9 Jedi Temple 4

~9 years later~

{Narrator POV}

In a private training room a tall man with grey tattooed skin and large pointed horns is sparring with a combat droid. His long wavy black hair shines as he narrowly blocks a slash at his left side with his training saber, while using the other saber to swing for the droids knee. Having no option to block the droid jumps back in an attempt to create some space.

Unfortately for the droid the man uses the force to speed up his movements and closes the distance quickly. Successfully landing a rapid onslaught of attacks against the poor droid, up, down, left, right it's as if there were no end to them.

Seeing a gap in the mans, defence the droid sharply capitalizes on the opportunity cleaving his saber towards its opponents head, but before it could reach the man locked both his lightsabers in an 'x' shape blocking the saber aiming for his head.

Before the droid could do anything else, he kicks the droids knee joint knocking it off balance while pushing his locked lightsaber to the side with his immense physical strength. As the droids lightsaber is pushed to the side, he span round and brought the right handed lightsaber across the droids neck successfully destroying the droid.

Switching his training sabers off he picks up the decapitated droids heads and brings it over to the body that was currently sprawled out over the floor.

{Lycan POV}

"Good hustle mate, I'll get you fixed up in a jiffy" I said while begging to fix the droid with the tools on my utility belt.

"Master you really need to be more careful, this is the third time today you've fixed me" the body complained in a masculine voice. The sound matrix is installed in the torso of the droid so it could still talk to me while I fixed it.

"I know Wire but I can't help but get too excited when you give me such a good fight" I replied while reconnecting wires.

"I suppose that's true Master Lycan, I do have the best combat programming in the order" Wire said while sounding proud of its self.

"Whatever man just remember who programmed you when you hit the big leagues" I spat sarcastically as I rolled my eyes at the pretentious droid.

"Relax Master I would never leave my maker unless you told me too".

Wire was a holodroid I made over the years that I spent here. Back when I first came the others in my clan were a pain in the ass to speak to, you know being young kids and that so I either spent my free time with extra training or building him.

I had to get Vos, and sometimes even Shaak Ti and Plo Koon to bring me droid parts and bits of software I needed whenever they visited me. Still even with all their help it still took me 3 years mixed of failed attempts to get the droid working. It was so fucking annoying when I first started because I had never done anything like it before and kept building and programming it wrong, but eventually I got the hang of it and it then ended up being my favorite pass time when I wasn't training or reading shit at the jedi archives.

Nowadays if I set Wire to his highest combat setting he would well and truly stomp me in a pure lightsaber duel. The precision and skill he has with a the blade is unreal, which makes training with him such good practice. He can even use a blaster with some skill which makes it easier to train my deflection abilities on something more realistic than those flying spheres.

Over the years I've learned the basics of every lightsaber form but leaned towards form 5 and 7 with 2 lightsabers or a saberstaff(double bladed lightsaber). I wouldn't call myself a master yet but from the settings I normally use on Wire, I'm pretty sure I could hold my own against an average jedi knight. Sadly I've not been able to test out that theory yet since I've only ever been able to spar against the other younglings in my clan.

During my time spent training here I met Mace Windu a few times while I was looking through the archives, if he wasn't busy I would pick his brain about the lightsaber technique and if he could teach me. At the start all I got was a straight rejection but eventually after talking about what the ritual done to my body's rage perceptors and how I was still able to be calm even though the slightest thing should set me off, Windu agreed to let me learn the technique under his strict supervision. The training for it was brutal, it was mostly Windu training my technique through sparring where he wouldn't hold back as he gave the excuse 'Your opponents won't hold back just because you are young'.

During the spars he would do his best to rile me up to prepare me for letting an opponent's hate run through you, he said that once you starts to draw upon your enemy's anger and hatred there's a chance you could let I cloud your vison, therefore you had be extremely disciplined to use Vaapad. Eventually after much training the Jedi master deemed me worthy of being taught the ways of his lightsaber technique, and so he taught me how to draw upon an opponents emotions to strengthen yourself and redirect it back at your enemy.

Other stuff I've been looking into is force abilities, all members of the order have access to basic information in the jedi archives, and somewhere within that information is recordings of many force abilities that jedi use. Other than the basics of force manipulation like telekinesis, force augmentation and mind tricks which the instructors drill into you during class time. I've been trying to learn other abilities that would be useful in the field such as force repulse, force valor, force speed, force heal and electric judgement for the light sided abilities.

While also learning the more dark sided variants of telekinesis, force lightning, and some basic force destruction that definitely isn't combat ready. The last abilities I've been working on it tutaminis and teleportation, one of which is a far cry from being done.

The telekinesis abilities were easy enough to learn once you got the hang of it, the only difference was in the way you executed them. The physical augmentation was the easiest for me that shit just came naturally, after I read how to perform the technique it was like regaining something I always had. Going for the overkill in the physical abilities department I learned force Valor which kicks my already amazing physique into overdrive, the only drawback is that it uses a lot of energy so I can't use it in the long run.

The dark side abilities were more difficult to learn since I couldn't access the information in the archives and had to learn it myself. I've still not got force destruction down and probably wouldn't have learned force lightning if it weren't for Plo Koon teaching me electric judgement. That guy's such a sound cunt, just had to walk up and ask him to teach me and he was happy enough to do so. No bullshit trials or nothing, he just straight up taught me no strings attached.

Defos gonna try and save him when order 66 hits. While he was teaching me I'd ask him about tutaminis since the archives didn't make sense to me and I got pointers on that as well.

Space fold though I've no clue how I'm going to learn it, the archives have jack shit and the only person that knows how to use it is always off on missions so there's no progress there. And I only learned force heal so I don't end up looking like a pensioners wrinkly foreskin form using dark side abilities, not that I think it'll happen anyway if my theory's correct but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Along with my space wizard training, I've been working out like fuck to get this body extra ripped while testing out what this physiques truly capable of. I'm already 6'2 at 13 and will probably grow another few inches before I stop and have a body totally stacked with muscles from head to toe. From tests I've gathered that this body can heal any minor injuries perfectly but anything worse would still leave a scar, so sadly no deadpool antics like growing my arm back after getting it cut off and no I never cut myself, fuck that only masochist martial art wankers do that. All the injuries I've gained have been from spars and accidents from practicing force skills.

After finishing up fixing Wire I heard the doors to the room side open. Turning around I saw a Young woman with red skin, green eyes and deep blue hair tied back into a messy ponytail striding towards me with a smile on her red lips. On her was a form fitting pair of black leggings and a deep blue crop top underneath a large black padded jacket with its zip undone at the front.

This was Laila a female Zeltron that was brought to the jedi order not long after her birth on the planet of Zeltros. She's the youngling I've bonded with the most in the clan since she's pretty cheerful and can take a joke without running away crying after I take the piss. Her species are very sensitive to emotions and are able to sense the emotions of people around them making them a very empathetic species that has a strong dislike for sad emotions as it can some times overwhelm them, therefore they try and make everyone around them happy.

The first time we spoke to each other was because she felt my fluctuating emotions after I was just finishing from training my darkside abilities. This caused the little zeltron to attempt to fix my mental state by bringing me to have some food with her, and no I'm not that big an asshole that I'd tell a kid to fuck off just because she was trying to be helpful. Ever since that day we would usually have lunch together and after a while I even started to help with her training, letting her use Wires, if I was with her.

I also might've planted a few seeds in her mind about the jedi order being not as admirable as they said they were, and over the years the sentiment was solidified due to becoming inured to it over time. Not to the level where she would fall to the darkside but she was more of a Qui-Gon Jinn, as she wouldn't blindly follow the teaching of the order if she didn't agree with their take on something.

"Lycan you better hurry up and get your stuff ready, we're leaving in half an hour and the escort wants us there early for a head count" she nagged at me while crossing her arms.

"Aye right I get it, stop nagging me woman I was just fixing up Wires" I explained to her. "You could've avoided that if you didn't get so excited during your spars, you know relishing fights isn't the jedi way" she teased while raising an eyebrow. Rolling my eyes at her I tell Wires to head over to my room and wait for me coming back.

"As you wish master" standing up to leave, while walking past Laila he says audibly "Make sure to look after him Laila, who knows what he could get up during the gathering" getting a small chuckle to escape her lips.

"Fuck you Wires, honestly I don't know how you can be such an ass when I was the one who did your programming" I sighed while shaking my head. Getting a punch on the arm that probably hurt her more than me she said "You need to stop swearing all the time, one of these days you'll get in trouble with the council for it".

"Whatever doll if it comes to that I'll just roll with it, I mean what they gonna do exile me?" grabbing my large padded black jacked and slinging over my shoulder I begin to leave the room with Laila smiling next to me thinking about the upcoming gathering where we will finally get our lightsaber crystals.
