As the operation on Darth Crimson's leg and hand were completed Fox lowered the ships hatch and walked back onto the sandy grounds of Korriban. He had plans for this place, one Jedi joining the Sith was simply not enough. Darth Crimson would be a great Sith lord one day, but he would need to train. He looked out over the desolate planet covered with nothing more than sand and creatures mutated by the dark side. Truly the dark side was powerful, it had warped the mind of many Jedi and even created much more powerful monsters than their predecessors. This planet, Fox had heard rumors, it once had an academy much like the Jedi had. This would be an ideal way to recruit powerful Sith into their regime.
"Darth Crimson. Come with me. We shall find this academy and remake our ranks. The Sith shall once again rule the galaxy in stead of a corrupted politician." As he said these words he made no attempt to check if his apprentice was following or not. Fox just walked out into the blistering sun in search of the old academy, many creatures waited in the desert to tear them apart, but this seemed a necessary risk, or even a challenge, just one more thing to grow stronger.

Eaon had been in the ships Medical Bay again since he'd been dubbed "Darth Crimson" which Eaon found to be quiet a strange name for a Sith, especially one who hadn't done anything to deserve it. Perhaps it was a temporary name, or perhaps this Keita had something planned for him. Regardless Eaon was trapped in this situation now, and would have to act accordingly. When Eaon was released from the Medical bay he was given new Sith Robes and Armor to wear from that day on, and he would have to become accustomed to it, it was to be his attire until further notice. Eaon was also given his purple lightsaber back, however he was still feeling a bit slow, his new leg was hard to walk on and several times Eaon nearly lost balance. Finally though Eaon managed to get to the hanger of the Ship where Keita was waiting, he told Eaon to follow him and Eaon not really having a choice answered "Yes my Master." Eaon said before following though he had a hard time keeping up with his newest attachments. Luckily though the surgery the medical units aboard Keita's ship had fixed Eaon's broken hand without completely removing it, giving Eaon several ways of fighting. However Eaon knew everything was not over, the Jedi Archives talked about a Jedi Temple being around the colony of Dreshdae, and Eaon knew that wasn't far from their location. ((OOC: Eaon's new look))

The desert was hot and the heat waves could be seen shimmering just above the ground. They warped the simple grains of sand into oddly shaped blurs that seemed to be alive, they bounced and shimmied with every step taken. Now was not a good time to be wearing so much clothing. Why this planet? Sith had always worn an excessive amount of clothing.... so why a desert? These thoughts plagued Fox's mind.... till he realized just how pointless these thoughts were, upon realizing it was pointless to wonder he cleared his mind.
As he had been marching forwards with his apprentice slightly behind him a large stone building had come into view. As he cleared his mind and came back into reality he saw the building. Just growing closer and closer he could feel the power of the dark side presiding within its hollowed out walls. Much had happened here in the past. Much more would happen here now.
The building had its own pulse, its own life source brought upon by the force. The dark side often created life upon its own accord, it was also known to warp and mutate life into vile creatures. The stone doors of the academy shook and trembled. There was something inside the walls of this place. Not wanting to open it manually Fox used his Force Strike to throw open the doors.
The door burst inwards smashing something backwards and a loud yelping was heard. Less than a second later seven large creatures rushed out of the doors with claws ready and teeth bared. They rushed the two Sith ready to kill and disembowel. Fox had heard of them before, they were known as Tuk'ata and were placed here to guard the tombs of ancient Sith lords. However, in this particular situation, they would only be a hinderence to the Sith Empire. "Darth Crimson, kill these creatures that stand in our way."

Eaon didn't feel hot, but he was never really bothered by temperature, perhaps it was his Jedi training paying off, but looking forward towards his "Master" Eaon could see that he was looking rather uncomfortable. It would be funny that night when the temperatures dropped to below freezing. Eaon's thoughts didn't stray for long as he felt a pulsing darkness that made him shiver, and from the ground he could easily look up and see the Stone structure that was the Sith temple. Figured that they would be on a side entrance to the place, Eaon knew the normal door was in Dreshdae Outpost and the deep Canyon ahead of them was actually lined with the tombs of Sith Lords.
Eaon cleared his mind when he caught up to his master finally before watching him gather the force and using it to strike open the doors to the Temple. Eaon thought that it was rather unnecessary to do so, as a simple force push or pull would have worked just as well. Eaon closed his eyes and focused for just a second trying to see if he could sense anyone around him, however he felt something else Sith Hounds, semi-sentient beings that could put up quiet a fight. How many though, three? Four? Eaon had counted five by the time he heard a high pitched yelp from within the ruins. This "Master" was rather excessive and probably an idiot not thinking to scout the ruins ahead of blowing them open, no Jedi would have made that kind of a mistake.
Eaon was just content with sitting back and letting Lord Excessive Force handle things, but then, he ordered Eaon to move in and destroy the enemy. "Yes my master." Eaon said quietly as he pulled his Lightsaber from his belt and walked forward into the shadows of the temple. Eaon had only taken three foot steps into the darkness before his body felt cold, the building was stone and even though it soaked in the sun all day, it was freezing on the inside, this was probably why the Sith didn't mind it being on the Desert, it was an icebox on the inside.
From the darkness eyes began to glow bright red and approach Eaon, who only then ignited his blade, the violet light shining through the darkness. It really didn't help that much, all they could see was dead students' bodies strung about the place, as well as the new carcasses of dead animals. Eaon narrowed his eyes as the wounded hound charged Eaon first. Eaon slowed it by using Force Choke on it to catch it off guard. Eaon's Force Choke wasn't strong enough to do anything, but it was still practice, and when the creature got close enough with a horizontal slash, Eaon chopped out the creatures eyes killing it on the spot.
Then came a second creature, moving quickly towards Eaon, it jumped high in the air, attempting to pounce on Eaon. Eaon then used Force Pull to pull the creature hard to the ground, and slam it hard into the floor. Then using Force Choke again (rank up force choke ^.^) Eaon threw his lightsaber into the chest of the hound, before using the force to rip the saber out, doing so to in such a manner that it would slice from the chest down to the stomach of the hound, ensuring a painful death.

Darth Crimson worked well. Although he was still not used to the Sith way. His fighting was simply..... not destructive enough. Fox Combined his Force Speed with his Force Tractus Bardus and rushed in after Crimson. He was much faster than any of theses creatures now. Nothing more than a blur to them. Using nothing more than the glow of their eyes for light he stopped directly in front of one. Fox ignited his blade and made a sweeping motion downwards at its head. The beast died instantly as its head was split into 6 different pieces of burnt flesh.
The blades disappeared again. At the speed Fox was moving everyone else simply would have seen a flash. He turned and switched into his martial arts form of Teras Kasi, without moving from his spot he used his Force Strike to break one more tuk'ata's neck from across the room. Fox was doing much better than he had more recently. One more, then leave the last two to Crimson..... Fox leaped into the air as one of the Ferrel creatures attempted to take a bite out of him. He flipped backwards through the air igniting his blades. As he came down he severed the spine of the Tuk'ata. It fell to the ground but did not die. Its screams echoed through the tomb of ex-students. Fox approached its head and opened his palm at the beast using his Force Destruction he shot the energy through its head killing it leaving a burnt hole between its eyes.

Eaon watched as three more were killed quickly by Keita, he really wasn't an elegant fighter. It was not hard to see why the Sith had a tendency to lose every war they fought in, they didn't have the grace or discipline that the Jedi had, they left themselves open to receive many wounds and get killed much more than they needed to. While Keita's technique of slowing time and speeding himself up was effective against creatures who didn't have the force or weren't incredibly capable of thought, against other Force Users it was easy to overcome, especially if you knew Ataru.
Two more rushed Eaon and he looked towards one, using Force Choke then preparing to make a run on it to kill it. However as Eaon approached the second one make a leap and Eaon and he was forced to let the first one from his grip and sight in order to defend himself. Eaon's right arm, his mechanical arm got bit, luckily it wasn't his real arm or Eaon would be in trouble. Eaon then used Force Lightning on the eyes of the creature, blinding it and forcing it back. Eaon didn't stop there though, he used Force Choke and began to swing his lightsaber at the beast removing one of it's paws before Eaon heard the other one stand up and again Eaon was forced to change targets.
Looking back again at the original Hound Eaon used Force Choke again on the beast before approaching him and and driving his Lightsaber through the skull and brain of the beast killing it. Now it was time to finish off the other creature, that was charging on a limp towards Eaon. Using Force Choke again Eaon prepared to kill the creature, standing back to guard it, but accidentally tripping over a dead carcus. Eaon hit the ground hard and when he tried to get up, the hound jumped on Eaon and tried to maul him.
In one final act of relative annoyance, Eaon used Force Choke Again in a combination of him twisting at the head of the beast, breaking it's neck killing it on the spot before standing up. Once Eaon was up he used Force Choke once more just to be on the safe side.

Skath looks out on the desert with its twisted creatures thinking how well he would have fared on this planet if his father had left him here instead. Finding such depressing thoughts point less on a man if he ever found he would leave him in the same spot he had left Skath. That thought made him smile as he puts on his mask. He lifts his massive rifle it almost being as tall as him. He turns to walk to his small ship but something tugs at his mind as he does this. He looks back at the direction as a ship lands bearing the empire emblem. He crouches and lifts his rifle looking though the scope to see what was happening. As the two sith walk off he is compelled to follow.
As they are attacked by the beasts he abandons his long distance pirtch and works his way up to them without making a sound useing the years he had to hide from the predators to help guide his movements. He watches the one sith move with impossible movement instantly understanding him as a master while the other seemed to struggle thinking him a knight much like him. He goes back around the corner hoping they did not see him not wanting to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

As Crimson killed the last of the Tuk'ata Fox finally had time to look at round at his surroundings. This place had been a pretty efficient slaughter house to the old students here. Their bodies littered the floor and the smell of their rotting flesh filled the air. Nothing new though, he had smelled and seen this all before when he was still a slave. This would all have to be cleared out and the bodies dealt with. Fox pulled out his receiver and contacted his crew ordering them to come clear out the bodies.
"Darth Crimson. Well done. You handled those quite well." Fox turned and wandered down the nearest hallway. There were more bodies. Most none to fresh. He turned into a room. There was only one body in here. It was leaning against a blue transmitting device. "Crimson. Do you know how to program these? We could use this to send out a signal to all who wish to train as a Sith."

Skath follows behind just as quite as the death that surrounded the group he stalked. He noticed quite a few markings on the walls and floors used my animals to mark there territory. But most of these claw marks and stains ware from lesser beasts only a few stood out to him as major predator marks. He wants to leave these two to there own devices but something told him to stay and follow hidden if possible but he was willing to show himself if he had too. Skath takes cover behind a pillar far enough away not to be seen but close enough so he could hear there conversations.

"No my Master, I'm not sure how to work those, it is older than I am." Eaon lied, he knew perfectly well how the thing worked, he just wasn't too eager to get the Sith Academy back up on its feet, it could be trouble, especially since the Sith Inquisition would be in need of a new home. Eaon continued deeper through the dark depths of the passage that Keita had opened up.
Using Force Light Eaon scouted up ahead a fairly good distance before coming into a rather large area that intercepted the hall he was in. Judging by the general size of the hall way it was probably the Great hall of the building. The black walls had many etchings in what Eoan assumed was Sith Speak and the black almost coal like walls glistened in the light of the force.
Eaon shivered, he was becoming colder as he reached the closer to the heart of the building, this was truly a place of Great Evil, and despite Keita being a Sith, Eaon didn't want to go on any further without him. Turning around and making his way back towards Keita he saw something, or at least Eaon though he saw what could have been someone else, but the light from outside was too bright to be sure and this place was making it hard to sense things, Eaon wasn't used to it yet.
"My Master, the Great Hall is up ahead of us." Eaon spoke as he made his way back over the shattered corpses of the Sith Hounds. They had a name in Sith Speak, but Eaon had long forgotten it, he never managed to learn the evil tongue of it, never saw a use for a Jedi to know it. Now Eaon was regretting his neglectful days at the Academy, perhaps he should have been spending a little more time training on his own instead of wasting time.

Fox watched as his apprentice walked into thew shadows. "A. Rescrammble the signal to inform all Sith to assemble on Korriban at the Sith Academy." He cut the transmission to his trooper and Crimson reappeared. He informed him of the great hall, but seemed to hesitate and look past Fox as he returned as if he saw a glimpse of something. "You sense it too?"
(OOC: Sorry it was so short Eaon. It was about 10 times longer before my computer crashed...... i really didn't want to retype that much....)

((That sucks man and trust me I know exactly how that feels)) Skath climbs the small wall and flips upside down using his feet to hold him in place he shoulders his rifle and uses the heat vision to watch the pair. Skath watches from the end of a very long hall way completely invisible to normal site. Skath looks out of his scope for a moment then back in adjusting the distance to see a greater predator of the planet. Skath methodically turns the safety off and fires his rifle the fire only visible in darkness engulfs the hallway 10 feet in front of him but the fire is there for only a nanosecond. The massive shell rips into the beast riping its arm and head clean off sending it to the ground. The round missed Crimson by mere inches making a loud whine and hits his chest with a small wave of air. After the shot Skath drops and runs using Force speed to escape being found. Skath preferred to be hidden and alone not trusting many.

"Yes I do sense it." Eaon said as he looked back outside the doors of the temple, just in time to see a piece of Sith Hound get taken off by a powerful Rifle shot. Eaon got blown back to the side, but putting his right leg back Eaon steadied himself. Eaon knew he could feel something or someone back there, but who? All Eaon knew was that they had a gun and they used the force at some point.
That was all Eaon really needed, he knew they were using the force, he'd just go to where he sensed it and used Force Speed to catch up to where the shot was fired from. Eaon then pulled his lightsaber from his belt and ignited the purple blade and jumped high through the air towards his foe getting above him.
"I see you worm!" Eaon shouted before extending his hand and using Force Lightning to shower the enemy, forcing them to move and forfeit their ability to shoot him in the air, or become a victim of a rather shocking experience.

Skath runs full out still not wanting to be found until he was sure of there intent. Skath smirks as he notes the man charging after him was very loud compared to Skaths measured and soft steps. As Crimson rounds the corner Skath kicks off the wall to his side and flys to the center of the hall way he hits the ground on his right shoulder facing Crimson. In his slide he fires his rifle filling the hallway with the same massive instant fireball. The round rips through crimsons hood leaving a large hole half a inch away from his head. "Try and kill me again and the next one I wont aim near you I WILL hit you" Skath says venom dripping from his words along with the unfailing promise in his words.

This man seemed ready to kill. Not like a Jedi. That's when it dawned on him. This man was brutal like a Sith and from what Fox could tell was mildly adept in the use of the force he may be able to enroll in this future Sith academy. The students of the old academy had to receive a medallion in order to do this though.... and to receive the medal they would have to kill a current student and take it from them. At the very least they would have to be able to prove their skills. Perfect time to test this man.
Moving into his form of Teras Kasi Fox combining his Force Tractus Bardus and Force Strike to launched an invisible attack at the man. That would easily break some bones if it made contact, and just to make matters harder for him Fox instantly followed with his Friction Fire. That would be a very difficult feat to simply survive, not to mention dodge. This was a test. The man did not know it, but he was being tested.
