Rajun entered the room, Jaxus was close behind and then entered six more people. Rajun sat down in the largest chair. It stood out amongst the rest, of which there were many and only six vacated them. Rajun gestured to the chair opposite his and a moment later, he sent the other Jensaarai on their way. Rajun sat there, his hood was still raised, a slight sense of mystery still surrounded him and he spoke.
[glow=teal,3,200]"Please, make yourself comfortable. Is there anything we can get for you, anything you would like?"[/glow]

"I am fine.... thank you..."
The Tarro said, somewhat confused at the sudden propriety...
"Could we just get this over with?"

[glow=teal,3,200]"As you will."[/glow]
Rajun sat, his cloak flooded over his face, a mask to those who sort to percieve him. He spoke again, a stragne and mysterious tone within his voice.
[glow=teal,3,200]"War still affects us even now. People on each planet suffer greatly. Children grow up parentless, men are beaten just because they can be and women are raped every hour on everyday. No one is safe, no one is innocent, this is the affect the Sith have."[/glow]
Rajun slowly stood and placed his arms behind him, taking hold of his own hand he paced before his grand chair, thoughts sat deep within his mind. To gain this person's trust he would have to say the right things. Maybe he didn't need that with the things he knew.
[glow=teal,3,200]"People of power scaunder what they have to gain to things, money and more power whilst the innocent sit rotting away, yet these are the people that make up the galaxy, they are as one, a people, just as you and I are.
The galaxy is in a state of despaire, and it will the help of you and many others to protect it. And the reason I am here, is to gather those who will protect the galaxy."[/glow]

Jaxus stood and wandered over to a far corner of the chamber, looking at the wall as one might look through a window. Which, for Jaxus, was just as well.
No material in the galaxy, from stone to durasteel to mandalmetal, is completely solid. Cracks, pores, spaces between molecules, all penetrate. Through these flaws, light is capable of passing through. It is for this reason that even the most opaque objects can translate light through themselves, provided enough light is given. These walls were no different. Jaxus' eyes were able to note these flaws, as well as the light that came through them. From there, rearranging the faded specks of light in his mind, along with depth perception due to the motion of his eyes in thier sockets, created a more than clear enough image of the events that took place on the other side of the wall.
Jaxus noted that, outside the chamber in which they stood, two men crossed by. Then, a few seconds later, the same two men passed by again. They continued to wak back and forth, patrolling the area outside the room. Guarding the exit.
So, I am not fully trusted, then..
The Tarro said to himself before turning back around to these people's leader.
"So then, this is what you do? Protect people? If this is true, then I agree with you. You do need to gather people concerned with the galaxy. You're sitting here, on this speck of a world. I'll bet I've done more to stop the Sith than you have. Either way, you don't need me. I'm not concerned with the galaxy's well-being. And I don't think it needs to be protected. The galaxy's been around a long time, and it seems to have made it so far."
A pause as the two men outside stopped right in front of where Jaxus stood, and the Tarro breathed.
"Things... things tend to work themselves out."
(OH, YEAH! Finals and the holidays were bad to my writing, but now I'm BACK! And I am feeling it!)

Rajun lifted his head, his lips could be seen as a smile spread eagerly across them.
[glow=teal,3,200]"I thought you might say that. And it may be true that you have done more, for all I have done is make this planet safe and secure, the people here feel safe with our protection. And like I said, the reason I have not left yet is because I was waiting for you."[/glow
Rajun moved from his side of the room closer to Jaxus. He moved briskly, a slight sense of ergency in his step.
[glow=teal,3,200]
"I have this unique gift, the force shows me many things. Glimpses of the future, of what is meant to be, even from my childhood I saw things before they happened. I knew you would come, the force showed me so."[/glow]
Rajun moved closer yet. But his smile faded in an instant.
[glow=teal,3,200]
"What you say tends to be true, however, what I have seen, what I know. It could never 'work itself out'. You see the Jedi are returning and that will spark yet another war. But in the darkness, something is stirring. Something unseen by both the Sith and the Jedi, yet the force has allowed me a glimpse. And I shall tell you. I do not gather people to protect the innocence against the war between the Jedi and the Sith. No, I am here to gather men and women of all races to defend the galaxy against... extinction."[/glow]
Rajun let out a long, deep sigh, facing up to the certainty before them.

Jaxus did not turn away from the wall. He didn't have to. Even though he did not face Rajun, he could still see every detail of him. 360 degrees of vision was fiarly easy to achieve once you learn how to bend light and read reflections.
"Extinction... Extinction? What sort of power strong enough to wipe out ALL LIFE in the galaxy could you possibly fight. Some kind of supernova.. or.. or a black hole? Or maybe the entire core of the galaxy is going to implode? Is that it? And just how are you... and these people... and... and I, supposed to stop that? What, with that armor of yours? Is that going to protect the innocents?"
Jaxus asked, both sarcastically and angrily, for, in the far back of his mind, he knew that what Rajun had said was true.

Rajun moved closer still, he was now only a few steps away from Jaxus. His robes masked his feelings and emotions. His armour lay next to his chair and he noticed as Jaxus had mentioned it. Before he spoke again he glanced at his armour but quickly looked back at Jaxus.
[glow=teal,3,200]"I can not fight it. Not alone. That is why I am doing this, gathering all of those I can. And we will not be alone, to fight the attack that will come we will need to rally the Jedi and the Sith to our cause. This by no means will be an easy task and telling them such things now would not work either, only shall we get those two factions involved when they see what they are facing. Then they will see, or we shall make them."[/glow]
Rajun sighed again and slowly turned back to his chair which he sat down on slowly.he let his left hand fall onto his armour and rested his hand upon it.
[glow=teal,3,200]"Like this armour protects me. The Jensaarai must be the armour to protect the galaxy. But we need the correct materials to construct such an armour. We need people who will defend the galaxy against the complete destruction of everything living. We need you Jaxus, the force wishes it so."[/glow]

Jaxus turned and faced Rajun. His eyes shimmered eerily underneathe his furrowed brow. Through these eyes, he could see every facet of the man's face, robes or no robes. The Tarro's body shook slightly as he spoke.
"If what you say is true... prove it to me. Let me know of your amazing gift the Force has given you. Tell me of the Future. If you can..."
Jaxus said, angry on the outside, his mind filled with thoughts of disbelief and embetance. Though, in the back of his mind, along the line between the conscious and the unconscious, he knew the real reason he had challegned this... prohpet.
He wanted the man to fail. If he failed, than he could not predict the future. If he knew not of events to come, then there would be no war, no extinction, none of this. And Jaxus could go home, none the guiltier for it, and things would sort themselves out, like they always have. But Jaxus had listened, and he had seen truth in this prophet's eyes. He was right. Jaxus knew it.
But that didn't keep him from wanting it to be wrong still.

(OOC: Damn it, could have sworn it wasn;t there before  . I need to try and remember these things  ) Rajun didn't move he just sat there and he quickly replied. [glow=teal,3,200] "You know that what I say is true, you feel it throughout your body. You wish it not to be so, but no matter what I say, you will still feel it. Just as I do."[/glow] Rajun smiled slight and he tabbed his finger against his armour the strong cortosis alloy that had been used to craft the intricat piece of armour. His mind trailed back a moment to distant thoughts of his childhood until he brought his focus back to the present. [glow=teal,3,200] "Do you think it a game of chance that you crashed on this small and insignificant moon that has been forgotten by the Jedi and Sith for over a thousand years? No, the force brought you here. As it did I throguh my vision. You must see that. Surely you can feel it?"[/glow] Jaxus' finger stopped immediately, his hand withdrew to rest on the chair. His smile vanished. [glow=teal,3,200]"But trust me when I say I wish it could be true, I would rather not be the one sitting here right now. I would preffer to be anywhere else. Living out my life knowing that I and the people I know were safe. But our families, the families of every living being are not safe. The only way we will survive is if we can fight them. But it will not be easy, by no means. We will be pushed to the brink of defeat. But if we fight and train hard, then the galaxy will be able to 'sort itself out'. But only after the thread is neutralized. Jaxus, I beg of you for the safety of the galaxy of the trillions on each planet. Will you stand with the Jensaarai"?[/glow] |

Jaxus listened, a bit put off by Rajun's dramatic tone. Once Rajun had finished his speech, Jaxus simply nodded his head and replied.
"You do know you won't be able to control me, don't you?"
(That was a "yes", by the way)

Rajun smiled and stood up. He pulled back the hood upon his cloak ad revealed his pale face and sharp jet black hair. His eyes gleamed blue for a moment in the light before seemingly diming.
[glow=teal,3,200]
"After I have trained you and the extermination begins. You will know yourself what you must do."[/glow]
He moved over and bowed.
[glow=teal,3,200]"But I must thank you Jaxus and the galaxy will thank you when you help bring an end to the chaos."[/glow]

Jaxus nodded again. He found himself somewhat eager.
"Alright then. Well, are we gonna get started, or wait until this extermination comes?"
(Yeeeaahhh, my posts tend to get shorter once things stop happening.)
