The beach [late afternoon]

[sith_happened]

His son from a different universe was in town. And Anakin was a hyper-competitive dumbass. Naturally, Anakin had decided that there should be a lightsaber spar.

You know. Just to see how out of shape he'd gotten.

So Anakin and Luke had made their way down to the beach, lightsabers in hand, to have nice, completely healthy combat with weapons that could kill them.

Ah, Skywalkers.

Where we fight!

[sith_happened]

For Luke and Anakin.

"Is this absolutely necessary?" Luke asked, then flashed Anakin a smile. "We all know how this ended the last time."

Re: Where we fight!

"That's because I let you win," Anakin told him haughtily, shrugging his robe off to puddle in the sand and taking his lightsaber from his belt.

"Did you," Luke replied, arching up an eyebrow. "I don't remember you seeming all that certain of the outcome at the time."

His robe landed in the sand as well, without the dramatic flair Anakin had used on his own, and stepped closer, hand resting on the hilt of his weapon. "So we'll see how this goes. Ben said that you've been teaching him."

Anakin ignited his lightsaber and held it at the forty-five degree angle of the starting hold of his favorite combat style. "He's coming along," he said, then slashed out at Luke's hand.

He figured that Luke would be able to get his weapon lit in time.

He could, and green blade met the blue in an all-too-familiar clashing sound. "I'm glad to hear it," he said, pushing back against the strike with a good portion of his strength. Even in a sparring session, he had a feeling that Anakin wouldn't be holding much, if anything, back.

Not when Anakin wanted so badly to win, no. Anakin grunted at the impact, then lashed out with his elbow, using his height to aim for Luke's head.

Not nice, Anakin.

Luke gave him a "what the hell" look as he ducked out of the way, slashing his blade toward Anakin's stomach.

Re: Where we fight!

Anakin flipped easily out of the way, landing behind Luke, and tried to hit Luke in the kidney with his lightsaber.

Yeah, play time was apparently over. Anakin was getting out his frustrations with Luke's Order in a super healthy, really different way.

Luke frowned as he flattened to the ground to avoid being skewered, rolled onto his back and caught the blow that Anakin leveled at him from that position.

He kicked out--hard--with his boots, aiming for Anakin's ribs.

That was going to leave a bruise. All the air in Anakin's lungs left with a whoof and he took a few steps back to recover.

Breathing was good. He liked breathing.

Where we gawk!

[sith_happened]

Because there are a few people who might want to watch this.

Ben had found himself a rock to perch on. "Go Dad!" he cheered.

Well, of course Tahiri wasn't going to miss this, and even if she'd had a very weird day so far she made it down to the beach a little while after the fight had started. "How did I know this was going to happen?"

Re: Where we gawk!

[momslilassassin]

"Because Granddad doesn't use his words?" Ben said wryly. "I think he's been waiting to do this ever since Jaina arrived. He has Views about our galaxy."

Re: Where we gawk!

[weetuskenraider]

"Boy, does he ever. I've gotten that hint pretty clearly from my talks with him," Tahiri muttered. "So, hi. How many awkward conversations have you had?"

Re: Where we gawk!

[momslilassassin]

"Depends if we count punching Jacen a conversation or not," Ben muttered back.

Re: Where we gawk!

[weetuskenraider]

"Did you really?" Tahiri asked, wishing she'd thought of that. Sort of. "Um. Your dad talked to me."

Re: Where we gawk!

[momslilassassin]

"About what?" Ben asked, heart pounding hard in his chest.

Re: Where we gawk!

[weetuskenraider]

"He never yelled at me or anything, but he got me to promise I'm not going to hurt you," Tahiri said quietly.

Re: Where we gawk!

[momslilassassin]

"Of course you won't," Ben said firmly.

On his way back to the hotel from work, Kyle found himself drawn towards the beach.

He ended up arriving just as the lightsabers were being ignited. He couldn't help but grin. Anakin was going to get whupped.

Well, Ender had already thrown his lot in with the Skywalker family, he... might as well sit down.

Luckily, he wasn't much plagued by any nightmares about Skywalker-Wiggin family dinners.

Where we have OOC!

[sith_happened]

Because it's traditional.
