Tales of the {Jedi}
Then twin suns were at their zenith, their rays mercilessly beating down on the city of Mos Eisly. At the edge of the city, in a small landing bay open to the sky, stood three cloaked and hooded figures seemingly unperturbed by the Sun beating off them and the heat blasted sand that made up the ground beneath their feet. They were still, so still that they could have been mistaken for Statues except for the slight movements of their cloaks in the breeze.
The figure to the right moved suddenly facing the figure in the center, “Ender, he has arrived.” They moved closer to the walls of the inclosure, looking up at the sky, moments later out of the glare of the suns, a small ship descended its highly tuned engines making barely a whisper of sound as it came to rest in the center of the landing bay. The ramp of the highly modified WUD-500 Star Yacht lowered and two guards wearing light cortosis ore armor descended taking up positions on either side of the ramp. Glideing down the ramp behind them, Silver hair glowing in the light of the twin suns, Darth Miles took up a position a few feet in front of his guards as two more descended behind him and took positions alongside the others.
Ender, Corran and Tigeress stepped for to meet him, drawing their hoods back the formed a semi-circle in front of Darth Miles, “You have come,” Ender said, his eyes never leaving the silver eyes of the Echani Sith Lord, “Only one of us will leave this place alive”. Miles face showed confidence as he replied: “You are the one that will fall, I have trained from childhood in combat and melee weapons.” He gestured to the black cortosis armor he wore, “You will never even have a opportunity to cut through this armor, though I must admire your bravery {Jedi}”.
Throwing off his cloak Ender and Miles stepped towards each othe, both igniting Red, double-bladed lightsabers. Miles attacked first, beating at Enders defenses as he parried frantically. Miles drove Ender back his blows almost too fast too follow. “I wish I was the one out there” Tigeress said clenching her teeth, “Enders not fast enough to match a Echani force users speed”. Looking on thoughtfully Corran said, “Its not their speed that is the problem, Echani are adept at predicting their opponants moves even without force powers, with them... they are very tough opponents to fight.” Looking at Corran, Tigeress suddenly grinned, “Sure your not part Echani yourself? You seem to be good at predicting people’s actions and when you really let go your almost as good as me.” Raising a eyebrow Corran replied, “Last tournament we had who’s the one that won?” Ignoring Corran, Tigeress turned back to the fight as Ender blocked and locked his saber with Miles. The strained against each other and Ender’s superior strength begin to pay off as he pushed his opponents saber back towards Miles face. Grunting, Miles kicked out, Ender blocked with his hip then suddenly ducked the sudden change throwing Miles off balance, using the force Ender blasted sand into his opponents face and spun into a flurry or kicks, punches and slashes becoming a human whirlwind. Even temporarily blinded Miles managed to block Enders attack and using the force leapt to the top of his ship reubbing the sand out of his eyes. “You want to play that game do you?” Miles snarled, “I can play that way too.” Raising a hand, Miles sent the four pikes that his guards had been holding spinning at Enders head, Ender leapt over two of them and whirled his saber blocking the other two, then stareing in shock as both blades on his lightsaber went out. Miles laughed in glee “Those Pikes were made out of cortosis ore, your lightsaber is temporarily disabled, plenty of time to kill you!”. Rushing forward, Miles whirled his saber, the double blades becoming a blur, “Now you die!”. Ender fell to his knees as Miles stood over him, gloating Miles said: “Thats right, bow to me”, Ender suddenly looked up, and begin to laugh, Miles stared at him momentarily confused then looked up as a shadow loomed over them, “How” he managed to gasp before his own ship crashed down on his head and Ender somersaulted away. There was a silence, then Ender turned to the guards of the deceased Miles, “Looks like you four are stranded, unless of course you want to join {Jedi} that is, we could use you.”
The guards looked at each other, then one of them stepped forward, “The agreement was that if you defeated Miles, {SW} would be annexed by {Jedi}, therefor, since you won, we will be happy to join, my name is Ganner Krieg, a Elite Knight of the former {SW} Protectorate.” The other guards stepped forward and dropped to one knee before Ender, and took the {Jedi} oath.
On the way back the the hanger where the {Jedi} Shuttle and Starfighter were, Corran and Tigeress complemented Ender on his victory agaisnt Miles. “That was a very well timed trick you pulled on Miles.” Corran said. “You were great, but I could have done it more gracefully” Tigeress grinned. Ender laughed dryly “Im sure you could have”.
The Twin suns of Tatooine were sinking over the Horizon as the {Jedi} shuttle lifted out of its hanger bay and Corran took up escort position in his custom made {Jedi} starfighter. Both vessels seemed to hover an instant over the hanger bays they had been in, then the blazed off into the sky, to another battle, another story...
