Knights of the old Republic III
Episode VII
The Rise of the New Sith

Darth Abel’s capital ship explodes in the Climatic battle against
his older brother Cain, and is presumed to be dead, the new-
ly proclaimed lord of the sith Darth Cain, and his personal
Apprentice Lord Pyre seek to destroy the last of the
jedi.

In another part of the galaxy, Darth Hervocius is desperately searching for
his old friend, Isabelle dathrek. Zilfer stays in hiding, avoiding the forever-watchful eye of the new sith lord. Bargon Sishi’s contract ended with Abel’s death, and now he wanders the galaxy looking for work.

[Lord Abel]

Darth Cain enters the Nklon sith base, and finds Darth Pyre sitting over the dead body of Darth Dalen in the gloomy chamber.

Darth Cain: “So you ended that fools life for me Pyre?”
Darth Pyre: “Yes milord, it was fun to say the least.”
Darth Cain: “I imagine, now with both my brothers and there lackeys gone, there will be no more threat great enough of my concern.”
Darth Pyre: “Yes milord, but where did Darth Hervocuis go? He was supposedly killed by zabark, but even he couldn’t stop him, He disobeyed your direct orders.”
Darth Cain: “I know, he will be dealt with, but first, I want you to go to Fulecia and destroy the remaining jedi.
Darth Pyre: “yes milord, it will be done.”

Darth Pyre walks to the hanger, and when he is about leave on his ship, the galaxy jumper, he sees another ship take off right before him. Curious, as to whom that was, he then boards his ship and flies to Fulecia, only to find the jedi base in ruins.

Darth Pyre exits the ship, and walks into the dense color full jungle of Fulecia, wondering how the sith army could have destroyed the base so quickly, he walks over to the collapsed entrance, and finds zilfer lying on the ground scorched and bloody.

Darth Pyre: “You…you are Zilfer.”
Zilfer: “Leave…me…to….become one…..with the….force.”
Darth Pyre: “Fool do you know who I am; I am Lord Cain’s apprentice, none shall live that oppose him.”

Darth Pyre raises his red lightsaber, and cuts Zilfers head off, but instead of the head rolling away from the body, Zilfer fades away, and disappears.

Zilfer: “Ha ha ha! You fell for my clone trap Darth Pyre.”

Darth Pyre Spins around to face the real zilfer with a green lightsaber ignited.

Zilfer: “You may be Cain’s apprentice, but you still aren’t strong enough to defeat me.”

With that, Zilfer jumps in the air, and does a back flip and lands behind Darth Pyre and strikes. Darth Pyre easily blocks the blow, and he turns around and force pushes Zilfer into a collapsed wall of the base. Zilfer collapses, and slumps down onto the ground. Darth Pyre walks toward him and says

Darth Pyre: “It is a shame that I have to kill you; you would make a great sith.”
Zilfer: “No, I will never join you; I would rather become one with the force.”

Darth Pyre raises his lightsaber and strikes at his neck, and severs his head. Darth Pyre walks away laughing at how pitiful easy the battle was, and wonders if Zilfer was holding back.

[Lord Abel]

He boards the Galaxy Jumper, takes off toward Nklon, where Cain sits meditating about his last great battle, wondering if Abel survived or not.

Cain sits up from meditating, and walks toward the hanger, to await the approach of his apprentice. As almost as if he timed it, the Galaxy Jumper flies into the hanger, and lands right in front of Cain. Darth Pyre walks off, and walks toward his Master

Darth Cain: “So are they all dead?”
Darth Pyre: “Yes, the base was already reduced to ruble by the time I got there. And one more thing, I found Zilfer their alive, we fought, but in the end as you can see, I one.”
Darth Cain: “Funny, I didn’t feel him through the force, if he died.”
Darth Pyre: “Believe me, he is dead.”

Darth Cain and Darth Pyre walk toward the inner halls of the base discussing the whereabouts of the last jedi.

In another part of the galaxy, a mysterious cloaked figure walks into a cantina, and orders a drink. The figure then sits down at a table all by himself in the corner. Two bounty hunters approach him.

Bounty hunter one: “Mind if we join you?”
??: “If you must.”

The bounty hunters sit down across from the figure, and start asking him questions.

Bounty hunter 1: “So what have you heard of the war lately?
??: “I hear lots of things, and most of them involve the sith winning.
Bounty hunter 2: “Yeah I heard that the Mandalorians got torn apart by the sith, and that there commander went into hiding after the huge bounty was put on his head.”

At those words, the mysterious cloaked figure stands up and grabs the second bounty hunter by the throat, and then starts to choke him, he then puts a cold metal cylinder up against the bounty hunters chest, and then a silvery red beam cuts through the bounty hunter, and with quick swiftness, he cuts off the other bounty hunters head. The people in the cantina freeze shocked at what just happened. Moments later they go back to there drinks, like what just to place happens all the time.

The mysterious figure walks out of the cantina, and into the streets of the city. He is joined by two identical other cloaked figures, and they all get into a parked speeder, and take off through the city as if looking for something, or someone.

[Lord Abel]

Darth Hervocouis exits hyperspace and enters the Onderon system he lands in the Iziz spaceport, and is greeted by two male docking officers.

Male docking officer 1: “Hello sir and thank you for docking in the Iziz space port.”
Male docking officer 2: “Since this is your first time docking here, you must pay a docking fee of 200 credits; this will pay off all other fees, so you won’t have to pay a docking fee for landing here ever again.”
Darth Hervocouis: (using force persuasion) “I do not need to pay the docking fee in fact; you will give me all the credits you have on you, and your space port IDs.”
Male docking officers in unison: “You do not need to pay the docking fee, here are all the credits we have, and our space port IDs.”
Darth Hervocouis: “No, that is not good enough; I will end your pathetic life for crossing my path.”

Before the docking officers even know what Darth Hervocouis just said, he ignites his lightsaber, and cuts off both their heads with one blow, he collects their blasters, and crushes them with the force, then takes their bodies and throws them off the landing pad and onto the concrete ground 30 feet below. He walks off into the torn down city looking for a friend.

Darth Hervocouis walks through the ruins of the city of Iziz, looking for any one that knows his friend Isabelle. He walks up to an old military tower, and walks inside, to see to guards guarding an interior door.

Darth Hervocouis: “Do you know anybody named Isabelle Dathrek?”
Guard 1: “Do you mean Commander Dathrek?”
Darth Hervocouis: “What is here first name?”
Guard 2: “We don’t know, we aren’t supposed to call our superior officer’s by there first name.”
Guard 1: “So what can I do for you? Would you like to see her?”
Darth Hervocouis: “Yes let me see her.”

The guards open the door they are guarding, and take Darth Hervocouis down a hallway, and into an elevator. They press the button for the top floor, the lookout floor, and when the elevator stops, the door opens, and Darth Hervocouis sees a beautiful girl sitting in a chair. He walks forward and stands at the end of her desk.

Darth Hervocouis: “Are you Isabelle Dathrek?”
Commander Dathrek: “If I am why would you want to know, and who are you?”
Darth Hervocouis: “I am Zirak Hervocouis.”
Commander Dathrek: “You…but I thought you died on Malac….”
Darth Hervocouis: “No as you can see I am still alive, please don’t talk about that here; this place is not the most private place to be discussing my past.”
Commander Dathrek: “Well then where can we talk about it?”
Darth Hervocouis: “Come to my ship, I need you to travel with me, I am in a bit of trouble.”
Commander Dathrek: “I can’t leave my post here in this office, the Queen wouldn’t like it, and besides I don…”

Darth Hervocouis points his hands at her, then Isabelle starts to close her eyes, and she falls asleep. The guards that brought Darth Hervocouis up in the elevator didn’t have a chance to do anything, because Darth Hervocouis cut both their heads off and forced them threw the window, and down onto the streets below.

[Lord Abel]

Back on Darth Hervocouis’s ship, The Threshold, Isabelle wakes up to find her self in an energy cell. Moments later, Darth Hervocouis enters the cell bay, on his ship, and walks up to Isabelle.

Isabelle: “Where am I?”
Darth Hervocouis: “You are on my ship, I am taking you prisoner.”
Isabelle: “You can’t I have to get back to my office on Iziz. Let me off now!”
Darth Hervocouis: “It is too late; we are in hyper space traveling to Nar Shadda.”
There we will meet up with an old friend, and then I have to meet my master on the planet Nklon.”
Isabelle: “No…You’re a sith.”
Darth Hervocouis: “Yes and I must meet Lord Cain on the planets surface, after he defeated both of his brothers, he pronounced him self Dark Lord of the sith. And the sith that where still loyal to Darth Abel, where killed, so I had no choice but to join him.”
Isabelle: “I don’t believe that my best friend from my childhood is a sith.”
Darth Hervocouis: “It is true, and there is nothing you can do to change it, now sleep.”

Darth Hervocouis raises his hands, and Isabelle falls a sleep. He walks to his cockpit, and checks how much more time they have until they enter Nar shadda space. “One Hour,” he says to himself, he walks to his room, and enters meditation thinking about the sith and everything that had happened over the past two years.

[Lord Abel]

The Nighthawk exits Hyperspace, and flies toward the planet Kamino. It enters the atmosphere and is immediately rocked by the violent rainstorms that continually drench the buildings rising out of the water. It lands on the open platform, and Bargon looks over to see a peculiar ship on the landing platform next to his he immediately recognizes it, and hurries out of his ship to meet its pilot.

Bargon walks through the white hallways to the landing bay to see if the pilot was still at his ship or not. He walks up to the ship, and sees that the landing platform is down, he walks up into the ship, and sees a man in light green and brown mandelorian armor, with a helmet , and a jetpack on his back working on the hyper drive of his ship.

Bargon: “So is this your home?”
??: “What who is there…oh its you, I thought I saw the last of you in the forests of Alderran?”
Bargon: “Ha! You where wrong, it takes more then a couple of your mandelorian elite squads to kill me.”
??: “Well I won’t make the mistake of letting you live again. So why are you here?”
Bargon: “It is none of your business, but I will tell you that I am on a hunt. The only reason I came to talk to you is because I saw you where docked here, and I wanted to see what you have been doing and if you have heard of any good bounties lately other then the Jedi.”
??: “Yes…but why would I tell you, I don’t want you interfering in my hunts.”
Bargon: “I highly doubt that the great Jaster Merrel would have problems in his hunts, even if someone is interfering. Besides you where a mandelorian commander, you can dispatch almost any competitor with out any problem.”
Jaster: “Yes but you are the only one that is even close to me in skill, and in strength.”
Bargon: “Oh well so are you going to tell me who you are hunting?”
Jaster: “Fine I will tell you, but he isn’t the easiest target in the worl…”

Just then, they hear a large explosion coming from inside the Kamino cloning facility. They both reach for there blaster rifles, and they head into the building, once inside, they walk down a hallway, to see the main cloning center on fire, and a wounded cloner lying on the ground.

Jaster: “What happened?”
Wounded Cloner: “I don’t know…we where all...working…and then…there was an explosion…that I believe came from…the energy reactors.”
Bargon: “Where is the energy reactor room?”
Wounded Cloner: “It is down the hallway…and toward the…left. It is the…first door…on the left…”
Bargon: “Thanks…now time to put you out of your misery.”
Wounded Cloner: “Wait…NOOOOOOO…”
Before the cloner could finish his sentence, Bargon grabbed the cloner by the chest, and then ripped his arm off, and then threw him into the fire, and listened to his dying screams.

Jaster: “You have not changed one bit Bargon.”
Bargon: “I never planned on changing.”

They run down the hall and to the left as the cloner had instructed them, Jaster tried the lock, but it was jammed, so he kicked it open, and they both run in to the smoke filled room. They split up, and take opposite sides of the room in search of the cause of the fire so they can put a stop to it before it catches there ships on fire. Bargon walks toward the left, and runs into a wall; he feels along the wall until the wall stops and opens up into a room that is surprisingly clear of the smoke even though it is adjacent to where the fire is spreading. He walks into the room, and finds a console. As he is powering it up, he hears a loud crash, and then a scream. He goes back to the console and reads the list of commands, he chooses the one that activates the sprinkler, but instead of activating the sprinkler system, it triggers the console to explode knocking Bargon back against the wall.
He stands up and notices a lightsaber lying in front of the closet that is attached to the room. He walks up to it and activates it and a white beam extends out, he gets ready to unignite it, when he hears through the force.

??: “Keep this lightsaber as a remembrance of your old master…”

Bargon unignites it and attacthes it to his belt. He walks toward the door way of the smoke filled room, and sees that the fire had advanced one meter from its position before he went into the room.

[Lord Abel]

Bargon: “Do you see the reactor Jaster?”
Bargon: “Do you see the reactor?”
Bargon: “Jaster where are you?”

He walks back through the smoke filled room, and hears a groan over the crackling of the fire.

Jaster: “Over…here.”
Bargon: “Where is over here?”
Jaster: “By the…fallen pillar.”

Bargon slowly walks toward the pillar, and notices Jaster lying trapped under the fallen pillar.

Bargon: “There you are, I think I like you under there, not interfering with my plans.”
Jaster: “Don’t…joke around…get me…out of here.”
Bargon: “Fine I will if you tell me who you are hunting.”
Jaster: “Fine…but you…must get me…out as soon…as…I tell you.”
Bargon: “Whatever you say.”
Jaster: “I am…hunting the…mandelorian commander…that is…supposedly in hiding.”
Bargon: “Thank you now that you told me that, I think I will leave you here so you won’t interfere with my plans.”
Jaster: “No…you…promised…you can’t leave…me here…I will kill you…if you don’t help me.”
Bargon: “How do you expect to kill me when you are trapped under a pillar, well I have to be going, before the flames trap me here.”

Bargon turns away, and ignores Jasters empty threats and pleas for help, he locks the door behind him, and runs toward his ship, and gets in. He then straps himself into the pilot seat, and accesses his bounty hunter list databank, and enters “Deceased” on Jasters file. He then accesses his bounty list, cancels his current contract, and puts the target on the mandelorian commander: Mithrek Dakari.

Knights of the Old Republic III
Episode VIII
The Return of a Warrior

With Zilfers death, the very few remaining Jedi, go into hiding, or come out to attack the sith. Bargon Sishi continues his hunt for the mysterious Mandelorian Commander: Mithrek Dakari and hopes that the bounty he will get when he captures him will help him settle down, and give him high honor among his people. Darth Hervocouis captures Isabelle, and takes her to Nar Shadda Darth where he continues his search for his old war friend.

Darth Cain contuinues to make make his sith armada grow, and plans to take over the Jedi temple on coruscant and make it a sith temple. Throughout the Galaxy, Jedi have given up there ways to go into exile, on various planets. However, above the planet Endor a young bold apprentice fights for his life.

[Lord Abel]

Sindarin pulls his ship into a U-turn as the sith fighters come around for a strafing run. He Pulls out of the U-turn seconds to soon, and a sith fighter lands a blow onto his energy shield reactor. The energy shield flickers on and off, then shuts down. “Dang!” muttered Sindarin as he struggled to pull the ship out of the sith Fighters firing range. He pulls a half U-turn and attacks the sith fighter while he is upside down, and It explodes in an orange and red fireball. “Wahoo!” shouts Sindarin, but before he can praise himself anymore, A sith fighter fires at his engines, and scores a direct hit. “NOOO!” Sindarin Screams as his ship spirals out of control toward the planet of Endor. He crash lands in the thick foliage of Endor, and climbs out of his crippled Jedi fighter.

“Dang it, I thought I hit that one.” He reaches for his belt to make sure his lightsaber is there, and finds it rested by his side. He grabs the rations from his emergency compartment in the ship, and walks off away from his ship, in search for some life on the forsaken world. He suddenly realizes that his master told him to call through the force whenever he is in trouble and someone will hear him. Through the Force: “I am in trouble….and I need some assistance, do you hear me master? I need help, please help me…” He calls out through the force, and waits a while but hears no answer, he reaches threw the force to his master, but his master turns away. He tries again but through the force but still hears nothing. Then he remembers something else that his master said: “You must feel the force, and listen to all the pleads of the galaxy. It is like an ocean, all the different noises at once; you must isolate one, and listen for it.” He calms his mind and calls out in the force again, this time listening past all the other pleas and cries of the galaxy, and he hears his master’s voice. “Good, you have learned a lesson from this unfortunate event…I will send a Jedi over there to retrieve you.” “Thank you my master,” Sindarin replies. Sindarin stops walking, and dispatches a distress signal on the ground, for the Jedi to know where he is. He makes camp there, and three hours later, he hears the roar of a ships engines, the ship comes to the clearing that Sindarin created using the force and his lightsaber, the ship hovers over the clearing, and Sindarin stops in his tracks. “That is no republic ship,” he starts to turn away, but he hears from behind him a voice that he hoped he would never hear again for the rest of his life.

[Lord Abel]

Darth Pyre: “So Sindarin, I never thought I would see you again, you where a bold little padawan, but I figured you would have been kicked out of the Jedi order a long time ago.”
Sindarin: “Why are you here?”
Darth Pyre: “Why isn’t it obvious…for you. There is a large bounty on Jedi, dead or alive, and besides my master, Darth Cain, wants you dead.
Sindarin: “Darth Cain? My Master to…”
Darth Pyre: “Enough of this talk your master will be next after I am finished with you.”

Darth Pyre Ignites his red lightsaber and steps back into a defensive stance. “Come on attack me!” Sindarin reaches for his lightsaber, and ignites it revealing a silvery orange blade. Sindarin jumps into the air and strikes at Darth Pyres face, but Darth Pyre easily deflects it. Sindarin attacks again, this time striking low, at Darth Pyres stomach, he easily dodges it, and stretches out his hand and force pushes Sindarin into a tree. Sindarin stands up, rushes toward Darth Pyre, and attacks twice. Darth Pyre blocks the first one forcing Sindarin’s lightsaber into the ground, and then shoots force lightning out of his hand, which strikes Sindarin knocking the lightsaber out of his hand, and knocking him back. Darth Pyre walks toward Sindarin and says, “Ha ha ha ha! I was always stronger when we where in the Danntoine academy together.” “You where never stronger, Master Vrook said you had too much anger, and where sure to turn to the dark side, I see now that he ways right. Besides, you could never beat me in a dual with just the force,” replied Sindarin. Darth Pyre enraged that master Vrook said that, stretches out his hand, and starts to choke him. “Stop…please,” pleaded Sindarin. Before Darth Pyre could continue however, he heard a large explosion, and turned around to see the ship he came on burst into a large fireball. He looked up and saw a republic fighter fly down, and land behind him. The republic ships cockpit opens, and out steps out the old Jedi Master Si Quan.

Darth Pyre: “But…I thought my master killed you?”
Si Quan: “You thought wrong, your master killed an illusion, the sith are powerful, but there greed and power blinds them to the truth.”
Sindarin: “Thank you for saving me Master Si Quan.”
Darth Pyre: “I hate to inform you, but I must go, my master would like to have a word with me.”

Darth Pyre presses a series of buttons on his armband, and a ship flies toward them, before Si Quan or Sindarin can stop him, he jumps into the open landing bay of the ship, and the ship takes off. “Here is your lightsaber Sindarin, try not to lose it,” said Si Quan. “I won’t” replied Sindarin, they walk towards the republic fighter, and Si Quan enters the pilot seat while Sindarin climbs into the gunners seat.

Sindarin: “Why are the after me and not the rest of the jedi, I am only a padawan.”
Si Quan: “It wasn’t just you, they are after any jedi they can find, and they do not know where our secret academy is. Speaking of the academy, we need to go there as soon as possible, we are trying to contact all the jedi in the galaxy to meet in our academy, to debate about what to do about the sith.”
Sindarin: “Well then we better get going Master Si Quan.”

[Lord Abel]

A couple hours later, Si Quan’s ship lands on the planet of Naboo, in the mountain region. They land in the many ship hangars, and then exit the ship, and start walking toward the council chambers. They enter the great chamber, to see a handful of jedi and grey jedi, perhaps the last jedi in the galaxy. In the chamber was the real Zilfer, along with his brother Revan, the spirit of Zi Nevel, Bastilla, The Exile, Atton, The disciple, Raiken, Zalora, The guardians of the blue blades, Barros Bree, Cassus Zen, Sindarin, Si Quan, and one other, a jedi all had thought had died in the great climatic battle against his brother, Jedi Master Abel. Zilfer noticing Abel runs up to him and says, “I thought you died?” “My Brother was blinded by his glory, and failed to realize one thing, that a jedi does not die, they become one with the force. I became one with the force, and in my little time as a ghost, I mastered the light side, I found a way to become whole again, it is not possible if you believe in the dark ways of the force.” replied Abel. After everybody became acquainted to one another, Abel said, “Ok, we must get down to business, the brotherhood of darkness is getting stronger by the minute, fellow jedi, grey jedi, we must ban together for now to defeat the sith and my brothers dark brotherhood.” Everyone in the room shouted out agreements and praises. “We must join padawans to masters, and go and find every one strong in the force to join us.”

Master Abel: “Because I am still weak from my battle against my brother, I am in no shape to go out and look for them; I will stay here. Two others will join me, Zilfer, who will represent the grey jedi, and my apprentice Sindarin. The rest of the jedi will pick padawans to personally train.”
Si Quan: “I will take Zalora as my apprentice.”
Revan: “Bastilla and I will stick together.”
The Exile: “Atton and I will go together.”
Johan: “Since Syrenus died, the blue blades will stick together.”
Master Abel: “Good, the rest of you will stay here; I have special assignments for you.

All the jedi that had teamed up with one another climbed into there ships, Revan, Bastilla, The Exile, and Atton decided to travel with each other in the Ebon Hawk. Si Quan and Zalora entered Si’s ship, The Star Luster, and the Blue blades took all separate ships. All the ships take off, and fly into Naboo’s atmosphere, to begin the hunt for beings strong in the force. Master Abel turns away from the hanger window, and walks back toward the council chamber with his apprentice Sindarin.

Sindarin: “Why do you look sad master?”
Master Abel: “It is because I have a feeling that half of them will not return.”
Sindarin: “A lot of them have the same feeling don’t they?”
Master Abel: “Yes they do, but they know what I know, that it must be done.”
Sindarin: “So if they know that they most likely will not come back why did they leave?”
Master Abel: “They left to try and make a difference in the galaxy, they hope that there actions will help put a stop to the brotherhood.”
Sindarin: “You never told me much about the brotherhood of darkness, why?”
Master Abel: “There are many reasons why, one of which is that I used to be a sith.”
Sindarin: “You used to be a sith? I never knew that, why were you a sith?”
Master Abel: “When I was born, I had never left the shadowlands of Kasyyyk until my parents where murdered by mandelorians, that was when Cain, rescued me. He was a Jedi when he found me, but he was already influenced by the dark side. I followed him, because he took me in as his brother, and so I followed him to the dark side, where he started to build what he called the Brother Hood of darkness, a group of the strongest sith in the galaxy.
Sindarin: “So where you his apprentice?”
Master Abel: “Yes, until he battled Si Quan, during that battle, I was fighting Zilfer and Revan, with Darth Nergul by my side, we where winning, until the ship got hit, and I got sucked out of a hole in the ship, everyone thought I was dead. That is when Si Quan turned Cain into a jedi, and his personal apprentice. During my absence, Darth Nergul pronounced himself The Dark Lord of the Sith. When I came back, I found out that Cain had turned to the jedi, and so I made Darth Nergul bow down to me, and I pronounced my self Dark Lord of the Sith.”
Sindarin: “You where the Dark Lord of the Sith? Then how come Si Quan isn’t the jedi master?”
Master Abel: “because he was in hiding when I found him, and so we banded together, to look for the remaining jedi, and that is when we saved you from the bounty hunters on Corusanct. Because we where looking to restore order to the galaxy, we needed all the help we could get, so I choose you as my personal apprentice so we could battle defeat Cain once and for all. Now I think that we are getting closer and closer to that battle, but I must train you, my brother is terribly powerful.”
Sindarin: “Who is your brother? Wait…you can’t be serous, your brother is Darth Cain?”
Master Abel: “Yes, and as far as we know, he doesn’t know I am alive, so we could use that to our advantage.”

[Lord Abel]

Abel and Sindarin reached the Council chambers, and found Raiken and Zilfer engaged in a dual. Zilfer had Raiken in the corner, and was keeping him there; Raiken fought to get out of the corner, but kept getting pushed back. He noticed a pattern with Zilfers, attacks, and dropped his lightsaber to parry Zilfers blow a second before the attack, which caught zilfer off guard, Raiken seeing his opening force pushes Zilfer away to give him more breathing room. Zilfer jumps to his feet, just to be forced again. Raiken this time doesn’t wait for Zilfer to get up, he rushes at Zilfer and puts his lightsaber up to Zilfers neck, and says: “Looks like I bested you this time.” “Ha ha ha ha, I think not,” in one swift move, Zilfer rolls out of Raiken’s way, and sweeps Raiken’s legs out from under him knocking him to the ground.

Master Abel: “Good, Zilfer and Raiken, you are both strong dualists with lightsabers.”
Zilfer: “Thank you Abel, would you care to step into the ring?”
Master Abel: “No, I don’t think I will, I am not as strong with lightsabers, as I used to be.

One of the padawans runs up to the council chambers, and yells: “The sith have found us, the sith have fo….” Before he can continue his sentence, he slumps over revealing his back smoldering from blaster fire. The group of sith troopers, rush up the stars, and start firing at the jedi, Raiken rolls on the floor toward the closest one, and brings his lightsaber up into the troopers stomach, the trooper slumps to the ground, and Raiken gets up, to chop down the next one, when it gets chopped in half right before his eyes, Zilfer appears on the other side of the trooper with his lightsaber extended. Sindarin jumps at the third trooper will it fires; he deflects the blaster bolt into the fourth, and chops the third in half vertically. The final trooper gets forced against the wall by Abel so hard it kills him instantly. “Hurry, shouts Abel, “That was only a scouting party, more will come. Raiken and Zilfer, go guard the jedi Library, Cassus and Bassus, you guard the hangers, Sindarin, I want you to guard the dormitories, let none of the sith get to the young pada…” “But I want to stay and with you and help you fight. You don’t have a lightsaber.” “No you must go and guard the padawans, we are lucky the sith snuck through, without letting any one know they where here, other then that poor padawan.” Abel replied. Moments later, after all the jedi and grey jedi, went to guard there respective areas, Abel hears the marching of thousands of sith troopers, coming toward the council chambers. Abel stands up, as the first groups of sith troopers enter the chamber. They raise there rifles, at Abel, and the commander yells “Freeze or will shoot jedi.” Abel sits down, and points his hand toward the storage room doors, connected to the chambers. The door opens, and out flies what looks like, to the sith troopers, hundreds of shiny metallic cylinders. Abel holds them up with the force in front of him, and then all at once, the room is filled with a rainbow of different colors. The sith troopers dropped there weapons, and turn to run away as Abel thrust the lightsabers at the troopers like javelins. Hundreds of sith troopers die from Abel’s constant onslaught. Over in the hanger, Cassus and Barros where fighting the sith, and holding off the sith from entering the hanger. Sith where dropping right and left, to the two Jedi’s attacks, when they are met by sith apprentices, Cassus attacks the first one, but it blocks his attack, he then fakes the sith, and then stabs the apprentice in the stomach. Barros jumps into the air cutting threw numerous sith, and sith troopers. One sith slips by them, and rushes toward the ship, to sabotage the ships automated guns, suddenly the laser turret targets the sith apprentice, and fires burning a hole through the sith’s chest. In the Jedi archives, Zilfer and Raiken fight against numbers way out numbering them selves, they cut through the siths lines like a hot knife through butter, using both jedi and sith forms. Sindarin sits guarding the door to the padwann’s dormitories, hearing the sounds of battle from off in the distance, he stands up and ignites his lightsaber, as a single scout comes running around the corner. The trooper falls to Sindarins blade, and Sindarin with a look of boredom sits back down. “Why did Master Abel want me to guard the dormitories? He knows I am more then capable of fighting against a lot of troops with him.” Mutters Sindarin. He sits pondering this, when suddenly from around the corner rushes a sith apprentice, with two lightsabers. “Now I get some action,” Shouted Sindarin as he engaged the Sith apprentice. He striked high, only for his blow to be blocked, and with the his other lightsaber, the apprentice strikes at Sindarins head, Sindarin jumps out of the way, and force pushes the sith into the window, and he fell threw the window, and to the ground below.

[Lord Abel]

The battle rages on for hours, from up above the planet, Darth Cain stands facing the space battle, his mechanical eye studying the battle. He turns around at the approach of the captain.

Captain: “Milord, the Jedi are pushing back the forces in the temple, I don’t know how, there is only an estimated hundred of them including younglings.”
Darth Cain: “Failure is not an option that I think you would like to make. Tell Darth Pyre to aid the troops in the assault on the temple.”
Captain: “Yes milord, one thing, I hear reports on the radio, that there is a strong jedi down there all by himself, guarding the council chambers he is ripping threw our forces like a chain gun.”
Darth Cain: “Interesting, get my shuttle, I am going down there personally.”

Darth Cain and Darth Pyre get on Cain’s shuttle, and take off to help the assault on the jedi temple. The shuttle enters Naboo’s atmosphere, above the temple, and they notice the holes in the temple from the bombing. They land in front of the steps leading up to the temple, and get out to join the fight. Abel stops attacking, and senses through the force, a great disturbance, he force pushes the legions of sith, to the ground and then hurls lightsabers at them, until none remain. He walks toward the cabinet and grabs the only lightsaber left in it. He feels the handle, and its intricate designs, his original lightsaber. He walks toward the center of the chamber and sits down to meditate. Suddenly he stands up and throws himself to the end of the cambers, as the entry hall collapses under heavy bombing from the sith. He goes through the secret entrance, which leads him down a hall, and into the Dormitories, he finds Sindarin fighting two sith apprentices. Abel reaches out his hand and the two sith fly against the wall so hard, that Abel hears their backbone snap. “Hurry Sindarin, we must get to the hanger. We need to get out of here, I believe Darth Cain is here himself and I don’t want him knowing I am alive yet. What happened to all the younglings?” There where too many of them, they snuck by me and started killing them all,” replied Sindarin. He follows Abel as they run toward the Archives. They find Zilfer and Raiken waiting for more sith to come. They join up with Abel and Sindarin as they make there way to the hanger. They get to the hanger, and find Cassus and his apprentice Barros Bree attacking a handful of troopers; they dispatch them, and then join Abel in boarding a shuttle to leave the temple behind. After the ship has taken off, they look behind them to see the Jedi Temple, go up in a red and orange color display. The Jedi temple continues to burn, and black smoke bellows from where the jedi temple is. The Jedi shuttle exits Naboos atmosphere, and they enter hyperspace, to look for the rest of the jedi.

Sindarin: “So how are you doing Casuss?”
Casuss: “Well other then the fact that the jedi temple got blown up, I am doing well. I heard Si Quan and Abel talking while you where away, and they where saying that, the jedi are going to come out of hiding and attack the sith.”
Sindarin: “So it’s going to be like another Jedi war?”
Cassus: “I don’t know for sure, but if it is I am sure Abel will put us together.”
Sindarin: “Most likely, but where are the rest of the jedi? Weren’t they supposed to answer the call, and come to Naboo?”
Cassus: “Ha ha ha ha! That is the funny part. Abel sent the meeting signal, to every jedi he wanted to, Si Quan new most of them, so they where the ones Si Quan new the best. But if he would have sent it to every jedi, then we would have lost a lot of jedi today.”
Sindarin: “So he was tricking the sith?”
Cassus: “Of course, the sith are too stupid and power hungry to realize the trick.”

[Lord Abel]

Casus and Sindarin continue to talk, as the ship travels through hyperspace, but on the planet Tatoinne, Revan, Bastilla, Atton, and the Exile search for jedi in the small village of Mos Eisley. They come up to a door, and knock. Moments later a young boy answers the door.

Little boy: “Who are you and what do you want?”
Bastilla: “We need to speak to your father, is he around?”
Little boy: “I am sorry, but he went out earlier today into the Dune Sea to go Dragon hunting. He is an excellent hunter, and knows how to last days or weeks out there; I imagine he is pretty far out.”
Bastilla: “Well this is important, so do you know when he will be back?”
Little boy: “That’s the problem, he hasn’t been back for a month, and we don’t know what happened to him. So could you perhaps search for him?”
Atton: “We planned on it anyway.”

The jedi walk away, and towards the hanger, they load up the Ebon Hawk and fly out into the desert. They land the ship, on one of the sand dunes in the vast desert. They notice a huge hill off in the distance made of rock, and leave HK-47 and the rest of the cargo behind in the ship. They begin the walk to the hill, but it never seems to get any closer. They keep walking until they can’t see the Ebon hawk anymore.

Revan: “When are we going to get to the hill?”
Bastilla: “I fear we are never going to get there, it is probably an illusion.”
Atton: “Damn! I knew we shouldn’t have listened to that kid!”
Exile: “Calm down, here comes someone on a speeder.”

The person on the speeder, turns toward them, and stops 10 feet in front of them. A young man in his thirties steps off the speeder, and walks toward them, he stops right in front of them and says in a booming voice: “What are you doing out here all by your self?”

Revan: “We came in search of a jedi, and we where told by his son that he is in the desert out here. Have you seen any one at all out here?”
Man: “Nope, I haven’t seen any one for about a month. Actually I think I did see your friend, follow me.

The man gets on his speeder bike, and puts it on cruise. He leads them toward the hill, and an hour later they arrive. The man jumps off his speeder bike, right before the entrance, and motions for them to follow him. He leads them around the corner, and into the mouth of a huge cave, he leads them 10 feet into the cave, and points over in the corner at a rotting body, with flies and maggots eating away at the flesh.

Man: “I think that is the person you are looking for. Here are his belongs, I picked them off him will he was still whole.”

He hands Revan, a lightsaber, and a communicator. They stare at the body, as if it isn’t there, and then Revan starts to walk away.

Man: “I wouldn’t leave right now, you need to stock up on supplies.”
Revan: “Fine, we will stay a night, but we need to report this to Abel.”
Bastilla: “I will contact the academy.”

[Lord Abel]

Bastilla walks to the back of the cave, and sets up the communication devices they brought. Revan sets up camp at the mouth of the cave, and by dusk Bastilla returns with a pale expression.

Bastilla: “The academy isn’t answering, I fear it was attacked.”
Revan: “What? How? Abel would have seen it coming, not to mention Si Quan and all the others. There must be some mistake, try again.”
Bastilla: “It is no mistake; there is only one person that is capable of attacking that swiftly. And I am not even sure if Abel survived him.”
Atton: “You don’t mean that Cain actually went there himself do you?”
Bastilla: “It is the only possibility, besides, they where talking about how an attack could come at any moment.”

The group ponders this, and then goes back to the tents. At nightfall the man that led them to the cave returns with a couple of lizards. He makes a fire, and starts to cook the lizards. Bastilla wakes up, and walks out there to greet him.

Man: “Hey nice to meet you today.”
Bastilla: “Yes, thanks for saving us.”
Man: “No problem, but I saved you, so now you have to do something for me.”
Bastilla: “What do you mean?”

The man, walks closer to her and grabs on to her arm. “You can sleep in my tent tonight.” Bastilla resists, but finds her self giving way to his advances. He drags her to his tent, and closes the flap behind her, he lays her down, and she doesn’t have time to scream out for help. As the sun rises, Revan wakes up, and finds that Bastilla is not next to him, he shrugs and figures she went out to see if she could contact Abel. He falls back asleep, and wakes up an hour later to find that she still hasn’t returned. He wakes up and walks out of his tent, and notices that the speeder that the man found them with isn’t here. He walks up to the mans tent and opens the flap to a horrible sight. Bastilla is lying there naked and her neck is twisted back in an odd way. He looks at her more closely and notices her neck was slit. He turns around, too late and is stabbed in the chest by the mans knife, he starts to fade as he loses lots of blood, and then he realizes that they where all led into a trap, the man morphs into his natural form, a half alien and wolf creature. Revans fades out of life, and notices on the ground a few feet away from the creature, Attons and the Exiles body laying lifeless on the ground.

Abel immediately wakes up from his slumber, and feels that another life has been lost. Raiken enters the room with a look of sadness on his face.

Abel: “Revan…Bastilla…Atton…the Exile…all killed at once.”
Raiken: “Cain has become more threating to the jedi, all that can be said is that he needs to be killed immedaitaly.”

Raiken returns to his chambers, as the ship continues to fly through hyper space.
