As Kenshin saw the crack form near them, he grabbed the sleeping bags and used the Force to leap back a few paces to land beside Ky-Vin. He dropped the sleeping bags beside the pack and stood ready to face whatever came.
Exploration of Ambria (Kenshin only)
OOC: Whoops, posted twice. Ignore this one.
A large portion of the canyon wall was giving way. With every large thumping sound, shards of rock gave way. A large cloud of dust was forming where the stone was fracturing.
It felt like forever, but it took only a few instants.
*THUDD* *THUDD* *THUDD*
A few more chunks of rock were launched outwards. And through the dust, the Jedi could see something large emerging from the side of the canyon.
Ky-Vin squinted to see it clearly. As the thing emerged from the whole it had created, it made a horrible sound. It was like a scream and a snarl, so loud that Ky-Vin felt himself shudder a bit.
The creature slunk down across the rubble and debris. It was a long serpent-like thing, with black scales that glistened in the moonlight. It had a long neck and arrow-shaped head, with eyes like slits and a beak-like snout filled with teeth. Its tail swung back and forth as it stalked forward on its powerfully built legs.
Ky-Vin found himself backing up further. He focused on regaining his control and quieting his emotions. The sheer presence of the dark side in this creature was astounding. Ky-Vin had never felt anything like it.
He looked over at Kenshin. At the same time, he activated his lightsaber and the blade sprang to life with its characteristic sound. It bathed the creature in green light, which hissed as it prepared to attack.
OOC: Remember, you can control the creature too. Have fun with it. :)

Kenshin blinked at the creature. It was odd looking to be sure. But it wasn't its looks that concerned him, it was the odd presence of the darkside in it that did. Strong too. He wondered if it was intelligent or was acting on instinct.
He decided to see if he could calm it down and opened his mind to the creature. He sent calm and soothing thoughts to it via the Force. His hand rested on the hilt of his lightsaber at his side though.

OOC: No taming this one, hes a dark side dragon :)
IC:
Ky-Vin watched as the creature turned toward Kenshin. What was Kenshin doing?
Kenshin stood there, and Ky-Vin could feel that he was trying to soothe the creature via the Force. Then, Ky-Vin could feel a surge of dark side energy, and Kenshin just stood there, as if in a trance.
It appeared that it had taken control of him!
The beast was coming so close to him, poised to strike.
"Kenshin!" Ky-Vin shouted, but Kenshin just stood there. So, Ky-Vin instinctually raced over and leapt in front of Kenshin, his lightsaber flashing in front of the serpent's snout. It reared back, snarling in fury.
"Snap out of it, Kenshin...." he said hurriedly.

Kenshin tried to calm the beast, sending tranquil thoughts to the creature. But suddenly a huge wave of dark energy hit him and he fell into a whirlpool of confusion and frustration. Current events began playing though his mind.
Suddenly there was a green flash and a shout. Kenshin shook his head and noticed the voice was Ky-Vin's and it sounded urgent. He looked up to see the creature writhing and seething in fury.
With the Force, the hilt at Kenshin's side flew into his hands and its sky-blue blade hummed into life.
"Sorry about that..."
He said hurriedly as he prepared himself for an attack from the serpent-like creature.

Ky-Vin didn't answer. He understood what the creature was doing. As he stood eye to eye with it, it was attacking him, not physically, but through the Force.
A raspy voice spoke to him in his mind, and Ky-Vin could feel the power of the dark side growing inside of himself. 'Yes....I can see what you desire.....accept it....it is a gift....give in....give in to the dark side!'
"Never!" Ky-Vin shouted, and he called upon the Force to push the creature's commands from his head. His thoughts focused like a barrier to keep the creature from influencing him.
The creature roared in anger, its hot breath hit the Jedi. Then it pounced on them.
Ky-Vin tried to dive out of the way.

Kenshin rolled foward, dodging the creature's hot breath. He then suddenly sprang up, his sky blue blade slashing at the beast's lowered throat.
OOC: Feel free to type more than that you know :) You can tell what happens to the creature too.
IC:
The creature swiveled its neck away from Kenshin's attack, bringing up its powerful front legs at the same time. The blue blade flashed across its foreleg. The creature roared in pain, its leg was badly hurt and Ky-Vin could smell the creature's flesh burning.
He got up and move torward it. It seemed like the creature could sense his attack, because it turned and whipped its tail right across at him.
Ky-Vin leapted upwards and the tail snapped beneath him, it was so powerful it could have broke him in two.
Then the scaly beast leapt onto Kenshin with its razor-sharp teeth and claws.

OOC: Erm...okay.
IC:
As Kenshin saw the creature's head plummet foward to eat him whole, he gathered the Force and rolled out of the way. He heard a loud click as the creature's jaws snapped together, empty. Kenshin took this opprotunity to stand and leap out of the way.
The padawan then pushed off of a canyon wall and charged at the creature's back leg. He was going to see if he could cripple it.
Kenshin's lightsaber blade flashed infront of him as he slashed.
