"If not, I'll take it from your inanimated corpse!" Noxis said and walked towards Jisko. "Let's not make this difficult. Hand me the recording, and I'll be on my way. Taris needs their Lort Ithalius!" He said and walked forth between the walls in the hallway, keeping a constant look at Jisko. "I'm the best of you, and we both know it!" He said with a slight whispering voice. He siezed his movement on top of one of the soldiers. "Your choice" He said and the double bladed lightsabre was ignited. One red coloured blade ignited on each side of the sabre handle.
"The wise actions are are not mine do to. I leave the thinking to my master. Now hand it over!" He said and walked towards Jisko with a glare of anger in his face. "Before some pathetic master come to save you, Jedi, I'm far gone with the recording taken from your hands with me!" He seized his movement approximated five meters away. "Last chance, Jedi!"
Without a word, Noxis stationed himself in a battle stance. "May the force be with you" He said and by using the force, he launched the dead soldiers towards Jisko as a distraction. He splinted towards Jisko and leaped. Upon his landing he swung his sabre horizontaly towards the Jedi. The sabres clashed, and Noxis spann around, striking him from the other direction with a rappid pace.
The soldiers had inhibited Jisko's vision, and he was barely able to block the Sith's first strike. He had been planning to counterattack, but his opponents' swift movements prohibited this. He wheeled around and slashed at Ithalius' blade's attack. He cut into it, and then spun around Noxis, attempting to stab in the back.
One extremely rapped gathering of focus, made Noxis leap up into the air, dodging the swing by half an inch, as the sabre touched the bottom of his shoes. While mid-air, Noxis turned and trough forcepush launched Jisko towards the wall. "You are not to defeat me. It is not your destiny" He said and grinned, as he crounched and looked the Jedi into his eyes and like a feather landed on the ground.
"My.. Quite the persistant" Noxis said and charged at Jisko. After charging towards him, Noxis went to knees, sliding along the floor and as he reached Jisko, a swing came from the right that Jisko easily could dodge. With high strength, Noxis swung from the left, and instantly after the right, then left again, using both side of his sabre as effective as possible. "Sense the fear, kid.. Sense, embrace and enjoy it!"
Jisko quickly dodged the feign, but was almost too slow to react to the next attack, but, after that, he got in a rhythm and brought his sabre to meet the next two thrusts with ease. "I've already sensed the fear, and I do enjoy it, but I do not let it consume me as it has become apparent you have." With this, Jisko began to hack away at Noxis, hoping to wear him out, knock him off balance, or find a weakness in his defenses.
"Ah, yes.. It has consumed me, and thanks to my anger, I no longer fear!" He spoke as he leaped backwards, to regain control of the fight. He stepped forward again, this time attacking verticaly from above. Once the Jedi parry that move, Noxis would come from belove, using his double bladed sabre to full effect once more.
Jisko ducked as he blocked Noxis' attack to absorb some of the force of the blow. When his opponent began attacking low again, he lunged over it and rolled a good twenty feet. "Why would you want to get rid of your fear? I find nothing more exhilarating than fighting a force more powerful than my own."
((I had fun reading those ^ posts guys.. 😄 ))

OOC: I'm aware that Tifa set up beacons to warn her if somebody is approaching. Dero will probably set off one or more of these beacons as he makes his way towards Tifa and Noxis's ship. But I doubt there would be some way for her to hide the ship from us when we're that close so I'm going to go ahead and just find it.IC:
Dero and Jaeh walked through the jungle, finally coming to the clearing he had mentioned earlier. At first, nothing got Dero's attention, as he scanned the area. They both climbed the hill towards the tree that was atop of it. When they got to the top, it seemed they had found what they were looking for."This ship has landed way too far from the temple to be the transport of the Jedi here," Dero said. "I think we should see what's inside."
Dero tapped the buckle of his belt to send a signal to D5-22 to come to his position. However, there was no response signal to confirm that the droid got his hailing. "That's odd," he said looking at Jaeh. "I'm trying to contact Deefive but it's not responding. I don't think we're too far from the temple for me to be out of range. Actually, I'm 100% positive that I'm not out of range for Deefive."
Dero unclipped his saberstaff from his belt and started towards the ship. "This day is getting stranger and stranger."
"We're not that far from the temple... i hope nothing happened or something." Jaeh said. She cautiously walked towards the ship. "I think the door's locked." She looked around. "Is it just me, or is there someone else around here?"
master nel was walking down a hallway hearing slaming and saber clashing sounds.. ''hmm..?'' ...whos this?, he thought to himself?..un cliping his saber from his belt.. seeing the sith as it seems was fighting jisko.. ''hey sith! why dont you fight someone your own power?'' ..motioning jisko to run and keep the message safe...
OOC: sorry i did't reply forever i fell down the stars and broke my leg and had to stay in the hospital.. but im glad to see we made progress...
OOC Jaeh: I'm pleased that you found it interesting, Jaeh 🙂
OOC Nellis Munn: Welcome back. I hope you feel better. Pleased you could join us. 😈
Noxis took one step backwards and took a deep breath. "Why I would want to?" He said to Jisko. "Oh, I have fear. Just not to little kids like you!" He said and turned silent when he heard the voice of Nel. Looking slightly to the right, and there he stood. "Do you mind? I'm in the middle of a murder here!" He said to Master Nel with an annoyed tone in his voice. Behind Noxis, a circus of twenty feet were Jisko, and in the other direction, about the same distance were Master Nel. "You'll have to make an appointment" He said before turning, and charging towards Jisko again. He slowed down when reaching half-way, and dropped an remote explosive device right behind one of the dead Black Hand troopers. With a quiet voice, he looked at Jisko "Give me the recording, and your friend will not be harmed. I've gone easy on you, so do not let me make an effort this close to the end."
Noxis roared and splinted towards Jisko in a charge of anger, and using forcepush, Jisko was launched away serveral yards. Not stopping there, Noxis bended down and grabbed the foot of another dead Black Hand trooper, throwing it in Jisko's direction with strength far above normal.
He was about to strike at Jisko, when he stopped next to the room of Jik'Leth. He looked at Jisko, then into the room and the dead Jedi. "One moment" He said kindly, and turned into the room. On his way inside, he turned around, and by using the force he launched the already loose door towards Jisko as an distraction manourver.
Once inside the room, he bended down to Jik'Leth. "What do we have here?" Noxis said, picked up the lightsabre of Jik'Leth and laughed as he ignited it. "Oh, Jedi! Alright out there?!" He shouted and started walking out of the room again, holding his dual-bladed sword in one hand, removing one of the blades, and the other sword in the other hand. It shined in a bright yellow colour.
Jisko cut through the dead trooper, and went after Noxis. The dorr managed to hit him, though, and he retreated a few feet to regain his balance. "I'm fine, but let's see how you are after we're through with you." Jisko spat. He ran at the Sith, and, just as they were about to clash blades, he leapt into the air, soaring just over the reach of his opponents' lightsabres. He then brought his lightasabre down, trying to force his way through Noxis' defenses.
