Paymon's lightsaber met his hand quickly and efficiently the crimson blade coming to life with a quick snap-hiss, and just as she attacked he moved the blade to his right side catching her blade and bashing it away,"My stupidity? You are the one who is foolish."Paymon spoke as he planted his feet into the ground and slid back with the force push, another power he found that weak pathetic force-users used. He knew Morrigna was more than this..what was she trying to hide from him,he could tell she was trying to keep something away from him, and he had every intention on finding out what. Paymon leapt at her with his blade pointed outward then he raised his arm and attempted to make a slash down from her left shoulder to her right hip,then as he spins to the left to get closer to her,he drops to the ground and makes a much quicker circular motion with a kick to her ankles attempting to knock her feet out from under her.

*Morri raised an eyebrow at Paymon.*
Is that all you know how to say? Fool foolish blah blah blah... I grow tired of hearing the same bullshit from you every day...
*She says, her blade, already at her left side, since she's left handed, and pivots slightly to face where her left shoulder once would have been, catching his blade and following through on the motion of it. She could feel the heat of the blades ever so near to her skin, close enough form small beads of sweat to form against the skin. As she sees him drop, she knew that a kick of some sort was coming her way, so she moved to step back, but still felt his foot catch her right ankle, causing her to stumble forward... yep... that would be a sprain she'd feel in the morning...
As she regained her footing, Morri couldn't help but wonder what was with her today... she was simply not on top of her game... and she didn't like it... She knew her emotions were running high, both from her meeting with the Kenobi and finding herself able to relate to the feelings of the boy... she had to find a way to ignore it and protect both of them... and to do so without giving Paymon any indication as to why... at least her immense distaste for him wasn't something new... it was something that had always been a part of their so called friendship... or whatever it was... so she did have that going for her...
Though her mind was filled with this flood of thoughts, Morri didn't miss a beat in her cat and mouse came with the Sith Lord... she quickly took advantage of his low position to aim a kick square at his oversized nose. Once her foot had securely returned to the ground, she moved the butt end of her saber hilt towards Paymon's right rib cage, following the motion through as a right to left saber slash, diagonally across his torso.*

Paymon finished the flow of his kick and then with his quick reflexes moved his head back and held up his left arm to block her kick then as he was making his way to his feet he held his blade up to his right side,catching her blade with his own, while their blades clashed Paymon moved the left side of his body,almost standing next to her then he removed his left hand from his saber hilt going back to a one handed hold on his blade,knowing his physical strength was much stronger than that of a much smaller Morrigna. Paymon held his left hand out at Morri's shoulder and a black fog left his hand and his eyes glowed a bright red, the force flowed through him like a neverending waterfall. Paymon could then see it her right shoulder ligaments and tendons Paymon gave a soft smile on his face,though he wasn't seeing with his eyes but through the force,through the Jedi healing techniques,something he had learned to use in his own way. Paymon attempted to let the force rip all of her ligaments and completely shatter her shoulder."Now,my dearest Morrigna, I will show you the full powers of the Force."

*Morri rolled her eyes at Paymon... even if by some fluke he did manage to hurt her, he'd never convince her to stop fighting... and he'd never convince her to change her ways. She simply wasn't afraid of him... him or anyone else for that matter... after all... what was death? A break from the hell that was their everyday reality? A chance to torture and torment someone in the force eternally? No matter what happened to her... this man would pay for his sins... not that her sins were any less...
As she feels the ebb and flow of the Force change, she has an idea of what he may have up his sleeve... it was a trick that any former Jedi turned darkling could do... if that was what he wanted to call the full power of the Force... then he really was getting old... She makes no effort to fight against his force attack, it was not her weapon weilding hand after all... and who hadn't had a torn up shoulder before? Instead, she lets her lightsaber hilt roll up into the fingers of her left hand, exposing her palm, pinky and thumb towards Paymon... she lets the pain of his injury and the anger that she had boiling over fuel her energy, as she reached out with the Force in a gripping motion, focusing on his internal organs as she attempts to crush him from the inside out. One vital organ at a time... *
The force has forsaken you Paymon... games are for children... reality is for the grown ups...
*She says, as she hears the sickening crack of a couple bones in her right shoulder. Yes it was true it hurt like hell, and that she wouldn't be dual weilding in this fight... but she still had the Force... her biggest ally... The anger... the pain... it was written on her face... and for once she didn't give a damn...
Meanwhile the boy was cowered behind the bar... he had wanted to leave... but somehow he was drawn to watching the duo... their dance was almost intoxicating to him... not nearly as intoxicating as the good old bottle of black ti'haar he'd found back there though...*

Paymon knew what she was doing when he felt it and then he sighed, his work was complete it would take a lot to make her arm bearable but it would be quite a while before she would be using her right arm anymore. Paymon sighed,"Its time for you to learn the full extent to my power."he took a step back,completely ignoring the fact that it was getting harder for him to breathe, after all, he didn't depend on his physical body's health to always be at its best his original body was scarred and broken but he still moved worlds. Paymon sighed at Morri he took a step back deactivating his lightsaber and placing it on his belt, The force was completely built up in him from where he destroyed her shoulder,and now he planned to release all of it at once. Paymon held up his hands and a gust of cold wind rushed through the spire and then it was suddenly quiet and then he released it, The Grandmaster's strongest attack,something he never was fond of because it was barbaric and weakened even someone at his stature to some extent, a very strong force power called Force Destruction. As he released the force in this wave of destruction, everything in his path would be destroyed, The Spire would once again be in need of construction. The only bad part was that the Destructive wave was focused on Morrigna.

*Morri felt the strong surge of negative energy building around Paymon... she knew what was coming, as Force Destruction was a power she had specialized in... it was a quick end to a fight... and damned near impossible to stop... but she did at least have a moment to try and save herself... and the best news was that Johnathan and the boy were both safe from it's path... the boy being behind the bar at Paymon's back, and Johnathan... well who knew where that cha'kaar could be by now...
Diving to her left, as she had no desire to land on her right side at this moment, she took cover behind a large onyx table, using all of her body as a Force beacon, creating a wall type shield of force energy in front of herself... as she braced for impact...
When the destruction was finally released, glass, marble, durasteel, and duracrete went flying through space towards Morri... luckily for her, the protective wall kept most of physical items away from her, and a large portion of the Force energies as well... but she still flew back into the wall at the elevator doors... she knew her internal injuries would require a bit of healing... or a lot of it... maybe even ~gasp~ bacta baths... but she had done what she felt she had to... so she couldn't regret the fight... only that she hadn't fought better...
Everything was blurry, time seemed to move slower than usual... she knew she was alive, simply because it hurt like hell every time she took a breath. She glanced over in the direction of the boy... he was still vulnerable... she still had to fight... for his sake... with a battered and beaten body, Morri tried to make it to her feet... it was a slow and painful action... but she was trying... was she really going to become a failure now? It was so... unlike her... but did she have a choice?
Growling in annoyance at both herself and the situation, she finally makes it to her knees. She knew hand to hand wasn't an option... but she had a bit of force energy left... and if it killed her... she had to keep trying... As the blood streamed down from the cuts and gashes on her body, Morri offers the most powerful force wave she can straight at Paymon's chest... if nothing else... maybe she could blow him off the Spire and let him fall to his death.*
Ziur j'us is netvarka!!
*She screamed as the energy left her finger tips.*

Paymon laughed and flew back into the air,catching himself with the force and levitating there for a moment. "I told you once, Morrigna. I am the strongest of the strong.. I am the wisest of the wise and..."something peirced his chest..he wasn't sure what it was but it only stung a bit he looked down and saw the blood beneath his skin,ah so the force crush caused a blood vessel to rupture, oh well..that was an easy fix..He lowered himself to the rubble of what used to be the Spire and he started to walk towards Morrigna, sabers clanking on his belt. his cane was on the other side of the Spire.

Johnathan arrived only in time for the Force Destruction, Ah fuck.. he cursed in his head one because he could feel the force presence of who was here but mostly because that wave of force destruction most likely destroyed all of the drinks. He went up to the elevators trying to gain entrance but then he felt it, a weakened and hurt Morrigna..what was going on. Well he wasn't going to wait on the Spire's infamous slow elevators, he jumped into his speeder and asjusted it so he was almost flying straight up and right when it stalled out right below the top surface of The Spire Johnathan jumped out of his speeder off of the front of the vehicle and landed safely onto the Spire, and there he saw it. Morri laying on the ground in a pool of what looked to be her own blood and then there he was, Johnathan's own uncle and sworn enemy Darth Paymon.
Johnathan looked at Morri who was directly on Paymon's path then to Paymon and suddenly his anger overflowed his inner flame ignited to a full fledge torch he could taste the blood on his tounge he craved it. He wanted to kill Paymon more than anything and Johnathan looked to his side and there it was the Cane of Darth Paymon that held a cortosis blade. Johnathan couldn't help but crack a smile. He pulled it to his hand and then unsheathing the blade he made his move on the gameboard. He opened his soul to the force and then it happened he moved with all his power and might and charged for Paymon with Paymon's sword in Johnathan's right hand the blade pointed outward straight for the back of Paymon just to the left of his Spine a perfect place to pierce if one was trying to stab straight through the heart. If this move was successful Paymon would indeed die and Johnathan would whisper in Paymon's ear, "You left an opening..now your the fool." and remove the blade with a quick movement then kick Paymon in the back and at the same time sending a force push point blank to his back to surely send Paymon over the edge of the Spire.

*The final outburst of Force energy had totally depleted Morri's stores. She collapsed onto her hands, her breath heavy. She had to accept this was her time to die... there was nothing she could do about that... as she hung her head to accept her punishment, she felt someone all too familiar arrive.*
Damn it!
*She thought to herself, not wanting Paymon to notice their new company if it could be avoided. She felt Johnathan's anger grow... was he really about to throw away everything he knew to be good and right? Where was that goody goody Jedi... she had seen his temper flare earlier... but not like this...
She watched him grab the cane and run for his Uncle's back. She wanted to call out for him to stop... but it was too late, if she said anything now she put him at risk of being noticed... and that... she couldn't risk... no matter what it cost her. He was strong... she knew this... but she still didn't want him to face the same fate she was about to.
Force, let this spear connect...
*She screamed internally. She had finally fallen onto her side and could only watch for now... which pissed her off even more... she hated feeling useless... almost as much as she hated giving in... both of which she had done in the past few moments.*

Paymon approached Morrigna, and reached for his saber when suddenly. He a sharp pain in his back and the coarse fingers of Johnathan followed by the warmth of his breathe on Paymons ear. Paymon's mouth filled with Blood, blood that he spit out and then he said,"Let me drown in my melancholia and slip into my eternal darkness." Paymon said just as he felt the blade exit his body and he stood there for a moment then he felt the kick and the push and his body turned from the force he looked back at them just as he fell over the edge and as he fell he smiled and started laughing, it was done.. he had taught Morrigna how to use her full emotions once again and he had freed Johnathan from the grips of the Jedi..now...now he could rest forever as a dark soul in the never ending abyss of death. As Paymon fell his body evaporated and a huge gust of cold wind blew all over the planet and where Paymon's strong force presence once was was now void. Paymon was finished,but the sith..They were just getting started. The Great War had begun.

Johnathan sighed,"Gladly."was all he said and then as he watched his uncle go over the edge he turned to Morri and dropped the blade..he felt cold but he would survive. He ran to her and checked her over she was fine save for a few bruises and scrapes,then he saw it. Her shoulder was completely disfigured,something he knew would take time to heal..he kneeled by her and pulled her up where she would be more comfortable. "Why didn't you comm me?"he demanded.

*Morri felt the cold of Paymon's death, it caused her to shiver faintly. Even the toughest of Sith felt the elements from time to time. It was then that she felt Johnathan pull her up. She allowed herself to half lean on him for support, she knew her own strength could fail her at the moment... As Johnathan demanded an answer from her, she gave him a smile.*
Hey... it's me!
*She said simply, giving a wink. It was obvious within her eyes that she was tired... but she hadn't given up completely yet. She knew that answer wouldn't likely satisfy the stubborn man, but he'd earned that one. Reaching over with her left arm, she lightly nudged his side.*
Why didn't you listen when I told you to stay away?
*She asked, shaking her head slightly.*
You should've let me die, Kenobi... now you've taken a step I'm not sure you wanted to take...
*She says, in reference to his anger and killing of Paymon.*
... and sometimes... there's no going back...

Johnathan smiled at her,"To be honest I simply came here to get a drink..it just so happened..a certain duo of Sith destroyed any chance of me getting a drink but I felt you up here hurt..and I couldn't ignore it."he then listened to her, and replied with "Yeah, I don't know if you heard me correctly earlier but I said and I quote 'I won't go back there unless I have Paymon's head in my hand and You by my side.' and well..I don't quite think the Jedi would welcome that in the Temple.."he gave a wink. "Besides I tire of waiting around with the Younglings..I'm a Warrior..not some peace maker."he said then it occurred to him,why were the Sith here and why had Paymon and Morrigna turned on eachother.."Um..what were you too doing up here?"he asked her.

*Morri couldn't help but laugh. He was right... mules and goats and goody goodies would likely frown upon him showing up with a dead sith's head, and a bitchy sith witch at his side. She could see the look on Gert's face now... She listened as he spoke of his unhappiness amongst the Jedi, and could relate on multiple levels... they were many of the same reasons she had left so long ago.*
I hope you don't regret it...
*She said sincerely... though she couldn't help but be a little happy that he had finally realized there was more to him than what their brainwashing told him there was. When he finally asked the obvious question, she motioned in the direction of the drunk teen on the far side of the Spire.*
Him...
*She shook her head.*
His presence led us here... he has much potential... I don't know him... but... somehow he reminds me of a young girl I knew... one who got into more trouble than she knew how to handle simply because she wasn't sure what to do with herself and these strange abilities she had...

Johnathan smiled and looked into her eyes. "As long as I have you..I won't."he said then listened to her finish. "Ah.."he spoke,"I thought I felt something off."he gave her one of his old smiles, some would argue it to be his true smile. Then he reached out in the force and placed his hand right above her chest not quite touching her,then he poured his energy into her revitalizing her enough to where she would be able to stand and move on her own,though he knew her right shoulder would take some time to work on.
