Star Wars: A New Force

@AHeartlessNobody It should be fun. Still, I'm skeptical about thinking too far ahead. I have a concern at the moment, while I'm down with playing minor roles or parts, I'm primarily invested in playing Ben's part. If its possible to keep the cast small, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Kylo Ren

29 | Dark Side User | Supreme Leader Kylo Ren

His lightsaber sizzled, still inches from her throat. Her question, her resolve, pulled at an organ he believed was gone. A dried husk, empty shell of what it was suppose to be. He fought vehemently against the urge to comfort her and it showed on his face as slight twitches, uncomfortable turns, and not-unkind glowers.

As Supreme Leader it was his duty to set the galaxy in order. To right the wrongs of the Jedi and The Rebellion, he could see it now... if he accepted the reemergence of these feelings, it would only be a downward spiral from there. Kylo gritted his teeth and slid his red blade another inch forwards.

"Yes, Odette. I hate you! Wholly and completely, without restraint. I despise everything you represent and care about. The Order, Luke, The Light Side! All of it," he yelled.

He deactivated his lightsaber and hooked it to his belt. Kylo Ren turned his side to her, the Dark Side offering him sedatives for his anguish. "I loathe you so much, you're not even worth slaying. Now tell me what you know? A ghost is nothing if not invasive. Where are, Luke and The Resistance?"

Kill the past.

"If you have no answers for me then you're useless to me. Just another vestige of my discarded past." Kylo could feel the vision shifting, the connection beginning to crumble. He narrowed his gaze at Odette, the ghost of past. He moved to touch her, pulling his glove from hand. He wanted to know if she felt like a ghost, if her skin felt the same as before. He warned, "Don't move."

@AHeartlessNobody You're not throwing anything on me. Your mind is flourishing, brimming with ideas, its pretty interesting to watch. All of those are good ideas, while I do believe a baby will complicate what we have planned, it could make for something amazing if done correctly.

Gundam Build Divers: Neo

I'll get a post out later today guys. Good job getting those posts out.

Yu Yu Hakusho - The New Agency

_{Yu Yu Hakusho: The New Agency | Arc 1. They Gather for the Cause}

_{Saturday - Weather: unusually strong thunderstorm, lightning visible and frequent
Objective: Defeat the demon Raigeki.}

---

Yuunmei kept calm throughout the ensuing battle. He ran around the construction site, finding a cavernous hole to hide in. There was mistakes of where he sat on the totem pole. He had strength, strength enough combat normal people, even to dispatch of an adult or two. But going against a demon literally chucking and controlling lightning, that was where he drew the line. He was content on letting those fools down there sacrifice themselves and hopefully go unnoticed. Crouched low, holding his knees to his chest, Yunnmei hid beneath an overarching portion of the lower-steps of massive site.

A unnerving calm in his eyes.

Despite reaching out for his supposed-to-be charges, Genkei had found a mirth in there recklessness. It would make sense that Yusuke would be as vain to choose apprentices like himself. He bounded backwards to create space between himself and the conflict against, Raigeki. If nothing else, he would make good use of their distractions. He charged his finger with three powerful spirit shots. It bulged and the flickering light became a hopeful star in the gray stormy skies.

_{* * *}

Raigeki, old as he was, ambitious and hungry as he was, disliked his odds. He held no qualms about the strength of numbers, four hyenas could, with time and teamwork, conqueror a lion. One of the humans as fast a dart, approached and yet kept her distance. Amongst them, beyond her pitiful attacks were those golden light attacks. He despised those like one would the bite of gnats. They stung and annoyed him. And that annoyance made him wary of these humans. They poised a danger to He Who Slumbers. A infant danger but a danger nonetheless.

With an ease unfitting of a c-class demon, Raigeki dodged away from, Ayame's spinning-blades. Yet he was distracted, so distracted that he missed the pink petals drifting on the wind. The demon spun on his feet, catching the earth just in time to feel the danger. Surely he would have died, though not from the orbs of light or the dying blue flames, but from the hidden blade.

The attacks surged forward, many of them in range of him. Instinctively, he hunched over and tore the air asunder with his roar. A shockwave of stunning energy boomed outwards in a sphere, it was quick: the bellowing thunder after the lightning. Almost as if spent of his energy, Raigeki stuttered and fidgeted, his red eye, white with power.

Genkei vaulted to the ground, erecting a shield of spirit energy to protect, Tatsuya from his own molotov. The sudden spirit bomb from Raigeki had broken the bottle, igniting the fire mid-air, and pushing it towards him. Genkei managed to block the concussive attack and fire for Tatsuya, yet the others would have to deal with their recklessness. It would not kill them but they'd be knocked off their asses for sure, he imagined a bit stunned too.

Every step that the apparition took towards him caused a tremor of fear in him. The woman that he had considered a mistake for near a decade, the girl that had been his light, was waltzing towards him. The image of strength and Light Side power. He steeled himself, staid the impulse to run away. That was not the way of a Knight of Ren or The Supreme Leader of the galaxy. She closed the distance between them, Kylo hushed his stuttering breaths.

"Enough," he muttered in response to her greeting.

He moved away from her, ignoring her to a degree. "ENOUGH! Luke! Leia! Cease this now!"

A sizzle and crackle cut the serenity, his lightsaber brought ignite. He hid his face now, the locks of his black hair concealing him. Lamentation broke his voice. "This," he started, jabbing a harsh finger towards the ghost. "That is cruel! And you call yourself a Jedi..." The Supreme Leader's voice descended to obscurity. His shoulders rose with his quickened breathing, his ire.

Then suddenly, it all came to an eerie calm. Even in the presence of her ghost, Kylo Ren refused to lose control. He turned his tear-dampen face towards her, his recent experiences too harsh to allow all-out sadness on his face. For a instant, unbidden and unwelcome, Snoke's words reached through to him. As dead as Snoke was, they left a painful scar; they whispered his greatest flaw.

You have too much of your father's heart in you, young Solo.

...Kill the past.

Kylo raised his lightsaber towards her. Through a deep scowl he stepped towards her; a predator on the hunt for answers or blood. "What's the meaning of this? you will answer me, whether you be ghost or fabrication. Where's Luke and Rey? I know you know, I can feel them lingering on you. If you've searched out a shell of your past, then surely you've looked for, Luke as well. Or maybe you're just a puppet being controlled by, Luke? Where is she? they?"

His raced at breakneck speeds, searching for answers through his studies. A Force Ghost perhaps?

Star Wars: A New Force

@AHeartlessNobody I can't wait to read it. About to dive in now.

Star Wars: A New Force

@AHeartlessNobody I'm looking forward to it.

Star Wars: A New Force

@Renny sounds good :) can't wait to read it lol.
I know I keep sharing lots of stuff, but I found this song and it made me think of Ben and Odette x3 Like of Ben trying to convince Odette to join him so they can be together but her telling him she cant, and that maybe they were just never meant to be together because everything is against them.


Also, I had an idea rolling around my head and wanted to see what you thought. Like, maybe after we finish this rp or in a separate thread, we do an AU of our story in which Odette turned to the dark side. Like there being a huge shock because everyone thought Ben would fall, when really they should have been worried about Odette being the one to turn. No one noticing her silent struggles and thinking that, because she is a Kenobi, that she would never turn. Or, if you didn't want to do an AU, maybe having her turn in the main rp. Maybe something serious enough that Ben would turn back to the light, yet Odette would turn her back on everything and everyone? Or maybe her turning the dark side is what causes Ben to reevaluate what the dark side really does to people when he sees how it has completely destroyed who Odette once was.
IDK, just an idea xD We don't have to go with it but I figured it'd be neat.

@AHeartlessNobody

Let see this to the end first. Then we can think about the future.

That song seems, to me at least, to fit better for, Rey, than Odette. I see Odette as being far too stubborn in the Light Side to even consider the option. Rey, though is a bit more on the fence at this point.

EDIT: Actually I see it going both ways. Kylo imagines, Odette to be dead, so I can see singing to Rey. Yet Odette isn't, so I can see her singing to Kylo. Which introduces a new and amazing connection for the group. I'm getting goosybumps just thinking about it lol.

@Renny

I finished up my talk between Odette, Leia, Han, and Chewy XD And then I time skipped with Rey and Odette. I hope its okay that in the vision of their younger selves I used young Ben XD If it's not than I can edit it lol. Just figured it would run more smoothly that way. I figure Ben could think this to be a dream or her Force Ghost, but they would be able to touch and talk in the vision. I'm also thinking that Odette could mention the note in the bag, perhaps that after her death Ben didn't look in it as everything in it had been hers and he couldn't bring himself to do so until she mentions it in the vision.

Anyway, let me know if I need to change anything XD

@AHeartlessNobody

You don't. I applaud the phenomenal work you put into that post. Bravo, bravo. lol.

Time had tempered and honed his understanding of the Force. There were visions that were sent by the Force, often messy and indecipherable, stressful and unkind. Then there were visions that invoked a specific emotion, for instance, longing... or regret. The canteen had slid from beneath him like a snatched rug, distorting the grimy pub into a memory. One that he had locked and buried away in the deepest, blackest parts of his mind. Only the Force could have drug it up, made him feel again.

His heart sped yet his face remained stoic as he grasped for straws. The song and Ode- the mistake from his past-snaked their way into his heart and yet, Snoke had taught him plenty, taught him to stay mercy and hesitance with the Dark Side when needed. One of those times were now. He filled his heart with a suffocating sooth while observing the scene. Vibrant grass swayed at the edge of a familiar lake, a single tree, sturdy and crooked provided shade. A young blonde girl sung a hopeful song, to a foolish boy.

Her song was echoed by a youthful duet further in time. A soft moment shared beneath a starry sky, warmed by a campfire. Kylo frowned, scowled really, at the farce. Surely it was the vestiges of Snoke's ploy. Another reminder of his failures.

Garbed in his shadowy cloak, he lost face, seeing the apparition of Odette... of his once-upon-of-treasure. My mistake... Kill the past.

Slowly he stood up from his chair. He looked around, this vision was stronger than the one cast by Snoke, the lake and grass was visible all around him. With a twang of menace, Kylo tossed back his hood, a smooth snarl on his cold, pale features. "What is this? whose work is this ... Luke's? no, Leia's." He thought less of his mother after a pause. It would have been impossible for her to put such a feat to action. Across time and space, using a memory she had never heard of or seen. Never. Impossible.

A heavy feeling shook his soul, cracked his facade, bringing a noticeable confusion to his face. "Odd?"

Anguish washed over him.
