Remer vs. Arael

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She tries to concentrate blocking her mind as his form moves towards her with such speed she has to flip away from him. She flips backwards about 3 times and comes up to point her hand out and forces the force particles in front of his body to condense and push out against his body hoping to take him down. The form he was using was one she hadn't learned or was familiar with.*

[Aradan Ather]

Remer was stopped for his barrage of moves, as the push had nearly made him drop his saber.

"Hmm..." Remer muttered to himself, "I should be more careful..."

Remer backed up a bit, allowing Arael an attack as he held his saber in a defensive position.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She moved slowly towards him circling him for a moment as she focused in closing her mind to him. After doing so, she moves forward feigning left as she spins and pulls her blade back sweeping low to his right towards his ankles.*

[Aradan Ather]

Remer soon found out that he could no longer probe her mind, nodding respectingly.

He now had to depend on pure reflex, and the force. Remer moved quickly, the force guiding his actions and telling him not to fall for the feint. Instead, he flipped over Arael and landed squarely behind her.

"Good, very good." Remer said, backing up a few steps. "Again."

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She spins around seeing him behind her and blocks her mind again. She spins left first trying to strike as his right side and then spins again to his left side hoping to strike both sides of him.*

[Aradan Ather]

Remer saw the blur of the lightsaber and let the force to guide him, suddenly doing a sideways splits, barely avoiding the moves of Arael's saber. He then brought his legs together and around like a whirlwind, sweep kicking Arael as soon as he could get a good aim.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She takes one of his kicks and grunts in pain as his kick connects to her body. She falls backwards hard and drops her lightsaber. Arael rolls over slowly and tries to get to her feet again.*

[Aradan Ather]

Remer winced a little as if he himself had taken the hit, perhaps he was being to hard on her. He got to his feet and backed up a bit, giving Arael the time to recover and strike.

In his mind he knew that a Sith would never do this, but she was already progressing fairly quickly. Remer felt that he shouldn't push her.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She gets to her feet and stretches her arms a little after moving her head right and left to work out the crick in it. Reaching her hand out, her lightsaber obediantly comes into her hand as it ignites and she jumps through the air with her feet outward ready to kick at him. She kicks first and then pulls her feet back down bringing her saber down in a diagonal downward swipe across his chest.*

[Aradan Ather]

Remer felt the force resonate through the room as Arael moved through the air. He took it and nutured it, allowing it to pulse through him like a calm lake. He then brought his arm up without looking, blocking the kick and allowing the momentum to make his handspring backwards, barely avoiding the swing.

"You fight with skill, I can give you that." Remer said, backing up a few steps again, "But you are not using the force as your ally. At least not much."

Remer paused for a moment.

"You block me out, yes, but with each of your attacks, you depend on your own skill. Reach to the force, allow it to guide your moves."

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She lands in front of him and backs away a little giving him some space. Her frustration level was rising. Reaching for the Force, she felt it's soothing flow and pushed the frustration back. Her hand moved the piece of hair that had fallen in front of her face behind her ear. Calling upon the force, she plans her next attack. Keeping her eyes closed, she moves forward again planting her left foot as she swings her right blade upwards at his left side then swings to her right out of his path.*

[Aradan Ather]

Remer quickly moved to avoid both hits, flipping backwards a couple feet. Arael was getting better, the last two attacks were fast and unexpected.

"Good!" was all Remer said, before lashing out in Makashi, manevuring her blade into a saber lock.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

OOC: Read it again. I did attack and then swung out of the way before you could counterattack

*She tried to pull her saber out of the lock and brought her foot up to push him away. Her other hand started to reach for her ald'haera.*
