Welcome readers! I apologize for the long time. I had some huge research paper due. I do not intend for this chapter to be long. This may or may not be the final chapter of this story, so you might get to know our narrator's actual identity. Speaking of our narrator, their ready to get started.
DISCLAMER: Ahem… I do not own Jedi Knight Jedi Academy. That's just how it is people, we have to deal with it. Also the book thief is Markus Zusak
Your turn narrator...
Ah, hello again. This may be the last time we speak with each other. If so allow me say it has been a pleasure telling this story. I find this story quite meaningful. I do so hope you are understanding it well. But enough of my rambling, it is time for the conclusion of Rosh's memories.
Rosh had been fighting with his anger and his conscience. The thought of attacking his friend, no! His enemy! No! Which was which? Who was Jaden in his eyes? Was she weak and his rival, or was she strong and the person that could save him?
It was obvious to Alura and Tavion of Rosh's inner battling. They knew he was about to break. But being the cunning women that they were, they would find a way to manipulate this to their advantage.
Although the women would never admit it, they feared the only thing that could end their plan, was a young girl by the name of Jaden Korr. She was strong in the force, and could not be corrupted by any one. Except Rosh.
Yes they accepted that fool into their training. They knew he was no good. However, they knew they could use him to get at the Korr girl. When they encountered one another, it seemed to go as they hoped. Now that she was betrayed by him, they could use her emotions against her. It would cause a great advantage for the disciples of Ragnos.
All they had to do was scare Rosh well enough to get him to go back to the light. But how could this be done without being obvious…?
How about killing a few innocent lives right before the boy's eyes? If he fears death, and sees it happen to those who did not deserve it, should it not work?
And it did. Rosh's fear came at an uproar. His mother came into him mind, then his friend. Both excepting him with all his mistakes and failures, and then, they slowly disappeared, and Rosh felt the cold darkness around him. He felt ill, and just like Tavion and Alura wanted, Rosh caved in. The moment after he sent the message, was the moment they captured him.
Now the final stage. The fall of Jaden Korr.
Jaden fought for her life through all those dark Jedi, just to reach Rosh.
And now my friend, we come to the climax of this part of the story. Jaden choosing to save Rosh or to kill him.
Meeting again after their last fight
Jaden: ROSH!
Rosh: Jaden.
J: You don't look like much of a captive Rosh. Did you dream this up, or was it Tavion's idea?
R: No Jaden wait! I was wrong. Please, take me back to the academy. I need help.
(Jaden approaches with anger in her eyes; light saber turned on and gripped tight)
R: Jaden stay back! Please don't hurt me.
J: YOU TRIED TO KILL ME! AND NOW YOU'VE LURED ME INTO A TRAP!
R: I was scared. You have to believe me, we're friends remember? Let's get outta here before Alura comes back.
(Jaden charges, Rosh jumps back. Rosh trips over himself, Jaden closes in)
J: How do I know you won't betray me again? YOU'RE ALWAYS TRYING TO BEAT ME! How do I know this isn't just another trick?
Kyle :( through the force) Jaden don't do it.
Alura: Finish him Jedi!
(Jaden is closing in. Rosh is backing into a crate)
R: WAIT! Listen to what you're saying. You're… you're angry. Don't give into it! That leads to the dark side right?
(Jaden shoves Rosh against the crate. Jaden stares Rosh down, making him squirm)
Kyle: He only fell to the dark side because he was scared. Afraid of dying. PUT AWAY YOUR SABER.
(Jaden throws Rosh to the ground. Rosh carefully gets up)
Alura: Strike him down. GIVE INTO YOUR ANGER!
Kyle: Jaden your better than that. DON'T GIVE INTO YOUR ANGER! ROSH IS TELLING THE TRUTH.
Jaden stayed in her stance. She pondered all that was laid out before her. This was her friend, he betrayed her, and now he was begging for forgiveness. But this was the opportunity she was waiting for. It was her choice, and she made it.
Jaden deactivated her light saber. She asked for his forgiveness from her anger. He was just happy to have a friend again.
Alura out raged by this, knew what had to be done. After trading threats from the Korr girl, she struck with her newly learned skills.
The two were evenly matched. Until it happened. Alura had cut Rosh's are clean off. Vengeance flashed in Jaden's eyes. The battle became more intense.
Time passed, and Jaden was victorious. Immediately she helped her friend, and made sure he was brought to safety. After it was all over, Jaden would meet up with Rosh, and fix the burned bridges between them.
And now my friend, this is the end.
Me: Wow. I can't believe it is over.
Narrator: Nether can I.
Me: You know what it is time for now? It is now time to reveal our narrator. Our narrator is an old wise Jedi Master. His name is… Rosh Penin, at age 54.
Narrator: Yes it is.
Me: So care to tell the readers how things when with you and Jaden?
Rosh: We've been the best of friends for as long as I can remember. I even grew to love her.
Me: Is that the same way with her?
Rosh: Yes. It is. I am very greatful that someone like her is in my life.
Me: Awwww. Well I guess that's all for now. Thank you all for reading this. I guess this is my last stories from the past. Unless someone throws me an idea. But again thank you! :)
