Unbreakable Bonds!

[Triton Kozak]

Triton stood firm as the Jedi facing him spoke, the turbolift coming to a stop. The teen could only smile as the Jedi went on about his master, his love. Triton's smile dropped when the male across him spoke about how he wouldn't let his master be taken or killed...that he'd rather die.

Out of nowhere the Jedi lunged at Triton, the turbolift doors opened and Triton swiftly took a step back as he brought his sabre up to defend the attack. The teen let a small breath of relief escape his mouth before smiling.

"It'd be better for you to stay alive, so you can watch your master grow in darkness...or die for her arrogance." Triton said as he jumped back a few feet, and dropping into the Soresu opening stance, bringing his right hand back, and holding his left hand out. Triton smiled. During his time in the academy Triton hated it, but one useful thing he learned was the basics of Form III. He then felt Ballen-Ist's presence growing a bit stronger.

"C'mon, lets get this over with Jedi."

[Jakkor Kess]

Jakkor rushed at him keeping the offensive with his Djem So. Unlike Ballen-Ist the Tusken had a feeling if he kept up his offensive then the young man before him defenses would crumble. He kept at it pushing him deeper into the block,and fought with such fury,and raw power it would be almost worthy of a sith. He shouts at him the venom clear in his voice.

"I won't let that happen to my master,my love! I won't do you hear me sith! You won't get the privillge to take me alive! I have dealt with far more powerful than you,and you will be dead at my feet,and it will all be for her,because I won't let her suffer like I did. She has suffered to much as it is,and is the only good thing to happen to me,and I won't let you karking sith take her from me!"

He kept fighting as if he were an animal protecting,and fighting for one's mate. He used his feelings for his master to fuel his power,and to slowly weaken his defenses making swift attempts to go for his limbs,or even his head.

[Triton Kozak]

The Tusken's attacks began to become annoying to Triton. The Jedi pushed closer and closer into Triton's defense. The teen grunted as he kept his defense up.

He couldn't help but smirk as the spoke with pure anger, if he wasn't preoccupied with keeping his defense up, he'd be rolling on the ground laughing, laughing at the fact that he has such ties to his master, a foolish mistake on his part. Hearing the remark about how Triton would be dead at the Tusken's feet only made his smirk grow.

Triton was about to comment on what the Jedi said only to be interrupted by the Jedi's sabre speeding towards Triton's head. The teen barely parayed the attack before taking a deep breath. Triton composed himself before attempting to attack the Tusken's left leg.

"I won't let you die...no,no you need to suffer." He said with a small chuckle.

[Jakkor Kess]

Jakkor kept his offense up,and saw after what he just said the Sith was smirking. Was he trying to mock Kess,or did he find this absolutlely amusing,either way the Tusken would be very pissed off at such a reaction that he even showed it by growling at the young man before him.

Jakkor then said to the young man smirking still angry even as the sith parried his blow to his head,but he said in a very calm tone. "What could you do to make me suffer huh. What would you do that I haven't already been through. Would you have me kneel,and watch as you perhaps kill her before my eyes,or worse for that matter! Well you might even think this is amusing for you on how a padawan has developed such an attachment to his Master well you won't be laughing any longer when your head is seperated from your body!"

When he finished he had barely enough time to notice the sith was going for his left leg,and in that moment force pulled his second lightsaber to his free hand,and managing to activate the green blade just in enough time to parry the coming strike. He then began a mix of his personal fighting style consisting of a mix of Djem So,and Jar'Kai which would make a deadly combination for any foe. He then restarted his offensive bashing at his enemy's crimson blade so hard he would slowly loose his grip on it,and would concentrate on attempting to disarm him going for his weapon arm.

As they moved closer,and closer he sensed that his master was close,and he felt that she was still alive. This brought relief to the tusken,and in the middle of combat he attempted to speak to her through their bond in the force. "Master...Viktoria. if you can hear me. Try to get out of here find my ship,and go. You must save yourself,I'll try to hold the sith off as best I can,but you must live. Go find another Padawan if you must. I'll try,and find you,and if I don't well then I guess the force has decided otherwise.

[Triton Kozak]

The teen's smile dropped as the Tusken drew his second sabre and blocked the incoming hit. Then the Tusken attacked with a fire that he wasn't ready for. The Tusken began to barrage his defense. Triton grunted as he started to speak.

"Oh man, you like giving me ideas..." Triton said. Just as the words left his mouth an unexpected hit caused Triton to lose grip of his sabre. The teen grunted as he watched it fly across the hall and shut off.

"Hell." He said as he jumped back a few feet to think of his next move. Then the teen smiled. "You got me Jedi." He said as he put his hands up, his smile still glowing.

The Tusken was aggressive, something that Triton enjoyed. This idea might work.

[Jakkor Kess]

Jakkor pointed his sabers at the young man's throat stepping forward cautiously. He had noticed the smile in his face,and the look in his eye,and the Tusken did not like it one bit,and stepped around him trying to head over to [member="Viktoria Norduin"] cell. He said to the Sith blades still pointed at his throat. "You are beaten. I suggest you get out of here as much as I want to kill you I am not like you so I will spare you! Your not the reason I came here,but if you try to kill me I will change my mind,and end your pathetic life right here. Now if you will excuse me I have a jailbreak to complete."


He deactivated his sabers,and started walking away from him in the direction of her cell. Jakkor had one eye looking over his shoulder steadily watching the young man,and to make sure he wouldn't try anything,and the way he looked at the Tusken didn't put him at ease,still he remained on his guard,and continued to move forward trying not to focus on the next dark precense that was in the cell block. All that he was trying to focus on was the force signature of his master hoping that it would bring him comfort in this horrible place.

Viktoria was unable to sleep, so she decided to meditate. It was no doubt that she would have burn marks and bruises all over from the lightning. Even though it hadn't, it felt as if it had burned her to the bone. In fact it didn't take long after he had stopped electrocuting her, she had felt stinging on her left cheek only to notice that a long scratch from not too long ago that had ended up being pretty deep had reopened, bleeding once more. A few of her other lesser healed scars had also reopened.

As she sat up, there was more pain and her physical strength was still to a minimum. Viktoria gritted her teeth as she felt the pain, but then she just closed her eyes and decided to focus on the force again. That was when she heard her Padawan's voice.. was she hallucinating, or did she actually hear him? Then she remembered their bond before responding.

"I'm not leaving here without you Jakkor. I think you know that. Besides, even though I've got the force by my side, I'm at a great disadvantage..."

she responded through her mind to his. Maybe he would know what she was 'talking' about, but she couldn't assume. Plus what if one of the two troopers saw her.. which they would. She was too weak to run or stand for that matter. And then they would contact [member="Ballen-Ist"] and he would then have to come and move her to a more secure cell that she wouldn't be able to escape and then possibly be killed.. or even worse... she'd be forced to watch her own apprentice die in front of her. So many things could go wrong, especially with her position. If she wasn't so weak, she'd be breaking out, finding her equipment, finding Jakkor, helping him and then blowing this pop stand.

[Ballen-Ist]

Rounding the corner, Ballen-Ist appeared, coming to a halt as he looked upon the rushing [member="Jakkor Kess"]. How... Irritating. How utterly infuriating. He had already known of the Jedi's survival, but seeing him pushed the Pureblood over the edge. Clenching his black gloved hands into tight fists, the Sith Knight would begin to stride towards the Tusken Raider, hardly noticing [member="Triton Kozak"] who was nearby.

"You! How dare you return!" Ballen-Ist would yell, his voice echoing down the corridors thanks to the amplifiers inside the helmet he wore. The dark side began to pour from the Sith, corrupting and harnessing the force around him before lifting both of his arms into the air. His hands stretched out fully, directing his presence as it expanded outwards through the air, invisible and non-existent to those untouched by the force.

His power would manifest into powerful telekinetic streams that started to tear apart at metallic wall panels, ripping pieces of the floor from the starships frame, hurtling the debris down the hall at a rapid pace. There wasn't so much as to completely overwhelm, though Triton was put in potential danger, for there way of telling where the hunks of metal would go once they were avoided.

[Triton Kozak]

The sabre was so close to Triton's neck. He continued to smirk as the Tusken passed him. Triton let out a sigh of relief as he went to pick his lightsaber up. A few moments later he heard a yell, turning around he would notice Ballen-Ist. The teen's smirk grew into a large smile.

The panels began to rip off the walls and floor, even the light panels zapped out. Triton ducked as a panel flew past him. Triton trotted towards Ballen-Ist, with a grin on his face, he passed the Tusken without a care. "Hey B." The teen said. Triton was then hit by a panel and thrown into the wall.

"Ouch." Triton said. He tried to get up but his arms were pinned.
"Umm ya, B, I'll just sit here for a bit."

[Jakkor Kess]

Jakkor stopped when he saw [member="Ballen-Ist"] right behind him. He felt cold as if he was almost shivering,but stood his ground none the less. The rage,and fury was clearly coming off of him,and it couldn't be even more clear when his metallic voice boomed,and echoed such emotions throughout the entire block.

The only thing that was standing between him,and reuniting with his master was Ballen. He then saw the two stormtroopers guarding her cell,and threw his lightsaber at them. The lightsaber activated in mid throw creating a spinning arc it decapitated the troopers,and fell within seconds as the saber came back to it's weldiers hand. Knowing their wasn't much time he shout's to the cell hoping she could hear him behind the door.
"Viktoria. If you can hear me,get out the guards are dead,and I'll try my best to hold the Sith off. I beg of you leave me please! Use the force to give you strength,and run please!"

When he turned around he had barely enough time to the metal that was coming for him. He swiftly manages to cut most up with his two blades,but it was not all of them,and managed to pierce both his shoulders especially his blaster wound which let out a sharp cry of pain from Jakkor. His mask was torn to pieces,and exposed his face which now bore a scowl. He looked into the direction of the Sith ignoring the pain,and the blood dripping on the ground,and said. "Is that all you got!"

[Zara Lianna]

Viktoria's body painfully jolted from her focusing on the force upon hearing Ballen's voice. She heard metal tearing and covered her ears due to how loud it was. Next thing she knew through the force field, she saw Jakkor's green blade run right through the troopers' necks. Well, she had gotten her one wish with the trooper who was throwing insults at her earlier. She smirked at seeing this and got up the best she could, using the wall for support before she then heard Jakkor's voice. It made her stop dead in her tracks.

His voice was the one she had been waiting for. And this time, it wasn't in her head. He was actually there and now he was in trouble. He told her to escape and leave him, but he should have known her well enough by now to know she wasn't one to abandon friends.. or Padawans. She heard his scream in pain and knew she had to help him. She knew what it was like right now to be in pain and there was no way in hell she was leaving without him.

Once she heard his scream, she took in the energy around her and used it to make the force field vanish before she then ran to where they were hiding her weapons and she broke in finding out the code before she opened the locker re-equipping herself, with her lightsabers at the ready. She then came running full force towards the trio, right past [member="Triton Kozak"] and right toward [member="Ballen-Ist"] and [member="Jakkor Kess"]. She ignited her blades as she made her way to Ballen, using the force to keep her standing and strong. Plus having a touch of anger kept her moving pretty quickly.

 

[Ballen-Ist]

The rage that boiled within Ballen-Ist had not been this great in a very long time. The shrapnel and debris of the hallway had successfully found its target, pelting [member="Jakkor Kess"] and riddling his body with cuts and bruises. Even so, the Tusken warrior had managed to slice up his fair share, avoiding the majority of damage that would have been inflicted upon him. This did not satisfy the Sith Knight, even while he stared down the bloodied Jedi.

Unfortunately, Triton Kozak had indeed been caught in the crossfire, being pinned to the wall by a large hunk of metal. The boy had great potential, but he was far from serious. "Idiot," the Pureblood breathed to himself as he passed by Triton, continuing to advance on Jakkor. Suddenly, [member="Viktoria Norduin"] made an appearance, her saber blades igniting as she skidded to a halt nearby her Padawan. In her wake had been a squadron of soldiers, sent to sweep the area after the alarm in the armory had been tripped.

They too came to a halt as they rounded the corner, examining the saber wielding individuals in brief awe. Force user battles were a sight to be seen, and the men certainly didn't want to get in between it, yet. First, they went to the aid of [member="Triton Kozak"], moving the debris in which held him down in hopes of helping him up. Jakkor and Viktoria were at the opposite end of the wide corridor, having not made their move. "How utterly pathtic," the Sith hissed, feeling the anger and pain coursing through the Jedi duo. "You are both Jedi failures, you will never defeat me as you are now." Ballen-Ist accused, taking a few steps closer before pacing back and forth.

 

[Triton Kozak]

Triton watched as the Tusken was hit with shrapnel from the debris that were flying around. The teen looked over at [member="Ballen-Ist"] who began to walk past him, the Sith Knight was clearly irritated. Triton heard Ballen-Ist say something under his breath, Triton didn't hear what it was though. The teen watched [member="Viktoria Norduin"] bolt right past him straight to Ballen-Ist.

Before Triton could say anything, Viktoria was already near [member="Jakkor Kess"]. Rounding a corner were a group of troopers who stopped as they saw the Jedi before quickly moving to Triton. They began to clear the debris, the slab of metal which held Triton pinned was pulled off.

"Ouch, that hurts." He whined as the troops helped him up. He then began to strech a bit before turning to Ballen-Ist.

"All jokes aside B. Stop playing with them." Triton said seriously as he cracked his neck.

 

[Jakkor Kess]

Jakkor was in a lot of pain from the shrapnal all around his body that he even struggled at times to keep his sabers up,and acted as if he was ready to die,and make peace with the force. He then saw his master bolt towards him,and [member="Ballen-Ist"] he could feel the rage come off of her,and noticed how she was using the force to get past her wounds.

He says to her almost pleadingly. "Master... I told you to get out of here,and leave me if their is still time. Get out I'm ready to die anyways!"

He then staggers over to her,and stands right next to her raising his sabers once more. When he heard how the Sith were mocking them he remarks while standing at [member="Viktoria Norduin"]side "If we are such pathetic failures could a failure like me have courage,and loyalty to save one's master from this dreadful place."

He used the searing pain all throughout his body,and in a sith like way used that pain to fuel his strength,and keep himself standing while going into a Jar'Kai pose,and waiting for the next move.

[member="Triton Kozak"]

 

[Zara Lianna]

Standing beside [member="Jakkor Kess"] and seeing the troopers coming towards them due to her setting off an alarm for her stuff, lit a spark she hadn't found in a long time. She remembered being in her Padawan's perspective, saving her master from a Sith. Even though her master was a good teacher, when she pleaded him to leave like Jakkor was, her master actually had. Viktoria was in no way going to do the same thing to her Padawan. She couldn't leave him like that.

"Damn it Jakkor! I'm not leaving and no matter what you do, I still won't leave... I'm not my master."

she said that last part under her breath. She had said it mostly to the point only he would hear what she said, but the last part, was a little quieter. Viktoria glared at [member="Ballen-Ist"] as he spoke of how pathetic and how much of a failure they were. For how Ballen was acting, Viktoria was on the edge of furious, but showed a calmness. A calmness shown from a Jedi, that would send a chill down your spine.

"We are not failures. Yes, you have to lose to win. But we have lost and we can win.. does that sound like a failure to you? All we could possibly do now, is just show that we're stronger than ever now, than we ever were."

Viktoria said with a bitterness to her voice. Her body was weak, and it showed it, but her attitude didn't. In her eyes, she showed the same fire that had been there all along, now it was just burning and it was being fueled. She then looked over to [member="Triton Kozak"] and gave a smirk at what he said. He wasn't as bad as she thought.. as he knew when to back off and now was that time after Viktoria had gotten into position, bending her knees slightly and holding her sabers in the reverse hold.

"I suggest you take your friend's suggestion."

she responded with the calmness she had flooding through her.

 

[Ballen-Ist]

"I can feel your emotions," Ballen-Ist replied simply, still pacing from side to side as his eyes stayed trained upon [member="Viktoria Norduin"] and [member="Jakkor Kess"]. The woman fed off her anger, while the Tusken utilized his pain to keep himself going. On the surface, it probably wasn't much of a deal for them. Even if they did not want to admit it, they both skittered dangerously close to the dark side, and due to this they could never win. They were fools, letting the Pureblood stall and gather the power necessary to take the duo on at once.

Thanks to his ancient heritage, the Sith Knight had inherited a particularly rare racial attribute of his people. Purebloods inherently wielded the dark side, some capable of feeding directly off the negative emotions of others as well as their own. That was exactly what he had been doing the entire time, manipulating their reactions in order to benefit from them in the end. "I will enjoy crushing you both," the Sith concluded, the pause between his declarations only mere moments in length. He would give them no time to reply, for he had lost interest in their nonsensical speeches.

He would give them no time to collect their thoughts and refocus their efforts, for within seconds the Sith was upon them. An audible burst of force energy was released around Ballen-Ist, his legs bending slightly as he pushed off the ground, leaping almost horizontally through the air. The powerful bound had him arrive right in front of Viktoria and Jakkor, his crimson blade igniting to instantly transition into an assault. One of his more practiced styles, Juyo, was said to be one of the most dangerous forms of lightsaber combat.

The radiant beam of red energy would sweep relentlessly through the air, coming down first in an overhead strike aimed at Viktoria. The momentum behind the blow was staggering, and she would be hard-pressed to challenge it. Feeling the lust for battle and blood welling within him, Ballen-Ist knew he was going to be entertained. [member="Triton Kozak"] still had a lot to learn, perhaps he would learn something by watching the show.

 

[Triton Kozak]

Triton listened as the two Jedi claimed to not be failures, this brought a small smile to Triton's face. The teen then watched as the duo began to get in their fighting stances. Triton looked at [member="Viktoria Norduin"].

"I suggest you just give in...." Triton said as he turned his attention to his leg which he hadn't known was injured. He touched the wound and winced a bit. The teen then listened to Ballen-Ist's words. He talked about crush them both, this made Triton's smile grow.

"Don't say I didn't warn you." Triton said as he moved towards a wall and sat down. Triton watched as Ballen-Ist launched straight towards the Jedi, attacking them brutally. Triton sighed, there were some things people will never understand about Ballen-Ist, under those seemingly reckless attacks and comments is a very calculated person. This is where Triton let out a small chuckle.

"These Jedi don't get it." He said to himself as he looked at his injured right leg.

Triton looked at the group of troops.

"Hey, make sure your blasters are set to stun, this could get out of hand. Be ready to shoot B. If he goes to far, we need the girl alive." Triton said to the troops. He then looked back to the battle that was forming.

One hell of a battle.

[member="Jakkor Kess"]

 

[Jakkor Kess]

Jakkor was on the defensive he was going to reply to [member="Viktoria Norduin"],but [member="Ballen-Ist"] moved so quickly the Tusken had barely enough reaction time to parry the first blow. He then began his defensive with some Soresu defensive blocks he did know while keeping an eye on his master.


He noticed how the stormtroopers were surrounding the duo blocking any chance to escape,and had their weapons set for stun. As much as Jakkor wanted to create a path to escape,his thoughts however were solely focused on his master. The sith attacked her with brute force,and she would be pushed back. Jakkor had enough of it,he might might be stupid,or crazy to have developed such feelings he experianced towards his master,and perhaps is a damned fool,but he would not let his master fall because of his failed attempt.

He moved swiftly behind the Sith,and began a series of attacks using his personal style of Djem So,and Jar'Kai upon him. Making powerful swings,and stabs at his torso,and head hoping to distract him,and ease his master of such a monster that was pushing her back.

[member="Triton Kozak"]

 

[Zara Lianna]

Viktoria looked over at the teenager, [member="Triton Kozak"] who suggested that she should turn. She tread far enough on the Darkside for her taste. There was no way in hell she was going any further.

"I suggest you zip it, young man."

She said firmly before she then noticed as [member="Ballen-Ist"] then jumped towards them. He swung at Viktoria and [member="Jakkor Kess"] both, which she dodged backwards and came up just in time to block the blow he bestowed upon her. She blocked his blow, using both of her sabers to create an X as she pushed back at him, which with as strong as they both were, she was losing her footing and was sliding backwards.

Viktoria was then surprised to see Jakkor going after Ballen. It had been enough to give her a breather, but she wouldn't have much time. Now instead of being the hunter, she was the hunted. Triton was talking to the troopers who were setting their blasters to stun and apparently, Triton wanted her alive. Even though Viktoria had been using the force to hold herself up, she was still exhausted and knew she would fall soon.

If the two wanted to live, they'd have to leave soon.. or else Viktoria would be re-captured and Jakkor would most likely wind up being killed, which would be Viktoria's worst nightmare.

 

[Ballen-Ist]

The soldiers looked back to [member="Triton Kozak"], completely unaware of what the Sith apprentice had planned. Ballen-Ist himself hadn't exactly outlined a desired outcome or goal for the mission to the troops, and from the looks of it things were not going as planned. The pale armored soldiers shared a brief exchange of confused expressions beneath their helmets, before switching their blasters to stun mode. While they were not under his direct command, Triton still had considerable power, and the men dared not to act against him. However, they feared the Sith Knight even more, as they watched him engage [member="Jakkor Kess"] and [member="Viktoria Norduin"] in a fast paced blitz of sweeps and spins.

There was no way they were going to fire and get themselves involved. Yet. The crimson blade of energy collided with the woman's X formation block, bright flashes of light illuminating the hallway with every connection their weapons made. Unfortunately for the Pureblood, their exchange was brief, as the Tusken Padawan emerged from his blindside attempting to land death blows upon the Sith Knight. His passion was brighter than the sunlight itself, causing the cloaked man to peer briefly over his shoulder.

With a practiced grace, Ballen-Ist would lean forward on angle to the side, the green blade of Jakkor's weapon missing his rib cage by a few centimeters. A sweep of his other saber missed his neck too as his upper body went horizontal, his leg pushing off against the ground, his booted foot pivoting to propel himself into a curved mid-air rotation. The acrobatic display carried Ballen-Ist around his enemy, now putting him on their blindside hopefully. If the Tusken were too late to react, he would be hit by the full brunt of a powerful force push, that would surge forth in attempt to slam Jakkor into his own master who he now faced.

The Sith Knight was lost in the battle now, having not experienced such an exciting rush in what seemed like forever. With the light armor upon his body, such demonstrations were sure to wear him down overtime, and so the Sith took note to pace himself. Though, there was always the chance that these two were holding back. Surely, they had some abilities or powers that would pique his interest. The force surrounded the duo, even if he did not view them at particularly powerful.
