Ethics [Thursday, October 24, 1st period]

[sith_happened]

Today the class was meeting in the Danger Room.

It was not surprising that there wasn't a scrap of red velvet to be seen anywhere. It always wasn't a coincidence that today's class could get most of the students fake killed in nasty ways.

"Welcome to your midterm," Anakin said, pacing across the flight deck of a ship. Behind him, thousands of pricks of lights showed that a space battle had been paused for him to talk. "Today, you will get to be Jedi."

His eyes went flat. "Or try, anyway. Your mission," he said, striding over to a three-dimensional schematic of the ship, "is to rescue the Chancellor of the Republic, who has been kidnapped by a General Grievous, the leader of a Separatist movement. There's also another fearsome warrior aboard, a Lord of the Sith..." he glanced at Qui-Gon, "whose name doesn't matter."

And whose face would be mysteriously blurry when Qui-Gon fought against him. Anakin wasn't about to screw up timelines for a class assignment.

"Regardless. You will be paired up and rescue the Chancellor. Alive, please. Your mission is to fight past the droids, Grievous and the Sith Lord, get back on a different ship and the hell off of this one as quickly as possible."

He waved his hand towards the control panel. The students would now find themselves in brown robes and holding unlit lightsaber hilts. They would work like the real things, but only in the Danger Room.

Their reflexes, regrettably, were what they had come in with.

"Try not to die," Anakin said, then listed off the pairings:

River Tam - Irulan Corrino
Gavin Darklighter - Prue Halliwell
Edward Elric - Aravis Tarkheena
John Sheppard - Victor Von Doom
Gwynn Hood - Henry Jekyll
Qui-Gon Jinn - Jaina Solo
Rodney McKay - Sokka
Sora - Haruhi
Kabuto - Ino



Volcano - Damien Rice

Sokka stared at his lightsaber with wide eyes, making happy sort of burbly noises. This was EVEN BETTER THAN A MACHINE GUN!!!

While he was waiting for his roomie partner, he found a clear spot, ignited it, and waved it around, trying to mimic some of the moves he had seen Luke and Jaina do. And then just sort of waved it around, enjoying the hum.

And then carved his name into the floor, just because.

This was just like home. Jaina decided they could handle this just fine.

Ed looked around for Aravis.

Who he THOUGHT was the girl that made sure to stop to mock last week. Just his luck.

River looked around for Irulan, hoping she had survived the weekend.

Fight past the battle droids!

[sith_happened]

The simulation roars back into life as you find yourself in midleap above a starfighter that has clearly seen better days.

And here come the battle droids. They're pretty stupid, but they make up for it by bringing a lot of them along.

And they're all aiming their weapons at you. This could be bad.

"Oh wow." Prue said. "Those things are creepy."

Cloak on and the hood pulled up, Victor turned on his lightsaber -- green, of course -- and... let John attack the droids first. Victor wanted to see the capabilities of the droids first.

Rodney hefted his lightsaber up into something vaguely resembling a fighting pose and ignited it. He gulped at the approaching battle droids.

Race to the elevator!

[sith_happened]

You thought the battle droids were pretty easy (and they were), but that was because the destroyers were in the hallway. And they're blocking your path to the elevator...

Re: Race to the elevator!

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

After the stupid droids, now they were running towards the elevator and...having to abruptly stop.

"I shouldn't have had such a big breakfast," Gavin said, taking a moment to catch his breath.

Re: Race to the elevator!

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

John ran for the elevator only to skid to a stop in front of more freaking droid things. "Victor, I think they want their friend back."

Save the <s>Emperor</s> Chancellor

[sith_happened]

Aww, he looks so scared. And he says something about a Sith Lord behind you? That's probably not good....

Re: Save the <s>Emperor</s> Chancellor

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

The elevator opened and there weren't any droids around.

"So far, so good," Gavin said quietly.

Re: Save the <s>Emperor</s> Chancellor

[honoraryphd.livejournal.com]

The elevator opened and Victor stepped out, satisfied that there didn't seem to be any battle droids here. "Watch out for danger," he ordered.

Run awaaaaaaay!

[sith_happened]

Back to the elevator! Don't get captured: someone's got to have noticed their prisoner's gone by now...

Another happy landing!

[sith_happened]

Anakin's got some questions for you after your mission.

Talk to Anakin!

[sith_happened]

After class, if you'd like.

OOC

[sith_happened]

Ahh, Episode III. Without the dialog, you are awesome.
