THE NEW CHAPTER IS FINALLY HERE. Thank you all for the support, it really does feel nice when people comment and you see people reading your work.

Having said that, enjoy...

Previously:

"You won't start practising with the lightsaber until you can easily manipulate these stones and anything else. Don't worry if you don;t get the hang of it anytime soon. This isn't easy and it'll be harder for you as you're older than the usual trainees," he said and then turned around to leave (Anakin and Ahsoka have already left) but then heard Percy call out.

"Like this Obi-Won?"

Said person turned around and saw Percy juggling the pebbles without them actually touching his hand.

"Close your mouth Obi-Won. I'm just getting started."

Now:

It's been a week since Percy's lessons began and he's as natural in controlling the force as sword fighting. The exercises ranged from playing catch with different objects (using the force of course) to having full out force wrestling (them usually getting thoroughly told off later for destruction of... basically everything)

Now, Percy's in the Garden of Eden (the garden Jedi sanctuary) in the middle one of their intense wrestling matches. Obi-Won standing on one side, Percy on the other. In a semicircle around them, stood a youngling class of ten, waiting in anticipation for the duel to begin. One of the kids shouts:

"THREE"

"TWO"

"ONE"

"BEGIIIIIN"

Immediately, both the contestants raise both their arms and a strong wind gathers, pushing against each other. The force from both is redirected and the younglings all leap for cover. One under the bench, one behind a bush and another up in a tree. All safe and great spots for spectating at a safe distance. The wind, missing all the kids, destroys the nearest flower patch but the two had already launched a new attack on each other.

This lasted for 15 minutes until Obi-Won flew back and hit the short wall behind him. Raising his hand in defeat, he slowly dragged himself up and went forward to congratulate the winner. (I am terrible at writing action/fighting scenes so I apologise)

Percy POV:

"You're getting better and better every time. It's hard to believe that you only just started learning the force a week ago!" Obi-Won exclaimed.

"Thanks," Percy said awkwardly, "I guess it's easier for me since I am half god."

"Well I suppose so," Obi-Won said. "Now that you've mastered force control, we can move onto lightsabers." As he said that, he took out a familiar lightsaber out of his TARDIS infected pockets and handed it to Percy who took it and immediately ignited it.

"I have talked to Master Yoda about the colouring of your lightsaber. He said..."

Flashback:

"Hmmm. A very difficult question indeed that is. The answer I may know. The young one, to the darkness, been exposed he has. Sensitive to it slightly, he may be. Indeed, he is. The darkness, the blood red shows.

But power and goodwill, the gold represents. Be careful he must be, when fighting the Sith. His loyalty to his friends and family against him, they may use."

Flashforward:

"So out of all existing Jedi, you're the only one with a two coloured lightsaber," finished explaining Obi-Won.

"Ok," Percy responded tapping his fingers on his leg, his ADHD playing up. "Will you be teaching that style that I saw the Jedi teaching the kids?"

"No, since you've already learnt how to fight with your sword from an early age, you will find it impossible to master it. This style is taught only to Jedi/Sith (Jedi who turn to the darkness - they have cookies ^.^) and after you've mastered it, you can't learn any other style and it works the other way round as well. "

"Oh," is all Percy says looking downcast at the ground but then quickly, his expression changed to hope. "Could I still try? Or at least see it."

Obi-Won sighs but then takes his lightsaber off his belt and ignites it. He then starts moving slowly and fluidly but highly accurately through all the positions. His eyes were closed and you could see he was concentrating on maintaining his control and connection to the force. It was beautiful to watch and Percy found himself mesmerised in these simple but elegant movements. His body unconsciously moved - his arm reached to unhook the lightsaber from his belt and then his whole body moved to copy these positions.

After the first few positions, he just focused on the force and it was as if it was moving him into the correct positions. Overall, the feeling was exhilarating and he felt more at peace than he had ever felt. After a couple of minutes, he felt the force slowing his body down until he stopped. Slowly he opened his eyes, blinking a couple of times to get used to the sunlight. He turned around to face Obi-Won who was standing shocked, staring at the demigod before him.

"You shouldn't be able to do that, " he whispered until he cleared his throat and wiped the shocked look on his face. "Let's go see Master Yoda, he should be able to explain this," he said clearly and then swiftly turned around in the direction of the exit.

All might be revealed in the next chapter...

May the force be with you.
