The Rise of Starkiller

Inquisitor Acquisition

Guten Tag mein freundes, how are you all doing? I'm back with another chapter for the Rise of Starkiller! This one is an original script as well.

A/N: A big thank you to Burke23 for helping me with a name for the Seventh Sister, we are naming her Sunev; which is Venus spelled backwards. Why you may ask? Because Venus is the planet closest to the sun, Sunev is Venus spelled backwards making it the farthest away from the sun (obviously this is a just a clever wordplay Burke23 came up with, and when he puts his mind to something he is GOOD.)

Aboard the Bain of the Phantasms…..

Commander Sato was electrified by Starkiller's Sith lightning, throwing him back against the cell wall.

"You have been rather uncooperative Commander." Starkiller chuckled as he zapped him again, "All you have to do is give me the location of your terrorist cells and I will end you quick and painlessly."

"Go to hel…." Sato murmured before receiving an extra dose of lightning, courtesy of Starkiller.

"Tsk tsk", Starkiller taunted Sato, "Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?"

A Stalker Soldier walked into the cell and bowed before Starkiller.

"Milord, we have a message from Darth Vader, he is requesting your presence on the bridge."

"Tell him that I will be there shortly." Starkiller ordered as he electrocuted Sato one last time.

When the trooper left, Starkiller leaned in towards Sato, "Consider yourself lucky, for your sake you better be more talkative when I return."

The Dark Assassin made his way to the cruiser's bridge, his men saluting him as he walked by. As he entered the bridge, Major Kingston walked beside him to fill him in.

"Milord, Lord Vader wishes to speak with you", Kingston stated, "We have him on hold."

"Patch him through, Kingston." Starkiller ordered; the second in command complied and hit some controls, pulling up a hologram of Vader.

Starkiller kneeled before it.

"What is thy will, my master?"

"Your presence is expected on the Executor, the Emperor has selected two Inquisitors for you to test, fail and you die, succeed and their fate is in your hands."

"Very well, master", Starkiller nodded respectfully, "Which do I face first?"

"Both."

"Both at once?" Starkiller asked with a chuckle, "Sounds like my kind of fight."

Vader was pleased that his apprentice welcomed more destruction and risk without even hesitating.

"The Emperor himself will be watching, do not disappoint him." Vader stated firmly.

The hologram faded.

"Set a course for the Executor, Kingston." Starkiller ordered the Major, "And prepare a welcoming guard for when I return."

"Yes milord." Kingston nodded, "Your confidence is to be admired."

Starkiller didn't like it when his men complimented him unnecessarily, but it seems to have become a habit.

"Resume interrogating Sato", Starkiller ordered, "If he hasn't cracked by the time I return, we'll go to plan B."


Aboard the Executor

The Emperor stood at the bridge; which had been cleared out completely in light of the upcoming fight, Vader was the only other person present. After a few minutes the doors opened, a male and a female Inquisitor walked in, the female had her double bladed lightsaber clipped to her belt instead of her back like her male compatriot did. The female was of Mirialan species, her eyes had black sclera and a yellow color; Mirialans always had this eye color when converting to the ways of the Sith. The male was of unknown species, he possessed a pair of milky gray eyes with slit pupils that he seemed to be incapable of blinking; instead he blinked with a second set of eyelids that were underneath the outer layer, like a reptile. The male was as bulky and well-built as Zeb if not more so, and seemed to possess a somewhat confident air about him.

The two kneeled before the Emperor.

"Milord, you honor us with your presence", the Mirialan said respectfully to the robed Sith, "How may we serve thee?"

"You and the Fifth Brother have been summoned here to prove your worth", Sidious said in his raspy voice, "Succeed and you will advance in this Empire and play a role in the rebel alliance's demise."

"We are honored, my liege." The Fifth Brother said in a gruff voice.

"You two will face my assassin, Darth Starkiller." Vader stated.

"Forgive me milord", the Seventh Sister spoke up, "But I have never heard of this 'Darth Starkiller."

"That's because the people outside of the Empire rarely survive to speak of him." Vader replied, "Kill him, and the rewards will be boundless, fail and your fate will be decided by him."

"We will not fail you." The fifth brother said.

"Where can we find this Starkiller?" the Seventh Sister asked.

"You are mistaken, I didn't summon you here to assign you the mission, I've summoned you here so I could watch you fight." The Emperor chuckled as the sound of a blast door opening came from behind the two Inquisitors.

The Assassin walked in, his helmet on and hands ready to draw his sabers. He was taller than the Seventh Sister but was shorter than the fifth brother; whom much like Vader was a tank. He kept walking until he was within earshot of the Inquisitors.

"Kill him." Vader ordered calmly.


The Brother and Sister drew their blades while the Dark Apprentice drew two lightsabers and ignited them, one was black, the other red; he gripped them in the art of Shien.

The three combatants eyed each other, slowly pacing around the spacious bridge, waiting to see who would make the first move. The Mirialan of the three went for the first strike with a force powered dash at Starkiller, she swung he saber; which was in single blade mode, at the assassin but it was easily deflected. The brother followed his comrade's lead and attacked Starkiller from the side.

The target was ready however and force pushed the bulky alien back with relative ease. The Brother and Sister moved beside each other, eyeing the assassin.

"Is this your best?" Starkiller asked.

"No." The seventh sister stated as she raised her hand outward.

"This is." The Fifth Brother finished and raised his hand as well.

A combined force blast was sent Starkiller's way, knocking him upward into the ceiling, but his clawed hands dug in with ease, breaking the impact and dropping back down, landing on his feet. The Inquisitors rushed him, the male swung at his stomach while the female swung at his back. Starkiller blocked both with one lightsaber each; a stalemate was obvious.

The Emperor chuckled at the duel, violence always pleased him. Vader remained silent and still as a statue.

Starkiller released a wave of energy from his body, knocking his adversaries back; he then went on the offensive and targeted the brother. The Fifth Brother switched his saber to double blade mode upon seeing the assassin's attack. The two male Sith exchanged blows and parries until the Seventh Sister jumped at the Assassin in an attempt to surprise him. Starkiller kicked the Mirialan away with incredible force, knocking her into the wall before turning his attention back to the Fifth Brother.

The assassin parried the reptilian humanoid's saber upwards, allowing him to unleash Sith lightning on his exposed chest. The torrent weakened him enough to be thrown through the air and beside his Mirialan partner. Starkiller then walked towards the two Inquisitors who got up, but barely.

The two had enough energy to resume the fight, both holding their dual bladed sabers at the ready. Starkiller chuckled at this but also admired their fortitude. He began to drag his sabers across the ground as his pace quickened, lightning escaped from his palms and into the sabers, giving them an electrical punch; as he swung them at the Inquisitors the air seemed crackle as the electric waves emanated from the burning blades.

As the electrified sabers made contact with the red blades it seemed to give the Inquisitors a bit of an electric shock. The electricity wore the two down with each clash of the sabers, until the Fifth Brother's fatigue became almost too much for him to bear. Starkiller slammed his fist into the ground, releasing a wave of force energy that acted like an earthquake, knocking his two foes into the air; he jumped up as well and time seemed to slow through the Siths' eyes, combat did make seconds seem like minutes and minutes feel like hours after all.

Starkiller released the restraints on his control and his body danced with electricity, activating force fury. He unleashed an insanely large torrent of Sith Lightning from his palms at the two airborne Inquisitors, hitting them dead in the stomachs and keeping them in the air. After 10 seconds that felt like 10 hours to the Inquisitors, they were thrown into the wall yet again. The Fifth Brother couldn't find the strength to stand and fell into a state of unconsciousness; but the Mirialan stood up, albeit with much difficulty.

"You were trained well, but not well enough!" Starkiller stated as he slowly walked towards the Seventh Sister; slightly impressed with her tenacity.

"You're not so bad yourself." The Seventh Sister replied with what the Assassin could've sworn was in a flirtatious tone.

"Then I am sorry to end this now." Starkiller retorted in an identical tone as he shot lightning from his hands.

The Mirialan released red lightning from her hands, colliding with Starkiller's purple lightning; both sides struggling to overpower the other. The Emperor was cackling like a maniac from the event unfolding before him as the lightning lit up the bridge. The purple lightning began to gradually push the red lightning back to its owner. The Seventh Sister was by her own reflected lightning along with the Assassin's; sending her flying through the air and onto the ground, now too weak to get back up. The Dark Apprentice used the force and lifted both the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister up and landed them a few meters from the Emperor's feet.

"Good, good, you have trained him well Lord Vader." The Emperor chuckled with a slow clap; Vader merely nodded in approval.

Starkiller crossed his arms across his chest; sabers still active pointing at the ceiling, and bowed.

"Now boy, decided their fate." The Emperor ordered; the Inquisitors looking at the Assassin, struggling to prop themselves up.

Starkiller stood quiet for a few moments before deactivating his sabers and clipping them to his belt. He extended his hand and helped the Seventh Sister up and then assisted the Fifth Brother up.

"These two are powerful, too powerful to simply dispose of, I'd like them to become a part of Stalker Company, be a part of my elite troop." Starkiller gave his decision to the Emperor.

"Very well", Sidious reluctantly agreed, "You two serve Darth Starkiller from now until the day you die or if he decides to release you from his command."

"Your will, milord." The Inquisitor Duo kneeled as best they could.

"You have proven yourself an asset, Starkiller." The emperor continued, "You will play a role in this alliance's fall."

"It is my honor, your excellency." Starkiller kneeled along with his two new allies.

"Leave now, await my instructions from your cruiser, we shall bring the alliance to its knees."

"As you wish, milord." Starkiller complied with the Inquisitors not far behind.


Once they had left, the Emperor spoke to Vader.

"His power grows stronger every day, it will only be a matter of time before he attempts to overthrow us." The Emperor growled.

"His loyalty prevents any betrayal, he won't disobey." Darth Vader stated, "He was trained to never defy the Empire."

"Don't underestimate him, need I remind you that you almost died at his hands." The Emperor continued.


Back with the three Assassins….

The walk back to the shuttle was quiet for a while before the Starkiller spoke up.

"What are your names? Your actual names?" Starkiller asked firmly.

"We don't have a real names." The Fifth brother said in a low growl.

"Then you are getting one right now." Starkiller chuckled.

"Very well, master." The Seventh Sister reluctantly nodded.

"Seventh Sister", the Dark Apprentice addressed the female Inquisitor, "You shall now be known as Sunev, the Darkest Star."

The Mirialan seemed pleased with her new name.

"Fifth Brother", Starkiller turned his attention to the grey alien, "You shall now be known as Brutus, the embodiment of Strength, deceit, and mercilessness."

"Very well, master." The newly named Brutus gave a bow before increasing his pace a bit, not wanting to show weakness in front of the Stormtroopers.

"Your tenacity reminds me much of my own behavior, you will serve me well, apprentice." Starkiller addressed the Mirialan.

"I will serve you loyally, and faithfully." Sunev replied with a suggestive smirk.

Much to Starkiller's surprise she stroked her hand across his helmet before upping her pace as well.

Starkiller stood still for a few seconds, registering her actions, before shaking them off and increasing his pace to catch up with the Inquisitors; who were surprisingly quick despite their injuries.


Annnnd that's a wrap! Read review, and enjoy!

A/N: I'd like to thank Burke23 for creating that little part at the ending with Sunev and Starkiller, it was really fun to write. Female Sith tend to be flirty and deadly, if you've played SWTOR then you will know what I mean XD.

A/N: Lightsaber fights aren't really my forte, so please be merciful to me XD I've been very busy so please forgive the short chapter.

The more reviews I get the quicker the next update will come!

Glory to Mandalore!
