Jedi Attack

Luke ordered the transport ships to land far enough away from Tormel's temple that they hoped to get a surprise on him. Cara knew he would be expecting them.

Luke had also split the Jedi into two attack teams and two sub-teams within those teams so that no Jedi would be left alone. Cara was happy to be in the same group as Joran and Luke.

Cara briefly explained to the Jedi Master leading the second group about the location of the side entrance. He nodded as he she explained the trip wire and camera they would have to deal with.

Once fully ready they split off and went on their way. Cara walked over to her own group.

"Ready?" Luke asked her. She nodded.

The group of Jedi stealthily moved through the heavy undergrowth. The sky was as Cara had described it, dark and stormy. A lot of the rain was caught by the thick tree canopy above them, but the group was still pelted with a fair amount of it.

Using her lightsaber, Cara slashed down the vines and branches that where used to hide one of the side entrances. Joran tossed her an explosive, which she quickly placed on the door. Once she was out of the way Joran detonated it.

Luke was the first to activate his lightsaber. Cara, Joran and the rest of the Jedi quickly activated their own. Almost as soon as they had done that the group was assaulted with a wave of blaster fire.

"Cultists!" Cara yelled to Luke who nodded. She had already warned him that there would be a large amount acting as an army.

By deflecting most of the blaster fire the Jedi managed to fell a large portion of the oncoming Cultists.

"We're not gaining any ground!" Alran called to Luke from behind a rock. Cara took a detonator out of the pouch at her belt, activated it and throw it towards the Cultists. Ducking to avoid blaster bolts she heard the explosion. She earned a slightly disapproving glance from Luke for her attack. It wasn't a very Jedi-like thing to do.

Luke used the force to lift up the collapsed parts of the hallway and led the others down into the depths of the temple.


"My Lord!" a Cultist Leader said through the hologram. The Jedi have attacked in two groups and have gotten through the side entrances!

"I know!" Tormel thundered at him. "Move all available troops into combat, contact Jai's com-link and tell him to put himself in the way, he'll know what I mean!"

With that Tormel turned off the hologram and moved out of the way. He headed down one of the stairs and walked towards the room where the last part of the Ordeal was carried out. Cyan would come for him. Of that he was sure.


Luke had split up the team once they got deeper into the complex. Through com-link Luke was able to discover the other team leader had done the same. It seemed many of the cultist where fleeing. As Cara used her lightsabers to take down a Cultist Leader she felt a surge of power through the Force. She knew who was calling to her as well as she knew she wouldn't be able to resist. As the rest of the team moved forward she slipped down a side passage.

Joran saw her disappear and decided to follow her.


Jai stood in the room where Cara had fought May-Lan in the Ordeal. He could sense her coming closer. Finally he would have a chance to kill the little bitch. She would not survive him and she would not reach his Master.


Cara stepped into the dark room. As she stepped into the centre she felt Jai lunge for her. Quickly she spun around and blocked the attack. Jai glared at her and started to move forwards as he swung. Each time Cara was able to block it.

Jai took her by surprise when he feigned a blow and slapped her hard across her face. She stumbled back and dropped one of her lightsabers. When she put her hand against her face she felt blood. Something snapped in her.

With a cry of rage Cara lunged forward at Jai. He stumbled back under her assault.

Cara spun around gathering momentum and smashed her saber against Jai's. He fell backwards and landed with one hand on the glowing blade of the saber she had dropped.

Jai cried out in pain as most of his hand was severed off.

Cara laughed at him and used the Force to pull the saber back into her hand.

"You'll never turn from the Dark Side!" Jai spat at her as he gasped in pain.

"Cara!" Joran called from across the room.

"Go on! Finish me!" Jai yelled at her, "you've always hated me! Plus I have another reason! Remember you're mysterious Sith attacker who killed your Jedi master? That was me! And I delivered you to Master Tormel!"

"Cara, don't listen to him! If you strike him down in anger you will lose against the Dark Side! It will consume you!" Joran called to her desperately.

"You killed Arnav…" Cara growled at Jai and raised one of the sabers above her head.

"Do it!" Jai yelled.

"Cara don't! You're my friend! I can't let you do this." Joran yelled.

Cara lowered her weapon.

"Go Jai… get out of here!" she said quietly.

"What?" Jai asked in disbelief.

"Get out!" Cara yelled.

Jai got to his feet and stumbled out.

Joran walked over and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Let's finish this…" he said gently.


Jai stumbled down the hall. The first thing he did was run into one of the Jedi groups. His last thought was that his master had been willing to destroy him to pull Cyan back to the Dark Side.


Tormel was filled with more rage then he could remember. Jai had failed and Cyan was on her way! He would not allow the only living descendent of Enragion escape his grasp.


Cara stopped before opening the last door between her and Tormel and glanced at Joran.

"You don't have to do this with me. I could die." She said quietly

"Jedi don't abandon their friends. Especially friends that they have kissed" he joked as he answered her

Cara blushed a little "about that…"

"Won't be happening again? Yeah I figured, doesn't matter though, your still my friend." Joran said suddenly serious.

"Please don't interfere unless you have to… I need to do this myself if I can." Cara asked.

"I won't… your one of the strongest people I've met Cara, You can defeat him." Joran told her.

Cara opened the door.

Tormel stood in the centre of the room. His red Lightsaber glowed in the dimly lit room.

"I've been waiting for you Cara…It ends now!"
