Rune acted quickly, without thinking or accessing the situation. His first instinct wasn't to use his bokken. Bringing up his left foot, Rune struck out at the hilt of Kitana bokken, possibly blocking it or kicking it away from his own shoulder. Then suddenly continuing to bring his left leg around he twisted around, bringing his bokken into the air and down onto the crate smashing it into many different sized pieces. It all being one graceful motion, before he came back around to Kitana. Rune felt it now, what she spoke of, like it coursed through his veins. "Any better?"He asked.

Told ya. Its starting to get easier to feel the flow of the force again.
Akira smiled, hold her lightsaber at the ready. She wasn't the best when it came to handling one lightsaber, but she would manage until Elisa became more proficient with her weapon. She spun the lightsaber around then before she struck, she twisted the saber around until she was holding it in reverse, and inward from her left, pulling the lightsaber with her wrist.
In a bit we should fight with our eyes distracting us. [/sub][/b] |

Kitana was listening to each person in the group. She first spoke to Akari's comment. "Akari, we start out with blindfolds and my assistance to block out distractions to help you learn to listen to the Force. Once you have learn this, we then can expand with more distraction once you know what it feels like. I am only trying to instruct you in the basics so that you can practice to mastery of the skill. Kitana knew Akari was a Jedi before so she should have known this was the process used to train younglings. While she may not be a youngling anymore, novice of the Force should always be walked through the easiest steps first.
Elisa did not listen to Akari or even Kitana. She had quieted her mind so much that she could only hear and see what the Force wised her to see. This meant that when Akari swung, Elisa brought her saber up at a slight angle so that the blade would simple deflect around her. It did not make sense, she was not showing a skill which she normal posed, but was Kitana was all passion Elisa was calmed to the point of almost removed.
Kitana noted the strangeness in Elisa, but had to talk to Rune. ”Yes, that was good. When you do not have time to assess a situation then always fall back on the Force. That is the power of Precognition. Next we will be moving onto Telekinesis when Akari is ready.” Kitana did not say Elisa because she could sense that Elisa found a way to connect with the Force to utilize precognition.

Rune nodded his head as Kitana spoke to him, offering her criticism and advice. Taking the same stance as before Rune eased into it, as he raised his bokken in front of himself. "Once more possibly, until she gets it?"Rune asked Kitana. He loved the thrill of combat and had one more advantage up his sleeve now that he learned precognition, he prepared himself for Kitana. "Or not?"He said.

Akira calmed herself throughout the strike, and let go of her lightsaber, twisting her hold on it. She was holding it the normal way, now. She brought up her second lightsaber in her left hand, and used it to box in Elisa's lightsaber. It was then that she fully calmed herself and became aware of everything around her.
She jumped back settling into a classic jar'kai form: one lightsaber held towards the opponent, and one held off to the side for defense. She listened and felt everything around her. She brought up her lightsabers to block an attack while she answered Kit.
Sorry, I was getting too ahead of myself. And Rune, I think I get everything now. [/sub] |

Hutch pulled up to the house on a very used Flare S swoop bike which he rebuilt from a junker he pulled out of the garbage yard on Nar Shadda. It had given him something to do during the long trip to Zeltros. It sounded kinda sick but it was good enough to get him from point A to point B.
He dismounted the bike and approached the gate. Before he used the term "house" loosely. The place was huge, like a palace. He pushed the button on the gate and cleared his throat. "Um... Hi?"

Kitana lowered her bukken and smiled. ”Good, you guys now have a basic understand of precognitions and more importantly have developed a connection to the Force in your own ways. With this understand off the Force around surrounding you, we can move onto one of the most useful ability in the Force. It can be applied to many aspects of combat, defense, and daily activities. I am going to use an ability called Force Meld which connects our minds. This will allow you to feel the way I ask the Force to do telekinesis.” Kitana reached out into the force, connecting their minds so they could feel what each other felt.
Elisa snapped out of her Zen state when Kitana used Force Meld to link them together. She did not like the feeling of being connected to the others right away; especially her friend Kitana. It gave her the weirdest feeling, almost as if she belonged in there somewhere. She did not like it, but Kitana seemed to have learned this way so it made sense to teach it.
At the front gate a man caring a blaster carbine stepped out from the guard shack and looked at the man. He looked like several of the other shady people that have been coming to the estate reasontly. The guard spoke directly at the newcomer, keeping his hand on the trigger the entire time. “What is your business with the Empress?” He was ready to fire should the man be a terrorist, but he knew that was not likely by the way that he approached.
Kitana spoke to the group. “Telekinesis using the fact that the Force is all around us and find a way to get it to apply a physical force to an object. It is important to remember that the Force is not finite but instead infinite. There is no difference in pushing a box with the Force or a starship. Now reach out around you, feel the Force as it flows through all the objects. Then focus the box nearest you. Feel the way the Force flows around it and redirect that energy through the object.” Kitana slowly lifted one of the crates off the floor and had it levitate a meter off the ground. She did not do anything radical so that they would not be overwhelmed by the experience. With the Force Meld they would not have to try and experiment with learning the methods of manipulating the Force. It was like reading to a child rather than just giving them a dictionary and telling them to teach themselves.

"A mysterious smoking man told me to tell you that somebody named Omega sent me." Hutch said. "i thought it was odd because no one in their right mind would name their poor kid Omega, but thats what the man said."
Hutch wanted to put his hand on his blaster but this guy looked itchy so he kept his hands out in the open. his finger never left his guns trigger and it was leveled, not pointed up in the air or down at the ground in the safe position. Hutch was uncomfortable with him but then again, he was uncomfortable with most of the people he worked with. Thats the nature of the beast when your a criminal.

Rune sat down the bokken he was using down beside his vibro-sword, when Kitana said they were going to learn TK. He watched as she explained about the Force, how to feel it, and how to use it. She said the Force was infinite, Rune didn't understand how it could be infinite but he didn't disagree. This was more like it though, these seemed more like the Jedi that he had heard stories of. Rune raised his hands, feeling the Force flowing around them, almost like a whirlwind, slowly he picked up a crate of his own. Growing use to and understanding how to move the crate, he threw it up into the air, and let go. Having it free fall, he walked under it as it fell. Then he brought his hands up at the moment before it fell on him, making it hover for a second before throwing it to the ground beside himself. It broke into pieces, he looked back to Kitana silently.

Akira removed her blindfold and waited as Kit spoke about everyone being able to feel the force. Akira felt the weird sensation of being in the force meld, but after a moment it didn't feel as odd. She watched as Kit performed her force push, then Rune his.
Akira was well in tune with the force again, and lifted up two boxes. She had them spin around each other, then finally crash, and let the debris fall to the ground. Akira exhaled, and levitated her lightsaber in her right hand, having it spin like a top.
That was rather easy.
Akira turned and looked up slightly. He felt someone at the main door's and could feel the guard anxious about him. No doubt Kit felt him also. [/sub] |

The guard laughed slightly, "You must be new to the organized crime world. My employer has men across the galaxy recruiting talent, rather giving their names they all just give the universal password Omega." The guard open the gate and pointed towards the house. "The Empress takes all new recruits in her study. Just tell the door man to take you there and once again that Omega sent you." The guard stepped back into the guard post and waited for the swoopbike to go through in order to close the gate.
Meanwhile Elisa turn was up to try and move the crate. She closed her eyes and let the Force flow around her, however unlike Rune and Akari, she struggled with only one small box. As it slowly rose off the floor, Elisa started to shack slightly, struggling to maintain the levitation. After a few seconds the crate dropped to the concrete surface bouncing onto its side before falling over. Elisa bent over and placed her hands on her knees. She was breathing hard a little bit of sweet was running down the side of her face. "What the hell. Why is it harder for me to do that then it is for them?" Elisa knew they did not struggle like she did. Akari it would make sense, she had already learned this ability once before, but Rune should also have struggled.
Kitana looked at Rune, Akari and Elisa. She was not sure if she liked the way that Rune was trying to show off or his overly destructive nature, especial to her stuff. Akari was also destructive and showing off. It was Elisa on the other hand was the exact opposite, she could hardly even do the task. After Elisa had finished Kitana finally spoke. "That was good display of ability, but did you have to destroy my boxes you two." Kitana tone said she was only joking around about the destruction of the boxes, but she when back to serious again as she answered Elisa. "Elisa, not everyone is equally as good at things in the Force. I myself have trouble with Telekinesis but I am a master Jedi Forge and Force Embody abilities. We just need to find the skills you are best at and train harder than others in the ones you have trouble with. And don't worry; it will get easier with practice." Kitana took a breath and looked at the other two. "For you two, remember that the application of Telekinesis can assist in many abilities. You can pull a blaster towards you, push someone into a wall, help launch yourself a greater distance through the air. As your skills in the ability increase, you will find that it is the most useful ability in the Force." Kitana allowed the Force Meld to collapse, once again isolating each person to their own mind.
Kitana slowly turned to head back to her house. She could sense Hutch coming and wanted to greet all new recruits. Before entering the turbo-lift however she turned back to the three students. "You may practice all you like in this room, however when you are ready I have a mission for you two." Kitana had looked at Rune and Akari directly when she said it, making it clear she was talking to them. Elisa was not part of the Omega Group and Kitana doubt she could convinces her to join without altering her memories greatly.
Elisa listened to Kitana’s explanation and accepted it because she had no knowledge which contradicted that fact. She thought about it, and wondered what other abilities there was that she maybe better at. She figured in time she would find something she was good at, even if someone else would have to teach her. In the mean time she simply walked over to a supporting pillar and sat down resting her back against it. She simple looked at the crystal that Kitana gave her with the lightsaber. It gave her a warm feeling that she liked, and she was starting to realize that the warm feeling was in fact the Force.

Rune looked at Kitana as she walked toward the turbo-lift, explaining that Akira and himself had a mission. "I don't need anymore practice for now. I'm ready now."Rune said to Kit in reply.

"Thanks pal." Hutch said as he remounted his swoop and drove it through the gate at idol speeds. The driveway to the front door to the place could be considered a road in it's own right. Hutch felt tempted to rev up the speeds a little but he kept the swoop going nice and slow.
When he got to the front door he shut the swoop off and dismounted. taking his helmet off and letting his wild curly hair free he glanced around and whistled. "not what i'd call a wretched hive of scum and villainy. Not too shabby." he said to himself. He put the helmet on the swoops handlebars and climbed the steps to the front door.
He admired the doorman for a second. he was all duded up in his uniform, waiting to open the door for every rich snot that happened to take a step onto the porch.
"Hey Jeeves. That guy down by the gate told me to tell you that some other guy on Nar Shadda named Omega sent me to come here." He said to the door man. While he spoke he took the cigarette he'd gotten on Nar Shadda out of his pocket and put it in his lips. "Am i allowed to smoke in there?"

Kitana turned to Rune. "Then come with me, I will explain on the way to my study." Rune stepped into the turbo-lift and the door closed. "Okay your mission is an assassination. I want to consolidate our power in Hutt Space and send a message to the Black Sun. The Black Sun Vigo Mepos Zil and the Hutts have made several treaties which allow them to operate. Kappa the Hutt is currently the Hutt in charge of Nar Shaddaa and is Mepos's major supporter in the Hutt Cartel. I want you to break into Kappa's estate, kill him, and plant evidence which leads to a Black Sun hit." The turbolift doors open and Kitana walked over to her disk and grabbed a disruptor and a datapad to give to Rune. "Here is the information we have on Kappa and you are shot him with this disruptor. It is not powerful enough to vaporize him, but it is enough to kill him. This along with have your ship's transponder changed to a known Black Sun's hitman's ship. Good luck and may the Force guild you." Kitana sat down and sat down.
Once Rune left the doorman open the door and let Hutch in. Kitana stood up and walked over to him. She was still in her wearing her comfortable smuggling clothing and red sunglasses. “Welcome. I am Kitana and I am the leader of the Omega Group. I was told you are here looking for a job. My man on Nar Shaddaa said that you were the smuggling type and that you have your own ship. I always looking for someone to move contraband around and I do pay better than any other criminal organization.” Kitana leaned up against the disk and waited to for Hutch to speak.

Rune listened carefully to the orders he was given, Katrina was very specific in how she wanted this deed done. He took the disruptor and placed it in the back of his belt, he also took the disk from Kit, sliding it into a pouch on his belt. As Kitana exited the turbo-lift Rune remained inside it, the doors closed and it began moving again, back to the hanger bay. The doors slid open and Rune walked out, his outfit was very primitive looking yet intimidating. He wouldn't want to stand out on this mission too much, before leaving he grabbed a cloak from a wall rack close by. Sliding it over his shoulders he looked over to Akira, "You coming along?"Rune asked her with a smile on his face. For some reason he was in a good mood, as he walked toward the ship he would be taking to Nar Shaddaa.
