    And now the conclusion...




    Victory Quest IX:




    Memorial Day

    There needs to be a time where we can appreciate the work that the Jedi have done. The sacrifices that they have made. This time will be in three weeks: the anniversary of the start of the war. Memorial Day - Palpatine


    Round One: Vunian vs. Dooku
    Belkadan- The First Annual Memorial Day

    The cave was large, large enough for Dooku?s ship to fit through and land. Rince Vunian was hell bent on reaching that ship and killing it?s occupant. Yet Master Vunian was missing one tidbit of information: Dooku?s ship had two people in it and the second person was even deadlier than Dooku.
    The gravel on the ground of the cave rose and fell as Jedi Knight Rince Vunian ran towards the large opening at the back of the cave. The opening was like a giant mouth ready to eat Rince Vunian for lunch. Nevertheless Vunian ran as if he was a man gone insane. Perhaps he was.
    Rince Vunian had only one thought in his mind and that was to reach and kill Dooku. It seemed, to him, that he had to do that. Justice must be served, he thought to himself. It?s only fair. He was responsible of the death of Zair McDashin and countless other Jedi. When Rince Vunian had to speak and name some of the Jedi that had died at a large funeral service a few months ago, Rince knew that Dooku had to die. First the Jedi killed Dooku?s pawn, Defera, then he set his sights on Dooku. Now he had the chance to end it all.
    There was one part of Vunian?s mind that screamed at him. You shouldn?t be doing this! Something isn?t right, it said. Vunian did not listen. He blocked off that part of his brain even though he knew that what it was saying was true. It was too late now, though. He had to go through with this. The confrontation had to happen. Dooku must die!
    There he was. Inside the hole in the cave stood Count Dooku, leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, also know as Darth Tyrannous, Sith Lord.
    There was no exchange of words as Rince Vunian ran towards Dooku. Both knew what was going to happen.
    Rince Vunian ignited his green lightsaber as he leapt into the air and struck down at Dooku. With a swift motion Dooku ignited his own red lightsaber and the two saber?s met with a screech as energy beam hit energy beam.
    Vunian through himself backwards and slashed out at Dooku with his blade. With an inhuman howl Vunian charged forward and hacked at Dooku?s head and Dooku brought up his saber to block the attack. The Jedi Knight was quick and fought against Dooku pushing him backwards, farther into the cave. Yet, for some reason, it seemed as if Dooku was really in command.
    The sabers clashed and the two opponents charged back and forth at each other with intense anger. The two men slowly circled around each other lashing out at odd moments. The blue walls of the cave were scorched as sparks flew.
    Vunian moved forward and put Dooku back on the offensive forcing him backwards. The two were slowly moving towards a small tunnel in the side of the wall that led back up to the surface and, eventually, to the top of a cliff.
    Dooku?s elegant movements seemed to clash with Vunian?s clunky, yet powerful, assaults. Screeches echoed throughout the cave as the combatants entered the small tunnel. Dimly lit it was harder to fight. After a few moments light filtered through and the men came out of the cave and attacked each other harder than before. Finally Dooku jumped backwards and the battle entered into a stalemate mode.
    Neither moved yet both looked as if they were the predator and the other was the prey.
    The eerie silence was broken when Vunian charge forward and brought up his saber and brought it back

    Let me just say a couple of things:

    1) I really enjoyed writing this story. A lot.
    2) Not only was this fun, I learned a lot and I'm sure my next story will be better. I don't think this story was nomination worthy in the least bit(but I won't stop you ;)) but I had a fun time and I hope all of you did.

    Enjoyed Count Dooku casually baiting Rince along, lovely elegant parries baiting Rince along. Loved Dooku?s nice urbane comments and that even when Rince regained a measure of control and was fighting smarter that Dooku was not fooled in the least bit by the others fake moves.

    Nice manipulation by Sideous and I enjoyed Dooku demanding answers. Always a problem the idea that Count Dooku would be satisfied to be subordinate to anyone.

    Liked the continued mental manipulation by Sideous while Rince was semi-conscious. Makes you wonder just how much was really Rinces own mind speaking to him and how much was Sideous influencing his thoughts and memories towards those directions.

    Enjoyed that as soon as Rince got his answers that the trapdoor opened. Good planning by Sideous to get Rince to that point and good planning to leave a backup copy of himself just in case.

    Thanks for the PM.

    Oh PoQG you may be interested in my new Obi-Wan story. While it does take place during the Clone Wars a good quarter or more is flashbacks with Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon.

    BTW Qui-Gon is tied for my favorite character. The other is Palpatine. :D
