Saturday: Nemesis Island

[sonofmogh.livejournal.com]

It's amazing how different the atmosphere changes once you cross over the causeway to Nemesis island. True, it might be the same temperature and all but just setting foot on the island can give you goosebumps.

And if you meet up with of the residents here you might attacked for no good reason.

Which, sadly, is the slogan of the local tourism board.

Feeling really out of practice, she managed to only get knocked back a step and a half or so, though it did leave her more open than she'd like. And now she was starting to wonder how exactly she was supposed to get out of this.

Jacen raised his lightsaber in one hand, exerting effort into the Force to wrench a rusted slide away from the playground and send it flying towards Jaina.

There was really no way for her to avoid it, and a moment later she was sprawled under the metal, feeling pain shooting from more than a couple places. She didn't have time to deal with that, though, and with aid from the Force, shoved the slide off of her, suddenly more concerned with where her lightsaber had gone.

It was time to end this, so Jacen advanced once again on his sister to deal a killing blow to her throat while she weaponless and on the ground.

It wasn't the kindest thing in the world, but she was an insect to be tread upon and his boots didn't need to get dirty.

Jaina could see her lightsaber from here, but she knew in that second that there was no way she could get it before it was all over. Even if she could, the simple act of breathing hurt, and she didn't think she could move quickly enough for it to do any good.

So she did the only thing she could think to do, drawing on the Force not out of anger, but out of pure self-defense, hating every second of what she was doing, and reached out her hand, sending blue bolts of lightning into her brother.

His outright surprise was his downfall. Caedus had failed to expect Force lightning from Jaina and so was unprepared when the fire crackled and shot through his body. His own weapon fell from his grasp as he reached a hand to work on redirecting the lightning.

She remembered what Kyp had told her, that if she could create it, she could dispel it, and hoped that she didn't have to. She got to her feet slower than she would have liked, otherwise not concerned with the pain in her chest and how much it hurt to breathe, and drew her lightsaber to her other hand.

And because she wasn't stupid, she didn't even chance a look back at him as she turned to try and run away.

Raging at his own failure, he decided it wasn't worth his time to follow her. She was insignificant to his plan.

Instead, Caedus called his lightsaber back to him and and stalked off, chopping the chains of the swings as he headed the opposite direction.
