The New Jedi Twins Chronicles:: The Big Training Mistake


Tyna enters the training room to find her Jedi Master patiently waiting for his two young padawans to show up so they could begin the day's training. Yes, two padawans... the twins Krystyna and Vincent. At sixteen years of age they were beginning to move on to more important steps in training.

Normally a Jedi Master would not be allowed to take on two padawan learners at the same time, However; special circumstances surrounding the death of the twins' parents caused the Jedi council to be on the fence about splitting up the only family the two younglings had. More importantly Jedi Master Diamond insisted that he could deal with the two at the same time and refused to give either of the children up.

With a smile on her face and the sparkle of mischievousness that is ever present in the teenager's blue eyes Tyna gives a slight bow and greets her Jedi Master who has become a second father to her. "Hello, Jedi Master."

The Master smiles back at the spunky girl. "Greetings, young padawan." Tyna grins back at her dear Master and waits patiently for her twin brother to arrive. Timing has been a very hard skill for Tyna to learn and she has learned quite painfully at times that it is best to just arrive earlier than is expected of her than to wait too late and risk her Master's displeasure.

Jedi Master Diamond nods as his other apprentice enters the room in a timely manner. Vincent bows gracefully after taking his place by his sister's side, "Greetings Jedi Master Diamond." Of the two padawans Vincent has always been the more predictable of the two. His dependability has always balanced out Tyna's spiritedness and Vincent is always the voice of reason between the two twins.

Tyna grins widely as her brother joins her side and forgetting that she is supposed to remain silent at this time she says brightly, "Hi, Vincent."

Shooting a quick look at the impetuous girl the Jedi Master turns his attention back to Vincent, "Greetings, young padawan." Addressing them both now he asks, "Shall we begin with some training then?"

"Yes, Master," the twins both reply in unison.

Master Diamond nods slightly, "Then let us practice your use of the Force." He then punches a few buttons and opens the formal area of the Practice Room.

Vincent walks in first followed closely by his Master who begins immediately, "Vincent, let us see how you've improved your skills. Demonstrate for me your telekinetic skills." Master Diamond watches as Tyna dutifully takes her seat on the floor and waits her turn.

"Yes, Master." Vincent concentrates and lifts his Master's light saber from the belt around his waist.

Tyna giggles wishing she had thought of that. "Ooooh good one, brother!" she claps in delight.

"Vincent.." the Master says firmly.

"Yes Master?" he responds with a small grin at his sister.

Jedi Master Diamond clears his throat and opens his hand, expectantly. Vincent releases the weapon and floats it back quietly to waiting hands where it is once again returned to its sheath. "Try another object, Vincent. One that perhaps you're permitted to move."

Vincent next pulls a wrench from the shelf on the other side the room to his hand. Tyna smirks, "I like the first one myself though."

"Good." the Jedi Master nods his approval of the boy. "Now return it to the shelf, young one." Master Diamond looks over at Tyna cautiously. Vincent returns it to its proper place.

She catches the look and tries to calm herself on her own. "Tyna, it is your turn. Show your Master how you've improved your skills of the Force."

Nodding Tyna rises to her feet while her brother takes a seat on the floor now. "Yes, Master."

As Vincent moves back to the door and seats himself Master Diamond praises his work, "Good job, Vincent."

"Thank you, Master." Vincent murmurs with a smile.

Tyna sees her bag of pretzels across the room on the table and raises her
hand and not concentrating very well because she is in a silly mood starts to
float them towards her but drops them and sends them scattering across the
floor. "Eeek!" she exclaims as she quickly runs to pick them up without thinking to use the Force.

The Master sighs as he watches Tyna get them all up off the floor and sets the bag back on the table a little irritated with herself. Why the young girl had the bag of pretzels in the training room in the first place was beyond him. "Perhaps you need to meditate more, young Tyna."

She frowns, "Yes, Master.

Vincent frowns too knowing how his sister has trouble in her meditaions.

Master Diamond admonishes her, "You must focus on your task at hand and not the childish thoughts of games and pranks."

Tyna nods a little and turns red, "May I try again, Master?"

Pleased to see his padawan want to correct her mistake he answers, "Very well, you may."

Tyna nods and closes her eyes to center herself. "Thank you, Master" Vincent watches on from his seat in the floor quietly. Concentrating on the task at hand now she retrieves her cloak from across the room successfully.

The Jedi Master nods, "Good job, Tyna; however I do feel you need more time to meditate."

Trying not to whine she answers, "Master, I'm okay I was just not payin' attention."

"Then you need to meditate to focus your attention, my young padawan." he answers and then sighs a bit. "Let us continue to the Lightsaber Training."

Now rising from the floor to join his sister Vincent answers, "Yes, Master."

Tyna grins because she loves playing with the lightsabers "Yes, Master." She uses the force to retrieve hers from across the room where it had fallen out of her cloak. Vincent floats his up off his belt and into his hand.

Master Diamond directs, "Vincent, prepare the blinders and the drones."

Grinning he heads across the room. "Yes, Master." Vincent floats the blinders over and sets the commands for the drones effortlessly.

Groaning Tyna turns to her teacher. "But Masterrrrrr... those are for younglingsss! We're far too old for
thattt now!"

Jedi Master Diamond nods and then sits down to watch, "Drones are just as effective for Jedis as they are for younglings." Vincent finishes the preparations. The master instructs Vincent, "You may increase the difficulty, but use the drones and blinders as you have been."

Tyna tries not to whine like a youngling so she grits her teeth instead. "Masterrr, we are old enough to practice on each otherrrr! We areeee sixteen now, ya know!"

Meanwhile Vincent puts on his helmet, flips down the blindshield, and steps into the training circle and uses his mind to click the training switch to on. As he feels the center circle under his boot vincent twirls the blade to block the weapon's fire with ease.

Jedi Master Diamond raises an eyebrow at Tyna, "When you've shown me proper maturity and respect, young padawan, that is when I shall consider allowing you to fight each other."

Vincent feeling with both his mind and senses locates and 'destroys' the first droid. Grinning broadly at his accomplishment he clicks the switch back to off so sis can take a turn. Tyna sighs and picks up the other blinder and puts it on "Yes Masterrrr."

Finished now, Vincent walks back out the center circle and removes the blinder where Master Diamond pats him heartily on the shoulder. "Good job, Vincent."

Irritated at not getting her own way still Tyna steps into the circle and uses her mind to turn the drone on now and tries her best to concentrate on the task at hand though she is letting frustration cloud her judgement and nearly misses getting hit by a shot of the drone.

Vincent smiles and bows a little, "Thank you, Master Diamond."

His Master smiles back as he suddenly senses Yoda is summoning him. He floats up to his feet in
a single motion, and then looks at you both. "Continue practicing, young padawans. I shall return shortly." He then gives a slight bow and leaves the room quietly.

The twins answer together, "Yes, Master Diamond." and vincent turns to watch sis train and waits for his next turn at the droid. Vincent is contented to train with the machine understanding that their Master will allow them to move on when he feels the twin padawans are ready.


Exasperated at feeling like she is being treated like a youngling and being held back from bigger and better things Tyna pulls off the blinder and lets the drone crash to the floor as she clicks it off with her mind. Letting her frustration show fully now that she senses that Master is out of earshot she pleads with her twin, "Come onnnn, Vincentttt, don't ya think he's holdin us backkkk?!"

Vincent looks at his sister and shrugs, "Maybe, sis, but it is the way."

Jedi Master Diamond goes to Old Wise Yoda and speaks with him about the progress of his young padawans. He confidently tells Master Yoda that his padawans are young, but are progressing well.


Frowning Tyna persists, "Comeee onnnn, Vinnyyyy, lets fight together!"

Vincent looks nervously at the door Master just exited. "I don't know, Tyna." He sighs knowing how his sister has a way talking him into doing things that he shouldn't. "Master will be angry with us when he finds out."

"Awww come onn He'll never knowww, we'll just listen for him to come back." she continues to coax. Vincent begins to waver a little wanting to fight but unsure of disobeying their orders. Tyna pleads with her brother, "Come onnnn pleaseeeee?"

Vincent finally gives in. "Just a little okay? Then right back to the droid before we get in trouble."

His sister gives him a huge grin. "Okayyyyyyy!" and switches her blue lightsaber back on with a huge smile on her face. Shaking his head a little Vincent joins Tyna into the center without the blinder on now and switches on his purple saber and gets in defense stance. Tyna grins and strikes a blow which Vincent blocks carefully. She goes easy on her brother not wanting to harm him.


Master Diamond finishes his conversation with Master Yoda and heads back to the training room. His feet flow as light as the air across the floor, and back down the hallway towards where his young charges are both still practicing. As Diamond draws closer he realizes that the sound he is hearing is not that of the practice against the drone, but that of the lightsabers clashing against each other.

He sighs inwardly as he silently watches you both fighting each other, and then suddenly with a flick of his wrist turns the sabers off simultaneously and brings them to his hand.

Tyna looks up startled "Ummm hi Master." Vincent gulps and lowers his head quietly.

Gazing at the two padawans sternly Master Diamond asks quietly, "Would one of you care to explain this disobedience?" He can already tell as he watches their reactions who instigated this and it really comes as no surprise to him. He's known early on that Tyna has a way with talking her brother into things that they had been specifically forbade them to do. Although Vincent has a good head on his shoulders and will usually obey any order given him he still gives into his sister every time.

Vincent's eyes tear up and he shakes his head softly while Tyna just barely refrains from rolling her eyes at the Jedi Master. "We just wanted to practice a little and then we were gonna go back to the stupid drones again!"

Master Diamond sighs softly at the two teens. Vincent being a sensitive soul is always the first to genuinely apologize, "I'm sorry, Master."

Sighing again he speaks softly yet firmly. "I am a bit disappointed in you both. I thought that I had taught
you patience and obedience."

Tyna decides to try to apologize too, but fails in her sincerity, "Yeah I'm sorry too, Master." Vincent shrinks back further all too aware of Master's displeasure and disappointment radiating through the force.

The Master keeps the sabers to himself for now and then motions for both teens to follow, "I think it best we conclude our training for the day. You both are to be punished." Vincent follows quietly and keeps his eyes to the floor. Tyna gulps now and follows Master and her brother. Jedi Master Diamond walks silently down the hallway to their quarters. Once inside he softly says, "You both meditate while I decide on your punishment. I suggest you focus your energies on your behavior for the last few minutes and how to correct it." He then disappears into his private meditation chamber for a few minutes.

"Yes, Master." Vincent kneels down into a meditation position and reflects on his behavior quietly. He thinks to himself about why he always gives into his sister. He has always been eager to please everyone, but that includes his headstrong twin who always insists on doing things her own way.

Tyna bites her lip and looks over at Vincent and whispers "I'm sorry brother for getting you in trouble." Seeing that Vince is already doing as they were told Tyna decides she had best sit down and meditate though that is her weakest point since her mind would rather do other things. She kneels down and concentrates the best she can and tries to quiet her mind.

After what seems like forever to Tyna, but not long enough for Vincent; their Master walks out with what would be the equivalent to a light strap and says quietly, "Young padawans, come here please."

Vincent gasps softly seeing it from the corner of his eye and feels his bottom cheeks clench nervously. Tyna has her eyes closed, but does sense Master's presence and her eyes flutter open. Vincent rises quietly and goes to Master. Tyna looks up with a slight groan as she catches sight of the strap and feels her stomach drop but rises slowly to her feet and follows her brother.

Master Diamond speaks, "Vincent, Tyna, as I have said, I am disappointed in you both. You directly disobeyed me. I had just concluded telling Master Yoda himself about your progress even."

That part is a crushing blow to the twins knowing that Yoda may learn of their disobedience. Vincent blushes brightly to the tips of his ears. "I am so sorry. Master, please forgive me."

Tyna bites at her lip starting to feel a little more sincere now "I'm sorry, Master. I won't do it again 'til we have Your permission."

Master Diamond replies, "Forgiveness is something you'll get after your punishment, padawans. Now disrobe and kneel with your bottoms raised."

Vincent pulls off his apprentice robes and kneels raising his bottom up tearfully. Tyna turns red hating this part the most but takes off her tunic and her pants and places them to the side and kneels next to her brother and raises her bottom up nervously. "Please Master don't punish Vincent. I talked him into ittttt."

Master watches quietly and sighs some as he sees you both disrobe, and kneel appropriately. "I had thought that your disobedience was a thing of the past. I had also thought that you were both ready to truly feel the Force within you." He raises the strap and begins whipping you both...THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK!
THWAAACK! THWAAACK!

"'Vincent's mistakes are his own. And so are his choices, Tyna." THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK!

Vincent yelps softly while Tyna trembles hearing the strap come down and wills herself to stay in position. "Yesss, Masterrrr." Vincent raises my bottom back up praying for the forgiveness that he seeks.

Master Diamond raises the strap once more.. THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! "In addition, you'll both spend the rest of the evening in meditation."

Vincent howls out through clenched teeth, "Yeowwwwwww owwwwww yessssss Masterrr!" Tyna forgets herself and groans at that last thing which is more painful to her than any strapping. "Yeooooowww!" Though this was really hurting.

The Jedi Master quickly raises the strap once more and brings it down across your bottoms quite hard. THWAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK!

Vincent raises his bottom to meet the strap and yelps as it cracks down hard. "Yeowwww! Owwwwwwwwwwie!" he cries out and then sobs softly. Tyna shakes a little in place "Oowwwwwww, Masterrrrrrr!" she begins to cry a little now.

Master Diamond gives you both one last set with the light strap across your bare backsides. THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! THWAAACK! He then stops and says calmly, "Your Master forgives you both." He looks down and begins to rub your backs gently.

Vincent sobs softly as he yelps with pain "Yeowwwwwww owwwwwwwwwwieee!" Tyna cries harder now feeling bad for her disobedience at last. Her brother trembles softly beside her feeling Masters gentle touch and starts to calm as Master gives the forgiveness he has been seeking. Diamond nods silently bringing both of his padawans up from their kneeling positions and holds you in his arms, giving you the love that only a Jedi Master can give.

Happily Vince hugs tightly and wipes away tears with the back of my hand while Tyna smiles and wipes at her tears and hugs her Master tightly as well, "I'm sorry, Master."

Their Master hugs back, "I know, dear padawan, you have my forgiveness. Its all over now."

Tyna nods. "Thanks, Master" Vincent sniffs softly and goes over to his meditation corner where he kneels and hisses softly as his bottom connects to his legs. He dutifully holds his position and closes his eyes and meditates despite the burning in his red backside.

Thinking quietly to herself for a second, Tyna looks up and chews on her lip a minute before she speaks. "Do we really have to spend allll night meditating, Master?"

He just looks deep in her eyes and answers, "Spend the time wisely, young Tyna. Focus yourself...Center yourself, so that tomorrow's training will be effective."

Krystyna looks down. "Yes Master." She hugs her Master and goes to her meditation corner and kneels gingerly and tries her best to quiet herself for a long evening.
