Training Of ''Raxus Pesanka''

[Carud Aaray]

Raxus Pesanka Dressed In his training That included His Grey Bomber jacket,His Black leather boots,His Black tython pants and last but not least His Green Crystaled Training saber,He.Stood still folding his Arms looking out the Window of a training room On level 4 ,At the Wonders of coruscant.

Today,He was getting his Master He only knew her Name Which was Siri Firestorm But nothing of her background, He was prepared He studied almost every book you can think of for this Day,Nothing else stood on his mind.

He needed this training,He had visions of him and his Brother Having A Ultimate Showdown.He had to be prepared for that Day of fate.The Door that stood 15 feet away from Him Would shoot open suddenly,He would turn around and bow Even Before Seeing her.

 

[Malon]

Siri, dressed in her flowing brown Jedi robes, with a tunic underneath, burst into the room. Burst meaning she tripped just outside the door and fell into the door itself, knocking it open. Even in her position as a Jedi Master, she was still the klutz she had always been ever since she was a Youngling. It was rather embarrassing for a Jedi Master to enter in such a way, but luckily her new apprentice was bowed when she entered, and was less likely to notice her slight 'faux pas'.

Siri gathered her thoughts, and bowed in return, out of respect for her latest apprentice. Or was it victim? Knowing her clumsiness, it was most likely the latter. She shook her head of such distracting thoughts. It mattered not.

"Good day to you, Raxus Pesanka. I am Jedi Master Siri Firestorm. You may call me Master Firestorm, Master Siri, or simply Siri. It matters not to me. Under my guidance and tutelage you will learn the ways of the Jedi. Master Huang has informed me of the training you went through under him, but, for the sake of your education, we are going to review."

She cleared her throat and continued.

"Raxus, please recite for me the Jedi Code and what it means to you, personally."

 

[Carud Aaray]

He,Nodded to Her He walked Forward to her stopping 6 feet from where she stood''Nice to meet you Master Siri''He listened to her words carefully Even giving a nod here and there,Last time He failed saying it right to Master Huang But this time He would get it.
Emotion, yet peace
Ignorance, yet knowledge
Passion, yet serenity
Chaos, yet harmony
Death, yet the force.

He cleared His throat after Speaking those Words,He looked straight at her with no Hesitation''These words to me mean,Whatever Can Planted can Die yet Be replanted by the Same hier''those words came deep from his heart as he hoped she Would understand him,As he looked down at his chest then back to her.

 

[Malon]

What can be planted, can die, yet be replanted...

Siri pondered the words of her new Padawan learner very carefully. No matter how she sliced it, she didn't understand how that correlated to the Jedi Code. Instead of barking at him, or criticizing him, however, she decided to go and tell him directly what it meant.

"The Jedi Code is a standard by which the Jedi Knights of our Order live. All beings possess emotions, even Jedi, but is how one deals with them that defines that person. A Jedi must always have peace in their minds and hearts, even when their emotions would have them lash out. One person can never completely avoid ignorance. I am a Jedi Master, considered very wise for my young age, yet I will not confess to knowing everything, nor shall I ever. Despite this, a Jedi must never stop seeking learning. Even as a Knight I continued my training, under Master Huang and other various masters and even today, I continue to seek knowledge above ignorance.

"Passion is what I like to call "in the heat of the moment", which I think fits perfectly within this tenet. In a moment when you are consumed by your passion, to kill, to face someone in battle, to act in an instant, in other words, a Jedi must always have serenity; peace of mind. If a Jedi loses their peace, and gives into passion, then they risk having that passion consume them and falling to the dark side of the Force.

"The Universe is filled with chaos. In those moments, a Jedi must not be caught up into things and "go with the flow". A Jedi must always strive to maintain harmony within themselves and in others around them. Finally, as Jedi we must remember that death is never the end of anything. Never grieve for those who have 'died', as they are then transformed into the Force. Death is only a beginning, some might say."

She paused for a moment, allowing everything to sink in.

"Do you understand? Do you have any questions about what I have just taught you?"

 

[Carud Aaray]

He,Forgot what He just had said As He would begin to listen to her speech,His Ears filled with the Wise Words,This must be a really expierenced jedi He thought to Himself''.

As she Finished Her Speech He lowered His arms to his side's Replying to Her Question"Yes,Master I understand''He looked to her Quirking his right eyebrow''. Death is only a beginning,''He spoke out as this Phrase Could keep him Striving Forward

 

[Malon]

Siri nodded, taking that as her cue to continue. She took several strides across the room and placed her hands behind her back, in a thoughtful manner.

"The meaning of the Jedi Code is not something that can be grasped simply by hearing my words. It is something that must be experienced. I fully intend to make you experienced in it by the time our training together ends." she declared.

Siri moved over to the view-panel and gazed out at Coruscant's endless cityscape for a brief few moments, albeit their silence. She then turned back to Raxus.

"Go from here and meet me in the Jedi Archives of this temple in five minutes. We shall continue our lessons there."

 

[Carud Aaray]

He watched as she made a few paces around the room,As he took in her words''She stood silent for at least five minutes after she made a Few Paces and Stared out the Window in the training Room, then turned her gaze back to Raxus Telling him to meet her in the jedi temple.

He bowed to Her before He stood up and headed out the door,He walked down the hall,Passing a few jedi as he stepped onto the Turbolift,It took him down to the lower levels as it finally came to stop,as he arrived in the jedi archives,The blue shelves Glowed a bright blue,as usual With numerous Jedi Around.He stood in the middle of the Room Awaiting Master Siri,Straighting Out his Training Gear.

 

[Malon]

Siri arrived a few moments later and beckoned her apprentice to follow her into a small, unoccupied room off the side of the Archives. The room had a large holo-table at its center, displaying what appeared to be an ongoing ground battle somewhere in the galaxy. The hologram soldiers and machines fired many blaster bolts at each other. Everywhere soldiers on both sides of the fight were falling.

"Padawan, tell me, what do you see here on this holo-table?" she asked, keeping her eyes glued to the table.

 

[Carud Aaray]

He,Followed her As she inquired into a small lightly Lit room,As he stepped inside The room had a large holo-table In the center of the room.

It looked like a battle,Of some kind of battle Going on elsewhere,There were Shots Being fired shoots being Fired,People falling people rising,She looked Forward still asking him a question,Keeping his Eyes Darted onto the Holo Table He Spoke''Warfare,Death Of people that is pointless,maybe can be avoided,But death is only the beginning of trully understanding,He still kept his gaze on the table.

 

[Malon]

Siri briefly glanced over to her apprentice before returning her gaze to the table.

"Yes. This is war and death. And yes, they could have been avoided if things had been different. How does seeing war and death make you feel inside, Raxus? Be honest in your answer." she said.

 

[Carud Aaray]

He looked to the Table then To his master, then Resting his Hands onto the table And replied With the best answer He could think of''It Makes me feel like,I should Be there To help and Bring justice,''Create peace Give Peace It makes Me hurt I lost My parents To Evil,And I require To end Evil As the Force is on my Side,He paused''The Light Side.

 

[Malon]

Siri unglued her eyes from the holo-table and folded her arms, now aiming her attention towards her Padawan learner.

"Consider this your first lesson with me as your teacher, Raxus. Emotion, yet peace. A Jedi's job isn't to bring 'justice' to anyone. A Jedi's job isn't to create or give peace. It is to maintain peace. I understand the pain you feel in your heart, but a Jedi must always have peace in their heart, otherwise keeping the peace is an impossibility. Always remember that." Siri declared.

She paused a moment to let this sink in.

"Do you understand what I have told you? Do you have anything to say or ask about what you have learned here?"

 

[Carud Aaray]

He,Felt not bad But finally Told wrong He actually liked it.He listened strongly to His master not missing one single word.Emotion yet peace,He began to Understand,he would not let that Emotion Effect him.

''Yes,Master I Understand''He spoke clearly unfolding his Arms to his side,Staring her Into the Eyes turning his head just a little to meet her's''No,Master I Have nothing to ask''He wanted to keep everything stored in his mind by not Asking Question's,He Would soon learn it through actions.

 

[Malon]

With that, Siri moved on to the next lesson.

"Now then, tell me, Raxus. What do you know of the Force? What can you preform when you call upon it for help?" Siri asked, taking a seat in a nearby chair.

 

[Carud Aaray]

As his Master would speak and Sit into an Nearby Chair,He lowered himself Crossing his legs''Looking to his Master As He prepared His Answer''The Force is a binding,metaphysical and ubiquitous power.''The Force can enhance natural physical and mental abilities, including strength such as during a "Force jump" or to slow a fall from an otherwise dangerous height and accuracy....

''When you reach out and Call upon it,His Eyes never left his Master's Site Hoping It was A good answer.

 

[Malon]

"The Force is an energy field that binds us all together. It binds us to all life across the galaxy, so you are correct. If what you have told me is true, than you can use some applications of the Force." she said.

Siri reached into her robes and pulled out a small golden ball, holding it out in front of Raxus with an open palm.

"Show me telekinesis, then, if you please."

 

[Carud Aaray]

As,He had been practicing cleaning his room with the Force,He smiled at his Master,As she inquired him To use telekenisis to move the Small golden Ball out of her Hands,He breathed in and out.

He,held out his right hand Concentrating, fingers extended towards the ball,It began to move then slowly Floating out of her hand, Above the Palm Of Master Siri.

 

[Malon]

Siri observed Raxus levitate the ball directly above her palm and nodded in approval.

"Good work, apprentice." she said simply, drawing her robes back and retrieving an entire container of golden balls; the items numbering about twenty. "However, one ball is too easy. Twenty are much more difficult to maintain at once. My job, as your Master, is to challenge you. Please use telekinesis on all of these to make them rotate around you in a circle. Do not loose focus, or you will drop them."

She then set the container of golden balls down on the floor so that Raxus could access them.

 

[Carud Aaray]

The ball would lower back into the Hand of his master,A look of concern shot in the Face Of Raxus,But he Would stay Focused.He had To he Promise himself,To be A jedi,.

He,bowed to his Master's Words,and to begin his Next Task,The Container Of golden Balls,Seemed to his Eyes A milllion,But he Would Try.

He closed His eyes,He,Focused He breathed,He Stood,And He began.He could feel the golden Ball's,He was them,He could feel There touch,there material,Ten Golden,Balls would begin to float,He had to Keep Focus,The moved towards him slowly,''Focus''.

They Swirled around him slowly,now his hands were Extended outwards from his side,his wrist bended,It felt great,He connected with the Golden Balls,Like they were him.Five more Began to join the Bunch,But He had to Focus and not let happiness, not get in the Way.

 

[Malon]

Siri circled him silently, observing him both outwardly and through the Force for any indications that he was having trouble. Raxus was levitating them, but Siri noticed that they would wobble every couple of seconds before regaining their course. This was a result of his lack of control.

"Remember the words of the Code, Raxus. Emotion, yet peace. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. You're not a peace, serenity, or harmony. You're afraid of the task I have given you. For you, you fear it is too difficult, and so you allow emotion to take the place of peace, passion in the place of serenity, and chaos in the place of harmony. This is not how it should be.

"Let go of your fear. Let peace take its place. Only then will the Force answer your call to its fullest." she instructed.
