Chapter 6: Hunting in Felucia

In Felucia...

An Imperial Shuttle arrived in the planet's atmosphere and when the ramp lowered Lady Shade jumped out and landed safely on a big mushroom plant.

Zachary contacted Lady Shade in her comlink.

"I'm tracking your location."He stated. "Just ahead you should find a hollow fungus tower, you'll need to make your way through it."

Then the Imperial Shuttle took off as Lady Shade walked around the mushroom ascent with her lightsabers out.

The sounds that were only heard were the Sith Lady's footsteps and the creatures that were flying above.

Suddenly a party of Jungle Felucians ambushed Lady Shade as she made her way to the mushroom ascent, slowing her down as she mowed through their villages in search of Ti.

"A jedi's hand at work."Lady Shade muttered. "It's not hard to tell who it is..."

The Sith Lady began to attack the Felucians using her dark abilities as she went deeper into the forest.

When a rancor appeared from the dead plants, the Sith Lady easily killed it with her lightsabers and force lightning.

Once Lady Shade arrived to the Ancient Abyss, she saw Shaak Ti waiting in meditation as she drew closer to her.

"Shaak Ti at last."Lady Shade whispered coldly as she stood in a fighting stance while holding her blood red lightsabers.

"Welcome, Shade."Shaak Ti said as she stood up and activated her lightsaber. "Are you prepared to meet your fate?"

Shaak Ti and Lady Shade engaged each other first with a test of their respective Force abilities.

Batting aside each of the Sith's telekinetic attacks with ease, Shaak Ti attacked Shade using swift strikes with her lightsaber.

Using the force to cause the Sith Lady to fall to the ground, Ti called upon her people to attack Lady Shade, but end up being no match for her.

Defeating the warriors one-by-one, Lady Shade was lured by the Jedi Master deeper into the Abyss.

Shaak Ti's mastery over the sarlacc became evident as she commanded it to slam its massive tentacles down around Lady Shade.

As their lightsaber duel intensified, the Sith Lady was having difficulty keeping up with the Master Jedi's strikes, barely countering them.

"Aren't you ashamed of what you done?"Shaak Ti asked.

"What do I have to be ashamed of?"Lady Shade scoffed. "All of you jedi scum deserved to die that includes you!"

As their duel took them into the tentacles of the sarlacc, Lady Shade was forced off as the sarlacc attacked her.

While Lady Shade was on the ground, Shaak Ti ran along a tentacle, intent on killing the the Sith Lady.

However, Lady Shade turned around at the last minute, catching Shaak Ti off balance and ravaging her body with Force lightning.

She then electrified the tentacles of the sarlacc which flung Shaak Ti high into the air.

Shaak Ti badly landed on the ground causing her lightsaber to roll away and go where Lady Shade stood.

"Not so tough as you used to be, huh Ti?"Lady Shade asked cruelly.

"Look at yourself, you were once a child filled with better hopes in life and now your just another slave of the dark side."Shaak Ti admitted as she weakly stood up.

"I was more of a slave to you, corrupted scum."Lady Shade replied in a cold tone.

"You poor thing, you could've been someone so much better."Shaak Ti admitted.

Then the mortally injured Jedi Master purposefully flung herself into the mighty sarlacc's pit, her body engulfed by a blinding blue light.

Behind her mask, Lady Shade showed no emotion and simply walked away from the Ancient Abyss.

The last member of the Jedi Council was now dead, but there was still a few more old tasks to finish off and there was no doubt they were to remain hidden in the galaxy forever.
