Not minding the contact in the least he easily supported her against him, laughing a low, deep laugh as he could feel her heart racing. He ran his right hand through her hair, down the edge of her ear to her chin and tilted her face upwards so she had to look at him. Emerald flames danced in his eyes as he looked at her from a couple inches away as he whispered, "Yes, or no, Terra Kiros...what is your answer?" It was up to her to make that call. He had simply clarified a couple of the options for her so she could make an informed decision.

Terra looked into Nik's eyes as he told her to choose. Yes, be with Nik, or no, break it off here. She felt torn now, wanting to be with him, but also wanting to stay faithful to Ralph, whom she really did love. Nik certainly wasn't making it easy to decide...
She sighed."I...I sh-shouldn't...b-but..."But she wanted to...she wanted to be with him, to explore a new relationship and possibly take it farther...

Nik did not for one second let her pretty blue eyes hide in order to buy herself more time. She could end up blaming everything on Zeltron pheromones if she wanted to, but one way or the other, she was going to have to decide. A padawan on the verge of becoming a Knight was going to have to become more familiar with decisive action. Nik released her chin and traced his fingertips down her neck across her shoulder to the strap of her tank top and then down along it just above the hem across her chest over to her other shoulder. "Is that a 'yes'?" He smiled at her warmly, enjoying every second of this.

Terra shuddered and let out a small moan as his finger traced along her skin. He was really making a persuasive argument, and without Ralph here, she was finding it more and more difficult to say no. She was trying to resist him, but it was starting to fail and her resistance was lessening with every touch..."I...y-you...I...shouldn't..."

* Rowan bows respectfully as the female jedi introduces herself. " Well we have all had to make hard choices, if this life was easy then everyone would be a jedi" * Rowan shakes his head *" I would like to take some time to meditate and rest , once you have need of me just let me know" *Rowan heads into the temple to find a secluded spot Just Outside the Temple Jade barely smiled. Hard choices? If Rowan had any idea. The thought amused her in a bitter fashion. A few minutes after he left, she turned on her heel and headed back inside herself, deep in thought. |

Training Room 2 "Shhh then," he hushed her as he ran his hand down the middle of her torso bisecting her stomach and slipping around to rest low on her waist, suddenly pulling her against him before bodily picking her up and carrying her over to the balcony from which one could see the rising sun setting the horizon on fire. He unfastened her hair and let it fall around her face loosely before kissing her again, this time biting her lower lip. "So, how are your unarmed combat skills?" |

Terra shuddered at his touch, then squeaked in surprise as she was suddenly lifted from the ground and carried over to the balcony. She felt her hair coming down from the messy ponytail she had it fastened in, and she had to reach up to brush some of it out of her face, barely having time to do so before he was kissing her again. A small whimper escaped her as he bit her lower lip, but it didn't really hurt...
She gasped as he pulled away, barely registering his question, so it took her a moment to pull herself together enough to respond."Oh...umm...I...probably...I should...practice them...er..."Kind of an abrupt change of subject, especially since her mind was still whirling from the kissing and from the conflict that was still very much present, though if Nik kept this up, the conflict wouldn't be present much longer...

Training Room 2 Shihab wandered the halls heading to the training rooms for some practice with his light-pike, an unusual weapon to be sure, but one that afforded him the reach he needed while he flew, and still offered a credible defense against blaster and blade while on the ground. He stepped into the first vacant room, and stood quietly in the center of the room, oblivious to the couple on the balcony, as other matters claimed his troubled thoughts. With a low thrum, Shihab ignites his light-pike, and begins moving through the simple pose's and movements of Form V, hoping to set his mind at ease with the familiar repetition of sequences. His eyes were open, but they saw nothing, his ears heard the sound of his weapon moving, and it's constant thrumming was soothing, but still his mind was troubled.
He saw only the past, things that should not have been, but were. Nightmares of his own making, and of the making of the masters. He had no answers, but he was not comfortable in confiding in anyone else. He hoped he would find an answer soon, as these troubles had been pauging him for some time now and seemed only to grow more troublesome as time passed. |

Training Room 2 Evidently Shihab Mahir was more oblivious than he realized as he had managed to choose the only Training Room currently occupied within a vast Jedi Temple, not only that, but a training room that had been reserved for two hours as per the notice on the door as well as a room designed for unarmed combat. Doubtless any damages he wreaked upon the wooden floor would be docked from his pay or something. Next time Nik would take further measures.
It solved a dilemma for Terra though, as Nik set her back on her feet and quickly smoothed her hair back into place for her. "In that case, since this room I set aside till 0815 hours has been intruded upon, perhaps another time then?" |

Terra was both relieved and disappointed at the same time when she felt the presence of another person entering the training room, and she swayed a little when Nik set her down. With shaking fingers, she hastily redid the knot on her ponytail as he told her that they could do this another time. Maybe that was for the best, as Terra needed some time to think things over.
She nodded slowly."Y-yeah...s-sure...I should...go..."Stumbling a little, Terra quickly made her way out of the training room and headed for her quarters. She needed a shower and some time to herself to think...

Rowan walked the halls of the temple letting the force flow through him. Forgetting himself as he walked, Rowan accidentally goes head long into a female jedi just leaving the training rooms,...Rowan stumbles after hitting the young lady
" My apologies my lady, it seems i was lost in thoight"

Infirmary Days had passed. Maybe a week or two but time was of no matter while swimming in a bacta tank. What mattered were the memories, the dreams that dwelled up in the mind and passed like ebb and flow. One flicker showed a happy childhood even though it was filled with a lot of travelling and lack of trust towards anyone who wasn't family. Another one showed the brutal fists raining down on her unprotected face causing incredible pain until darkness claimed her mind. Then again for a moment maybe a glimpse of silver-coloured cognition there was a young woman and a Zeltron in a bar. Her mind lingered around in memory after memory until it broke out and floated around just to shun away from the garish light of hundreds of auras strong in the Force. She might have awoken back then but the pure intensity, the light her mind brushed against was painful to her. She had never seen, never experienced the presence of so many people who could tap into the Force. She had felt Nar-Shadaa and dull, grey mass that caused the eternal humming of the living melting pot of souls there. It had been a mass of so many different emotions but in the here and now no matter how many there were, they all demanded to be individuals. All of them shouting with different emotions but those who kept strictly to the code of the Jedi were the most painful ones to her. They denied themselves. At least in her opinion. It felt like shackles reaching out to bind her down to the ground taking her freedom and her breath. As the emotional pressure reached it's climax she errupted in a blast of raw energy breaking the tank. The more reasonable part of her mind felt sorry for the waste and the possible inconvenience she had just caused for anyone in need of a turn in the tank. The more instinctive part searched for a place to hide and so she slipped to the next corner of the infirmary. Easily to defend. She dulled her own presence in the Force like her father had taught her and used her telekinetic powers to form a wall of shards around the corner. Being in turmoil she wasn't really able to sustain both powers and so the shards dropped and raised whenever her focus changed between dulling her aura and trying to get a bit of peace and maintaining the physical shield between herself and the world. Her head was cradled in her hands and tears ran down her cheeks. Whimpering she repeated: "Let me go. Let me go. Let me go." |

Temple Infirmary Luckily there was more than one bacta tank here. In fact, there were many, and with the exception of the one that Anshara had been occupying they were all empty at the time. Shattering a bacta tank was a sure way to attract the attention of others, whether Force sensitive or not, and in here, there was nowhere for Anshara to run. Mei dropped her datapad on her desk, sent a quick comlink message to both Jade and Nik informing them that the girl they'd rescued from the underworld was awake.
Moving over to where the girl was crouched, the Healer projected calmness and encouragement in her immediate vicinity. Friendly eyes looked at the younger woman as she reached out a hand to her.
"Whatever you are running from is not here, little one. Welcome back to the land of the living. Why don't you come out of there and sit on a comfortable bed while we fetch you some hot chocolate?" Mei considered her with a friendly smile. "Perhaps you are hungry?" It was likely that Anshara wasn't able to currently recall the events that had led up to her arrival here, but that kind of trauma induced amnesia was normal for patients in her condition. If that was the case, it would probably disappear with time. |

Temple Infirmary She felt like being tossed into a haystack to find a needle just to realize that there were only needles. In all her life she had seen several Force-users but probably only twenty, at most, at one time. This would have been no problem but as a matter of fact she had been trained to search for Force-users or actually Force-abusers who were hiding. Leading a life of silence and contemplation her mind was wary all the time. Now the overload of beings burned in her head like a migraine. It was then that Mei flared her aura up in a good intent but for her it was like a bright light getting close to her face. Anshara's eyes rolled up so only the white was to be seen. She gasped like she was close to drowning and cramped a bit. The young woman tried to remember. She looked at Mei and saw that she was talking but she couldn't make it sound. Lowering her head and focusing at the healer like a wild animal cornered and ready to attack she managed to calm a part of her mind enough to be fairly reasonable. She moved her mouth seemingly chewing but it was more the fight between unarticulated growls and whole sentences. In the end her mind was victorious over the beast. Still it was hard for her to actually get the words out. "You.Are. Shouting. It's the auras. I feel all of them. At once." A pause, she swallowed but her mouth was dry. "Imagine me. Growing up in darkness. Searching light that is devouring fire and extinguishing it before it harms. Returning to darkness. I'm in an inferno right now. Too.Many.Of.YOU." She wasn't sure if her words helped the woman in front of her to understand what the problem was. Closing her eyes she thought of something that might help. Katas. Forms of moves could probably help but then again she would have to focus too hard to talk. Still there was something: "Lightsaber. Give me my lightsaber. I need a focus. Won't use it, you're not guilty."She cradled her head in her hands again. Exhausted and unable to focus enough to do anything else than keep up a defense something her more animalistic part did. |

* Rowan sits out on an outdoor balcony, meditating. It soothes him to have to let himself truly connect with the force in order to drown out the noise of Coruscant. As Rowan opens himself up to the force it feels as if a dam within breaks free and lets a power river flow through him. Rowan's breath slows, and as does his body...becoming apart of his surroundings and the force Rowan focuses on peace

* Aren walks down through the hallways of the temple with ease that is not seen to often. Though his feet touch the ground, it is as if his body glides through the air.Though Aren's presence in the force was one full of cheer and light, his body moved like a living Shadow. No amount of acting could hide what his body had been trained to be for years, For unlike most Jedi who serve out their Knighthood carrying out missions of goodwill, Aren spent his in an elite team of jedi shadows hunting Sith for the Jedi Council.
Aren waves and greets many of his fellow Jedi, some small talk here and there but not enough to keep him distracted from his goal. For through the force he can feel a presence he hasn't in some time, his oldest freind Rowan Dright.
Aren rounds the corner and at the end of the hallway he can see a black robed figure meditating out on a balcony...it was him. Walking up and leaning on the balconies banister next to Rowan Aren speaks
" Stil wearing the old uniform...aye Rowan"

Won't use it, you're not guilty."She cradled her head in her hands again. Exhausted and unable to focus enough to do anything else than keep up a defense something her more animalistic part did. Temple Infirmary Mei stopped a few feet away from Anshara. If the girl fought her in her current condition, she felt she could win easily enough, but conflict was not something the Healer sought. A wrinkle appeared between her eyes as she frowned in thought. "You were found unconscious, dying in the underworld. But, I did not find a lightsaber." The girl was obviously not Sith, but why would she react to the presence of Jedi as if they were a virus? Still, Mei made no further attempt to reach her. "I suggest you come lie down. Food and drink will be provided." She gestured over to the empty bed she'd set aside for Anshara, and hoped the others would get there soon before the girl had to be sedated and restrained for her own protection. Maintaining the same calm, level tone she continued, "I am Mei Ondreyu, a Healer here in the infirmary within the Jedi Temple."Across the room, the door slid open, and Jade entered the infirmary at a brisk pace. She took in the situation between Mei and Anshara immediately, recognizing the girl for a frightened animal at this point instead of something closer to human. Also, Mei was not antagonizing her. |

Not long after Jade entered the infirmary, Terra entered and went to stand next to her master. Mei was on the other side of the room with Anshara, who seemed to be in a state of massive fear and confusion, at least from what Terra could tell. She glanced over at Jade."Sorry I'm late..."

Following Jade into the infirmary I make my way to the other side, trying not to crowd the patient, especially since I didn't know too much about what was going on. It had been a while since I had been in this part of the temple, Ironically an area that I had once been in charge of. Of course that was years ago, before I had nearly killed Syren out of ignorance and had given up on healing all together. Knocking those thoughts out of my head with a long draw from my flask, I lean up against the wall planning to observe.
