Darth Simetra kept the weapon close, smiling as she chanted softly, sibilance and rasps alternating every now and then.  The power of the Force flushed through the staff, and just as suddenly as she'd caught the weapon she released it, stalking slowly towards the exit way back towards the cargo bay where Xollen worked.  She kept her eye on the young creature Damiana, stalking in a clearly defensive manner, her own weapon held close to her body, rigidly upright.  The crystal glittered malevolently as she watched the student, leaving her to figure out exactly what she'd done to the staff....<br/><br/>....if she could.<br/><br/>She darted through the doorway quite suddenly, moving from steady, measure paces into a blur of Force-enhanced speed.  she was gone into the other room before Damiana could react completely, thus escaping the potentially vengeful - and entirely insane - droid as well as giving herself more room to work with.
