Well, they always lie to us. But who's they, well that's a good question

For the formation, well that's kinda it.

Well, As for that Slade's move, I totally wasn't expecting that. I'll think of something

I suspect Ilum is our next stop after Ordo?

Post a little later

Right Tnx for clearing that up
----------------------

Mat was deep into thinking about what has Slade said. George frowned a little because the vampire said for them that they are not smart, while Leina was watching him. It was obvious she was studying him. And she gave Slade a few glances as if she was comparing the two of them.

Finally George interrupted the silence. "Then I guess coming here was a mistake. Let's go." He started walking but then Mat said: "Hey, but what about that jamming device? Should we find it? I mean... someone has put it there for a reason. I don't think Mandalorians would want to jam their own comms."

George turned to look at him, as did everyone else. "And wait for more of those golden things to come? Not a chance Mat." Mat simply nodded. And the Jedi turned to Safira, intensifying his Force Shield...

He didn't really distrusted her, just there are some things she mustn't know. Or he was just telling that to himself. Leina was still looking at him, and that made him feel a little uneasy. But he focused his look on the blind woman.

Mat came back with the rest of the soldier who formed a circle around their leaders. He looked a little concerned as if that jamming device was still troubling him. He felt like it's somehow important...

"Safira you know where we can find those, Sand Dwellers?" George asked her.

George made a sly smile saying: "Do what you do best Slade. I suggest you ambush them when they come to us. We'll hold the line here." George waited for him to nod before he went towards the rest of the soldiers that gathered here.

Mat jumped down from the building mumbling something to himself. Leina and Safira followed George. The Jedi just smiled to all that. Battle awaited.

They arrived at the opening where the rest of soldiers gathered. "Men!" George shouted. "Form the line and draw your swords." Some of the soldiers gave a surprised look at George. "These Orik'baar can't be killed by blasters. You must stab them through hearts or cut their heads. Whichever you prefer." The soldiers took their swords forming a line. On the other end of the clearing, Orik'baar began to show up. Some of them pointed towards the black soldiers.

"Steady men! Wait for them to charge!" George took his lightsaber from his belt and started twirling it around his hand. Mad already held his saber, and so did Leina and Safira. George hoped that Slade wouldn't attack prematurely. The Orik'baar started running. Their golden armor was shining from the suns glare, but it soon stooped because the dark clouds concealed the sun.

George thought some of the soldiers would be nervous but they were good. He will see them how they will handle themselves. Just as Orik'baar started to charge dozen meters from them, George force jumped into the air surprising everyone. He landed just in the middle of golden soldiers stomping the ground and creating a powerful kinetic pulse sending the closest Orik'baars flying, while others somehow resisted it. But still, their charge was broken and Mat saw the opportunity and started shouting: "Charge! Charge!". He activated his saber and force jumped towards the first Orik'baar stabbing him through the back.

Soldiers clashed, and men in black armors proved more skillful than their enemies. Leina followed them entering in a duel with two soldiers. Her violet saber gracefully clashing with their swords .

George activated his saber and stabbed the soldier that was on the ground. He raised his head just in time to see an Orik'baar getting up and coming towards him. He entered a fight with him thinking "Where is that guy Slade?"

-------------------------------------------------
Some fighting finally

Right...
----------------------------------

George and Leina were walking through the desert towards the Mandalorian outpost. The soldier that Mat sent was leading them. George turned around for a moment to check if Safira was following them. He was still holding that Force Shield, so no one could read what was going on in his mind.

He remembered some old battles. He didn't participate them but it looks like one of the older himselfs did. He remembered how he hunted vampires with his fellow Jedi. He lost many of his friends to them.... Something came to his mind, what if he could r....

"George?" Leina interrupted his thinking. He frowned a little but coldly said: "Yes, My Lady?" She didn't seem upset by his behavior, but she was a noble. You can expect anything from them.

"What happened while you were in that stone?"
George started cursing in his head. He wasn't ready for that yet, so he annoyingly answered: "Nothing!" Leina's expression didn't change even a little, so that annoyed him even more, but then she said: "What do you mean nothing? Something happened inside, George. What was it?"

George snapped, he stopped and started yelling at her: "Look! Nothing happened inside, okay! I just saved you from yourself! And leave me alone..." He continued following the soldier not giving Leina time to say anything and making his Force shield even stronger. The soldier didn't pay attention to what was going on, that wasn't his thing so he just minded his own business...

Leina was surprised, she didn't expect him to snap. But she knows that something must have happened inside that stone. And he wants to hide it. Why? Safira caught up with her so they start walking together. "Hello Safira, my name is Leina." If she was upset about George, she didn't let that show. "I'm sorry about George and Slade. They are just like two separate worlds. Almost totally different from one another." Leina looked carefully at Safira while they were following George and the soldier.

----------------------------------------
You may choose for them the enter the mandalorian outpost (Mat and the rest of the soldiers are waiting for them just outside the entrance. And Slade probably.) Or you can let me do it in my next post

Yeah it seems that way. But things still need to develop so we could fully see what's going on with George. And with Slade...
-----------------------

"That won't do any good, Safira. We must explore the Mandalorian outpost" George said with his eyes still focused on Slade. He hated that guy even more now. His hand was playing with the barrel of the lightsaber, anxious to turn it on and go into duel. But now was not the time for it.

Leina seemed to have calmed a little, but that was only on the outside. Inside she was greatly fearing for George. She knew who killed his parents and that he wouldn't tolerate vampires easily. But now, he couldn't tolerate it at all, though she agreed with him up to a point. She was disgusted by Slade now.
She sensed someone approaching the scene. It was one of her soldiers. The soldier didn't pay attention to the obvious tense situation. She expected him to go to her, but instead he went to George!

"Master Kwei." Soldier bowed to him. "Mat sent me to escort you all to the mandalorian outpost.. We found some wild beasts, but they ignored us. Though he's not sure how long that will last." George nodded opening his mouth to say that they should move out, and then he blinked. Something was wrong. "Why didn't Mat contact us over the comm?"

Soldier expected that so he simply answered. "We have a problem with our comms. It seems that something from the outpost is jamming out signal, probably a signal jammer of some kind."

George looked at Riordan and Leina. She couldn't notice anything that would give away what was going on in his head. "We should go... And quickly." His eyes met with Riordans. This will escalate if things are not settled soon.
---------------------------------------------

I thought that we have spent too much time by the ship. Do what you will though. ;D

candidate

George made a long long to Riordan, like he wanted to say that this is the reason vampires should be killed, before turning his attention back to Slade.

"What's that Slade? Your evil nature got the better of you?" He spoke out pointing at the corpses. "Those aren't Mandalorians I hope. We're here to help them." Then he looked at Kain. "And what did you do to him? It got a little out of hand?" George smiled evilly...

Leina was disgusted by the sight of Slade and she looked away and looked at George instead. She noticed a look that he gave to Riordan. She wondered what that meant. "Enough you two! We needn't argue now!" But George didn't even look at her, and she dared not to look at bloodied Slade. She hated that he had to feed on other people.

--------------------------------------------
Wow... The situation is getting a little tense. Someone needs it to cool it down.

Try to find a matching head. If not... Skip it xD

Hmmm... Strange... (again)
-------------------------------------

George became aware of his surroundings again, so he created a Force Shield. No one will be able to read him know. He touched his saber to calm his mind and his face became emotionless again. He must watch what he does. He already gave away much by speaking in that Vampire language. He spoke out, chosing his words carefully. "Vampires are never what they were, and they cannot go back to their past lives. They must be killed..." The icy note in his voice surprised even him, but he didn't let that show. He must be tougher than ever.

"Jedi don't attack first. You could have asked for help instead of trying to demand it. Why did you need our help." His look demanded an answer.

Leina now approached them to hear what Safira has to say. She was concerned because raised his Force Shield again, protecting his emotions to be sensed by Force Users that had that kind of Power. She was one of them. The fact that he did that pointed that he had something to hide. She must find out what that is...

You missed Riordan's part. But it's not a big deal. Here ya go, your turn
