"I...uh...huh?!" Xander sputtered as he choked on his drink when Sihara mentioned him being force sensitive. "Are...are you sure?" He asked still very unconvinced yet already knowing that she was most likely telling the truth. "The only blood that i've ever had drawn was from the several times the girls clawed my back a little too hard during...uh......yeah..." Xander rambled, more to himself than anything.
"So, are you going to train me or something?" Xander smiled, swimming back over to her. "I'll believe you only if you give me a kiss, a real one." He said in what was supposed to be a stiff and serious tone, only to break the facade with a laugh as he absentmindedly started stroking Sihara's lekku.
Xander didn't even wait for her to answer him about the kiss thing, like always, and gave her a quick kiss on the lips. The image of himself in jedi robes then appeared in his mind and he burst out laughing " I really can't think of myself as a jedi or something like that, just...no." He was still laughing at the very thought as he continued to rub Sihara's sensitive lekku.

Sihara nodded to his question. Yes, she was almost certain of it.
Yes, I'm nearly certain. The blood I need is only a prick to the finger, you'll be fine.
She responded. His next question, however, made her eyes darken, her thoughts hidden to him and her face impassive. Xander's comment, however, made her roll her eyes. When he started stroking her lekku, Sihara shied away from his touch. That was a bit...much...for her senses. Sihara NEVER let anyone touch her precious lekku, much less stroke them like that! Not to mention it made her feel...well it didn't matter what she felt, she didn't like the sensation one bit. Distracted by the happenings, she barely noticed when he kissed her. His laughter, however, swiftly returned her to her senses. Narrowing her eyes dangerously she removed his hand from her lekku.
I don't know. I'm not sure I could train you. No offense, but you're old. All learners start out at 13 at the oldest. I'm not sure how well you would take to the lessons and the training needed to wield the full powers you might be capable of.

(sorry if it sucks...i'm gettin kinda sleepy)
Xander laughed even more as Sihara gave him a look and stopped him from petting her. "Touchy touchy." He laughed as he swam back across so he was facing her "that shouldn't matter should it? Why would it be such a problem? I'm a quick learner and with you teaching me it'll go even faster." the cheerful smile on his face continued to grow as he came in closer to her. "Come on babe, give me a chance, if you're worried 'bout what the council might think, don't tell them 'bout me." Xander really didn't know the rules of the jedi council too well so this request seemed like the easiest thing in the galaxy.
"What do you need my blood for?" Xander never really thought about what was so important about a blood sample "gonna check and see if i'm healthy or somethin?" He tried to think of anything else he wanted to ask and after a few moments of thinking, he thought of something "So will i be able to use one of them fancy lightsabers you jedi are so darn fond of?"

It matters greatly. If you cannot concentrate on your training with dedication there is a high possibility that you will end up harming yourself or others. Children, though ever curious, are easily taught because of that curiosity. They dedicate themselves wholeheartedly, and without reservation....adults cannot so readily do that. That is my particular worry for you. I do not want to start training someone I cannot finish training.
As for the Council...it's not that easy. They feel nearly everything that goes on in the force, and I'm certain they would notice my sneaking off with you to train. Not only that, but you would not be able to come with me on all of my missions, which is another vital step in training to be a jedi.
I would need a sample of your blood to test your midichlorian count. If it's high enough, you do have the ability to feel and use the force. The higher the count, the stronger you will be in the force and your ability to wield it effectively.
She paused a moment, thinking of his last question.
I don't know if I will allow it or not yet. The first style of saber combat it taught even before a child is taken on as a padawan...you would be starting far behind any other padawan normally would.
Her voice trailed off as she studied him appraisingly. Sighing, she decided that she MUST be insane.
If you understand all of this, and can make this commitment I can train you...but there will be conditions. Also, I must warn you that the training will NOT be easy...so do not make this decision lightly. This is a large commitment. Think hard before you give me an answer.
Do you have any other questions, or do you understand what I've told you?
She asked, those golden green orbs flinty and hard as diamonds as she gazed at him.

It took a moment for Xander to take everything Sihara was saying. After a few moments of contemplating his answer, Xander locked his electric blue eyes with Sihara's goldish green ones "What happens if i get caught with you training me? More importantly, what will happen to you?" Xander would feel absolutely terrible if Sihara got punished for helping him out, he wouldn't be able to live with himself.
After a very long pause, Xander ran several scenarios through his head and still wasn't sure about what to do "I....I accept your offer." Xander had a concerned look on his face, his worry for the consequences weighing down on his thoughts. "I will train hard and make you proud." He gave her a big smile as he pushed the bad thoughts to the back of his head.
Sihara's previous comment about going on missions together put another smile on Xander's face "So what you're telling me is that i get to travel the galaxy with a babe like you? My answer has become set in stone now." He laughed a bit, standing up and getting out of the hot tub. " You should get some sleep sweetie, you're gonna need it.....unless you wanna get down and dirty first." The thought of that flashed and stayed in Xander's mind, what a glorious night this would turn out to be if that happened....oh well, maybe next time, she'd never do that.
"I'm making breakfast in the morning, so if you're still here when i wake up, which is surprisingly early, then we can eat together before you take off...or we take off.....or whatever." Scratching his head in thought once again, Xander mearly shrugged and walked towards the doorway. "When you get out, just press this here button and everything will take care of itself." A red tinted finger pointed to a black button on the wall a short ways away. "One more thing, sleep well love." He then blew her a kiss before going to his room and turning in for the night.

Sihara simply shook her head slightly at his first question.
Don't worry about the Council. I make my decisions based on my own reasoning and judgment. Whether the Council accepts it or not is not my largest concern. Either way, they cannot penalize you for my actions.
She replied and stood up with him.
No, we should both head to bed, your right.
Ignoring the rest of his statements, Sihara pressed the button he had shown her and went to change back into her robes. Pulling the familiar dark brown cloth around her body, she crept into the room she had been assigned and lay down across the floor. It was rather fluffy even for being a flood...a bit more fluffy than even her bed at the temple. Sighing, she swiftly fell asleep. It wasn't long until her body woke her again, the sun not having graced the sky yet. It had to have been only 4:30 in the morning, and so she stepped out into the entertainment room and knelt down, seeing that Xander wasn't awake yet.
She had managed to settle herself down beside one of the few plants in the apartment, and so she knelt there, her eyes closed, with one hand on the soil of the potted plant. It helped her feel more comfortable, more connected to the force, feeling the life in the plant beneath the dirt there where it's roots were. When Xander woke, he would be finding her this way, her mind focused on everything and nothing at once.

Xander woke with a start, he had just had a dream of himself and Sihara getting married, this instantly piqued his interest because this dream was more vivid then usual, could it be a vision or something? Maybe, it was too soon to tell. He slowly crawled out of bed put some pants on and walked out of his room and into the entertainment room to find what looked to be a sleeping or meditating Sihara.
Xander just smiled a warm smile as he tip toed behind her and gave her a swift kiss on the cheek, it didn't really matter if she woke up or not. "Morning sunshine." Xander then started stroking her lekku for a second before getting up and heading for the kitchen.
It was currently 5:45 and Xander had decided to prepare some breakfast, one consisting of pancakes, thick cut bacon and eggs. It took awhile but Xander finally set the table up and it looked very impressive. Without really thinking about it, Xander dished up two plates and headed back for the entertainment room and opened the hot tub up. It took only a few seconds for the Zeltron man to become completely nude and entered the bubbling water. He then set the plates down beside the jacuzzi and motioned for Sihara to come join him.
"Come on babe, i don't bite....hard." Tired laughter came from his mouth as he grabbed a fork and dug in to his pancakes. "So when should we leave?" Xander managed to say during a long yawn after swallowing his food.

Sihara didn't move as he kissed her cheek, her mind not allowing her to be bothered. She was far to removed from her body to care much about that kind of distraction...she was, instead, more concerned about a powerful emotion ripple through the force. What in the world could that have been? It felt...angry, sad, pained...desperate. Her heart began to race slightly as she searched through the force to find the source of this horrible scream. It was certainly on the planet...somewhere...but where was it, and why? Why would a dark jedi choose to use something that powerful on the doorstep of the Order? It hadn't felt like a challenge but....no, she was certain that it wasn't a challenge. There was something else in that scream...something buried deep...and the presence...it was familiar.
Troubled, Sihara only hissed slightly as Xander stroked her lekku but payed no more attention to him as he left. The smell of food tempted her to leave her meditation, but she ignored it and kept reaching, searching. Where...where was it? What was the cause? What was happening today that might make a dark jedi feel.....wait....dark jedi....there had been a trial. The trial of a traitor to the republic yesterday, ending with her being found guilty, stripped of her rank, and sentenced to death...this morning. That major had been one to save a dark jedi, had she not? The one that she had been there to over see the transfer of...that was why! He had come for her!
Even more troubled, the togruta woman's eyebrows knit together with her eyes closed as she tried to probe toward the location of the jail to see what was going on. The sound of water, the smell of food, and Xander's voice, however, broke her concentration. Heaving a sigh, she opened her eyes and turned the golden orbs toward the zeltron man. Eyeing the food slightly, she nodded, stood, and walked over. Kneeling beside the jacuzzi, she picked up the plate and started eating silently, her mind troubled still by the sound of the scream she had heard through the force. Who was it...she could tell she knew the voice, but....who?

(sorry for the short post, i really am, i have a bit of writer's block right now >.<)
Xander couldn't help but notice the troubled look on Sihara's face. "Hey babe, what's the matter?" He asked politely, still not getting to her, he then snapped his fingers loudly to try and get her attention. "Got something on your mind sweetheart?" He asked still mildly polite, making sure this time that she heard him. "Did you sense something or something? Is that why you're acting like such a space case right now?"
Minutes went past as Xander waited for a response from his jedi companion. "You know that if something needs to be done, we should do it, 'cuz right now, it's like talking to a wall." He said with a slightly concerned yet sarcastic tone. "If you've got something that needs solving, let me in, i'll try to help." Xander then gave a well meaning smile as he finished his food and tipped back his head and relaxed.

(it's okay, i'm feeling the same way with Sihara all around. >_< ))
I heard you Xander. If you would keep quiet for a bit longer, perhaps I could answer your questions more easily. Lesson number one: patience.
She snipped, as she pulled the plate of food over and munched thoughtfully on the bacon. Only after downing it completely did she turn to the eggs; however, she left the pancakes alone. She had enough of starch eating already seeing as that was the easiest and cheapest food to come by...hence the majority of her diet when not at the temple.
I did hear something. I heard a scream....an echo of despair, anger, frustration, and determination. I believe it came from the direction of the prison....if I'm correct, it was related to that trial the HNN has been covering...the one of the Traitor...the Borgonia woman.
She sighed and shook her head, setting aside her plate. Dipping one hand into the warm water, she vaguely realized that her hands were cold.

"Well then, i'll go get dressed and ready to go then! Unless you wanna get down and dirty first, we can do that first." He said with a laugh as he stood up in the hot tub, his manhood in full view for anyone to see. "I wanna go investigate babe, let's head out after awhile." He then got out and stroked one of her lekku again as he went back to his room and got some new clothes on.
A few minutes later, Xander came back out in all black silk clothes. "Wanna enjoy a bit more relaxation or should we get on outta here?" Xander really was trying to be patient but that particular trait wasn't one of Xander's strong points. Xander grabbed his and her plates and he walked into the kitchen, washing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen.
Xander then picked her up and tossed her onto the massage table and took her brown jedi robe off and started working her over, making sure to be gentle on her scar " You need to relax and lighten up a bit babe." He continued to massage her back and gave her an almost loving smile.

As he stood up, Sihara turned her face away swiftly. OhbytheForce! She thought, slightly disgusted at his apparent lack of decency for how SHE might feel. As he stroked one of her lekku, the trogruta swatted his hand away testily, but said nothing. Upon his return, she had already stood and was ready to leave, having made her own way into the kitchen and set her plate in the sink. He then picked up his own dish and headed in that direction as well. After a few minutes of running water, Xander returned.
Picking her up, the startled togruta could bring herself to do nothing, it wasn't until he had removed her outer robe and started to work at her muscles through the tan tunic that she moved. Using the force to aid her, she swiftly slipped away from him, twisting as she did so, and landed a hard hit to the underside of his chin with the palm of her hand as it came straight up at him. Leaping back several paces in one motion, Sihara stood there shaking in anger for a moment before calming herself and straightening up once more.
DO NOT do anything of that sort again. In fact, don't TOUCH me again unless you have my express permission. Do I make myself clear?
She stated, allowing herself to radiate her extreme displeasure. It rolled off of her in waves, and honestly, Sihara didn't care. If this was the only way to get through to him...to use emotions against him to set him straight....then so be it.

Xander was quite taken aback by this unexpected (to him at any rate <.<) outburst from his jedi guest. By the mere tone of her voice, Xander could tell that he had overstepped his boundaries, damnit. With closed eyes and a small bow, the zeltron man wasn't used to such a harsh tone and in reality, it was probably the best thing for him. "I am truely sorry master jedi, it will not happen again, please accept my deepest apologies, for i have i have offended you on mulitple levels." Xander kept his eyes closed, he did not want to look into her beautiful golden green orbs for they could pierce right into his soul, utterly destroying his happy go lucky facade.
The extent of Sihara's displeasure was enough to drain the happiness out of the zeltron man, leaving nothing but a swirling mass of depression and sadness in it's wake, of course, when Xander reopened his eyes, he mearly put on a smile to make it seem as though the negative emotions had already passed. "Shall we go then my dear?" He asked in an almost unnerving calm and somewhat monotone voice "I'd very much like to get started on my training."
The weak smile stayed on his face until he walked out of the entertainment room and down the hall, the smile on his face turning upside down as he shoved his hands into his pockets and walked into his room, coming back out several long minutes later with a small bag full of spare clothes on his back, his pistol on his side, and his rifle slung over his shoulder. He then slowly walked back into the room, the thought of travelling with Sihara making him slightly more cheerful.
