Chapter Four

Running through Jace's mind were a million possibilities. One was to try and run. Another was to accept Brenis's, his long time Master and guide, offer. Another was to jump. As Brenis heaved Jace's limp body up, he carried him near the evacuation door. The building was a sheer plunge of almost twenty-seven stories. The evacuation door was close to the edge. As Jace found no way out of this, he began to dismay. And then a brilliant plan came to him. Remembering his Jedi duties, Jace held close to Brenis as the man helped him out the door.

When they finally reach the steel door Jace said, 'Wait, I need to ask you something.'

'What is it?' Brenis asked lightly as if he had no time for such a thing.

'What if.. I changed my mind?' Before Brenis could object, Jace grabbed him by the shoulders and toppled backward over the building. Brenis fell with him. As Jace viewed the world of Kahto Musnu falling into the sky, he felt and urge in him. He instantly threw out his hand and caught the flag pole that stuck out of the building. The impact immediately broke his arm, but he raised his other and grabbed the pole to secure himself. He looked down and saw Brenis smash hard against the ground. He was dead.

Fifteen years pass. The Old Republic falls and the New Galactic Order replaces it. Jace Enders becomes a mysterious bounty hunter going by the alias of Demos. To be continued...
