The Rebel Faction

Vonta gave a small smile. Most of the order was not exactly thrilled at what she, a mere padawan, had set out to do. Some thought of it as a affront that a padawan that had not even reached knight hood should accomplish so much.

"Well Kenshin I am glad you think so." She was a bit proud of the holo deck her self.

"Computer." She addressed a separate computer voice rather then the one that strike runs the ship from. "Run Exibition program 10 'The grand tour' ."

The gridded room ( Very simular to star Trek: TNG tech. just no solid light holograms ) Became wall to wall black for a moment only the two occupants brought any element of color.

" Before we start the next lesson though Student. I want to know what did you think about as you thought about my little riddle?"

"Yes well basically that is a more simplistic way of saying how the force sects begain to split out from the original jedi order.

Just like all of the members of the order have differing views of the force and take different path in accordance to those force beliefs differents groups of force users work on the same priciple on a larger scale.

Groups of force users that differ simply split from the original order. As it was with the Rogue order today. That is how it has always been even in the ancient days."

Vonta turned her attention back to the room. "Computer begin visual aids."

A picture of a member of yoda's race appears in robes. "We well begin at the begining. The original users of the force were more like a order of monks then they were peace makers. Before the times of hyper space travel the force users were limited to their own home systems or a small cluster of inhabited systems."

The image shifts moveing in a fluid fashion that was as butiful as it was alien. "The ancient force users mostly used their bodys as weapons light sabers did not come along for a great deal of time later."

"This particular sentient is a member of the Shimuran Order. They are a group of monks that believe that technology is some thing that can lead to the dark side so they do not believe in using it at all." The image shifts again to a man in a dark robe looking old and shriviled.

"This is a picture of one of the few recordings left of the most ancient of the sith lords. Not much is known about them. I have not found much my self seeing as it was some thing that was thought of at the time to be best left forgotten for all the ages.

They belived as all sith do. That the dark side holds the true power of the force. The idea spread through the galactic spanse. And I believe that you know more then enough about the old wars." The image of the old man faded replaced with a force user with a helmet on that covered his eyes.


OOC: Feel free to ask questions as this is a class.

"Now we come to another divergence of sorts in the force sects." It showed an image of a force user with a primitive looking light saber connected to a bellt abattery pack. A line feed power to the ativated saber. It stood beside the helmeted man in jedi robes.

"It was the time when the jedi order was adopting the use of light sabers. A group of jedi believed that the light saber was a inferior weapon to a precise blaster. The jedi was expelled from the order becuase of his beliefs.

But over the years he took on more followers. Creating and founding the order of the Teepo Palidins also known as the gun slinger jedi. They keep the jedi titels of knights and such but that is about it. " The Example of the blaster weilding jedi moved about blind with his blast sheild down.

"The Teepo's developed a highly attuned force sense for precision hitting with expertly crafted blasters. Allowing them to see through the force for up to a 3rd of a mile around them."

OOC: Wrong name.

IC:Strike appeared before vonta in the room. "EXcuse me ma'am mut I believe that that is a bit back wards. The light saber came first and then the blasters."

Vonta was a bit surprised by her hologram bursting in but thuoght about it and she was correct. "Ah, yes that is correct thank you strike."

The female hologram fades as fast as she had appeared.

"The light saber has been a staple of the jedi for several centrys. It is a lost knowledge of were the technology came from I am afraid."

"Yes, well then moveing on to the Order of the Aiki. One of the orders that I had the privlidge of training in came shortly after that. The AIki fighting arts were founded by A master Morehie. A Jedi master that lived to be over 1100 years old dying in the jedi cullings with most of the other force users at that time.

He was a admirer of the unarmed arts of the shimuran Monks who were masters at unarmed combat. But he disagreed with them on two main points. The Monks were rarely if ever interfering in the affairs of the galaxy. So he believe that the Aiki order as it would be known would be more proactive then the Shumurans but less then the jedi. Finding a balace between the two. Secondly the Aiki believed that technology was unnecessary but they did not forbid the use of it as the Shumurans did." Vonta waved her hand and the image of the old master of the Aiki disappeared.

"Computer manuel spar. Program : 'saber duel' " A a compartment opened up in the floor and a sword training droid rose out of it. The kind of droid that would normally handle a sword now had a light saber.

The room gave it a different holographic appearance. The droid gained flesh and robes of a jedi knight. The saber was ignited with a hum.

"Aiki ways also teach fighting with out killing. I can disable a person in a thousand ways with out resulting in death. Although what you might be thinking is what use is unarmed combat againest a light saber." Vonta turned to the holo/droid opponent she nodded that she was ready and he nodded a acknowledgment. He came with his saber poised to strike.

Vonta Focused the force energy of her body into her hands. Making them into palms they begain to glow with a bright blue aura. He made one swing that vonta dodged with ease. A second recovery was also dodged but as she ducked it looked as if she had no move that could counter the deadly cutting blade. It was almost at her shoulder when she reacted by bating the shimmering blue blade to one side leaving him wide open to her for a upper cut. With a grace and deceptive ease she use her force empowered hand to deliver a blow to the head that sent the mechanical form flying backwards.
