Chapter 40 –Twin lightsabers

Layan built a special furnace after coming back from Mustafar, he wanted it to create new lightsabers for himself. He had the designs in head ever since his past life but never had the necessary resources.

He wanted to create his dreams lightsabers and for them to be unique, for it he wanted to create his own unique synthetical crystals. He already retrieved his Velmorite crystals on Velmore, he wanted to use them to create new lightsabers as a memento of his past life, it was with his master that he found them. It was a memory dear to his heart.

He could maybe create 2 more lightsabers as backup weapons or use them in telekinesis fight as support. He wasn't strong enough in the force before to recreate Traya skill in the past, but now he shouldn't have any problems and should be able to make it.

Creating synthetic lightsaber crystals demand to be skillful enough in the mastery of the force as several days of meditation and focus was needed to create them.

Synthetical crystals were easier to tune and augment, they even have the possibility of shattering another lightsaber blade, even if it happened extremely rarely in history.

After putting all the pieces necessary to build his lightsabers on a table at the other end of the room, he put his focus on the furnace made to create the Synth-Crystals.

He put all the necessary elements in the furnace which was made to artificially replicate the geological conditions necessary to create a lightsaber crystal.

During four days, he stays closed-up in this room focused on manipulating the forming synthetical crystals inside the furnace to make it perfect for himself. The heat of the furnace was tremendous and hard to keep his focus of the force with this extreme heat and the accumulating lack of sleep.

He had to manipulate carefully the crystals during its formation to obtain the colors desired.

After four days of work, he put off the furnace and took out two small blue crystal out of the furnace. They weren't identical, one had an almost black center with a dark blue edge, while the other had a deep blue core and white edges.

"Step one, over. Now, I'll take a nap."

After days without sleep and maintaining a high degree of focus, he was exhausted and wanted to rest. He still had to cut and shave the crystal to perfectly fit in the future lightsabers. A complicated step that require focus, after this would come tuning the crystals with the force and only then would come the assembly of the lightsabers.

He exited the room and saw Lyn and HK-47 fighting each other in a sparring duel. This time without insulting each other's at the top of their lungs.

"Statement: You're a clever meatbag, you became less predictable, but you're still no match against me."

Lyn was using several skills and often changing her fighting forms while assaulting the droid. During a frontal assault with her blade, she put her focus on a stone behind the droid and used ballistakinesis to throw it at the droid head. But HK-47 already predicted her attack.

"Statement: Your eyes sold you, you were staring at it. Idiot."

"I really wish to cleave you in half. Enjoy the time when you're still stronger than me. It will soon change and I'll cut apart your rusty ass."

"Couldn't last long. Why do I even raise my hopes?"

Layan walked down the ramp of the Phoenix and asked aloud making them turning toward him with an interrogative expression.

He ignored their stares and sat down with a water bottle and watch them as they resumed their sparring session

"Master, have you finished building your new lightsabers?"

While fighting against the red droid, Lyn was talking to him.

"Focus on the fight, and no. I just completed my crystals, I have a few more things to do before assembling the lightsabers."

After drinking and eating a bit, he headed toward his cabin for a few hours nap. After this, he resumed his work with the crystals.

Cutting and shaving the crystals was difficult, the slightest mistake could destroy the crystals. He would then need to start again. After several hours of focus, the crystals were perfectly cut and shined beautifully.

The next step was to tune the crystals with the force, it took a few hours, but after this done the two crystals were now brighter and the force could be felt in them. He already had attuned the Velmorite crystals while training Lyn before.

He now had 4 lightsabers crystals and was determined to build his two set of twin lightsabers.

All the necessary elements were disposed on the table of the atelier of the Phoenix. Most of them coming from the disassembled lightsaber scavenged on Mustafar. Several exemplary of high-energy reflector cup, power cells, focusing lens and everything else, nothing was missing.

First was the Velmorite crystals. One of the crystals rose in the air with all the machinery which will constitute the future lightsaber. The crystal was encased into the main body of lightsaber which was then covered by a red and black metallic tube above it came a plating of golden color covering the external layer of the hilt. The golden blade emitter with two alveola opening and the pommel in a pointy shape red in color fixed themselves at each end of the hilt.

The overall look was stunning and classy. The hilt was slightly curved, the golden plating was giving a sharp vibe and the metal itself was shiny and smooth as a mirror.

===============================

A/N: Look at this and drool. The creator is really a freak, awesome.

===============================

The curved hilt gives to the wielder more power when delivering overhand strikes and permit a better flexibility. To that must be added that each angles change gave a better diversity of blows and permit to surprise the opponent.

The differences with a straight hilt are few. The placement of crystal inside is slightly different and the hilt itself need to be held more in the palm, less with the fingertips like with a classical hilt.

"Really nice. Been a long time since I wanted to create it. Time for the second one."

After a short time, Layan assembled a second lightsaber, identical to the first one. With the two lightsabers in hands, he lit them on. Two beautiful yellow blades were coming out from the two golden hilts. With Layan golden skin and dark attire, it was a beautiful sight.

The blades were humming as he was testing the balance of the newly created. The balance was perfect and the blade was humming perfectly, everything was in place and functioned perfectly. The blade had no problems to cut everything in halves.

After some time playing around with his new lightsabers, he hanged them at his belt before getting back to the workbench and focusing on the two newly created synthetic lightsaber crystals.

Once again, he focused with the force and assembled two straight hilt lightsabers. The two lightsabers were white and black in color. The primary color was white, covering the entire hilt, the only black elements being the handgrip, the black emitter and the lightsaber chamber left uncovered. In it could be seen the blue crystals of different shades.

the blade colors are from SWTOR----Black blue, and Blue cyan indigo

==========

After igniting the two lightsabers, the blades appeared, a black blue blade and a blue cyan indigo colored blade. These two colors will be unique as they were artificially created by him and are impossible to be found naturally.

After a small round of testing, Layan hanged them at his belt and exited his workshop inside the main hold of the ship, but it was night outside and everyone was sleeping.

He was now finally comfortable with lightsabers to use his favorite style and his new lightsabers were far more fitting to his hands. He headed to his cabin and fell asleep on his bed.

Layan woke up next morning with the sounds of his door being opened by Lyn as it was more than past time to depart for Mandalore's moon, Concordia. The place where was exiled those refusing to part with the warrior ways of their ancestors.

"Master, time to get up. I really want to leave Ossus."

"This trip is not for sight-seeing or holidays. We are conducting a mission, so be serious."

"I know. I know."

He was still a bit groggy but took a small breakfast before taking his seat in the cockpit. He fiddled with the buttons to prepare the hyperspace jump and took of the ground. Lyn and HK-47 were sitting in the seats in the cockpit.

Lyn was excited as it was the first time leaving Ossus in six months. She was busied with her training during the last six months, nonetheless she wanted to leave for a change of scenery.

Once out of Ossus orbit, Layan put down the lever and the Phoenix started his travel inside hyperspace. The white streak of light filled the cockpit.
