Quay'Na Rakai
Aug 24th, 2003, 08:21:19 AM
Quay'Na stared at the balance beam for a few minutes as she entered one of the empty training rooms. She needed to start living her life again, it had been a few weeks since Vega died and she'd done nothing, but stay in her quarters, once out of the med center.
Not that any of her friends hadn't tried to get to go out, which they had, but she had declined all of them.
With a deep sigh, she put down her water bottle and towel. The young Padawan walked over to a small storage cabinet and opened it. In it, was a selection of training sabre's and training orbs, which she grabbed a couple and selected a sabre.
With equipement in hand, she walked back over to the beam and carefully put it down. Her boots and socks were the first to come off. Quay'Na then removed both of her tunics and her pants and revealed a dark, blue spandex athletic bra and a part of matching shorts.
She flopped down on the mat and began a series of stretches, to limber up again. After feeling she'd done enough, she meditated for a few moments to get back in touch with the Force.
Once she felt comfortable, she stood and walked over to the beam, it was better to warm up first before using the sabre. With a quick and easy jump she was on the beam in no time. It felt good to be up there as she walked to one end of the beam with ease.
With a deep breath, she took off and sprang into a double somersault and landed gracefully with ease only a few inches away from the other end. Staying in that position, she raised her hands above her head and went into a careful back bend and then flipped over into a split, perfectly.
Quay'Na breathed deeply, her form was still good as she twisted her body enough to get a good hand hold on the beam and brought her legs up over her head into a graceful handstand. She stayed in that position as long as she could, then turned and rolled out of it and back to her feet.
She was ready...
Quay'Na jumped down from the beam and switched on the training orbs and let them go, they whizzed around the room for a few minutes, she set them on their lowest setting, so if she was hit it would do nothing more than sting a little.
Grabbing her trainig sabre, she bound off and sprang back onto the beam. Activating it, she got her balance and said, "attack."
The orbs zoomed around her and began firing. She blocked their fire with calculated ease, but then was ready for her 'real' work out. With the orbs firing, Quay'Na jumped. While directing their fire while she did and blocked it in the middle of a somersault. They fired again as she came down and blocked another shot aimed for her chest. She continued to twist and turn, jump, flip and roll as she blocked the onslaught of bolts from the orbs.
But, soon she wore out and before she knew it was hit between the shoulder blades, the sting caught her off guard and the other orb hit her in the stomach. "Ugh!" She fell and hit the mats, her training sabre skittering off out of her hands. "Stop!!" She yelled and lay there panting.
The orbs quit firing immediately and hung in the air.
