Sahbarik G'run sat in utter silence.
His eyes were closed and he sat in a lotus-position, hovering about a half meter above the ground.
His thoughts were a million miles away from his body.
He recalled the past, the present and sensed the future and the Force.
His Lambda-class shuttle was heading to a forgotten planet far, in an unknown area of the Outer Rim.
He would meet his master there, along with other Sith Lords, whom he did not know.
His master had only revealed a small part of the plans and a set of coordinates for him to follow.
He had obliged, but he had felt that this wasn't something his master usually told him to do.
He had boarded the shuttle at dawn at next morning along with a mysterious package his master had handed him.
Two months had passes since he left from Korriban and ever since he had meditated, impervious to anything that happened on his vessel.
His thoughts wondered deeper into his past.
A single memory, one that he would never forget appeared in front of him.
The scene was in his family's home in Coruscant, on the 123 flour of a partially demolished old skyscraper in the once flourishing Seventh Commercial District of his home planet.
He had been seven at that time, had blond hair and his eyes had the deep green color that almost resembled the exact shade and color of a deep lake one might find on Naboo. At that time he was already demonstrating physical and mental capabilities that exceeded almost everyone in his age.
This was due to the massive amount of midi-chlorians on his blood; however he did not know this. His foster parents were gone, as usual and he was alone, watching a boring cartoon on the Holonet.
It was that day, that our when a series of things happened that turned his life upside-down.
Suddenly the lights in their apartment went out, one by one. The screen buzzed and flickered and the characters became inaudible.
The Holonet, he didn't mind but the lights were something new.
That's when the he heard the buzz of their door. Perhaps a repair-droid, he thought.
Sahbarik was surprised. His parents would not have gotten home before the late evening and he had no friends invited. That ruled out almost everything except the droid but Sahbarik still couldn't suppress the strange feeling in his stomach.
With a slight mixture of fear and excitement he opened the door.
Even thought he was prepared for the unexpected, the large hooded figure with black robes that were intricately traced with blood red patterns surprised him, causing him to jump back.
The man let out a laugh, it was shrill and cold.
Then the man spoke, with his cape still on thus causing to little boy to be frightened even more.
His voice was smooth and deep, like a bass. It made Sahbarik feel calm and at peace.
"You are young," the man said.
Sahbarik did not answer, he was stunned.
The man shuddered and for a moment the boy thought he would collapse but the man spoke again, this time in a quicker, more urgent tone.
"Get your most prized possessions as fast as you can."
Sahbarik inclined to this request and in a matter of minutes he filled his bag with the meager amount of things he considered 'prized'.
He returned to the door.
The man placed to hands on his shoulder. "Come," he said and pulled the boy to the nearest turbolift at the end of the hallway.
Sahbarik examined the doors that lined both sides of the barren gray corridor; he felt the ungraspable feeling of change as they entered the lift. A slight gust caused the pieces of scrap and paper to wander further to one end of the corridor.
They entered the lift and zoomed down to the bottom of the structure.
The sun was setting and shone her golden rays over the surface giving everything a gold tint. Sahbarik's eyes had to adjust so he closed them and allowed his unknown guest to pull him towards his shuttle.
Just seconds later he heard the slight 'hiss' sound and he was lifted into a comfortable, cushioned seat.
Strange, he thought. He didn't feel the man's hands lifting him.
The strange feeling in his stomach returned as they rapidly ascended towards the sky and left the building that Sahbarik was never to see again.
The young man returned to present and realized that, with a feeling of nostalgia, that he was feeling the same feeling of change he had felt the day his fate changed….
