...had Arek gone to train with his lightsaber on the Jedi flagsip. The Will of the Force was a beautiful ship, and he liked to be on it. But he just didn't like flying or anything of that sort. Being in space made his migraines worse than they were when he was standing up straight. And those always seemed to be the worse ones until he found out he eventually had to fly again. It was like a one-armed soldier learning he had to go back and fight in war.
Arek got into his Soresu stance and looked across the way at three little, round, flying droid things. He'd never bothered to learn their name, seeing as how he didn't use them much.
They fired a lot of shots in that first round, but they weren't nearly started. He was able to easily block them in the beginning, though his ability wore down after a good chunk of seconds was taken up without a break. When they paused he went back to his starting stance, waiting for them to begin the firing again. This time they flew in a formation and surrounded him.
Arek rolled backwards, almost losing his balance as he got back up. The droids turned, simultaenously, and opened fire again. He blocked up high and to his left and right, though catching one in the shin.
"Gah!" He yelled, angry...not so much out of pain but because he was lousy with a lightsaber. He got back into position and the droids closed in on him again. A barrage of blaster bolts came flying at him and he reflected them with his lightsaber. Too many were coming, and he was barely able to block all of them.
Eventually Arek had to begin dodging some, too, not being able to use his saber to stop all of them. One caught him in the sole of his foot, and another caught him in the side. He clutched the on on the side, holding his lightsaber. The three droids went back to their starting positions and waited.
"No wonder I'm a diplomat, even a Jawa with a wooden stick could kill me in a lightsaber duel." He said, chucking his weapon across the room and into the wall. It clunked once, and then twice when it hit the floor. It rolled a little bit and stopped, behind the droids.
