Who: Tenel Ka Djo and Mara Jade Skywalker What: Even after her talk with Faith Tenel Ka can't let the idea go that she can somehow help Darth Caedus as well as Jacen Where: Downtown streets When 1am Rating TBD, Mara might hit her XD Status: Incomplete
The Hapan Queen knew it was a foolish plan, stalking through the streets so many nights spent chasing shadows. And the time not spent doing that was spent with Jacen. It was starting to get to her, all of this. It was wholeheartedly unfair in her opinion for this city or whoever was running things to bring Caedus here. With Jacen here too it was cruel and it was conflicting and she didn't know how much longer she could do this.
It was just another battle.
Another dead thing she knew shouldn't exist but this one was that little bit stronger, faster and it took advantage of her one arm, slashing at her across that side before she realized what was happening. She forced shoved it across the street furiously before staring down at her hand in shock.
She did not use anger to channel the Force. Not even now. Not even when things were so confusing.
Especially now.
She couldn't kill it, the vampire. At that moment she couldn't take its semblance of life. Because she would take it in anger. And if she remembered anything of Master Skywalkers lessons it was that such an act took a terrible toll.
But as it ran at her again Tenel Ka wondered how she was going to stop it without killing it.
