In Space Evenings Last Forever

[darkhaert]

Ledo's exceeding Yuki's expectation, exceeded beyond her previous data of thought. But He still has plenty to learn from the form of his bubble, and the bursts that he commits were only minor, and it doesn't take more than a barrier to neutralize each unwelcoming aspects of the Force. As a soresu swordsmaster, she doesn't have to exaggerate every attack she makes. A lightsaber would cut anything finely despite the lack of force from the wrist and arm. This makes it easier for her open hand to move freely and counter each hostile attack from the Force.

But when Ledo created that powerful Force Bubble burst, she had to respond by creating a thick layer of barrier to keep her stance from falling.

Kahl'l, on the other hand, was blown back, but quickly able to stand up to continue his barrage of strikes.

Yet as Kahl'l stood, he'd have no time to attack as his body would have been seized as his thoughts and actions were devoted to reengaging physical attack. As Kahl'l stood, his body was thrown with a pulling force right into the back of Yuki's body as her attention was forward on her deflections and not her back.

Yet further, and simultaneous with Kahl'l's thrown movement at Yuki, Ledo reached further out with a hand that quickly expanded another bubble behind Yuki's deflection - just before her face. This intruding bubble would expand as quickly as an explosion, yet was not one as it's size would freeze after reaching a sphere just bigger than Yuki yet having began as small as a dust particle. This bulge in space would have similar effect as an explosion as well, knocking her back into the colliding course of Kahl'l.

Upon collision, AND ONLY IF THE TWO COLLIDED, Ledo would then form his strongest Protection Bubble yet around the two and begin a combined assault of Protection Bubble and Force Crush. Within the confines of this Bubble, his intimate knowledge of Force Crush would gain advantage with any level of knowledge that Yuki may have with Protection Bubble. In this, he'd crush them.

Upon noticing what Ledo done in front of her, the bubble about to explode, she used telekinesis to push herself out of the way. But she couldn't sense Kahl'l's flight. She slammed onto him, and when the explosion happened she covered herself with barrier, enough to stop any critical damage. But Kahl'l was left unprotected, so he was thrown far from her.

She then screamed: "Stop! I know what you're going to do! Wait a minute—!"

Ledo stood with his hands up, a new expression on his face of fading exstacy in surprise of her call to stop.

His eyes followed her with a stiff neck, unable to understand why she had called for such a halt to their 'play'... as if to wait for her reason to be spoken.

She stood up wiping off the dust on her. Anything Ledo would have thrown she would have taken it, and survived. But she didn't want to be in pain that evening. Even if it was what Ledo desired. Kahl'l, knocked out, levitated out of the exit. Yuki'squa took him out of the way. It would seem he's more trouble than she first thought.

"It would be better just between us. Hammer, activate sprinkler in training cell. Don't pour too much." She created a small force bubble, the size of a balloon, and watched the water fall on it. "This may take a while," she said to Ledo.

Ledo's lowered gaze held the blurry fuzz of his out of focus bushy eyebrows near the tops of his dead stare. He was not amused, nor in the mood for patience. However, he was nearing his limits, and so would take the time to oblige Yuki's strange interruption and excusing of Kahl'l.

Ledo's eyes looked up and down, following the water as it dribbled down the edges of the bubble; sprinkling out of the pout that it did, Ledo pictured thick bubbling blood smacking onto the bubble's surface instead... a pleasant thought to aid his wavering virtues.

...Ledo began to ponder the extents of Yuki's usefulness out loud. "And what if I were to absorb an attack such as the likes you have given to me? ...Hmmm? Would that drain me so?"

Ledo faltered a step to catch his shifting weight. He began to feel fatigued in the moment of stillness, realizing the stress he had been putting on his focus and Force use. Ledo wondered if it might be wiser to absorb an attack rather than to deflect it.

It was idle chat in Ledo's mind, chat to pass the time while he waited for her. He simply wondered which was the better tact between the two: deflection or absorption?

The falling water stopped, and the Force bubble fell on the floor, intact. She stabbed her lightsaber into the half filled Force bubbled. The water evaporated but could not escape. The force bubble was cloudy inside, but one could still hear the water.

"I would never absorb energy, since it's a dangerous move. It would leave you open. And maneuvering the energy alone to go by with yours is risky, and costly. My preference is towards deflecting attacks. Absorption, I believe, is best done when a hostile energy is inevitable."

She removed her lightsaber, and the Force bubbled spun rapidly, creating a frictional sound of solid against air. The force bubble stopped spinning. It levitated and stood on top of Ledo's Force bubble.

Yuki was wet, but satisfied with what she'd done. Inside the force bubble was ether, and it was colorless. It would explode, covering anyone with its vapor and cloud, upon a human touch. And its effects were enough, or even too much, to nullify all senses.

"Let me explain further, my Pseudon. Would you kindly catch the ball, please." She smiled and walked closer to him.

Ledo lifted out a flexed palm at the end of the 'v' shaped bend of his arm, thus catching the sphere of Yuki's progression.

Spread still with planted shoulder width trunks into the floor, Ledo grew in discomfort and impatience of the lesson's slowing course. Certain of her knowledge and intent, Ledo cared only for progress. It was simply his character, as his everyday radical spontaneity was most aggressive and in constant motion. Waiting around was not in his body's programed welcome...

The bubble that contained the chemicals exploded, and out with it the ether cloud, the ether liquid, and the vapors. The victim need not breath for the vapors to enter, for pressure is enough to force it into open spaces. The receptors in his olfactory organs will accommodate the ether molecules. And even with a hesitant blink the chemicals could enter his body, and reach his nervous system. Only a few doses were needed to waver his senses.

Once sensing the chemicals action, she moved in closer. "You see, My Pseudon, the liquid that covers you is Ether. And it's an anesthetic." The scientist in her kicks in as she strolled towards him with her lightsaber hanging by her hand and burning the metal floor. "Anesthetic behaves by slowly removing sensation. And the more you absorb it, the intense its effects become, because absorption requires your body to utilize itself as a sponge, after transmuting hostile energy. Unlike hostile energy, chemicals are not hostile, they are very much part of your body, and they are keys to your body's being. And your body responds to certain chemicals, and react in mechanical ways. The sponge loses its sensation after doused with ether. And the more the sponge absorbs, the more it behaves, the more ether travels through its body. The only way to remove ether is to burn it. And try to move as less as possible."

She stopped, held her lightsaber up high and with a big grin assured him, "My Pseudon, the second you lose consciousness, I will take off your head and feed it to slaves."
