A/N - Wow what a week! I was planning to speed up my updating since I've left you all in the climax but it seems the world doesn't like me at the moment! Anyway here's the next chapter, theres only 2-3 chps left of the first chronicles then i can start posting the second one! Which by the looks of things is almost twice as long! Anyway onto reveiws.
Thanks ShotgunChief! I've had the same reveiw problem as well. Glad you like that she went back to the Light Side! I was afraid you were all fans of her evil side Cyan and wouldn't like it when she turned back :)
Thanks Moreta Lynx! Glad you like the lightsaber duels, action writing used to be my worst point so all comments towards it (good or bad) are well loved :) Hope you survived the angry mob!
Thanks Nerwen Aldarion! and i agree, duel sabers are the coolest, praticulalry the design of turning them into a staff


The Storm

Cara rubbed her eyes and stretched. Across the table she was working at Alran gave her a withering look.

"This stuff isn't really my thing…" she mumbled.

Luke had asked Cara to assist in updating the Archive records with her knowledge of the Sith. He had assigned Alran to work with her, as his knowledge of the Archives was almost as vast as the Jedi who ran it. Unfortunately Alran didn't seme as willing to forgive her as much of the Jedi Order had been. Along with that was the fact that Cara had never really been much for this kind of study or work. Most of her Training, Jedi and Sith, had revolved around her skill with a Lightsaber and strengthening her ability to use the Force.

"Hope I'm not interrupting the party." Joran announced as he walked over. He grinned at Cara and sat down next to her.

Alran watched the exchange between the two. He couldn't believe that the two where friends again. Try as he might he could not fully trust Cara, the fact that she had been a Sith was lodged firmly in his mind and refused to be shaken off. However he knew she had been a Jedi before that so her change of sides wasn't as drastic as it could have been…but still.

"Cara do you want to work on velocities later?" Joran asked.

"Definitely!" Cara eagerly replied then glanced at Alran and felt a little guilty. "Sorry Alran…like I said, this isn't my thing."

"It's cool…" Alran shrugged and went back to inputting the data into the system.

Joran sighed and decided he would have to talk to Alran about this later. In the meantime he helped Cara clear up the table.


Luke watched the two Padawans move, seemingly without effort, through the attack and parry stances of the velocities. At this point he had asked Cara to not use two Lightsabers as Joran was trained in the use of one. Joran however had already requested permission to learn how to wield two Sabers. Luke was sure this request came mostly from his affection for Cara.

"Enough." Luke said and both Jedi stepped apart. "Cara, I'm going to ask you to change your stances."

"What do you mean Master Skywalker?" Cara asked him, her face betrayed her slight worry

"Are you able to go through the velocities using the aggressive Sith stances? You do not have to but I believe it would benefit Joran greatly to know how to combat Sith attackers. I would also be interested in seeing a full set." Luke continued watching her reactions carefully.

"If it will help…" Cara said and reactivated her Lightsaber.

After her first attack both Luke and Joran could see the difference in her. Instead of the effortless movements she executed when she reached out to the Light Side of the Force she moved with more then just aggression.

Luke wasn't sure if Joran could sense the Dark Side at work here. Cara wasn't free of it yet.

Luke soon called an end to the velocities. He decided to speak to the council on this matter.


May-Lan found it easier to enter the Jedi Temple then she had originally thought. Using the information a cultist spy had managed to send to her and Jai she quickly located Cyan's room…or Cara's room as she was now known. She entered and cloaked her presence. While hiding she felt a brief surge of the Dark Side and smirked. Cyan wasn't free of the Darkness yet.


Cara entered her room lost in her own thoughts. She placed her utility belt on the side of her bed and sat on the floor to meditate.

"Hello Cyan" May-Lan aid as she stepped forward and unmasked her presence.

"May-Lan!" Cara said as she leapt to her feet.

May-Lan smiled at her. "Still during on the Dark Side are you? There's hope for you yet, our Master may spare your life…"

"I'm a Jedi Padawan now! And my name is not Cyan it's Cara! The name my true Master gave me!" Cara yelled at her.

"It's not that easy to free yourself from the Dark Side Cyan," May-Lan sneered, "your anger still takes over your head far too easily. Master Tormel wants you alive. But if you don't agree to come I may have to remove one of your limbs. He never said unharmed."

"Never!" Cara announced.

With that May-Lan activated her Saber Staff and stepped between Cara and her weapons.

Cara felt a surge of rage inside her, which she quickly quashed. Instead she took a deep breath, as Arnav had told her to when she was young, and used the force to summon both Sabers to her hands. Immediately she forged the two together to form a Saber Staff.

"You haven't changed that much… neither has your Sabers!" May-Lan laughed as she attacked.

Cara quickly parried. Instead of allowing the Dark Side to assist her fighting she allowed the Light side to flow through her as a guide. Each attack from May-Lan's red blade was quickly parried by Cara's green blade.

When May-Lan realised she was gaining no ground against Cara she decided on her next strategy. Reaching her hand out she focused on Cara's throat and clenched her fist.

Cara gasped in shock as the Dark Side clenched around her throat.

"Your coming back with me Cyan! Master Tormel will deal with you now!" May-Lan mocked the struggling Padawan.

Cara did the only thing she could do.

May-Lan gasped as the blade from Cara's lightsaber was rammed through her chest. May-Lan glanced at Cara in shock before collapsing to the ground.

At that moment Joran ran in with Alran, Luke and three other Jedi.

Luke looked at the still form of the Twi-lek Sith. Cara was winning the battle against Cyan. Not once had she called upon the Dark Side to fight this fight for her

Joran wrapped his arms around Cara's quivering body. One look at his Master revealed his thoughts. Luke returned his glance. They both knew it wasn't over yet.


Tormel hurled a droid across the room in a fit of rage. Not only had Cyan turned to the Light side but she had also destroyed May-Lan!

Jai was still kneeling by his master's feet despite being more nervous of Tormel then he had ever been before.

"Prepare the Temple for battle! Cyan will strike as soon as she can!" Tormel thundered at Jai.

"Yes, Master." Jai replied and started to back out of the room with his head bowed.

Once out he breathed a sigh of relief. He was still alive. However he figured that was mostly down to the fact that Tormel needed him more then ever now. He was the last apprentice left and one of the most important fighters for this incoming battle.

Jai decided that he would personally deliver Cyan to his master, along with the head of the Padawan who turned her.


A/N - Warning! With only 4 days to Revenge of the Sith I may only be able to update once more as i don't want to stumble upon spoilers before I see it, which is about 3-4 days after it opens. Hopefully i will get the rest of this Chronicle up before then!
