Master Unduli sighed faintly, leaning back. "I cannot win this argument on logic alone it seems. But the Force is not the most logical of phenomena in any event. Further the corrupting effect of the Dark Side is real, the danger of it too great to allow for attachments which might lead to those feelings. Still, it will be the Council's decision whether or not to separate them, or to even try to break their bond. I will abide by their decision." With that the woman stood up and moved to the door, closing it gently behind her.
Lilly shook her head staring at the door for a moment before turning to look at her friend. "You know before all of this came up I actually liked her."
"Luminara is a product of both the Order and her own species. The Mistrali tend to be rather cautious in terms of courtship and things of that nature, and I think there is also a certain amount of wistful jealousy within her as well. After all, you were correct in saying that Harry and Aayla's bond would stop them from feeling jealousy, or being overly anxious about one another, which are the most common ways that attachments can lead to the Dark Side. I also sense that Luminara has an interest somewhere else, a wistful 'what if' in her mind." Fay shrugged. "She might come around eventually, but even if she doesn't she won't interfere."
"I hope so, like I said, I liked Luminara before this." Lily said with a laugh, then turned serious. "You know, not only should we start our little project soon, but I think we can turn it into a two birds with one stone kind of deal. After all, why should we limit ourselves to Aayla's memories about what almost happened to her Why not use your memory of the feeling through the Force when Harry and Aayla met again physically?"
Master Fay's eyes widened. Why did that not occur to me!? "Excellent idea Lily, can we start tonight do you think?" she asked quickly, standing up.
"We can start working on the arrays tonight yes though we'll want to make certain we have them all in proper order before we start inscribing them. We should also think about the design of the pensieve as well…"
The next morning, Harry and Aayla were both woken up by Master Dooku and Quinlan, who had the two of them move out into the training area. "We will start our day with your practicing your Force Stealth training, both of you. Until you can sneak up on Master Fay, myself and Quinlan, we will not be satisfied. Quinlan and I have discussed it, and he is going to be making a preliminary report this evening on what occurred on Tatooine. He and I have written most of it already, and it should give the Council enough information to satisfy them for a time, as we work on getting the repatriation process started."
Quinlan nodded from where he stood beside the older man, looking at his padawan. "I will be transporting most of what we gleaned from Jabba's computers today as well as the repatriation process and Aurra Sing's death, but won't go into detail on why we broke cover. Or about…"
"About my uncle's involvement," Aayla replied with a nod. "Don't worry master, any familial feeling I still had to him is long gone now given what his ID'ing me almost meant."
"I realize that, I was simply trying to be delicate is all. Since it obviously hasn't worked I'll revert to type." Quinlan quipped, eliciting a giggle from his padawan and a snort from Harry.
"Nonetheless you won't be able to stay here for more than a bare day, but that doesn't mean you get out of training your lightsaber skills padawans. For today we will be splitting up your training like this: Mornings for stealth as Master Dooku said, then late morning and early afternoon lightsaber practice, Djem So for you Harry while Aayla practices her Jar'kai with me. Will switch to pure lightsaber dueling after two hours of practice."
"Then after lunch, you'll switch to Shienand Aayla will switch to Force training with me. How much of the techniques you developed since the two of you were separated does Aayla know already?" Quinlan asked bluntly.
Aayla and Harry exchanged a look before turning back to the two masters. "All of them." Aayla said with a shrug. "I mean he shared most of his memories with me over the past few days about how he'd come up with them. I can't do many of them, at least I don't think I can I haven't been able to experiment with them yet, but I've added a few to my skill set."
"Then this will be a perfect time to experiment. The evenings will be devoted to again for stealth. In the future if you return here we may replace the midmorning or late morning exercises with full on sparring Harry." Dooku said.
"So you can see more of what I can do Master Dooku?" Harry asked. He had come to trust the older man, and felt that he should be doing more than he was in teaching Dooku the Force techniques that Harry and Lily had come up with, as well as more of what Lily had taught him from their old world.
But Lily was adamant that Dooku come up with them on his own, and that Harry always keep some techniques a secret. Transfiguration and conjuration after all were easy enough to talk about, but only a few of the clan members and surprisingly Master Yoda had been able to do even small stuff completely unlike the large-scale things Harry could do in that area. And the cutting spells and other things that Harry had come up with from reverse engineering sort of the magic spells of Earth were things that Lily wanted to keep under wraps.
"Somewhat, but I want you to begin to get used to the idea of using your abilities in tandem with your lightsaber skills. Force Precognition is all about being able to both perceive your enemies' abilities as well as how best to utilize your own to take advantage of their weaknesses. If you do not get used to using all of your abilities, your Force Precognition will suffer and you open yourself up to unpleasant surprises."
