Darth Randus Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Randus began to let his expression show the calmness he was beginning to feel from Aurora's presence, but also making sure that the other jedi and his master would not be able to sense his thoughts as he rose come of his mental barriers.. He then hesitantly walked up to her, afraid how she would react to what he was about to reveal to her and said "Aurora... I- I love you, with all of my heart" and began to reach out for her face.

Aurora Starfire Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Aurora trembled a little under his touch. His revelation stunned her, and she didn't know what to think amid the surge of conflicting emotions. "Ben.... I...." A tear trickled down her cheek. "I... I don't know what to say.... I--I need to center myself, get my inner calm back. I need to be at peace...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Randus/Ben knew that his revelation would have stunned Aurora, but dispite her reaction, wanted to help her. In a calm, soothing voice he told her "Aurora, I can sense how you feel like your mind is chaos right now. Why don't you meditate to help calm and center yourself, if you like, I can walk you through one of the meditations you tought me not too long ago."

Aurora Starfire Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Aurora tried to smile. "Usually, I'm the one who helps you calm down. Thank you.... I--I would like that." She sat down next to him, and tried to focus, to reach down into her core and find peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 CSI took a peek at Arion, and smiled: "Congratulations. Just don't forget to invite me when the Wedding comes." Then he dimmed the Force Light a little, and his eyes moved back to the book, "Will you?" [CSI constantly pay attention to his surroundings. And the place you talking is just a wall between you and him. And he casted Force Concealment to avoid your detection. Don't worry, he won't interfere your party. He's not a party crasher, you know.] After sometime, he closed his book, and whispered to Arion: ::Love itself doesn't push you to Dark Side. Only the passion and hatred, especially when you lost someone you love, can lead you to Dark Side. And come to think about it--If someone killed your beloved one--let's assume you have one--and you would swear revenge on your beloved one, right? And what happens? Nothing, it can't bring your beloved one back, and you feel empty.:: Then he stood up, pulled out his katana, transformed it into a silver lightsaber, "Want to practice Juyo with me?"

Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Arion frowned. He could feel his sister was in a tumult of emotion, but something was blocking him from deciphering what the nature of those emotions were. CSI's words confused him, and he shot CSI a puzzled glance. "Er.... sure, I'd be happy to practice some Juyo with you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 "You will see...you will see..." CSI's voice faded off as he charged and began with three rapid horizontal slashes. And thus, they began their sparring match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Arion grinned a little as he blocked CSI's slashes and counterattacked with two diagonal strikes, first coming from the left, then from the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 CSI narrowed his eyes, and jumped back a little, and countered the diagonal strikes. When he countered the last strike, he made a saber lock intentionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Arion frowned. He drew the Force to him, and Force Pushed CSI, trying to break the saber lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 CSI casted Force Push at the same time, and he resisted it by all his power. "Not bad, Arion. Good job!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Ben smiled when he heard Aurora say this and chuckled as he sat down next to her, and began to meditate. "As we both know, times change, and they have... Try to meditate, calm your mind... and feel my calmness as well , draw upon it to help center yourself."

Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Aurora struggled to find peace in the midst of the turmoil her mind was in. She could feel Ben near her, like the calm eye in the storm of emotions she was trapped in. She clung to his calm, and it helped her to slowly rebuild her own inner peace. She was able to restore a measure of order to her feelings, and began to sort through them, and determine their nature. * * * Arion withstood CSI's Force Push.... barely. He kept his up, but he knew it couldn't last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 As Ben/Randus was meditating, he could feel Aurora's progress at calming her mind and could sense that she was beginning to center herself. This made him smile and reach out to her. "How is the meditation comming? I can sense that your mind has at least calmed down considerably."

CSI Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 "Ahhhh!" CSI felt he can no longer withstand Arion's Force Push. Then he smashed into a shelf of books, and bounced back on the ground. And the books were falling from the bookshelf, and they covered CSI. With a loud crash, the book shelf collapsed, and made a loud thud. Barely escape the disaster, CSI made a dimension shift and teleported away the book shelf. "Whew, that was close. I hate to be a meat cookie--Not delicious."

Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Aurora smiled a little. "I'm doing much better now. Thank you for your help. It means a lot." Tentatively, she reached out and touched Ben's shoulder. "I... I know you're waiting, but.... I don't know what to do. Part of me still feels betrayed, and yet...." * * * Arion stumbled forward when CSI let go, but quickly regained balance. "Whoa.... that was crazy...." he muttered, then looked over at CSI. "Are you alright?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 "...and yet you still feel something for me?" He said, finishing her setence, while turning towards her and reaching our for her shoulders with both of his hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 "......yes," Aurora said, softly. She looked away, shy, and a little frightened by the new and strange feelings that beset her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Ben smiled when he heard this and radiated how happy he was through the bond he had formed with Aurora when she was his jedi master as he slowly reached up to gently turn her face towards him and leaned in towards her to kiss her.

Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 She hesitated a moment, then let herself be washed over with Ben's happiness. Her heart beat faster, and she leaned in closer, happy, for the moment, just to be there, with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Ben was happy just to be there with Aurora, kissing her. However, dispite what he wanted, they needed to eventually stop to catch their breath. He reluctantly pulled back slightly from her, and had a smile on his face. His heart had been beating faster, and he could sense how happy Aurora was to be with him, dispite of what he had become. "I love you Aurora... with all of my heart. But, there is still a question that has come up in my head. Havn't you just broken your vows of being a jedi, last time I checked, which has not been since the loss of my parents mind you, is that the jedi are not supposed to have any attachments." He told her while stroking her arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Aurora leaned her head on his shoulder, and sighed. "There is a tenet of the Order which reads thus, but there have been times in the Order's history when marriage was not forbidden, most notably the era before the time of Exar Kun. Even recently, in our own times, there have been Jedi who married, and were not expelled. The case with your parents..... is strange. There is something off about it." She looked up at him, and her expression was grave. "I've spoken with CSI about this, a little, in the past, and he concurs. Love does not lead to the dark side, but passion, and hate, and fear, can." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 [Off-Topic: Wow, very nice posts, you two. You know what, this is a climax...Anyway, move on.] CSI stood up and smiled to Arion: "No, I'm fine. Thank you, what about you?" Suddenly, the light went out. "You know, I fought you with Force Light on, and my Force Power was almost depleted. Don't worry, you don't have to use Force Powers, and we can spar in any style you want, and if you want we can continue our Juyo match. And this is library, let's do it quietly, and I don't want other patrons to be disturbed." Then he signaled that Aurora and Ben's approximate location.

Darth Randus Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Ben thought about this for several minutes before replying to her. "Indeed, perhaps the fools of the old order held a gruge against my family... But, I guess now, you are one of the only people that I would consider to be family." As he said this he rested his head against her sholder, embrasing her, before continueing. "I would not know much about this since I have been a Sith for so long... Ironic, a Sith Lord falling in love with a Jedi, I wonder what N'Dul will do when he finds out... My love for you knows no bounds, and nobody will ever change that."

Aurora Starfire Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Aurora smiled a little, but then grew grave. "I know, and.... I love you, too, but.... something has been bothering me, as well. I love you so much, and I want you to be happy. But, the dark side corrupts, and I don't want that to happen to you. Could.... could you at least think about leaving the dark side behind.... if not for your sake, then for mine? It would mean a great deal to me." * * * "I'm fine, thanks," Arion grinned. "How about.... freestyle, no Force Powers?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
