Training with a student

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin walked into the courtyard sporting his dual lightsabers, and doning his combat robes. He stepped forward and halted, closing his eyes he tried to feal Bastilla, wanting to know if she was still pondering the meditation. He just stood there with his lightsabers in hand, both deactivated.

[Bastilla Shan]

Bastilla got into her robes as she walked over to her master. Bastilla could feel his presense faintly from the walk here, so Bastilla hoped that he was there. "Master, I am ready for your training." she said.

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin nodded and ignited his dual lightsabers, looking Bastilla in the eye and saying. "Now, padawan, we are going to do some real combat, I don't want you to hold back, just trust that I know what I am doing." He was trying to test her emotional limits, trying to see if she was indeed as focused as she seemed. He nodded and said. "Begin, and may the force be with you." He then brout his lightsabers to bare in front of his body, waiting for her to strike.

[Bastilla Shan]

Bastilla wasn't sure what the test was really testing. Was the test proving her loyalty, intelligence, or just merely a small battle? She erased her thoughts from her mind and used force resistance. It was the best thing to start out with, and was most useful (besides weilding a lightsaber acourse).

Bastilla drew out her double-blade lightsaber. It glew like the sun, and faught like Rah. What other double-bladed lightsaber could be as good as hers? "May the force be with you master." she said as she prepared to strike her master at his shoulder.

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin blocked his shoulder from harm and dodged backwards, using his force speed as he went, and then sprang off from his left foot. He then flourished his lightsabers, and aimed a strike at Bastillas hip, not intending to hit her, just to make her think that he would. This lesson was more than a simple lightsaber exercise, it was testing her ability to keep focused better after she had clensed her mind.

[Bastilla Shan]

Bastilla dodge the attack, but just barely. His speed was incredible, and absolutly perfect. She could not hold longer for it. Bastilla then try to strike her lightsaber at his shoulder. She really didn't want to try and hurt her master. She was afraid that she might mess up.

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin ducked and rolled to the left and stood up, smiling at Bastilla, and saying. "Come now padawan, focus, let all of the not-vital information go, and concentrate on the battle." He then struck out with his lightsaber, aiming for her leg, or rather a couple of milimeters in front of it.

[Bastilla Shan]

Bastilla did what she was told. She immediately responded to the attack and when for her master shoulder.

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin easily dodged to the left, and then closed his eyes, he could feal the force flowing from Bastilla, free and untaimed, it was such a pity that all of that power was going untapped. He decided that it was time to end this small stuff, and realy force her to work up a sweat. He lunged at the right side of her upper torso with his left hand lightsaber, and aimed for her throat with his right hand one. The force guiding him for pinpoint accuracy, speed and control, he kept in mind that she also wielded a double bladed lightsaber, of which the opposite end could cause some trouble.

[Bastilla Shan]

Bastilla couldn't react fast enough. She saw the blade swarming toward her and fewll to the ground. She felt ashamed that she could not keep up the fight. she ekpt her place and looked at the ground.

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin extinguished his lightsaber, and bowed to Bastilla, before neeling down to inspect her, he took a hold of her right arm, and pulled her to her feet. Looking her up and down, he caught her eye and said. "You did well padawan, I did not expect you to last as long as you did." He placed a hand on her shoulder and continued. "The force is strong with you, but it is wild, untaimed, and you do not harness it like you should. I would recomend that you have a few more training sessions with me later on."

[Bastilla Shan]

"I would liek that." bastilla said as she got up. "You wisdom would be most satisfying."

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin nodded to the student, and said. "Now, would you like to do some mild meditation, or do you want to call it a day, hit the showers, and get an early night?

[Bastilla Shan]

"I believe I should hit the showers and call it a day." she said feeling a little bit exhausted.

[Stalin Mordo]

Stalin nodded, and bowed, saying as he did so. "Very well then, may the force be with you."
