Splin Cell: The Mirror Universe

[Lord Nexus]

Atredious seemed to be too powerful and delivered a killing blow to Splin, but after a trip to the nether world of the force,Splin
returned as powerful as ever and finished Atredious, but not before learning of his father's fate. Convinced his father still lived somewhere, Splin set off to search the galaxy.

Upon learning from his Uncle Atredious, the fate of his parents, and what they had done for him, Splin set out to find more answers. Not being convinced that his father or mother were truly dead, still feeling them out there somewhere in the galaxy.

Somewhere out in the vastness of uncharted unknown space, Splin slipped into or discovered the mirror universe, as well as his father and his mother Eva. Finally given the chance to meet them in person, it was so eerie and strange. Yet he soon learned that Atredious had lost his mind, even in this mirror universe and that he would soon be coming for the whole family.

"So this is the world in which I would have lived my childhood out, strange.."Splin Cell said to himself. Though his parents Eva and Splin being close beside each other in the house thought that they might mention something. Eva spoke, "Splin..This isn't the same world you were born on hun. I can't explain it myself but it seems your from another dimension or some sort of mirror image of our own..Except slightly different. "She said softly.
Splins father continued to smile at him, so proud of what his son had become or would become. He spoke loudly but with a gentle tone, "My son. I don't care where you came from, because I know in my heart you are the same man as I am this day. A good man...I'm very proud of you Splin. But what on earth was your mother thinking when she gave you my name?! Hahaha.." Splin's father said.
Splin looked to each of them, seeing them in the flesh it was still so strange. Simply the idea, yet he had spoke with Jade, his love and hope for all eternity through the force, even though she was departed. Splin spoke, "She gave me your name, and your strength father."He said.
Looking back to them he noticed they seemed like they were trying to hide something from him, "Is there something you want to tell me?"Splin asked.
Eva looked over to her husband with a look of concern and then back to Splin her son. "Atredious-"She said before being interrupted by Splin. "Is dead. I killed him back on Coruscant."He said. Eva spoke again, "Not in this world Splin..Not in this dimension. He is on his way to kill us, and you.."Eva said in a concerned voice. "Kill me? He doesn't even know I exist."Splin said. "The other you Splin.."Eva said with a smile. "Rune,"She said.

Suddenly it hit Splin like a sack full of bricks to the face. If his parents had doubles and so did everyone else that would mean, he would also have an almost exact carbon copy of himself in this mirror universe. Splin almost fell out of his chair, though his father caught him before he fully did. " I know son, its a lot to take in at once. For your mother and me too. Would you like to meet him? "Splin's father stated and asked.
Splin stood up as did Eva and Splin's father, they led the way to a small room in the back of the house. To a crib where a cute infant lay resting, sleeping gently. Splin couldn't help but stare, and as he stared so did his father back to Splin. " Amazing isn't it???" His father said.
Splin continued to look at the child, "What are you going to do when Atredious arrives?"Splin asked. "I have to defend what I love Splin. I have to defeat him."His father said. Splin knew the fate of his own father, he died trying to protect his child and wife. "Father I have to tell you somethi-"Splin was interrupted by a knock at the door.
Eva spoke, "I'll get it." She exited the room to answer the door. Splin looked back to his father, "In my world you died trying to protect us. I can't let that happen again."Splin said. "My son. If I am ment to perish then it is the will of the Force. You are here for a reason, the force has a reason for you being here."His father said.
Suddenly there was a scream from the front door in the other room, it was Eva. Splin's father ran into the other room to investigate, Splin bent down to raise the infant out of its crib and into his arms. Walking out into the other room where he parents were, he saw them both, lightsaber ignited, and in the doorway in the flesh was Atredious. Healthy as ever.

[Lord Nexus]

Atredious: So I see you've taught another pathetic human in our ways Eva. No matter, he will soon meet your same fate.
Splin Cell Sr: Not if I have anything to say about it.

Splin's father went to approach Atredious but was too slow, Splin had already sent Atredious flying back with a Force Push. Eva and his father looked back at Splin with Rune in his arms.

Eva: Splin, you have to run! This is your fathers and my fight, not yours. Get Ruin out of here, make sure he is safe.
Splin Cell: No! I won't leave you here to die. You can't beat him on your own.
Splin Cell Sr: My son. Have you learned nothing...Those that show love in the shadow of destruction are always victorious.

Suddenly Splin had a flashback to Jade and his former self Darth Koonda. Atredious was now back with red lightsaber ignited a few feet from the door. Eva looked back to Splin and Rune...

Eva: I will always be with you..I love both of you.

Suddenly Eva raised her hand to Splin and Force Pushed him backwards through the back window of the house where his ship was. Atredious entered the house, and Splin's father Force Pushed the door behind Atredious shut so that they were locked inside the house. Splin picked himself up and knew in his heart his parents were right, he lowered the loading ramp and just then he heard his mother cry out.

Eva: Splin! Run! Run Splin Run!

Splin boarded his ship with Rune in his arms and piloted the ship out of the system. Realizing he would never have the chance to see them again, then suddenly he felt even sadder for young Ruin who would never have the chance to meet them. Or know who they were or what he was. Splin set course back to the known galaxy and jumped to hyperseed.
While bound he realized Rune deserved to know who and what he was. This infant boy would be the savior of the galaxy, just as Splin had been. Knowing darkness would never be kept under control in his absence, he imparted onto Rune his essence. He gave Rune half of himself, the Luminos half, so that one day this boy could stand a chance against the dark side and those would would do evil. Knowing that he would not always be around to fight evil back into the darkness, it was the wisest choice. Concentrating on the Force within himself, he transferred the illuminating life force of the Luminos into Rune. Who would one day be called upon to face impossible odds, and he would succeed. When the boy finally learned to use the Force he would begin to remember Splin's life, as seen through his eyes. When the presence of greatness he would be humble, and when the presence of darkness he would be the light.
After the transfer was complete Splin set course for Tatoonie, barren, no population really to speak of, the infant Ruin would be safe there until he was needed.

[Lord Nexus]

Splin entered the Tatoonie system and landed his ship near Anchorhead. He wrapped Ruin in some cloth before venturing out into the environment, he felt weaker himself now, dear say human. Not something he was use to at all, his strength depleted, though he did not complain it was for a good cause. He only hoped for all the good he had done that maybe it would balance out the evil he had brought into this world. He walked through the desert. As he walked he knew his time wouldn't last long, the voices told him that, those who had gone before. In doing this he redeemed himself, and soon would be able to see Jade once more. Coming upon a group of sand people, he hid from their view, they would attack him on sight, but not the child. He left Ruin where he had been hiding, but not before giving him a kiss on the forehead, Splin retreated back toward the direction of his ship. The female Sand People soon heard the cries of young Ruin and came to investigate. Upon returning to his ship Splin had received a distress call from his old friend Samuel Nexus, he was on Coruscant. He was in need of help battling off the newest threat to the galaxy, Splin set the hyperspeed coordinates and jumped to hyperspace.
