Trial by fire

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

that is where a fault is...you never created your saber never earned your saber....the feeling when you earn it, well you shall understand how it feels vallory

By the force they made sabers for the apprentices now? She could only have wanted that when she was young! But then again earning those sabers was a right of passage least to stardust

now then, let's see how you fair...begin!

The droid started for her, star notes that odd style...and gave a little smile...that's what she wanted to see. The daoud through a punch left followed by a forward kick

 

[Vallory]

Vallory nodded, she would need to make her own some time. Hers had been given by her master, pre-made and she had not been taught to use one properly. But hand to hand, when one has lived as long as Vallory had, and lived a dangerous life as she had. Her fists curled out as the droid made for a punch, that she made a grab at the fist. With her flexible bones she was able to pivot past the kick and grabbed it's leg before going for a spin. She may have appeared weak, but her muscles were strong.

She spun the droid to get it on the ground, and held her ground right where she was, holding the same stance.

The droid spun and hit the ground hard, it tried getting up and then pushed back enough as it slowly stood and took a stance. Meanwhile stardust was looking around at what she had gathered finding she had saber parts enough to build several types...and a few Crystal's as well. She turned back watching the fight as the droid started circling her looking for a weakness.

Then it struck going to sweep at her legs, by its programming it should be able to knock her down then pick her up and toss her to the side

 

[Vallory]

Vallory kept her eyes to it, mimicking on the spot as she turned slowly. Then it went to sweep her legs. This she didn't see, but she made it quick to bend as she fell, pushing up to flip back. She could have just done once...but Vallory was a show off and went for at least three back flips. There she stopped, readying with a light smirk and a shrug at the droid. "Come on, this droid's gotta have more than this. I've faced better." Her flexible cartilage let her move more fluidly than most. Vallory could easily avoid so many strikes.

[member="Vallory"]

hehehe indeed indeed

Stardust had to admit she was impressed, she noted that the girls movements exceeded most species and she seemed like a fluid moving. She rubbed her chin and nodded send a command to the droid, now rather then striking and moving back it started a barrage of attacks, kicking, punching, even swinging it's full arm towards her without letting up

 

[Vallory]

Vallory saw the flurry of attacks and she knew she could not dodge all. But she tried. She twisted under arms, blocked kicks and even tried getting a few kicks of her own in. But there was a downside to flexible bones as she felt them ache. They broke easily. She struck out a kick which was countered by a strike and she could have sworn, she heard the crack as she fell back.

[member="Vallory"]

STOP.....STOP!!

The droid wasn't responding, it started towards her a few parts sparking. It raised its fist high above it and went down to hit her...however a quick flash of white and the droid stopped, it fell in half as stardust stood above vallory as she pushed the droud away. She turned quickly and crouched

vallory are you hurt?

 

[Vallory]

Vallory looked up in fear as the droid kept going. Then, it was cut in half and she raised an arm to shield herself. Once [member="Stardust Australis Skirae"] got down kneeling by her, and Vallory sat herself up. "It's just a crack in the bone. It'll...it'll heal" she assured. Her Vampirika blood allowed for accelerated healing. But, it still hurt. And at least it wasn't a full on fragment. But what surprised her...was Stardust's sudden caring attitude. She had shifted from a hard, tough master to caring tutor.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Vallory"]

hold on, let me get a bacta shot for it

Stardust wasn't a evil person, even if she had wanted to kill his girl and was ready to push her to the full limit and beyond, she would not let her suffer...walking away she went and got a shot as she sighed and looked her leg over

thisll stop the pain...you...you did good vallory, but we must work on your reaction times...after the leg is better

She pulled the safety cap off and injected it into her leg as if she had done it before many many times

think you can stand?

 

[Vallory]

She watched [member="Stardust Australis Skirae"] as the Twi'lek went away from her. She was thinking over things, like maybe just how great this might get. Before Vallory could object, Star stabbed it into her leg. She gave a hiss, but that was it. "My bones are mostly cartilage. If I try to put pressure on it, it can break more...I'll need some support" she said as she started to stand, holding onto Star as she lifted herself up.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Vallory"]

alright alright just hold onto me

She lifted the girl up, considering she was mostly cartridge it was not difficult for stardust at all not even straining say the least. She sat her down in a chair and sighed

nearly 40 some odd years and I never once encountered your kind...I'm going to have to adjust my training a bit so I dont break any bones

Stardust rubbed her chin...yes she knew this girl had to be older then her yet she almost acted like a teen...maybe something star saw her when she was lost she wanted to fix it...give the girl someone that'll care least a little

 

[Vallory]

Vallory was lifted up by Star and led over to a seat, where she sat down. It was a good thing with her bones that she was light. "Never encountered a Vahla?" she asked, as she rested against the chair. That did surprise her a little bit in hearing that. She didn't actually know Stardust's true age, but Vallory knew now she was definitely older than 40 just from hearing that. She sat back, holding her hands to her injured leg.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Vallory"]

if I did it was in passing

She said and pulled up a chair as she sighed and rubbed her forehead

but I've done a lot in 20 bloody years....its crazy really I won't go into detail on it but ive seen some things that well...I dont wish for many to see at all

 

[Vallory]

She gave a quiet laugh. A long twenty years? "Try a long one-hundred years...I've lived over a hundred and I'm still learning. And when you spend most of your life uprooting gangsters and slavers..." But that was mostly due to her own past relating to such people. Vallory hated them to the bone. She planned to bring all slavers to their knees, sometimes imagining doing so with them in the footsteps of those they enslave.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Vallory"]

ahhhh..there we have something similar besides the force...slavers....I've killed a few in my time...ok a lot. I spent most of my life on narshadda, not by choice mind you just...stuff didn't go right...needless to say while I was there I saw plenty of slavers lot tried to nab me but well...I'm hard to beat heh

She gave a smile nodding her head a bit as she thiyhjt back to the recent times when she fought slavers...she was glad she had gave them a swift brutal death honestly...

are you hungry at all? Or thirsty?

 

[Vallory]

Nar Shadda....the name made her shiver. Her worst moments had been there. A dark place there, a dark time there. "I hate Nar Shadda..." That's all Vallory said, making it clear she never wanted to hear of it again. Nor go there. She had been nabbed a few times. Sometimes she got outnumbered...there was a very big reason that Vallory hated slavers. She still had marks that she dare not show to any, some covered by the tattoos on her face and body.

She put on a light smile. And she bared her fangs. "Yes, I am...it has been a while." She put them back. "But some food and water will do..." Though...it had been a long while since she had had a taste.

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Vallory"]

in sorry I brought it up...seems we both wish to not remember

She said nodding her head, yet she could help but think back, losing her parents right on that planet changed her life forever...however it was because of it she was where she was now....so she couldn't complain much. She looked ti vallory and offered a smirk seeing those fangs as she nodded her head

with time and good behavior I'll make sure your hunger is sated....believe me I have plenty on death row that have committed crimes against my people...and I'll want you in top shape for your training to come

With that she went and got two things of water and a small snack handing her a set before she sat back down

 

[Vallory]

Vallory sat, and took the drink. She was a bit surprised about hearing that, not sure what to think now about that offer. "That...that is some offer for me" she said, and couldn't help a slight grin. She took the drink but left the snack for a bit later. "Your daughter...she is powerful. Is your husband just as powerful? Is that how she is able to...do what she did?"

 

[Stardust Solus Skirae]

[member="Vallory"]

I will not deny someone's natural needs, however I will not just outright give it either

She closed her eyes as she took a sip of some of her water, she had put a lot on her plate then something came to mind....how was she going to explain this to avin? She opened her eyes and drowned as she rubbed her chin...she hoped hed understand

I wish to not talk about my family to much...not yet...but my daughter gets all of her force sensitivity from me....i just didn't think she had that much

 

[Vallory]

Vallory sat in silence, and just nodded. It was understandable, Vallory made nothing note worthy to earn that level of trust from [member="Stardust Australis Skirae"]. She drank some more. "What is the next part of training?" she asked to Stardust, finally choosing to speak. She had lots on mind, and had to think it all through. But for now, she needed to rest her broken leg. She glanced to the droid, looking over it's remnants. "And I sure hope I don't have to pay for that."
