The image switches to one of a space plate form. Where there are multiple Jensaarai clad in armor.

"Jensaarai pride them selves on defense upon all else. One of their greatest assets is the art of Cortosis armor weaving. Cortosis, if you did not know already, is the one substance in the universe that can short out a light saber. The planet that the Jensaarai call home is one of the few places that the substance is found in any great quatity." Vonta took off the over robe that she wore revealing her own Cortosis armor.

"Their armor is also made to symbolize the spirit of each Jensaarai. I my self made mine in the visage of an eagle for the love of flying that I possess from being a fight pilot most of my life." She stood in her armor that was covered in feather like designs in gold and silver.

"Now my student I want you to attack me with your light saber."

Kenshin thought that the cortosis armor was quite interesting and believed it when she said it could sort out a lightsaber. But actually testing that thought shocked him a little. He gave her a blank look for a moment as he tried to comprehend what she just told him to do. When he broke out of his momentary daze he asked her tentively:

"Erm...okay..."

He unclipped one of the lightsabers he had on his belt and ignited it in his right hand. The white blade of the saber Master Wade gave him sputtered and hummed into life.

"Err...any particular attack you want me too do? Or any basic strike aimed for you will do...?"

Kenshin gave an unsure grin as he asked the question. He felt like a butcher asking a customer what type of cut they wanted.

She read him easily enough. He was hesitant to attack but her purpose was for demonstration not just for novelty. Some things are best understood when they are seen first hand.

"Any attack well do. Now come at me."

Kenshin frowned but did what she asked. He ran at her and gave a quick half hearted slash aimed for her chest. Kenshin was fully aware she was fully able to defend herself even if he did a more intricate move, but he wasn't able to make himself do one.

She felt that this was adaquite for her puposes. The padawan was not showing his best yet. Being a jedi his heart is just not in an attack. She liked that about this padawan. His feelings followed his code. A jedi must be hesitant to make a killing blow that would result in death.

She could have defended her self yes. A light saber parry, A empowered hand block, she could even have phase shifted through the floor to avoid the attack. But this time her defense was to stand still. The saber hit her square in the chest. It met with alittle resistance flickered a moment and died. Having temporaly shorted the saber out.

Kenshin held the now off lightsaber at his side. He stood still, slightly disturbed at what he just did.

"Erm...well that definately explains it all..."

He gave a crooked grin hoping she wouldn't ask him to attack her again.

"Do not worry Kenshin," She saw the look of concern on his face.

"Experience is the best teacher. That is another lesson for you. I would think that its is better to see the actual effects of cortosis on a light saber first hand againest a freind then againest an enemy.

As you saw the cortosis cuases a feed back loop that disables your light saber temporally. Given a couple of seconds you have only to reactivate it again. But that few seconds you lose it make you vulnerable. Keep that in mind if you ever face a Jensaarai my friend."

He gave a slightly relieved smile.

"Actually, I'd rather test the armor on neither a friend or foe, but a droid or a dummy."

Kenshin listened intently when Vonta explained how the cortosis armor worked and how it would effect one's situation in battle. He nodded in understanding.

"Well then speaking of droids that moves us to the next stage of the Aiki powers. Computer, droid combat mode 3.9."

"Acknowledged." The computer answers.

From the floor 4 compartments opened. Two droids armed with sparing sabers, a Destroyer droids, and 4 little practice drone droids that they commonly used for light saber practice rose out of the ground.

"The droids are all armed with minimal fire power so do not worry about them to much." The destroyer droid opens fire on them. The room becomes a scene from the battle of Naboo. WIth gungans all around them and battle droids about them. They remain in a small zone with ony the droids in the room at their disposale.

Vonta Makes a quick empowerment of one hand and blocks some of the fire. One of the sparing droids comes at her and she parrys it with empowered limbs.

The Small drones came at Katern along with the second sparing droid.

Kenshin was watching Vonta defend herself and was a bit startled when the remaining droids came after him. The lightsaber that was still in his hand ignited and blocked the first wave of fire. A second pale blue hummed into life and joined it's white bladed sibling in battle.
