Hurricane standing outside the gates at the academy, in deep thoughts about coming back to it all, sensed somehting. It was quite blurry in his mind. But he understood it after a few moments.
Hurricane turned around at once to find a familiar face drawing near, it looked tired, and near death.
"Logray!?"
With surprise he ran towards the wounded ewok, to help in any way.

Jordan could see the Academy over the tops of the trees. The gash on his arm and his broken arm were starting to become more painful. Logray needed a medic very soon.
When Jordan reached the end of the trees, he saw the Academy and he saw a man running towards both he and Logray. Logray had called for "help" and this man must have heard it. The person looked familiar.
Jordan jumped down from the trees, and ran to the Temple. The man kept running towards them but Jordan knew he would do no harm.
"Logray needs a medic. And there are two Sith Knights in the forest behind us. We need to find some more Jedi to help us fend them off."

Lupercus burst through the forest edge not 20 metres behind the fleeing Jedi. Chikami himself was a single step behind Lupercus, a hungry expression in his eyes.
With a snarl Lupercus pulled out his other sabre, and ignited them both, sprinting towards the the bleeding ewok and the crippled human.
"More sport Chikami! And i wanna finish off that Jedi cripple!"
As the faster Sith closed on the hobbling jedi, Lupercus lept up into the air and with a swish of an airbourne sumersault, kicking the crippled Jedi who carried the ewok in the square of his back, driving him to the ground. The ewok shot out of his ands and landed in between the cripples prone body, and the approaching from of the newcomer.
"Why run Jedi? You cannot escape the inevitable."
The Sith lashed out in a savage kick, the wounded mans lungs burning savagely from the impact and the exhaustion of running. With a glare of ice, Lupercus brought his right sabre up and swung it down to deliver the killing blow through his chest.

As the door crashed forward, Kahn lept adeptly to his feet, saber in hand. Even as the voice spoke, the blue blade came to life as the Jedi Master adopted a defensive stance, his saber angled horizantally in front of him.
"You have no quarrel with myself, or my Master. You were not invited to my home, and you are not welcome. Leave, Sith."
The words held a sort of inner reserve of strength as Kahn spoke them, his stare determined and unblinking as he watched the figure.
Reaching out, Kahn was grateful to feel the Light Side flood into him and around him. In a sense, a part of him was glad to have something to fight, something physical. When Amalia had been infected with the Dark Side, it had made him feel helpless, knowing that he could use only words to try and combat the Darkness. Now, however, he had something that he could actually strike at, if need be.
The Jedi Master was standing in the middle of the living room, effectively blocking the hallway that led to his room. He knew that he would fend off the Sith, or die trying.

Coruscant's atmosphere...
There was too much to do, with too little bit of time. Zeta's ship sat in wait, hovering within Coruscant's atmosphere. He'd already been given his clearance to land, but he still was undecided about where he wanted to go. He would not land before then.
We must plan, Skywalker. I will not have yet another failure fall into my hands...

The Sith Master chuckled.
"I have many quarrels with you, not the least of which is you being a Jedi.. Also, when you address me.. do it with at least a semblance of respect. My name is not Sith, after all, I did use your name. Infact, you can just save time and call me.. master."

The kicks hurt! When Jordan was kicked the first time he let go of Logray. The Ewok landed a couple of meters in front of Jordan. Jordan knew that the other Jedi would see if he was alright. But Jordan hoped that the other Jedi would come back and help him fight.
Jordan was flowing with Force energy. It was pratically coming out his ears. He was calm and at peace, though death looked him in the eyes. Jordan was on the ground and he saw death: the Sith and his two lightsabers.
But with the Force as his ally and the Force controlling all of his movements, he was not outmatched. The sabre swung down coming in at Jordan's chest. Jordan knew what was going to happen if he didn't do anything. He rolled to his right. The saber pushed into the ground. But the Sith had his other lightsaber coming in for another blow.
Jordan forsaw that and was already coming up. On his way up he swung his leg out around and hooked his foot behind the Sith's leg, the Sith would now be the one who would be on the ground.

Hurricane grabbed his light saber in a rage, and igniting it.
"None of you shall bring any futher harm to the wounded one! Not without going up against me first!"
Hurricane stood firmly infront of the wounded ewok guarding him, prepared to ignite the second side of his light saber at an instance.

The sleeping Jedi awoke with a jolt, beads of sweat running down and over her entire body.
Had she only just been dreaming?
The voices, they had seemed so real. Her head hurt.
Amalia tried her best to get out of bed, feeling lightheaded, she struggled to stand on her own two feet.
I...I want out...
She cried out, though not loud enough to where anyone could hear her, a soft moan escaping her lips.
The pain, it would not go away.
The confusion, still there.
Something else was wrong, outside of her room.
Kahn, someone was with him. A Darksider, strong.
Quickly she turned her body toward the direction of the door, not moving any other way except to turn to look.
She wanted to help him. She was much too weak to do so, not with her mind in the condition that it was in.
She reached out with the force, offering words to her apprentice.
Kahn, I wish I could offer my services to you, but I can not in such a state as this. You've helped me a great deal today, and I'll never forget it. Perhaps this will be your greatest test of all, to face one of the more powerful Sith within the universe, a Sith Master. I remember the hateful words I said to you today, but those words were false. You are much stronger now, my faith is with you, my apprentice. You will make it through this day...
Amalia looked blankly toward the door for a moment or more before turning to look around the room, her eyes falling into the open window....
Freedom....
The Jedi closed her eyes, remembering all the day's events. Everyone and everything.
She had done enough reflecting now to know what she wanted.
...She had been seeking such a thing ever since her battle with Malice had ended.
Peace and quiet.
Be well, my apprentice. Until we see one another again...
Saying nothing more, with quick motions the Jedi unclipped Kahn's saber from her belt, placing it on the Jedi Master's bed.
She took a quick moment to glance at her own saber and then headed for the window.
It would not matter how fast her apprentice would run, she would be gone when he entered the room.
***
With Amalia's presence only somewhat masked by the force, the Jedi set off into the deeper, hidden parts of the forest....
....where fate and the man she loved would find her....

As his sabres darted in lacking their usual speed, Lupercus' attention being held by the new padawan. This one he recognised, having had his slicers hack Corran Horns computer both times Lupercus had defeated him.
The newcomer was a Skywalker, and despite his bravado had barely received any training. He hadn't been seen in the galaxy in a while.
The struggling padawan, crippled and bleeding, attempted to counter, hooking his leg behind Lupercus'. It was a feeble attempt, Lupercus merely holding his foot in place, not budging. The padawan had reached the ends of his endurance. Lupercus' eyes narrowed as he saw Skywalker assume a defensive position near the passed out ewok. His lips drew up at the edges as he replaced a sabre and rose his hand, twisting them in a harsh choking grip. The Darkness flooded his mind as Skywalker felt an intense choking of his throat, his face becoming white.
