Star Wars

[Kepic]

The Emperor

"The Starblade?" hissed the Emperor, "so thats why you came to this system. No matter, I am prepared".

With that, the Emperor raised his hand, and an Imperial Guardsmen pulled back his red cloak, revealing a black pyramid in his hands.

A sphere ontop of it glowed red for a moment, then shot forth crackling beams of ruby energy which struck Zen, Kayla, Sha'ara and Tawain.

Immediately, the Jedi found there powers waning, and their bodies wracked in pain.

As the Jedi dropped to the floor, the Emperor laughed, as he felt their power being transferred to him.

"The Jedi... enslaved to the Sith at last. The Light, fueling the Dark. I have won".

Gasping in pain, Tawain felt the Starblade roll from his grasp.

We've lost! his mind bellowed, fighting against the pull of the energy drain.

No retorted Sha'ara, gritting her teeth, We haven't... that thing is struggling to draw our power... don't fight it

What? Zen spoke in their minds, Give the Emperor more power?

Yes Sha'ara answered, Overload it...

OOC: The Emperor couldn't get another big pyramid built in time, but he repaired the ancient artifact... ooops, that might have been a mistake... ...

Lando Calrissian

I watched on as Farlo gave Han that grim nod of approval. As Han pulled out his blaster and aimed it at Jarko, I can see Farlo close his eyes as the sounds of Hans gun going off makes him flinch. Turning back to Han, I see two beams of energy fly from his weapon into Jarkos chest. A blood curdling scream fills the room as Jarko drops the saber to the floor and clutches his chest.

With a low thump, Jarkos body falls to the cold floor, his eyes still open with that look of surprise and confusion on his face. And with that, it was over for Jarkos days of terror. During the whole thing, Farlo stood still with his eyes still closed, his body still facing away from Jarko.

Han put away his weapon and told Farlo, "We'll be outside the room, kid. When you're ready, we'll leave to meet up with the others." With that, Han and I left the room to let Farlo have a moment alone before we go.

[poohlive]

Ronag held his ground, but he couldn't for long.
His mind closed in, feeling the screams.
The Jedi, it was in trouble. Their power, weakening.
Noooo.
Ganor felt it too, "Yes... it will all be done."
A tear rolled down his cheek. He hadn't finished the training, of course they weren't prepared. Sha'ara needed to know.
He ducked low, sending his foot out. Ganor lept, but he wasn't quick enough. His right foot caught, and he fell to the floor.
"This isn't over." Ronag ran for the X wing.
He was out in a minute. Heading for the other, and slightly bigger Death Star. Ronag chuckled, Ganr must really hate that man.
Ganor felt blood in his mouth. He crawled to the console.
"Check, and mate," he cackled, pressing the button.
Ronag realized it a second too late, the planet (don't even think I am going to try and pronounce it, damn english major) erupted in a white light.
Ronag shielded his eyes, but even then he could still see the light through his arm.
It was soo bright. The small ship rocked back and forth profusely (it means a lot). Ronag hit his head, blacking out.
Inside, he saw only white...

Ganor smiled, he had done it. The planet destroyed. He cursed the Jedi for not being strong enough to take care of the Emporer, but no matter. As soon as he was rested, he might just challenge the asshole himself.
He was at a new level (what is this Dragonball Z? ::smile: after all.
"It's been too long Ganor."
His eyes grew wide, as he turned around.
(blast from the past, lol, if you know what I mean.
Oh wait a minute you don't, lol, going to have to check in next time.... oh, I hate it when they end like that)

OOC: Ummm.. guys???

Help?? I've completely lost the plot... whats happened? Sorry I've been out of commission for so long... major hassles in my personal life... we all gotta have them I guess... is my character still alive out in the thread void somewhere?

[hopeful smile]...

hmmm... scrolling back and seeing photo's changing hands... [deadly look at Poohlive and Renegade]
Honestly... you just can't trust men to be gentlemen when they've been left on their own! [lol]

 

[poohlive]

Ooc: I am a gentleman. It's that asshole Ganor who screwed you... no wait, blame the Emporer, it was his camera.
Yeah, it isn't my fault at all...

Up to speed. We are all back at the planet (damnit, ummm) Silathos... or something. You know the Jedi planet.
Anyway, the Emporer is currently raging war on all of the Jedi's. The Starblade was found, and is being used to destroy the Emporer's dark sword thingy... I am not good with names ok.
Anyways, all the characters are on the big Deathstar, except Ronag, who is on his way.
Ganor, being on his own deathstar, just blew up the planet, and we are talking, still crsipy, if you know what I mean... I gave you a perfect way in Money...
If you read my last thread, it says a blast from the past. It's perfect, fits you like a glove, or a tight pair of jeans.... oh yeah, maybe a halter top, with those red garter...
SNAP OUT OF IT!
Oh, sorry, anyways, you really didn't miss much, lol, except the mud wrestling

 

[Renegade]

Zen

I wasn't sure if what Sha'ara had planned would work, but at the rate we were going we had little choice. Kneeling down, I placed my hands on my legs and began to release my full potential of control for the force.

The Emperor began to take more of it into himself at an alarming rate. The others slowly began to do the same thing, sending more energy to The Emperor.

 

[Kepic]

OOC: Thanks Renegade! I have to try and make the last Farlo/Jarko scene a good one, really, glad you like it.

Farlo

I heard Han's words, but they had hardly registered. I knew that now, I was meant to grieve over my brother's death. I opened my eyes to feel them release tears down my cheeks, and I turned to look down at Jarko on the floor.

I knelt beside him, looking at my brother in a stranger's body. He had already died, in service to the Emperor. He had given his life to the Imperium, in the service of evil, and while many younger officers might actually believe that they were fighting for a just cause, he knew what the Imperium truly stood for.

Nonetheless, he was my brother. I had loved him once. If I couldn't forgive him now, for what he had done, for the life he had chosen to lead, for the mistakes he had made - when?. I put my hand over his face and closed his eyes.

"Goodbye Jarko" I said, standing slowly. I looked at him for a few moments, then lifted the lightsabre off of the floor into my right hand with the force, and left, blinking the last tear from my eyes.

 

[Kepic]

The Emperor

The Emperor's laugh echoed about the throneroom. "Pitiful Jedi! Today your kind will be enslaved to the service of the Sith - my service - forever!"

"My Emperor..." said the Imperial guardsman behind him.

Palpatine turned to see the black pyramid in the loyal guard's hands vibrating, the red sphere glowing now almost blindingly-bright. The beams that crackled from it to the Jedi, who curled up in fetal positions on the floor, where dancing fiercely about in the air like lightning.

His laugh was cut short as the ancient Sith artifact exploded, sending obsidian splinters and red crystal fragments through the air. The guardman was torn to pieces, and Palpatine himself was struck with several of the shards before he shielded himself with the force.

"NOOO!" he cried, then feeling the backlash of energy from the artifact's destruction. His own command of the darkside was being pulled from him. Before he managed to reign in that drain, the power that he had stolen from the Jedi had been returned, tenfold.

He turned back to see his enemies getting to their feet, and screamed his rage at them.

"Very well, if you will not serve, then you will die!" he shouted, raising the Fang once more.

As his anger refueled his power, Palpatine telepathically sent his orders to the remaining Imperial Guardsmen in the room, to join the fray. The red-robed elite guard of the Emperor joined his side, their force pikes crackling.

OOC: Well, the Guardsmen never got a fight scene in the movies - had to let them in at some point. I think forcepikes can actually parry lightsabres (they project a forcefield about the weapon I believe), so they should put up a decent fight at least, lol.

 

[Lightman]

Tawain

As the Sith artifact shattered, Tawain joyously sent his thoughts out to Sha'ara.
Sha'ara, you're a genius!
Grasping the Starblade, he got to his feet again. The Jedi were outnumbered, but they had gained great power--the chances were even.
But such consideration were secondary to Tawain. Spotting the Emperor, he raised his weapon, crying
"ELIRIAAAAAAAL!!!!!"

 

[Renegade]

Lando Calrissian

The doors to the room opened up, allowing Farlo to exit the room. I was about to ask if he was ok, but before I could he answered "I'll be ok, right now we got to get to the others. Something tells me they are in need of our help."

Han jumped in "Then let's get going. We'll take the Falcon back to the Death Star."

With that, the three of us ran to the hangar to board the Falcon. Some StormTroopers got in our way, but they all fell easily to our combined efforts against them. Finaly, we made it to the Falcon and boarded. As we flew out of the Vengeance, I asked "Shouldn't we have done something to make sure that thing couldn't hurt anyone else?"

Han corrects, "I already set up a few bombs inside while we were waiting for Farlo."

As soon as he finished that, the Vengeance erupted into a series of explosions. This continued until all that was left was pieces of metal from the mighty ship. Farlo kept his eyes on what was left of the ship till we landed inside of the Death Star.

Once we all got off the Falcon, Han tells us "Ok gentlemen, this is it. The Emperor is in there with our friends and we need to make sure his days end here. Let's end this today."

With that, the three of us ran down the corridor as Farlo led us with his Jedi powers.

 

[Renegade]

Zen

The Imperial Guardsmen charged forword to take us on as The Emperor and Tawain eyed each other. The four backed away to a more open area of the throne room. There had to be atleast thirteen of the Imperial Guardsmen around us. This had us at a great disadvantage, as we were outnumbered three to one.

The Emperor told us with a grin, "Even four Jedi knights can't win against so many of my Imperial Guardsmen."

Another voice tells him, "Maybe not, but how about if they had help from another Jedi, a pissed off dad, and his best friend?" We turn to the doorway to see Han, Lando, and Farlo enter the throne room.

The Emperors grin turns to a look of anger as he yells out, "Imperial Guardsmen, kill them all now!"

And the final battle began...

 

[poohlive]

Ronag opened his eyes.
How long was he out? Ten minutes, an hour? He didn't know. He looked at the control board, everything was off. All the readings showed negative.
Ronag looked outside, trying to get a feel of where he was. The Death Star was right in front of him. It was huge, leering clowed and closer towards him.
He grabbed the stick, turning to the right, nothing happened.
"What?"
He turned again, this time the other way, again nothing. He looked at the Death Star, it was coming closer to him. Fast, too fast.
He hit the air brakes (I never tire of humor, oh wait, no air in space) space brakes. Again nothing, if anything he was going faster.
"I'm gonna hit..."
He closed his eyes, concentrating on the ship. He made a field around it, thinking about it. He had to get through. He had to help her... them.
It crashed.
Metal flew everywhere. He scrinched as he saw the Star open up, making way for the Wing to come through.
It finally stopped, hitting the wall. Ronag got out, looking at the X wing, it was in tact. He smiled, perfect condition.
Holding his breath he moved out into the hall.
He closed his eyes. The image of the struggle was close, only a few feet off.
He ran, taking out his saber.
Inside the room all hell broke loose. Guards and his friends were at war. And in the back, the Emporer stood, his arms crossed, watching it all.
He walked up, the saber blazing.
No words were spoken, they both knew. They just knew.
The sabers flew, one of a bright green light, and the other of a pure darkness only evil could sumise. Soon, sweat was pouring over both their bodies.
Then suddenly, his saber went out.
"Stupid fool."
The Emporer kept up his attacks. Ronag left his saber floating in the air, as he blocked the attacks with pure force. He looked at the saber, it was still recharging.
The Emporer sliced cleanly, Ronag fell to the floor.
"Die Jedi..."
Ronag lifted up his arm, the saber flying to him. It was fully recharged. The wound on his side forgotten.
He stepped up, meeting the Emporer's stare.
"You didn't think it was over, did you?"
The fight continued...


Ganor turned around.
"Silver? Where were you?"
She walked up to him, putting her arms around his.
"I was waiting..."
Ganor thought to himself, waiting for what? He didn't know, but Silver was always sneaky like that.
"He is almost gone..."
Ronag could fell it too, The Emporer was weakening, even with his power, he was.
"That only leaves us," he smiled.
She kissed him, "It does..."
Ronag raised his eye brow, he knew what she meant then. He put his arms around her.
(Dude, I get that whole evil villan duo thing going on... lol Kick Ass).

 

[Renegade]

Zen

The battle went on when I noticed Ronag going after the Emperor. I smile at seeing he was ok but when Palpatine began to struggle to keep up with him I felt something. Ever since he entered my mind, I had been feeling very weird about everything.

That's when I hear Palpatines voice in my head, "Remember the truth..." It hits me hard as I take a few steps away from the scene to get my head straight. I notice that for some reason the Imperial Guardsmen were not taking this chance to finish me off.

At that moment, I hear the voice of Luke saying the same thing Palpatine said, "Remember the truth..." My hands hold onto my head as I kneel down as a vision forms in my head. Not just a vision, but a story...

<<<<<<<<MIND SEQUENCE>>>>>>>

I'm in a dark room by myself. I see a large screen that shows me things from my past. At least that's what I think...

The setting is on Dagobah, a month before the second movie took place. A young boy of ten years is seen with an elder looking male alien. The young boy is practicing with his master Yoda. The child is using his mind to lift several rocks into the air. Yoda has a look of pride and sadness.

Back in the room. Luke appears out of the darkness and asks me, "Do you remember this day, Zen?"

Smiling, I tell him "I remember this day, it was the day before Yoda sent me away with that rebel pilot. The rebel pilot was the son of someone he had known before the Empire took over. Yoda made the pilot promise that his family would raise me and that they would never tell anyone of my powers. He told me that another student was coming that he would need to give his full attention to. He said that one day I would join the rebellion to help train others like me."

Luke sighs as he tells me, "You're right and wrong about this one kid. I believed this when I first meet you and did until the day that Silver and Mask killed me. But it was not till the day I died and meet the other great Jedi masters that I learned the truth of what happened."

I listen on in disbelief, "What do you mean, Luke? Are you telling me that something about this story is wrong? You have to tell me!" My voice becomes louder, sweat falling down my face as I demand to know what he's talking about.

Luke tells me, "You will learn the secret of the lie that is your life, Zen. But I cannot be the one to tell you the truth. It would be best to learn the truth from the master that trained you to be who are are. I'll let him tell you the truth."

Luke takes a few steps back to allow another person enter the dark room. My master? Well that had to by Master Yoda. He was the one that trained me to be what I am today. But that would not be who I would see come out of that dark corner. My skin crawls when I hear that deep breathing as the Sith lord steps out of the darkness. I grit my teeth as Darth Vader makes his way towards me.

I jump back and yell to Luke, "What the hells going on here Luke? This some kind of trick by the Emperor?"

Again Luke talks, "I won't lie to you Zen. This is the Emperors doing but I have gotten involved in this because you do need to learn the truth. Now might not be the best time, but I will not let you live the lie anymore. My father can explain the rest."

Vader tells me, "Look into the screen and I will explain everything after you see the truth. I must warn you, after this happens, nothing will ever be the same for you again. Do you want to see this?"

Without a moment of hesitation, I tell him "Yes I do want to see this. I want to learn the truth about what I am."

Vader and Luke give each other a grim look as Vader tells me, "Then watch the screen, and you will see the truth. When the show is over, I will help clarify everything for you."

With that, I turned back to the screen and watch what is happening...

The setting is a few days before the third movie. I see two figures onboard the second Death Star battling with each other. No, not battling each otehr. It looks like they are training with each other. One of them is Vader and the other is wearing a black cloak with a black metal mask that only covered the top part of his head. The bottom part is not painted and appears to have a beard. They continue to battle for awhile until Vader gets the upper hand and takes down the second fighter.

Vader holds the saber to his throat as he tells him, "Not bad at all Mangler. You are indeed the best student that I have seen among the Emperors elite."

The one called Mangler stands up and tells him in a deep voice, "Well Mask is an idiot for one that is as expierenced as he is. What other students does the Emperor have ready for the future?"

Vader answers, "Well there are a few out there right now. Of course there is the Skywalker child that was captured years ago. He still needs a few more years but is coming along nicely."

Mangler asks, "Is it true that you wish for your son to join us? Do you think he will join?"

Vaders tone gets darker, "That, my student, is not something that you need to be concerned about. That is between the Emperor and I."

The doors open as a third voice adds, "That is very true my old friend."

The two Siths bow down to their master Palpatine. Palpatine tells Vader, "Please leave us my friend. We will be approaching our destination soon and I need to speak with our young friend alone."

Vader tells him, "As you command, my Emperor." Vader leaves the room as the doors close behind him, leaving the Emperor alone with Mangler.

Emperor tells him, "Rise my young friend. We have an important matter to talk about. You're master Vader does not know of the following that I must talk with you about."

Mangler rises from where he is kneeling and asks, "Why does he not know of this my Emperor?"

Palpatine tells him, "Because he is the reason that we must prepare for the worse. Vader wishes to turn young Skywalker and this can either be seen as an act of weakness or an act of brilliance. Incase it is an act of weakness, we must prepare for the possibility of Vader turning back to the light side."

Mangler interupts, "My master would never do such a thing. He has as much devotion to the Empire as I do."

The Emperor corrects him, "I'm affraid that he has become weaker. Him revealing to his son that he is his father was a sure sign of it. He had the chance to kill Luke and failed because of a moment of weakness. So I have come up with a plain for incase we fail in our final battle with the rebels."

Mangler asks, "And what is to by my part in this plan my Emperor?"

The evil lord tells him, "I will get to that. As you know, Vader is second in command of the Empire. If I die, he will become leader of the Empire. I'm afraid that I will die soon at the hands of Vader and his son if what I suspect is true. And if Vader does turn to the light side, then Darth Mask will become the leader of the Empire and that is fine... for now."

Mangler jumps in, "I know all of this already my lord. But what will happen to the Empire if you die? Mask is a great leader but is nothing compared to you."

A smile spreed across Emperors face, "That is very true. That is why, I have already made plans for me to be cloned and in the event of my death the clone will be given command of our hidden forces. I'm sure you don't know about them, not even Vader or Mask do at this time. Only my most loyal men know of it at this time. If I do die at the hands of Vader and his son, then Mask will be given control of the known forces of the Empire like planned."

Mangler jumped in, "And you will return in your new body? But you know that Mask wont give up his forces. You would have to kill him or he would be as much a threat as the Rebels. And it would take many of your own forces to stop him."

The Emperor tells him, "That is where you come in my young friend. Mask will definatly try to destroy the Rebels and when he does attempt this you must make sure that one or the other dies in this battle."

Mangler asked, "And how will I do this? Kill Mask from the inside of the Empire?"

The Emperor explains, "You will be dead by then. Mask will surely kill you since you were trained by Vader and he will suspect your treachery. But he has never seen you without your mask so if you went under cover with the rebels then you can make sure he dies."

Mangler tells him, "That would not work my lord. The jedi would be able to detect my thoughts of evil the moment I joined them."

A grin spreads over the Emperors face, "That is why your memory will be erased and you will be given false memorys to keep them off you trail. You will also be given a new name and attitude. But the determination to kill Mask and his pupils will still be your number one reason to live when the rebels find out about them. When the time is right, you will join us again. But I might have to have you killed while you're with them since your mind will be Jedi."

Mangler bows down to him, "I will make whatever sacrafice you wish of me, my lord."

Palpatine places his hand of the Siths shoulder, "I am proud to hear that my dear Mangler. Or should I now call you by your new name, Zen?"

And with that, the images end as the screen dissapears into the darkness again. I stand there, the shock settling into my mind at what I have just seen. This had to be a lie.

Turning back to Vader and Luke, I tell them, "Is this some sort of sick trick?"

Luke shacks his head, "I wish it was, Zen. But this is the truth that the Emperor wanted you to know about. But he wanted your jedi memorys to be erased when he did this so you would fully return to being the Sith that you are. My father and I will allow you to keep those Jedi memorys so that you will not turn fully back into a Sith. But the hate and anger that you had when you were a Sith will be back and you will become evil again when you return to the battle. It is with the Jedi memorys that you will have any chance of being good."

I think for a moment, trying to find something that would fight this story, "What about all of the things I knew about Dagobah and Yoda? I thought that the Empire didn't know he lived there?"

Vader explains, "They learned about it after Lukes battle with me. I had probed his mind during the battle and told the Emperor about Yoda. Yoda didn't die from old age, he had been infected with an airborn virus that the Empire let loose on Dagoboh just days before Luke returned. It was a virus that wiped out Yodas species years before and only infected his people. He never told Luke because of the fear that the anger would send him closer to the dark side. All images you got of him where just part of the Empires mind erasing to trick you."

Luke finishes, "And now Zen, you will return to your body with both your real Sith memorys and the false Jedi memorys in your mind. The choice on what path you will follow will be yours now. May the force be with you."

The world around me shifts and turns as I slowly leave this land I'm in and return to the Death Star.

<<<<<<<END OF SEQUENCE>>>>>>

I awaken inside of the Death Star with everything so clear to me yet, still so strange as well.

With my Sith memorys back, I grab the Saber that I thought was given to me by Yoda as a child. Turning it upside down, I push a hidden switch on it to turn the other end of the saber on. With a low hum, a red energy beam forms out of the other end. This was a blade given a blue Jedi light on one side and a red Sith light on the other.

Staying in my corner, I watch on as the battle continues. For the first time in my lives, I was not sure who I was supposed to join.

 

[Roland Gilliad]

ooc: Letz zee...it's been JUST ENOUGH Posts to do my Rambo Type thing involving the millinum falcon and the emporers office. *caaackles* heh heh heh, Unloading like 10 photon torpedos right at the office'll give that old fogey somthing to think about!

 

[Kepic]

Farlo

Imperial Guardsmen were selected from the best of the Stormtroopers, the strongest, quickest, most loyal of them all. I had only seen them once before, and had heard tales of their prowess in battle. But, knowing the Imperium, that might just be more of the empire's propoganda.

However, they fought like the veteran's they were said to be. Lightsabre's hummed and sparked as they struck against the force pikes. Behind the red-robed wall of guardsmen, Ronag had entered the fray, battling with the Emperor himself.

Standing alongside Kayla, Tawain and Sha'ara, Han and Lando firing their blaster covering us from being flanked, we traded blows with the Guardsmen. With the Starblade on our side, we began to drive them back.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Zen's blue blade flicker into life. I had seen him led on the ground when I entered - had we the time to check on his condition, then we would have done so. The Emperor however was not one to allow his enemies any idle moments.

"Zen!" I shouted, "are you alright?"

I didn't turn my head, concentrating on the Imperial Guardsmen before us, but I then saw something else in my peripheral vision - a red Sith lightsabre blade igniting beneath the blue Jedi one.

The Emperor

"You cannot hope to defeat me" the Emperor laughed in Ronag's face, as the Jedi's lightsabre ignited once more, recharged from the traded with the Fang, "why not join your brother and serve the Darkside? Zen has - Darth Mangler!" the Emperor called out, "now the Darkside shall surely triumph. Come, join the battle and we shall end the Jedi once and for all!"

 

[Renegade]

Zen

At that moment, the dark side of my existence was what fulled my motivation. Turning off the blue blade, I turn the saber around till the red one is ontop. My attention is turned from Farlo to Ronag who is battling with The Emperor. I can feel the temptation to help the Emperor moving though my body but I try to fight it with memorys of how Ronag helped me.

But it was no use right now. With a loud yell, I ran towards the Emperor and Ronag and delivered a swift kick to the Jedi's jaw. Ronag falls to the floor and looks back up at me in surprise. I bring the red saber to my side and prepare to battle him to the death for my Emperor.

 

[poohlive]

Ooc: I saw it, I saw it. Interesting. I first looked at it, and said to myself, oh no, another Skywalker... lol.
Thats good though, by far one of the best plot twists since... since... well, since a long time anyway.

Ronag looked at him in surprise.
"Zen?"
A smile entered his lips, but it wasn't Zen's, "I'm afraid not..."
Ronag dropped his eyes, "Mangler... so it is true. I was hoping it wasn't, from the first time I saw you. I had hoped it wasn't true..."
Mangler (do you want to be called mangler?) kicked him in the side, the same side the Emporer had recently hit.
Ronag wimpered.
"Just like your brother, don't you ever shut up?"
Ronag arose, a dead look in his eyes. He stared at the Emporer and then Mangler.
"Join us or die?"
Ronag lowered his head, " I can't. There is no bad in me, not enough to join the dark side anyway."
His saber shot out, it's piercing glow reflected off both their eyes.
The Emporer nodded his head, "Kill him."
Mangler stepped forward. Ronag looked around, everyone else was preocuppied. There was no help. It was just them...
He couldn't do it, he couldn't fight his friend, his once student.
"HE is no longer Zen," Ronag said to himself.
He blocked the attacks, parrying and dodging with a graceful ease, but it took a lot out of him. Sweat was pouring down from his face.
He leaped out of the way as a death blow pierced his clothing.
On his knees, Ronag slid away. He looked back at the two, laughing cruelly.
Ronag closed his eyes, breathing deeply.
How could he do this? His new fighting abilities are phenominal compared to his old ones. He was almost better than the Emporer himself. At least with the Emporer he got in a lucky shot now and then.
But this...
This was near impossible.
Mangler advanced upon him again.
Ronag centered himself, rising from the ground. His saber lay limp at his side.
Mangler aimed his saber high, "Better to take it this way, less pain."
Ronag nodded as the saber came down.
He rolled closer to him, hiting Mangler straight in the chest. He fell back.
Ronag set his feet on the ground, pointing his saber at the once great and noble Zen.
The man got up, wiping the sweat from his brow, this was in no way over...
oh no, it's just beginning ladies and gentleman.

 

[Moneytalks]

Silver Dread...

Oh yes... she was waiting... even now. She watched.

She sent out her mind... feeling Ganor... feeling... Ronag... and finally the Emperor. It was truly facinating... this power struggle she felt.

So close... not long now... a soft almost indefinable smile crossed her lips as she waited to see how the struggle would finally end.

OOC:... hmmm... was wondering why my other clothes were so muddy... [lol]

 

[Renegade]

Zen/Mangler

Smirking at Ronag, I try to fight the feelings I have to kill him. But I still wanted to end his life at the same time. I was now Mangler again, but the memorys of what I REALY went through as Zen were still strong in my mind. The friendships that I made, the people I helped to train into the proud warriors that are now fight the Imperial Guardsmen.

Madison... a single tear drops from my eye at the thought of the woman I loved. Love. A feeling that Sith are never meant to feel at all during their life. I turn back to see Kayla fighting with an Imperial Guardsman. The feeling of love was something I had been feeling for her lately.

Turning my attention back to Ronag, I see that he was watching me with some interest in my actions. I could tell he had probed my mind when I was feeling those emotions. Bringing my saber back to my side, I brush away the tear and tell him, "Let's finish this once and for all Jedi." Reluctantly, Ronag brought up his saber and prepared to battle.

keeping emperial guards off their back glancing back occasionally, seeing inner struggles. Zen looked different, I had so much to tell him, but for now I had to dice a few guards

Sha'ara

Sha'ara couldn't believe this was happening. She saw Zen with his Jedi/Sith Lightsaber. He was squaring off with Ronag. She had to do something while she had a chance. Stepping away from the Imperial Troops she placed herself between Zen and Ronag. "Zen, this stops now.. YOU do not belong on the dark side... I've seen too much good in you." For a moment Zen looked unsure of himself, then he looked into Sha'ara's with such fury that she nearly flinched away from him, but she managed to stand her ground. She looked right back into Zen's eyes.

OOC: Fantastic post Renegade!! Can't wait to see how it pans out.
