The true power of a lightsaber(Further training for Ryo-Kan)

[Count Sam]

It has been quite awhile now since the battle of Mon Calamri and Concord was over. These two battles along with what has been happening to Ryo since he joined the Jedi order were pretty hard for a Jedi to handle, but gladly Ryo was optimistic enough and had full control over his emotions. It was a thing that made him pretty much well known among his peers. However this was not the only thing he was known for. The young Jedi knight was also known for his pretty bad luck and also some people went far to say that dealing with him would bring bad fortune, but gladly Ryo was still optimistic and had a hope for a better life.

Today, Ryo made sure that he woke up early and got prepared fast to continue his training in Lightsaber combat. It was true that he was already a Knight, but still he had a long way to go and still needed to get more powerful so he could finally have the chance to protect the people he loved along with what eh believed in.

After making sure that he had everything on him. Ryo headed to the training room in which he was supposed to train, and then he knocked the door as he waited for his Master to give him the permission to get in.

The doors swung open, propelled by the force. They opened out onto a circular arena, lit around the walls by lighting strips.

Huang Karasu stood in the centre, lightsabre in hand. The Sword master had taken up the training of a select few knights to teach advanced sabre combat. In this instance, the knight Ryo-Kan was seeking training in Tràkata, the combat style Huang had created. His name was on the binding of the treatises in the archives, the master copy kept on him at all times. it sat on a lectern at the edge of the arena.

Huang had fought with Knight Kan before. He was certainly a competent knight, deserving of the training. He looked at the Knight as he entered.

''Greetings, Knight Kan. You wish to learn the art of Tràkata. I will gladly teach.'' Huang closed the doors behind Ryo, and paced the ring of the arena.

''Our weapons have a unique ability. They can be turned on or off. One minute they are there, the next, nothing. This is an invaluable tool in battle. We can break bladelock with it. We can pass an opponents attack, or their guard.'' Huang stopped.

''However, to do this, you must develop your force control to a degree you may not have thought possible, and be more acrobatic than any Ataru practicioner. Are you ready for this commitment?''

 

[Count Sam]

Ryo cleared his mind as he listened to every word his master had to say carefully. Gladly, Ryo was a good listener ever since he was a child and that helped him a lot during his training to Knighthood, and hopefully it was going to help him during his training in mastering Tràkata.

"So master the Tràkata form mainly depends on confusing the enemy, and surprising him with many blows before he even understand what's going on right?" Ryo asked as he spoke in his cold, and emotionless tone which was pretty loud and clear so that his master would hear him.

"I guess I am ready for this master....agility after all is on my most powerful weapons that I have been depending on for quite some time now" He finally finished as he waited for his master to reply.

''In the best case, Knight Kan, the blade only ignites once. For the kill.''

''However, this is rarely the case, and so yes, it can be used in the way you describe. This is the most common application of the form.''

Huang pulled a remote from his robe, pointing it at the ceiling. A series of horizontal bars and hoops descended from the ceiling, forming a difficult aerial acrobatic course.

''I want you to advance through this course, going through the hoops witout touching them.''

 

[Count Sam]

OOC: sorry for posting late I have been busy.

Ryo closed his eyes as he pulled both of his legs together taking the stance of a gymnastic player, or a Twilek dancer. After all, fitness was his specialization and gladly it seemed that the training was not going to be hard as he expected, or at least for now it was going to be fine.

Ryo then closed his eyes as he started to draw the force around him, and as he started sense his surroundings much better. Quickly and without further warning Ryo started to move using force speed. He then mixed it with force jump as he started to path through the hoops, and bars without touching them. After every hoop he passed he landed with both of his legs closed together just like a Twilek dancer.

However when Ryo was jumping through the last hoop he started to get vision of his previous battles and his dead friends which caused him to trip and fall down touching the hoop in the process.

"I...I am sorry master I guess I need to concentrate much more" Ryo said in a disappointed tone as he looked at Haung.

''Yes, knight Kan. Again. Propel yourself using the bars, through the hoops, without touching the sides of the hoops.''

Huang raised the course, so the bars and hoops hung twenty feet from the ground.
