The Cursed Holocron

Xim made his way back into the third room and woke the sleeping woman with a gentle kiss, "Morning beautiful, you need to get dressed and showered .After that meet me in the centre of the ship, I have some training techniques I want you to learn and use while I'm in secluded meditation, thanks to someone I have to get a hold of passion again" The woman blushed at Xim's comments and said" I know we did this in the wrong order but my name is Lilith, I would like you take me as your apprentice, Master" Xim just smiled at her and said" You are already one of the Grey, if you weren't you wouldn't be on this ship without any clothes. When we are in public you can call me Master or Patience however when we are alone you can just call me Xim. I will leave now so you can get ready too meet your fellow apprentice and his partner. " He moved towards her and gave a quick but firm kiss before going back to his original position, taking one more glance at her n.a.k.e.d body before leaving the room.

On his way back towards the centre of the ship he decided to knock on Tasha's door and check in with her. He heard panicked movement from inside and someone falling over, within five minutes the door was opened and a blushing Tasha opened the door. Xim smiled at her and said"Nalen will be entering secluded meditation once, he has been introduced to his fellow apprentice, if you have anything to tell him now would be the time. When we arrive on Tython, he will be too occupied for you to have a chance to speak for a long period of time. I also apologise for the noise my apprentice and I caused last night, it must have been hard to sleep. When you have the time on Tython I would also like to discuss my plans for the settlement with you and Nalen." Tasha nodded her head, slightly blushing at what Xim had said, he moved past her and continued on his way before waiting in the central chamber for Lilith and Nalen to arrive.

He entered a state similar to meditation and he attempted to unscramble some of the knowledge that the robe of Patience had given to him within the vault, he focused hard on one paragraph and to his surprise the paragraph became clear for him to read. It stated 'Force clone, the user creates a clone of itself, the clone has weaker versions of the users skills and abilities. It is able to wield any weapon the user is able to use. Use of this ability reduces the users ability to use the force while the clone is active.' Xim was excited at the potential of this ability, it would allow him to fight groups of enemies effectively alone, it could also be used to heal injured people at twice the normal rate. If he could master the technique it may allow him to appear in two places at once confusing his enemies.

Happy with his discovery, Xim opened his eyes to see Nalen, Lilith and Tasha staring at him, each with different emotions in their eyes. Lilith one of love and l.u.s.t, Nalen with respect and reverence, Tasha with confusion and fear. Xim confused with their gazes looked behind him., only to notice a purple outline of himself kneeling behind him, shocked by the sight Xim took three steps back and said" This is weird I only just figured out that this was possible, how did I already create a force clone of myself? Clone stand up and take this lightsaber," Xim threw the lightsaber he crafted at Tython into the hands of the clone, the clone caught the weapon and entered a duelling stance from the balanced form. Xim smiled at this and said" Now me and my clone are going to demonstrate my balanced form for the three of you, this remains a secret, understood?" They all nodded their heads, Xim and his clone bowed to one another, then lunged at each other at fast speeds, the strikes were to quick for Tasha and Lilith to follow with their eyes however Nalen who was also studying this form saw the rapid movement of the strikes and the perfect counter strikes from both parties.

Xim noticed that his clone was almost his equal with a lightsaber however he wanted to know if it was as intelligent as him so as his latest strike came down, he turned off his lightsaber but continued his swing but to his surprise when he turned it back on the clone was a safe distance away. Xim just smiled before reengaging him at a much faster pace than before, this forced the clone onto the defensive however it was still able to repel Xim consistently until Xim feigned one of his swings changing direction at the last second and struck the clone in the c.h.e.s.t, winning the duel.

He smiled at the thought that the clone was able to stand up to him to this extent, he looked at the three observers and said "Lilth and Nalen this is the level I expect you to be at sooner rather than later. Nalen say goodbye to Tasha and enter secluded meditation until we arrive at Tython, Lilith take this holocron and begin your studies in the light side of the force, I expect you to be able to use the light side of the force to heal wounds and push objects away form you by the time we get to Tython. If you do I promise to give you a reward worth your effort." As she went to talk to Xim he sealed her lips and lightly tapped her b.u.t.t in the direction of her room. She glared at him before running up to him and giving him a kiss on the cheek before retreating to her room. Xim smiled at the scene before turning to Tasha and Nalen and saying" You guys can talk briefly before Nalen goes into seclusion, if either of you needs me I will be meditating in the c.o.c.kpit of the ship". They nodded at him before Xim picked up his other lightsaber form the floor and entered the c.o.c.kpit.

He sat on the floor and began to meditate in all the different sides of the force, he felt his connection to the force begin to expand and he felt as if his control over the dark side of the force had grown massively since activating his passion again. He felt like finding l.u.s.t was a overall good thing for him. His natural increase in the dark side of the force, made Xim skip it in his meditation program, he decided to focus heavily on the grey side of the force and the light side of the force which he was afraid was beginning to fall behind compared to the other two. He began to wonder how he could use the light side of the force, he asked the hologram if he could use the light side of the force to camouflage himself. The hologram responded "The best ability, force cloak, also known as force camouflage, was a rarely seen force talent involving the manipulation of light and sound waves to render a practitioner virtually invisible to the n.a.k.e.d eye." Xim nodded his head and began to experiment with his control of the light side in attempt learn this new ability. He spent the remaining days before they arrived in Tython, trying to hide his presence, he also prepared for his return to Tython and a return to the Jedi temple.
