Tython Terror

Iella had moved back into her ship, one of the ships she had received as reward for duty, The Eye of the Beyonder a Defender class corvette. Immediately she went to the bridge and issued commands to take the ship to orbit ready to jump to hyperspace. Their destination is to be Tython and onto a new mission for her and her Padawan Nico.

There would be plenty of time of training while in flight and more when they arrive. Iella took the captains seat on the bridge and watched as the small crew busy now with procedures for the flight. Iella had assigned a room in the sleeping quarters for Nico, a place to call her own when she needs to contemplate or have personal time away from her Master.

The blue tunnel of light appeared in the bridge window as the ship jumped, it would take five days to get back to Tython.

Nico was relaxing well as much as she could. When she got back to the room she changed quickly using towels and some mind tricks to get into the fresher to take a shower. Most ships didn't have private ones it was just a group now she enjoyed the full moment for a bit letting the waters hit her and cascade off her back, let it go through her hair while all the tension was releasing from her body. This was a good way to relax, more then that it was a good way while she breathed in and out. For a moment there she hadn't been sure if she would be able to assemble the blades but it had come and it was something quite fun. Now all that mattered was training with her master and seeing what else she had in mind.

Satisfied that they are safely underway, Iella gave command of the Bridge to her new First Officer, Commander Knightly, a Corellian of course, she only really trusted Corellians when it comes to flying and commanding a Corellian ship. A touch of bias? oh yes very much so. "Commander I will return to my quarters, call me if there is a problem, the Bridge is yours". she said leaving the room.

Iella took this time out to relax and refresh, she walked into her personal quarters and undressed, placing her robes and undergarments in a basket for laundering .. and headed for the shower. It was good to get the dust of the day off her body and out of her hair and since Syn was not around, she could indulge in applying some scented oils to her body, to the normal nose this would not be a problem.

Once she had dressed, she decided to go to the galley and find some food, she had not as yet found crew to man the galley so she would have to prepare food herself. Hmmm, not the best idea but still she had to eat, she just hoped no explosions this time. Once she entered the galley, she pressed the comlink to Nico's room.

"You hungry? .. come to the galley and I will cook for you", she said.

Nico remained in the shower but she heard the message from her master and placed her hands on the wall for a moment just letting the water pelt her face. The lukewarm water now keeping her from resting as needed with a smile and a hand sliding to the comb. A shower one she she could straighten out the none braided sections of her hair and keep them straight. Her padawan braid off to the side and slightly longer to match her hair with a laugh. Then she was out of the shower and standing with a towel around her waist while she walked around the room. Al she needed to cover up was for a moment until she had fresh clothing and stretched heading to the galley to meet her master with a loose fitted shirt on. Nico sat down and had a smile on her face. "Everythign fine master?"

"No it is not fine, I have no idea what to do with this", she said holding up a vegetable of some description. She turned it around in her hand "Well ... it looks eatable", she said with a smile. She grabbed a pot and looked at it, pondering it application. Iella swung it about a little like she would a weapon, then she had a thought. Eyeing one of the other pots she grab it and threw it at Nico. "Think quick!", she said, the she moved into the middle of the galley and took Jedi Ready Stance. "Your move", she said in a mock menacing voice. It was time for some fun, and beside Iella had no idea what to do with the vegetable, maybe Nico did .. that would be helpful or they would starve.

Nico looked at her master and then moved quickly as her hands came up to grab the pot. A smirk and raised eyebrow coming for a moment before she backed up a little and held it in a stance. Her eyes looking at her master with humor before she moved switching hands so the pot was in her left while she spoke. "An interesting choice how to eat, if we cook it correctly could be a good meal though some veggies raw are just as well. So more saber work then my master?"

"I saw what you did there", she smirked. Yes her Master was in a silly mood. She needed it to blow off some steam. She lunged at Nico with the pot and awaited a counter attack.

"Let the battle of the clungers begin!". She yelled. It was at this moment Iella noticed Nico dress or lack of it. She would have to be careful or more could be revealed then she would like. Well... at least the girl is relaxed and comfortable. They would get to the cooking soon enough, to soon for Iella's liking.

Nico laughed to that and gave a nod while she held the pot, then moved with her master assuming a makashi stance. Her one arm going behind her back over the waist and she dashed forward a little turning to the side. Then she struck, before going back then forward again with a laugh. They could cook later after all but something like this could be just as healthy for a person. "Yes let the battle begin."

'Oh stylish", she grinned and jumped back just enough to avoid the pot. "But lets see if your savoir faire is any match for my swashbuckling prowess", she joked as one arm raised up over her head the other holding the 'sword' at a slight angle. She attacked, with a flourish of strikes, quick from left to right, she had to get close of course, as the handle on the pots not allowing for distance.

"I can see the whites of your eyes, I see fear", she said in a mock voice.

Nico moved and had humor and a smile on her face. A laugh at that while she backed away before saying in a slightly mocking voice. "Ah but you see I am not really left handed." Nico switched hands and brought it up to defend against the slashes while she bounced a little around. Her feet moving around the room. "Bring it on master."

The pots clanged as she struck. The jarring sending ripples of weird sensations up her arm. But it would do the same for Nico too. Now prepared for that, Iella moved forward as the bouncing bunny moved about. She was not going to go in swinging like a mad woman, but instead went for the parry .. her foot lunged forward and her arm extended with her arm still raised over her head. She aimed for the gut pushing it forward, at close range as the pots are not the length of sabers, if Nico decided to smack her over the head, and Iella's pot reached it's mark they both would be decidedly injured.

She smiled at the thought of it. How would she explain that one to the Council.

Nico didn't go for the head turning her body to match and feeling the clanging sensation. Her pot knocking against her masters again to send the waves down her arm, her form hopping back while moving in a makashi stance to defend and parry. Going forward with zeal and excitement to try and hit her masters elbow with the pot and disarm her. The padawan breathed in and out while focusing and letting her body steel a little with the force and effort of all their work.

Iella turned on a pivot to block the pot from hitting her elbow, "Hey that will bloody hurt if that hits", she yelled in jest and then hissed as the jarring shot up her arm. "Who's idea was this?, this is painful. I should have opted for the bread sticks".


With that, Iella raised her arm and using the force summon the bread sticks .. one she sent to Nico in a hurry ... she had better be quick or she would be eating it. The other to herself. Iella discarded the offensive pots. Holding the long bread stick in a one handed grip she gave her Padawan a salute and took up ready stance.

Nico looked at her master when she took the pot to her arm and then moved back. Letting the pot go to the side while she spoke about the pots and got a laugh from Nico. The bread stick going into her hand while she hoped back and held the blade with a raised eyebrow. The stick coming to be in front of her for a moment before she lunged bringing one hand up behind her head. "Well then we'll just have to keep at it."

"And we shall", she said with a smile. However .. and obviously the bread sticks will not last long used in an aggressive way, she adding to her silly mood .. Iella went into a slow motion.

As Nico lunged toward her, Iella raised the bread stick to the right high in the air and began her strike to block, her arm moving very slowly in slow-mo before it hit Nico's stick and crumbs flew in the air even on this impact. All her movements are exaggerated .. her foot work .. spin and arms all deliberate. Iella moved to the right .. spinning slowly in a circle to bring her 'blade' to strike at Nico's back.

Nico moved feeling the attack coming for her back while she watched her masters exaggerated footsteps and she felt the strike on her back. Nico yelped a moment jumping forward and turning with her bread stick trying for a blind strike to her masters throat as she was laughing. This was something more fun and enjoyable then just training sabers and it hurt less... unless the bread was stale then it didn't always break right away.

Iella smiled widely, it was good to see her Padawan relaxed and enjoying just being silly. However, the ship is now approaching Tython, she could sense their arrival and the pull of the twin moons called to her. But there is a strong pull, two small little beings waiting to see their mother, and she looked forward to see them and Syn once more.

"We shall have to end our training ... and grab some quick to eat, we are about to arrive", she placed the bread stick down on the bench. "We will need to go to the Temple firstly and gather supplies, once we have returned from the investigations into the Rift, I will take some personal time and you .. my Padawan are free to enjoy Tython, there is plenty here to see and do".

"Understood master." Nico had a smile on her face though at it and the fun they were having but lessons were what mattered and they came first in all the things. The two of them would have another duel with utensils as it were she was certain and investigating the rift didn't sound so bad on her end. She could do plenty of things there while they looked then enjoying the planet for herself was something she was fretting about but would be able to find something she was certain about it to enjoy. "Then lets get our stuff ready and prepared."

She did not have much to gather for this trip, all would be waiting for them in the Temple. Iella had already made the preparations and asked for packs to be ready for them when they landed. All Nico and herself had to do was bring what weapons they wished for the trip and a change of clothes.

The ship landed on the pad with smooth grace and lowered the ramp. Iella immediately left the ship and entered the Temple, she knew Nico would find her, through the force and soon would join her there. As she walked through the corridors to the Temple, she open out through the force to see if the person she seeks is present this day. Master Rasu Gan's force signature touched her's and she smiled. She is here and Iella was pleased, she wanted to see her and congratulate her in person on her appointment of Jedi Master. Iella does not normally do this, however she had know Rasu from when she was Padawan, even taking her to Illum to construct her first lightsaber. Rasu had proven to be a great asset the Jedi and one that commanded respect from everyone.

Turning a corner, Iella located the Master in her office, no doubt pouring over some files of students and their progress in the ways of the force. She entered Master Gan's office with a smile. "Master Gan, it is good to see you again. I will not take up to much of your time as you are busy, but I wanted to see you and say congratulations". Iella moved around her desk and offered her hand.

@[member="Rasu Gan"]

(( just a quick hello to you .. Don't worry about reading this entire thread, it is silly one anyway. We are going down into the rift, if you do care to join us you would be welcome too. But it is just me wanted to see you in person for this ))

 

[Rasu Gan]

(Thank you kindly madam. I'll pass though, got enough on my plate with Padawans and threads as it is, but definitely next time!)

It had seemed there was no end to the work that continued to pile up on the Shi'ido's desk. Rasu hadn't seen this many profiles and activity reports since the opening month of the Academy, where she had been forced to go the first two nights without sleep to get through the onslaught of flimsi and data. It looked like the same would have to be done again, if the Headmistress didn't start breaking a dent into the seemingly endless pile. Reaching out for her datapad, she placed it beside the top most profile, deciding it better to just get started instead of pondering over how to go about starting. Bringing up the necessary information, she began to copy the data written on the flimsi to her datapad where she would send it to the Academy data base to be stored.

With the first copy completed, Rasu moved onto the next one and so forth, her mind focused on the task at hand as she watched the pile decrease in size. She was in the zone now, her fingers flying across from the flimsi to the datapad, typing away as text flew onto the small screen. However a knock on the door drew her attention away from the desk, interrupting the rhythm that had been created. Rising from her chair, she smiled in surprise and delight to see Master Iella E`ron enter her office. Taking her extended arm within her own, Rasu clasped tightly onto the Jedi who had been almost as close to her as her own Master. She had always looked up to the human Master, ignoring the huge age gap between the pair, and was more than pleased to have her visit.

"Thank you so much Master E`ron. But please stay, I've got plenty of time for you. What brings you to Tython?" she asked, wondering what could have brought the Council member all the way from Coruscant to the deep core.
