Raiken smirked as the dust clouds started spitting up around him, but rather than worry about it, he quickly closed his eyes, and pressed the attack forward, by sprinting forwards, with 2 backhanded slashes, with his full speed and strength in the blows. He wouldn't give time for the clouds to form... Overconfidence is the failings of all you sith... He growled through his smirk.

"I never am overconfident nor do I underestimate. Thats how I lived as long as I did." Ezekiel's opponent was fast and might be a problem. He blocked the attack head on, putting a strain on his left arm. Ezekiel ignited his orange lightsaber and aimed it at the man's head, using the force on his right arm so the attack would go faster, forcing him to moved away if he was smart enough.

Raiken smirked as Ezekiel did as he suspected he might. He quickly ducked under the slash, making it a clear miss, and brought his sabers up, into Ezekiel again, this time, while pushing on him with the force, to make him move towards Raiken, lessening the chance of the man dodging or jumping away.

Ezekiel moved closer to Raiken, clearly he was in control...for now. He brought his lightsaber close to him and them spun around using the force making him go faster. If Raiken wanted him closer then that what he was getting. As he spun faster and faster, it almost seemed he blurred in a redish orange tornado, heading right to Raiken.

Nergul's ship exited hyperspace over Yavin IV and he took the ship down to the moons surface. Upon exiting the ship he could sense the presence of two force users here within the nearby area. He made his way through the forest swiftly before coming across two other force users battling it out, dust and wind blowing in the direction of one the two..
He was still back about twenty feet or so into the forest as of now so he decided to lean up against a tree and watch the battle for now.. He was sure that these were two others that came to answer Cains call like himself so he decided to watch for now and see how this little duel played out..

"T3, what's the status on those back up engines?" asked Zilfer as he continued to watch the view screen. The droid came around the corner and stopped right next to him. It beeped low, and prolonged.
"We have enough fuel to get there but not to get back? Fine, I'm sure we'll be fine T3." said Zilfer as he put a hand on the droids head. The ship finally rocked out of hyperspace and Yavin and her moons where ahead of them. Closing his eyes he remembered his vision. Darkness pulsating out of Yavin's fourth moon filled all around with forest.
"Now we get to the bottom of this." said Zilfer piloting the ship down to the moon from space and as he flew looking for a place to land he saw lightsaber clashes taking place throughout the whole jungle. It seemed that he wasn't the only one who had come. It appeared Jedi and Sith waged war upon the planets surface. "They started the party without me."
Zilfer smirked as the Ebon Hawk set down and then he told T3 to stay within the ship, and add in their new upgrade. T3 beeped in confirmation and Zilfer headed out to the surface. As soon as he got down the hatch the shield and cloaking device powered up and his ship was hidden. With a smirk he headed out through the forest focusing on the main point of attraction. Surely everyone on this moon was heading that way, and he did not want to draw attention to himself. A combination of dropping into the void, Shadow clones, and misdirection tactics kept those he ran across from ever noticing him or being able to track him. His skills were far too superior for a Jedi or a Sith to begin to understand the full complexity of how he slipped through their fingers.
He had found his way to the temple finally and saw two figures fighting it out. "Already fighting amongst themselves I see...." said Zilfer as he melded with the shadows and dropped into the void once more. The landscape was dark, and the moon was the only thing to light his way, in this dark environment. Everything was silent in the void as it usually was, for there was never any sentient life within it. He walked up to the temple's doors and with a massive telekinesis forced the rocky door off it's hinges allowing him to step forth into them. Once within the first hallway he dropped out of the void, and he looked back.
The large stone entrance was still closed in the real plain, and if anyone had been able to see him it would have looked like he had teleported through a door. He finally continued on, his gray robes adorning his body lightsaber on his belt for a quick draw. 'This place is brimming with the power of the force.... Power always attracts the rats...' thought Zilfer as he continued forward into the tomb until he came into a room with a dark figure reading text out of the tomb. The light of the tomb was faint, candles faintly lit the tomb and Zilfer knew he had an advantage here. As he walked forward towards the black garbed figure he spoke.
"So your the one causing this big commotion.... Tell me. Why such a big celebration?" asked Zilfer not even sure he was going to get an answer from a Sith. They almost always where evil, and Zilfer wouldn't hesitate to wipe this freak along with ever other one on this planet off the face of the galaxy.

ooc: woulda been better to keep them near ya, rather than try to tornado me bic: Raiken smirked as Ezekiel blocked his blow, and quickly pushed the swords towards him. He didn't worry about a block to Ezekiels torando move, due to the proximity, he just rammed his sabers towards Ezekiel as he made the attempt. With him turning away from Raiken, it would be that much harder to try to block, and with the force hold on him, the turns wouldn't go that fast. His smirk turned into a smile, as he said, As you were saying? As his blades passed through ezekiel, since he didn't worry to carry on the block. He quietly stood up.

"Celebration?" He asked in return, his voice echoing in the cavernous temple as the shadowy figure intruded into his realm, a twinge in the Force announcing the approach of several other beings outside of this one who spoke to him, their turmoil and anger easily radiating in the vast energy around them like ripples in a pond. "If you refer to the ones outside, their petty differences mean little to me. Let them kill one another, it will only leave me with those strong enough, worthy enough to become part of my Empire."
He kept his focus on the ancient tomes before him, their passages endlessly fascinating to him, each word relinquishing their secrets of the past. Pale candle light danced over the pages in the book and illuminated each word in turn, his mind eagerly absorbing their message and processing a potential use for them simultaneously.
The room was eerily quiet for a moment, only the feint sound of distant combat and a humid breeze could be heard resonating in the cavernous temple chamber. Eventually, his his fingers guided his eyes along the last entrance in the record, tracing its path across the ancient parchment before he calmly reached over and pulled the cover of the book closed, its innumerable pages coming together with a dull thump.
Keeping his attention faced towards the wall in front of him, he spoke to the man again. "But I see that since you have come to my call, you find yourself worthy of being in my Empire." His tone was laconic and seemed to lack any sense of urgency or alarm, given that he had several unknown and potentially unstable Force-users bearing down on him, each one no doubt entertaining their own private thoughts of ending him to claim the mantle of Dark Lord for themselves. Even now, he sensed a vague trace of potential betrayal in this one at his back.
Finally turning to face the man, he spoke again. "Why is it you have found yourself here? What do you wish to gain from this?" He asked, staring at him through the dim candle light being thrown over the ancient room.

Zilfer smirked as the question was asked of him. "You seem to take me for someone who would care about a vast empire. It's not factions or anything that motivates myself." said Zilfer as slowly from his belt floated his lightsaber, in the middle it twisted splitting to two single hilt lightsabers and then into his hand. "What I wish to gain... is balance. Your call of power has set off a chain reaction throwing this place into chaos. There must be balance. At this moment in time, that means you out of the picture."
Zilfer not one for much small talk activated a single saber outwards it's blade extending outwards. He then unleashed his torrent of the force, unleashing a straight telekinetic blast at the Dark figure named Lord Cain in front of him. Zilfer dropped into the void leaving a shadow clone in his place as he moved through the void to a new location and prepared to strike again.
"It's people like you, who do not realize that neither side is stronger. Only by wielding the powers of both light and dark can you ever hope to overcome your adversaries. That.... is why you will fall." said Zilfer's shadow clone.

Ezekiel watched Raiken stood up, he did so as well. All was heard was the hum of their lightsabers. The fight seemed to be pointless now. His opponent was strong and simply won't be killed so easily. His attention then turned to someone else. A distance away Ezekiel felt through the force that someone was watching their fight in the shadows of the forest. Before anything he could do, a wind bursted through the entrance of the temple as all the dust that had build up blew outside.
Ezekiel turned to the temple. "Well something going on in there." He turned off his lightsabers and then said to the man he just fought. "I don't know about you but I want to find out." He then turned to the man in the forest. "And what about you, Curious enough?"

Cain's face twisted into a sneer of denigration as the man before him made clear his intentions, igniting his saber and pushing forward with a great wave of Force energy. It was as he had suspected, treachery was his aim, his mission simply to obliterate his competition and claim balance at the point of a blade. A plan he could almost admire, were it not for the fact that he himself were the competition this man sought to eradicate.
Reacting to the attack, Cain threw up a hand in front of him, countering with his own power and shielding himself from the onrushing wall of telekinetic power, deflecting and dispersing a great deal of the power while simultaneously absorbing a small portion of it with little effort. The assault and display of hostility was more than enough to provoke Cain and force his own hand.
Reacting quickly, he thrust his free hand forward and unleashed a powerful wave of Force energy towards the man who had, foolishly, decided to stand his ground against him. The telekinetic wave rushed forward and impacted the man, only to see him vaporize the instant it made contact with him.
Surprised by this development, Cain reacted with resolve, showing no outward sign of shock or disbelief. In truth, he was familiar with the tactics this man was using, and began searching the chamber for any signs of his assailant, his words now seeming to come from nowhere as he continued to taunt him from the shadows, attempting to break his resolve by attacking him with petty words.
Cain maintained his composure as he scanned his surroundings, both through the Force and with his own eyes. Inwardly, he held a slight measure of admiration for the man's technique and boldness. "A practitioner of the Kumori Arts, I see. At least you will prove an entertaining foe." He said, a sense of confidence in his words.
"This balance you speak so highly of.... Do you not see that it cannot be attained by destroying those who seek to establish it? What is your plan for balance should you defeat me? More will only rise up to take my place. Shall you kill them as well?" He asked, words regrettably being his only "attack" at the moment. Though he loathed words over action, if meaningless taunts was to be his game, then so be it.
"You defeat your own purpose by slaying those who seek to establish your precious balance."

Nergul heard to blast and turned to see the dust escaping the temple. This place was becoming chaotic.. He looked over to see the man noticing him finally. Nergul smirked and began to move away from the tree he leaned against.
"Yes I am curious.. I'm gonna take a shot in the dark here and say the two of you are hear to answer the Dark Lord's call?" Nergul said walking forward and letting his hands and muscles flex from underneath of his Sith armor and the power gauntlets.
It had been a while since his last fight and if one happened today he wasn't complaining. He had the sudden urge to draw his lightsaber and test this mans strength but he contained himself. It would be useless. They would all be tested soon enough and the weak would be cast down, unworthy..

OOC Without looking at FP I know mine is higher then yours but your WP is pretty high, you couldn't all out negate the force push but well enough. <.< another observation is you took out the shadow clone without letting me respond or decide if i was going to use my own telekentic power to stop your push from nicking it, BUT other than that it's totally fine. Nice post by the way. IC: Zilfer's plan had fallen somewhat out of disorder was one of the components was revealed. As Force clone rushed forward, the telekentic wave from Cain blasted into the Force clone making it disappear however what Cain would find out shortly enough and hopefully too late that the lightsaber was infact real. It flew at him straight and extended. Zilfer had feinted within a feint which was the main tactic of a Kumori. Make your opponent doubt what is real, and what your next move is, make him unable to trust his instincts. As always Zilfer was planning ahead should the other half of the lightsaber miss and not pierce Cain he was already thinking of his next move. A figure of Zilfer appeared, it was impossible to tell if it was the real thing or another Force clone appeared as the lightsaber would pierce Cain grabbing ahold of the hilt once more if it missed the figure of Zilfer his grey hood up would swing the lightsaber in whatever direction Cain was dodging or retreating assuming that he was faster then Cain who looked slow to Zilfer's eyes. "Vengeance and Justice shroud my true purpose...." said Zilfer as he reemerged, and caught his lightsaber and continued on afterwards. "You do not balance this scale, only by the destruction of the sith and the jedi can this be acheived. You are not the one to do this. I will kill anyone who stands in my way."

"I answer no ones call...I happened to stumble to this call and became interested. I wonder if this wasn't a hoax." Ezekiel said to the man who came out of the forest. He looked at the temple. "Don't know about you two but I want to see what going on in there." He started to walk towards the temple.
