He walked with a little more bounce in his step as they headed inside the Observatory once they arrived to the Library Archives. They headed down the mechanical hall towards the maintenance area. He ushered inside the area so that no one would suspect them. Walking over to the Planetary console, he used the Force to unscrew the bolts. Once inside he began to change the settings of the Planets in every system. "You think if I make the planets chase them would be too much?" He asked her, actually debating it. "Or should I just keep it to the basic whirl and twirl?"

Karan's eyes gained a mischievous gleam as she stared at the console. "No, I think chasing them will be just fine," she said, a sly smile coming over her face.

"Yeah...I didn't think it was much either." He smiled and began to mess with the mechanics again. "Okay, done...come on...before we miss the show!" He pulled her out of the room and began to hurry down the hall to the planetary observatory. They reached the place just in time. He skidded to a stop and sneak them in to watch on the balcony. "Here it goes." He chuckled right when the lights went off and the librarian was done giving her lecture.

Karan watched as the lights went out. At first, everything seemed fine, and the younglings were in awe of the image of a thousand planets that formed their galaxy. Then one of the planets stopped orbiting it's sun and went after a small Twi'lek girl. Soon, all the planets were out of control, and the kids were shrieking and running everywhere. Karan snickered, thorougly enjoying the mayhem being caused.

Liam stifled his laughs as he watched the Younglings scream about and as the Librarians tried to calm the students. "CLOUDSTRIDER!" Liam heard on of the librarians scream in the dark. "Uh oh. Time to go." He grabbed Karan's hand and pulled her away from the room. They ran down the hall when Liam sensed his Master and the librarians around the corner. Liam skidded to a stop and without clearly explaining what was going on to Cloudtop, pushed her into one of the mechanical rooms.
"Cloudstrider." A gruff voice shouted to the side. Liam straightened up, clouding Karan's presence from his Master. "What have I told you, my Apprentice? Why did you INSIST on trying the Council's patience?" His voice was stern, but full of concern as well. "I'm sorry, Master." Liam glanced down, jaws clenched. "Your behavior is unacceptable! I cannot protect you from the Council's wrath forever." "I know, Master. I am sorry." "Are you, Cloudstrider? You have a funny way of showing it." "Save your breath, Master Cloudflyer. He will not be shown mercy this time! I will personally ask the Council to dismiss him from the Academy!!!" The old librarian's voice shrilled. "You, BOY, have no respect for anyone but yourself. You care for no one but yourself! YOU ARE NOT A JEDI!" Those last words hit Liam hard as he tensed up. "Master Cloudflyer. I request the boy's lightsaber." "What?! Master, she cannot ask for that!"Liam shouted out. "I can and I am. I report directly to the Council and have the authorization to do such! You will be relieved of your weapon until the Council comes to a fair verdict." "Master?!" Liam glanced at him for help. "I am sorry, Liam, but she has the right, and this I have no say in the matter. Please." He extended a hand for the lightsaber. "No." Liam held back tears. "I've worked too hard." The Librarian scoffed, but Cloudflyer ignored her. "Please." He repeated. Reluctantly, he handed his white lightsaber over to his Master, who handed it to the Head Librarian, who, turned sharply and exited with it. "Master?" "I will do my best, my Apprentice. You must report to the Council when called for, do you understand?" "Yes, Master." Liam glanced down again as he heard his Master's boots echo away from him as he followed the Librarian out.
Liam stood there, in the hallway, fighting back tears and anger...alone.

Karan felt the others' presence just as Liam shoved her into the mechanical room. When she heard what the masters were planning to do to him, she felt herself grow angry. They were planning to kick him out? For just having a little fun? That most certainly didn't seem right to her. As soon as the others left, she lost it. Using Force TK, she threw the door off its hinges and into the far wall. She walked over to Liam. "They can't do this!" she said, struggling to keep her voice down. "They know we are better than this! We have talents that they simply don't see! We can reach higher than they have!" She held her tounge after that before she started ranting. Was she even making any sense? What was she talking like this. Again, she felt her name being whispered from the forbidden Force. Enticing, soothing. She was tempted...so very tempted to rush into it, to feel it. Maybe that was what the Masters were restraining them from. The supposed "dark side" could make them better and stronger.

Liam turned when he heard the door behind him crash down. Instinctively he went for his lightsaber, but didn't find it. His face saddened. Liam listened to Cloudtop rant, trying very hard to control his emotions - if he didn't he knew he would be more vulnerable to the Dark Side. "Cloudtop, it doesn't matter." He finally said, not believing his own words. "They can TRY to kick me out...its not the first time." He tried to hide his real emotions with a fake smile. "I know we can reach higher, but we need the proper guidance." He said simply. "and they are the ones to give it." He sighed. "I will follow what the Force has destined for me." He smiled again, but his eyes showed some sadness. "Come on, its nothing." He took her hand. "Follow me, I want to show you something."

Chorro rushed to the council. As soon as he found one of the masters he quickely got his attention. "Master. A dark Jedi just attacked us at Karan's room. He killed a man and then tried to kill us. We attempted to arrest him, but he escaped." "This is troubling news. I will inform the other masters as soon as possible. In the mean time, I think you should continue your day as usual. May the force be with you, Clear Horizon." Chorro bowed to his master and obeyed his instructions. The Ithorian plodded off to the market. Nothing like a big bowl of vegatables to calm an Ithorian's mind.

Karan shook her head ever so slightly, but said nothing. Her mind continued to rant on, though. They're not letting us know our full potential. They're hiding something from us. I know it. That dark Jedi or Sith or whatever had something that none of us have, and the masters know it. But I'm going to find out, someday. I know I will. She smiled a little as Liam took her hand. "Where are we going?" she asked.

Liam smiled slightly. "Its a surprise." He led her through downtown and further down until they were near the outskirts of the main city. There were several rundown buildings in the area, so not many knew about their existence. Taking them up to the tallest one (OOC: think Space Needle), he helped her maneuver through some of the broken windows so that they were now standing on the top edges.
"This is were I go whenever I get in trouble." He motioned for her to sit down and then sat down next to her. "You can see most of the lights of the city here." He gazed out. "It gives me peace. I thought you might enjoy it, not many know about it." He sighed. "Just looking out at all these lights makes me feel like I have no limits...that I'm just me." He sat still, looking out at the blinking night lights. (OOC: I'm assuming their adventure took all day. lol)

Karan stared out into the night sky, feeling a calming sensation come over her. "It's so peaceful up here," she said quietly, amazed at the beauty of the city. For the moment, she forgot about her hate and anger over Corran's death. For the first time, she was content, even a little happy. She leaned against Liam as she lost herself in the city lights. "It's beautiful..."

Liam remained quiet, just taking the scenery in. When Karan leaned against him, he felt his heart skip a beat or two and hoped she didn't hear it. He placed a warm arm around her as he caught the scent of her hair. "Yeah...it sure is." He whispered. They sat there longer, taking in the lights and the peace.
(OOC: ahhh, young love. lol)

occ: You guys just want me to ruin this don't you!?
Doomsday backed away cautiously from the group of men walking toward him. They all raised their blasters and pointed it at him threateningly. He had removed his mask for fun since most thought him a easy target after that's since he also liked to downsize his evil energies. "Now now boys lets not do anything hasty!" He pulled out a powerful thermal detonator and smiled as he tossed it at the building and set it off. He created a Force Barrier to shield himself from the explosion but it tore through the building and his attackers destroying all piece in the area.

OOC: aw...so sweet. lol, too bad it'll probably be ruined when she becomes a Sith. Hey, maybe he can be part of the reason why she converts back to Jedi!!! lol!
Karan smiled as she stared out at the cityscape. Everything was so calm...so peaceful and beautiful...until an explosion shattered it. It was so unexpected that it made her jump. "What was that?" she asked, gazing over the city until she caught sight of angry red flames around a burning building.

OOC: Yeah, that could work! Hehehe.
Liam's eyes darted over to the sound of the explosion. "Something not good." He stood and helped her up. "They're might be people injured; we need help. I have a feeling that was no ordinary explosion." He escorted her back into the building and they ran down and towards the blazing building.
