Pan's Training
- Thread starter Joker
- Start date
"Don't get me wrong," she said, "Djem So masters are a blur when they fight, but it is not as acrobatic as Ataru." She handed him a training saber and then drew her own, "follow me," she said and started to show him the basics of Djem So.
"Your form is a little edgey, but you are putting the strength in alright," she said. He needed more of a challenge to improve though, "spar with me," she waited for him to attack, dropping into her own Ataru stance.

Pan nodded, giving his master a thoughtful, "Sizing up" once over. He knew better than to judge strength by size. Not where the Force was involved. He settled into the stance she had shown him and launched into an agressive serries of strikes. He fueled his considerable strength into the movements he had just learned, allowing the Force to guide him and aid his stamina.

He had opened himself up to the Force and he let it fuel him. He was very impressive, especially for his first real sparring contest. But she had more experience and stayed in control. He leaps and twists made her seem to be defying gravity, and she began to test his defense. He was not tiring and the Force guided his lightsaber. So she decided to up the tempo.
Pan had a difficult time keeping up and was forced to take the defensive. Even with the Force to guide him it was difficult- she moved so fast! He turned his focus to maintaining a steady defence, only getting in a jab every now and then. At this pace he wasn't sure how long he could keep it up.
She saw him tiring and stopped.
"There is a technique, something many practitioners of Ataru, Djem So and Juyo rely on, where they let the Force fuel them as energy. It allows you to fight for much longer, much more effectively. To use it, just open yourself up and let the Force fuel you," she said. It sounds simple, but it is much harder to actually do it.

Pan gave himself over to the Force. It was much easier to keep pace this way. He still didn't have much time to get any attacks in but he worked on it, pressing forward with a growl. The aggressive style suited his approach, blocking and repelling attacks.
Pan took cautious advantage of her shift into the defensive with a steady barrage of aggressive strikes and jabs. The plan, as suited this form, was to win by way of overwhelming force before he tired, which with the Force could be a while but he didn't want to push it. However, he wasn't expecting anything like a victory against one so experienced; He aimed to impress.
Pan nodded. He intended to train in the form at every given opportunity.
"It is constructed with a crystal, power cell and cylindrical metal. Each Jedi constructs their own. I have studied the process briefly." The Cathar replied, hoping his excitement wasn't too obvious. Building his own lightsaber was something he very much looked forward to.

"True," she said, "but it is not a Jedi's weapon, it is a tool. And your lightsaber should be more than something for combat, it should be your only true possession and it should reflect you in it's craft. What about the crystals you mentioned, what do you know of them?"
