Quentell felt the slight Force Push that Raiden sent to him, but it did not cause much damage. However, he was forced to take a step back, and thus the Push was used in the right way.

Then Raiden dashed towards him and swung his lightsaber towards Quentell's right shoulder. Quentell blocked the strike and then quickly turned around as Raiden had rolled behind him.

Quentell raised his own lightsaber and delivered an overhand powerblow, a typical Djem So move. It was a strong attack and Quentell was adept in the Form he was using. However, if Raiden was unable to block the strike, Quentell would quickly switch his blade off, before it would hit Raiden, so nobody would get hurt.

Raiden managed to throw his own saber in the way. But the blow pushed him back and he fell onto his back. His own lightsaber shut off and he sat there. He knew he had been beat. But that's what training is for. He got up and didn't know weather to continue or not.

He let out a slight laugh, "Master you beat me." and smiled.

Quentell deactivated his lightsaber as well. "That is a good thing, to be able to admit when you are defeated."

He smiled as well and clipped his lightsaber to his belt. "You did well though, for a newcomer. Follow me please."

He then started to walk to the entrance of the enclave itself. He walked past the doors and he went all the way upstairs to the training room where he always trained his apprentices. He typed in a code on the panel next to the door and the doors slid open.

"This is our training room." Quentell said. "Please, come in."

After Raiden had entered the room he closed the doors and he walked to the center of the room.

"Do you have any suggestions on what you want to learn? Any specific things you want? Or perhaps questions? Now is the time to ask."

As Raiden trailed after his master he made sure he examined all the things that they passed before they made it to the Training area. He was amazed although he was a prince back on his homeland. No royalties or anything could have matched the beauty of the enclave.

He made his way into the enclave. After he was asked the question he stood and thought for a while.

"Well, Master, I think the best question to ask is... What all can you teach me? I was trained well with my lightsaber but as you said i've lost my touch. I also want to learn more about the force. But I have basic moves down. Force pull, push, speed. Again all the basics but I want to learn the more advanced ones. I want to become one with the force. That's all master."

"You showed me you can use Push and Pull in the sparring match. But I'd like a demonstration of your Speed. Run from one end of the room to the other. Show me how fast you are."

He stepped aside and watched his apprentice demonstrating Force Speed.

"I know this one to. Master you know I was in the Jedi Order for a little amount of time. They taught me little things, but I assume you can teach me better." Raiden smiled at the man. He knew the master was very strong.

Raiden jogged for a moment and then momentarily thought to himself about speeding up. He hit a burst and used force to push him far and his legs moved faster. He made his way to the other end of the room in a matter of seconds.

"Very well done." Quentell said. "That was a good demonstration of Speed, although you could become better in it by practicing it more. You can become even faster than that."

In the blink of an eye, Quentell stood beside Raiden. Quentell himself had fully mastered Force Speed and looked at his apprentice. He did not want to show off, he just wanted to show an example of how fast one could become.

"However, I think you know enough about Speed for now. You can become faster if you train by yourself, I don't need to teach you that. It's just a matter of experience." He explained. "I would like to teach you a very handy technique now." he smiled.

~It's called telepathy. It's very useful, back on Coruscant Valek and I sent telepathic messages to each other all the time and so we could discuss things without people overhearing us.~

"To use it." he continued by speaking normal again. "You must concentrate on the Force like you always do and then think of the words you want to send to the person you want to communicate with. Then, connect with the other person through the Force and send the words through the Force straight into his or hers mind. What you basically need is to be one with the Force completely and then sent the words via your mind to the other's mind. Try to send a telepathic message to me now."

Raiden was far too impressed of his master's skills. He heard what he had said and he tried to follow the instructions. In a matter of seconds it was quiet and he was connecting with the force. He thought of some words and tried to send them to his master.

~I th..n I d.d it.

The words didn't come clear, he had to have practice. He looked at his master and was curious on weather or not he did it okay. "Was that good?" Raiden assumed he did better then previous padawans. But he wasn't quite sure.

"It's a start." Quentell said. "Your message did not come through clearly."

~Why don't you try it again?~

Raiden attempted one last time, this time he concentrated more.

~I think I did it.~

This time it came through successfully.

"That's right, Raiden." he said. "You did it."

He smiled and then stepped over to the center of the room.

"There is an ability called Force Heal. When you're out adventuring or on a mission and you get hurt, you can heal your wounds using the Force. You can heal others as well using this power."

"In principal, it is the same as using Force Speed or other powers as you'll have to call upon the Force. Yet you'll have to concentrate on your wounds and then sent the Force over to them to heal that wound. You might not be wounded now, but you can still practice the power. Let the Force flow through you and concentrate on a spot on your body. Either your arm or your leg, or somewhere else. And course the Force through that spot. You will feel a slight warm feeling meaning the Force is trying to heal that spot."

"I think I understand what you're saying. I'll try it and get back to you whenever I try the ability. I'll report to you weather or not it works or not. I believe I can do it though."

Raiden was happy he was getting taught new things, he loved learning.

"What else do you have to offer master?" Raiden smiled.

"Raiden." Quentell said. Suddenly he changed and he sounded calm and serious. "Have you ever..." he paused for a while. "...Have you ever been so damn angry, you felt like murdering somebody? Have you ever been so angry that you lost yourself in anger and hatred?"

He looked at Raiden with cold and emotionless eyes. "Have you... ever touched... the Dark Side?"

Raiden nodded no for a moment. Then a few seconds later he changed his mind. Before his master could say anything he said.

"Wait! I think I have. When my father died. I wanted to.. kill the man who harmed him." Raiden mentioned.

"Yeah?" Quentell asked. "You did?"

He waited a few moments before he continued. "I have fallen to the Dark Side in the past. I tasted its power, its strength. But it is not something you want. When I joined the Shade Order I learned how to control my anger. How to tap into my darkness and use it for the light. I taught myself how to control my anger, instead of it letting control me. It is something I teach all of my students and it is something I will teach you. Are you ready?"

"I suppose." Raiden didn't really know what to say, he didn't have that sort of experience because as a child he wasn't exposed to it. He was just ready to see what his master had to say and what had to become of him.

"First of all, I will give you an explanation of what I mean." Quentell said. "There are serveral 'dark side' Force powers like Grip and Lightning. Grip is used to choke people and with Lightning one... well... unleashes a wave of Force Lightning. Those powers are considered Dark Side. However, powers are not good or evil. It's just how you use them. I use Grip and Lightning myself a lot in combat, but I don't use them for the Dark Side."

"What you basically need to do is call upon your greatest anger and tap into that emotion. Then, call upon the Force and unleash your attack. There is one rule however, NEVER let the Dark Side take control of you, but take control of the dark side instead. Do you understand?"

"I believe so, are you going to teach me these moves? I'm anxious to use them to be honest. They seem powerful." Raiden was serious, he was a good guy. Not bad.

"Then we shall begin!" Quentell said and he clapped with his hands. Suddenly it seemed like all light faded and Raiden was trapped in a big dark empty space. The whole room had disappeared, even Quentell was gone.

Slowly an area appeared. It was a dark back alley. When the area was there, up ahead a young Twi'lek girl was being beaten down by a Human thug. He was punching her and kicking her and if nobody did something, she would be beaten to death.

~Do you see that girl over there? That thug is beating the life out of her! Doesn't that make you angry? Doesn't it wake your hatred? Tap into your hate and anger and use it to strike that thug down with the Force, to save that girl!~ Quentell's voice sounded in Raiden's head, but still Quentell was nowhere to be seen.

OOC: Use either Force Grip or Lightning to kill the thug.

~It does...~

Raiden was very angry, he took a moment to think. He aloud himself to become one with the force. He walked to the thug and grabbed him with a bare hand and threw him to the side. He then tapped down into the force and a stream of lightening flicked into the body of the thug.

The thug was full of motion, and now he was nothing. He turned around and helped the Twi'lek girl up. Raiden then felt the stream of anger leave his body. He did something simple but in the long end. He learned how to use Force Lightening.
