Thanks for reading Borme and Ejedir!!! I appreciate your lovely comments!! ANd now for the eeeeevil plot!!
***
"Noo! You will not get away with this, the others will come!" The man screamed from the table. He twisted and squirmed as best he could in the restraints that held his arms in three different places, his stomach in one and his legs in four. To Kifan it seemed as though someone might have an awfully hard time even breathing in such a position, although his father and grandfather assured him they could.
"Silence!" His father ordered. Clapping a muffler over the man's mouth. The man's screams continued, although muffled. Kifan casually hid behind his grandfather's legs as he watched his father pull the lever on the machine.
"No Kifan, you must watch. You have to learn so that you can finish our work some day." His grandfather, Cylek Ambourg said nudging away and placing his hands on Kifan's tensing shoulders.
Ysalamari scuttled about, some clinging to the machine itself. Kifan understood that these creatures were what made the capturing and intechment of Jedi all possible. In his young mind, he found it hard to understand why his father and grandfather would want to kill-well they weren't exactly killing them- Jedi. After all, they too had been Jedi at one point in time. And he also understood that he himself had the potential to become one.
The sound of lightening hissed and snapped around the machine and the Jedi man cried out in anguish. Blue light flickered bright, almost blindingly so. Kifan squinted but obediently watched. Moments later the Jedi's body fell limp onto the table and the electricity ceased to flicker. Kifan's eyes gazed at the Jedi with curiosity. Then a green light on the machine started to blink. His father and grandfather clapped their hands together.
"It worked! Another successful transfer." His father announced.
"Good work son! You have done me proud." Cylek exclaimed clapping his son on the back. The two stood talking about technical things Kifan didn't quite understand yet while Kifan simply gazed on in amazement. He stepped over to the lifeless body of the Jedi. His eyes were still open and his head turned to the side, Kifan jumped, it was as if the man were staring right at him. The pale blue eyes were penetrating, filled with anguish and sheer horror. Kifan covered his own eyes in fear. Then he felt the calm reassuring hand of his father on his shoulder.
"It is wonderful isn't it? Now this man will be able to live forever." His father replied, closing the man's eyes with his fingers.
"Not to mention that with his spirit now under our control, it will insure a great and marvelous future for our family." Cylek added.
"That is true. Once we have enough Jedi we will be able to transfer their spirits into our weapons, and we will be able to take over the universe." Kifan's father agreed. "But Kifan, I'm afraid it will be up to you to finish our legacy. With the rise of the Emperor, Jedi are becoming more and more scarce. But they will rise again, and when they do, you will be here to make sure that our project gets finished."
Kifan nodded. He would be proud to continue the legacy. His father had designed the machine and weapons himself and he would teach Kifan all the secrets. Some day, Kifan would finish what they'd started.
"Yes father." He replied still in awe.

Kifan watched from his perch high in the trees at the growing base that the New Republic had begun to build. After talking with a few of the New Republic officers sent to help build he'd learned of the course of events that had happened in the years he'd been out of touch. The Emperor was dead, along with the Dark Lord Darth Vader. But that wasn't the part that interested him the most. Apparently the man mostly responsible was a Jedi by the name of Luke Skywalker, who had since become a Jedi master. The Jedi were rising again, Kifan could feel it. He'd further learned of a Jedi academy that had been established. Just as his father had foreseen, now Kifan had the means to finish the legacy his father and grandfather had laid before him. It was only a matter of time now.

***
Trinity sat near the front of the spacious audience chamber gazing around dreamily. It was on this very moon that the first victory of the Rebellion had been won. She closed her eyes and could almost hear the shouts of joy and the electricity that must have penetrated the very soul of each of the men and woman and aliens who'd fought. What a day it must have been. She'd studied up on the war for the past few years, the fact that her own uncle had played a key role in the fight against the Empire made her proud. It was in these very chambers that her Uncle Han and Master Skywalker had been presented metals of honor.
"Now what are you doing?" Vanis' voice broke into her thoughts.
Trinity glanced at him startled. "Just thinking."
Vanis stared at her strangely. Then crossed the large floor and sat down next to her. "About what?"
"About the war." Trinity said dreamily. "Haven't you ever wondered what it would have been like to fight in the war for justice and freedom, against incredible odds."
Vanis shrugged his shoulders. "I never much thought about it. Smugglers tend to stay out of that sort of thing."
"Not all smugglers." She said proudly.
"True." Vanis agreed. "But for the most part. So how long have you been in here?"
"I don't know, an hour or so." Trinity replied.
Vanis shook his head. "I will never understand how a person could sit somewhere dreaming about something for large amounts of time."
"Of course not, you have no imagination." Trinity replied bluntly.
"I have imagination." Vanis replied defensively.
Trinity gave him a skeptical glance. "Oh do you?"
"Sure, I just don't waste my time imagining things all day. That doesn't mean I don't have it though." Vanis replied.
Trinity shook her head. "It's not a waste of time. What about meditating, is that a waste of time?"
"Meditating and imagining are not the same." Vanis pointed out.
Trinity nodded. "Perhaps, but I think it's just as important."
"For you maybe."
"Yes for me! What do you want anyway?" Trinity asked a hint of annoyance in her voice.
Vanis gazed around the room. "I don't know, I guess I was just bored, so I thought I'd come see what you were up to. You're quite entertaining to watch you know."
Trinity rolled her eyes. "Glad you noticed." She said wryly. "I'm done with my silly imagining, you want to go practice a few skills?" She replied getting to her feet.
Vanis grinned. "Sounds good to me."

Vanis followed Trinity out side into the warm air of mid day. Her auburn hair glistened in the sun light. And Vanis couldn't help but smile. The girl was certainly difficult to figure out, at least for someone like Vanis. The things her imagination came up with never ceased to amaze him. Though often times humorous, her thoughts and ideas actually did make sense, in a way. She came up with her own ways of training herself and was always so enthusiastic about everything. She was like no one he'd ever known. It had been because of her that he was able to leave the dark side in his past and move on. The fact that she seemed to care about what happened to him, and his happiness even though moments before, he'd been set on killing her and her master. The way they'd both reached out to him had caught him by surprise. He'd never forget the way they'd both helped him. Watching her and how happy she was inspired him to seek the same happiness, he actually enjoyed the times they'd spent together since they'd come to Yavin. Though he was constantly mocking her and questioning her ideas and motions, it wasn't that he thought it was completely ridiculous, he was simply intrigued by it and wanted to understand it further. Of course he'd never actually admit such things to her.
"So what exactly did you have in mind?" Vanis asked.
Trinity grinned at him mischievously. Oh no.. he certainly knew that look.
"You'll see." Was all she said.
Vanis sighed. "Come on Trinity, just tell me. I'm not so sure I like that look."
Trinity smirked. "Well I think you'll like what I have in mind."
He followed her out past the main temple and into the jungle, and they continued to trudge deeper and deeper into the jungle until they came upon a temple he hadn't known was there. He glanced at her and abruptly she halted, staring at the temple with child like curiosity.
She pointed at it grinning. "There."
Vanis stared at it, searching for something that stood out about it, something that would make her drag him all the way out here to see it. But he saw nothing. "I see it."
Trinity smirked. "Isn't it great? I found it the other day when I was walking. It was getting late so I couldn't explore it then. So I decided I'd come back. And now here we are!"
"Indeed." Vanis nodded. "But what does this have to do with training?"
"Did I say it had something to do with training?"
"Yes I believe you did." Vanis replied.
"Oh. Well, I don't know, maybe we'll find some old artifacts and we can meditate about what they were or something." She said quickly.
Vanis shook his head. Why even bother questioning this girl, she was nuts. But he just couldn't help himself. "Why would we do that?"
Trinity shrugged her shoulders. "Because we're curious!"
"We aren't curious, you are." Vanis corrected her.
"Alright so I'm curious, come on, what else have you got to do?" Trinity asked cocking an eyebrow.
She had him there. "Alright I guess I kind of asked for it when I looked for you."
Trinity grinned and hurried along a beaten path toward the temple and Vanis strolled behind her shaking his head. This would be a long day.

Just though some of you on restricted budget might be interested in this. I just built two lightsabers and the total cost for both was under $5.00 (Granted, it may cost you a bit more to buy the handles, but you may have them laying around as I did)

Here's what I used
1) ONE 3/4" PVC Pipe, about 12 feet long ($1.50)
2) ONE Roll of Electrical tape
3) TWO metal tubes from a vacuum cleaner (or any metal pipe that has a larger diameter than the PVC. (I'll post a pic in a little while)

You can decorate the vacuum pipeany way you want, but you simply cut a four foot piece from the 12 foot PVC pipe, put some tape on it if it doesn't fit snuggly into your pipe and VOILA, a neat three foot long saber prop. It won't look good unless you digitally edit it, which I intend to do, of course. Hope this helps. As I said, I'll put the pics up in a few minutes.

Hmmm...depending on your choreography you may want to shorten the blade length to about 30 inches. Longer than that makes spectacular quick hits and parrys impractical.

To the first question, if you take a look at the pics posted here:
http://www.geocities.com/jwkrock/saber/saber.html http://www.geocities.com/jwkrock/saber/saber.html

You can see that if you decorate the hilt (which I haven't yet) it'll look pretty good.

And to the second question, the blade is only three feet long, one foot of it is inside the hilt, and as I've been using it, it works pretty good.

Also, if you are going to use PVC, when practcing, I recommend sliding a foam noodle over it to ease the pain

Oh, and er.... as far as a hilt without the blade, I bought two more similar pipes, because once the PVC is snuggly in, it's VERY hard to remove. These blades a purley for fight scenes, and the blade is not meant to come out.
