Jedi Stories: episode #26 The Confrontation

Previously: Frey has walked into the trap and now must fight Poopsie. Catherine and John had a son, Tim Jedi. And now Lowdun has joined the fight.

"No, Frey, I can help you, I've got to."

"Lowdun…"

But Lowdun rushed over to Poopsie and ignited his lightsaber…and Poopsie turned around and reached his arm out at Lowdun…and…half using the Dark Force, and half using his own strength, picks up Lowdun and throws him across the room, slamming him against the wall. After hitting the wall, Lowdun landed on the ground with a thud. Somehow, he had managed to get his right arm (luckily he reacted quickly enough to de-activate his lightsaber) in the way…it had both hit the wall and the ground.

Poopsie says, "you fool. I could never fight you. You just began your training. I would never waste my time on you! I won't kill you as long as you don't cause me any more trouble. If I must, I will kill you."

Lowdun then tried to get up. But something was really wrong with his arm.

"Frey, I think I broke my arm. I'm sorry…I wish I could help you. Now I can't even fight."

But Poopsie ignored Lowdun and pretended he was not longer there. He started attacking Frey now more viciously than before. Poopsie did this partly to bring horror to Lowdun, who was watching.

Finally, it annoyed Lowdun so much that he said, "Please stop it! You're torturing him!" and Lowdun could see that his friend's strength was starting to dwindle.

"Oh shut up!"

And, a small spiteful smile now appeared on Poopsie's face. Frey was now so worn out that he looked as though he was about to collapse. Lowdun's arm was hurting badly now. Poopsie knew that Lowdun was in pain, both from his arm and from in seeing his friend beaten. Poopsie's next move would devastate Lowdun. Poopsie knew this, so he took all the more pleasure in it. Poopsie drew up his lightsaber…and stabbed Frey in a vital part. Not one that would kill him instantly, but one that would be a slow but sure death. Poopsie took great pleasure in seeing the suffering of others. As soon as Frey was stabbed, Poopsie started to take off…but Mary blocked the way. She stopped him. She hit him over the head with a lead pipe and knocked him out.

Lowdun, still on the ground, but had seen everything, screamed as Frey went down, "No!!!"

But when he tried to get up again, he couldn't because of his arm. Then Mary did her thing and Lowdun was never happier to see the person he loved.

"Mary!"

Mary ran over to him and helped him up.

"Where have you been?"

"Poopsie locked me and Ewok Luck in a room…it's the room before the hallway that led me there."

"But how did you get out?"

"I found a secret passageway that led me into the main hall. I came as fast as I cold. I knew you were in trouble. I heard when you first came in."

Lowdun glanced at Frey and knew that he was alive.

"Mary, I need some time alone with Frey. Here…(reaching in his pocket with his left hand, which was kind of awkward, for the key.) The first room on your left. I also need you to go outside to the shed. John and Catherine are there. Wait outside by the ship for me. It wont' be long. Now go quickly!"

Mary rushed off as Lowdun made his way to Frey. He knelt down next to him and cried.

"It's all my fault, Frey. If only I had been the one…"

Frey interrupted Lowdun.

"Lowdun, I don't think I have much time left, so I'll say first what I want you to know. There will be an Empire, Lowdun. (Not until now does Lowdun know that Frey is not crazy…he believes him fully.) I want you to pass on The Legend of The Chosen One to all the Jedi. Poopsie was a Sith…Lowdun; there will be an Empire. Find the Chosen One. Also, promise me that you will bring my family to safety. Make sure they are safe. Take care of them…"

"I promise…of course I will, Frey. I would have anyway, even if you had not asked me to. I'll never forget you, Frey."

"Lowdun, this was not your fault. It was my destiny. Lowdun, I'll always be with you."

As the seconds passed through the entire conversation, Frey's voice has been fading. And Frey died. Lowdun wept over him and dragged his body to the ship where Mary and the others were waiting for him.

Until next time!
