No use of the force 7 - Vaathkree: Domed Shelter Looking around, this may not have been the most ideal of choices for a vacation spot. Outside of the thin dome of glass you are standing in rests the harsh world of Vaathkree. As long as the dome is intact you don't feel the heavier gravity of the planet, nearly twice that of galactic standard, or the poisonous atmosphere which quickly kills any oxygen breathing life form. However, 30 posts into the match a small meteor, the likes of which are common on this planet, crashes into the dome, destroying it's protective effects.

Auri's eyes blinked open, she was lying on the ground of a place she'd never seen before. Her last memories had been strolling to her home on Nar Shaddaa, happy to be finished with her latest work and a few creds better off. Shaking her head, she cleared the affects of whatever had knocked her out to bring her to this place, but this wasn't a Hutt planet, it didn't smell bad enough. Getting to her feet, she looked around and dusted off her cargo pants, she seemed to be in a giant glass prison, looking she could see the stars beyond and flashes of burning light as meteors crashed through the planet's atmosphere. Checking herself over she still had her twin blasters strapped to her thighs and knife in the holster behind her back, in fact the creds were still in her pocket. The only thing strange was being in this place. She looked around through the plants and trees that were growing here, trying to work out if she was alone in this craziness.
"Helllo, anybody here?"

At the sound of the her asking if anyone else was there a hidden elevator opened up from the floor and Xeonon was brought out. He had originally thought that he had been placed in some sort of box as a sick and twisted way of ending his life. Once the floor opened though he knew this was not the case. This had more of a Colosseum feel to it. That would explain why he had been abducted and sealed in with his armour and weapons. The crimson colour of his armour was only broken by a white and black symbol on his shoulders denoting him as a member of the Emperors Praetorian Guard
What he could not see, but only feel was a slight modification to the armour. There was something in the neck area that put constant pressure on the right of his neck, and because of this annoyance he found it all but impossible to reach out in the Force to search his surroundings. It was like when you forgot a word and you know what it is but you just cant figure it out. Turning around he grabbed the hilt of his hand a half sword in his left hand he heard the voice of the woman speaking. Answering through his plastoid helmet the voice came out modulated and robotic. I am here ma'am. I am sorry to say though you wont be for very long. I need to get out of here and return to my Emperor and my intuition tells me you are the key. As Xeonon began to walk the 20 feet between them he felt the familiar banging of his holster for the .48 caliber pistol on his back. Sword outstretched he spoke again. If you would do me the favour of getting closer so we can end this I promise to make it quick.

She didn't speak, but her lips drew back from her teeth and she gave a guttural snarl, the hairs on her neck prickling at the sudden danger. Her right hand was already moving defensively to her thigh as he had appeared, and with his words it had gripped the blaster pistol strapped there and pulled it free. She fired automatically, not even waiting to aim it properly as she repeatedly pressed the trigger, the first three shots would hit the ground in front and beside him for sure, but the last two were aimed at his left leg and chest. As she finished the last shot, she was moving sideways.
Throwing herself into a body roll to her back and right she would end up on her left knee., and her right foot on the floor ready to push herself again if needed. She had angled her body so that her right side was closer to him, presenting a smaller target and protecting her chest. There was still a good 20 foot between them and her eyes did not leave his form. She could have played nice, worked with him to both get out of here alive, but instead he decided that he would do as their captures desired and provide entertainment in their deaths. Why were men so predictably stupid?

Xeonon had to give her credit she was faster on her feet than most people. He would say that most average people when being charged by a man dressed in red armour of any height would cower and die. As the golden woman in front of him started reaching for her blasers Xeonon had already flexed the required muscle to activate mag field in the suit and for the umpteenth time he wished that this order was allowed lightsabers. The mag field activated just as the third shot hit the ground in front of him and the pain he felt was incredible; easily worse than the annoyance in his neck.
As the shot to the left thigh hit it bounced off and to the left landing on one of the trees causing the bark to smolder. The shot to his chest actually making him lose his breath explosively he tried hard to suck back in even an ounce of air.
As he was still running he tracked the movement and grabbed his own slug thrower into his right hand. He would not fire at Auri though. He would fire high above her into the glass ceiling causing the glass above her to shatter and fall down straight down onto her. Now the section of the dome directly above and below her was exposed to gravity nearly twice the usual amount which Xeonon hoped would slow her down enough for him to catch up. As the glass fell Xeonon finally caught his breath.

Auri gasped, her whole body felt the sudden rush of gravity pulling her down, if she hadn't already been centred on the one knee so securely she would have easily have fallen over with the speed the atmosphere around her changed. The oxygen felt thinner, and she pushed herself to concentrate and ignore the burning in her lungs they would repair themselves in time if she survived this. Letting out a roar she pushed herself up onto two feet, her body still twisted to show the smallest target, her right arm extended to fire her pistol like a duelist at twenty paces. The armoured man moved closer at speed, but at some point he would hit the heavier gravity well too, and with all that armour on she hoped that it would have an affect to slow his movements, while she knew the blaster bolts didn't seem to penetrate his shielding, she brought across the membrane in her eyes that picked up UV light to see if she could see the pinpricks of electrical light that would show his shielding and any weaknesses in it.
Auri fired her blaster pistol at the running man's armoured face, hoping the resulting sparks and lights would distract him enough to not notice her left hand go towards her back and grasp the handle of her knife, drawing the eight inch blade free. She gathered her energy, reading herself to move against the resistance around her.

What a woman. It took a strong person to be able to hold up twice your weight, it takes a truly great person to be able to lift it. Had they met under different circumstances Xeonon would have wanted to take the time to get to know her. It was too bad that he decided to play the game.
Again the shot hit him and again it bounced off. Regrettably the kinetic energy was not stopped and Xeonons head snapped back as the view port inside attempted to compensate for the shot. As such he missed the hand reaching backwards. Nothing was broken but if he hadn't already been reeling from the pain coming from the field he would have both a splitting headache and whiplash in the neck. He fired one more shot from his slug thrower towards his opponents gun hand. It was a small target, but the closest one to him and to his knowledge the most dangerous part of the woman at this time.
Just before stepping into the heavier gravity Xeonon used all of his power to jump forward and upward and dropped his pistol on the ground and gripped his sword in both hands. He hoped that the increased gravity would cause his full 270 pounds to strengthen an overhead blow straight down into the womans head.

Her muscles were trembling and she gave a scream of frustration as her arm dropped and her knees started to buckle under the increased weight. The giving way to gravity had an unexpected bonus as her hand and arm fell below the slug, she felt it rip past her shoulder just grazing it as she went down. The scream of fury became one of pain as it burnt across her skin and tore open her top.
She managed to push her fall into something of a forward roll, and as he leapt up Auri clumsily rolled under his feet and away from where his sword would fall, not able to bring herself back to her feet, she ungainly scrambled on all fours forward out of the gravity well, trying to twist round to at least be able to see him when he next moved. She was panting hard and tears stung her eyes with the pain wracking her body and lungs, she wanted to crawl into a hole and hide but holes seemed to be hard to find in this place and everything she had been through in her past gave her the spirit to never give up; even when on all fours on the ground. Auri snarled.

As Xeonon entered the intense gravity and unbreathable air he swung with the full weight behind him and missed. As Auri slid under him he cut a half an inch into the ground from the blow. Not wanting to be crushed by the immense weight he let his forward momentum carry him so that Xeonon rolled as he landed and was carried beyond the hole. Already the air seemed sweeter in his lungs. Better. He coughed out a few times trying to get the bad stuff out.
You're like a spider monkey aren't you?
Turning to face the woman before him he walked back to wear he had originally jumped into the heavy gravity field. The plate of glass that fell being about ten feet by ten feet Auri was just out of reach of his sword and he was not about to walk into the gravity. Not when he weighed 270 without the armour which itself weight another 50 pounds. No. Between the strain on his body from the field and his limited time in the heavy gravity he was not about to take any chances.
He walked back to where he jumped in and picked up his discarded weapon which had three rounds left in it (four fired at the glass and one at Auri)
Is there anyone I should contact for you when I get out of here?
As he waited for her to reply Xeonon aimed the weapon at her center of mass and put pressure on the trigger. Not enough to shoot the weapon but any more and he would fire at her chest.

Auri took the moment of calm to get to her feet, glad to finally be away from the increased gravity, silently she thanked the stars that she had always been a slim woman and didn't have to carry that weight around all the time her knees would never have forgiven her! Hearing him talk to her again, she turned to face him, realising that he already had a gun trained on her chest. Oh great this was going to hurt.
"Contact? Have you got a pen and piece of paper? This is going to take a while."
She cocked her head hopefully to the side, smiling and hoping that her hair didn't look too bad, she'd hate to die looking a mess.
"By the way I'm Auri, but I didn't catch your name, if you are going to hide your face at least tell me who you are?"

The handgun followed her up as she stood. It seems that both were now remaining out of the poison and a room this large would take a long time to fill up as the oxygen left. She made no motion to move or get out of the way of the line of fire. She seemed beat. As such Xeonon disengaged the field around his armour and breathed a sigh of relief. Sure there was still pain, plenty of it. Now without the field causing his muscles to burn he felt the shots from early. Especially his head. Everywhere else though felt like needles were being dragged through his skin but he knew that too would pass.
Im a dead man, no different than you shortly. I ask one more time Auri is there anyone I should contact after your passing?

"Got to say, if you are so sure you're going to end up dead too then why not team up and take down the Sons of a Kowakian Monkey Lizards that brought us here to kill each other? We could see if we could find a way out?"
She was stalling for time, getting her strength back, she knew that as much as she could hope that he might think taking down the management might be better for their futures he would probably just gamble on being saved if he killed her first. Her eyes noticed the mag field dropping, the little pinpricks of uv light vanishing and with a smile she pushed off forward towards him, firing with her right hand towards his face, unsure whether the bolts would effect the armour, but they might distract his vision enough so he didn't notice her clearing the ground between them.
At the last moment she pushed to her right, and brought her left hand up, aiming the backward held blade at the elbow joint of his amour. If she managed to make contact it would only be a slashing blow as she passed.

She was persistent he would give her that. He did not wait for the speech about teaming up to end. She did not want to tell him her family. So be it. He would not lose sleep over one more death at his hands. His gun had already been pointed directly at her and he simply put the required pressure on the trigger and sent a round flying straight to her chest. He may be a dead man but not in the same way that Auri was about to be. Even so he did not take any chances. If his round hit her, there was still a good chance that between the aiming, and the jerk of her body that a blaster bolt would fire from her gun and this time he did not have his field on.
As such he did something similar to Auri had moments before and moved into the duelists position. With a little hop to his right he would hopefully be out of the line of fire from her shot. He waited to see if the big bore round would be enough to put her down or if the fight in her would be enough to keep her going.

She felt a burning pain slice into her chest as her finger pressed the trigger of her blaster, it stopped her run forward, instead she stumbled into the ground, still firing, but the shots starting aimed at his head moved down his body and then into the ground. Auri crashed to her knees, her breath gasping, the slug had missed her heart but punctured her lung and she felt it collapsing. While it would be a painful wait as she would writhe and gulp at the air given time it would heal, but given the circumstances she probably didn't have that opportunity, he would finish her off and she would die here. The knife and blaster fell out of her hands as she crawled down onto the ground, her eyes watering in anger and agony at her situation. Lying on the ground she tried to find the words to talk, to say well done, but without the air in her lungs to spare instead she spluttered and coughed up blood.

Even as Auri fell she was still as deadly as any opponent was with a weapon. The first shot went wide of Xeonons head, had it been a slugthrower like his own weapon he would have heard the wisp of it as it fly by. Likewise the second shot and fourth shot missed as well. The third shot however hit him like a sledgehammer. His armour, no longer active still took the brunt of the shot but the energy was no longer repulsed nor was it spread out over a greater area. The shot hit home above his right hip, blackening and charring the red duraplast armour. The worst of it was under his armour.
Although the wound itself was cauterized by the intense heat his skin was burned and a fair amount of flesh was not where it was supposed to be. Had the damned chip not been in his neck removing his connection to the force he would have absorbed the bolt and the damage would be minimal. As it stood now, once he was out of here he would need to spend a while in a bacta bath. Hitting himself with the butt of his weapon directly where he was shot the pain of the punch focused him. It was something to center on. Something to help ignore the shock his body was trying to put him into.
Perhaps in another universe we will meet.
Walking forward wary of the fact that the woman could still find a way to shoot him he steadying himself with his sword using it as one would a cane.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Standing above her he paused but a heartbeat before driving the sword down towards where her heart would be. It was a shame to see something so beautiful die.

She was already choking and her vision showing spots of growing shadows as the man approached, she still managed to give him a slight sad smile as he held the sword above her. She simply winked and blow him a kiss as the sword entered her body, she felt it burn through her flesh and into her heart and in the seconds where her body realised that she was dying she fought to keep it from thrashing around. She would at least die with dignity, and silently told herself that if they did meet in another universe it would be him having the sword driven through his chest. With that all hope of life left her and she lay still in the dust.
