Tawain

"There, Sha'ara, it's okay, it's over." Tawain tried to sound soothing, but it wasn't easy, not with the fear he felt inside.
Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering, and suffering leads to... No! NO, he would not!
"Come on now Sha'ara, it's not so bad. I felt the same. You know what I heard a Jedi say once? 'The paths of anger lead to the Dark Side. Of all these paths, only one leaves you a chance of escape, and that is the path of righteous anger.'
Come on, now, let's get back. We'll show him what we're made of, eh?"
 
Sha'ara

Sha'ara's breathing slowed and her heartbeat calmed as she listened Tawain's soothing voice. "I still feel such shame, I don't think what I was feeling was righteous anger." I shivered though I was not cold. I got up and brushed myself off, looking at Tawain I said, "The Dark Side has made its presence known in my life... I felt it's desire for me, it won't give up easily on me. I feel it now clinging to me." I looked deeply into Tawain's eyes, "You should probably just stay away from me, or it might get you too... at least one of us should be safe. You're a good man, Tawain. You deserve better than me." I begin to walk back to camp with a heavy load of guilt on my shoulders.
 
ooc: damn, completely forgot to join on that one. Really great, gypsy, you surely make the whole thing interesing!

ic:
Tawain stared at Sha'ara as they walked back. She had told him to stay away. Well, that wasn't exactly true, she had said it might be better for him...and it had sounded genuine, as if she was concerned that she might dangerous for him.
But Tatain would not even think about it. Had not Luke Skywalker himself been avidly wanted by the Dark Side? Had he not a few times yielded to his anger? And yet he was today the greatest Jedi of the Light Side.
No, Tawain would not stay away of Sha'ara. By his Jedi honor, he swore himself that he would protect her, whatever the cost.
 
OOC: Tawain...

*sigh* Be still my beating heart over that last post!! I am about to melt right into my seat!!
 
Zen

I asked Luke "Why did you let that go on for so long?"

I could tell Luke was not happy with his decision "I wanted Drakon to know what it feels like to have some of that cockiness taken away from him at a moment of glory. He could get himself or others killed with that attitude."

I looked at him "And what about THEM and what they went through?"

Luke replied "I didnt want that to happen but perhaps it's best that it did happen. I know from expierence that sometimes the most terrible things that happen to you can make you stronger. I think this will help them more then hurt them in the long run."

With that Luke left to meet up with the other students as I stand there thinking of how that man lives with the hard lessons he forces himself to teach to his students.

Sha'ara

I could feel Tawain's eyes boring into my back all the way back to the base. I could sense in him some sort of feeling of, what was it, chivalry? Like he wanted to be my white knight. When we finally got back to base, I turned and said to him in the fiercest tone I could summon, "I told you!! You need to get as far away from me as possible! This is hard enough on me, please, don't make it harder!" Looking into his eyes I saw such tenderness there that I almost lost all my convictions about keeping him safely away from me, but then I reigned in my emotions. "Get away from me Tawain... if you know what's good for you."

Walking back into the building I noticed that Farlo had witnessed the whole scene. I glared at him wholeheartedly while he just smirked. I, in very non-Jedi tradition gave him The Finger, "...and the White Hawk you rode in on." I growled at him.

Praise...

As the young couple emerged from the woods, Drakon was clapping slowly, mocking applaud.

"Most impressive, Sha'ara! May The Force be with you! Perhaps some meditation will cool your rage..."

Drakon smiled as she hid her face from him, crying again. Tawain was visibly upset. The dark one walked far behind, remaining aloof as always as they returned to base.
 
Tawain

Tawain sttod as if rooted to the ground. He felt as if his heart had been made whole and then totally broken again inthe last twelve hours.
He would not let this happen, he would not! He would keep Sha'ara from the Dark side, even if it meant battlling a sith!
He shivered and wished he had not though that last...
Shaking his head, he went to the training grounds, where all students were now gathered, and waited for Luke's instructions...

ooc:*gulp* continue like that and you'll soon have me in tears, Indika
 
OOC - A comment and a question...

Comment - Drakon is soooo evil!! I love it!! *applause*

Question- are you using html code to make the italics and the bold letters?
 
Zen

I saw Drakon making fun at Shar'ara again as she began to cry from it. I calmly walked over to Drakon as I hit him over the head with the back of my sabre knocking him out! I looked over Drakon and mocked "Oops I must have missed that fly on your head." as I walked away.
 
Sha'ara

Sha'ara threw herself on her bed allowing herself to cry tears she thought she no longer had. Why had she come to feel something so strong for this person only to have the opportunity to know him ripped away from her?? "It's not fair!!" She cried out. A voice came to her from somewhere else tormenting her even more. "You fear me my child?" The slithery words crawled around on her brain. "That's good, fear leads to the dark side, especially when accompanied by your anger. I felt your anger today.. that was good.. hone it... develop it and the hatred will grow within you, all the Dark Side can be yours..." I cover my ears willing the voice to be gone from my head. "Leave me!" I cry out, "just leave me." I collapse in a ruined heap on my bed crying tears of bitterness and rage.
 
You have to put an "i" in brackets before the comment and then end with "/i" in brackets. No Qoute marks. Brackets are this [].

It's tough being bad. I have no friends yet. And like I said, "evil" is just an adjective. He has feelings, too, he just has a tough shell, that's all. He does lean a bit more to the Dark Side than most, though, I'll admit, but that's his history.

OOC

Blushing at the compliment... well, I don't want you in tears Lightman, but thanks!

Thanks for the help... I'm going to practice here and now...

bold
italics
underline

Let's see if that works!!
 
Everybody wants a piece...

Drakon glared at Zen from the dirt, knowing that any more words from him would only show his embarassment.

We will have our day, Jedi, he thought to himself as he stood and brushed himself off once more.

Drakon secretly wanted to float a rock towards Zen, but he controlled himself. He sometimes didn't know how deep into the Dark Side he would allow himself to go...
 
OOC

Okay, let me rephrase that.. Drakon seems evil right now... can't wait to see how it fleshes out... there I go with the naughty terminology again.... heh heh...

Thanks for the help guys!!
 
Dark thoughts...

Drakon walked the halls silently, grinning at Sha'ara's torment.

The Dark Side can only take you if you want it to, Sha'ara. The question is, why do you want it to? he projected to her. In his mind it wasn't so much torture as it was psychoanalysis. He felt a need to delineate to deepest weaknesses of all those around him. It was what kept him in control.
 
Zen

I look at Drakon who is obviously pissed. I think I can take him but now is not the time.

I tell him "We can finish this another time. We both have things that are needing attending. For now let's just call this a draw. Agreed?"

Drakon looked at me sternly as he calmly answered "Agreed." As we both went on our ways.

I needed to meet up with a certain red head who was probably waiting for me by now.

Yarrgh, I can't bear this any longer! Renegade, have Luke start the training or something...anything, just have something happen or I'll melt! ;)
 
Sha'ara

Though I had been emotionally and physically put through the wringer, I forced myself up off the bed. I wiped my face with a cool cloth, and run a comb through my hair. I made small braids all along the front of my hair halfway toward the back of my head to keep it off my face, but the rest of it I let swing down to the middle of my back. I pulled out a silver box with leather wrist bands inside. They belonged to my mother, she wore them into battle the day she died. I felt they gave me strength. Leaving the building I ran all the way to the training center. Feeling the wind on me made me feel better and cleared my head a little.
 
On the fence...

Drakon was already at the center, early, as usual, standing on his head as he made various objects in the room float. The demons of the Dark Side spoke to him now as well. He remebered the murders he committed as a Storm Trooper. Focusing on The Force alleviated his repressed guilt, but he knew that he would eventually have to face himself and decide once and for all which side of the Force his heart truly rested on. He was sweating now fighting his memories, when the energies of other students disturbed him and everything fell to its place and he crashed to the floor.

Drakon picked himself back up and crept into the shadows, hiding his fatigue. Never show weakness, he thought.
