Nightsisters Empire chapter6
Lux groaned in pain as the storm troopers sent another bolt of electricity throughout his body. He had endured what felt like days of torture. He had seen images that would mentally scare him for the rest of his life and wounds that would scare him physically. He could see now how Ahsoka had managed to break and turn Padme during the clone wars but he would refuse to fall no matter what, he would never betray his fellow rebels.
After another two jolts he was dropped form his restraints and picked up "You are to be taken to the interrogation room. Mother Tano would like to speak to you" one of the officers said.
"Oh that should be fun" Lux quipped.
After being unceremoniously dragged then dumped down in a chair, Lux came face to face with the most feared person in galaxy and her apprentice.
"Why Lux you look a little worse for wear, has my hospitality not pleased you" she said in a sickly sweet tone. Lux said nothing just stared daggers at her, he was not going to fall for her taunting. He had changed a lot in the last years he was no longer the clueless senator trying to play solider he was now a battle hardened veteran who hated the Empire and wanted it gone for good.
"So where is your rebel base, tell us and we can end your suffering" Leia said simply her tone soft although it was very clear to was just an act.
"I thought I was here to talk to the engineer not the oil rag" Lux said venom in his voice. Before he knew what was happening he was flung against the wall by a strong force push. He crumpled to the floor looked up and saw that Leia had thrown him across the room.
"I am your princess and you will address me as such, traitor" Leia said anger and hatred dripping off her as she force choked him. Ahsoka watched in amusement but with a single hand movement she stooped Leia form killing Lux.
"Your no princess of mine" Lux replied once he got his breath back, he then spat at Leia. Ahsoka had to physical step in now to stop Leia form killing him "No my apprentice he will not die yet. Wait outside while I have a little chat with him" she said her tone low and dangerous. Leia just nodded and left. Once Leia left Ahsoka looked at lux picked him up with the force and deposited him in to a chair.
"I see you're still good at crossing women" she said simply.
"Well I had such success with you I thought I might as well keep it up" Lux replied blandly. Ahsoka's reaction was not what Lux had expected she just half smiled and laughed softly.
"You know you're never leaving this station alive. I'll make sure of it; however I want you to suffer first. You crossed me and you should never have done that." She said simply but her tone was full of hate.
"I did what I had to" Lux replied.
"I see and did you do what you had to that night when Steella died, before I turned?" Ahsoka asked "Where you doing what you had to when you came to me that night in need of comfort. That passion filled night?" she paused and came closer so close Lux could feel her breath on his face "I don't think so." She added.
"That was nothing" Lux defended
"Oh really then why did you tell me you loved me. I can still sense those feelings in you" she said knowing she had him "You strung me along even after the empire was formed; you mated with me only to betray me." She said her tone turning dark and full of evil "However, no matter how hard you fight a part of you belongs to me. That little voice in your head that you have ignored for so long, whispering doubts, was me. The horrific nightmares of death and torture were me, letting you know you will never escape me. I will make you suffer a living hell and only when you beg for death will I let my apprentice grant it." She said her tone cold and full of evil. Lux felt like shrinking into a ball. Was it true, does part of him belong to her? Will he unknowingly betray the rebellion? All these questions swam in his mind as to trooper came in and picked him up and made him follow Ahsoka.
"You know Ahsoka I did try to find you, all those years ago when you were lost. I managed to figure out where you were but I couldn't bring myself to go to Dathomir. I was too scared." He said simply regret clear in his voice. "But I am not that man any more, you will never break me" he said determinedly
"We shall see. You failed to find me and you will fail to protect your Rebels. Fate was my ally it will never be yours" she said simply.
After half an hour of walking he found himself in the command area of the death star. He looked up at Ahsoka, Leia, Sabine and Admiral Long "Why have you brought me here?" he asked. Ahsoka just smiled and pointed at the view screen, Lux saw the image of his home planet and his heart was full of dread. Lux knew what the death star could do after all he had read the plans.
"I think you recognise that ball of land don't you?" Ahsoka asked "It's Onderon, your home. Admiral how many people are on the planet at the moment?" she asked her admiral.
"330million. Ma'am" Long replied simply.
Ahsoka smiled evilly "330 Million that's a lot of people. All their lives now are in your hands. So tell me, where is the rebel base?" Ahsoka asked her tone full of malice. She also indicated for the gunners to start priming the death stars super weapon
Lux didn't say anything he just looked back at his home world then at Ahsoka. He wasn't going to tell her but maybe if he could stall her, the planet might be able to get evacuated. Lux sighed heavily "dantoine, their on dantoine." He said sounding defeated.
"Thank you Lux" Ahsoka said simply before smiling evilly "You may continue firing" Ahsoka said sounding bored. Sabine nodded and virtually skipped to the firing controls, this was going to be one of her greatest explosions yet.
"What you can't" Lux yelled struggling against the troopers.
"Oh but we can" Leia said as she picked up and held Lux with the force, forcing him to face the view screen, to watch the destruction of his home.
"You crossed me Lux; I said I was going to make you suffer. I was never going to spare Onderon. I want you to watch and bare the weight of 330million deaths." Ahsoka said as the turbo laser fired and surged towards onderon. Lux watched in horror as his home planet went up in a dazzling sceptical of lights and rock. He was dropped to the floor and Lux couldn't move he didn't know what to do; Ahsoka had destroyed his home out of spite.
"Wow that was fun" Sabine said joyfully.
Ahsoka just smiled and nodded "Yes it was"
"Take him away" Ahsoka ordered. Just then as Lux was taken away a console beeped "Ma'am a small ship is nearing the system." A tech reported.
"Good it looks, like Sabine's present has arrived" Ahsoka said as she laughed evilly. Today had been a good day in her book and she hoped it would get better.
