Xephron kept his balance on the balls of his feet. Being a practitioner of a longblade lightsaber style gave him a small advantage in this situation because having extended blades allowed him to keep his attackers at a good distance while still being effective. Rade remembered hearing something about the Yuuzhan Vong that came back to him now.
They consider themselves warriors of honor... they wont take me in a charge over the prospect at one on one combat.
Xeph hoped that that was true. It was banking on a lot of faith. He stood up a little straighter, exiting his low crouch.
"If you want him, then take him from me. I challange you all to individual combat. If I lose then take your prize."
The Vong started speaking to one another in their language. He couldnt tell what they were saying or even the general notion of the their meanings. One gruff looking warrior stepped forward with his amphistaff.
Good. Now I have a fighting chance.
Xephron Tide backed up as the circle opened up. The warrior wasted no time and came at him. The Jedi Knight sidestepped, batted his staff to the side and struck out with a kick to the back of his knee which should have dropped his enemy, but this one was skilled and turned his fall into a roll. He came back up swinging, Xeph could only parry most, blocking outright with an opponent with this much raw strength with two individual blades was more than difficult. The Jedi Knight continued parrying until he received an unexpected kick to the stomach, which folded him over and launched him backwards. He didnt have time to save it into a backflip. He hit the ground hard. The wind was knocked from him as the warrior closed on him for the kill.
Xeph watched helpessly as the staff was raised over him. It happened in slow motion...
The staffs blade came down.
His legs whipped around and scissored around the warriors legs, dumping him to the floor and sending his amphistaff out of the way.
The warrior hit the floor.
Xephron did a nip-up and landed with his legs on either side of the warriors head.
The warrior's eyes opened in disbelief.
Xephs legs tightened and twitched to the side.
The warriors neck snapped and he was dead.
Xephron moved away from the corpse breathing heavily, Moving back to face the group again. He could see the anger on the faces of the other warriors, they all wanted a chance to prove their superiority to him.
Great... 1 down, 4 to go..... and I am already worn out. But just as he thought this, he spotted le'il coming out of the hold of her vessel.
Hope exploded into his being as she decended.
Tag: blue, le'il.
OOC: The "Sith looking person" is someone your character would know Leil. Since I came in late to the game, I played it off as being away at another temple, but he is still a Jedi Knight that your character would be familiar with.

OOC: I’m sure we’ll see soon enough  *slaps self around the face* well I appear to be slightly more awake now so here goes.
IC: S’uun Esh
And it had all been going so well too, the subaltern had thought inwardly as yet another Jeedai apparently rushed to Andre’s aid – not that it would help, and his challenge was a pointless one, surely he too could not be in as much denial as his counterpart? And then again why not? They all seemed to be in some form of denial or thereabouts. Xephron’s challenge was not something to be taken lightly either, it was something to be accepted without thought, no one challenged someone else within Yuuzhan Vong society – least of all among the warrior caste- and expected the other side to back down. If they had they would have been killed outright anyway so one should always be prepared for that inevitability.
When the words had been issued, the warriors all glanced at one another, choosing to discuss who went first in their own tongue amongst themselves. S’uun Esh, outranking those of the group she commanded, would never have gone first unless she stated otherwise – let the least experienced have their turn, test the worth of this Jeedai first, one of them may find glory in doing so. In any case, something had already caught the subaltern’s eye, the female Jeedai, Li’el was back on her feet – albeit unsteadily – and stalking her way out of the wreck of a ship. Even at this distance S’uun Esh was certain she could see the fury in the young Jeedai’s eyes at having had all around her near-decimated. Good, the subaltern thought to herself, hoping that the fire in that one’s belly matched the fury in her heart – she had meant every word when she had said it would be her honour to kill these ones and she never went back on her word.
Naught but five meters away, the first warrior went down, neck snapped cleanly in a lightening quick snap-move from the Jeedai, who was now beckoning the next one to come. The fallen warrior’s amphistaff slithered away back towards the group of warrior watching with keen eyes, eager to have their chance at defeating the Jeedai before them. Interesting, an abhorrent failure was slowly but surely turning into something much more palatable…and S’uun Esh was only too happy to indulge them for the meanwhile. But was not such a similar situation the downfall of a certain commander Shedao Shai at Ithor? He’d fought over the fate of a world and as part of the bargain that some personal belongings be returned to him – did this bode well for their party on a smaller scale or not? Such thoughts unsettled the warrior some, but she could not let it sway her decision – not now.
Extending her arm, S’uun Esh beckoned the loose amphistaff to coil around her forearm, taking a brief moment to examine the spiteful weapon to check for damage – when satisfied she turned her attentions to Li’el, just as had been with Andre, this one’s time had come also – and she was not about to shy from that arduent task either. Something did not sit right with her about this whole situation however, the Jeedai had chosen not to approach any further than she had already, which meant she must have some form of ranged weapon with her – or merely be about to rely souly on jeedai sorcery. Keeping one eye on the unconscious form of Anre and unwilling to leave the current group in case they considered her sudden departure cowardice in the face of a challenge from Xephron, she had no choice but to wait, take precise aim with the handful of razor bugs she had left, and hope that Li’el was provoked enough to come to her.

Xephron used a small application of the Force and his jedi training to calm his breathing as the next opponent approached. He returned one of his lightsabers to his belt and kept his red blade in front of him. He had to end these bouts quickly to try and get to Le'il.
The new opponent was definatly more cautious then the last. He didnt rush. He was more patient, wanting Xeph to make the first move. Yuuzhan Vong were worthy opponents to say the very least because all of his enhanced skills would be put to the test with them. With a normal opponent his dark red eyes could determine certain avenues of attack that the person was thinking about. With the Yuuzhan Vong being outside of the Force, Xephron had to rely solely on skill. One slip and it could mean everything comes to an end.
He had patience but for his circumstances presently he really didnt have time to wait. He closed with the warrior and pressed in straight. And just as he had thought, the first foe had been the weakest. Which was saying something. This one wasn't only strong physiclly but he was smart. That was dangerous. The two crossed weapons again and again, pushing the others defenses to their limits. Trying to find a weakness. Over and over they clashed. Xephron's mouth broke into an endulgant smile. He would avoid fighting if he could help it. He never enjoyed unleashing his skills on people. But once he had no choice. He completely gave himself to the battle. There was nothing he enjoyed more than fighting a truely skilled opponent that could push his skills to the max.
So far he had faught the creature to a standstill, but it was time to reach into his bag of tricks.
Xephron made a wide sweep with his lightsaber, bringing the vongs sword arm away from his body. Xeph grabbed his wrist with his off hand and spun around the whole arm, coming to a stop standing back to back with the warrior. His own sword arm swinging around and in mid-motion his lightsaber was switched to a backhand grip. The blade caught the warrior in the front of the neck and sizzled straight through as Xephs momentum carried the blade back towards his own neck. He used that same momentum to spin on the floor and end in a low crouch with the blade behind his back holding a hand out to the rest of the group as their second comrade sank to his knees, with his head landing on the floor behind him.
Two down.... this is wearing me out though.
tag Blue, Le'il, and the most unconcious andre.

(sorry its short)
The Armored female jedi Li'el, picked one of the three vongs that had slit away from the circle enclosing the two other jedi, Li'el races towards them, she leaped over them, landed and stabbed one through the armpit, and leg sweeping another, the 3rd turned to strike. Li'el blocked the Vong's blow and rolled away into the sight of a seeker it make a shrill sound followed by the FWOO like sound as it fired its explosive flechettes, they hit the floor as li'el rolled away they popped a second or two later. The 3rd Vong performed a series of slash, and slices, Li'el either dodged or blocked the blows and spun around the 3rd Vong as the Seeker fired another burst of flechettes, the flechettes pepperd the back of the vong peircing the crab armor then ripping large chunks out as the flechettes exploded. Li'el used the 3rd vong's blood covered body as a shield once more and rolled aside throwing her saber with percision into the Seekers eyes and recallinng it. Li'el Glared at the rest of the vong. liel had taken down 3 vong grunts a nd one seeker with little effort thanks to her small size and speed.

OOC: Not dead, people have just been busy I imagine, i've been on loan for the past 2 days so I couldn't get online.
IC: S'uun Esh
Another warrior had fallen to Xephron's blade, this was of little surprise to the subaltern of course, that one had been a bit wet behind the ears in terms of combat experience and to be thrown into the midst of things with a Jeedai, still - he had an honourable death granted to him.
The female Jeedai had suddenly seemed to have lost her slightly dazed state, as if someone had flicked a switch in her mind and she had suddenly found her strength, more Jeedai sorcery no doubt, and she was using it most proficiently too - much to S'uun Esh's annoyance. The time had come to step up to the line again, and it was a risk she would gladly take, if the gods favoured her this day, they would not fail her now if she tried her upmost.
Snapping her amphistaff to a rigid and straight form, the subaltern brought the staff round in a large sweeping horizontal arc towards the join between armour and helmet of Li'el's apparell. Not waiting to witness the results of this, she then ducked low still continuously in motion to lock blades with the other Jeedai, who had barely finished his work on the last warrior before Li'el had unceremoniously caused the others to expire. Capturing the lightsaber into a bind, S'uun Esh could hear the deep sizzle of the light-weapon's heat beging to crack and burn the rigid skin of her own weapon - the amphistaff's head hissing manically as it spat venom in protest of it's injuries. It would break soon, the subaltern knew this from experience and so was forced back out of the bind with a large shove against her opponent's blade in an attempt to knock him away from her just far enough to miss if he decided to strike her.
Again, a second later, she brought the rigid amphistaff up to bear down upon Xephron's blade in a vicious upper-cut, twisting away momentarily to spare a glance in the other Jeedai's direction. Satisfied she was free from that one's attention for at least a second or two, she parried her opponents attempt at breaking her defences, lightsaber missing her by a hairs breadth as she twisted her own weapon into a whip-like state once more, sending the venomous head whooshing out to spit it's heavily acidic poison into the face of Xephron, if it hit it would burn into his vision and be quickly absorbed. Dead had not been her plan, but it was most certainly more favourable than this Jeedai being an escapee.

Xephron was taken off guard by le'il's assault and barely had enough time to react to the attack directed towards himself. He saw venom flying at his face.
..Oh not good...
Xeph twisted his head down and away from the line of attack just in time to feel the venom whiz by his face. So close was the venom that flecks of it flew off and singed the side of his face. But no permanent damage was done, nothing a little bacta wouldn't heal later.
Xeph hit the ground hard from that manveuver and turned his harsh fall into a clumsy roll. He came back up with his lightsaber blazing across his eyeline in a low to the ground battle stance. He searched for his assailant and noticed he was now on the far side of her, she was in between him and Le'il. All of her entourage were down now due to Le'il's surprise attack. He scooted forward slowly, his blade never left his eyeline as he moved nearer to the subaltern.
Tag Blue, le'il

Li'el turn into the view of the female vong, she spot her left arm up and let the living staff crack against her gantlet, she thrusted her lightsaber at the vong's head but missed as her opponate dodged. Li'el used almost everything from her training with her now gone master, he had made her master fighting without the force to assist, after she had learn to fight without the force, she was taught to add it to enhance her moves and her power. Sjet leaps out of the way and landed near Andre, she glanced at his prone form, and caried him in fireman style, to her ship. SHe laid Andre down in the messy cargo hold, her droid had already started to do the repairs. she raced back to help the other jedi, she leaped and parried a blow that was ment for Xephron, in a blindingly fast motion she drew the small hand held slug thrower and fired a quik 4 round burst into the she-vong's right knee, the rounds slammed into the knee, Li'el hoped if the round didnt go through the armor it would burn with pain from impact since li'el fired at point blank range of a foot away...

OOC: You might need to refresh my memory a bit, but aren't you supposed to let me decide weather or not to take the hit? My Character was not really standing still and if she'd seen that coming ( being as she was on guard from all visible sides) she would try to avoid it. The first round - if meeting it's target - would hit her with enough force at that range to knock her off balance or knock her over anyway? I thought it was a general rule of most RP's that people could not directly effect another persons character, you can imply - send things their way, but not say "that hit you." if you get me?
As it is....i'll post later on.
