Zahira bowed proudly before Dooku, "Count Dooku. General." She nodded towards the cyborg warrior Grievous, who nodded back. "Zahira, you've arrived. I trust your trip to Zygerria was pleasant." Dooku spoke. "Of course count, it is wonderful this time of year." This made Grievous chuckle, he knew Zahira enough to know what she was really thinking about. "As you two know, i have been receiving a few close attacks by the Jedi, so mother Talzin has gifted me with my new bodyguard." "Mother Talzin?" Zahira knew of the powerful witch whom she wished to learn from one day to be even more powerful and connected with the force. "Zahira, Grievous, meet Savage Opress." Dooku pulled up a hologram of the tall night brother, which immediately caught Zahira's eyes. Grievous knew the look in her eye, Oh that poor man. He thought. "I must attend to a certain matter, but first, let's see how you two are coming along in you training." Zahira and Grievous went into battle stances. Grievous drew his four green and blue lightsabers, showing his extra two arms, and Zahira drew her two sharp, white, double-blades. Grievous plunge towards her wielding his sabers from different directions only for Zahira to catch them with hers, forcing them to one side and flipping over Grievous striking at his unguarded back, He blocked her with two lightsabers and using the rest to hit her back. Grievous trapped her with all four, only for her to untangle his trap and push him away, making Grievous lose his balance but only for a mere second. Zahira with drew her sabers and kneeled down as grievous charged Towards the undefended togruta. All of a sudden, right as Grievous's deadly beams were inches of Zahiras face, he stopped, completely unable to was what differed Zahira from most jedi and sith, she kept intact with the force, letting it flow through her, feeling its power, she wanted to fully explore the force, to train with sith and jedi, using every bit of it she could. Zahira grinned as she stood up to the cyborg, and with one simple wave of her hand Grievous was upon the ceiling and fell harshly to the the ground. Within a second, Zahira cornered Grievous with her sharp blades. "Well done Zahira," The sith grinned at his student's power, "Now, i must see to Cad Bane, do not disturb me." Zahira put away her blades and helped Grievous to his feet using the force. "You couldn't have been more gentle." He coughed, "That's no fun." Zahira tilted her head to the side, "At least go easy on the new guy, that nightsister witch probably has some spell on him." "That's never stopped me." Zahira answered mischievously. Grievous eyed her suspiciously, "You're not wearing anything under that cloak are you."

Savage gripped the ship's controls, the bounty hunter sitting in the seat next to him obviously didn't get the hint that he wasn't in a "chatty" mood. " Aw, come on pal, i'm just trying to break the ice here." Bane grinned, if it weren't for the mother's blasted spell, Savage would slaughter the man before he said another word. "So why does a sith like Dooku suddenly need a bodyguard?" "Count Dooku has been recently attacked." Savaged answered hoping the creature would shut up. "Have the jedi actually gotten smart, HA! Thats a good one, those peacekeepers wouldn't kill him if he walked right up to the jedi temple and surrendered!" Savage didn't know much about these jedi, except that the sith don't like them, and they do not like the sith. "My money's on it being his old assassin, Ventress. That woman does not cope well with revenge." Bane chuckled to himself. "Revenge?" "That count left her for death during a battle against the Republic, but knowing her, she probably escaped. Asajj Ventress is a tough woman to kill." Savage flinched at his mistress's name, maybe this Duro was smarter than he looked.
