Chapter 20: The Beginning of the End
Sky stood alone in the body room, albeit not for long, as he found one person still alive "do you know how long I spent planning this?" He asked to which the person coward in fear. "My brother now knows the same pain I felt on Skaro all those years ago, and what have I to show for it?" He sent a bolt of Force Lightnjng after the guard but intentionally so that he could keep his prey alive for a a little bit longer. "Nothing!"
He the used the force to pull the clward before him just ask he was about to escape, "stay right there!" Sky growled as he ignited his blood red Lightsaber, "I forgot that people like you were a coward, what good are you to me?" When the guard tried to answer, Sky sighed dissapointedly and just straight up stabbed the guard through the heart, once he wa done murdering the guard he sat down on the makeshift throne and watched the screen that showed the Death of Ahsoka Tano play out on various screens around the Galaxy.
As he was watching her death being played out for the fifth time he couldn't help but feel a little bit of pity for his brother, he so desperately wanted Ahsoka as his apprentice, but he was only saying that so he could stall for time and kill her anyway, but in his own sick twisted way, Ahsoka meant as much to him as she did his brother.
Suddenly thick black smoke appeared in front of him and the Trickstet appeared, although dressed in white instead of his usual black, "that went better than expected."
Sky scowled at the Trickster and snarled "of course it did, her death went excatly as it should have."
"Tell me," Sky's attention was focused on the screen as it was The Tricksterband he noticed this, so he appeared on the screen "how did it feel to take her life?"
"Powerful, I could feel the life force slipping away."
"And do you finally have satisfaction?"
Yes" Sky said as he looked away from the Trickster, "Ahsoka is dead and my brother now feels the same pain that I felt."
"Then everything is ready" this got Sky's attention because it meant what he was dreaming for such a long time was finally coming true, "it's time for the Blackest Night to begin. Gather your forces and prepare for his arrival."
"He's" Sky said stammering "he's coming here?" At this the Trickster smiled and said nothing as he vanished from the screen and the black smoke dissapeared. When the Trickster was finally gone, Sky smiled evilly as his plan finally meant something. The Dark Lord of the Sith had noticed his existence and was coming here.
Sky stood up at this and began a speech as he looked at Alex crying over Ahsoka'd broken body "how does it feel Alex?" He then walked forward facing the screen now, the screen then showed his various allies preparing for war. "Knowing that all of your time and effort has been for nothing? That your allies have failed you?" The screen then changed back to Ahsoka's death "That everything you love has been taken away from you?"
His attention was then drawn to the Avatar's allies again "Your faith in your allies was not misplaced... When banded together, united by a common enemy, they are a noticeable threat."
The screen then showed an image of Darlene on her own and at this Sky smiled and chuckled evilly "But divide them... Place doubt into their minds... And any Force of power they had will wash away. Of course, they won't realize it at first. Like you they'll cling to their fleeting hope... Their aspirations... But this is merely the first move. So you send your friends. Your allies and comrades" the screen then showed his brother talking with his friend's and allies "and when they fail and you turn to your desperate last hope.. know that you send her to the same pitiful demise as Ahsoka" the screen then flicked back to Ahsoka's death, "This is the beginning of the end for you, Alex. And I can't wait to watch you burn." The screen then showed Ahsoka's death one last time and switched of just as Sky turned back around to face the throne and smiled his most evil smile...
