The suns of Tatooine were blistering hot as ever and if you looked from the right angle, you would see a ship fly past them, and fly over the dune sea and navigate it's way through the rocks of the Jundland wastes. It landed on a flat rocky surface, inbetween two larger rocks.

"Okay, I don't know exactly what to find out here, or what we're looking for, but I've done a quick scan of the area and it hasn't detected anything unusual." Michael admitted.

"Well you said you sensed the dark side right? So what if we just concentrate for a minute and try to feel anything or sense anything too unusual" Ahsoka suggested, as she was hoping to at least find something.

The pair closed their eyes for a second and tuned into the force. Although Ahsoka couldn't sense anything, Michael felt like there was something just north of them, and although he lied about sensing the dark side in this place, that not actually be a lie after all. And although it wasn't that strong, it was there. There was something else too, something very familiar.

"I can feel something" he said opening his eyes. "Over there, just north of us." Michael pointed out the window in a direction.

"I don't sense anything" Ahsoka admitted.

"I can. There's something in that direction." Even he sounded unsure. He wasn't use to not knowing what was going to happen next. "We should investigate." Michael got up and walked out the cockpit, Ahsoka following him.

"Are you sure we should go on our own?" Ahsoka originally was quite eager to discover something on their own. But now she was starting to regret it almost, as she had no idea what they were getting into.

"We should be alright if we're careful" Michael assured.

"And what about sand people?" inquired Ahsoka.

"Well they should be no problem for Jedi. And besides, considering your master, I doubt a lot of them are around" Michael said quite darkly.

"Hey that was a bit uncalled for" Ahsoka protested following him out the ship. "I mean I don't agree with what he did, but he did lose his mother to them."

Michael knew that. "Yeah, let's just keep going." He himself had lost people close to him to a violent species. He would be a hypocrite if he were to criticise Anakin for it, but, although he was respectful to him when he was around, he still had somewhat of an unconscious bias against Anakin, probably because Michael knew what he would do in the future. He wish he didn't have this bias, as he also knew about how much Anakin would suffer.

They walked out the ship and into the blaring sun. "Where did you sense it?" "Over there." The two climbed over some rocks and made their way down a hill. After a while of walking, Ahsoka did start to sense something. Something which made her feel, cold. Which was saying something, being in a desert. The feeling grew stronger, and very unsettling. This was something she'd never felt or sensed before. She was starting to regret coming on this venture.

"Michael, do you sense that? I don't think this is just the Separatists."

"I feel it too. This is something much, much more-" He stopped and turned to face the wall of a large rock. "There."

"What?"

"Can you sense that?"

"I do feel something, the dark side. But it's like, it's all around us. Like we're standing right on top of it."

Michael held out his hand. "Just do what I'm doing, just concentrate."

"What are you doing exactly?"

"Not sure. But I feel like there's something just here."

She did the same as him, and with Michael's power and Ahsoka's assistance, something in the wall of rock started to move, or more like, open. "A door" Ahsoka realised.

Both Jedi looked at each other and silently agreed to enter, Michael going in first, being the more eager one. It was dark, and the two used their senses to move around, although they eventually activated their lightsabers for some light. This was a great metaphor for the two of them, the only light in a place filled with darkness.

"What is this? This definitely doesn't look like a confederate base, now we know it's not them. Do you think-whoa!" Ahsoka lost her footing, as did Michael and they fell, but not far onto a floor below, not far enough to really hurt them. They rubbed their heads and stood up.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah I think so."

As they stood up, the room they were in became more visible, as their presence caused the room to be lit up. They looked around and observed their surroundings. There were monuments of warriors with sabers wearing special armour. Giant pillars in a giant room, and no windows. The Time lord and Togruta had a sudden moment of realisation.

"Michael, do you know what this is?" A slight fear was in Ahsoka's voice, in her rhetorical question.

"A Sith temple" he quietly replied. That was what he sensed. It was clear now why the dark side was surrounding them.

"Why should leave, and tell the council about this" suggested Ahsoka, still wary.

Although he was originally curious about his visions, and what this place was, but Michael found himself agreeing and maybe they bit off more than they could chew. Plus finding an abandoned temple wouldn't affect the timeline that much. "I think you're right, I don't think this is something we should deal with just by ourselves."

At this, Ahsoka suddenly had a change of heart, remembering that she wanted to find something that would impress her masters. And while she didn't technically find it, Michael did, she could at least explore it. "Actually Michael, is this place really any threat to us? I mean it's old and has probably been abandoned for millennia. Do you think we could explore it?"

Michael wasn't really sure what to do. Every part of the light side of the force was telling him to leave. But the part of him with the knowledge of the future wanted him to stay. Well, it wouldn't harm him just to satisfy his curiosity would it? "I suppose we could explore some of this. Just stay close Ahsoka, these places can play tricks on you."

"But they're ancient."

"Exactly."

They decided to walk through a doorway into another dimly lit room. They weren't exactly sure what they were looking for. Michael remembered that he searched the force for anything to do with Tempus. He wondered if this temple had anything to do with him.

"Do you think the Republic could use this as a fortress? Imagine that, finding an old Sith temple, and being able to use it for the Republic's own good" Ahsoka wondered. Michael however was focussing more on looking for anything that could help him.

"Do you trust him?" a voice spoke and Ahsoka looked around.

"Did you hear that?" she asked.

"Hear what?"

"Never mind."

The two headed towards what they thought was a door, but then bumped into a solid brick wall. "Ow!" they stepped back. "Wasn't this a door just now?" said Ahsoka igniting her saber to get a better view of the wall, as did Michael. They were about to turn away when they noticed some strange markings on the wall. They were more like drawings if anything. Michael examined them. There was a drawing of some sort of path, something that looked at lot like what you see when you're in hyperspace, but it was something different. There were drawings showing a story:

They was a group of people, which were shaded in quite dark, bowing down to some sort of emperor, all of them with some sort of stick in their hands. Then, another figure, a newcomer appeared, also shaded in.

The emperor figure, sent to what seemed to be the strongest figure bowing to him to meet this newcomer. The newcomer and the strongest figure clashed their sticks together but in another drawing, the newcomer triumphed.

Another drawing depicted the same figure, fighting people who had a brighter shade, clashing their sticks. Once again the darker figure won. Until thirteen brighter figures came from nowhere, and struck the dark figure down.

The dark figure next appeared to be in some temple next, lying there, and then, two bright figures entered. The next drawing, showed the figures exiting. One remained bright, the other, was now a darker shade.

Michael, being an intelligent being, had already worked out that this was about. The two figures at the end however, confused him.

"Do you think this tells the story of the Sith who rests here?" Ahsoka wondered. "And these symbols, what are they?" she looked at the symbols next to the drawings, swearing she'd seen them somewhere before. Then she noticed Michael's lightsaber, and the exact same symbols were carved into his hilt. "Michael, you have those exact same symbols carved into your saber."

This took Michael by surprise. "What?" "Right here" she gestured and Michael's eyes saw the all too familiar language written down. "It's gallifreyan." "What?" "My native language. On my homeworld." "Does that mean one of your kind is resting here?"

Michael read the symbols. "Defeater of the Sith Tulak Hord, and the only terror of the emperor, he lies here, more powerful than you could possibly imagine." No doubt in Michael's mind now that this was the temple of Tempus.

"The Sith who lies here. You know come to think of it Michael, I don't think I've ever met a force user the same species as you, why is that?" Ahsoka asked curiously. But Michael ignored that. "Let's keep going."

He walked through a doorway and Ahsoka was a short distance behind him, which allowed the door to close between them. "Michael?" "Ahsoka?" The two ran up to the wall. "Hang on I'm going to cut through it" Ahsoka stuck her saber in the wall.

Michael tried to blast down the wall with the force, but it didn't work, regardless of how powerful his force blasts were.

"It's futile" Michael heard a voice behind him. He turned around to see a stone table. He begun to walk slowly towards it.

Ahsoka on the other side he another voice. "Don't bother, the wall will just form back up again."

She turned around, and forming before her was a figure, it was a person. A human blonde woman stood before her, dressed in black wearing high heels, with a black cape behind her.

The Togruta stood at alert, pointing her lightsaber at the woman. "What are you?" she demanded.

"Ask me who I was" the blonde woman replied in a sly voice.

"Particular for a shade. Who were you then?"

"In life, I had the title of Darth."

"You're Sith."

"Zannah."

Ahsoka heard about her. "You were Darth Bane's apprentice. But you and him were killed. And the Sith became extinct."

"And yet Sith like Maul over a decade ago, and Sith like Dooku now, and this supposed Darth Sidious are here, aren't they?" Zannah chuckled. "Did we really become extinct?"

Ahsoka deactivated her saber. "Sith can't become force ghosts. It's not you, this is just an illusion."

"Do you trust him, Ahsoka?"

"How do you know my-?"

"I heard your friend call you that. And do you trust him?"

"What do you mean?"

"Your friend, do you think he'll stick by you? Betray you?"

"You mean Michael? Of course not!" Ahsoka was disgusted that she was asking such a question. "I've been friends with him for years, we trust each other with our lives."

"Years hm?" Zannah smirked, walking and circling Ahsoka, her high heels making noise as she walked. "He's had a far greater history than you think. Do you know how long his species lives for?" Ahsoka stayed silent, and Zannah answered. "Over twenty thousand years. You, are just a spec of dust to him."

"What? No race can live that long, this is just a trick, how would you know anything about us?" Ahsoka argued.

"This temple can explore your mind child. And I sense a feeling of alienation in you, with a hint of jealousy. Tell me, why did you originally come to this temple?" Zannah questioned.

"I didn't know this was a temple" Ahsoka answered.

"But nevertheless you wanted to find something here didn't you? To make you stand out, to impress your masters" Zannah pointed out. Ahsoka had no answer. Zannah continued. "Another potential Sith, Congus, took the interest of my master." Zannah stepped closer to the Togruta. "She impressed my master more, I was in her shadow, I was almost casted out by my master and he would've taken her as an apprentice instead."

"What did you do?" Ahsoka asked carefully.

"Me and Congus settled our differences, taking her as my apprentice, and killed my master." With that, the image of Darth Zannah disappeared. Ahsoka stood there, Zannah's words still echoing in her head. She decided it was best to find Michael and just leave.

Michael was still heading towards the stone table. As he walked, images started appear around him. Images that seemed so real. He tried to keep his head down, but he found himself walking on the bridges in the Jedi temple, Jedi bodies all around him.

"Is this what you wanted? You let this happen. You could have saved them all yet you did nothing!" A sinister voice chastised Michael.

The images disappeared and he found himself at the table. On it, he noticed a small projector, the same projector he saw in his visions. He slowly held out his hand to touch it, and as he did, it lit up. A blue light suddenly emerged, and Michael jumped back a bit. He watched on, as a tall figure, wearing Sith robes, and had short black hair and a stubble. He felt extremely powerful. The figure turned around, and laid his eyes on Michael. He took a while to adjust to his surroundings.

Michael stared up at this man, emerging from the projector, the same way Kaben and Henga did. The man looked down at him. "Well, this is unexpected" he spoke with a deep and stern voice. Time lords had this natural ability to detect one another. Michael knew who this was.

"I've been deceased for, from what the force is telling me, millenia. And I never expected to be woken up, by another of my race, a Jedi too."

Michael stood silent for a while, and eventually said "I sensed you, in the force. It showed me this place, Tempus."

Tempus smirked. "A young Jedi searching me out. Many and many have done so years before, not a single one survived. But they weren't Time lord, like we are." He looked up, as if he were trying to look into his own mind. "Strange, there's an unusual disturbance. Gallifrey, our people, they're not there. Why is this?" he looked down at Michael.

Michael didn't look him in the eye. "It's gone. Gallifrey's gone, as are the Time lords. I'm the only one."

I wasn't sure if that was a satisfying ending to a chapter or not. This chapter would've been too long however if I included part of the next chapter as this one's ending. So we see that Michael and Ahsoka are experiencing the tricks of the Sith temple. And in this case, Tempus is dead, but like Kaben and Henga, he put part of his consciousness into a projector, abling him to talk beyond the grave.
