Chapter 7

"So...you have failed me."said Darth Scorpius

He sat on his throne with his apprentice Darth Starkiller by his side

Starkiller was pale skinned and muscular. He wore a sleeveless red shirt with metal covering on it.

He also wore black gloves and metal gauntlets on his bare fore arms. On his head he wore a red hood but the most distinguishable trait was his yellow eyes showing his connection to the dark side of the force.(Starkiller dark apprentice appearance)

"Skywalker was more powerful than we thought."said the seventh sister"

"You shouldn't have underestimated him but tell me,have you found any information on his Rebel Alliance?"

"No."

"Than this assignment I gave you was a waste of time. And here I thought you were powerful warriors."

The seventh sister and the fifth brother clenched their teeth in anger

"We may have not gained any information on the rebels but I do have something ito share about skywalker."said Vader

"What?"asked Scorpius

"When we were fighting I mentioned the death of his master Obi Wan caused him to use his anger. His eyes were yellow showing his connection to the dark side. And oh how it was strong with him."

Scorpius got up from his throne

"Interesting."he said smiling

"What are you thinking master?"asked Starkiller

"If what Vader said is true then Skywalker might be of use to us."

He walked towards Vader and the inquisitors

"I'm going to send you all on an assasination attempt on Skywalker again,to see if he truly is powerful or if it was just a matter of luck that he survived."said Scorpius

"No! I'm finished working with partners. SKywalker is my prey alone. I'll hunt him down by myself!"cried the fifthe brother

As he turned to walk away Scorpius said,"I was afraid you would say that."

He then shot a blast of force lightning at the fifth brother

"AAAAAHHHHH!"the fifth brother cried

After about 1-2 minutes Scorpius stopped

The fifth brother laid dead

The seventh sister gasped

Scorpius turned to her

"I apologize for what I had to do but I don't take defiance well."he said

Scorpius went to Vader

"You have served me well but you are nothing but a old dark copy of a sith lord. And copies are not as good as the original."said Dath Scrorpius

He then thrust his hand out and shot force lightning at Vader destroying the dark incarnation

"Master you killed most of the assassins you were going to send to destroy skywalker."said Starkiller

"No my apprentice. You and the seventh sister will come with me." said Scorpius

They followed scorpius to the the prison cells

He pressed the code to open one cell

In the cell they saw an male alien

His arms and legs were bound to the wall

The male alien was shirtless and muscular

His whole body color was red.

His face and body was covered in black tattoos

He also had horns on head and had robotic legs

Starkiller gasped

"Darth Maul..."he said

"Yes. This is indeed Darth Maul."said Scorpius

" How is he still alive?"asked Starkiller

"My master sidious didn't kill him. Instead he kept him for interrogation. Maul then escaped him but he was able to find him again. Maul has been in our captivity ever since."

"Heh heh heh. So what do I owe this visit?Is Sidious having me moved to another cell again?"asked Maul

"No. Sidious is dead"

"I see. Of course I was left in the dark no pun attended."said Maul looking at the dark cell.

"I am the new sith lord Darth Scorpius. This is my apprentice Darth Starkiller."said Scorpius

"Well have you come to kill me?"asked Maul

"No I'm not."

"Well that is strange. Aren't you going against the Rule of Two if you won't kill me?"

"I do not consider you a sith lord Maul."said Scorpius

"Heh heh heh. Oh really? Sidious considered me one."

"You were not that fully trained in the sith arts. Sidious had you trained as an assassin. But now I have a proposition for you."

"What kind of proposition?"

"I want you to join this inquisitor and my apprentice to hunt down and kill Luke Skywalker and his companions."

"Skywalker? I know of him. A legendary jedi he was."
"The skywalker you're possibly thinking of is Anakin Skywalker his father. THis is Luke Skywalker but he is just as powerful as him. Now..will you accept?"

Maul thought it over

"Fine." he said

Scorpius lifterd his hand

Maul was then released and dropped to the ground

He then got up

"It has been so long since I've been free."he said

They then walked out of the cell

"Here."said Scorpius

He handed Maul two lightsabers

One was a double bladed lightsaber and the other was black saber

"I thought I lost these lightsabers."said Maul

I repaired your saber staff(Double bladed lightsaber) since it had been sliced in half and I was able to find the dark lightsaber on your home planet Dathomir."said Scorpius

Darth Maul then put the lightsabers into his sides

"I will also have one more to join you."said Darth Scorpius

As if on cue a female Twi'lk alien (The alien the jedi aayla secura is) approached them

Her skin was the same as darth maul's along with the same tattoos

She wore tight black pants and tight black gloves covering her arms

And she wore only a bra on her upper body reveling her body

"Her name is Talon. She will be your ally."said Scorpius

Talon bowed

"I am honored."she said

The four dark side warriors followed Darth Scorpius back to the throne room

"You have all been briefed at what you must do. Now go and hunt Skywalker down along with his remember,I don't take failure lightly." he said

As the 4 left Darth Scorpius thought in his mind

"We'll see just how powerful you are Skywalker..."

Meanwhile,later that same day after leaving the village where they encountered Vader nd the inquisitors Inuyasha,Luke and the others went to Kaede's village to rest

Luke,Han,Leia,and Chewbacca were acquainted to Kaede and welcomed into her home

As they ate dinner Luke declined and went into another room to meditate

As he meditated he heard the others about to go to sleep

He closed his eyes.

Remembering how he channeled the dark side during their fight he closed his eyes ad tried to meditate to calm himself

Everything was silent

Suddenly Luke felt a presence,multiple presences.

Luke looked up and turned right there he saw an old man in jedi robes. He had white hair and a white berd

"Ben?"he asked

Obi Wan(Ben)Kenobi smiled

"Hello Luke."he said

Luke turned to his left finding an short,old green alien

"Master Yoda?"

"Yes. I it is."he said

Luke then looked into the middle

He saw a young man walk through the door

He had medium length brown hair,a scar over his right eye,a muscular build,and a metal arm

Although he looked different Luke recognized him

"Father?"he asked

Anakin Skywalker smiled and nodded

"Hello my son."he said

Luke looked at the three men responsible for his growth as a jedi

"I can't believe you're all here! I haven't seen you guys since Endor!"Luke cried

"Yes it has been quite a while Luke but we would like to actually talk about a serious matter with you."said Obi Wan

"Close to the dark side,you were today."said Yoda

"Yes I felt it but all jedi were close to the dark side before right?"asked Luke

"Yes but back then there were thousands of other jedi to help them overcome it but the only jedi left now is you."said Obi wan

"Come here to aid you we have."said Yoda

"Listen Luke,you must be strong when being tempted to the dark side. Resist its yourself and reject it."said Anakin

"That's what I've been trying to do. Why do you think I went to meditate?It was just that your dark incarnation,Vader, goaded me. He mentioned how he struck down Ben. I just lost it when he said it."said Luke

"I know it's hard. Believe me I've been there. When my mother,your grandmother, was killed by Tusken Raiders many years ago, I slaughtered a whole tribe of them. I regretted it ever since."said Anakin

"That I remember. Felt it through the force I had. Be strong you must to resist to dark side. A path of pain and destruction it is."said Yoda

"Yoda is right Luke. Trust us, it is not worth taking."said Obi Wan

"It might give you some power but..."began Anakin

Anakin's form flickered and turned to Darth Vader

"...it consumes you. It corrupts you and makes you lose your humanity."Anakin finished

He then turned back to his original form

"What should I do then?"asked Luke

"Clear your mind you must. Meditate and stay in tune with the light even in battle."said yoda

"I understand."

"Now we must leave you Luke. Good luck with your journey my son."said Anakin

"And may the Force be with you always."said Obi Wan

All of a sudden the three of them disappeared leaving Luke alone
