"Most certainly. How does one ally themselves with the force without the ability to wield it"

Even though he could not proprely read images in the force, the waves sent by Joshep's grew menacing, painfull... Oppressive. He was transpored throughout a serie of emotions he could barely find the definitions in words for himself. Yet he felt a great loss that peirced his heart like countless needles, making him die a most painfull of death, over the course of many years from sorrow.
He felt cold... Colder then he had ever felt in his life his vision blackened; he was now standing in a void of frost as if death lurked by his side starring at him, past his material self into his very soul, being transported back to his own reality as the connection abruptly ended. Without having truly realized it himself, his finger had grew much closer to the ignition button of his lightsaber, not knowing of what he had experienced, simply being cautious in front of the unexpected.
He turned his eyes to his master from which the expression spoke of volume within the silence. He simply said nothing, as he did not understand what had happened to him nor to his friend...

"" *Ryu turned just in time to notice what had happened to Joseph. Who had wished he hadnt been seen* "Are you ok?" "Y-yes I'm fine just...rememebering..." *His voice trailed off and he did not meet the Shadourian Master's eyes nor anyone one else's. Instead he stared at the ground in front of him.* "You were saying Form Zero is not actually a form, but knowing when to draw a weapon correct master?"

"This is correct. Though to properly exercise Form Zero one must be in a state of mind that consists of maximum clairity. Which seems to be absent at the moment....'
*He was onto them, dispite their attempts to hide it. Though he would not force them to speak, for it was not his business to be involved in their personal feelings anyway. Though he was always a good listener*

*I say to the man.*
I can't use the force? Its allright maybe thats why i am resistant to all the mind powers the force users do. Also maybe thats why i am stronger and bigger then you all.

"To resist the power of the force is somthing that you have only experienced on a level of Medioctrity. To one trained to a state of Force Mastery, your mind will no long be so resistant, of this i can assure you. And although you claim to resist the force's unending power your mind still fails you, For your do not think, simple words of the mouth have confused you already. But you will learn in time..."
*He turned to the others, and smiled upon their realisation of Form Zero. And was now free to move onto the first form of Blade Combat, Shi-Cho."
As the weapons technology was further developed, the need for a form of combat arose. Thus Form I, also called Way of the Sarlacc, was born. Ancient sword-fighting traditions held key principles of blade combat that were implemented by early Jedi Masters in the rather basic technical tactics of Form I. Form I is simple, and consists of little more than basic sword play. Emphasising in nothing, thus Lacking in nothing, this form is very well rounded, and a suitable choice for all situations, though not nessicarily the best. Though do not make the mistake of underestamateing the form due to its simpicit nature. A Master of hte Shi-Cho form is potentially very deadly in combat, due to its lack of unstructtured movement. And its controled strikes and parries, the Shi-Cho form could esaily cut down an opponent By useing the "Strike and Parry" technique alone*

He had observed many times his brothers training themselves with their own master using his very form before they had gone away to seek their own destiny within the galaxy...
Having seen the pure silver blade of the Grand Master Damien, he well understood how deadly such a weapon could be, both in good and wrong hands...
He drove back his finger to the ignition button of his newly aquired weapon, still standing in silence, without a word or breath, letting the moments pass before finaly adding to the pressure in his grasp and slowly pushing the button down... A blade of a pure oceanic saphire erupting from the hilt along with a soft hum which resonated of a low octave within the training area. The silence electrifying as if a ceremony had been just played out...
He span the hilt around to his side, finding the right grip on the hilt, sending the tip of the blade to face downwards as he looked back to his master over his shoulder, the wind blowing through his ebony hairs giving him the aspect of the many statues dedicated to the old masters of the order. The image of a legendary hero...

*Ryu ran his fingers over the ignition button of his own saber, the feeling of it, was simply wonderfull as he held it firmly in his grap. He allowed a breif scilence to overtake the area, as he too applied some pressure to his index finger, which had slowly crawled up to meet the surface of the ignition button, and in it clicked, the saber ignited, and the effects of its blade seemingly showered those around him with a Moonlight Aura, that they all had locked deep within each and everyone of them.
He held his saber in a fasion, that he had normally held it in, the tip of the Lunaric White Blade pointed directly at the ground as he held it by his right side, just above the surface of the dirt. He decided that now, it was by hands on experience that they would learn*

"Ah, so it's time to duel..."
*Isii called back his saber, and ran his fingers over his hilt, and ignited the cool forest green blade, twirling it a few times with the rotating of the wrist, and then held it above his head, in what was called a "High Stance." Isii had learned this from Youngling training, and it was quite formidable, especially going over basics like Shii-Cho*

It was in this same stance his master had positioned himself and thus, to the very angle of the blade to the distance between both his feet, Veran positioned himself accordingly, a simetrical figure in front of his master... He left himself into the hands of the force he beleived in with such blindness that he no longer truly looked at the Shadourian master and the world itself but completly into a void of light, as if dimension was a single living entity of energy... It was the force.
As if by fate the very two stars in the galaxy which represented both Ryu and his apprentice shined like two distinctive suns... One of moonlight, another of a sky blue, echoing in unisson throughout the force, one waiting for the other to strike so that he may learn for himself the very definition of an attack from the very first of the fighting form... The Shii-cho.

*He brought his right arm slowly foward arching his blade upwards as he did so thus carving a semi circle in the ar as he brought his left hand slowly over to meet the upper section of the hilt, and it did so, the grip on the hilt of the saber was so perfectly secure yet free of movement resistance it was as if his hands were placed there the nurtureing hands of the force itself, which now flowed like an ocean throught the area, gently altering the actions and minds of the Master and his Apprentaces as they seeminlgy recorded and played-back his stance so as to think its possible strike points form every possible angle and position as he formed it into its completion. Which positioned his hands just above waste level the saber gripped gently betwen the grasp of his hands angleing the blade upwards to a point that would allow him to lean foward and touch it, with his left shoulder should he ever desier to lean in such a manner.
He allowed his Apprentaces time to think a step ahead of himself as he nodded firmly, signaling that the first attack was imminent and thus would arrive at them any given moment from now, though the question that subconsiously slipped into their minds was no longer a matter of "if" but "where? and when".
He stepped foward with his left foot, the speed of his step easily was noticable to the human eye, though to the wandering mind, it was a suprise attack. His left foot firmly planted on the ground and by doing so he shifted his weight to that foot, and that side of his body, therefore making him able to strike at the Apprentaces with a firm center of balance, making himself ready should the attack be deflected, or worse..not at all.
His hands rotated as if they were on a pivot, to form a ninety degree arc from where the origionally stood thus putting his Lunaric blade at a Horizontal bearing, He by applying pressure to his right hand and by witdrawing pressure on his left hand he caused the blade of the saber to sweep to the right, gently yet quite swiftly towards his Apprentaces who stood ready for his attack, The strike continued to sweep towards their right sides, in a simple strike of the Shi-Cho form.*

The simple movements yet proved to have so many more complex signification in a single moment of the stance then he could have anticipated; seeing his friends execute this very same patern of techniques had an completly different feel then to now have the very master of the blade executing it towards him...
He had decided to attack him on his protected side in an attempt to well calculate his own reactions towards such a simple attack...
They moved in a world without time, nor with boundaries he would soon learn to manipulate himself for the better goods of those around him... Rising his elbow as if to protect himself with his arm, the blade span in his palm yet without any of its grip had been loosen in any manner, holding the sword as he had learned to defend himself with a dagger, his first reflex as he had so many times done in order to protect himself from the vicious attacks of the predators of the planet and thus in a way, mastered his own style of fighting... Having not yet seen his own master defend himself, he could not learn how to proprely do so himself with the First Form of the lightsaber...
The blades collided in a thunderous roar throughout the courtyard, golden light erupting from te collision of the blade which quickly vanished like the lightning in the nightsky, as the apprenticed countered with the same attack his master had demonstrate. Pressing foward with an horizontal cut to his masters unprotected side.
