Vherox watched as the Kevin went right through the clone. Just as he thought. It was intangible, but then it surprised Vherox to see the clone actually kick Kevin and hit him. He began thinking about it now. When the clone mentioned telekinetic powers again it made sense. The clone itself was just an intangible copy made to fool the optical sensory of an opponent, and then attacks such as force push are used to cause an impact on the opponent so they would truly believe it to be a real opponent. Clever.
Vherox looked over at Master Hatori as he told him to make an attempt at creating a shadow clone and use it to attack him. He nodded and began to focus his force. He knew the basics of the Jedi mind trick, but he did not know the basics of this. He pictured himself in his head, then attempting to use telepathy he tried relaying the image to Master Hatori with the intent of causing it to reach his optical sensory so he would see two of him.

Nero laughed under his breath as he was asked to attack Hatori with a shadow clone, and as he laughed Nero created the illutoin that Hitoris own shadow stood up from behind him, the clone swung its blade at Hatori's side as Nero use telekinesis to simulate the effect the blade would have on Hatori's side.

Hatori himself was still sitting in from of the shrine with his eyes closed in quiet meditation. When Nero attempted to swing a lightsaber at him Hatori simply used his own telekinesis to anchor himself in place. The impact Nero delivered created a few cracks in the sand covering Hatori's body which quickly filled in.
"Good," Hatori's clone commented as Nero went right for the throat, "The key to defeating a shadow clone is ignoring the illusions and attacking the source. But you wont defeat anything with a blunt blade..." Hatori also noticed an out put of energy by Vherox. No doubt an attempt to alter his sight and create a shadow clone of his own, "although..." The real Hatori suddenly interjected, "the most effective way to ignore the illusions is to simply remove your sense of sight from the equation... and act on instinct. It is important to remain calm and under control at all times when dealing with this sort of combat so not to be caught in an illusion yourself."

Vherox had stopped his attempt to listen to Hatori. "It all makes perfect sense. I figured before by closing my eyes that I would be able to distinguish the real you and the clone, because I assumed that the clone would not affect my ability to sense the force." He observed the clone a bit more.
"The clone however does serve as an excellent distraction, even if only for a mere few seconds that it is succesful." He waited to hear what Hatori had to say further on the subject.

Kevin started to focus. He wanted to learn make shadow clone, so he was focusing.
Now Kevin pictured himself in his mind, shadow behind of him started to move. Kevin wasn't sure did it move just in his mind or did it move really.

The real Hatori opened his eyes, still sitting in place by the shrine. He opened his eyes so that he could see how his students were progressing. They seemed to have a hold on the illusion part of the technique, but this was only half of it.
"Even with your eyes closed, Telekinetic power is no illusion. Shadow Clones can still cause very real damage," Hatori said, "Though to make your clone truly difficult for your opponent to ignore you will need to be able to deal potentially lethal blows...."
Hatori's clone reached into its robe, pulling out its lightsaber and appearing to ignite it, its green blade glowing softly at his side. The real Hatori extended his arm which seemed to stretch out unnaturally towards his clone, the low hiss of flowing sand could be heard as his arm grew, sand steadily pouring off it. The clone then suddenly hacked at the arm with his lightsaber, making a clean cut severing Hatori's hand which turned to sand as it caught the breeze and blew away.
"Now what you've just witnessed is no illusion," Hatori said as his arm retracted back to its normal size, a new hand forming from the sand, "An illusionary lightsaber can be made to cut using telekinesis, but it requires a very high level of power. To begin, I want you all to simply sit like I am and quiet your minds. With the force, size does not matter. The only limits placed on the force are those applied in your own mind. Focus now... focus on the very very small, too small even to be seen. The molecules of air that are all around us..."

Nero did as Hatori said and sat down like he did and began to meditate focusing on the small things around him form the air molecules to the things in the earth on which he sat, as he continued to meditate sand fell from his body and flouted in the around where he sat createing a thin layer of fog around him.

As Rune burst out of hyperspace he almost crashed into the side of the mountain range that was present, narrowly avoiding it with some quick maneuvering. Realizing soon enough he would not be able to land safely on the peak of the mountain chain he had to set the ship down at the gorge; and either climb it or take his speeder bike up the mountain. Sitting the ship down carefully he exited via the loading ramp. " I hope the Jedi are here..." Rune said to himself. He decided that he would climb the mountain on his own without the speeder bike. He began he accent.

What was left here was but a shadow of the people who came before Rune. Finding nothing he came in search of he departed from this world. Exiting the atmosphere, he set coordinates for the mid-rim...Not exactly sure where he would end up, he hit the hyperspace coordinates and jumped to lightspeed.

Kevin meditated. He focused on the small things on air molecules. he did what Hatori told to do.

Nik trudged along the land of Alderaan. So many things passed through his mind, but nothing was more prevalent than the need for a teacher, someone who could show him how to manipulate the force. Nik was getting pretty desparate, even if it meant learning from a sith...

In the abandoned Jedi Temple high atop the peaks of Alderaan, Hatori sat in silent meditation awaiting orders from his master. The pagoda that once stood as a memorial to the four Jedi Knights who founded the order on Coruscant was now nothing more then burnt tinder caked with ice and snow. Despite the sharp cold and relentless winds outside Hatori remained in meditation until a new comer wandered into the Temple.
"You have come a long way, Jedi," Hatori began, keeping his eyes closed. He could feel the force was with this person, but his mind was somewhat clouded, "such a remote and barren location... I hope you've found what you're looking for."

The unexpected voice served as a shock to Nik, he quickly drew his light saber and with a flick of the wrist it was in front of him. "Who- who are you!?" Nik's voice stuttered, "I've come here to search for a teacher... If you wouldn't happen to know one, I'll be on my way..." Nik began to sidle back in the direction he had originally come from.

"Perhaps I do..." Hatori began to answer, not flinching from his position seated on the floor even as Jedgi drew his lightsaber, "But that would depend on what it is you intend to learn. Though if you would seek a teacher in a place such as this, I believe I may be able to help you."
Hatori's eyes finally opened and wandered over towards Jedgi, his cold blue eyes stayed on the would be Jedi for a long moment before he stood up. Hatori wasn't all too tall and had bleach white hair and white robes. All the better to blend in with the snow capped mountain peaks of Alderaan.
"My name is Hatori Akunin. Tell me, what is it you seek to learn here among fallen Jedi?"

'What? This guy thinks I'm a fallen Jedi!? Perhaps... It would be better if I didn't tell him,' Nik thought, light saber still pointed, he then began to speak, "I am Nik... Niklas Zyndryth. I seek a master to teach me the way of manipulating the force to fit my needs. I am fairly force sensitive, but I need to harness the power." Nik had a look of unsatisfied hunger as he talked about what he hoped to accomplish. 'Phew, I almost told him my real name,' Nik sighed silently, 'Too close...'
