Memories of the Force (Episode 3)

[philly]

Dred Akunin: The Jedi will be crushed.

Dred Leaves Nexus and takes a shuttle out toward the industrial sector of Coruscant. There Darth Striker is waiting.....

[Lord Nexus]

As soon as Dred had departed Nexus turned back around and sat in his chair, he activated the holo-grapic used to communicate with Lord Kumori. He waited for his master to answer his call, Nexus had to warn him of the coming threat.

[philly]

Kumori's wrist communicator goes off. He does not answer at first. Finally the communication gets through.

*hologram*Darth Kumori: What is it Lord Nexus, this had better be important....
Darth Nexus: I assure you it is....

[Lord Nexus]

*hologram*Darth Nexus: You must not go to Courscant. Meet me here on my ship Lord Kumori. That is the only safe place right now in the galaxy.

[philly]

Darth Kumori: I am.....indisposed at the moment. I will not be able to join you until the planet is taken. You'd better be right about this Lord Nexus, I do not wish to delay our victory long....

[Si Quan]

OOC: No problem about knocking me out nexeus, I don't care, I'm surprised you didn't kill me lol.

Keith finally woke up

Keith: How the hell does someone get knocked out by a lightsaber hilt? Oh well, I gotta get moving.

Keith got up and noticed everyone was gone. He walked back to the clearing where Oron's ship was supposed to be, but there was nothing there.

Keith: That little......leaving me here like that. Grrr... this is gunna take me longer than I thought.

Keith begins his long walk back to the city.

[Lord Nexus]

From what Lord Kumori had said it confirmed to Darth Nexus that infact Dred Akunin was really Lord Kumori, every Sith hid behind a false identity. Now Kumori would know if Nexus was about to attack, it was time that he used his last resource. The entire plan of this laid out so carefully by Lord Kumori, but another was also laid out beside it, running the same way except for the end. The end had a different outcome then that of Kumori's plan, Nexus turned the hologram off making sure he wouldn't be able to answer it again. The view changes to infront of Nexus sitting in a low chair, a shadowy figure can be seen standing in the hallway behind him.

??: It is time isn't it?
*Nexus smiles*
Darth Nexus: Yes my friend. It is time. Are you sure you want to do this?
??: I know it is for the greater good...

Nexus stands up and walks into the hallway and gives the figure a hug before he leaves, the figure climbs into a spacepod and blasts off to the surface of Courscant. Darth Nexus slowly looks down the hall where Splin's body was being kept, it was gone...

The spacepod slams into Courscant a few hundred yards away from the future battle field, the door hatch opens and steam rises out from it. The figure climbs out and stands up, he cracks his neck. The figure has his hood up, though some of his robe is missing. Mainly the front, where a big gash is. The figure begins to walk until he can see Lord Kumori on the horizen, he continues on until he is about 20 feet away. Then he shouts out to the dark lord.

??: Darth Kumori!!!

The figure raises his hands up to his hood and puts it down to reveal the face of Splin Cell, Darth Kumori looks shocked to say the least.

Splin Cell: I have come to finish you...

[Si Quan]

When he finally got to the city, he put up his hood, and hid his lightsaber. He didn't know who was watching, and he didn't want trouble....at least not yet.

He walked into the local cantina. If he wanted to get back to Oron, he needed a ship to get off the planet. He ordered a drink and looked around for pilots. A few jawas came up to him.

Keith: Get out of here yout little freaks. I'm not buying anything.
Then he got an idea.
Keith: Wait, I'm sorry, come back. I need to ask you something.
When they refused, Keith used force persuasion on them.
Keith: You want to come and help me
Jawa: Ooochibie! (I want to help you)
Keith: Good. Now tell me who here is a good pilot.

The jawas pointed over to a table seating a lone Twi'lek. Keith walked over.

Keith: I need a good pilot.
Twi'lek: Well it must be your lucky day 'cause you're lookin' at one. The names Reydo, but you can call me Speedy.
Keith smiled
Keith: I need to get off this planet. I'm not exactly sure where we'll go after that.
Speedy: Alright 30,000 credits, no questions asked
Keith reached into his pockets and only found 5,000 credits
Keith: ummm sure, i'll pay 5,000 now, and I'll pay the rest, plus an extra 10 thousand later.
Speedy thought this sounded fishy to him, but he couldn't resist the thought of all those credits.
Speedy: Alright, we have ourselves a deal.

[Si Quan]

As the ship leaves Alderaan's atmoshpere, Speedy asks: So Where we going captain?
Keith: Korriban.
Speedy: What!? Korriban? Are you crazy? Nobody goes there! That place is haunted!
Keith: We're going.
Speedy: Oh no we're n-
Keith ignites his lightsaber and puts it to Speedy's neck.
Speedy: Change in plan. We will now be flying to Korriban, have a nice flight.
Speedy murmers under his breath: What have I gotten myself into this time?

[Si Quan]

As they landed on Korriban's surface, Keith tells Speedy to stay with the ship.

Keith paces back and forth, thinking: I'm no jedi master, how am I supposed to free the sould of those jedi?
??: With my help
Keith: Wha-? W-who said that? And how do you know what I'm thinking?
??: Don't be afraid im here to help
A force ghost of an old man appeared
Keith: Who are you?
??: I'm Si Quan. Or at least the spirit of him. I died long ago.
The name sounded familliar to Keith. Then it hit him
Keith: Si Quan? THE Si Quan?
Si Quan chuckeled: Yes, that would be me.
Keith: How come you weren't with the other masters on Alderaan.
Si Quan: I've made it my mission to help the jedi in the galaxy, and help maintain the peace. I was never one for just sitting around and doing nothing. So I come to those who need my help. You, my friend, need my help.
Keith: So you can help me free the masters?
Si Quan: I'm afraid that's beyond my abilities. But I think I know someone who can.

Suddenly another force ghost appeared, this one of Kyle Drex.

Kyle: That damn Akunin. I'm still getting used to being a ghost.
Keith: I need to free the jedi masters from the planets core.
Kyle: Hmmmmm.....alright, let's give it a shot.
Kyle goes into Keith's body, taking over him
Keith: W-Wait!
Kyle: Don't worry, this doesn't hurt.....I think

As Keith merged with the spirit of Kyle, Keith's eyes rolled back, and then glowed bright silver. Keith levitated and lifted up his arms. The sky turned dark. Keith's eyes now closed in concentration and now the jedi masters' spirits appeared one by one. After they were all back, Kyle left Keith's body.

Keith walked back to the ship.
Speedy: Did you get what you came for?
Keith: Yeah. Oh, and we have a little company.
Speedy: Huh?
Hundreds of force ghosts appeared in the ship
Speedy: Your'e definatly paying extra for this.

[Zilfer Of Shadows...]

at this moment 2 people where confused over a message that had been sent dirrectly to them. the message read....

there are my offencive line.
da ranks are newss aware informants.
today thou sees who sees the arch of or for raven.
see to kill him outside on alderaan.
planet the office into the depts of haven's llife.
yo, u mayd the step of beautiful attire head away.
in the end you gain nothing more.
thy shadows await.

luster: what the hell is this supossed to mean?
yuri: well i dont thinks its to be taken literaly.
Luster: that's for sure.
Yuri: must be some sort of code or something... see news is spelt with 2 "s" and so is life.
Luster: but what could it mean?
Yuri: give me a sec....

[Zilfer Of Shadows...]

[Zilfer Of Shadows...]

yuri used his eyes to see the hidden message.

Yuri: we must leave for now.
Luster: to where?
Yuri: to seek answers where there are none.
Carashi: i dont really care where we go.
Luster: well better than sitting around like we are now.

they blasted off.

[Lord Nexus]

Aboard his ship Nexus could feel the loss through the Force, something had to be done. Splin could only hold Kumori off for so long, it was inevintble. The old races were dying out, and the new were replacing them. The new were stronger, faster, more agile in the Force. It was only a matter of time until Lord Nexus himself would be replaced, somehow Nexus's holographic communicator came on. A message that read as such, there are my offencive line.
da ranks are newss aware informants.
today thou sees who sees the arch of or for raven.
see to kill him outside on alderaan.
planet the office into the depts of haven's llife.
yo, u mayd the step of beautiful attire head away.
in the end you gain nothing more.
thy shadows await.

Nexus thought about it for a moment, reading it back to himself in his mind. Then he knew what it ment, he contacted Lord Striker on Courscant.

Darth Striker: What is it my master?
Darth Nexus: Get of Courscant. Make sure to sneak away as Dred is occupied with Splin Cell.
Darth Striker: Yes my master.

Striker managed to sneak aboard Splin's ship the FireBreaker and fly out of the atmosphere, getting away from Kumori he sat down next to Nexus's ship. He and Nexus met in the control room, the only two living sentients in the entire ship.

Darth Nexus: It is time we go and see an old friend.
Darth Striker: Before we set forth I must go see an old friend.
Darth Nexus: Can he be trusted?
Darth Striker: Yes...He can be trusted.

[Lord Nexus]

Striker and Nexus had travaled back to Utapau, Darth Striker had told Lord Nexus to wait with the ship. Lord Striker walked the same way he had before, except it didn't seem as long to get there. He had reached the cave again, this time no saber ignited as Striker walked into the dark damp cave. You can see the outline of Striker helping the figure up to his feet, they slowly begin to walk out of the cave. The figure is wearing a brown robe with gashes and holes in it, he has his hood up coming out of the cave so he is not blinded by the sun. The way he walks mirrors that of an old man, feeble and unable to help himself. They return to Nexus waiting at the ship, Nexus doesn't seem to accepting of their new guest. The figure looks up and sees the FireBreaker attached to Nexus's gaint ship, his voice is that of an old man.

??: The FireBreaker...That is a ship I have not seen in a long time....
Darth Striker: We sould leave the main ship here and travel in the FireBreaker.
Darth Nexus: Yes...Darth Kumori may be able to track it. Then we head to our next destination. By the way old man. What is your name?

The old man smiles under his hood and you can see zabrak tatoos on his pale skin, he says nothing as they board the ship and take off.
