Chapter 1
The Sacrifice
The sirens went off, and then the base began to shake as the sith commenced the bombing of the base. My name is Cyrus Satoe and I am a Jedi padéwan and my master's name is Sato Star. I ran out of my room and into the corridor in full armour and Jedi robe with my double-bladed lightsaber, towards the control room where I could find out what we were up against.
When I reached the control room, I found out that we were up against 3 sith interdicters that were already sending out landing parties. I also saw Master Sato standing by the door waiting for me.
He said, "If you are ready to fight, then go and get commander Saw and meet me in the hanger."
"Yes master," I replied.
As I turned my back to run and get ready he said, "Oh… and Cyrus."
"Yes, master?" I replied turning my attention back towards him.
"Be prepared to fight lord Denaloc and his apprentice Tharook," he warned me.
"Yes Master" I replied, walking out off the room to go and find Commander Saw.
20 Minutes later
The commander and I were running down corridor B, when we saw an advancelanding party heading towards us.
"Take cover!" The commander shouted, rolling out of the way of incoming fire.
I ignited both sides of my lightsaber and bounced back a few blaster rifle shots. I raced towards them, adding the Force to my jump as I literally flew over the one trooper and stabbed him in the back. Harnessing the Force again, I pushed the captain of the party into the wall, rendering him unconscious.
The commander took a few shots and hit all his targets and then shouted at me, "Let's keep going before more come"
We arrived just in time, as we saw Master Sato with his lightsaber ignited and his men set up in tactical positions and were ready to fight. We approached my master.
I asked, cautiously, "How soon will they be here?"
He replied, "Soon"
"My dear Cyrus, I fear that I may not survive this battle so, when I say, run."
"Yes master" I replied, even though I wanted to do no such thing.
Then I saw the landing parties, 3 transport ships heading our way. When they landed the troopers hit the ground running, firing their blaster rifles. It was a big fire fight and then we saw them lord Denaloc and Tharook, we ignited our lightsabers and raced towards them at full speed. Lord Denaloc had a double-bladed lightsaber and Tharook had a single-bladed lightsaber.
I was the one to attack first as I attempted to jab from behind, but he counted as he spun around he trying to use Force lighting on me but I deflected it back. Master Sato did the same, but as he jumped over, when he was above Denaloc he attempted to stab him in the head, but he counted with a swing of his lightsaber and then Force pushed him away. We fought for a bit more, then Master Sato told me to run and so I did without question, but then I wonder wondered how he could win,
So without reconsidering, I tossed my lightsaber to him and shouted, "Master!"
At that moment, he jumped up and grabbed the lightsaber without hesitating and ignited both ends. I stood for a moment and marvelled at how he fought them off, in the end he had cut lord Denaloc's face and stabbed him, but unfortunately not fatally. Just then, Tharook did the same thing that Master Sato had done but was too powerful for him and Master Sato was stabbed in the chest.
"Nooooo!" I screamed as I turned and ran.
I managed to get inside the ship and I watched as Tharook approached Denaloc.
"She got away master" Tharook said, with anger in his voice.
"No, they did not", he replied.
"You aren't fit to lead the sith!" Tharook shouted in anger.
"What?" Denaloc exclaimed, surprised by his apprentice's outburst.
"Your reign has ended…" Tharook cut Denaloc's head off without remorse, "…and mine has just begun"
