"Get this stench of her, feed her and clothe her. She is not to hurt or mistreat in any way if you want to keep your head, understood?"

Hearing Lynn give orders gave Aeryun shivers. She was so cold and demanding. It was kind of scary, especially if you were on the receiving end of those work ds. But then the words clicked together in her head like puzzle pieces. Lynn was... Being courteous? Did she hear that right? Why would a Sith, a being of pure evil and rage, want to concern herself with Aeryun's needs. It didn't make sense.

The guards gathered around her and began to walk her into the facility. Aeryun put up no resistance. She wasn't here by force, she had chosen this fate. That being said, it didn't stop her from taking in every detail of the place on her walk. She counted the steps. She felt the people around her with her intuition. She listened for the echoes against the walls to understand how wide and tall they were.

When they got to the showers things got a little more complicated. It would be... difficult to get her undressed with the cuffs, but she allowed them to hold her arms while they slide the flight suit off her. She was wearing her bra and underwear, so that didn't bother her too much. Plus, she was young and just starting to fill in. There wasn't much of a show but it still made her feel really uncomfortable. She could almost hear their hearts racing in the presence of an almost nude chick. She refused to take off the clothes and they'd have to hose her down with them on.

Sobbing wet, she attempted to dry herself off with the cuffs. It was difficult, and thankfully one of them was nice enough to offer. She at first declined him, but felt it easier to get it over with. Once mostly dry, they slipped her a clean pair of spare clothes and she put them on. Once clothed, she wiggled her way out of the bra and underwear where no one would see her. She left them behind and walked commando back to her new cell. Odly enough, Aeryun felt rather free without them.

She was grateful to eat. Very grateful. She'd been out in that forest for almost a week and had to resort to finding her own food. Luckily she always kept a few protein bars in her belt, but they didn't last long. Taruna would have to teach her how to fuel one's body when food wasn't available. She had learned how to use the Force to prevent herself from getting too cold or hot, but food had never come up.

The cell was small, but it fit her just fine. Her room back in her ship was about as wide as this room anyway, if you considered the desk/closet not part of the space. Her room only had so much space to walk around so this really wasn't a problem. What did bother her though was the air. It felt hot and humid and Aeryun occasionally felt like she was running short or breath. That was the worst of it. Yet, out of all the negative facts, Aeryun was glad, in one of the few times in her life, to have been blind. They could throw her in a dark pit and she'd never know the difference. Eventually they even came to give her back her suit and under garments. This, again, would lead to another awkward exchange of clothes.

When all was said and done, Aeryun curled up against the wall on her bed and clutched the saber to her chest. The metal hilt made her feel secure and safe. She made the unfortunate mistake of trying to use the Force to disassemble the saber, which she often did as a hobby, and cried out when they shocked her. It should have been obvious they'd take away her Force powers. Realizing she lost the one thing that made her a Jedi, Aeryun slowly let herself go and began to weep.

No sleep came to her that night. How could she? Even though she was exhausted and worn out physically and mentally, she just couldn't find peace. The room was too hot, the place too quiet, and the cuffs quickly became an object of loathing. She kept trying to fidget and get comfortable in the bed but her arms were stuck together. She hated this feeling. So I'm between bouts of tears and sadness, she would hold onto the saber like it was the one thing that still held her sanity.

The next morning, the door would shake and Aeryun jumped in surprise. She sat up and tucked the saber ad tightly to herself as she could. As the floor and bed began to hum with electricity, Aeryun felt her messy hair start to stand on end. The shock didn't bother her, but it did give her the shivers.

"Get up and ready, Kiddo. Your interrogation is waiting."

It was time. Aeryun wasn't ready. She waited until the floor stopped and would get up to await what came for her next. When Lynn opened the door, she'd see a very tired Noorian with one hell of a case of bed head. Still, holding onto the saber for dear life, she looked like a sad little puppy who had been left alone too long.

Aeryun wanted to tell Lynn that she was ready, but that would have been a lie. How could someone say they were ready to be tortured? Part of her wanted to have a freak out and let herself get killed in the process. She wouldn't, but it did cross her mind.

It was a rather nauseating thing to look at the captive as the sorry thing slowly came out of her cell. But at least she would not be able to see the rings below the Sith's eyes as she had spent the night about what to do with the girl. She was too young. And not really a challenge. And for sure not a real Jedi yet.

She had spend the most of the night thinking about how to torture her, but that brought no enjoyable ideas. So she went for a game.

Taking out her blaster, she used it to poke her in the desired directions, not saying a word and maintaining an aura of someone who just waited for a wrong move. She only stopped that when they reached the open backyard which was surrounded by large turret, filled with snipers and a delegation waiting for her.

Aeryun would feel that there were twenty people in two rows, the back row being imperial soldiers holding blaster pistols and the front rear being citizens of the Colony. Lynn did not even look at them, since they all knew what they would have to do.

Stopping the poking when Aeryun was at the desired spot, she unshackled her and put one of her lightsabers into the girl's hand. Then ignited her other.

"Fight me"

Aeryun was led out of the cell and walked calmly to wherever she was being taken too. She didn't appreciate being pushed along by gunpoint, but she wouldn't say anything. They had told her to leave her saber behind, and Aeryun hesitantly complied. They were taking her weapon from her, not that it was a weapon any more. Yet, somehow, this assured her of something. If they were going to kill her, why would they bother letting her keep the saber anyway? Somehow, she knew she'd be coming back to the cell.

When they reached the outside, Aeryun couldn't be happier. The fresh air ran across her hair and she felt like she could finally breathe again. She didn't realize how much she missed the outside until now. Sure she'd been on spaceships for months at a time, but at least the air was kept in check.

As they moved further outside Aeryun could feel the crowd. There was fear. Lots of it. She could sense the colonists' dread and somehow... hatred? of her. What was going on? What was Lynn planning?

Aeryun let Lynn remove the cuffs, and then she rubbed her wrists where they'd dug into her skin. They felt so strange having them off now. Lynn then handed her the foreign saber and heard Lynn's saber activate.

"Fight me"

What? Was this some kind of joke? Aeryun didn't react. She didn't know how to respond. Was this because they never got their fight yesterday? Because Aeryun just surrendered.

"What are you trying to do?" she would ask.

"Proving a point" the Sith answered, nodding at the group lined up on the other side of the wire mesh fence and the first of them to the right did not even flinch when he shot the old man kneeing in front of him in the head. There would be no big commotion, since every single one of them was chained to the floor. "Hesitation is death" she explained, directly followed by "There is no Peace; Therein lies only passion. Say it aloud and attack me already."

"Proving a point"

Aeryun heard the blaster fire and she felt a hole open in her chest. A loud thud followed as the man's corpse fell limp to the ground. His life force left his body and Aeryun felt him give his dying breath. She'd killed him. Just like that. Lynn killed some random man just because Aeryun wouldn't fight. Not even because of that. She had no good reason.

"Hesitation is death... There is no Peace; Therein lies only passion. Say it aloud and attack me already."

"Wait... Please," Aeryun begged as she looked to where the crowd was then back to Lynn. She raised her free hand in a stopping motion. "I'll fight you. Please. Just let them go. You don't need to involve them."

Another nod, another death "Not what I wanted to hear. You're running out of people pretty soon, kiddo

Lynn remained in her ready-position. It would be a little harder with only one sword, but she trained this scenario also. There was just hoping the Jedi would some time react before more needless death occurred. Lynn did not like that. At all.

Aeryun's heart skipped another beat as the shot was fired. Another body dropped. Another death, her fault.

"Not what I wanted to hear. You're running out of people pretty soon, kiddo"


Aeryun looked to the people still left, she could still feel their fear of dying. Yet, now more and more of them were turning against her. She could feel their eyes baring her down with hatred for the Jedi. They weren't dying because of something they'd done. They were being killed because of Aeryun.


Without skipping another beat she gripped the slightly curved hilt in her hand, letting the foreign dark saber expand from the base. She couldn't let this go on anything longer. She charged Lynn by jumping at her, swinging her saber downward. She wasn't trying to kill her, though naturally the blow would do so if Lynn did nothing. Lightsaber were dangerous weapons after all. Aeryun would then carefully start attacking Lynn, but she was drawing out her attacks. It would be quite obvious she wasn't giving it her all nor was she really trying to kill the Sith girl.

"No, no, no, no, NO" the young Sith raised her voice with every word a little more. Her brows furrowed and her nose wrinkled, the mouth corners going down considerably.

This girl did not understand. Not at all. While the padawan was still in the air, Lynn used her hatred for the Jedi and disappointment in this particular one to create a surprisingly strong push. A push right downwards like Aeryun was a fly hit by a flyswatter, stopping her advancement and her jump in one go by sending her straight towards the floor "There is no Peace; Therein lies only passion. SAY IT"

The push would hit Aeryun like a rock that fell from the sky. She barely had time to react, but since she was in the air there was no blocking this attack. She felt Lynn use the Force but hadn't expected it to come from above. She crashed painfully into the ground and the breath was taken from her. Her hand slipped from the saber and the beam went o it. She groaned as she tried to gather herself and climb back up to her knees.

"There is no Peace; Therein lies only passion. SAY IT"

"What do you want from me?" she would groan. She looked toward Lynn from her pitiful position on the floor. She hated looking up to her, or rather felt that she was below her. Aeryun now got up to her feet and ignited the same once more. It was her weapon against the evil Sith who was, in some small way, trying to corrupt the young Jedi. But she would not fall. She would not give into this girl.

The Sith returned to her ready position after clashing the padawan to the ground, not making a move to attack herself. It would not even need the Force to feel the very warm waves of hatred and disappointment rushing over the padawan

"All I required from you was to repeat it. And now, your stupid stubbornness kost another life."

Two nods into their direction, and two others, a middle aged man and woman both where no longer. The next in line now screamed out of the top of her lungs, mourning the loss of her parents, unable to keep calm anymore and overwhelmed with grief.

"'There is no Peace; Therein lies only passion.' How many people need to die before I hear that from you?" her voice got a mocking tone as she added "Do I need to drag forth more of them? Because there's certainly a lot."

"All I required from you was to repeat it. And now, your stupid stubbornness kost another life."

Once again Aeryun would feel the sudden emptiness as two more lives were taken so abruptly. But this time there was no silence. Not only was the child screaming, but now Aeryun had something to say. She screamed in an angry, "No!" to Lynn as she dropped to her knees. She couldn't believe this was happening. Four lives now. Four more dead bodies because of her.

"'There is no Peace; Therein lies only passion.' How many people need to die before I hear that from you?...Do I need to drag forth more of them? Because there's certainly a lot."

Aeryun began to cry silently. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she sat there hearing the realization that she was killing these people. She deactivated the saber and was tempted to drop it in the grass next to her. Finally she submitted and would respond, "There is no Peace. Therein lies only passion." It was just a phrase, right? It's not like she really believed it. If this crazy psychotic chick wanted to hear her say it then she'd say it. "Please....let them go."

There we go. Desperation. A good first step.

Looking at the guard and shaking her head, the girl was immediately unchained and brought away. Kicking and screaming, declaring her hatred and death threads with so high pitched voice that it was barely understandable but since she threatened the 'dark haired monster' she could not mean Lynn.

Looking down at the Norrian, she now spoke with a soft voice, giving the impression of actually caring for her "See? That was not that bad, wasn't it. Just some words. So.. if you want the rest to survive, all you need to do is repeat what I tell you to say and.. defeat me."

It was getting boring for her, waiting for the Norrian to make a step so the Sith made one quick step ahead and lashed out, aiming her Lightsaber tip at the girl's shoulder. The effect, if it would hit, would be that the Padawan would realize these Lightsabers were on training mode. Nevertheless, she would as quickly step back to avoid any incoming attacks "Fight for their lives. That's what you Jedi are supposed to do, right? And let me hear the following: Through my Passion is borne my Strength. Show me your Jedi can have passion!"

Hearing the swearing and the cursing made Aeryun's heart sink. She felt so empty inside and hearing the girl call her a monster made her whimper. "No...I'm supposed to be the Good Guy," she thought to herself. "You've got it all wrong." But she couldn't say anything. How could she? She'd just killed four people. As much as she wanted to deny that responsibility, the overall truth was that she was ultimately to blame for their deaths.

"See? That was not that bad, wasn't it. Just some words. So.. if you want the rest to survive, all you need to do is repeat what I tell you to say and.. defeat me."

For a second Aeryun was ready to give in. She couldn't take feeling another death or the ridicule of having them hate her even more for it. But then Lynn lashed out with her saber and Aeryun's body reacted for her. She felt the danger and brought the saber up just in time to block the strike as the beam formed from the hilt.

"Fight for their lives. That's what you Jedi are supposed to do, right? And let me hear the following: Through my Passion is borne my Strength. Show me your Jedi can have passion!"

Aeryun realized that Lynn must have been having her recite the Sith code, there really was no other explanation. It wasn't some personal motto or moral, so that had to be the code the Sith used. She'd already said the first line: There is no Peace, only passion. Well Aeryun could relate to that now. With all the pain she just felt Aeryun believed she'd never rid herself of the guilt. It wasn't exactly passion, but it certainly wasn't peace.

Lynn backed up quickly and this allowed Aeryun to get to her feet. Knowing another death would come she complied to the next line and would repeat, "Through my passion is born my strength."

She knew what this line meant. It was obvious. Lynn was trying to make Aeryun angry. And it was working. The feeling of letting loose and striking down Lynn for every death. That's what she wanted to do. But it would not take her. Aeryun was a Jedi. She reminded herself this as she moved to strike at Lynn for a second time now. This time, she'd stay grounded. She was too vulnerable in the air. She struck at Lynn with long slashes meant to get Lynn to either block or move out of the way. She'd slash diagonally, and then change direction and swing back horizontally. Aeryun would then spin around and swing another horizontal slash from her left to her right, aiming at Lynn's legs. She'd hoped to confuse Lynn to where she'd block too high.

A grin worked it's way over the Sith's face. Finally the girl seemed to understand.

Taking a step to the left, she avoided the diagonal slash, then blocked the second with her own. As the girl turned around, she understood that the other girl finally was about to mean it. Long enough it took her, after all. But she was still fresh in training, forgetting to make sure your back is not in the direction of the enemy too long. When Aeryun's face would be in Lynn's direction, it would meet with the elbow of the Sith who used her Force imbued speed to close in faster then most mortals realize. The meeting of Face and elbow would be quite hard so, as Lynn was facilitating the Padawan's own momentum. She was now also too close to be hit by the Lightsaber and even if she would simply take the bruise. "Through Strength, I unleash my Power. That's the next one. Do they make sense to you, Jedi?"

As Aeryun had spun in normal speed, her face connected with Lynn's elbow and she recoiled like she'd been slapped in the face. She stumbled back and gripped her face with her hand, she could not only feel the blood coming from her nose but she could smell it. She could taste it.

"
Through Strength, I unleash my Power. That's the next one. Do they make sense to you, Jedi?"

Aeryun spit to her left, getting the metallic blood out of her mouth. She couldn't believe she'd fallen for such a simple strike. It was her own fault really. She wasn't moving at her higher, more Force-imbued speeds. Lynn had taken hers up to the next level and if this fight were to continue then she'd have to reciprocate. Sooner or later, one of them would get seriously hurt.

Spitting a second time as she wiped the blood off her lips she'd repeat the line. "Through strength I
unleash my power. Fine. I get it. You're strong when you use your emotions." It was a lie. Aeryun, who could recite the Jedi code in her sleep, knew that only true peace could give one power. The Light side was stronger and she was a wielder of the Light.

"Not just any emotions. Aggressive ones for aggressive moves, poisonous ones for poisonous moves. fight fire with fire. Jedi failed in this, since they refuse to accept the Force as what it is. The most potent one. It does not give you strength by hope, but desperation." she made a quick lunge ahead to lash at the Jedi, easy to deflect block or evade, but keeping her in movement, her blood in flushes "Next: Through Power, Victory is mine"

Aeryun listened to Lynn try to explain the different emotions. Each one fuel for an attack. Each a gateway to a different power. The Dark side, it seemed, relied completely on feelings. Previously, she had believed in the Dark powers simply being fueled by hate and rage. But...maybe there was something else to it?

"Next: Through Power, Victory is mine"

As Lynn charged at her, Aeryun reacted quickly and blocked sideways. She followed through with her attack and spun in a circle to her left. Her elbow cocked, she jammed it into Lynn's chest which would knock her back a foot or two. She'd then extend her arm and strike Lynn in her left shoulder.

"Through power, victory will be mine," she said in her mind and then aloud once she'd made the first strike. "Yes. Only my power will defeat her."

Although using her emotions was mostly frowned upon by the Jedi, the bad and dark ones at least, she understood the difference. She could understand why a Sith would choose to use every advantage they could to get the job done. Maybe, just maybe....

Aeryun jumped back to make sure Lynn couldn't strike back, but then she charged right back in. She began to use her speed, showing her example of what her Padawan friend, Taruna, had shown her. Her speed was meant to take time, not distance. It was hard to grasp at first, but maybe it would be enough to get the upper hand against the Dark female.

Lynn made a step back and twisted her back to create a backward movement that took away most of the attacking stab to her shoulder and laughed a short moment until the Padawan got

cocky and tried a follow up attack. Good, the girl found out the Lightsabers are on Training mode, but this speedup was still powered by more of the light side then anything else.

So she decided that it was time to show the superiority of the dark side by extending her lightsaber forward and deflect the blade upwards, using a speed matching those of the Padawan. then, she used her free hand to hold it towards Aeryun and move her fingers into a claw formation, raising the padawan with a certain telekinetic trick ... on her neck. Raising her a little so her toes would not be able to touch the floor, she also brought her back into a distance she could not hit Lynn "You are able to echo, but not listen, apparently. Because the think you should get into your head is coincidentally the next line.. Through Victory, my Shackles are Broken. Did you even receive any kind of proper training, by the way?"

With a thud, Aeryun felt the saber in her hand strike Lynn's shoulder and then bounce off. The sudden realization hit her. Of course Lynn would put the sabers on training more. Well, she couldn't say that for sure. Hers, at least, was in a non lethal setting. It would make sense that Lynn would not hand a deadly dangerous weapon in Aeryun's hands.

Lynn then blocked Aeryun's attack and before she could react, Lynn used the Force to grab Aeryun around the neck. Aeryun felt the connection to the Force; the Dark side sending a horrible chill through her body.

Her throat was tight; she couldn't breathe. Her free hand went to her throat as if she could rip the invisible hand from her neck. But then Lynn grabbed hold and lifted her into the air. Suddenly Aeryun was reacting on instinct. Her body began to work without her. She dropped the borrowed saber and clawed at her neck trying to free herself. There was no air in her lungs and she couldn't even cough out of reflex. The feeling was horrible. For the first time in her life she believed she was dying.

Aeryun didn't know how to react. There was no thought. There was just pain and suffering. Her eyes were leaking tears and her feet kicked at the ground trying to find some support.

"You are able to echo, but not listen, apparently. Because the thing you should get into your head is coincidentally the next line.. Through Victory, my Shackles are Broken. Did you even receive any kind of proper training, by the way?"

As Lynn waited for a response from her, Aeryun gave the most pleading look she could muster. This was the moment. She would give in. She didn't realize how easily she'd beg for her own life. But now, she didn't want to die. She wanted the pain to end. Her eyes begged Lynn to release her.

The moment the grip was gone, Aeryun fell to the ground for a third time now and coughed several times. She was still crying and through the hoarse coughing were small moans of fear. When she finally got a hold of herself she tried to speak.

"Please," she'd cough a few more times as her throat burned from trying to speak. "I'm sorry." She coughed a few more times. She then recited the next lines because she knew Lynn would ask it, "Through victory my shackles are broken."

This line would mean the most to her of the others so far. She understood. If she could defeat her enemies then she would be free of them. She'd be free from people trying to control her. She'd be free from the limitations others set on her. All she had to do was want to break them. All she had to do was want the victory. And right now she did. She did want it. This pain and humiliation she was feeling, it was because of her lack of training. There were no Jedi to train her. It wasn't their fault, in so many ways, but there simply wasn't enough man power. So many times she wished she could have had bettter training. Mary Kay wouldn't have died. Anthony wouldn't have turned dark. Jaleer could get the help he needed. Taruna wouldn't have been shot. The list went on. Had she been a better Jedi...no. Had she had more power. Aeryun could have changed so much.

Lynn could see it in the Padawan's eyes. The glimmer of understanding. She was processing what happened and took the 'right' conclusions.

So it was time to wrap this up. She tossed the handcuffs before the Norrian's feet and stretched out her hand. "Give back my Lightsaber. Your lesson is over" she spoke in her usual arrogant, but now just a tad softer voice.
