Chapter 6
Everything is proceeding as my Master has foreseen. Good, very good, thought the dark being. He stood on a balcony across from the Senate Building. He was right across from the room of the Senator from Felucia.
I
see he found my lightsaber. Finally, I was wondering how long it
would take him. But what could I expect, he is a Jedi.
The creature reached for his comlink, before it even started
chirping.
He turned around, his back now facing the Senate
Building.
He was waiting for when his inside source would contact
him.
"Master, the Senator is talking to three Jedi. I am worried he will say something", said a deep raspy voice.
"Do
not worry, Senator Ligg", the being replied in a harsh voice. "He
will not say a thing. I am actually pleased you contacted me."
The
being turned back to the Senator's room, and saw a four-armed
muscular women enter the room. That
must be his Master. This is interesting. I see she did not expect a
cortosis hilt.
"Master?" Lien Ligg asked.
The being starred more intently at the room, and noticed the women had slung the Jedi over her shoulder and had put his lightsaber in a bag. She is smart for a brute. And she has my lightsaber. No worries, for I will have it soon enough.
His attention turned back to the conversation.
"Now is the time. Give Cofuni the signal."
At
that the creature ended the conversation and then jumped off of the
balcony.

"Set
course to Dagobah", Kanze said.
"Yes sir", said the pilot
and Jedi Brute. All four seats of the cockpit were filled with Jedi
Brutes, ordered to protect and aid Kanze, but more importantly his
cargo. Kanze walked out of the room and down one of the corridors.
Kanze stopped in front of one particular room. Kanze just stood,
feeling the tremendous energy of the Force coming from the room.
However, something was missing. Kanze walked into the room.
There
in meditation sat four, young Jedi pupils deep in thought. One of
them was missing. He would not go on a wild chase after Laayla. It
was exactly what she wanted.
"Rende, where is Laayla?"
Before the young girl could speak a voice spoke from behind.
"Here I am", said a peppy voice. "Sorry, but I didn't really feel like meditating. Especially with a certain little boy, acting like a kjiol", Laayla said staring at Loki.
"Whose a kjiol?" he replied with a smirk on his face.
"This is not the time to fool around", Kanze said staring from Laayla to Loki. "Clear your minds must be"
"Master, where are we going?", Shiganda asked
"You mean the five of you haven't figured it out yet", Kanze said while leaving.
After he left the room he walked down the narrow hall and entered his room. At a first glance it would appear no one occupied the room. That was how Kanze lived.
He
sat down on the couch on the right wall and took out a holocron.
Dagobah would be the best place to take all of these young Jedi. He
activated the holocron and a short, yet powerful green figure stood
in front of him.
He felt like bowing in respect, even
though the figure wasn't literally there. However his essence and
wisdom was there. Every Jedi heard the stories of the great Yoda. It
was from the holocron of Yoda that the secret location of the ancient
test of fate on Dagobah had been passed down for generation of
Jedi's. It is the perfect location to test the power of these five
Jedi. Three of the five that came did not surprise him, one being
Laayla for obvious reasons, Loki who was a trouble maker but has
great potential, and the other being a Skywalker.
Master
Evol sat in her humble room, meditating. The Force was flowing
through her, opening her mind to cosmic powers. She felt out for the
presence of the darkside. What she felt was worse.
An empty void.
Nothing.
Unexpectedly, a series of images flashed
through a mind. A large ship landing, being met by a figure Evol was
all too familiar with, a dangerous figure in the mind of a tree, and
a large explosion. The flashes ended with a shadowy figure bowing
before a being she could not make out. She slowly opened her eyes. In
one swift moment she got up and made her way out of the door
assembling the council on the way.
"Tell
Master Thaed that the ship with the weapon is ready to lift off",
Quyve said.
"Good he was worried you would not meet the deadline
he had set", Dral Vern said mockingly.
"You must find this
amusing, don't you", Quyve said bluntly.
"Not exactly."
"You are disgusting."
"Said the talking skull."
"You
are nothing. You don't know the power I hold."
Quyve started
to walk away when Dral Vern force jumped in front of him. "Your
power is shadowed by your ignorance. Enjoy your time with the
Weapon." And before he could answer Dral Vern used another force
jump, activating her jet pack in mid-air.
"I
feel a disturbance Master", Ylesha whispered.
Master Vogel
replied, "I feel it to Ylesha.
They started searching around
with the Force, sensing that Master Kete had joined them in their
search.
A few feet away Senator Confuni received a transmission in the jewel in his ear. A Gotal voice spoke in his ear, "Time to move out, Nafrat. I am going to activate the bombs."
