Vishnu's Training

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*The dark room seems void of all items save the floor. The walls seem as if they are from an ancient time and barely holding together. Upon the floor there are scortch marks from a battle. If they were to be investigated thoroughly, one would see that they weren't that old...only a few years. It was this room he felt the pull to enter. Candlelight flickered dimly in the old room.*

[Pele]

Vishnu entered the dark room and liked it already, it fit him. He liked the shadows, the darkness, and the things that made it look old. Vishnu entered the room and felt calm, like he could relax. But this was not the time for relaxing and Vishnu kept his head up as he walked into the room and tried to get the feel for everything around. He felt the light of the candle lights and he ignored it and looked around and waited for his training to start.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She had been waiting in the darkness the whole time. Her cloak was pulled up hiding all of her face minus her eyes. She was too well hidden to have been seen by him, yet a force user who was strong could have sensed her. She had to know what she was dealing with in her apprentice. Rajani kept him waiting for a time and only when his patience seemed to falter did she step out of the shadows and into the dimly lit room.*

"All of your weapons and armor take off and place in the corner. You'll have no need of them for a time."

[Pele]

Vishnu was surprised to see her come out of the darkness but he nodded and started taking off his chest plate. Vishnu removed hsi chest plate, his 2 arm plates, his lightsaber, and a small black dagger. He then slowly placed the items in the corner and returned back to where he had been. His heart was anxious to find out what was going to happen and he wanted to see what it really took to become a full Dark Jedi.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She called the lightsaber to her grip and held it in her open palm while looking at him.*

"Where did you acquire such a thing?"

[Pele]

Vishnu turned his head away for a second. he did not like remembering his past, but he shut them out and responded.

"It was given to me by my father as present during my training." Vishnu said staring at the lightsaber and its horrible past.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She raised an eyebrow at her apprentice's struggle with the past. This could be useful further down the road.*

"I see. Was he a jedi?"

*His moment of weakness had allowed her time to probe his mind briefly finding the answer out for herself. In his struggle with the past, he would find strength for later. She counted on this.*

[Pele]

"No he despised the jedi like us." Vishnu said exiting the memory of his father.

Soon the memories began to fade, and Vishnu slowly was fixed back into reality a he stared away from the lightsaber and back to his master.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She decided to test him and see how connected he was to his father. She clipped it to her belt and smiled at him.*

"Good. Then he won't mind me taking it from you, either."

*The smile of satisfaction was upon her lips. How would he react to this taunting?*

[Pele]

Vishnu's eyes twitched as he heard the words, what was she trying to do? Taking away a lightsaber was an unusual thing unless it was a prize after killing soemone.

"You'd be helping me but why do you want to take it?" Vishnu said looking at her curoisly if this was some part of his training.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She let the smile fade as she stepped towards him menacingly.*

"Do not question your master. Sit! and open your mind. Your training starts now."

[Pele]

Vishnu did not flinch or step back as she took a step closer and he stood there quiet. After she spoke Vishnu wanted to say something but he didn't as he sat on the cold ground. Vishnu then closed his eyes and began to clear his head of all the thoguhts he had just had, the memories, the lightsaber, all of them began emptying out of his head as he sat there. Now his training would begin.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She closed her own eyes and tried to reach into his mind to guide him through the next steps. Her voice when it spoke was almost lulling as she instructed him on his first exercise.*

"Remember the exact placement of every candlelabra in this room. Feel the Force flowing around the room and through your own body. For the force flows through all things and is created by living things. Feel it and let go of your previous misconceptions. Feel only the force."

[Pele]

Vishnu's whole body almost fell into a meditation stance and he began as he was told making his total mind only feel that of the force. He let the force flow threw him and left no barriers up and did as she said. Now that he had done this the force seemed to take away all his thoguhts and as she said all his "misconceptions"" as they left him making him feel almost tranquil. Vishnu felt his whole body go into it and once he did this he let it and knew this feeling was the one he wanted.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*He was learning quickly. She decided to show him another side of the Force the Jedi hardly show.*

"Feel the Force flowing through your muscles. It is this that makes you strong. Physical training is always stressed and you will be put through rigorous training, but it is the force flowing through you that can make you stronger than the average person. Open your eyes and rise before me, my apprentice."

*There was delight in her eyes to truly test out his skills and capabilities.*
