Here Dark Soul Stands

[Tynan Enid]

Having grown tired of hunting on Coruscant, she has set her mind to and had eaisly slipped into the cargo of another transport heading out. In her mind was a place she had only seen by given thought. Someone had dared to tip into her mind to pass along this image. And though the image itself was pleasing to some part of her mind, Tynan closed her eyes for only so long before finding herself in the darkness of space once again. The thought of being out among these brought such an idle enjoyment, she thought for a bare moment her heart would explode with what she had only known once in life- joy. Yes, true Tynan had been in space many a time- but only recently had she been able to truely choose to appreciate the darkened depths of this starfilled ocean.

Reguardless, there was little time for silly little fantasies- stepping into the cockpit of the transport she cleared her throat as the teal light of her lightsaber appeared. Turning, the two pilots paled- one began to speak and oddly his head seemed to simpy fall off. Tynan's eyes rested on the remaining pilot, who trembled as he raised his hands at the instant the soft wurr of the lightsaber went from where the co-piolet's head had been to underneath the pilot's chin. Tynan's voice was soft, sultry and dripping with her hate for the human half she had despised for so long, "You're a cute one."

Before the lightsaber eaisily burned through the chest of the pilot. No need to damage such lovely eyes. Removing the eyes, Tynan stored them in a countainer of small 'treasures' she have been keeping for so very, very long. Eaisily tapping in the cooridnates of the location, somehow knowing them from the faded and blurred image in her head. Resting her head on her palm, setting her lightsaber back into the holster, Tynan waited for a short while before heading into the cargo and pulling out what she pleased. Finding not much worth her time or consideration, excluding a few rare crystals and a new cloak as compared to her threadbare one.

Attention to Crew: Landing on Korriban in 5 minutes. Please locate seat and prepare for arrival.

Not long of a wait at all. Tynan yawned softly, eyes half open, she leaned against the side of the cargo and waited out the landing. This had better be worth it. Though- I suppose if anything, I could always start hunting about for something to tear up. The ship shuddered as it touched ground and Tynan movd to the door only after it had opened. The mixed scent of heated earth and warm winds flooded, arid and sharp scents stung her nose. Tainted eyes looked out before her and no emotion available, Tynan simply stood in the doorway and looked at what was before her.

[Darth Nexus]

She was a lucky and perceptive girl. Nexus quietly walked on the surface of Korriban, his robes flailing out behind him as a just of wind caught them. The bone white mask was there as always, giving him an inhuman look. He may have not been human to the average on looker, maybe something so much worse that even the Sith refused to let his face be seen. Maybe he was like the legends of old and was a force creature, or maybe he was just a normal human who liked masks. Whatever the reason the true reason would remain Nexus' to his grave, if he was going to be allowed a grave.

In the distance a ship appeared, just as he had predicted, she was here. He had felt the girl while on his return trip from Degubah, the results of the dark side nexus had yet to be fully felt but they were there. With a flick of his wrist he cleared away a few rocks from the ground, then sent them flying off in random directions to allow the ship a clear landing.

Moments later a female form appeared in the doorway of the ship, her dark cloak flailing lightly as Nexus' was in the hot wind of Korriban. Looking up at her with his yellow eyes one could almost see pleasure in them. He had a new Sith to control, another assassin at his disposal and he knew it. He had sent those images to her, those dark and promising images of Korriban. Showing her exactly what she wanted to see, power and gain. Here she could fuel her love of death and destruction. The fact that Nexus got a follower out of it only aided him.

"Tynan... welcome to Korriban."

[Tynan Enid]

Not having put the hood of the new cloak on, short raven hair flared with the movement of the wind. This place was filled with power she had not senced since the moment of her birth- and at that time it had been fading. Delicious and filling, this place already felt like a forbidden fruit she had long been waiting for. Such a terrible tease of power was enough to make her a little twitchy- though this was surpressed when her ears slowly recognized the sound of a voice. "Tynan... welcome to Korriban."

Looking down, orange eyes- long tainted with amber met those of a dimly glowing goldenrod- the pleasure she took from this place was now gone. Empty hatred took its place as her eyes narrowed. This skull masked bastard dare spoke her name? Some may not have seen it, but she could- human and just as she. However his power exceeded her own, this was someone not to be taken lightly and this was by first impression. How dare he say her name so freely! Anger bristled, her fists tightened and one hand pulled her lightsaber from the holster. The teal light slicing the heated air with it's own friction. Her voice bristled with none of her anger, instead a sharp tone of command sounded, "To you, I am Tynan Enid."

[Darth Nexus]

She was brash, more like a combat heavy assassin than the one he had sensed days ago. She would need to be broken to his will, not let roam freely like so many other Sith did. No for power to be eternal it had to be controlled, not allowed to blossom in bursts like the Sith of old had done. Nexus would learn from his previous teachers and control the flow of power.

"You are nothing."

Glancing above her a wave of force energy pressed her back against the doorway, a moment later it would relent and he would bring his gaze back to her. She had drawn her saber, he had shown her a saber fight was useless against him. He was a master of the force at his level. He would become a powerful force user in time, but for now he was limited by his position and his inexperience. Time would allow him to gain more powers and become a strong Dark Lord... and maybe even Dark Lord of the Sith.

"To you I am Darth Nexus, follow."

Nexus continued to stare her down, those golden eyes she wore were certainly unique. Many Sith took years of taint to gain those eyes. Many of the newest Acolytes lacked the pure yellow that Nexus had, his eyes were the purest of yellow, showing that for the past decade he had been tainted, threw and threw he had embraced it. Now here was someone who had also embraced her darker roots, allowed her hate and pain to fuel her. She was promising, although she still had to much spirit.

[Tynan Enid]

It was a new sensation being thrown against something by the force- she had done it many a time, but never had it been done to her. Fingers and palm digging into the gripping of her lightsaber, Tynan growled softly. The sound was almost a low hum, the note garbled but solid all in the same instance. His voice echoed with words though that hollow mask, "You are nothing."

The yellow of her eyes shimmered brightly as the force receeded, but she did not drop, standing steady on her booted feet, she announced to him as though he had not heard her the first time:

"I am Tynan Enid, to you, Darth Nexus."

There was a small inclination to her tone, not fear or anger- nor was it respect. Her voice held the defined challenge of 'You can't break a mustang.' But one thing she did do, which to anyone she had met in the past which would have killed them father than her own actions was withdraw her lightsaber, the teal light dissapearing and the column being secured in it's holster. But now her tone changed, one of the defiance she had nurtured for very long,

"I will follow whom I wish."

[Darth Nexus]

"You follow whom you are told, just as I do. For now you follow me."

With the word me being said another wave of force would roll over her, lighter this time but with a hint that this was only th4e beginning of the trouble for her until she bended to his will. He followed the orders of Pandoras and Malfius, that was it. While Pandoras wasn't so much a better Sith he had proved that he was a stronger Sith physically, That force scream still echoed i the recesses of Nexus' mind. A scream so horrid he thought his head would burst, many of his fellow acolytes had met that fate.

"Until you learn hat your place is below me you will be continually pushed around."

With each emphasized word Nexus would unleash another small wave. Ones she could push back against but not completely deffer. She wasn't a Force user like he was. To him the force was everything, light saber combat was a last resort that only the weak used. To him this was control, controlling the Force was the ultimate way to gain power and make the Sith eternal.

"Don't you understand yet Tynan, you are weak compared to the other acolytes. You're new to the Force, still learning to control it and weave it."

More Force pushes followed as he pressed her back more and more, each push becoming stronger and stronger. Sure it was taxing on Nexus but he didn't need the energy presently, he just needed to get his point across.

"Understand yet?"

One last wall would be at his strongest, unleashing a wave that bent the air itself in front of him.

[Tynan Enid]

Tyanan's booted feet slid back across the floor with each hit, not knowing how to defend against them, she simply kep her hands at her sides and allowed them to come. Yes, it was painful, no it wasn't a walk in the park at midnight- it was almost too much to bear and just when she thought he was done with his speeches and commands he gave one last one with more force than she could stand against. Her breath caught as she saw the air bend- the AIR bend, that was more power than she had ever seen, and in this case felt.

Tumbling backwards, she hit her head on one of the cargo boxes. Slightly dazed, she shook her head, slowly getting back up. No one had hurt her since- subconciously she touched the scar over her right eye and growled softly. Standing back up, she now hopped out of the ship, booted feet landing soudlessly on the ground. Stading sideways, giving this- what ever he was only a side profile, she looked at him from the corner of her eye, amber having taken nearly the entire iris now- the orange barely seeming to exsist around the edges, "I understand only what you have freely given, Darth Nexus."

[Darth Nexus]

"You'd do well to understand more than just PAIN girl."

Allowing his power to subside the Dark Lord walked slowly up the ship ramp, taking his tie approaching the woman. Such a rare breed, one so bold and rash yet so easily adaptable to power. She would make an excellent student for the Acolyte in the future. For now however she was a fellow student, and as such he wasn't allowed to take an apprentice.

"I assume you know how to fly this ship? Then get it 40 clicks due south of here, there you will find the Sith Temple and your new Master, Darth Malfius, Dark Lord of the Sith."

Nexus pushed passed the woman and made his way into the ships cargo hold. Along each wall were the standard emergency pull down seats. Pulling one of these seats down Nexus sat in it and crossed his arms, thinking. His eyes closed and the mask went dark inside. Now it looked as if a statue sat in the back of the cargo bay, a very real and very deadly statue that is.

[Tynan Enid]

Following behind him, only a quick flash in her midn of shih ka bobbing him while his back was turned though the thought was quickly dismissed when a small voice told her to wait until the right time. Thinking she was finally losing it, she touched her hand to her temple and pushed the voice aside- what a pain to lose one's sanity now. Nearly amber eyes looking Darth Nexus over, watching as he sat and closed his eyes. The temtation to try and remove his head was so great her hand rested on the grip of her lightsaber- though she continued to move past him and to the control panels.

Typing in the coordinates, the ship took off at a breakneck speed, though with the both of them sitting, it had no effect on them beyond a small jerk. Sitting back, Tynan let her arms dangle as the panging of small pain came and went here and there. After effects- interesting. She stored away the information for later, as she stretches and flexed where the aching occurred. She'd have her revenge on that thing soon enough!

[Darth Nexus]

Sitting there he could feel her hate, feel that she wanted him to die and feel her want for revenge. It was Nexus' place to sense out these things after all. She was still on his list of people to watch, then again there wasn't a single thing on his list he didn't watch. Everything was a threat and had to be assessed and dealt with properly. Right now though she was to injured to fight him and she was going to feel those effects for a good while.

"Relax your muscles, it'll help the healing."

Nexus' eyes snapped open as they landed on a small docking bay, next to the woman's ship there was small transport, Nexus' ship and the ship they would be using on there mission that Malfius had yet to assign and give release for. Oh well, Nexus was a patient man.

"Follow."

He said simply and plainly as he got up and headed out the door once more. With a hiss of leaking atmosphere Nexus stepped out onto the landing pad, several other Acolytes looked up to see him and quickly moved out of the way. The woman would get the same treatment since she was with Nexus.

Silently leading on he made his way across the pad and then down a flight of stairs. A long hallway, flight of spiraling down stairs, a door, a left, a right, another hallway, and finally a final flight of stairs carried the brooding Nexus down to his favorite part of the Academy, the prison cells. At the end of this hallway, lined by cells, was a room. This was Nexus' room and the home of his laboratory.

On the left side there were three rooms currently occupied. That of Nexus' slaves, and that of Darth Desavio, another of Nexus' promising charges.

"Pick any open room you like, this will be your home until I say otherwise. KNOCK before you enter my chambers or it will be the last thing you do."

Nexus walked down the hall and opened his door. For a brief instant, assuming Tynan had followed closely, she would be able to see a large room with a large bed and a wall full of books and holocrons, a lab door and a sparse floor.

"Get some rest."

[Tynan Enid]

She had followed, though she hadn't honestly been listening. These halls echoed with such energy and darkness, she couldn't begin to wrap her mind around it- even in a concious effort. The back of her neck tingled sharply, another pain. She flexed the muscles, it was best to strain them while they hurt. Made it difficult for them to be injured the next time this was to happen.

She made no notice of the others around her, or the path they took to get to the rooms, her muscles would do it for her at one point or another. She stopped when he did, only heard a few ofthe words he spoke and even less of the threatening tone in his voice.

As he left her, she saw only a little into his room, didn't care much. Walking down the hall, finding an empty room, the door opened and she looked around it as she stepped in, the door closing soundlessly behind her The bed was a twin, with dark gray sheets of soft fabric. Across from it rested a lonely looking bookshelf, which if she had her way would fill with ease. Her ability to read had always been important to her, you learned almost as much as actually going out and doing. Almost. Boots making very little sound as she walked across the uncarpeted floor, the unadorned walls making her think of so mych to do- but for now, she stripped the bed of the comforter and covered the only window. Putting the room into complete darkness.

Laying on the floor, curling up under the bed, Tynan lay on the floor, eyes half open as she drifted off into a very light sleep.
