Master Jia woke up to a message from Grandmaster Akto to see him in the combat training room that afternoon, the same one where the Jedi Trials were held. Believing she had to conduct some tutoring for younglings or provide instruction to the Padawan's she thought nothing of it. Sitting up in her bed, she groggily looked over at her sleeping Padawan. She had nothing against the Zabrak but if she could switch him out for Knol, or even any of the other Padawan's she would do it a heartbeat. For some time she did consider, however, using the boy to satiate her newly awakened sexual desires but turned the idea down.
There was none like Knol.
The very idea of her got her hot, slipping her two fingers into her wet cunt as she spread her legs open beneath the blankets. She bit her lip as she penetrated herself over and over with her fingers, scraping the walls of her vagina with them. She quietly moaned for Knol and used her free hand to pinch her nipples and massage her small yet supple breasts. She imagined Knol between her legs, his throbbing dick pumping in and out of her, willingly at that. For the Mirialan she wanted nothing more than for Knol to come to her, to be with her. Jia had lied to Kun'da when she said she had no intention of only wanting to fuck him. Yes, she wanted much more than and in her mind she deserved it. She was younger than Kun'da, more skilled with the blade despite not being as powerful as she was, and arguably a more vivacious lover.
"Fuck that bitch." She grumbled, as thrusted her fingers in and out faster to force her orgasm to come faster, and indeed it did, much hard harder than she anticipated. Her legs spread far apart in the air, tensing up from the pleasure. Her pussy walls clamped down her fingers, her back arched upward as small moans escaped her mouth. All that was missing was for her womb to be filled once again by Knol's seed and by the Force she was gonna take it again, fuck her promises. After coming back down from her climax, Jia got dressed and left prepared herself some food as Be-io continued to sleep across the room from her. With about an hour to kill, before she had to meet Akto, she decided to go and visit Knol while hoping Kun'da would not be around. Smiling to herself, she left her quarters and made for Knol's.
Knock Knock Knock
"Good Morning, Knol! Please be a dear and open up." Jia said sweetly. Moments later the door hissed open and her joyful face turned sour as she was confronted by Kun'da who responded curtly to her arrival.
"Knol is not here right now. He is currently meditating with Master Akto. Get lost you green whore." Without giving time for Jia to respond, Kun'da shut the door, leaving a stunned Jia behind. She ground her teeth in frustration but calmed herself, reasoning she could just find him wandering around the halls later once he left the old man. Then it would just be a matter of finding someplace private. Her mood restored at the prospect, she decided to wait around until her appointment with Akto.
Nearly an hour later, Jia put on her professional facade and opened the door to the training room which happened to be extremely dimly lit. Confused, Jia took a few steps into the room as the door hissed shut behind her, hardly able to see the dull yellow lights that ran along the walls.
"Master Akto? are you here?"
"Right here, Master Jia." The elderly Jedi stepped forward from out of the darkness, scowling. A creeping feeling traveled through her body as she saw the way he looked at her.
"I-Is something wrong Master?" She asked, playing dumb. Akto nodded as he dropped his cane to the ground and stood up straight, his back and joints cracking as he did so. He took a deep breath and shook his head.
"Master Jia, are you aware of what happens when someone indulges in their desires? I don't mean getting angry from time to time or feeling and thinking things about others, perhaps even...a slight infatuation." He tilted his head.
"O-Of course Master, the indulgence of any kind is inexcusable. Balance is important." The Mirialan stammered out.
"Correct, balance is indeed needed. But, when someone allows those emotions to control them, to relish in them...well, that is when problems occur. That is what the Sith do. They live in their anger, rage, greed, and lust. Now, Master Jia. I will give you one opportunity to tell me the truth," He put his hands behind his back and spoke down to her as a strict father would to a failure of a child, "What did you do to Knol." His voice rang in her ears and caused her to break out into a cold sweat. The sweet visage of an elderly man faded and what stood before her now was something otherworldly powerful. Akto's very aura making it difficult to even move properly.
Master Jia, took a step backward and instinctively reached for her lightsaber, but stopped before igniting it. "Master Akto, please, calm down. I-I did nothing to him whatsoever. I don't know what he told you but it's evident the injuries inflicted upon him by Kun'da scrambled his brain." Jia offered with a nervous laugh.
"Yes, I thought that at first too. False memories could have been what he told me. But, you see, I wouldn't be the Grandmaster if I couldn't detect the truth and see visions of the past. I know what you did. I've seen it all, Master Jia. Yet you dare lie to my face!" The old man's voice boomed. With her true activities discovered, the Mirialan dropped her facade and became indignant.
"If you know what I did then you should also know that Kun'da has laid hands on him as well! Are you going to let that go!?"
"Under normal circumstances, I would have told them to desist such activities. But, the Force has deemed their bond necessary. For what? That remains to be seen. So I have allowed it to continue. You on the other hand...are banished for your actions." Akto waved his hand, but Jia grew even more upset and refused to leave.
"Are you kidding? Fuck that! Do you have any idea how much it hurts to not be allowed to have attachments like Knol and that Togruta bitch have? I've wanted that for years! He's perfect for it, I need him!" Jia screamed as she ignited her lightsaber. "No one shall stop me, not even you!" Her yellow eyes became darker in shade, rivers of red crisscrossing them now. "This fucking code is insane! You can't make living beings act like droids! This is your fault, you made me this way!" Jia snarled, the Dark Side surrounding her.
"You have fallen, Master Jia! And I shall correct this! Come!" Akto maintained his stance as Jia charged her elder and swung her blade aimed at his neck, but the Grandmaster had no intention of dodging. Jia's yellow lightsaber connected with Akto's neck but shards of plasma sparked harmlessly off to the side. Akto's withered mouth smirked as eyed the blade sparking against his body. He then scoffed before gut-punching the Mirialan with such force that she flew back and slammed against the wall. Gasping and struggling to breathe, she frantically tried and failed to get back up to her feet as Akto walked towards her. "Shocked, hm? Who do you think taught Kun'da Force Enhancement? Get up, your punishment isn't over."
Jia managed to stand but just barely, pointing her lightsaber at her former Master, she cursed his name. "All I wanted was love, friendship! But the Jedi deemed attachments wrong...in fear of what?"
"That something like this would occur! You forced yourself on a Padawan and attacked a fellow Master! You've proven my point, Jia. Now either stand down or I'll make you, and I don't need a fucking lightsaber to do it either." Jia flinched as he took a step forward, in complete disbelief at the power he held in his advanced age.
"If I had at least one person to be with, or even a friend that was more than just simple hello's and instruction, or talk of missions, maybe I wouldn't be like this! Maybe it was fine for you, but for me...it was so fucking lonely, it left me broken and jaded. And it's your fault, you old bastard." Jia turned off her blade and dropped to the floor, head hanging low. This caused Akto to pause as he considered what she said.
And as much as he hated to admit it. She had a point. But, he would think about it later. For now, he had to take care of his fallen student. Placing a thumb on her forehead, he sent a Force surge through her body knocking her unconscious.
"These certainly are odd times, in my younger years I would have struck her down as soon as she entered the room. Haaah." The tired Jedi sighed, conflicted for the first time in a long time. As he thought about what to do with the Mirialan, he called for the Temple guards and ordered for her to be put into a cell. "Much to think about, there is." Akto then left to go to his chambers to meditate, hoping the Force would provide some answers.
Two days later, much of the Temple had heard what became of Master Jia, her fall to the Dark Side. None were privy to what she did or how it happened but they were disappointed in her nonetheless. Be-io confided in Knol that he had no idea such darkness and vileness lay within his Master.
"She seemed so gentle, caring, and amazing as a teacher. I just, I don't believe it." The forlorn Zabrak spoke softly to Knol. He then lamented that he was told by Master Akto that he was going to be transferred to the Jedi temple on Naboo as there were no other Masters or knights available to take him in at the moment.
"You'll be alright, Be-io. Trust me." Knol placed a hand on his friends' shoulder. "I'll keep in touch with you, just like I am with Rona. Do not worry my friend, you will not be forgotten. But hey, text me instead, okay?" Knol chuckled as a teary-eyed Be-io hugged him abruptly.
"I know man, I talk too much." He laughed through his tears as Knol returned his hug, Kun'da then told Knol that they had to leave.
"Grandmaster Akto has need of us, we need to talk with...Jia, the three of us. Padawan Be-io will you please excuse us? And the Jedi at our sister Temple on Naboo will take excellent care of you."
"Thank you, Master." The Padawan walked off, much more quietly than he used to. The pair watched him leave for a moment before turning their attention to the matter at hand.
"Let us go, Knol. I'll be right with you, we can do this." Kun'da said softly.
"Thanks, Ke'leh. I'm ready." With that said, the Master-Padawan pair walked towards the prison section of the Temple reserved for Jedi who engaged in 'unsavory' behavior. With only one occupant at the moment, it was deathly quiet. The only sound being their footsteps all the way up to the prison cell. Pressing a button on the door panel, the door hissed open to reveal Akto standing on one side of the room with Jia shackled on the other. She offered a weak smile to Knol and waved, only no malicious intent was detected this time by the boy.
"Hello, Master Kun'da, greetings Knol. I trust you are well?"
"As well as one could be, Master," Knol said, trying to pretend Jia wasn't staring holes into his face. Kun'da did no such thing and stood behind her Padawan and placed her arms over his shoulders.
"Wonderful. I'll get straight to it then." Never beat around the bush as always, the old man got to the point. "Jia has admitted to her crime and has expressed remorse for her actions. "
"After you beat the shit out of me first." Jia interrupted.
"Just be glad I knocked off the hold the Dark Side had on you, otherwise I really would have killed you." Akto shot back.
"Fair enough."
"Mhm. Now then, Knol. I have meditated long and hard on what to do with our Mirialan friend here and have come up with a solution. A sort of experiment."
"What did you have in mind?" Knol asked nervously.
"I would like for Master Jia to be partnered with you and Master Kun'da."
"Fuck. That." Kun'da immediately rejected the idea. "I have no intention of living with the one who raped my Padawan and fell to the Dark Side! Isn't that right Knol?" She bent down and made her head level with his to gauge his response.
"I-I must agree with Kun'da, Master Akto. I still have...nightmares and horrid memories about what she did to me, to us." Kun'da nodded in agreement.
"Now, now. I understand that this is not what you wanted to happen but hear me out. Jia had me thinking that...our code should be revised to allow for more...intimate connections to be made. I want to test this out with the three of you."
"Why can't Knol and I be the only ones involved? Knol belongs to me, er, I mean we are together and I have no intention of sharing him with that woman! She's a fucking rapist!"
"Hey! A reformed one! I was just extremely pent up and had years of rage that needed to get out, and now it has. It's some shitty reasoning but it's true." Jia reached towards Knol, but he flinched back from her. Not wanting for things to escalate further, Akto stepped between them.
"Stop!" He ordered. He looked at all three of them angrily for a moment before it subsided. "Hahh, there's another reason I want the three of you to do this. I had a vision." He stopped speaking and hesitated.
"And?" Jia blurted out after a few seconds.
"The Sith have returned." The three Jedi were flabbergasted by what their elder had said. "Not only that, I saw the three of you fighting against a powerful Dark Lord. One so strong with the Dark Side that they could slaughter all of us in one-on-one combat. But the three of you...together, can stop him. I'm quite literally betting everything on you all. I don't know when the Sith will strike, but when they do, we need you to be ready. That is why I have not exiled Jia or have her executed. I hope you can understand." Kun'da was the first to speak.
"I can understand it...but Master, Knol is the victim here. To ask him to even be friends with her is...far too much. Surely Knol and I with your help can lead the Jedi to victory." Kun'da pulled Knol closer to her body, afraid that her connection to him would no longer be as intimate anymore.
"I have considered that," Akto said stroking his beard. "It will not work though, for I was not even in the vision." Everyone knew what he meant by that, but none wanted to say it aloud.
"Ah...I see." Kun'da said looking down at the floor. "So then, I really don't have a choice. But Knol, my Dear...I-I can't...I don't want to put you through this or share you with this woman. As selfish as it is, I can't. Even for the sake of the galaxy." Knol turned and looked his Master, his lover in the eye and said something she did not expect.
"She can come with us. If she can answer one question." Knol took a deep breath as he turned to face Jia. "Master Jia, I-I need to know...why? Why did you do t-that to me?" Knol stuttered.
"Knol, please you're-" Kun'da started but was stopped by Akto who shook his head.
"He needs this, let the boy have his closure." Kun'da backed off and crossed her arms. Jia reached out with her cuffed hands, beckoning for Knol to grab them. After a brief moment of hesitation, he took her hands in his.
"Knol, I am...extremely sorry for what I said and for what I did to you and Kun'da. I was wrong, no buts about it. As to why I did it...as idiotic as it sounds I was lonely. And more jaded than you could ever believe. Ever since I got here I was unable to share my true emotions and feelings with anyone. Do you know what isolation like that does to someone? Over time, it warps you, destroys you from the inside. I snapped and I ended up hurting the two of you. And after Master Akto smacked some sense into me I was able to become honest about it all. You don't have to forgive me, but I want you to know that you don't have to be afraid of me anymore." She smiled weakly and then looked at Kun'da. "If for any reason you think I am falling again, you have my permission to kill me right then and there. I am that serious about all of this. That's, well, everything I think." Jia chuckled sadly, slumping back against the wall.
"Thank you. I forgive you. But, one miss-step and like you said Kun'da will be there to cut you down." Knol said sternly, the Force rising around him then falling around him as he took his place back next to Kun'da.
"Are you sure about this?" She asked the Padawan, who nodded.
"Then it's settled." Akto then removed Jia's cuffs and warned her to stay in line or he wouldn't hold back against her like last time if Kun'da didn't stop her. He left her with that and left the three Jedi in awkward silence.
"H-How about we go eat?" Knol offered. His two Masters exchanged looks and then agreed with him.
So begins the true start to Knol's journey, so ends the prologue.
