Star Wars: A differn't kind of force. (closed for lexylove)

[RidePlayer]

"Along time ago in a galaxy far far away."
The empire is at the height of its power. The jedi are either dead or the few stragglers that survive are in hiding. Desperate to keep there powers hidden. The empire spies on its citizens for any hint of the force and if it appears so do the inquisitors force trained individuals who bring someone with the force before the emperor or kill them.

It was another hot day on the planet Asmeru a midrim world with a long year of 16 months. Which also meant a particularly long hot summer. This didn't bother the empire though. Not as long as they continued to force the workers they....hired to continue to work deligintly and effectivly.


A young man aged in his early twenties worked with a welding torch on the durasteel girders that would serve as the foundation for the planets newly appointed governor. A stern woman who wanted everything perfect since she had to leave the cooshy core worlds for this mid rim hovel as she put it. The man kept working unaware that just below him a woman could sense something from him. Despite being below him the two were still well over safe heights. A flimsy cable the only thing anchoring the workers to the girder. The strong summer winds had already sent two people over the edge this month. This woman and her friend who worked diligently beside her were about to set in motion a chain of events that would shake up the galaxy.

Catalina was doing ber best to work hard for the day. Her and her friend trying to stay in good terms before making their move to leave this place. Catalina struggled with emotions and could sense the feelings of others. Worried for them as the cables didn't always hold up. It was a windy day,.meaning it was possible the cable would give out. A steong gust hits and hearing a cable snapped and a scream. Her friend failing fast from the cliff and Catalina reached out to her. But the cable slipped through her hands. Taking a deep breathe before the cable began to go towards Catalina. Gripping it as she began to pull her friend to safety.

It's like the cable obeyed her wishes and acted accordingly. Catalina had no idea what was going on but thankful her friend was okay and alive. Though the scene cause the guards to come to them as the cable snapped. Thankfully no one but the man above saw what Catalina did.

The young man did witness the accident and seeing the event that the woman had performed he paled. Knowing what it meant and what it meant for the woman. Seeing the imperial probe droid that had been overseeing the work. He knew while most of the guards didn't witness the miracle she had performed he did.

Later when the teams were given a break from there work a pair of storm troopers. Came up to Catalina one of them raising there blaster on her as the other said "don't move your to report to the governer for questioning." Catalina's ablility to sense emotions revealing the hostility in the stormtroopers words. The man witnessed this tensed would he watch someone like him be taken away.

Gritting his teeth he watched as the first storm trooper roughly grab. Catalina's arm before he acted. Leaping into the fray almost from a inhuman distance he shoved his arms out reaching out with the force for the first time in a long time. The storm troopers violently flown through the air and onto there backs. The scene causing a stir as more came to respond. He said "COME ON." Grabbing her arm as he led her away the imperial forces shouting after them as blaster bolts fired missing the pair as they ran away from the construction site. He pulled her into an abandoned building some time later after losing there pursuers. A search already underway.

 

[Lexylove13]

Thankful for a break as Catalina helped her friend to spot to sit down. Pausing a trooper taide his blaster to her as she stood in front of her friend. Hostility is what she felt from th tropper before one grabbed her arm roughly. Trying to keep me emotions in check as she knew this wasn't a fight she could win. Her eyes widen as the trooper flew back from her before someone else grabbed her arm. No chocie but to run this with guy and she wanted answers. Why would he risk both of their lives? Finally stopping in an abandoned building as she began to catch her breath.

"What..the...hell...was that for?"she asked. Sitting against the wall as she was panting. Groaning as she rested back against the wall.

 

[RidePlayer]

The man looked out the dinged window of the building for any signs of storm troopers. Feeling they were safe he turned to her and for the first time noticed her features. She was definitly a beauty. He said "I'm sorry but before I answer your question I have one of my own. What did you sense from those storm troopers just now?"

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina looked up as she was cofused by his words. "Hostility....why?"she asked. Shifting as he groaned as her muscles ached from all the work. "Why does it matter that I could sense."she said. Knowing that her life was now over if they were found.

 

[RidePlayer]

He knelt looking into her eyes. Giving her a good look at his features he said "tell me have you ever sensed anything else anything you couldn't explain. Things people wouldn't be able to tell just by looking at someone else. Things that you really shouldn't be able to know on hand?"

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina found him rather good looking but his words. How did he all this and what she could feel. "Yes...but how do you know this? Who are you?"she asked. Wanting answers and fast as she was going to be stuck with him if she wanted to survive. "Why do you care that I can sense things..."she asked.

 

[RidePlayer]

He sat down crossed legged infront of her. Like a monk or spiritulist would. He said "my name is Cain Jarrodd. I am a survivor of the jedi purge the empire created. I'm someone connected with a force. A energy in this galaxy that flows through all living beings. It gives those who master it a sense of everything around them. They can feel things/ sense things through the force. Manipulate the force to move things and move the hearts and minds of those beings connected to it. You have that power too." Letting that sink in for a moment he said "those troopes were after you cause the emperor orchestrated the hunt and slaughter of my fellow jedi when I was only thirteen at the end of the clone wars ten years ago. A probe droid watching us work saw what you did. Your connection to the force is strong without any kind of training you saved your friend. I'm not the only one who realized that. The empire will hunt you down now for what you have. Try to use you as a weapon for them or...." trailing off he said "and now that I helped you they know about me as well."

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina was now very confused by what he was saying. Yet knew her life was in danger now. "How...do I know I can trust you?"she asked. Scooting away a little as she was nervous. "The last person I trusted put me on this shit hole to be a slave."she said. Looking away as she sighed softly. "This force.....why does the empire hate it? Also clone wars? What are you talking about."she asked.

 

[RidePlayer]

Cain said "search your feelings. The force will tell you if you can trust me. Trust in it like you've trusted in it whenever it helped you read someones feelings." Hearing her questions he said "because the emperor was secretly a sith an ancient practioners of the dark side of the force. A side that corrupts its users by having them channel there hate and fear to power there abilities. The emperor doesn't fear the force. He just wants anyone who can weild it under his control fearing a rise of the jedi again those that practiced the light of the force. They were flawed though. They thought the secret to the force was to cut out all emotions it clouded them made them blind to the truth about the living force and threats out there." Hearing her other question shocked him he said "the war that happened between the seperatists and the republic it was only ten years ago you had to be what 8 9 10? Anyway that's not important. If were found the emperor will try to convurt us or he will kill us. All we have is each other now. I can teach you about your abilities if you trust me." Standing up and offering his hand to her.

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina listened as he spoke trying to stay calm. This was all real but something about this guy intrigued her. Burying all memories of the war but his answer brought them all back to her. Looking to Cain before she cautiously took his hand. "I was eight....but lost everything."she said. Feeling him pull her to her feet. "Where do we go from here? They will soon find us here."she said.

 

[RidePlayer]

Cain thought for a moment. He said "I'm sorry for your loss. Its hard for someone raised on the old jedi faith to understand it since we are taken from our lives early in life to be raised Jedi I do know loss though. Losing my order....well like you said it was losing everything." Her question said "your right we need to find some way off world. If we wait to long the empire will send inquisitors to investigate the rumors of force users." He looked at her and said "you were brought in from off world to work right? You probably don't have a boarding pass just like I don't we will have to stow away or steal a vessel. It can't be a imperial ship though. A trader or a merchant something with not as tight security on its transponder. We'd have to disable it or any system we go to that isn't a backwater outerrim world will most likely already have missing ship reports. Lets head to the docks but stay low profile keep to the alley ways." Leading her out of the building.

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina agreed before she stayed close to Cain. The market area was very busy so it was easy to blend in. Taking his hand, making sure she couldn't lose him. Every so often she was pressed against his back. "Go right....the hanger is that way and we can find a ship."she said. Pausing before recognizing a trader before hugging him gently. Explaining they need a way out before he showed them to his ship. Placing them in a compartment that was just big enough for them. There was only one mattress so that meant they had to share.

 

[RidePlayer]

Cain sensed no ill will or hostile intention from the trader. Hiding with Catalina in the cramped compartment. The lone bunk the only bit of furniture. He sat his things down in the corner and said "this will do until we can get to another system and make plans. The inquisitors will be looking for us as long as he can get us to another star system preferrebly on on of the outer rim worlds we can make our next plan. " He said "If need be I will be able to defend us." Palming several components of something on his belt. Several small pieces of tech.

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina nodded her head before she laid down on the mattress. "Okay did you have a planet in mind?"she asked. Eyeing Cain up as he was very good looking. Looking away blushing slightly as he looked to her. "He should be leaving within the thirty minutes. Heading for another port city."she said.

 

[RidePlayer]

Cain noticed the blush on her. He said " when we reach the next port we will find out the easiest hyperspace lanes to reach the outer rim. I know a couple o planets that are not inhospitable for humans but we will need credits.....we might have to stop at hutta. The planet is owned by the hutt cartels we could try to get credits and fake identification there." He took in her beauty Catalina was exotic not sure what world her features hailed from. Cain was a mandalorian a race known for there strenght and combat prowress. Though he had to give up his mandalorian lifestyle when the order took him in at the age of two. He said "come sit across from me Catalina" Sitting indian style on the compartment floor. When she joined him he said "I can sense your connection to the force. Plus the way you used it subconciously when your friend was in paril. You need to learn to control it at will. That will also help you hide it. What I am saying is will you learn my ways of the force Catalin?"

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina soon noddes her head and crawled off the bed. Taking a seat across feom him before he spoke again. Nodding her head she wanted answers to how she had this power and how to control it. "What do I have to do?"she asked. He could see that curious look in her eyes. Her beauty was indeed exotic and her clothing hiding one hell of a body.

 

[RidePlayer]

He said "first clear your mind. The force is a entity that we can not see or touch. We can not taste or smell it but it flows through everything shaping both life death and fate. It is a energy that is in all of us. It binds us together and if you open yourself to it you can control it. THe dark side tries to control the force. The light I guess you can say we try to borrow it. To communicate with it. My teachings will be a bit differn't then how I was trained though. The jedi tried to sever there emotions fearing it would corrupt them. While using fear and hate to control the force can. I've found emotions that can strengthen the force but in a more natural way one that doesn't taint the soul." He held his hand out closing his eyes as Catalin would feel like his own hand was brushing across her cheek and down her neck. Stopping at her color bone. Like he was physically touching her but there was still the space between them.

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina nodded her head and began to relax. Shivering from his touch, as it was gentle. Taking a deep breathe before looking to Cain. Hoping this all would help her. Closing her eyws as she began to relax her mind, clearing it. Curious as to what he meant by tainted soul? Yet his touch was slightly arousing at the same time. Trying to keep her emotions in check. After all they just met but he was pretty good looking.

 

[RidePlayer]

Cain said "now just like I did. Feel the force flow through you and me. Feel it reach out to caress my face just as I did yours. Let it flow from your fingers as you make it an extention of your own hand." Cain could feel her slight arousal. He had learned long ago lust and passion could boost one's connection to the force but without the risk of falling like hate and anger. The jedi had thought that seperating oneself from all emotion was key to not falling. Lust and passion strengthened the mind. Elevated it to higher places. This was a new path to the force that he planned to teach Catalin one that would make her powerful if she could learn to control it. He said "embrace that feeling you had when I let the force caress your face and neck. Use that emotion of lust. Passion and pleasure are aspects of nature the force is nature itself. It will help elovate your connection."

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina soon blushed before nodding her head. Closing her eyes as her hand reached out. Her touch was gentle and warm as she caress his face. Moving her fingers down his neck to his collar bone. Allowing the force to take over with each movement. Though her hand went down to his chest, stopping right above his heart. Focusing on his heartbeat before she opened her eyes. Meeting his gaze before she pulled her hand away, "Sorry.."

 

[RidePlayer]

Cain said "no theres no reason to be sorry. You reached out with the force. Physically interacting with me not only as I had to you but more. I could feel it you feeling my heartbeat through the force. Feeling how the force was connected to my very lifeforce. You have a natural connection with the force and in time you will be able to use it like you have lived your life as a jedi. More importantly you won't risk accidental usage that might expose you again." He smiled at her and said "you did well Catalin. I know this is strange especially the whole lust and passion part. The acts of lust and passion open up clarity in ones mind that isn't there when other thoughts like stress and worry are present. But when we are in the throws of passion those negative thoughts seem to stop making it easier to have the right mindstate to connect to the force. Touching something reaching out is only the barest of basics in time you can do more borrow the force in the air around someone to send them flying away from you if they are an attack or...." Gently pulling her till she was face to face with him. There lips only inches apart as he said "or pull a friend or someone important to you in times of need." Gently moving her body back to where she was sitting across from him.

 

[Lexylove13]

Catalina's cheeks were bright red as he pulled her close to him. Nodding her head before she felt him gently push her away. "T-Thanks..."she said. Hear what he said and it was starting make more sense to her. "We...should...rest...you can have the mattress."she said. Grabbing the extra blanket before laying it out on the floor. Soon laying down on the blanket as she was going to try and get some rest.

 

[RidePlayer]

Cain said "no you take the mattress I insist. Im use to sleeping wherever and on whatever I can." He wanted her to be comfortable knowing things where going to get hard for her going forward. They were prey now and they had to outrun there hunters.
