On the Star Forge...
"...Here we would need mass co-ordination, Bastilla, we'll need your Battle Meditation for that." Revan said looking up. Revan was leaning on a huge table and pointing, and this table had the Galactic Map on. Every System, Planet, Star and Asteroid Belt was marked. The map was, in fact, a flat 2-D hologram, generated by the table. At the moment, Revan was pointing at Manaan. Bastilla was on the other side of the table, with the three top ranking Admirals in the Sith Fleet. Bastilla nodded, "Of course my Lord." She said. But then, Admiral Klen'dathu spoke up. "But Sir, wouldn't Manaan simply reel from the size of our Fleet? We have countless Interdictor Cruisers, and the Selkath nothing more than cowards!" he said, confident and enquiring. Revan nodded, and then, he raised his hand, and Lightning came out, hitting the Admiral square in the chest. The Admiral was thrown back, and the others, apart from Bastilla, flinched. "Good point Admiral, but I already took that into account." he started, and he waited for Klen'dathu to get up before continuing. As Klen'dathu got up, he noticed a small black hole in his Grey Sith Uniform. As he felt into it, he felt it go into his skin. He was relieved however, that it didn't go into his skin that deep. He then brushed himself off, and then stood with the other Admirals.
"As I was saying," Revan started, "I already took that into account Admiral. But the Selkath aren't cowards. They're...arrogant, to say in the least. They think that because they produce Kolto, the Galaxy's best healing agent, they think they have enough leverage with us and the Republic, and believe that they can keep on 'toying' with us. But, on my Quest to find the Star Forge, I went to Manaan to collect a Star Map, but there was a huge Shark in the way. Seeing as I was underwater, I couldn't use my Force Powers or Lightsabre, so I went over to the Kolto Harvester nearby, and, I pumped some Shark Poison that I was given into the Harvester. The Poison quickly mixed with the Kolto, and the Shark went close to the vents, and it was poisoned instantly. However, when I collected the Star Map, I realised the Kolto was changed by the poison. I'd contaminated the supply, and that is why Manaan hasn't shipped any Kolto recently. But, the Manaan government is keeping the incident under wraps, and of course, they are pretending the Kolto is fine, and that they just don't want to ship anymore of it, giving them more false security." He said.
"Now do you understand Admiral?" Revan asked. The Admiral nodded. "Good, now, your job is to obey and execute my orders, not to put in your questions. Do you all understand?" Revan asked. After the three Admirals nodded, Revan grinned. "That'll be all then Admirals. Go back to your Vessels, and brief the others. We launch tomorrow." He said. The three Admirals bowed and they all said, "We exist to serve you, My Lord." As everyone did when they were about to leave Revan's presence. And with that, they turned on heel, and started towards the Chamber doors. Revan then noticed that Bastilla hadn't done the same. He turned to her. "What else requires my attention my Apprentice?" he asked. Bastilla turned behind her, and watched the three Admirals leave. She then turned back. "Yes there is my Lord." She said. She put her hands to her sides and walked over to Revan. Revan noted that she seemed to walk...ever so seductively. Revan turned to face her. "Do not hesitate to speak my Apprentice, the Bond we share is special, you do not need to show so much respect." He said. But Bastilla shook her head. "My Lord, there is something I have been meaning to tell you since we first left Dantooine. It's something I've wanted to say, but we've never had the privacy to do so, but now we do." She started. Revan nodded. "So Bastilla, what is it that you need to tell me?" he said. Bastilla looked up, and took one of Revan's hands. "Revan...I...Love you." She said passionately. She let go of Revan's hand. But it stayed where it was a second, and then Revan raised it, and he stroked her beautiful face. "Bastilla..." he started.
He slowly brought his head close to hers, and then Bastilla knew: Revan loved her. They both looked each other passionately in the eyes, showing their love through their special bond, and then...they both kissed. It lasted a few seconds, but time seemed to slow down for both of them, making it seem like it lasted forever. They both stopped, and then Revan stroked her face again. "I love you as well." He said. Bastilla smiled, and they both held hands, and embraced each other...
