Once Von returned Vormund, Johun grasped it and secured it to his right hip. Johun remained cross-legged. with his eyes closed as he responded to Von. Johun didn't use his mouth though, instead he spoke through the Force...
What style would that be?

Von pushed off on the wall and strolled into the room, finding a seat in front of Johun he places himself down. Looking at Johun he speak also through the force
Well, I don't know the footwork just yet but I would really like to try and utilize it in a combinational form. But I liked the second form, Makashi I believe it is. Then there's Ataru after that I got to Shien and Djem So, I skimmed that one and then red a little on Jar'Kai. But those are the ones I really want to learn minus Jar'Kai

Johun opened his eyes an looked directly at Von.Interesting choices. I myself practice Soresu and Shien/Djem So. I can each the basics of all seven styles however. Johun stood, using the Force to grab 2 training sabers off of the all, bringing one to Von and the other to himself. Igniting the training saber's blade with a typical snap-hiss, Johun entered Soresu's opening stance.Show me what you already know.

Von smiled as he watched Johun ready himself for battle, Von had seen Soresu used before and knew what to expect. Von took the training blade from Johun ignited it in the same fashion. Von had to recount on what he knew about the forms. Though he didn't know what was what and what footwork went where. He decided it was best if he just used the form that he knew, or rather come to know while residing on Korriban.
Von stood up right, breathing in slowly. In through his nose and out through his mouth, his feet planted apart. His body half twisted with his right hand swept across his front and down. While his left hand held the hilt of the blade was above his head in a horizontal way with the blade pointing to the side. Juyo stance
I'm not all to sure if this is even one of the seven forms but I remember coming across this stance while I resided on Korriban. But I can't remember where or how for that matter. Von snickered to himself for a moment before lunging forward, twisting his body around allowing the blade in his hand to flow freely in a downward twisting motion. Von's left wrist turning to the left as he brought his arm down to strike at the section between the neck and right shoulder of Johun's body. To increase the strength Von's right hand grabbed the the hilt just underneath his left hand.

Johun pushed his right arm upward, keeping his saber horizontal, to meet Von's downward saber strike. While doing so, Johun aimed a Force Push at Von's torso with his left hand, hoping to catch the Padawan off guard.

Why is it that she was always running late like this... she hated being late and this would end up being the third time when Von was involved. Upon entering the training room she noticed that they had already started so at the very least she would be able to see at least a portion of of the fight this time. She made her way around the side trying not to make any pronounced distractions, and watched to see how this would unfold.

Johun pushed his right arm upward, keeping his saber horizontal, to meet Von's downward saber strike. While doing so, Johun aimed a Force Push at Von's torso with his left hand, hoping to catch the Padawan off guard. With Von’s sword making contact with Johun’s sword, Von slid his wrist up causing the blade to slide down towards Johun’s hilt. Looking at Johun he smiled, he was having fun, though what happened next caught Von off guard. As the practice blades edge slid down towards the hilt of Johun’s hilt he caught glimpse of Von’s hand disappearing from his line of sight. Looking down briefly Von saw his Master’s hand aimed towards his torso. At the moment he knew he wasn’t prepared to deflect the next move. Von’s surroundings slowed down to a point, his bodies reaction time seemed to slow but his mind was constantly moving, constantly thinking of a way he could some how get out of the attack directed towards him. Though everything he came up with would end up causing him more harm than if he just accepted the fate and took the hit. Waiting for the hit Von looked back up towards Johun, he looked at how he was holding himself, where his blade was held up and how the push of the force would be directed towards his torso. Looking behind he saw nothing but space that laid in wait for his arrival. He saw a chance, he saw an opening or at the very least an opportunity to do at least something.
Von loosened up on his weight his legs, allowing the attack to give him a greater push effect. Von reached out his right hand and aimed it towards Johun himself; he positioned himself perfectly to look as if he was also going to pull the same move on Johun. He wanted to make it seem as though he was going to pull a reckless counter that would probably send them flying towards different ends of the room. Though this was not the case, just as the push was coming Von pulled back his left hand and accepted the push. He felt a huge wave thrust into his torso sending his legs to leave the ground, his body went limp for but a sec. But the distance between Johun and himself was growing further and further apart. Reaching out, Von’s right hand gripped the air around him. His palm aiming towards Johun’s chest, drawing in on the force Von performed a force pull against Johun’s body in hopes that the momentum of push that caused Von to lift away towards the wall would also cause enough force to rip Johun from his position and fly towards himself. Though Von would be ready just in case it happened to fail, as he twisted his body in midair to meet the force of the wall against his legs.

Johun was impressed my Von's quick thinking. While not completely unprepared for a counter through the Force, Johun wasn't in a good position to stop the pull. As Johun was pulled toward Von, Johun cocked his right arm back, preparing it for a counter or strike once he hit the floor.

Johun looked at Kulaan.
What style(s) have interested you?
*Do to lack of involvement from Von Verros and Kulaan this Story Arc has been suspended.*

*Kulaan looked back towards Johun and answered simply.*
I have shown a preference towards Makashi and Ataru, with a tendency to fall back to Soresu at times.
*At least she had figured this is why they were here and remembered to bring her training saber with her, as that was a poor habit she picked up on Felucia.*

Johun thought as Kulaan spoke.
These are all good choices. Have you ever used any of them in a combat situation?

*Kulaan shook her head slightly.*
Not in any actual combat situations, during practice and some well supervised skirmishes, but nothing other than that.

Well let's see what you know.
Johun ignited Vormund's icy blue blade with a typical snap-hiss. He then assumed Soresu's opening stance; Johun held the blade back in a one-handed grip in his right hand, angled forwards with the left arm held parallel, his left hand held up in a challenge. The right foot was positioned back.

Kulaan nodded slightly, drawing the training saber she had brought with her from Felucia. She took a deep breath letting it out slowly as she ignited the yellow blade vertically in her right hand. Facing Johun she brought the saber down to her side pointing towards the floor, skipping the unnecessary flourish. She approached slowly moving a slight bit to her right turning her right side to allow her right hand to be pointed more towards Johun, her tail angled down and away from Johun ensuring its safety behind her body.
Once in range her strike was fairly basic, her right foot stepped forward, with her left planted behind it, with her knees slightly bent she thrust her saber forward towards Johon's waist. A simple strike designed just to break the ready stance, and get things moving.

After walking through the halls, Kahn made the choice to engage in some training. As he entered he noticed another pair already there, a master an apprentice. He had heard of such a relationship. It was one that was possibly created when a youngling became a little older than he was. However, due to his progression, it was determined that he, too, would be able to be taken on as an apprentice. At the moment, though, none were available for him. Until such a time that one became open to train, he would continue on his the classes with the other younglings.
Moving on to another area, Kahn went to a locker that held the training equipment for the younglings. He already had a training saber on him. All he needed was the remote and a shield. Activating the remote, it hovered to life and began preparing itself. He then put the shield over his head and blocked his view from it. The first few times had proven to hold some stings. Yet with further training with the others, he came to see the remote with the aid of the Force. Now he seemed to flow with ease, the sight coming as if second nature to him. Igniting his blue training saber, he progressed with the training, blocking the bolts the remote fired his way.

Johun side-stepped to his right, angling his saber downward, but still toward Kulaan, at a 45 degree angle. He swept his saber from his right to left (Kulaan's left to right) in an effort to simply deflect her saber away, in true Soresu fashion.
A good first strike, but simple. You have an advantage many do not. Your tail. Your saber is an extension of you. Allow the Force to guide your movements.

The training room was relatively busy, Streik's senses told him as much, as the door hissed open he entered as serenley as a talon footed two metre tall Chistori could his accute reptilian gaze sweeping the room in a single movement of his head. There were plenty practising today, two junior members with a Master and a much younger boy farther away. Streik paused momentarily as he breathed in the smells and listened to the iconic clash of plasma as the Master duelled the learner and the repetitive singing of low powered ion charges meeting the younger males weapon. Instead of immediately leaping into a flurry of advanced moves as some might, he instead moved to the wall and proceeded to observe the passing down of knowledge from Teacher to learner.

You have an advantage many do not. Your tail. Your saber is an extension of you. Allow the Force to guide your movements. Her opening was deflected simply, no surprise by any means. As Johun moved in to deflect her strike she had started to move as well, drawing her arm back slightly while turning her wrist upward to allow Johun's counter to continue without catching. Moving her right leg back she moved to mirrored Johun's motion as she stepped to her right as well so that they were circling around a central point, allowing the sabers to spark briefly against each other before passing as she pulled it back slightly further and rotated her wrist down to position to block if needed but also setting up for a quick slash at his right shoulder. Listening to the points he was making she smiled slightly even in the situation. True, my tail does help with balance, but for some reason... It was here that she punctuated her sentence with the slash, expecting this one to be countered as well. Everyone seems to want to try to chop it off while were fighting... for some reason. She stated simply with a slight half smirk half grimace.

Johun rotated his saber upward in a clockwise, at least to him, motion. It was designed to deflect Kulaan's slash further out to his right. He pushed his left arm out aiming a Force Push at Kulaan's chest.

Entering one of the unoccupied training rooms, Hyatt holds his arms out at his sides as he says with hearty good cheer, "Here we are then. Pointing out the different items he speaks of, the native Corellian explains, Training blades are on the wall there, training remotes are in the cabinet there. Training droids are there and there. Lifting his hands questioningly, Hyatt asks Jonas, What's your pleasure?"
