The Rebel Faction

On the Drewwa base Master Nogar sat and contemplated on the same thing that he had be brooding about for the past few months. The fate of his former Padawan, Vonta Horn.

He fate wieghed heavily on his conscience. So he meditated searching the force for any sign of her. Anything that would give him a clue as to where she was!

So he sits alone in a secluded corner of the base, cross-legged, his eyes move under his eyelids as if he was dreaming. In a way he is dreaming. Dreaming himself into the force to search it's depths for some sign of the life force that he seeks.

All about him other force signature move about. Jensaarai, Teepo Palidin, and now the anomalous Baadu of the shadow arts. Of whom he had yet to fully understand. He sepparates them from his search looking for one with amix for force abilities including Aiki, Jedi, Teepo, and Jensaarai.

OOC: (Yes I had that happen with several of my respones to my R&D's I had to rewrite one for the Hyper Portal twice. Oyy...)

Drops of energy dot the universe. On a higher plane of thought he sifts through the life force of the galaxey beneath him. In moments he flashes from one star system to the next. Some he finds dark signatures, others of the light, and strangely some that hold inbetween the light and dark. Sitting in shadow like the strange Wookiee that he had met recently.

*More shadows in the universe. Strange that I was not aware of them before now.* He thinks to himself.

The process that he is attempting is arduous. He can only skim the universe. If he finds a spot that looks promising he cannot see where it specifically is. If he tries to see it specifically he only gets a force vision of where it could be. Flashes of sight, sounds and smells. Events that may be happening in the present, the past, or even the antient past.

It is not the best way to search but, for now, it is his only means of searching out his former padawan.

In the room that he sits in sweat gathers on his brow. The strain of this type of meditation is obvious to any one that would watch him.

On the astral plane Nogar feels his body waning. He could use the force to continue. But he knows that it is best that he conserve his strength. So that next time he trys this meditation he may actually succeed in his endouver.

Moving from one side of the galaxey in spirit, he flashes back to his corporeal form. As he comes out of his trance his breathing becomes heavier and deeper. Two grey eyelids reveal that the rapid eye movment is slowing down until all at once they are still and they open to reveal his two yellow eyes.

He lets out a sigh. Reaching into his light robe he pulls a rag to wipe the sweat from his brow. He puases as his hand comes up to his forehead. He sniffs at the air and then continues to clean the condensation from his forehead.

"It is good to see you again my dear Ring Defender." he addresses his visiter.

The Nohgri looked at the burden the the Jensaarai carried.

He made a quietly amused laugh. Aiki had no need for so many weapons. As their entire body became one in the Aiki ares. Be side him he had three things. A small pouch, his Aiki light-bo, and a leather wather bag.

He picks up the water sack and takes a long drink. He was a bit dehidrated for his efforts.

"Indeed they can be. But that is a problem I am glad that I do not share my friend." He sounds a bit amused as he replies.

"So be sides making an old sentient laugh what else brings you to my side?" he asks.

Irman Looked at the Jensaarai. He was ardent in his want to learn the Aiki ways.

"Now think long and hard of what you ask here my friend." he gives a piercing stare, "the powers and ways of the Aiki are by no means easy to master."

"Vonta Horn her self only learned the principles of Aiki unarmed combat, as far as I had gathered in my comunications with her she had yet to even after all the time she spent away from my tutulege."

He continues staring at him. Unarmed force combat at it's highest level involved total body empowerment. Vonta was his apprentice for more then a year and only learned to use many of the techniques through the empowerment of objects.

She was getting close. Training with the wooden Aiki akendo sword.

"Very well. But this shall be a joint partner ship. I sense strength within you that has yet to be taped." he takes another drink from the skin.

He needed a rest for now.

A quiet rumbling came from his stomach, "There are times for lessons then my friend and there is a time for other life neccessitys. Please join me for a meal. We can talk about our sects while we eat."

He stands up taking the pouch and placing it at his side and placing his light-bo on his back.

"Now we greet each other formally. I am Irman Nogar, former warrior of the Nohgri clans, current Master of the Aiki ways."

He makes a bow to his new friend and student.
