CSI Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 CSI jumped off the stone pole and held out a silver lightsaber: "Is this yours? Why do you need it so bad? You senced something, didn't you?" Vergil, who was still standing on the stone pole, senced something terribly wrong. ::CSI, there is a Sith Lord around here. I can feel it.:: ::What happened?:: CSI whispered back. ::I sence there is a dark aura around that woman.:: ::That woman?.:: CSI senced it, too, and used Force Sight and took a close look at the newcomer. ::Yes. And I suspect she's kind of related to Carus and Aksul.:: ::Mmm...Things just got uglier.:: CSI frowned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aurora's expression cleared. ::I'm so glad. And so proud.:: She turned her gaze towards Darth Ira. "That would be a loss of sense, rather than a gain." * * * Arion took his lightsaber, and reconnected it to the one at his belt. "What I sensed, or did not sense, is my concern. I'm going for a walk. I'll be back later." He felt Aksul searching for him, and told him, ::I'm going for a walk. Stay here, and practice your lightsaber forms with CSI, or something.:: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aksul heard Arion's dismissal of him through the force and felt throughouly annoyed. Through the force he yelled ::YOU ARE NOT GOING ALONE... NOW, YOU CAN EITHER STAY HERE WITH ME, OR RESPECT YOUR ELDERS AND WAIT UP BECAUSE IM COMMING WEATHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT... MASTER!!!:: He could see him in the distance and used the force to speed himself up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ben used Aurora's hand to help him get off the bed and kissed her on the cheek, then turned to face his mother. "Well... look how my own mother has changed, and look what it got you, grey scaley skin, yellow eyes, and.... a little toasted if you dont mind me saying." He chuckled. "I will not join you mother, I truly did admire you when I was younger. Now look at you... your a disgrase of the Jedi. You shame me, not to mention hurt me. I- I can't believe I'm related to someone who only cares about blood lust." He said softly, barely audiable. He paused and looked up at her, and took a few steps closer, letting go of Aurora. "Please mother, I know you still love me, I can sense it inside you. I still love you, just please let go of your anger of the Jedi. I am still angry at them, but I have fallen in love with Aurora, I trust her with my life. Just like I trusted you with my life when I was younger. If you cannot trust her, then trust me." He said hopefully, but sad. He turned to Aurora for her to add something if she wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 "Arion Starfire!" CSI shouted behind him, "Stay with us. It's my responsibility if my friend, any of my friend...is in any form of harm. If you insist, then I'm sorry, I have to stop you by all means, which includes, immobilize you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aurora's expression was grave, though inside she was proud of Ben. "I know how difficult it is for you to trust me, or to forgive the Jedi. If...if something happened to Arion, or Ben, I don't know if I could forgive even myself for letting it happen." She looked Ira in the eye. "But even so, I would have to try, because it's what they would want of me." * * * Arion turned back around, and shouted back at them, "Look, I appreciate the concern and all, but I'm not going to put any of you in danger. It's better that I go and figure out what's going on. I promise, I'll come back." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aksul saw Arion turn around to yell at both him and CSI, but he was well with in about 20 feet now. By the time he responded he was within 10 feet of him, "MASTER, YOU ARE A COMPLETE AND UTTER FOOL! I am sorry that I have to do this.... but you leave me no choice." He paused and lifted one of his arms, and said "Forgive me" then shot lightning at him, not powerful enough to kill him, but enough to incopassiate him. After he shot him he ran up to him, and used the force to bring him back to the ship's cargo hold, where he could lock himself with him and talk some sense into him. Once he made sure the door was locked, he woke Arion up, preying for the best and that he would be forgiven. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ira was listening to her son intently, but something inside her clicked into place when she heard how her own son thought of her right now. "I- I did it all... for you, my son." She said, softly. "You're right, I guess I kind of went out of control. But what of all the Jedi that I slaughtered, how can I ever be forgiven? How can *you* forgive me for what I did to you?" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When Ben heard his mother say this he filled the Force with joy, and stepped up to his mother to embrace her for the first time in many years. Softly he wispered, "Because *I* love you mom, no matter what. Nothing will *ever* change that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aurora smiled at the two of them, happily, and left them alone together. * * * Arion came to in the cargo hold. He observed that Aksul was there, and the door was locked. He knew that he could easily unlock it, for he knew the access codes, but he remained seated, resignedly. "You know, there are easier, and less painful ways of incapacitating someone," he said, slightly annoyed. He recalled Aksul's words before he was knocked out. "Who's the more foolish, the fool, or the fool who follows him?" he asked, dryly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Ben sensed Aurora leave, but did not move from embracing his mother. "Mom, I've missed you, more than you know. Do not worry about my injury. I'm a Jedi, it will heal quickly. I'm just so glad that you found me again, we can be a family again." He paused and took a deep breath. "As for the Jedi that you have killed, I forgive you, and I *know* Aurora does as well. She forgave me, and I killed twice as many Jedi than you did, because I hated them so much for what they did to you. Now, if I can forgive you, then that gives you hope. I know how hard it is to let go, but you feel a *lot* better once you do. Not only are Aurora and I in love with each other, she is *my* Jedi *Master*." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ira was so happy to be embracing her son like this. She listened to him for a long time, and when he was finished she replied, "If you can be forgiven, then I can be too. Aurora will probialy make you a Jedi Knight soon, you have redeemed your parents, and I am so proud of you." She said softly, then moved back. The fire in her eyes finally was gone, and she had returned to her old self. Her eyes had returned to her origional bright blue color, the same as her son's, and her skin tone reverted to her tan colored skin. She called out through the force to Aurora, ::Aurora, come back. You helped as much as Ben, I wanted to thank you. I want to rejoin the Jedi, if you are willing to have me back:: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aksul stood there looking at Arion. "I don't care who's foolish. I care about helping my *friend* and master. Now, if you would like to end our friendship by going and getting killed, fine, but not while *I* am alive, not if I have anything to say about it. Understood?" He paused. "Get some rest, I will stay here and make sure nobody harms you. And yes... I do know that there are less painful ways to get you to listen to me, but I wanted you to remember it, because you hurt me when you refused my help. Now, you have two options, that I will allow you to do, or I get the sleep agent. You can try to sleep or meditate here or in your quarters, *or* you can go check on my son and Aurora, and then rest here or in your quarters. Its your choice, but know that I will be watching you... *master*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 ::Forgive me, my parents.:: CSI whispered quietly. Then he shouted: "I, Jedi Master, CSI, hereby to release the seal to 30%." Then his whole body began to glow brightly. After a short period, the glow dimmed and vanished. "Here we go." CSI ran to the Jedi Phoenix, and teleported into the Cargo Hold. "Freezing Field," he whispered and ice began to appear inside the cargo hold, after about 1 minute, the Jedi Fighter was like an Ice Statue. [OOC: To avoid unnessensary circumstances to the present world, CSI limited his power to 20% of his original power. He knows that if he releases the power that would bring him a disaster. So the Releasing Seal is his last resort. Once the seal is released, his power had boosted up 5 times.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aurora came and stood in the doorway, and smiled at them both. "Seeing you two together is thanks enough. The Jedi would always welcome you back." She cocked her head to the side a little, as if she were listening. "Where's Arion and Aksul? I've been looking around for them, but I haven't seen them." * * * Arion looked from Aksul, to CSI, and back again, and sighed. "Very well, you've made your point. I tried to keep you all out of this, but it seems I underestimated your friendship. I'm sorry, my friends. Shall we go check on Aurora and Ben? It's.... kinda chilly in here."

Darth Randus Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Aksul got up and held his hand out to Arion to help him up. "Come on! I think Aurora is looking for us to tell us something. Lets see what happened." He said eagerly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ben *felt* Aurora in the doorway and ran to get her, the child deep down inside him finally beginning to show. He embrased her eagerly, and told her through the force ::You were right about everything, my love. I have my life back, I can't believe it. We can have a famiy, finally! I can't wait to see what happens next!:: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Ira' stood there watching her son, both of them were truely happy for the first time in years, and were not afraid to show the world. She walked up to Aurora and Ben and embraced them both at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 CSI sighed in relief. "Good, Arion. You made the right choice." Then he walked out of the Jedi Phoenix, and jumped onto the roof. "Seal the power to 20%," CSI said, and whispered to Aurora: ::You can find them in Cargo Hold. And if you're fast enough, you might see a very rare ice statue.:: Then he asked Vergil: "What do you propose to do for our swoop race?" Vergil replied: "Let's talk it in Coruscanti cantina. We need some people wo witness our racing." Now CSI was a little annoyed: "If you want to make a race, make it private. Don't drag innocences into this." "I am not. I'm simply that I'm challenging Swoop Grand champion for a swoop race." Vergil said lightly. "I told you I don't like that title." CSI's teeth was grinding. "Whoa, whoa, I thought there is a line in Jedi code about this? What's it? 'There is no passion'?" Vergil scoffed. "This has nothing to do with Jedi Code. Don't sway from topic," CSI calmed himself, "Now did you come up with a track?" "Yes, and I would like to announce it in Cantina." Vergil smiled evilly. "Fine, what's your condition?" CSI asked again. "If you win, I'll offer a chance to be redeemed to the Light Side." Then she paused and made an devilish smile, "If I win, you have to give up your touch in light side, and...join me to the Dark Side." CSI just froze there for 1 minute, then he squeezed his answer through his teeth: "DEAL." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Aurora held him close, rejoicing in the knowledge that he was happy, and his family had been reunited in the light. ::I am so happy for you. I- I love you so much, and there is nothing I want more than for you to be happy.:: * * * Arion unlocked the door, and they walked towards the medbay. He stopped, though, just outside. "You go in," he told Aksul. "I'll, uh, wait out here. No, don't worry," he added hastily. "I'm not going to run out on you again. Go on, I have a feeling they're waiting for you."

CSI Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Suddenly, CSI went in front of the Med-Bay door, and said to Arion: "We need to discuss something...Vergil decided to challenge me on Swoop Bike racing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Arion frowned. "A.... swoop race? Why would she want to do that? And I thought you two already had it out with each other."

CSI Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 "Mmm...I don't want to talk about it. And she said she would announce our swoop race in a Coruscanti cantina. What does she propose to do?"

Aurora Starfire Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 "Oh, yeah. Sure," Arion said, sheepishly. He went outside for a moment, then returned with the katana. "Sorry about that. It completely slipped my mind." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Aksul walked in to the medbay and saw Ben, his wife, and Aurora all sharing a embrace, and joined in. He could feel his son's happyness through the force and could only guess that he was able to help her. ::We all love you, my son. You have managed to redeem your family with Aurora's help. You are truely a great Jedi and i am proud of you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ben could not be happier sharing a embrace with his love, and his family. He could not wait to see what would happen next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Aurora hated to break the happy moment, but she had something of importance to say, and she wanted to say it in everyone's presence. "Arion, CSI, come in here please. And Vergil, if she would like to come." Arion stepped into the room, hesitantly. "Something you need?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 ::I'll be there.:: CSI answered. ::I think I'll pass. You guys have fun.:: Vergil replied. Suddenly, CSI appeared in front of Vergil, and waved his hand: "Let's go." "Yes...yes, I'm going." Vergil said reluctantly. After several minutes, CSI and Vergil stood in the Med-Bay and wondering what happened. Vergil was looking away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Starfire Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Aurora's expression was solemn, as she turned to face the group. "We are all Jedi. The Force speaks through us. Through our actions, the Force proclaims itself and what is real. Today we are here to acknowledge what the Force has proclaimed." She turned to address Ben, and said, "Step forward, Padawan. Ben, by the right of the Council, by the will of the Force, I dub thee, Jedi.... Knight of the Republic." Arion stepped forward, and intoned, "Take up your lightsaber, Ben, Jedi Knight. And may the Force be with you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 "Well I'm not..." Vergil started complaining, and CSI used the Force to temporarily silenced her. When she looked at CSI, she felt CSI's sound echoed in her head: Be quiet. Then the duo stood there, like statues. When Arion finished "And may the Force Be with you." CSI clapped his hand and walked up and shook Ben's hand: "Congratulations, I know you will be a famed Jedi Master, just like I was." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Randus Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Ben stepped forward when Aurora asked him to, not sure what was about to happen. Upon hearing that he was now a Jedi Knight he fell into a state of shock. "I- I don't believe this Aurora, I gladly accept. Thank you." He then stepped up to her and embaced her, ::We should celibrate, my love. What do you want to do?:: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aksul and 'Ira' stood watching their son, extremely proud of him.

Aurora Starfire Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Aurora smiled up at him. "You deserve it, Ben. You've brought both of your parents back into the light, and made me very proud, and very happy." She laid her head on his shoulder. ::Whatever you want to do, my love. This is your moment.:: Arion snuck out of the room, and left the two of them alone together. He headed for his quarters, and attempted to rest.

Darth Randus Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Aksul felt Arion sneek out of the room and followed him, discreetly. *Oh no you don't master. I'm gonna make sure that you rest, even if I have to kick down the door.* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ben was so happy there with Aurora, ::Want to go out for dinner, maybe we can see if my parents want to come.:: He chuckled, ::I sense my father is a little suspicious as to what your brother is up to.:: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Ira' decided that it had been a long day, and went into the cargo hold to meditate.
