Nire moved slid closer, the defensive actions of Aresa giving plenty of time to prepare for the next attack. The master brought down a double side slash followed by an over head slam with one Blade. There was a way she could win in a few simple moves, but that path would be easy and lead to at least one of them being hurt. A lock with one saber and a slash with the other was almost impossible to block if one did not have two lightsabers. She could over hear some of the conversations from the other Knights and their Padawans. Many seemed to wonder 'Why Felucia?' But in all honesty, it did not matter why, just that it did. The Council sent them, so they would do their duty as Jedi.

"It can be difficult to know what secrets another could use to end you. That is why you must act fast of draw their secret out. Don't focus on what they could do, think about the whole picture, their technique and motives can betray their secrets." This was some of the better advice Niremon could give. Years of combat experience lent it's knowledge in full to Jedi teachings.

The Young one's moves seemed to indicate that they were attempting to show their sill and ability. The saber above her head easily protected in-case-of any attacks from above. Niremon spun as the Padawan leaped, meaning the two were still facing each other but at a closer distance. Nire used both blades in unison, attacking and blocking with both at the same time. Going for a swing at HER upper left and her upper right with speed and accuracy. The attack was followed with a forward slide.

"You must always be ready to shift from defense to offense in combat situations. Know the speed and movement of your opponent and you will find victory." The calm speaking seemed at contrast with the swift attacks. Use of the Force in this would be initiated by the Padawan at some point. The attacks were a mix of Shii-Cho and Makashi, steady footwork, some sweeping attacks and some attacks with little force behind them. The Other wold likely fall into Soresu, hold off until a weakness is presented and then strike at that. That is what any duel with a Soresu user was like, especially her old master Obi-Wan.

Veronica walked back with a plate piled with food and a cup of water. She began to dig in when she noticed Jen was still not doing well. "Hey Jen..." Her mouth still had some muffin in it, she swallowed and continued. "You doing all right? You are probably hungry aren't you? You can always feed off of me... I won't force you to do it... only if you want to." Respecting the wishes of Jen to not just force feed her. This respect would only go so far, Veronica wouldn't let her friend starve, but the guards would probably do it around now anyway.

Not only did the other guy just shrug her off, but now some chick with hair was trying to stop her! The hair come how managed to resist and block an attack from the razor sharp blade. She was about to use her other hand to grab a rune when the other hero came at her with a punch. "Sheesh, you heros! All I wanted to do was fight someone and destroy some pesky phones...but now both of you want to go? The more the merrier!" It took a few moments to come up with a strategy. She did a half twist and slammed the pommel of her free sword into the puncher's fist, sending him flying off directly at the hairy woman. She then dropped the entangled blade down with speed to get it free. After this whole maneuver, she took a giant leap back to get some distance.

Irene had done a similar feat back when she defeated the previous Grand Master. The man in his armor was well over 500 lbs ,(he was American) and Irene had managed to deflect several swings from him going all out. The hair presented a a problem she rarely encountered, it wasn't cut by her sword. Irene went back to what she was going to do before the other attacker came in. Irene sheathed a blade and reached into her bag of Runes, pulling out one that was glowing red. She touched the Rune to the edge of the Blades, causing the cutting edges to start glowing red. 'Perhaps a fire would be to effect against that hair.' She thought as she readied for another attack.

Niremon had been thinking about a brief spar. It was always nice to get some practice with dueling. "It is good to be humble, as you are, but it is also good to be humbled!" She turned to her apprentice. Finding some enjoyment in combat was a part of Nire's being. In wouldn't matter what the other Jedi thought about their combat before heading into a War zone. She readied in a standard Niman stance with her other hand in a defensive bar across her chest with the handle on the right and blade going left.

Sparring was not uncommon with Obi-Wan, but he was impossible to get to due to his mastery of Soresu. Her Jack-of-All-Trades use of Niman meant she could do many things well. It would be hard for some this close to the Dark Side to give in and possibly even harm their Padawan, but she was able to channel all of that into further control, precision, and power.

It was highly unlikely that they would encounter anyone an the planet who could use a lightsaber to greater effect then those inside that room. A more aggressive form would be used to get her partner ready for constant attack. A advantage of an aggressive style with lightsaber resistant blades meant that the entire Saber was a weapon, not just the blade.

It was good to see that there was another morning person, even if it was Kiiros. Veronica walked over to the food and started to assemble a plate. Various fruits and vegetables, meats and breads, all were open and good. "Good morning Kiiros! It is good to see we have... another morning person..." She trailed off as He was viciously attacking some bacon. He seemed much more frantic and excited then even Veronica could muster at this point in time.
I can do lost on an uncharted island if you still have any interest. PM me if you want to start.

Niremon felt the planet, felt the life on it, felt the Dark within it. She felt the blades of her Sabers, it had been a long time since she had to use them for fighting. She turned toward her Padawan. "It is uncertain why they attack the planet, it was not even aligned with the Republic. There is the trade routs and the resources. But I suspect that it has to do with the Dark Side residing within the Planet, surely you must feel it, see it as I do." Miraluka had such a strong connection to the Force that they could 'see' it eminating from everything. Amber had a background trace of darkness that was growing stronger as they got closer to landing.

Several teams of Clones ran past, all running to move into a formation to march onto the planet. One stopped by them, Him or It's 'name' was Charlie. "Good luck out there!" This Clone was particularly friendly. He had been saved by Niremon at the end of The First Battle of Geonosis. A Crab Droid was about to kill him when she stepped in and deflected the shot.

Nire began to walk around, feeling the various parts of the ship to prepare for her duty. "You preformed admirably on your combat exams, you will be fine." Her voice was calm and focused. She force pulled her Lightsabers to her hands and lit them, them purple energy crackling in the air. "But to be safe, you should do a few practice swings to get re-acclimated." Niremon did a few Makashi style thrusts towards an imaginary foe who had the strong resemblance of air on an assault cruiser.

veronica felt a rumble that must have been audible to the entire facility. "Hey guards! What do we get to eat?" Veronica had never been on a hih-caloric- diet, but some pizza yesterday was still some of the least she had had in a long time. Everyone else seemed to be like zombies, tired and sluggish. It was always astonishing how people could be so tired after just resting. She was smiling though, her hair was drying exceedingly fast due to some Infrared rays. Her fingers were running through her hair as she interacted with the others she would be on a mission with that day.
