When Worlds Collide: Part II, Chapters 4 and 5

Well. It seems that WWC I was a big enough success to warrant part II of the series. As it seems that nobody has voted for the outcome of this part, save one person (The vote is unanimous: 1 for Zekk stays single, zero for he doesn't). As such, it will force me too invent what happens to Malfoy and/or Snape. Given my imagination and perspective on how a dark Jedi should react, this probably means that one of them will probably die, or they will both receive life threatening injuries. Depending on my mood, I might spare Snape, but don't hold me too it.
You however, can change the outcome of this event. Please, please, please E-mail me at ST327_4@hotmail.com and place your votes! If you don't how can I know what the general public wants? In the mean time, please enjoy chapters 4 and 5 of When Worlds Collide.

Chapter 4: Exile
Harry was not surprised to find out that Zekk had decided to bunk with Gryffindor house for the duration of his stay. After all, they and the Slytherins were the only ones he had encountered so far and it appeared that Zekk did not like the Slytherins that much.
Harry was surprised however to find that Zekk had chosen to use the 4th year dormitory even though he was as old as the fifth years. Harry supposed that it had to do with the fact that Zekk had come to this particular window first and as such he felt more at home with the people from this room.
Currently Zekk was down in the common room with Ron playing a game of chess and he seemed to be doing quite well. The set that he had been lent took to him quickly and it appeared as if he knew exactly what Ron was going to do in advance. This greatly frustrated Ron and he had gone to making up new strategies. Zekk managed to counter everyone of these until Ron moved his queen into a position that was suicidal but would result in a checkmate of Zekk if the queen was taken or the loss of Zekk's black queen.
Zekk studied the game board for a moment and did something quite unexpected. He slid his queen away from it's position so that only a pawn blocked Ron's bishop from checkmating his king. Ron stared at the board for a moment, and took Zekk's pawn.
"Checkmate." Declared Ron with an air of satisfaction.
Zekk looked at the board and deftly slid his queen into the bishop's square. He looked at Ron's expression and he pointed at the board.
"Actually my friend I believe I have you in checkmate."
Ron looked at the board again and saw that his king was trapped with no pieces to block him or remove the threat. With a small clank the king threw his crown at the feet of Zekk's queen.
Ron continued to stare at the board.

After classes that day, Harry, Ron, and Hermione went down to visit Zekk, who was standing on one arm and lifting a large plow into the air behind Hagrid's shed. As they approached, a stone near the plow also began to rise as if it were attached to a string. They watched in silence as Zekk raised the stone into the air and it shot off out of view like a bullet into the forest.
When the plow began to raise into the air, the three exchanged nervous looks and backed away from Zekk, who's face was now sweating with strain. The plow continued to rise and it shot off towards the forest, but only managed to get about 5 feet away from Zekk before crashing back down into the earth. Zekk fell down with a curse and stood up slowly, dusting himself off. He looked up at Ron, Hermione, and Harry calmly.
"Well, that was better than last time. At least I didn't have to roll out of the way to avoid getting sliced in half."
The three looked at Zekk in shock and Ron spoke up.
"You mean you've been doing this without anyone knowing? And how come you weren't surprised to see us?"
"Yes, I've been working on this particular exercise for quite some time now. It's similar to what Master Skywalker teaches his students to do as a focusing exercise."
"So, you do this everyday?"
"Oh yes, several times a day. I'm not only training but I'm helping Hagrid move these rocks away from his cabin."
Hermione stepped forward.
"Zekk, we were wondering, what exactly are Jedi?"
"Well, like Professor Dumbledore said we are wizards in another galaxy. A Jedi draws his power from the force, a mystical energy field generated by all living thing. Organisms inside our cells called midi-chlorians allow people with a high enough concentration of them to tap into this field and focus the power through their mind to do their bidding. Some Jedi are skilled in the art of healing, while others are good with living creatures, and yet others like myself are extremely dexterous with mechanical objects."
"I see. But you said that you fell to the darkness what does this mean?"
"Hermione!", exclaimed Harry and Ron, not wanting to pry.
"It's no problem guys really. Like all things, the power of the force can be used for good but it can also be the cause of great evil. The most famous sect of dark Jedi were known as the brotherhood of the Sith, which caused the Jedi much trouble before power struggles within the brotherhood led to many Sith killing each other off. The only survivor of the brotherhood had stayed withdrawn from these power battles, and as such was not destroyed by Jedi as Exar-kun was. Taking up the title of Darth as his first name, this Sith warrior had seen the flaw in the brotherhood, and knew what must be done. He took on one apprentice, and when he was old and weak, he instructed his trained apprentice to go and seek out another Jedi for conversion. That way, there would be only two, an apprentice, and a master. The power lust the darkside brings was satisfied by this because the leader devoted all attention on the apprentice, and the apprentice was certain to take over when the master grew old.
The last of the Sith were exterminated during the Rebellion against the Empire, in which my great-grandfather Darth Vader, formerly known as Anakin Skywalker, betrayed his master Emperor Palpitine, to save his son, Luke Skywalker. It was thought that the Sith were completely wiped out but I stumbled upon the teachings of the brotherhood in a hidden Massai temple and began my descent into darkness. It was slow going, as I had no master and was forced to learn the evil teachings on my own. Fortunately, I had only truly begun to tap into the darkside when I was discovered by Mira Skywalker. I was exiled here to finish my recovery, and when I am done, I shall not return home. 30 years have passed since I left the Republic, put in a cryogenic sleep my body has aged slowly, while I was force fed knowledge from a computer."
Hermione looked at Zekk in concern. "That's awful! You mean you were exiled because you made a mistake?"
Zekk shook his head. "It wasn't a mistake Hermione. I almost fell to the darkside. If I had I would have been a threat to the entire Republic. They were right to send me here where I can't get a hold of a starship, or materials to make a lightsaber, or drag any other Jedi down with me. I will not be going back to my home. Ever. The Earth is where I am destined to stay."
Hermione would have continued the conversation, when Hagrid came around the cabin.
"Ey, now, leave off of Zekk. He's not very good at aiming those stones, and it's been sheer luck that nobody's been hit with one of em yet. I hope ye din't disturb his concentration." Hagrid looked them all sternly in the eye, rather unlike his usual, cheery self. It was Zekk who spoke up next, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione when they heard what he had to say.
"Hagrid it's fine. They didn't bother me during my exercise. I think I got the last one about 3 miles into the forest though. Thought I heard something yelp."
"Did ye know. Ye might want te be more careful where ye aim the stones, there's some decent creatures living in that forest. Oh and by the way, Parvati 'as recovered. Ye might want to pay a visit te her."
Zekk shrugged.
"Once I complete my training, then I can turn my attention to other things. Until then, I stay single."
Hagrid broke into a grin at Zekk's statement.
"Ye know o' course, that with what Parvati will be tellin the other girls, you're likely te become the most eligible bachelor over night don't ye? The valiant Zekk Soontir Fel, knight in shining armor."
Zekk's ears turned red and he could only reply with "Eh."

Chapter 5: The Word of God
Time seemed to pass quickly for Harry during the two weeks before Christmas vacation. His teachers heaped on homework and it was all he and Ron could do to keep up with the heavy load constantly assigned to them. Zekk on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying the physical tasks set out for him by Hagrid, and he had soon honed his already great physical abilities to an almost superhuman level. His mental skills had also improved to the point where he could hurl a rock at least a mile with a single thought or capture a butterfly without causing it any harm at all.
Despite his constant reassurances that he was still an apprentice, Harry found it hard to believe that Zekk's training was not yet complete. But still, Zekk had told them about Dorsk 81, the legendary knight who focused his force energy to the point where he threw an entire fleet of battleships across the galaxy with a single thought to save the jedi acedemy, but died in from the sheer use of the force he had summoned. Zekk also assured them that his power in no way came close to that of Master Skywalker, who through his sheer numbers of midi chlorians, was incapable of death from age. He had told Zekk that this was because he fought for life, and so life cherised him and would not let him die. ((Note: Even though Yoda fought for life also he died because as he put it, "Strong am I in the force, but not that strong")).
So when Christmas break rolled around, Harry, Ron, and Hermione all decided to stay at Hogwarts as usual, along with many other students. To their relief they found out that Draco had returned home along with Crabbe and Goyle for the break.
Zekk seemed to have a little trouble with the idea of Christianity. That some people on a fairly technologically advanced planet would put a religion so highly was slightly puzzling to him. When Ron asked Zekk is he had a religion, the response he got was a quotation of the jedi code. Hermione had tried to explain about the different religions of the world, but Zekk still couldn't grasp the subject. He had always thought that religion was practiced openly on by people on back water planets, and the fact that a planet that had deveopled space-flight on it's own seemed more than backwater.
Not that Zekk criticized them for religion. In fact he was quite eager to learn all he could about it, seeing how the earth was going to be his permanent home. Hagrid had helped by giving Zekk a bible, which Zekk read at night before going to bed as well as saying a few basic prayers taught to him by Proffesor McGonagal.
One day before Christmas, after moving aside in the hall to let a tree with Hagrid's feet sticking out under it by, Harry, Ron, and Hermione returned to the dormitory to find Zekk in one of the armchairs by the fire, his face buried in his bible.
"Zekk. What ya doing?"
Zekk looked up at them, a strange expression on his face.
"I never knew that there were jedi on this planet."
Hermione arched her eyebrows in surprise.
"Jedi? What do you mean jedi?"
Zekk pointed to a passage in his book.
"It says here that a man named Jesus walked across the water...and a little further on it tells about how he healed people..Those are jedi abilities."
"Zekk...Jesus wasn't a jedi...He was the son of God..."
Zekk looked at them in confusion.
"Uhh...God? As in the all powerful Lord of the earth? Jesus was his son?"
"Yep. That is where Jesus got his powers."
Zekk glanced back to the bible.
"Ok...well that cleared that one up for me..."
Zekk went back to reading his bible and Harry, Ron, and Hermione went to the dormitories to prepare for the feast.
