h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

This is my training arena.

When I am not off-planet on Jedi business I will usually be found here. If I am assigned a Padawan, this is where they will train.

My arena contains several separate areas :-

Ancha’s Quarters
A small room containing a bunk, a small wooden table and two chairs and a large cabinet. In one corner there is a small sink with only a cold tap. Around the walls are my only indulgence – bookshelves containing service manuals and build drawings for many types of spacecraft.

The Combat Training Area
A hard packed soil circle 20m in diameter, covered with a thin layer of sand. Suitable for hand to hand or weapons training. In a storage locker there are 6 droids to be used for training exercises. Next to the locker there is a fully equipped work station where damaged droids can be repaired.

The General Training Area
This is a combination of rough and grassed ground. Used for training other than combat, eg using the Force to manipulate objects. To one side of this area there are a few tables and chairs, a food dispenser and a drinks machine.

The Meditation Room
A quiet room which is soundproof inside when the door is closed. It is undecorated and its only furnishing consists of two comfortable reclining chairs. It is lit by a dim lamp in the centre of the ceiling.

The Perimeter (Apologies to Master Tarne Womarg for pinching this idea)
This is a forested area which completely surrounds the training area. A stream runs through the forest. The forest is populated by all manner of flora and fauna. This area can be used for training or relaxation.

~~PUPPET: Ancha, on Kamino you should be. Emergency we have been sent.

Sith attack, yeees.~~

*Ancha enters and goes to his quarters.*

*He opens the cabinets and pulls out some ordinary looking clothes.*

*He strips off his Jedi robes and changes into the clothes, hiding his 'saber and some other items among their folds.*

*Satisfied with his new image, he heads for the Hangar.*

~~Ancha, I was masquerading as a Sith. If questioned you dropped me off before going somewhere else, I'm now out of dusguise but on an abandoned pad.~~

< Can't do that, Force Shield is up>

< >

*enters the Arena and looks around*

Hmm.. Better than my digs....

*waits for Jo'ell*

Bleeding 'ell this is big aint it?

*stares at his new master for a moment as he seem to accept the fact his new padawan is going to be a right royal pain in the...buttocks*

So the Chief....errrr Master i mean, what do we do now????

*pulls his lightsaber from his pocket with the force and passes it to Jo'ell*

You're going to defend yourself. I'm going to give you three seconds to ignite that and get ready, then I'm turning them on...

*indicates droids with blasters*

It's easy, apart from one thing...

*places a blindfold over his padawan's eyes*

... you can't see them.

3..
2..

* suprised by the sudden swing of Things, Jo'ell thumbles with the lightsaber till he hears a cool sound assuming the lightsaber is on, Jo'ell then procceds to swing the thing about hoping to hit something*

You'r evil!!! but what the hell this isnt goi9ng to hur....OUCH!!...damn YOU!!!!

Use the Force young one. Feel the path of the shots, then swing to meet them. The force will make you faster so long as you concentrate.

Oh, and one.

*droids fire*

*six laser bolts hurtle towards the padawan*

Right concentrate, concentrate, it's a bit hard to concentrate when you've got lasers being fired at you and you cant see a thing, mind you reminds me of the time, bigg tommy dicided to hit us he used flash gernades n left me blind..ok do what you did then.....damn what did i do...i remember now......

*concentraing, Jo'ell listens to the sound as the droids take thier final steps before lefting loose the volley of lasers, he can almost make out where each one is and as he hears the lasers fire he begins to swing the saber much more calmer this time however*

finger's crossed!!!

*ducks out of the way of a deflected laser bolt*

Don't use your ears as much, listen less, feel more!

< there's no reason why you couldn't be following Keezo's apprentice right now... >

< well hurry up...

You're gonna merge into another storyline soon so I can't keep the others waiting! >

*stops the droids with a wave of his hand*

*takes back the lightsaber and removes the blindfold*

How about some in the field training.....

*roots around in the Arena*

*passes Jo'ell a crystal, a power cell, a metal tube and a set of schematics*

As soon as you have built your lightsaber, we will be leaving....

ermmmm, right, will do,

*staring at the schematics Jo'ell slowly puts to gether the saber*

Not to shabby, what do ya think?
