[T'Sal]

When T’sal sees the disk she concentrates and tries to determine the exact looking when she put it.

((Check: 8 = 5 Force Level + 3 Vision -- Do not know if looking and remembering are 2 checks.))

“We are here to investigate these Jedi ruins, so we want to take a look everywhere.

Is that a Jedi cloak? With the yellow and blue it looks nice. I have not seen that before.

You seem to know more. Would you like to share some knowledge? Then we are ready quickly, right?”

T’sal looks interested at the women. She tries to put up a little childish act by slowly swinging her legs front and back in the chair.

If T’sal hears the message from Trigiel she scratches left.

((OOC: I had the idea of sign language some time, but had not put it on the wik yet. (it is now on it)))

[Mysterious Woman (mask of Evermourne)]

Mysterious Woman

T'sal looks at the mysterious woman putting away her disk. But it can not be determined on its location since her back was turned to the party. T'sal hears Fecta's message and softly scratches her ear in conformation of the message.

“We are here to investigate these Jedi ruins, so we want to take a look everywhere. Is that a Jedi cloak? With the yellow and blue it looks nice. I have not seen that before. You seem to know more. Would you like to share some knowledge? Then we are ready quickly, right?” T'sal asks the woman with a somewhat childish tone.

The woman seems to eye the party down. Slowly shacking her head in confusion
"You come too my little.... Establishment and make comments on how what I'm wearing? The folly of youth.
You however. Cyborg. Your... design is quite intriguing. But sadly. Time is pressed." The woman reaches into her cloak and holds out a little device in front of her. And puts it away after a few moments

"Your replies have not really given me anything. Investigate these ruins you say? I kinda found that implied because I doubt you are here to play hide and seek. Though I can certainly say that his place was not a ruin. Sadly the little sand diggers are to blame for a.. Suddenly relocation. But let's not drift off further. It is not hard for me to tell you two are padawans. You seem a promising lot but not there quite yet. Answer me this and I shall answer one question in your favour".

The woman walks up to the two to examine them closely. She stops only a couple of steps away from the still standing Fecta. Fecta can see her big dark eyes now. It seems there are 1 or 2 scars to be seen on her cheeks.

"Being young-lings you are being trained at that little.... Jedi temple of yours. Meaning you two live by the verse of the Jedi. Would you be so kind as to recite the verse for me. And I shall reward you two for it"

((OOC: To clarify on my question. With the verse I mean that verse about the force that the Jedi and Sith have. There is no emotion; there is peace. being the first of the verse. If you are going to answer fill in the rest of this verse. There is a bonus if you do it without internet use. I can't check that of course. But I will take your word for it if you happen to know this verse. :)))

[Fecta Trigiel]

Before Trigiel answered, he looked around for any possible escape routes. If the woman would run, he wanted to know her escape options. The same goes for when he had to escape.
((Check: 9 = 4 Force Level + 5 Vision -- ))

"You speak in riddles, woman. You say replies but my youngling is the only one who has spoken, and bluntly out of her term too.

What is this ghost you hear but is not there? Or does the solitude had a bad influence on your common intergalactic?"

((OOC: BTW, my race is Fecta, name is Trigiel. Saying 'Fecta can see her...' is the same as: 'human can see...' You can check the Teprogrenaian Consensus page of the wiki for their name scheme.

2nd note, I do not know the verse by head, so I need the internet))

[T'Sal]

If you want something you have to give something in return. Trigiel is clearly making a hard statement. But as the women already negated multiple questions T’sal sees no other option as to give her what she wants, so they would get some information at least. Sometimes you have to cooperate.

T’sal softly speaks the verses. (so you can just hear it)

“'There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.''

Afterwards she looks to Trigiel with a look of sorry but I had to. He might not like it, but T’sal wants to break the stale-mate.

T’sal also uses the force to get an estimation of how strong the force is with the women.
((Check: 10 = 5 Force Level + 5 Intuition -- ))

((OOC: I had to look it up. I knew the content but not the words. Maybe good to know how the FWURG jedi order is (same as ep 1?)))

[Mysterious Woman (mask of Evermourne)]

Mysterious Woman

As Trigiel is looking around the room looking for any routes out of here it is hard to miss them. the path from whence they came still remains open as is the same kind of pathway on the other side of the hall. the hallways has a lot more doors but it can not be determined at this point where they lead to.


"You speak in riddles, woman. You say replies but my youngling is the only one who has spoken, and bluntly out of her term too. What is this ghost you hear but is not there? Or does the solitude had a bad influence on your common intergalactic?" Trigiel spoks in harsh words.

The woman looks at Trigiel with a fierceness in her eyes. she was about to open her mouth but was stilled because of a soft whisper coming from the chairs.

“'There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.''
T'sal softly speaks while trying to examine the woman more closely. The extend of how strong is precisely can not be said at this point. but a massive aura of the force can be felt around this particular woman.

The woman smiled again and raises her head toward Trigiel.
"You jump to conclusions mister cyborg. I might almost say you being ignorant. I said replies since your friend here asked multiple questions. Besides I never mentioned anything about being alone now did I? As your friend recited so neatly.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. Though I have the idea you rather stay ignorant. Even more so for calling her your youngling. You will be better off by thinking I know better then that. I would be disappointed really if your party was not so.... balanced"

To woman turned away from Fecta Trigiel and move towards the chairs and T'sal.
"Your have answered truly dear child. Therefor you can ask me anything you like and I shall answer."

((OOC: As you are probbly aware of the verse and timeline discussion is well underway. i thank you both for your honesty regarding the verse. i did not expect you to know it hence why i had a specific bonus for it if you happened to. For Fecta Trigiel I had missed the name scheme and therefore I read Fecta being your first name. I shall improve this in the future.Last people might wonder why I repeat posts into my own. that is just because something as dynamic as talk happens at " real time" and I find that re-using the chats people make into my own makes it easier to put speech into a timeline of the current events if I wanted to act between the 2 posts.))

[T'Sal]

"I have two questions.

First, could you tell us about this temple and that disc?
Second, about the Jedi order you belong to and yourself?"

((OOC: short post, but I have to go))

[Fecta Trigiel]

Trigiel waited until the mysterious woman gave her explanation to T'sal.

[Malarika]

"I have two questions. First, could you tell us about this temple and that disc? Second, about the Jedi order you belong to and yourself?" T’sal asked the mysterious woman.

The woman smiled and slowly removed her hood. A dark intense face looked at the party revealing the scars of her cheeks that seemed deeper then first thought.

“Well my name is Malarika. And you two have stumbled on my little starter village of Porila. This temple was build to house the many people who followed me a long time ago to get away from the single minded idea's from the jedi. That verse was branded on us from when we ourself were youth. The more I ventured into the universe on missions the more I found out about different views. When I tried to talk to the masters of old at the temples there was no changing their methods. Needles to say I left and it was from that moment I realised just how much people agreed with me."

Malarika's anger could be felt throughout the room.

"But of course. It seems the old geezers do not take kindly to people who disagree with them. Let alone leave the order. They send many people to talk me into going back on my knees. After much refusing their words get transformed into actions and they tried to take me out. We moved and formed this village inside this mountain. and for a long while we were left alone. But now that your little sand digger group have found us I suppose we must abandon our life's here for I can still not be found just like that."

Malarika turns around and walks towards the computer once more.

"The little disk was just some final information I needed to erase from our systems here so you wont be on our tail just as soon as I leave to join back the others. Now I must say it was nice to talk to some of the... Jedi... But sadly I'm afraid that I will have to go. As a last piece of advice I suggest you go back to your little digger friends. I might of called some... People to come pick them up." Malarika had a wicked grin on her face.

As Malarika presses a few buttons the screen turns black once again and a voice pops up from the computer , Message send , rings throughout the silent room.

"There we go. Now I suppose I could wish you luck but that would suggest I would actually care what happens here anymore. Till we might meet again".

Malarika starts to walk across the room towards the exit opposite from the entrance the party entered before.

[Fecta Trigiel]

Trigiel runs and took a jump to land between her and the exit. in his jump he send a quick warning to Kura'ran, in the hope it comes through: "Warning, enemies are inbound!"

"Not so fast," he said looking straight to Malarika, "not only are your methods really strange, but you also made a very big mistake!" The flaps on the head of the cyborg where widely extended.

"The order thought you were dead, and thus had abandoned the search of you. Now they know you still exist and survived hundreds of years pretty well. Give us the data and they have no reason to believe you live and to pursue you!"

He quickly added: "And please call of your... friends, as any bloodshed is totally unnecessary."

[Malarika]

Malarika stand still as the cyborg being jumps before her between her and her path. as Fecta Trigiel shouts out his words to her she becomes very angry at this person.

"You are starting to get on my nerves. I have way more important things to do then to listen to your little tantrum. I do not care if they want to hunt me anymore. I am fed up with everything linked to the order and I don't care how much time has passed. they will know soon. soon enough!"

she clenches her hands into fists. her rampaging aura can be felt through out the room. it makes the party feel taken back.

"Now listen here BOY! I suggest you get out of my way before I lose my patience. This is your last chance"

without delay Malarika walks around Fecta Trigiel once again trying to walk towards the exit.

[T'Sal]

T’sal listens carefully to Malarika’s story. This was quite intriguing. They had learned of the dark side of the force and the Sith, but this seemed to be something else. She wants to hear more about the story, but unfortunately Malarika seemed to be in a hurry.

When Malarika mentioned that she had set someone on the dig team T’sal gets worried. It is getting serious. Malarika seemed confident in her plan as she did seem to bother that two padawans know about her existence. But maybe she would now.

T'sal makes a sign to S4 to get the transmitter. While Malarika starts to move away and turn her back on them T’sal grabs the transmitter. She looks to find a spot put in and then she sees Trigiel coming into action. He is a real man for action and T’sal is actually glad that he draws Malarika’s attention away. She stands up and walks towards them and uses her telekinesis to put the transmitter into Malarika’s robes. T’sal makes a short sign to S4 to get ready to leave the way they had come.

((Check: 8 = 5 Force Level + 3 Vision -- To find a good spot for the transmitter))
((Check: 11 = 5 Force Level + 5 Intuition + 1 Stealth -- To do it stealthy so she does not notice.))
((Check: 10 = 5 Force Level + 4 Energy + 1 Telekinesis -- to put the transmitter there.))

Trigiel is quite a hot-headed and T’sal was not glad with the details he is giving to Malarika. But she in return gives also some info as well. T’sal does not want that Malarika would lose her temper. A jedi master can easily defeat two padawant. T’sal wanted to bring this information to the jedi council and did not want that Trigiel or Kura'ran to get hurt.

“Sending someone on archeologist is not nice.” T’sal says to Malarika. "I would love to help and solve the conflict peacefully, but it seems you are not interested in it after all that has happened.”

T’sal looks to Trigiel “Let her pass, she is a jedi master. I think we can use our strength better to help the others.”

T’sal hopes that Trigiel does not do anything reckless. She would gladly back him up, but this could become quite tough. She readies herself for action.

((OOC: I had trainings weekend (camp), so that's why I am late.
Edit, forgot the stealth check))

[Fecta Trigiel]

Trigiel knew both of them probably couldn't defeat Malarika, but then again, they didn't need to. Al he wanted was the data disk. Just at the moment he wanted to draw his lightsaber, he saw T'sal making her move. Drawing lightsabers now only would make Malarika more alert, and that might make her notice T'sal. Instead, Trigiel needed to stall her a little further, to give T'sal a little more time...

"You know what, Malarika, go! Run! Just as you did in the past. Go run as you always did. I now understand why the order abandoned you, as you are not even worth my time! You are just scared," His last words did he spoke very softly, almost whispering, "You are just a scared, little, girl."

[Malarika]

While Malarika is distracted by Fecta Trigiel T'sal gently moves her transmitter under a crack of Malarika's collar. The moment it lands on her she seems to shift as if she noticed something. But for now it appears the distraction of anger with Fecta Trigiel served it's purpose.

"You know what, Malarika, go! Run! Just as you did in the past. Go run as you always did. I now understand why the order abandoned you, as you are not even worth my time! You are just scared," His last words did he spoke very softly, almost whispering, "You are just a scared, little, girl."

Without warning and with no time to react in anyway. A wave of force slams Fecta Trigiel against the nearest wall and holds T'sal and S4 in place. The sensation of her power is phenomenal and renders the party unable to move or speak. Such anger. While the two padanwans struggle to release themselfs of this terrible grip. Malarika stands unmoved. She did not even lift a finger to get this done.
Malarika slowly turns towards Fecta Trigiel and walks over to him very slowly. With a good amount of time between each step. As fecta watching Malarika slowly get closer. It feels like death itself walks towards him. Malarika grabs her lightsaber and turns it on. Holding it into the air pointed towards Fecta Trigiel.

"Run? Scared? O dear boy you are very...very wrong. You have no idea what it is to be... truly.. afraid." Malarika said cold as ice. So coldly it hit the two padawans in their soul.

Malarika stands under Fecta now while holding him tight against the wall. The lightsaber rests next to Fecta Trigiel's face. This makes sure Fecta feels the heat coming from the saber.

"You.. are nothing.. Your friend.. is nothing. Even your entire Union is nothing."

Slowly but accurately the saber follows the outline of Fecta Trigiel's body. making sure the heat can be felt everywhere.
"I could end it right now. You and your sweet little girly friend here. A single thought to end everything. The Order would never know. those people on the surface. Will never know. and you two will be forgotten. As two little insects someone stepped on"

Malarika rests her saber in front of Fecta Trigiels chest area. Fecta Trigiel and T'sal feel forced to closed their eyes as she makes her strike.

A deadly silence. As Fecta Trigiel and T'sal open their eyes a small scratch can been seen on Fecta's torso. It is really minor what can be repaired in seconds. but the sensation of the strike rings through his very essence.

"Sadly for me though. You two serve a purpose here. For I am not running. O no no no. I am coming towards them. Each and everyone of them. I want you two to tell them you saw me. I want you to relay what happened here. I want you two... to let them feel your fear. For I shall bring it to them soon enough. And that is the only reason you are still here.... boy."

The lightsaber turns off. And slowly she lowers her hand again. As slowly as she came she turns around and walks back towards her intended exit.

"Go serve your purpose. Live in Fear and know that I will be coming for all of you. You two included."

slowly she turns her head and looks at Fecta Trigiel still hanging on the wall. It can not be explained but as Trigiel stared back into Malarika's eyes. they seem to be dark red.
"Especially you... little...boy"

She turns away again facing her exit and raises her arm next to her on shoulder height.
"Now GET OUT!" she yells out and swings her arm backwards. A massive force launches Fecta Trigiel,T'sal and S4 out the exit from whence they came. As the two padawans sit up all they can see of her is that she walks out the door engulfed in a small reddish aura. And the door closes behind her.

The party tries to recover from the entire ordeal they get stirred up by a transmission coming from Kura'ran
"Jed.... Come i.... There are ene..... Need Help!...."
A lot of static is blurring the communication once again.
But one thing is clear.


Malarika's friends have arrived.

[Fecta Trigiel]

Trigiel was startled for a moment, how did she... what did she... no, it didn't matter for the moment. His first thought was to follow her, to see where the door leads to. But that would be just stupid given her power. Besides, Kura'ran was in trouble. He jumped up and started to run back, back on the stairs, back through the small hallway, back past all the torches. When he and T'sal where back in the study room, he slammed the secret door back in its place with a large force push and hoped for the main door to open.

[T'Sal]

When Trigiel agitated Malarika more T’sal looks worried. She hoped that Trigiel would not go to far. Alas, he hit the mark quite well. Unable to do anything she sees how Trigiel is slammed against the wall and Malarika’s ligthsaber goes around it. T’sal is afraid as she never had been.

Malarika is very powerfull, T’sal has never seen a jedi master do something like things. After getting thrown away, T’sal gets to her feet quickly. She checks how S4 is doing and together they start running upstairs to the office.

“Trigiel, nice distraction, but do not do this again!!!!!!! Lucky, Malarika had plans for us and was quite talkative.

Let’s go help Kura’ran and the others.”

She grabs her ligthsaber and gets ready.

[Evermourne]

As the two padawans run up the stairs back into Malarika's office Fecta Trigiel quickly closes the secret door behind them. They exchange quick words and glances and make ready to step out back towards the scientist camp but before they made it out the office they are shaken in place

A strong quake shakes the building around and the two padawan's almost lose their standing. It felt like something really big suddenly hit the planet. Distant screams can be heard all around from the scientist from far away and nearby.

[T'Sal]

“Kura'ran we are coming, we just left the office.

Could you tell us what is going on? We did not receive your last call completely. ”

Now that they were out, T’sal hoped they could communicate freely again with the others and get an idea what is going on.

As there were screams nearby, she instructed S4 to search for life-signs. If there was someone nearby in danger they could help.

T’sal run as fast as she can towards the camp, but she keeps an eye on her surroundings as there were enemies somewhere.

[Fecta Trigiel]

"I hope they don't throw too big things on our heads, they are so hard to cut."

Trigiel ran as fast as he could to the outside, clearly they were needed there. At the same time he also kept an eye around to prevent being ambushed.
((Check: 9 = 4 Force Level + 5 Vision -- Sensitive optics: Infra red, ultra violet, night vision, zoom.))

[Evermourne]

While the two padawans run back through the narrow hallways T'sal calls for the communication while Fecta Trigiel keeps a keen eye out for any dangers. As of this moment there seems to be no reply of the leading scientist. What the cause might be is uncertain at this point.

S4 starts to give signals that nearby life signs have been found at is pinpointed around one of the upcoming corners.
As the party near the corner Fecta Trigiel peaks around the corner to assess the situation.
It seems there are 2 men armed with large blaster rifles are discussion something. at their feet lies a man on the ground which can be identified as one of the scientists. smoke can be seen rising up from the back of the man.

it seems they do not notice the party as of now.

[T'Sal]

When Trigiel tells T’sal what around the corner is, she looks a bit surprise. T’sal then whispers to Trigiel.

“Let’s check out the enemy. We can surprise them and destroy their guns. Maybe we can then get some information from them.”

T’sal looks to Trigiel. She knows he likes action, but getting to know the enemy would help them further as there will be probably more at the camp.

“S4 wait here until I call you. When the situation is under control you can come out and we can see how injured the scientist is.”

T’sal does not like the idea of killing, up until now she has only sliced droids. She wants to keep it like that, but depending on the situation she might have to kill and show no mercy. The live of the Kura’ran and the other archeologist are at stake.

[Fecta Trigiel]

T'sal was right about Trigiel, at this moment he would really love to jump on them and slice their throats, but that was not the smartest move to make at this moment, and the cyborg knew that.

"Okay," his vocalator was turned very softly, "We will silently storm them on my mark, disable them before they can do anything and ask who they are and what they want. You take the right, I take the left."

Trigiel moved close towards the corner, and when T'sal was also ready, he gave a clear handsignal to move in. He jumped across the hallway, used the wall as a step to jump towards the left guard and grabbed him in mid flight. He used his speed bring the guard of balance and used the guard as a shield between him and the other guard. At the same time the short lightsaber shoved out his left arm pocket into his left hand, and a bright white blade appeared very close the face of the person he had in his grab, but he didn't used it yet as he had questions. ((Check: 10 = 4 Force Level + 4 Fitness + 1 Athletics + 1 Force Jump -- ))

If his and T'sals move were successful he turned the face of the man towards him and stared right into his face. His headlight was turned bright red and his headflaps were widely extended. His voice was one of an very angry cyborg: "Who are you and what do you want?" He spoke.

[T'Sal]

T’sal sneaks towards the corner and she grabs her light sabers. She waits for Trigiel signal. As he jumps high across the hallway, T’sal makes a low jump moving in Trigiels shadow. She comes in from below in between the two guys. She surprises them and her ligtsaber flashes at the guns destroying them.
((Check: 10 = 5 Force Level + 3 Fitness + 1 Stealth + 1 Force Jump -- ))

When the right guy lets go of his weapon as it falls apart she grabs his left arm with her left hand ducks under it and moves it behind his back. If successfull in T’sal right arm her green light saber buzzes as she puts it in front of his throat. The guy can go nowhere with his arm on his back and T’sal standing behind him.
((Check: 8 = 5 Force Level + 3 Strength -- Using the suus mahna martial arts, to grab the rigth guy))

[Mandalorian Soldier (mask of Evermourne)]

Mandalorian Soldier

The two padawans move in swiftly with the element of surprise on their side. The two soldiers tried to raise up their blasters to stop the attack but the padawans where to quick. The other soldiers yelled in his comms-unit but could not manage more then a few words.

The soldiers where subdued by the padawans and Fecta Trigiel asks his question. His voice was one of an very angry cyborg: "Who are you and what do you want?" He spoke.

"I can ask you the same thing. Heh. Don't think for a moment I am going to say anything to you."

[T'Sal]

T’sal uses telekinesis to destroy their com-units, so the others would not be listening in. These guys were playing hard being professionals, but maybe the force would be more persuading. Putting up a sweet smile T’sal says:

“You are good guys so you will talk to us right? Tell us everything, pleaaasseee.”

((Check: 10 = 5 Force Level + + 4 Energy + 1 Telekinesis -- To disable com-units. Either removing or crushing it.))

((Check: 10 = 5 Force Level + 4 Energy + 1 Mind Trick -- On both soldiers to make them talk.))

[Fecta Trigiel]

Trigiel witnessed T'sal trying to destroy their comm links, and thought that to be a very clever idea. He made a estimation of where the comm was in the helmet of the soldier, and then he poked his lightsaber in there to destroy the unit, but was careful enough to bring no harm to the soldier. ((Check: 11 = 4 Force Level + 5 Vision + 2 Mechanical Engineer -- ))

After T'sal did her mind trick, Trigiel waited to witness the result. If the trick did not work, he started to question them himself: "did you kill this scientist?" After their answer, he asked: "Give me a very good reason to let you live."

If the mind trick of T'sal worked, Trigiel did nothing.
