:: Depressed, Turbogeek settled on a planet far away from anyone. Hos beloved Jedi in disarray, fallen far from the path of light, he had decided to go it alone as he no longer stay on the path of Jedi if he did.
and worse, the blade he had once used once was in pieces. It was the fabled athona, a ancient lightsabre woven with the very essance of the Light Side, unable to be touched by a Dark Side, unable to be destroyed, or so he had thought. So had they all thought, to be proved wrong. He had the main pieces, the activator assembiles and the emitter, some of the handle, but not enough to put it together.
He sat down, sifting the peices he had salvaged, wondering what to do.
Dont wonder, do.
The voice sounded from nowhere, the Jedi looked about, seeing no-one but sensing something.
Furthermore, the saber is enchanted by ancient Jedi Spells with different interesting effects. One of them is the blade warns when there is evil about, by glowing in a peculiar manner.. Do you remember those words? Do you not wonder what else can be done?
Turbogeek turned again, this time seeing the form of Ood Bnar, a Jedi Master from so long ago....
"I did. But it didnt save it Mastrt Bnar"
Look in the book you have. May the Force be with you Jedi.....
The book thought DT? Oh yes, the Book of Knowledge! But he couldnt read that thing.... well, it was worth another go. He opened the book and then simply opened a page, opening to a chapter of sabre construction. But, to his surprise the words now could be read whence they couldnt before, the meaning's on this page clear... it described the Athona! Becoming interested, he read closer
"The blade of a Jedi cna be made impregetrable to the Dark Side, rendering the blade an extention of the Force, unable to be used or destroyed by the Dark Side. To do this, a Jedi must....." Turbogeek read on almost in disbelief at these words, wondering where in the froce such power came from? Sure, it was rumoured Jedi of long ago could control matter in any form, but this was hardly a step below that. He reached forth and picked up a piece of the blade, studying it, scanning it with the Force.
Closing the book slowly, he realised the blade really did have presence in the Force, distinct and clear. How was this possible?
Unbelief is the key to failure DT, he reminded hiself. Maybe that is the problem, I no longer believe like I did....He decided that he would Do. There was no Do Not. Foucusing on the blade, he began to struggle with the Force, to seek the correct power, to seek the correct combination that would open up this deep secret.
He didnt eat nor did he drink for three days. Nor did he sleep, imposing his will on the force, demanding it do as he wanted it to. His hands worked on the handle, blindly but guided by the Force
--
A day later, he came out into the field form the hut he was in, bearing a strange weapon, a cross between a sword handle with a sbare handle where the beginnigs of the blade should have been. Odd, it may be, but hopefully....
Throwing the object ing the air, he swept up his normal blue sabre and tried to cut the thing in half. It glowed red and his sabre blade shut off, but otherwise the odd weapon was unharmed. Hmmmm - not even a Cortoros shield and it could do this!
--
A day later and the tests were complete. The Sabre was now complete, cannibalised parts and the original remains, some Firestones and the strange sabre was ready to be switched on.... he picked the handle up, the unique dual handle with it's shearing guards, 45 centemetres long from pommel to emitter. He lifted the handle up in a tight two hand grip and them, using hte anicent Jedi formula, issued the command for the blade to ignite. The glowing blade came to life, glowing red then shifting, changing colours.
Ood Bnar seemed to shimmer to life again, a warm smile on his face as he saw the blade live again.
This time Master Turbogeek, no Dark side trick can claim it....it too is one with the Force....
Yes.... Darkness could not extinguish Light, but Light could get rid of Darkness. Only if Light permitted itself to go out would Darkness triumph, but for one this Jedi would never go out, his light would always burn fiercely. Darkness would flle from him and he would be the Jedi like no-one had ever seen before or would ever see again.
The Athona seemed to turn into a sword of flame.
