"Keep on running, Old Man!" [ASK/INVITE]

[Teck923]

" Yes, "

Draven was still tramatized by executing the Rodian.

he knew he needed to focus.

"Relax Drake comeone"

He sat on the floor and thought of nothing else but the table and slowly

it lifted up...

he began to manipulate it by moving it around and twisting it.

He sat it down slowly.

"How was tha..?"

 

[D.C.]

"It was good, for the first time." Quentell suddenly said. He had just finished his lunch and he sat back in the seat, with his arms crossed. He watched the young Miraluka performing Force moves and Valek teaching him. The joking man in him had made place for a very serious and wise Shade Knight, and he watched his new student progressing under the teachings of Valek. He had just performed his first telekinesis move. "But there's still much to learn... Imagine a world, full of thugs, bounty hunters, killers, assassins and Dark Jedi, all trying to kill you. They hate you and want you dead. Imagine."

He sighed and remained silent for a while, so Draven could imagine it and think about it. He then continued, after a long silence: "That is the world you have just entered. The world I am living in for over 15 damn years. Realize that, Draven. There is no going back once you become a Force-User. You can still turn away from it and live a normal life, for as much as that's still possible."

 

[Teck923]

I understand master...

Draven said...

"I have never lived a normal life..."

Draven then lifted up his shirt to show his scars and and cuts from almost 4 years ago.

"A life like this is what I'v dreamt up for years... And I know I can make a difference if I learn the Shade techniques

 

[D.C.]

Quentell just nodded and did not comment on the scars he had been shown, by the young Miraluka. Instead he said: "Then on with the lessons. Do you want to continue teaching, Valek?"

 

[Teck923]

"I mean no offence to Valek, but can you instruct me now?"

"Unless your too tired old man."

Draven smirked it would have been the first time Valek or Quen saw the teen smile.

 

[Phil]

"No, I... can keep going. Try meditating once more, focus on nothing more then the can. You could grip it before barely, and you can do it again. Try lifting it off the ground, and moving it to another spot on the table. Just don't sprain your mind too hard..."

Valek replied, ignoring the old man comment from Draven. He made his choice to walk the Shaded path, and so Valek and Quentell would show him the way.

 

[D.C.]

OOC: So you dudes know, I'll be leaving for France friday and I'll be there for 2 weeks. Won't have internet there, so you'll have to wait 2 weeks until my return XD

 

[Teck923]

OOC: Is it okay with both of you two. If Valek trains Draven? In a training thread considering the Shade Order is back or Phil just train my chracter how ever until you get back? Only if it's okay wirh the both of you.

IC:Draven looked at the can and moved his hand.

"If I can move my hand with no thoughf I should be able to life the can with no thought."

So draven using jist instinct, Held the can in mid air and twisted it around.

And slowly set it on the other table.

Draven then lifted his weaponry and set it on the other table.

"I can do it somewhat"

 

[D.C.]

OOC: Phil can training you, of course. If he wants to. I can continue to train you when I get back, or Phil can become your whole new master, I don't mind at all^^

 

[Teck923]

Would it be wierd to have 2 masters? Lol... And if it's okay with Phil, just until you get back

 

[D.C.]

OOC: Or just be patient... XD But I suggest we get IC again though

 

[Teck923]

OOC:Lol well im waiting for either you or Phil to reply to my post

 

[Phil]

OOC: It don't matter to me, we can wait for DC to return or me and Teck can continue training, it's up to you two.

IC: "Well done. In time, you will be able to lift heavier objects and move them farther then this, but it will take time and training. For now, I want you to just meditate for about an hour. If the Shade Order is no longer around, then it will be up to us to figure out how to make the next move."

 

[D.C.]

"How long will it take until we get there, Valek?" Quentell asked. He had not paid attention to the old man comment either, because he did not think it was worth his attention. He was not in a joking mood at the moment.

OOC: Well, the plan was that I would train Draven. But if Teck doesn't have patience then he should find a new master, and that's fine with me. So it's actually up to him.

 

[Teck923]

OOC: Well it's only 2 weeks. I don't mean heavy training just basic stuff.

IC: Draven sat and thought about the force the Shade Order. And his past life.

 

[Phil]

"How long will it take until we get there, Valek?" Quentell asked. He had not paid attention to the old man comment either, because he did not think it was worth his attention. He was not in a joking mood at the moment.

"Not too long, maybe about a half hour."

Valek answered, looking over to Quentell as Draven meditated. Both Knights must have been through hell over the past decade, possibly other Shade Knights have suffered the same as the Jedi. Valek had always wondered what happened to the Ospions, as they seemed to have disappeared around the same time of the Alsakan's defeat. Was it possible that they joined the Hutts?

 

[Teck923]

Draven looked up at Valek as he was deep in thought.

"May I ask you something?... Valek I can sense and feel much turmoil within you. How do you keep balance?"

Draven couldn't help but wonder.

 

[Phil]

Valek was slightly surprised that Draven was able to sense what was going on in Valek's head and what he was feeling. Turning away from Quentell, he looked towards Draven as he remained silent for a brief moment before answering.

"The same way that I have been for the past twenty four years, before I became a Shade Knight and before I became a mercenary..."

Valek's past before he was a mercenary was something he did not talk about much, not even to Quentell. It was not a too touchy subject for Valek, just full of painful memories.

 

[Teck923]

"It is hard not to feel it, maybe because i'm Miraluka, I do not know. But I can feel it. I know I have not the turmoil you have had. But my life... Is not one of happiness or joy."

 

[Phil]

""It is possible. Though not many do these days have good lives, not with this war between the Republic and the Hutts. It does not matter which side comes out the victor, it's going to end the same way every war has always ended. The winner will just force their government system onto the rest of the galaxy, only in the Hutt's view, there won't be any Jedi, Ospion or anyone who uses the Force."
