Chapter 10- Light After all
Tehill swiftly moved through the ship's major halls, heading towards the cell blocks.
How am I supposed to convince a Sith Lord to turn good? She asked herself. But then again, this isn't any Sith Lord. Not just a notorious Sith named Jehill. This was her sister. The only family she has left in the whole universe. She has to convince her, or else she may be lost forever. Tehill finally found her way to the cell blocks where they were keeping Jehill. She walked through the big shiny doors, to the right of her were many cells. She could easily tell which cell Jehill was in because of the two Jedi Knights guarding the one cell. She walked up to one of them.
"Satele is letting me talk to her" Not knowing her master was right behind her, the Jedi Knight nodded and opened the containment field. There inside was Jehill. There were no beds, not even a rug for her to sit on. Tehill walked right in.
"I told you I was going to be fine little sis" Jehill looked up from the floor to see her sister kneeling down.
"Well I figured you might have been lonely in here. Sith do get lonely yes?" Tehill smiled. Her sister chuckled.
"Yes, killing thousands of innocent people can get quite lonely" Jehill smiled back but Tehill gave her a look like she wasn't amused, and she wasn't.
"You do realize why I'm here for right?" Tehill asked.
"Hmm...If I know Jedi, they probably want confessions. They want one good reason to execute me in public eye" Jehill answered honestly.
"Not really. Although I do admit that is probably what Satele secretly wants. But no, that's not why I am here for. I want you to...need you to...shit" Tehill couldn't muster up the words to ask Jehill.
"Need me to, what Tehill?" Jehill looked at her with concern.
"I need you to become good again. Like you were before we got separated! I want my sister back. I want her to be saved from this corruption!" Tehill started to tear up a little.
"Tehill, I am not sure if I can!" Jehill looked down at the floor.
"I think you can! Remember all those times when I encouraged you to do something that you didn't think you could do? I was a lot younger back then but I had more faith in you. I still have faith in you! Why don't you?" Tehill asked truthly.
"The Sith is why! I don't have any faith in myself anymore! I don't have any faith in others. I only have faith through my powers. That is what the Sith brainwashed me with. 'Only trust in your powers and your powers will lead you to victory' I was always taught. It's not so simple to just throw all that away and suddenly turn good Tehill! If a person is too corrupted then it is impossible for them to return to themselves"
"But you're not too corrupted!" Tehill blurted out.
"What makes you think that young one?" Jehill quickly replied.
"You were crying on Tatooine when you saw me. My master has never in his entire lifespan ever seen a Sith Lord cry. The fact that you were willing to risk everything to help you little sister, means that you are still in there. I will fight like hell to bring her out" Tehill looking at her sister, took her hand and held it for a while. Jehill looked up at her with watery eyes.
"I truly thought I was alone in the universe. Perhaps I let myself be corrupted because of this feeling. Maybe I can reverse it now that I know that I am not alone after all" Jehill gave a half smile. While Tehill on the other hand, gave her the biggest hug she could. Jehill didn't know what to do with herself. So she just slowly patted her back. Behind the other side of the containment field, she saw Tehill's master give her an approving nod. She buried her face in Tehill's shoulder in response.
"If you're willing to try. Then I will help all that I can" Tehill finally pulled back from the hug and stood up. She gave Jehill a hand for her to get up as well. Jehill took her hand and stood up.
"I will try. It won't be easy. But I will try" Jehill gave her sister a toothy grin that made Tehill smile as well.
Suddenly the ship shook with such ferocity it almost knocked them back onto the floor. The containment field failed and they both looked at each other in confusion. Both Tehill and her master had a emergency call on their comns.
"That damn sith lead her friends right to us!" Satele shouted.
"No I did not! The only 'friends' I have is already on the ship Jedi" She responded.
"Then who the hell is this then?" Satele snapped back at Jehill. Tehill closed the comn.
"We better go to the bridge to see what is going on. You better come too!" Tehill grabbed Jehill's hand and she led her out the cell. The two Jedi Knights followed as well as Tehill's master as they headed to the bridge to see what was happening.
