A Change Of Heart

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen had been in a fight with her father for the past hour. He was upset to find her one night, not in her room. He had found out that she had been with the Jedi Order after all of this time. Gwen argued that she had been wanting to be in the Jedi Order for some time and that she decided to do it on her own so she could prove something to him, that she could stand up for herself. He had told her that she was incapable of herself and that she couldn't protect herself because she was royalty. She got upset and then grabbed her sabers and blasters and took off in a Corellian shuttle to the planet Tython. Once she reached the atmosphere of the planet, she lost control of the ship and crash landed it in a nearby forest.

About a few minutes later Gwen woke up and exited the crashed shuttle. She looked around confused. She was confused of why she was in a forest and not at the space port. Or home. Gwen couldn't remember what happened up until the crash. She remembered arguing with her father and then leaving and crashing the ship in the forest. That's all she could remember. About an hour of wandering from the her crash site, Gwen appeared into a clearing and the sun shone in her fire red hair. She looked around in amazement of the beautiful area in the clearing of the forest. Then she heard a loud bang that made her jump. A ship crashed just behind the trees that stood behind her. She looked at the smoking ship more closely. It was an Imperial shuttle. She knew what this ship was, but she was a Jedi. She had to help. Gwen ran over and opened the door checking inside for a survivor.

@Professor Crazy
"Hello? Is anybody in here? Are you ok?"

 

[Professor Crazy]

First my father... Then my brothers as well? They betrayed my trust! How many times must I tell them, a Sith does not need to meaninglessly kill to.. Well, be Sith! How many times have I debated with them, tried to reason or compromise... How many times... They have forced my hand... They made me do this... It is for the best, I assume...

Clow Azere, a Sith Acolyte, about to begin his training, stood calmly in front of the cabin window. The shuttle was cold, freezing, even! Even more so for someone raised in constant heat! He watched as they passed a most horrifying sight! A desolate, all but destroyed planet, devoid of all life... Before, Tython was a wonderland, filled to the brim with forests, mountains and wildlife! Heavy noxious clouds floated about in its polluted atmosphere. Such a terrible sight! Clow worshiped all life, even that of his enemies. The destruction of this planet was just a shame. It may seem strange, no? A Sith? Admiring the beauty of life? Rather unusual indeed, but not unheard of! One of the most well-known Sith Lords in the Galaxy, Dark Lord of the Sith, Revan, was both Jedi and Sith. There is no shame in admiring life in its full beauty... Clow formed a smile beneath the bright red mask resting upon his ravaged face. "I am not like them..."

A strange feeling invaded his thought, right then and there. A... Vision of sorts... It was a bad feeling, a very bad feeling indeed. Something was about to happen, and it wasn't going to be anything good! His perception did not lie.

"My Lord! We're experiencing total engine failure! We're going down!" The Shuttle Pilot exclaimed, fear hidden away behind his voice!

Minutes passed like hours! The Acolyte desperately held on for his very life, while the pilots desperately tried to find the source of the failure! Is this it...? Would he die like this? In a petty shuttle crash? That is not a death worthy of a Sith!

"HQ... We're... We're experiencing total engine failure over the planet Tython... We cannot resolve the issue... Just... Send someone to find our remains... Long live the Empire!" The pilot quietly spoke, voice trembling with pure horror.

The shuttle grew hot as it entered Tython's atmosphere at extremely high speeds! It was like a meteor, heading straight for the ground! If they weren't boiled alive now, the collision would surely destroy them. Clow held on, and suddenly... A strange feeling of strength engulfed him. For a moment, he felt... Safe. The vessel reached terminal velocity, plunging straight into the ground, blazing like a meteor! ...Everything went dark...

"What... Where... Did I die...? Surely not..." The Acolyte awoke amidst the rubble, smelling the ashes... He was unscathed. Not a scratch! "How..? That fall, it should have killed me, surely!" How could one survive a disastrous event such as this? Possibly luck, or maybe different powers were playing their part... He looked around, before gazing up directly above him. The sky was filled with smoke, but even more strange was the fact that there was another person standing around the whole time!

Clow did not trust this individual, and how could he be blamed? Trust leads to betrayal, betrayal leads to anger, and uncontrolled anger leads to defeat! He quickly scanned the red-haired woman, before noticing it, a saber... The Acolyte, failing to locate his weapon of choice (the pike), drew his secondary blade. He whipped up on his feet, and held the red saber in a defensive stance, though rather clumsily.

"You're... Jedi, aren't you!? You saw the crash, and you came to kill me! Didn't you?! I am not going down this easily! I am Sith! And I will not die to a petty Jedi Knight! I was... I was trained! I know every saber form there... There is! So... Stay back! Sta-- Stay back... Or... Or else!" His voice was muffled by the sturdy helmet.

Clow desperately tried to deceive his opponent, but being disoriented and unable to concentrate, it surely would not work. Behind his intimidating words stood not-so-intimidating emotions. Fear was the only thing on his mind. Fear...

 

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen looked through the smoke at the person who was trying to defend himself. She shook her head, rolling her eyes the very slightest and gave a small giggle. "Well Sith, you are right, I am a Jedi. I did see the crash, but I have no intentions on killing you unless you strike first. And really, dude, relax, I sense your fear. Remember fear is your worst enemy when it comes to Jedi." she said smirking at him.

She put her hand out to try to help him out, while her other hand was on one of her lightsabers. She kept her hand on her saber because she didn't know what he could actually be capable of.

"As long as you don't try anything these," she said patting her hand on her one saber. "won't come to life. But I'm up for battle if you don't trust me."

 

[Professor Crazy]

Clow settled down. It was pointless, either he'd get out of here alive with the help of a Jedi, or he'd die to her blade. Neither were particularly good scenarios, though the former sounded a bit more forgiving. He looked up at the Jedi, blade resting in his trembling hands.

"I don't trust you... I trust no one. If I sheathe my weapon, I could die, but what choice do I have? I am a mere Acolyte, I cannot defeat a Jedi! Either I die or I live. I intend to live long enough to see Korriban with my own eyes. As I said, I have no choice. I submit. So be it." The beam of light disappeared with the wheezing sound of the ages-old power supply.

"Well then..." He said, carefully scanning his surroundings. "I suppose that's that. I am Clow Azere, Sith Acolyte. Sith blood flows through my veins, and yet I am less Sith than any human I have seen to this day. I am on a quest for knowledge, which should set me on the right path. I wish to follow in my ancestors' footsteps, who in turn praised the teaching of a certain Revan... Would you know anything about this... Revan?" Clow curiously asked, before going off to search for his weapon. Unsurprisingly, after a few short moments, the Sith found what he sought after, stuck under a half-obliterated shuttle wing. He tugged on the blade, but it wouldn't budge.

"I am still listening! Merely... Lost my... Pike!" He exclaimed, vigorously pulling the trapped hilt from under its metal prison.

"Come on... Come on!! ....Finally!" The weapon broke free, and Clow stood back up.

"Now, where were we?"

 

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen shook her head again.

"You have no choice. You have to trust me or you would be burned up with this smoldering shuttle. If you sheathe your weapon I promise you will not die." her red curls bounced in front of her face from her hood. Once she helped him out, she pulled the hood back revealing long red curls and a natural freckled face with icy blue eyes. "So, if you want to live, stay with me. If you decide to kill me, well then you may be doomed. You may or may not know who I am. My name is Gwen Solare."

She then took in what he had said about this Revan. Gwen thought really hard. "Yes actually I have heard of this Revan you speak of. Whoever this Revan is, they or he or whoever have been trying to take me in custody. " she explained. "Maybe that's why my father has been trying to hide me all this time.." she added on quietly.

 

[Richie B.]

The matukai had come to Tython for training and meditation, the Matukai loved to train and meditate in harsh environments though this was something far harsher than anything he has experienced before. The warrior didn't realize the planet would be full of death, and was forced to rely on the force to purge the toxic air that entered his lungs. Though Triton was busy doing a meditative stance where he used one hand the still organic one to stand (imagine luke without Yoda).

That was until he heard a huge crash turning around he saw a crashed Imperium shuttle, extending his senses by using the force he could hear the faint noises coming from the area thanks to the fact that the planet being dead it was quiet enough for him to be able to hear people talking. Running with speed that no mortal can reach those there would sense a growing presence in the force a light side beacon that was of knight level.

Triton only had his Wan-Shen on him not foreseeing an need for it, though he was sure that this time he wouldn't be losing any limbs. The warrior moved with purpose and once he was upon the scene, he called out to any survivors.

"Is anyone alive?" Triton would wait for the reply, he was on the other side of the crash but the other two should hear him.

He wore his white robes clean even on the bead planet.

 

[Professor Crazy]

"What was that?" Clow caught a scent. Nothing in particular, just movement. "Probably just my mind playing tricks on me..." He answered his own question, and stabbed his weapon into the corrupted ground.

"Ah yes, promises. Promises promises promises. And when the time comes? What is that 'promise' worth? Absolutely nothing! Nevertheless, I have no reason to attack. If you wanted me dead, I would be dead." The Sith muttered, before his senses came back to full awareness! It wasn't an illusion! The threat was real! Hidden away near the crash-site!

"I knew it! I knew we weren't alone!" He exclaimed! Immediately, the Acolyte switched on the saber in his hands. With a short hiss, a meter long, red, hot beam extended itself from within the hilt! He gripped the saber-pike with both hands and stood in an offensive stance!

"...Who are you? Why do you ask? Are you here to kill me? Strip me of my heritage and sell it to the filthy Hutts?" Clow shouted across the burned woods, anger in his voice, while chaotically scanning the surrounding area. The hidden threat was nowhere to be seen! Of course, Clow was very paranoid, and quite afraid for his life. Reacting aggressively in such a situation was only natural.

 

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen had sensed it too. She sensed a familiar feel in the force. She wasn't sure if it was light or dark. She tried her best to pinpoint where this other force sensitive was.

She then scoffed at his response to her. "Well, when I promise something, I never ever break that promise. EVER." She replied firmly. Gwen was using a firm voice, but she had to, to make sure her point got across to him. "Once a Jedi is friends with someone, the trust can never be broken." She explained.

The sudden burst out from him made her jump backwards and she tripped over a rock causing her to fall backwards. She gave him a blank look as he tried hard to look big and bad, but effortlessly kinda failed. Gwen shook her head and stood up, brushing herself off. He spoke so quickly, that she knew he was feared for his life.

She walked over to him calmly, and tilted her head slightly to look at his face. "Clow, you need to relax. Your fear is strong, your confidence is hidden deep inside and you are too afraid to show it." She wasn't gonna beat around the bush. If she was going to say something, it would be straight forward and to the point.

 

[Richie B.]

Triton was confused the people of the crash site seemed to be more interested in arguing than helping themselves, hearing the two distinct voices the warrior knew he was dealing with two individuals, one male the other female. Once he heard the clear activation of a lightsaber he decided it was best to move as fast as possible or worry about having to help a injured person, so the warrior did the only thing he could do gathering the force within himself, becoming a beacon of the light side of the force, though thanks to the environment it might be hard to sense.

Triton jumped over the entire crashed ship thanks to the force helping him, doing a few summersaults over the ships, thankfully the warrior was ready for anything his Wan-Shen in his right hand ready for action. He would land and do several rolls away from the pair, turning faster than humanly possible turned facing the two, and pointing his Wan-Shen, with the blade out, at the Sith.

"Drop the Lightsaber SITH or I promise it will be the last thing you do." Triton had no love for Sith even the young ones considering he lost his arm to one of them.

Looking around he saw a young woman which seemed a lot more at easy yet she didn't have her lightsaber out, the whole situation seemed weird and the warrior wasn't going to take any risks here.

 

[Professor Crazy]

Finally, the threat had revealed its presence! It all happened faster than Clow could perceive! The jump was most magnificent, that much was for sure, but that was clearly not the main concern at this time. Before the most unusual pair of individuals now stood an even stranger character! Cloaked in white robes, with a spear in hand, held in an aggressive manner, he was quite intimidating at first sight!

The Acolyte immediately retaliated, and was now facing this new menace, pike pointed forward, ready to strike if necessary! The strange warrior's threat caught the Sith completely off guard! He couldn't catch the slightest scent of fear from behind his voice! That in itself was very worrying indeed. Clow's blood turned stone cold as he uttered his response!

"And who might you be? Another Jedi? A warrior of the light? Come to kill me?" He said in a rather condescending tone! That was the point, to provoke this warrior, lift a wave of anger within him, to throw him off balance!

"Well then... Master Jedi... It saddens me that it has come to this, but I shan't lay down my weapons, not this time..." The Acolyte slowly reached for the red mask, covering his face in its entirety, and slowly, carefully took it off, throwing it aside into the dirt.

What was revealed could only be described as a very unsettling sight. His skin was red, and features sharp, with scars and burns engulfing his cheeks, reflecting the sheer pain and misery he'd gone through. His eyes? They glow with anger, hatred, and total determination. Yet he seems particularly balanced, as if he was somehow channeling these emotions into raw power...

"Well then... Master Jedi... Prepare yourself!"

 

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen figured that this force user was a Jedi. Her ice blue eyes stayed widened. She didn't know what would happen next. She backed up slowly as she saw both weapons drawn. She kept her hands on her sabers for what came next. She sensed the definite tension between the two. Clow's tension and anger was probably the strongest.

She was at this point behind Clow and she continued to back up if he tried anything. She then saw him take off his helmet for the first time and gasped unnoticeable to Clow. Gwen then wondered what this sith was truly here for. Was he there to capture Jedi? Or was he truly there for knowledge? She was puzzled by this question. This question had puzzled her more now that she saw what was happening. Right now. Right this instant.

She felt Clow's anger burning through him and then there it was. The cold. The feeling that could be felt within every sith. She kept her eyes on him now. He seemed more intimidating without his helmet.

"Oh great. What now?"

 

[Richie B.]

Triton was not happy no bit yet he wouldn't let his anger take the better of him, steeling himself for whatever might happen, it was clear that the two were young, or at least inexperienced. Yet upon hearing if he would kill the sith, Triton was reminded that he need not kill but the option was clearly there keeping his weapon pointing at the sith he piece together what was said and tried to figure what was happening.

"I am no Jedi, Sith. I am a Matukai warrior a warrior of the light, now I suggest you drop your weapon. You are no match for me young Sith." Triton could tell if this sith was really at crusader level like his last opponent.

"Now I am assuming the young girl with you is a Jedi, listen master Jedi. I am a friend to your order, you can trust me. But if a fight does start, stay back I can handle the Sith." Triton didn't want to put anyone else at risk, and just hoped there wouldn't be a fight but it wouldn't surprise the warrior if the Sith did start a fight.

The warrior couldn't really feel, the dark side building up within the young Sith, that wasn't how he was trained, but he began build up the force within himself, just in case the sith tried anything. He wondered what would happen now, would the Sith attack him, or the Jedi? Or would the Jedi jump an attack the Sith or even him, yet even just not join which he had asked. So now it was time to play the waiting game, something Triton was never really good with.

 

[Professor Crazy]

The Sith smirked.

"Hah! And what is that? A group of fools, obsessed with the light and good deeds? Oh please! There is no peace! Peace is a lie! Or did those Light Side obsessed buffoons never teach you that?!" Clow paused, staring deep into the man's soul, with one sole intention, to provoke an unreasonable reaction!

"We live to serve, just as you do, Jedi. We serve the great Sith Empire! And in turn...? In turn, we are granted power! Power greater than you Jedi could possibly imagine!" He exclaimed, speech accompanied by a series of gestures and movements. He now smiled from cheek to cheek, head tilted very slightly to the side, as he paced from left to right.

"If you kill me, you will slip to the Dark Side... You will be engulfed by anger, hate, and passion! Your power will grow, you will become like never before!" Clow looked down his saber, radiating with heat. The red light reflected in his glowing eyes like sunlight from the sea. The Acolyte gazed up at his enemy yet again, awaiting the events to come.

"...Strike me down! Do it! And you shall feel the sheer power of the Dark Side! Kill me, and I promise you eternal strength! Unfathomable powers!" The Sith was cunning. By manipulating the warrior, he might just get out of this situation alive. He did all he could to shroud his emotions under a blanket of darkness.

"I do not desire to fight you, but if we should clash, at least the Empire will have a new, more powerful disciple!"

 

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen's eyes stayed wide as she watched the standoff. She then heard the other guy talking to her and she turned her head to look at him. Her sabers were at this point in her hands just in case the sith turned on her.

"Well, it's nice to know that someone is at least on my side. For once in a lifetime."

Gwen could hide fear well. She then looked to the sith as he started talking. She couldn't resist holding her tongue back anymore.

"Listen here sith. Peace is real and peace is no lie. And the Matukai warriors are no fools. They are skilled and can take down any sith in their way. And who are you calling a buffoon? I think the so are buffoons! At this point I think that's quite fair to offend your Order, since you offended mine!"

She said. Gwen was not holding back with what she was saying. She promised herself that she wasn't gonna hold back anything. She wasn't gonna lie, or beat around the bush. She was going to say like it is and was.

 

[Richie B.]

Triton was not surprised that the Sith was trying to get him to respond angrily but the warrior wasn't going to give the Sith the pleasure, but it did seem the Sith had been brainwashed by the twisted Ideology of the Sith.

"Young man you have been deceived, by your Sith overloads, open up your eyes kid, if you want power service to a Sith Empire that has killed TRILLONS is not the way to go. It will only cause you to die sooner, besides there are ways to fight that doesn't involve killing. Stop thinking in absolutes young man and start to open your eyes, power, goes away and leaves, peace and an the light is the only thing that will stay with you, if you truly think the darkside is such a great force than show me. Talking only goes so far let our ideas battle though our bodies." Triton would stand at his full height an slam his Wan-Shen into the ground causing it to be embedded into it.

"I can promise you that your unlimited power would be defeated by that which the light gives us, now come at me or must you hide behind empty words?" Triton challenged ready to show the Sith the truth.

"Jedi remember this is my fight and I will be the one to ends this." Triton said building up the force within him the warrior was at peace when he fights but it wasn't because of blood lust, but rather the art and beauty fighting can give.

Triton would use the technique force of will it would protect him from almost any force attack the young Sith might throw at him.

 

[Professor Crazy]

Clow turned his sights towards the girl, eyes sparkling with anger, hate, and at the same time, happiness and joy. He let out a brief, low-pitched laugh, before continuing with his speech, which would turn out to be a rather well-executed bluff... Or was it really a bluff...?

"Yes... Keep going... I can feel the passion, the anger, the hate, all brewing within you... It helps you focus!" His eyes widened, and he now gave off the essence of a twisted madman!

"Yes! Yes! Disagree with me! Fight me! Rebel! Look at what your family has done to you! Your father? You said he holds you back...?" A short, uncomfortable pause filled their surroundings with unsettling silence. "Why do you think this is? Can't you see? He is afraid of you! Afraid of the power, hidden deep within you! Fight back! Unleash your potential! Become that which invades his darkest of dreams!" The Acolyte was truly cooking on the spot, but he did fairly well, all things considered!

"The Force is strong within you... I sense it, oh yes. Much power lies hidden deep within the cracks and crevices of your mind, and yet you willingly lock it away... And the power you use? You waste it for the Jedi Order! The Jedi seek nothing but power! Control! They defeat all who stand between them and their destination! They are capable of doing anything! They are the enemy! The Empire keeps this galaxy intact, not the Jedi!" His voice was energetic, persuasive, and at the same time, oddly pleasant.

Clow extended his hand towards the young Jedi, no longer clenched in a fist, however, but with an open palm.

"Is that who you fight for? For traitors, liars, and deceivers? Think, Jedi! Think! You have been lied to this whole time! It is all a setup! They attempt to indoctrinate you into their cult! You cannot allow this! Seek reason! Seek wisdom! Seek truth! Passion is the way to power, not inner peace!" The Sith exclaimed.

"Come with me! Come with me, and I shall show you the true power of the Force! Come with me, and be free of your burdens! Fight the oppressors! Fight with us! Together, we shall destroy all injustice! All inequality! And exact revenge on those who have committed those exact things! Come with me, and see the true nature of the Force!"

"Come with me, and be free... Strike me down, and slip into the dark void with no escape... The choice lies with you, and you only."

Deception was, quite obviously, one of Clow's best, most well-developed abilities! If he could convert this Jedi to the Dark Side... It would be an achievement above all others! Suddenly, he heard the warrior's words... His gaze turned towards him, and his sight penetrated his soul once more!

"Die sooner...? No, my good friend, there your knowledge fails you... For three decades I have roamed the galaxy, for even longer, I have fought to break free of my chains, and yet, my life has not even started! And you..." His head turned towards the girl "Young Jedi... Listen carefully to the lies of this Jedi, or which ever side it is he follows... They are all the same to me."

"I do not wish to fight you, master Jedi, but if you insist..."

With a brief wheeze, the sharp beam of red light strengthened.

"I tried to find another way, warrior, but you leave me no choice. Prepare yourself!"

 

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen saw the sith turn his fiery gaze towards her. His red eyes were like fire and very intimidating. Her mind tried to trick her into fear, but she was brave and looked him straight in the eye with firmness and no fear.

She heard him trying to convince her into becoming a sith. She saw the outstretched hand and backed up the very slightest.

"No. I don't fight for liars, traitors and deceivers. I fight for freedom and justice and peace for the galaxy. The sith is none of that. The sith are the liars, traitors and deceivers. Not the Jedi. The Jedi are trustworthy." she stated.

"The Jedi have never lied to me. I have lived with them all of my life and will not give up to this point and time. I cannot bring myself to join your ranks. I'm faithful to my Order through and through. And nothing can convince me to join yours. The light will stay within me. I will live as a Jedi, I will die as a Jedi. All to keep the galaxy safe. The Empire are the liars, traitors, decievers. I will not join to become one. And my father? Leave him out of this. He has nothing to do with what is happening here and now. I sense this warrior is no liar. He hasn't lied to us once. All I sense within him is truth. He has told the truth. And the Empire has no means of freedom. The Empire is a lie! The Empire has deceived you. I have no idea how you can follow your order blindly and not notice one thing. They have betrayed you sith. And I for one, will not join the betrayed. I am free, the Jedi are the true peace keepers of this galaxy. Not the sith nor the Empire."

Yes, the force was strong with her, but she wasn't joining the sith. The warrior had seemed more trustworthy from the beginning than the sith. The sith had threatened to kill her from their first meet and now he offered her a position on his side? No way was she going to accept! She was going to live a free life, with the Jedi. If the sith saw her in their Order, who knew what would happen. She would be dead meat for them. Almost every sith in his order were sent to find and capture her. She wasn't taking it.

She kept her sabers in her hands, with her thumbs held firm to the ignition button, but it was light enough to not ignite the saber.

 

[Richie B.]

Triton had enough of this debate where no one would be able to win or end it, words had only so much effect so now it was time for the warrior to silent the fool, who seemed to be too far gone for him to save.

"So Sith I see you have been corrupted by the power of the dark side and the lies the Imperium tell themselves, for order can not be created if it most kill those that it will governor and seeing as the Imperium has nearly destroyed the mandalorians. Who were your allies and with the Empress having kill coruscant it is clear that the Sith and the Imperium are not the true protectors of the galaxy like you think. But enough of this prepare yourself you fool, for the battle that is too come." Triton spoke in a calm manner and the Sith will be surprised to see the warrior though clearly wanting to fight only channeling the light.

For the Matukai are warriors of the light and empower themselves in service of it, and now the Sith will find himself at the end of the lights wrath and will either be cleansed or destroyed to make room for the light to grow.

Triton will charge at the man with surprising speed with his entire body empowered by the force and his senses heighted the warrior would be a tough foe for the Sith. Triton as soon as he is in range will thrust his Wan-Shen into the Sith's stomach, and would wait to see the Sith's response hoping to gauge his opponent.

@Professor Crazy

 

[Professor Crazy]

The Sith tilted his head in confusion... He couldn't convince a mere Jedi Apprentice to switch sides? How was this possible? Rebels were easy to twist, but this was an entirely different tale.

"Very well then. Draw your weapon. If you are not with me... You are my enemy... It is my obligation to fight you, even if I am consumed in the heat of battle, even if I am forced to bow to your masters, even if I fall... I have no choice. This is my destiny. Neither of us can live, as long as the other remains among the breathing..."

Clow bent his knees, and pointed his pike forward, entering a defensive stance. He now faced the young Jedi. Attacking an experienced force user was an idiotic idea. This was no time for heated assault.

"You have brought this upon yourself, Jedi. I did not desire to fight. Fail to kill me, and you will die. Strike me down, and let the passion consume y--" A feeling of danger interrupted the Acolyte's sentence.

Just in time, he turned his head to the right, noticing the warrior charging towards him at full speed, sheer power pushing him onward! Clow retaliated without a second thought. He made a swift, agile step to the right (away from Gwen), just barely avoiding the savage strike, and pointed his pike downward at the warrior's feet. He now stood on his opponent's left, facing him from the side, retaining his defensive stance, ready for what would come next.

 

[Rae Anne Jarrus]

Gwen kept a firm glare at the sith. She wasn't going to fall so easily. Gwen ignited her lightsabers. The lightsaber in her left hand was blue and the other was green in her right hand. She shook her head.

"Well then. I guess I am your enemy, you had your chance. If I kill you, I will not gain any passion. I have no desire or need for passion. Even if I fail to kill you and somehow backup shows up, and you decide you want to capture me, I dont break to tell so easily." She held her lightsabers up and stood in an intricate position.

She watched as he also stood in a ready position challenging her to a battle. She smirked and looked him straight into his firey red eyes. They looked so evil and intimidating. It would definitely freak out the Padawans in the Order. She knew he was trying to scare her but it didn't phase her at all.

"Honestly. I think you started this. If I fail to kill you, there will be consequences, as in you will not kill me and I will live and get away. If I do happen to kill you, there will therefore, not be passion or a need for it." She said. She then also turned to see Triton charging at Clow. She did a half-step backwards to give the warrior space to go after the sith. She then prepared for her turn to strike.

This time, the Sith had messed with the wrong Jedi.
