*Janus snapped his fingers, and next to Noktu there is a huge explosion, exactly where the ball had hit. The explosion, being so close to Noktu, was in excapable, and knocked him off his feet, and no doubt burned him some what. The entire plateau shook with the force of it..*

The sense inside him warned him of the attack but he was to slow physically to dodge, entrusting himself in the force, Noktu curled up in a ball and covered himself with the force hoping to shield himself from the blast... the blast struck and he blew into the air, high, but still sticking to his form he landed with a crunch, then rose to his feet... his cloak had been burned off, his tunic below, was in tatters at the top but still in one piece at the bottom.

Burns covered his face but the pain did not phase him, his scars on his cheek and chin shown bright red now, reopened partially by the burn, and now other scars were visable on his chest and shoulders. An assessment of himself took moments as the force flew through him assuring him he was ok, and with that assurence Noktu rose to his feet, his stern expression impeded in his face.

Saying nothing he did this, then his blade reactivating as he tapped it witht he force, he charged Janus using the force to speed him and hopfully guide his movements as he charge blind to everything else but trusted in the dark powers of the force he had given his soul to...

*janus watched his brother aproach, with no fear in his heart. His brother was weak, using a full frontal attack on a man far more powerful than him. Janus lifted one hand, and a rock floated into the air, flying toward Noktu. Instead of hitting Noktu, it hit Noktu's hand, the one holding the saber, and knocked it away, causing Noktu to be quite off guard. Janus stepped forward, into Noktu's approach, and gave him a swift punch to the gut. He then grabbed Noktu's saber hand by the wrist. His mind quickly opened to the force, and his strength increased greatly. With this assistance, he simply smashed Noktu's wrist.*

"Can you fight without your saber Noktu?"

*Janus let go and jumped back about 5 feet, to give Noktu plenty of room.*

"@#%$..." Noktu cursed as he fell covering his wrist... "nice but I dont NEED my wrists..." then dropping the saber totally, then pulling out another saber, which he activated. Noktu then used the force to raise the sabers off the ground and slowly circle Janus then... both simaltaniously take swings at him...

*With a flick of his wrist, Noktu's sabers were brushed aside as a gust of wind came from behind Janus.*

"You must rememeber how easy it is for me to move those from me. Any offencive you might mount without a body behind would simply be ineffective. You should know better."

*In a flash, Janus' own saber was striking forward. Not at Noktu's blades, but at Noktu himself, whom had no defencives up, since both his sabers were currently floating behind him.*

Noktu's sabers blew toward Janus's back but his defense was elsewhere as Noktu's hands rose and from his good hand a bolt of lightning blew into the face of Janus, just at the same moment his sabers blew in from behind... "I am not defenseless and weak Janus, you should know that by now"

"Heh."

*Janus barely felt the pain as he opened his mind to the force. He dropped back about 3 feet.*

"Try this one, Malice seemed to enjoy it..."

*Janus concentrated the force around his unsespecting brother, and before a single movement could be made, Noktu was under a high gravitational pull, like that of a planet 5 times the size of the one they are on...*

Noktu dived to his belly and instead of the force pushing down on a small part of him concentrating it, it was suddenly spread out... and as to slow it further... Noktu crawled step by step foot by foot towards Janus...then smiled as Janus watching him get the affects of his attack was suddenly attacked by two floating sabers from behing... that struck in rapid succession.

*Janus simply ducked, but he had lost concentration on his current onslaught.*

"Tricky brother."

*As the sabers wizzed past his head, Janus reached up both hands, and caught them easily. He then deactivated them both.*

"I prefer a straight forward battle."

*He attached both sabers to his own belt, then put out both hands, palm out. He used his palms as focal points, as he channeled the dark side of the force into himself, and bent it to his purposes.*

"I was contemplating this very spell when you arrived."

*Infront of his palms appeared a large ball, about the size of a basketball. They pulsated with the power of the darkside, as Janus laid the final workings on the spell. He was setting it to Bane's presence, once unleashed, this ball would follow him to the end of the galaxy and beyond, until it struck, and it would strike with the concentrated power of 5 thermal detonators.*

"Enjoy"

*Janus unleashed the ball...*

"How wonderful brother..." Noktu thrust his hands out, calling the sabers to him, his pull was so strong that is ripped Janus's belt into pieces... and sabers flew to him as Noktu ran... upon reaching the edge of the cliff... he swan dived into the water... the ball of dark energy right behind... as he fell, his hand turned slightly and from it a small bolt of lightning erupted striking the ball... the explosion was big sending Noktu faster into the water, which he hit with a smack...his saber following him.
