IC: Elipe
Jedi Temple
Elipe stood quietly near one of the corners of the entrance watching the newcomer talk to Master Tenro. She could see the anger inside of him as he was rejected. She then watched the two of them as they entered the Turbo lift.
Wow Elipe thought to herself.
Elipe then started to walk down a hallway leading to The Room of Thousand Fountains. As she walked down the hallway she thought to herself about Master Tenro and the Newcomer.
I wonder what they're talking about? She thought.
Hmm I wonder... ahh! Stop being so nosy Elipe! She thought.
As Elipe entered the Room of Thousand Fountains she watched an Padawan in his young adult years scare a young one. She found this amusing and approached the Padawan.
"So do you usually spend your time scaring young ones?" Elipe asked with a laugh.

"Yes, I do usually spend my time time scaring these youngs ones, it teaches both them and me."Altiar said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"And are you always this inquisitive?"

OCC Okay Rade I am coming for you in the main hall if that is the case.
Bwahahahahahaha
IC: Kaelis Ra
Tenro's room was empty, the Jedi Knights guarding the Dark Lord mindless of what they were doing, Kaelis had a slight hold on them, nothing dangerous, just enough to control their actions for the time being. Slowly the group made it's way through the temple, Kaelis' powers stretching out to locate the elusive Grand Master.
After some time the Dark Lord came upon the grand entrance chamber, Tenro stood among other of his order. Quickly Kaelis closed the gap.

OOC: Ok, heres how things are going to go down. Due to the number of people waiting to interact with Tenro, I am going to post around Torrin. This will be happening AFTER their conversation ended. So Raziel unfortunately is still in the no fly zone so to speak. I will get to that as soon as time allows. Also to the new players, I understand that when two people are posting at the same time and the conversation is short, short posts follow. But for future reference please do your best to stay away from 1-2 sentance posts. To make it more interesting, insert thoughts your character may be having while talking, or take notice of something happening around them. The one liners are incredibly nostalgic and make to do little but take up space.
IC: Tenro
Later in the day
The Grand Master of the Jedi order was walking through the hallways at a brisk pace, his loose sleeves hanging wildly around his wrists. He was walking with speed born of confidence and urgency. The talk he had had with young Torrin had taken longer than expected, and he did not like to keep people waiting when he could help it. It made him look lazy and indecisive. He had had Jon and Rikten waiting in the archives for a half hour. The missions that the Temple was stacking up weren't going to do themselves. If push came to shove he would be out on a few at the same time soon. The galaxy was a dangerous place and sometimes all it took was the mere pressence of the Jedi order to settle things down. Galactic peacekeepers, it was what they did.
He walked quickly into the Archives and opened himself to the Force. He immediately found who he was looking for and made his way to the two knights who were chatting idly.
"I appologize for the wait, matters seem to continue to spring up wherever I go. In light of this fact I have decided that due to both of your individual skills. You will be sent on different missions and not working together on a single objective. The Order is in it's greatest time of need and we are starting to spread too thin."
Tenro sat down at the table and pulled out his datapad. He plugged it into the small table-top holoprojector. A small map of the galaxy appeared in the middle of the three Jedi. Tenro's hand rose slowly and the light hanging high over their table began to dim so that there would be no glare.
"Here are your assignments. Jon. I am dispatching you to Trasse. Specifically the Trasse Proving Grounds. Trasse itself is an asteroid. Here."
Tenro pointed at a blip on the map and it zoomed into a large rock with statistics scrolling down the side.
"The proving grounds were once home to a secret AT-AT testing facility during the Imperial era. It was heavily guarded at the time, whether or not it is now remains unknown. The asteroid has not been colonized and few people even know of it's existence. Recently we have recieved word that Imperial sympathizers have re-taken the asteroid as a small gathering place for the Imperial Remnant and have since captured the son of Nuse Fakk, a rather important deligate in the Senate. Republic intelligence tells us that there is at least a small garrison of stormtroopers on the asteroid and have been building a new mobile weapons platform in the likeness of the AT-AT from years ago. I think they are trying to modernize the blueprints and unleash a new kind of destruction on the galaxy in the name of the Imperial Remnant. We cannot let this happen. As of right now Nuse Fakk's son is being held for ransom, if I had to guess it would go towards funding this project for better armament and supplies. The amount they are asking is just short of a fortune. Your job is to get onto that asteroid undetected, find the proving grounds, and get Nuse Fakk's son out of danger. Do not try and sabatoge the effort to build these machines of death, it is too much for one Jedi to handle in one mission. Just record what you find there and we will take the needed measures to deal with the threat. If you run into any trouble whatsoever, I want you to contact me immediately. "
He zoomed out of the asteroid picture and turned to Rikten.
"Knight Rikten, You will be traveling to Bogden III. Durring the clone wars we had a Jedi Training facility there. When Order 66 was issued by the Emperor, the facility was destroyed. Years later, under the eye of Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, the base was rebuilt and reestablished. However again, history repeated itself to a certain extent 40 years after it was rebuilt and again, the base was invaded by the Remnant, a few jedi were killed but all in all the facility was well guarded and was not completely destroyed. We have classes being run there as we speak, the facility is in excellent standing right now. Yesterday I recieved reports from the council stationed there that they have been feeling strange murmers in the Force. I believe this to be a Force Artifact of some kind. They only have Diplomatic masters and apprentices in this facility. I am sending you to investigate the murmers and possibly recover the artifact, if that is what it indeed turns out to be. Otherwise, you are to silence the murmer by any means necessary. We do not need more apprentices falling to the dark side. The Council there has already been instructed of your arrival and has agreed to pool their resources to your disposal. Do what you can to alleviate this problem."
He looked at the two Knights sitting before him and nodded, indicating that he was finished. Master Tenro then waited for questions pertaining to their missions.

IC Jon Antilles
Jon sniffed and shifted slightly in his chair. "Master, there is some backround information that I require for this mission. I consider myself to have a slight knowledge in politics while I ah dont know everything. I will need some back round information on this Delegate Fakk and his son. I am guessing that this politician has done something to annoy the Remnant? I apologize master I do not wish to pile all these questions. I should be able to leave in the next hour if I have a datapad outlining the information that I need.

OOC: Sorry everyone, I didnt mean for the absence but I kinda got into an argument with a tool-shed and the ban hammer took me out and beat my arse for about four days. But, I am back! Eveyrthing will roll smooth from now on, I assure...though I wont post tomorrow till after 6 pm...stupid job.
IC: Jedi Temple
Torrin Katu
Torrin frowned for a moment, collecting himself. He was on dangerous ground here and he didn't like it. He was not use to being in this position...he felt so...vunerable. On the one hand he had a future as a Jedi and on the other a future as nothing. All hinging on the opinion of someone who wasn't him. Relying on other people WAS NOT Torrin's strong point.
"I have a confession. Master Jervol and I had a falling out like I said. And it was about the Shatterpoint technique. But...his shuttle...the accident...it was arranged. My real name is not Katu. I was born Torrin Kuat, as in Kuat Drive Yards. My family...my father actually arranged for the shuttles controls to fail and Jervol crashed into an unmanned drone. I...I knew what my father would do when he heard about the argument...I could have stopped him." Torrin swallowed. "I dont want to end up like him Master Tenro. I do not expect my sins to go unpunished but I would at least like the chance to prove I can be a better man than my father...that I can bring something beyond fear and appeasement to the Kuat name."

IC: Tenro
OOC: Lol, you aren't KIDNAPPING him.. I believe the propper term is rescuing.. lol. "They kidnaped this guys son!" "Yeah?! Well I'm gonna kidnap him right back!" ...That kid is having a heck of a day...
(Later in the day while talking to the knights)
Tenro listened to Jon and his concerns about backround, then nodded.
"No appology required Jon, the information you ask for is of the need to know sort. To answer your question though, Deligate Fakk is the head of the movement currently trying to push the Republic fleets into hunting down and exterminating the remaining imperial remnants. But I suspect that him being one of the wealthiest senators had a large part in helping decide who to kidnap. The Imperials need funding. Fakk both hates them and has large amounts of money to spare. I hope that answers your question."
Tag jon, rikten
(earlier in the day)
Tenro listened to Torrin carefully. He was fully aware of who the boy really was. The luggage itself was evidence of that. He was spoiled and normally got whatever he wanted. But instead of hide in shame and take over his fathers empire. He wanted to become a Jedi and help people. But was it worth the risk?
Tenro peered down at him with his cat eyes.
"It is good that you told me about this Torrin. It shows your capacity for humility and honesty. Things that are essential to a Jedi's life. I will have Knight Veda travel to your father and deal with the situation as requires. He will find out the truth behind things. Sabataging a Jedi Masters shuttle is a serious accusation. One that needs proof."
He stepped forward and clasped his hands behind his back.
"Let me be clear about one thing. Training to be a Jedi is not easy. I doubt that what Master Jervol taught you will have prepared you for what you will face in these hallways. I will be candid with you Torrin. Thus far in your life you have been spoiled and gotten whatever you want had you simply asked for it. That in itself makes you dangerous to us. You will not recieve that treatment here. You will be treated as an equal amongst your peers. Not as the Prince of the Kuat Ship Yards. Many people may indeed recognize you here. I doubt they will care. Becuase they have been here their entire lives. They are a family. You are welcome to become a part of that family... But you must prove yourself in your own way to the ones you will be surrounded by. A Jedi is not a loner, we are one. We work as one. We live... as one. If you can handle that. Then you will be accepted for training. I want you to think about this. It is a life long dedication to something higher than yourself. You come from a life of luxury, A Jedi's life is anything but. We live a life of servitude. Always striving to help others. No one is beneath our gaze. Our power is wielded with responsibility. Not greed. That will be stamped out of anyone undergoing training... immediately. You are welcome to stay here until you make your decision. It is not something I want an answer from you as of right now. Think hard about this decision. It will change your life..."
Tenro bowed slightly and turned to find Tarik coming towards him from one direction, Kaelis Ra, the newly captured sith and his escort of guards coming from the other.
He was surprised to see Kaelis out and about.
Radiant must have talked to him... he feels.... different.
Again Tenro bowed his head, a small nudge was all it took to release the Jedi Guardians minds from Kaelis' hold. Both immediately reached for their sabers but Tenro held a hand up at them and they stopped immediately. The Grand Master could handle himself after all.
"Master Ra, I see you have come out for a stroll. What can we do for you?"
Tenro seemed pleasant enough but his voice had a cold edge to it.

IC: Jedi Temple, Coruscant
Torrin Kuat
Torrin took what Tenro said with a bitten lip. Not even two hours ago he would have not hesitated to lash at the Grand Master with his lightsaber, with the Force...whatever was at hand. An now he just took it. It was not easy. He could feel the rage burning in that shallow spot in his heart. He knew he could use that rage and break Tenro in half. He could easily...
Torrin silenced his inner thoughts as he reached out in the Force and felt. He didnt try to use or manipulate, he just felt. And in that moment he could feel the serene power eminating from Tenro. In all of Torrin rages he could no more harm Tenro than find a natural tree on Coruscant. At that moment he knew Jervol to be correct, this was his path.
But he also knew Tenro to be correct.
"Master Tenro, I will return tomorrow with my answer. I appreciate this chance and...tell your Jedi to be careful...Kuat can be a dangerous place, even for Jedi." Torrin said quietly.

RE: The Jedi Temple

IC: Radiant Tide
The youth of the Tide line had spent a relaxing afternoon with his Mandalorian girlfriend. Just taking time to talk and enjoy each others company. No fighting, no shooting, no sneaking in shadows, no explosions. It felt good, but somehow also left Radiant on edge. As if relaxing was a terrible idea. He had seen so much action for the past 3 years that relaxing seemed like a distant memory. He had almost forgotten what it had felt like. He and Faye had eaten in the cafeteria, a nice light dinner followed by a relaxing talk in Rades room. They had lay there, talking until they fell asleep.
Only.. Rade could not find sleep. He was still edgy. Rest elluded him this night. He had energy burning in his viens that just would not go away no matter how hard he willed it. He had to do something about it or he would wake up Faye by his tossing and turning. She looked so peaceful when she slept. It would be a horrible thing for him to wake her up now. He smiled and kissed her gently on the nose. She grumbled incoherently and turned over.
Radiant slipped out of bed and dressed in simple Jedi robes. Then crossed to his dresser and gently slid the top drawer open. Inside were assorted random items. Amongst them was a small music device. Ear plugs that would fill his brain with noise, taking normal sound away. When they were securely in his pocket he crossed the room, grabbed his lightsaber and clipped it to his belt, then gently slid his door open, and slipped out into the hallway.
He walked for 10 minutes, randomly down the hallways. He passed several students who waved at him. It was late at night. It was surprising to see so many young people awake. Classes had resumed in the Temple since the battle out front. He passed the large courtyard in the center of the temple, it was surrounded by glass walls. Foliage lining the inside where a single plinth had been erected in rememberance of those who had fallen. Rade stopped to look at it. Countless names were etched upon it's surface.
And how many of these deaths were brought about because of my actions I wonder...
He stood with his hands in his pockets, pondering solumnly about the what if's. Had things been different. Would any of these names still be here?
Radiant shook his head and began his walking again. Another 4 minutes saw him at the entrance of the sparring chambers. All were empty, however brightly lit. Given the hour and his photosensitive eyes at the moment, Radiant dialed down the lights to almost nill. This would be the best way to burn his energy.
He crossed the room to where a weapons rack lay, Swords, Staves, Batons, Knives... countless wooden training weapons were ready to be plucked and practiced with. Radiant pulled his shirt off along with his lightsaber belt and tucked them neatly in a corner of the room. He began stretching his arms as the Force was called upon to pluck the ear plugs from his pockets and deposit them in their rightly places. A steady bass like beat began to permeate his skull. Rades eyes closed and he concentrated his awareness on the training computer on the other side of the room. He imagined the buttons he wanted being pressed and nudged them with the Force.
Let's start out light.
The droid storage compartment hidden in the wall slid open and 8 droids filed out, all carrying wooden swords. They circled and surrounded him as 4 training drones dropped from the tubes in the ceiling. Stun bolts already charging and ready to fire.
The beat in Rades head picked up suddenly and his hand flashed out to the weapons rack. A wooden staff was pulled through the air and slapped into his waiting palm. He spun it in an expert hand several times in front of him before switching over and twirling it behind his back, then coming to a stop in a ready position, ending the spin with one hand on the far end of the staff, pointing towards the ceiling, the other hand facing the ground with the other end.
"Begin"
Two droids sprang forward from either side of him, both swung to his left, one high and the other low. Rade's staff swung to the right and a wooden clack was audible in the room as both swords were blocked. He felt a charge behind him in the Force and slammed the bottom of the staff into the ground, then flipped his entire weight over top of the staff, and landed on the opposide side of the swords, dragging the end of the staff with him as a stun bolt soared by and instead of hitting him in the back, clipped the right most droid in the knee joint, dropping it to the ground.
Radiant followed up with his momentum and hopped up in a spin, bringing the staff around in a deadly swing. It nailed the kneeling droid in the face and dropped it to the ground. It was considered a killing blow with the force he had put behind it so the droid stayed down. It's counterpart reacted instantly though by taking another slash, this time vertical, from head to toe. Rade slapped it away with his staff and spun around, bringing the butt end of the staff up under the droids legs and dumping it to the floor. A quick spin and a slap to the control cluster and that droid was out as well. He planted his foot on the chest of the downed droid and did a 540 horizontal spin as 3 stun bolts peppered the area he had been a milisecond before. And then things began to pick up.
As his feet touched the ground, three droids attacked. Two in front and one from behind. The one behind slashed horizontally at Rades midsection, the two in front both slashed down at him at diagonals.
Rade's legs slid appart quickly and he went down in a split, catching the two downward blades on his staff and letting the horizontal sword pass over his hair with a whoosh. A slight push of the Force and a nudge with his staff and the two swords on his staff were pushed up and away, throwing the droids off balance. The staff whirlwinded over his head and slammed into the legs of all three, dumping them to the ground. Rade rocked back and pulled his weight sharply forward, regaining his feet after a precise nip-up. It had brought him over a wild slash from one of the falling droids.
4 stun shots came at him. Only to be met with a blurred wall in front of him. Rade leapt and landed lightly with his feet on both sides of a droids head. He twisted and heard an audible representation of a human neck breaking. Two more slaps and 2 more droids down. Now there was only 3 left. Rade picked up the tempo and his whirling and dodging aroung stun bolts was incredible. The three remaining droids charged him. He took one down easily by launching the staff at point blank range at it's face. It dropped heavily, it's head hanging from wires. Rade pulled the staff back to him with the Force just as the other two struck in unison. The both swung high. Rades staff met them and they locked his staff in a 3 way power struggle. He heaved and the staff went soaring into the air along with two swords. 4 droid hands reached up and grabbed both ends of the staff.
"Bad move."
Rade leapt up on top of the staff and flipped off of it, corkscrewing in the air and catching both wooden blades. He came back down behind the droids and with two clacks both were down.
Stun bolts begain raining down on him from all sides in ferocious torrents. His wooden swords flashed left and right as his body windmilled dodging and intercepting in every direction. Both swords were smoking black as the bolts stopped.
"Simulation ended."
Rade dropped his swords and called his staff back to his hand. Then plucked the ear phones out as his breath was labored. A light chuckle escaped him as the droids began to pick themselves up.
"Better luck next time boys.."
The droid with the dangling head ran into the wall as it's comrades dissapeared back into the wall. One of them looked over.
"You must need maintenance."
"Roger roger."
Clapping resounded from the doorway and Rade turned his sweaty body to the sound, raising an eyebrow.
"Well done Knight Tide."
Rades face cracked into a smirk as he extended his hand. The other man smiled broadly, his pearly white teeth a riot of light against the dark backdrop of the mans black skin. His clean shaven head gleamed even in the dim lighting. He shook Rades hand and stood to admire the younger Knight for a moment.
"Welcome back, Knight Windu..."
