Spar (Dio vs Nichos)

[Nichos Marr]

"You must attack more! A Sith will not be easily weakened unless you show some offence. The best defense can sometimes be offense."

Nichos looked at Dio a few feet away. Suddenly, a wind gathered and pushed the Padawan back.

"Remember you must be ready for everything. Always have good footing."

[Dio Blackmoon]

*He quickly learned his mistake. He rolled from the blast of the wind and did a quick leap to Nichos's side, where he slashed and jabbed quickly. This time, he did not draw back. He continued to slash and block and parry, and attacked and defended continuously. He did not stop; he was constantly in motion. No rest in battle, anyway. He continued to attack and parry.*

[Nichos Marr]

Nichos blocked with extra speed, calling on the Force.

"You must learn to attack with fury."

He found an opening and kicked Dio in the belly. The Padawan dropped back.

"Remember the Force is your ally. Use it."

[Dio Blackmoon]

*He took the words to heart. The kick hurt, but he blocked out the pain with the Force. He called on the Force silently and without indication. In a second, he was off, spinning and attack with a great speed. It looked chaotic, but it was the most effective, powerful attack he had ever effected. He was a blur of motion attacking without relenting, never tiring, a perpetual blur of motion.*

[Nichos Marr]

Nichos fell back against the wall. It was quite a suprise this surge of energy. He rolled out of the way and stood up. He de-ignited his saber and threw it aside, wiping the sweat from his face.

"Excellent Dio. We will start training again tomorrow. For now, have some rest. But be prepared for tomorrow. You'll be learning some new Force techniques."

[Dio Blackmoon]

"Yes, master. I think I will stay and practice my technique some more."
