Okay everyone welcome to the last chapter for today. It looks like we get to find out what happened to Lux. What will happen to the two friends? Let's see. Star Wars is owned by Disney. I just own my OCs.
Chapter 12: A Distress Call
Palace: Ouside (Adam's POV)
After the Duchess ordered me to escort Lux out of the palace I walked over to him and contacted Barriss. "Barriss I want you to get inside the throne room to help Ahsoka calm things down before somebody does something stupid." I then grabbed Lux's arm and walked out side the palace, and saw Barriss walk by me, while Lux struggled to set himself free from my grip. "Calm down Lux!" I said to him.
"I won't calm down until I see Dooku dead!" He said to me before be pulled out a knife and stabbed the left shoulder of my armor. As I released my grip on him to get the knife out of my shoulder he ran up to me and pinned me on the ground and began to throw my head against the ground.
After he went blood drunk and started to beat me with his fists I threw him off of me. "LUX STOP THIS!" I yelled at him as I threw him to the ground and took off my helmet, revealing my face. With out a hesitation he got back up on my face and tried to land punches on me, only to end up on the floor again. I looked at him and said, "Do you remember me?! Do you know who I am?!"
"Just a soldier taking orders from cowards!" She said as he ran at me with his knife and tried to stab me.
I then grabbed his arms and yelled, "YOU KNOW ME!"
"I DON'T ANYBODY ANYMORE!" He yelled at me before I put his arms around his back and handcuffed him.
I then through him on the ground and activated my saber. "YOU KNOW ME LUX!" I yelled.
After I said that Lux then started to cry as tears began to come down his face. He then looked at me and said, "Please. Please kill me now." He then laid his face on the floor as he cried.
Throne Room (Ahsoka's POV)
While Adam was outside handling Lux, Barriss walked into the room and said, "Ahsoka are you alright?"
"I'm fine." I said to her. "I just can't believe that Lux is here?"
"You know that boy?" She asked.
"We met him a few years ago when Senator Amidala and I discovered Adam and Anthony. We were friends with Lux and his mother before Adam and Anthony decided to leave to Coruscant with us." I said to her.
"What happened to him?" Barriss asked.
"A few weeks later his mother was killed when the Senate was under attack." I said to her.
Nightstalker (Adam's POV)
After I escorted Lux outside the palace I grabbed a speeder and drove us to the Nightstalker where I sat him on a chair and asked, "Do you remember me Lux?"
Using all of the knowledge in his head he looked at me and said, "Adam. You're Adam. It's all starting to come back to me."
"You found me and my brother Anthony and your…" I paused, trying not to mention his mother. "You found us, and you took us into your home and you took care us."
"I remember now." He said to me.
"What happened to you Lux?" I asked. "You weren't always like this."
"You weren't there for me." He said to me.
"I'm sorry what happened to you Lux but I-" I said to him until I was cut off.
"You weren't there for me!" He said to me.
"I know Lux I tried-" I was then cut off.
"I thought you would come back but-" He said until I decided to cut him off.
"I tried to come back Lux but-" I said to him as he cut me off.
"BUT YOU WERE NOT THERE!" He yelled at me and started to calm down.
"Lux I tried to come back, I swear to God, I tried to come back for you but a lot of other people needed me." I said to him. I then saw the cross I gave him, hanging from his neck, and said, "Remember when I gave you this."
"Yeah you can have it back, cause it looks like I finally found you!" He angrily said. "You told me that this was going to give me hope but instead it's given me nothing but trouble! You also said that things happen for a reason well tell me how my mother's death is going to make me a better man!" After he said that I started to think about his question.
Palace (Anthony's POV)
As the meeting was finishing up, the rest of us met at the front entrance of the palace where Jason asked, "So what do we do now?"
"Let's head back to the ship and figure out what to do with Lux." I said to Jason as everyone nodded at my decision. We then found a speeder and drove back to the spaceport. As we drove through the city I kept thinking about Lux and how it's been so long since Adam, Ahsoka and I saw him.
Nightstalker (Adam's POV)
After thinking about Lux's question, I took off his handcuffs and said, "I think this happened to you because it was the only way for us to be reunited and have this discussion right now. And I think that this happened to you so that you can come with us and train you to become a member of this team."
"You really think that's the reason?" He asked as he rubbed his wrists after the andcuffs were off.
"I know that's the reason." I said to him. "I know you want to bring peace and justice, and if you want to do that, you were meant to be part of this team."
"Do you think we can bring peace and justice?" He asked.
"We're gonna fight...and we're gonna win this war." I said to him as Ahsoka and the rest of the team walked inside the ship. I looked at Anthony and asked, "The meeting's over?"
"Yeah the meeting finished a few minutes ago." Anthony said.
Ahsoka then walked at me and whispered, "Is he okay?"
"He'll be fine." I said to her. I then said, "I spoke with him and I've decided that he's going to join our team." I then notice had a look on her face and I said to her, "I know that I should have discussed this with everyone but I think with the right training, he will make a great member of the team."
"I know." She said to me. "I think you're doing the right thing." She then kissed me on the cheek as she went over to Lux and I went to the control room and Anthony and I inserted Zeta and Theta's chip inside the Nightstalker and flew the ship.
As we were about to make a jump to Coruscant, Zeta spoke out. "Adam I'm receiving a distress call from a planet called Rhen Var."
"Answer it." Said to her as I put my helmet on.
After she answered the call, a hologram of a young white boy, around our age with blond hair and wearing a suit of armor said, "Hello is anyone there?!"
"This is Razor of the Republic Army. Who am I speaking to?" I asked.
"This is Prince Alexander of the Capitol of Rhen Var! We need immediate assistance!" He said to me in a frightened tone.
"Calm down your majesty." I said to him. "What's going on?"
"We've received information that the Separatists are intending to invade our capitol." He said to me. "We need Saber Team to help us."
"We're on our way." I said to him as I turned off the holocom and said to Zeta "Zeta I need you to make a jump to Rhen Var."
"Already on it." She said as the ship entered hyperspace.
After the ship made the lightspeed jump, I looked at everyone and said, "Change of plans guys. We just got a distress call from the prince of Rhen Var and he says that he needs our help to prevent a Separatist invasion."
"How long will it take us to get there?" Jason asked.
"We should get there in four hours." I said to him as the ship flew through hyperspace.
Okay everyone that's it for today and I want to say something to you guys. I decided that the team would not go to Carlac because I wanted them to be part of something much bigger then a Deathwatch squad so I decided to through them in a situation that's gonna push them to their limits. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter and are enjoying the story. If you like the story, leave a comment. See ya tomorrow.
