Ce'na woke up first. She looked around observing her area. She was in another prison cell. 'Great. This makes... 64?' She thought to herself as Jaesa was thrown into her cell. Jaesa groaned as Ce'na rushed to her side. Jaesa weakly opened up her eyes, obviously having a head injury of some sort after being unmercifully tortured. "V-vette?" She muttered weakly.
"Shh.. it's okay Jaesa." She put a finger to Jaesa's mouth. Jaesa weakly mumbled as Ce'na held her head. She looked up to see Broonmark, Quinn, and Pierce in the cell across from her and Jaesa.
Pierce eyed Jaesa. "She's going to make it. Right?" His deep voice showed some emotion. Finally Ce'na connected the lines, Jaesa and Pierce were lovers.
"Pierce." Quinn spoke up, he rarely called him by his name. "She'll make it. Vet-Ce'na. Comfort her. We'll have a plan."
Everyone nodded and Broonmark tried speaking Basic for the first time. "I. Hope. Sith. Live."
Pierce stood up and slapped Broonmark on the back, "Darth Tythorns is alive. I know he is. After fighting with him throughout the galaxy, our Sith is alive."
"We. Clan. We. Sith. Clan. We. Fight. One." Broonmark tried to speak and everyone encouraged him to continue practicing.
Jaesa heard these words and muttered loud enough for everyone to hear, "We... fight as.. one."
"Shhh, you need to rest Jaesa." Ce'na said while watching her. Two Knights of Zakuul walked past dragging two Sith lords wearing similar armor; one in black, the other in red. The Knights threw Marr into the cell with Ce'na and Jaesa while they threw Asthidal into his own cell all the way at the end. He was scarred. He was scorched like he was electrocuted. Vette's blood froze. Her heart stopped beating, and started pounding. She could feel his pain with her growing abilities. She could feel the mental anguish, and it made her blood begin to heat up. She felt a growing wave of emotion, and she couldn't hold it in any longer. Asthidal Tythorns, her husband, her lover, is gravely hurt. She let out a scream.
Asthidal woke up. He was in a rocky area. "Where am I..."
"You're in your mind, Wrath." Valkorion spoke as he stood next to Asthidal in a proud stance with his shoulders back, and hands behind his back.
"Why are we in.. my mind. Why are YOU in my mind."
"I'm apart of you. After you impaled me, I chose your body as my next host." Valkorion looked at Asthidal.
"What happened to me.." Asthidal turned around and looked up to see an asteroid like field.
"Your mind is fractured, after you killed me my son and daughter tortured you for hours. You never gave in, and you binded my powers to your will rendering me... useless." Valkorion chuckled at the irony.
Asthidal became dizzy and after seeing flashes of bright light, he heard Valkorion say, "You'll take the throne soon."
He collapsed soon after, his eyes closing. He heard screams. He weakly opened his eyes. He struggled to sit up. Ce'na looked at him and shouted, "Asthidal!"
Marr spun around, "Tythorns. Can you hear us." Asthidal nodded weakly.
"I.. I absorbed him. I have his power."
Marr narrowed his eyes and looked towards Ce'na then back at Asthidal.
"What does he want." Marr eyed Asthidal.
Asthidal looked up at Marr, "For me to take the Throne. He wants me to be the next Emperor."
Marr looked at Ce'na then back to Asthidal. Asthidal soon spoke up, "How long was I out for?"
"Two days." A voice at the end of the hallway spoke up. It was Arcann's sister, Vaylin. She looked around and saw everyone stand up regardless if they were injured or not. "The Emperor wants you all in his throne room." She eyed Asthidal and squinted at him eyeing his figure. Droids soon came in and opened the cells and escorted everyone except Asthidal. Vaylin prodded Asthidal to keep moving. Soon she began to slow down, and grabbed Asthidal. She took off his mask and looked at him. She shoved her tongue down his mouth and pulled him in closer running her hands down his armor. "I may enjoy you if my brother lets you live..." She smirked and gave him another kiss, except this time it was a peck on the lips. She placed his mask back on, as he weakly pulled his hood back over his head. She pushed him forward and continued to the Throne Room.
A voice, who was Valkorion, spoke to him in his head, 'My daughter lusts for you. She can sense your power.'
'I won't fall for her. I'd rather kill her than be her slave.'
'I count on it my dear Wrath.'
The two reached the group as Arcann stood up from his throne. He eyed his twin brother, Thexxan who looked at the group observing them. "He's the one who killed Father." He spoke as he was eyeing Asthidal.
Asthidal said nothing as Vaylin approached Asthidal from behind and wrapped his arms around his chest. "I think he's quite nice. Powerful, handsome, such a toy for me!" She gleamed with pride. Ce'na could feel Asthidal's anger burn. Valkorion was right, she was quite powerful.
Arcann looked at Thexxan who then spoke up, "I'll take... you." He pointed at Jaesa. Asthidal's anger grew like a raging inferno.
Arcann looked at Vette then back at Asthidal, "I'm a man of my word. I'll take your wife as a trophy."
'My Wrath, you can stop this. Use my powers. Use my knowledge. Change things for your destiny.' Valkorion mellowed.
'I will not.' Asthidal watched as Arcann walked over to Ce'na and leaned in. Vaylin walked up behind Asthidal and began rubbing his armored shoulders.
'Then watch what my sons and daughter do to your companions.'
Thexxan observed Jaesa as Arcann firely brought his mouth closer to Ce'na's, embracing her. Asthidal began to break down. Valkorion continued repeating his words. Asthidal pushed Vaylin off and she began to chuckle. "My my. You're all full of energy aren't you."
Thexxan began touching Jaesa as she moaned, her body betraying her. Vette looked up at Arcann as he pulled away. Her eyes were full of hatred and fury. Arcann smirked again and pulled her closer, kissing her deeper again.
Asthidal fell to his knees internally, 'Just help me stop them...' He heard Valkorion chuckling then started laughing. Soon he felt as if he was floating in his mind. Numerous powers bestowed upon him. He collapsed in Vaylin's arms as he couldn't stand up any longer, everything turning to a soft distant echo as she carried him to a room.
