Chapter 1: The Perfect Opportunity
I stood at the window of my star destroyer, watching the battle in place below. The mighty Sith armada was crushing the weak Republic ships, attempting to defend themselves. It would be a glorious victory for the Sith; and it would be mine! I would become the new Sith Lord once Revan was dead. It was all so simple, I watched the Jedi vessel board the Gorgon, my master would be preoccupied with defending her ship to worry about her apprentice betraying her.
The Jedi were foolish to think that they could destroy both Darth Revan and Darth Malak and rid the galaxy of us. How their masters convinced them to join the Jedi, I'll never know. Stupid idiots, blindly following their masters to certain death, truly believing that they would be the ones to destroy the Sith. The Sith will never be destroyed, for we survive by destroying our predecessors, only the most powerful live to be Sith Lord. Only those that know that if you want to rule the galaxy, you do so by force.
I used the force to see what my master was doing; Revan was fighting a group of Jedi. I looked further back and saw more coming, accompanied by famous Jedi Bastila Shan. It was then that I realised that I must act then. I could destroy both Revan and Bastila. Then, I would be Sith Lord and the Republic would lose a valuable player. For without Bastila, the Republic couldn't use her Battle Meditation against my ships. A pity I couldn't take her as my apprentice, but it was better to destroy her so that no one could have her power. I withdrew from my force vision and turned to the admiral.
"Admiral, focus all your fire on the bridge of the Gorgon" I commanded in my robotic voice
"But that is our own ship sir!" the admiral protested "We can't fire on our own flagship Lord Malak"
What a fool! I thought before using the force to choke the pathetic excuse for an admiral "I do not like this new defiance in you admiral, I am afraid it has gone too far" I said slowly
Then I watched as the admiral slowly, and painfully, choked to death. When it was over I tossed him to one side with disgust, he was a man of ambition, yes, but he didn't have the power required to be useful.
"Troopers, clean up this mess" I spat, crinkling my nose at the corpse on the floor "Karath, come here. You are now Admiral. Fire at the bridge of the Gorgon before it is too late"
Karath quickly followed orders, afraid that I may turn on him. I turned to the window again and watched the missiles head toward my master's ship and blow up. I smiled at my betrayal, imagining Revan getting blown to pieces, hoping that her death was slow. I laughed at the thought. Then, I turned away and headed to my chambers, enjoying the feeling of killing my master and wishing that I could have witnessed the moment. I was the Sith Lord and I had the full power of the Dark Side in my hands, not to mention the fury of the Star Forge.
