know all that yet so he snapped back to reality a split second later with a smile to her as he stepped of towards the training hall.

Sure we can train together if youd like.... I bet youre sexy when you're all sweaty and fighting. he spewed before even realizing that he was blatantly flirting with a woman who could most likely kick his teeth in with little effort..... But Jayce didnt care cause she was gorgeous and he was cocky.

 

[Kurenai Yumi]

"I've not set anyone on fire in a while, though I do know pyrokenisis, but I mean in a figurative sense, you know what I mean"? He was quite the dark character, almost reminded her of a certain daughter that was quite proficient in torture. If it were not for the fact she was used to this sort of thing by now his words and gaze would have been quite unsettling to look at. Perhaps it would be best to keep one another more personal details out of mind for the moment.

"Sexy? I will admit you are not the first to say such, I often find some of the younger knights watching my training regimes, something about that sports bra is to small for her or something". She never really understood it properly, "I'll take that as a compliment for now, though I'd refrain from flirting to much, I am a married women after all".
