Alethea smiled happily, something not often seen from her, when he complemented her on her blended forms. He even went so far as to say that he thought that if she found herself facing a Sith or Dark Jedi, they would find themselves in trouble. "Thank you. That's kind of you to say." she responded with a gentle voice, taking a drink of her water. She knew he had meant what he'd said. Like her, he didn't seem the type to dish out undeserved compliments. It made her happy to hear someone compliment her on this, as she had worked very hard to get to this point. It had also been nice to face an opponent who held his own for a while. It gave her more of a chance to test different things, as well as giving her a better work out.<br/><br/>She giggled just a little when he said he thought that would make a good team and he would hate to be the one fighting them when they were united. "I think we will make an excellent team indeed." she agreed. She, of course, didn't want to let any of this go to her head, as she knew that beating another padawan, no matter how strong, wasn't a true test of how one would fair against a skilled Sith lord. She was skilled in many ways, sure. She had always been one of the better students at the academy, but even so, she knew that she still had a long way to go. There were still scores of enemies out there who were on an entirely different level than anything she'd ever seen. She knew that she had to keep this in mind. That didn't mean that she couldn't have confidence in her abilities, though. Nor did it mean that she couldn't trust in him and in their ability to work together. Those things were important as well, if she wished to do her best.<br/><br/>She had let the guard around her mind down while they spoke, so when his mind was assaulted by the vision, so, too, was hers. She winced, pressing her free palm against her head as the images flashed through her mind. What... What was this? Was this what was to come? A vision of the future? It must be. After all, this was his gift. Given that they looked no different in that vision then they did now, she wondered... Was that going to happen soon? If so... what would be the outcome? Would they survive? She would apparently take a pretty nasty blow... Would she survive?<br/><br/>She frowned a little and placed a hand on his shoulder, ignoring her thoughts and focusing on him. "Are you okay?" she asked, concern in her voice. "You should sit down and rest." she gestured to the seats nearby, leading him over to them and taking a seat. She was quiet for a moment, appearing to be contemplating something, before she spoke up. "Do you think... That's really going to happen?" she asked, looking up at him, her blue eyes searching his, as if looking for answers, while she held her mind back to avoid reading his mind without thinking. Sometimes... Perhaps it would be better to ask than to simply find the answer for herself. After all, how were they to develop any form of bond if they didn't truly communicate?
