"I will not bargain with a sith," the jedi grandmaster said.
"Look, Jade, I just want the holocrons, the artifacts, and to be left alone." I replied. I could not believe my plan had worked so well, alone in the council chambers with the most powerful woman in the galaxy.
"And let the Sith order rise again?" The red heads hand was at her side, ready to draw her sabre once the small talk ended. "You know what my answer is, I will not let my galaxy face another rebellion."
"There is no order, there will never be another order, so give me the items." She drew her lightsaber and activated it, the green blade hummed to life. "Come now Jade, did this dance on Korriban."
She swung her blade at me, I jumped back and activated my crimson saberstaff. We were once again dead even, her barrage of attacks against my perfect defense. She jumped back and attempted to push me with the force, I pushed back, neither of us gave an inch in our invisible battle. The power had nowhere to go and blasted in all directions. We were thrown against the walls and the windows, windows that are reinforced against the a speeder collision, shattered to bits.
"Well Jade, it's been fun.' I stood up and braced myself for what was coming. An explosion rocked the temple, and right outside the window a starship rose, ramp down.
"What!" Jade exclaimed, "Our fight was a distraction?"
"Yeah, but it was still fun." A blaster turret descended from the ship and fired at Jade, her lightsaber was a blur, just barely saving her. I jumped on to the ramp, "Have a nice day," I said with a bow, the ramp closed and we flew away.
Later in hyperspace we looked at our loot, "Every holocron the jedi have ever found, Marka Ragnos's weapons and armor, Ieldis's sword, and at least 20 different lightsabers. Okay just how did you manage this?"
"Good teaching," replied my apprentice.
