The Sparring Match

Star Wars is the property of George Lucas.

The azure blade streaked down on Jaquad's right side and he sidestepped to the left, quickly raising his blade in an upward arc towards the enemy's chest. That is what he thought during a battle, no names or faces, just him and the enemy. The enemy's blade was instantly there and blocked his blade but Jaquad was already initiating a spin move that brought his blade parallel to the ground and traveling on a path towards his enemy's head. His enemy ducked and the azure blade then streaked towards his left leg. Calling on the force, Jaquad flipped backwards and upon landing dropped into a fighting crouch where his left foot was extended in front of him and his lightsaber was extended straight towards his enemy.

His enemy lunged toward Jaquad and then Jaquad gave himself fully to the force so that it allowed him to easily parry the strike that was aimed at his heart, and lunge towards his enemy. Elbowing his enemy in the stomach he then reached into the living force and expelled it in a wave toward his enemy. His enemy easily stopped the push and came forward in an intense attack that had Jaquad defending for almost a minute. The blades were just great blurs in the air and anyone watching would have been amazed at the speed that the blades deflected off of one another.

Jaquad, sensing an opening, lunged forward and then quickly dropped to the ground to see that the opening had been a calculated error on the part of his enemy, as the azure blade whizzed overhead. Grabbing hold of his enemy's leg he pulled him to the ground beside him and in the process his enemy lost his hold on the azure blade. Summoning the blade to his hand, Jaquad stood-up and held the blades tip to his enemies throat

"Stop, young padawans," came a voice from the edge of the chamber. Jaquad was instantly on guard, quickly raising his green blade and the azure blade in a simple defensive posture. Then he relaxed as the figure of Jedi Knight Qui-gon Jinn stepped into the light. Jaquad instantly powered down both blades and turned to help his friend Obi-wan Kenobi up off the floor.
