Atton's POV
"Ok, we'll be nearing Korriban in few more hours. I estimate at around five hours in the least." I glanced to my right at Alanah, who was seated in the co-pilot's seat as usual. I noticed the almost glazed and distant look in her eyes, "Hey, are you ok?"
"Huh?" she looked over at me, "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just... I thought I felt a disturbance." she shook her head, "I'm probably just being paranoid." she said quietly.
There goes that feeling again. I have a bad feeling this whole Korriban thing. "What do think, we'll encounter on Korriban?" I asked her, keeping my eyes on the controls.
"I don't know," she sighed warily, "I only know what to expect from what the Masters told me back in my Padawan years. I know there are some old Sith tombs and maybe some artifacts, but that's all- from what I've been told. Kreia also told me of an abandoned Sith academy here."
I flipped a switch and leaned back in my chair, "Old tombs? Maybe we can explore some of them and salvage some pricey goods." I suggested while stroking my chin. We're in need of some credits anyways.
I saw Alanah cross her arms in the corner of my eye, "We don't have time to explore the tombs, Atton."
"Hey, come one, we might find something good in those tombs. Then, we can sell them and get some big credits." I grinned at her.
She shook her head disapprovingly, "Would you stop being a scoundrel!" she said, annoyed.
"A scoundrel?" I raised an eyebrow and smirked, "Hmm... I like the sound of that." Especially from her.
Alanah rolled her eyes, "I bet you do..."
I leaned on my armrest and grinned at her, "Admit it, you like scoundrels."
I saw a tint of red cover her face, but then, she turned to me and yelled, "Get your mind out of the gutter!"
"My mind isn't in the gutter... it's on you." I flirted.
"Seriously, when I'm not around, do you sit here all day and come up with those lines?" she scoffed, unimpressed.
"No- of course not." I leaned back into my chair and looked over at her, "When your not around, I can't help, but to think of you." I think my subconscious was screaming at me to stop or I'll end up getting slapped again, but hell, like I ever listen to my subconscious unless it's warning me of some real danger.
She rolled her eyes, "You're so unbelievably corny."
I winked at her, "You know you like it when I flirt with you-"
"Exile,"
The both of us jumped in our seats and looked back, "Kreia?" Alanah sighed in relief, while I glared at the old witch.
Kreia ignored my glare, "Exile, I would like a word with you in private."
"Of course, Kreia." I saw Alanah stand up and leave with Kreia.
I leaned back into my chair and fumed, 'Damn that old bat, she purposely interrupted us.'
Alanah's POV
I followed Kreia into the port dormitory and watched her take a seat on the floor like she always does, "Sit." she instructed.
I did as she told me to do and took a seat on the floor in front of her. I noticed the disapproving frown on her face, "Kreia, is something the matter?"
"Yes, Exile, there is." She crossed her arms, "I have noticed the growing relationship between you and the pilot." She frowned deeply, "I do not approve of it."
I frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
"What do you think I mean? I am not ignorant of the growing relationship that has formed between the two of you. Do you think I have not noticed?" she spat.
"Kreia-"
"I know you have learned the truth of his past. You know he is a murderer, that he once walked the path of the darkside." she warned.
"I am fully aware of his past, but he has turned away from that path a long time ago." I defended. He's different. "And anyways, there is nothing going on between Atton and I. Our relationship is completely platonic." I persuaded.
She ignored me, "Have you forgotten our bond, Exile? I can sense everything you feel. I can even sense your emotions." I flinched, I had forgotten about our bond. "I can easily sense the feeling emitting from you whenever you are around him- love. You love him... you even lust for him as he does for you."
I blushed heavily, from both embarrassment and frustration, 'There is no emotion; there is peace.' I tried calming myself down, "Kreia, I am a Jedi... and Jedi do not harbor such feelings."
"You are a Jedi, correct, but not a full Jedi. In spite of that, Jedi can love, but they can also choose to love or not to. Are you aware of the Jedi Jolee Bindo?"
"Yes, yes, I know about him," I sighed frustratingly, "'Pulling a Bindo.' I know- I know. Master Vrook only told me this story a thousand times."
"Then you aware of the dangers of love. It can and does lead to darker emotions- hate, lust, revenge... in giving into love, you are at risk of losing yourself or the person you care for to the darkside." she scowled. "Heed my words, Exile."
I hung my head low, "I..." I sighed, "I will heed your warning, Kreia. Is this all that you wanted to discuss."
"Yes, you may go now. I must meditate." she dismissed.
I slowly got up and left Kreia to her meditation. As I walked through the halls of the Ebon Hawk, I felt haunted by Kreia's words.
"Then you aware of the dangers of love. It can and does lead to darker emotions- hate, lust, revenge... in giving into love, you are at risk of losing yourself or the person you care for to the darkside."
Unknown to me, I found myself in the cargo hold with the growing need to meditate. I locked myself in the cargo hold and sat down in the center of the room. "There is no emotion; there is peace." I said as I closed my eyes. I found no peace. My thought kept going back to Kreia's words.
"... in giving into love, you are at risk of losing yourself or the person you care for to the darkside."
'If I gave into my emotions... am I willing to risk myself or Atton to the darkside?' This was the question that echoed in my mind. I waited in silence, as if waiting for an answer to pop up out of nowhere. There was none. Only I could answer that question.
In giving into love...
And the answer to that question...
... you are at risk of losing yourself...
... the answer was...
... or the person you love to the darkside...
"Atton..." I whispered sadly, hanging my head low.
'Are you willing to lose him, dearest Exile?' a voice echoed in my head- Kreia.
... no...
'A wise decision, Exile.'
Hours Later...
We arrived on Korriban hours later. I had called everyone to the main hold to discuss our current mission. "Atton, Visas, and I will go out and explore around the ruins for Master Vash. I want everyone to stay on the ship until we come back. Are there any objections?" I looked around the room and saw none. "Very well." I looked over to Atton and Visas and signaled them to come. We left the main hold and walked our way down the loading ramp.
We stopped and looked around. The view around us was desolate and eerie. The dark energy was strong here and I could feel the echoes of what was once here.
I saw Atton cross his arms in the corner of my eye, "Why the hell would your Jedi Master want to hide here?"
"The dark energy is strong here. There are even echoes in the wind. I am not surprise a Jedi Master would go here. To learn and try to understand the way of the Sith- to learn why some Jedi fall." Visas answered solemnly.
Atton's POV
"I still say that Jedi Master must be high on spice to want to stay in this place." I remarked. Alanah walked a head of us and stopped, as if she was listening to something. I rolled my eyes. No doubt Kreia was giving her one of her hour long lectures. I continued to observe my surroundings, 'Dust... tombs...rocks... more dust... giant statues... big rocks... small rocks... even more rocks.' My eyes then spotted something in the short distance. I walked over and noticed it was a corpse. It looked like it had been here for years now. I kneeled before it and started looking for anything valuable left. 'Pure Pazaak!' I looked at the objects I had just salvaged from the body; 253 credits and an orange light saber crystal. Not bad at all.
I stood up and ran over to Alanah, who was now standing in front of a tomb with Visas, "Hey, looked what I found." I exclaimed, standing on front of the women while showing them the freshly salvaged goods in my hands.
Alanah was brought out of her thoughts and looked at the objects in my hands. She looked up at my face with a curious look, "Where did you find these?" she asked.
"Over there. Who would have thought a corpse would be holding a light saber crystal and 253 credits." I answered as I pointed to the abandoned corpse. I looked back at Alanah and raised an eyebrow, "Something up?"
Alanah had an alarmed expression on her face, "Atton... you didn't..."
I was confused, "I didn't what-" I was interrupted by a loud roar over head. "What the hell was that!"
Both Visas and Alanah dropped into a defensive stance and ignited their light sabers. I gripped the hilt of mine and looked around. I saw nothing at first, but soon discovered three huge shimmering outlines. The outlines began heading towards us angrily. Before either Visas or I could react, Alanah stepped forward and used her Force Wave. What were once just shimmering outlines were now huge vicious looking lizards and by the force of Alanah's Force Wave, they were knocked back a few feet and stunned. Without hesitation, Alanah and Visas ran ahead, each to a separate creature and began slaying them. I looked over to a lone stunned and ran over to it, while igniting my light saber. I used Force Lightning on it and before it had a chance, I stabbed my double bladed light saber through its head- killing it instantly. I looked over to Alanah and Visas, noticing they had already slain the other two beasts.
They walked over to me, "Are you ok?" Alanah asked.
"I'm fine, but what in the hell were those beasts?" I asked, pointing to the now deceased beast beside me.
"Those are Hississ, the guardians of the dead in this planet." Visas answered, "They attacked, because you disturbed the bodies of the dead."
Alanah stared at me sternly, "That mean we should leave the bodies alone. No looting, Atton." she sternly warned.
"What! It's not like I knew what would happen." I replied defensively.
Alanah sighed and walked past me with Visas following her, "Just leave the bodies alone, Atton. I do not want to face anymore Hississ while we're here." I fumed as I followed the two through the valley.
After a few minutes of walking through the desolate valley, we came upon an narrow path and a 'distinct' smell getting stronger as we made our way through the path. We then came upon a cave. "What the hell is that smell! Smells worse than an over crowded bantha stable." I remarked disgustedly, covering my nose from the strong scent.
"Listen- the wind from the cave tells of a great power within... recently awakened." Visas commented.
Visas took this whole dark energy thing so damn seriously. I rolled my eyes, "Yes, a great powerful stench!" I said in a snide remark, earning me a 'glare' from the blinded Jedi. Alanah ignored both of us and stared intently at the cave. I looked over to her, "We aren't going inside are we?"
Alanah glanced at me, "No, we don't have time to." she answered as she continued up the trail. Visas and I followed silently. We continued through the path until we were attacked by a small herd of tuk'atas, which were quickly disposed of. We continued to the entrance and found it wide open.
"Looks like someone left the doors of the Academy wide open. Heh, this doesn't look suspicions at all." I remarked sarcastically.
"The entrance was left open on purpose. Someone is expecting us." Visas commented.
"I have a bad feeling about this." I said as we entered the dark academy. As we entered, I looked around. This place was eerie and I couldn't help but feel a slight chill run up my spine.
"Whatever occurred here in the past, it definitely left its mark." Alanah said, walking to the center of the room.
"What do you mean?" I asked as I walked around, looking around the vacant room.
"There are echos here." Visas whispered absently, "I feel a large about of hate and anger here. It is... unsettling."
"I feel it too. It's as if our mere presence here is disturbing this place." Alanah replied back.
There was a loud thud from behind, causing all of us to jump in surprise. We looked back and discovered the doors had closed behind us. "Oh hell, no!" I cursed, running over to the doors. "Frack! The damn thing is locked!"
She calmly walked over to the door and examined the door carefully, "You're right and there seems to be no way to open it from here."
"We are not alone here, it seems." Visas observed.
"Well, isn't this great!" I scoffed angrily. Sorry, but I do not want to be locked up in this creepy place.
Alanah frowned at me, "There has to be a computer terminal here that can open the doors. While we search for one, we can search around for Master Vash."
I raised and eyebrow and crossed my arms, "How you even know she is still here?" I asked curiously. If a Jedi Master was here, I think I would have felt them through the Force- thanks to Alanah's training. But, since landing, I haven't felt anything. Just a lot of emptiness here and a small tinge of the dark energy that Visas keeps mentioning.
I noticed Alanah tense up a bit, "I know she's here. I... felt it..." she said softly, almost distantly. She walking passed me and headed through the empty hallway with Visas following silently behind her.
'She felt it? What does that mean?' I shook my head and sighed. I gave one last look at the door behind me before I ran to catch up to Alanah and Visas. We walked through the dark and empty hallway until we were only a few feet from the entrance to the center chamber. Alanah stopped suddenly followed by Visas. "What's wrong?" I asked.
"Wait here." Alanah simply ordered, leaving Visas and I to ponder her motives. She calmly walked closer to the entrance and stopped.
"What the hell is she trying to do?" I asked out loud. Visas remained silent and simply watched Alanah, as if she were anticipating her to do something. I watched her intently. She still stood there; not moving an inch. About a second later, she raised her right hand towards the entrance- sending a Force Wave. There were two pairs of painful grunts that echoed throughout the halls followed by the sounds of bodies falling to the ground. She looked back at us and signaled for us to follow. I ran to her side, "What was that?"
She ignored me and glared in front of her. I followed her gaze and saw the bodies of two Sith Assassins laying limp on the floor across the chamber. "Sith Assassins... just like the ones from Peragus." she replied. I stared at her silently. Her normal relaxed expression had changed ever since landing on Korriban. I noticed how distant she became, especially around me.
"I sense there are more of them lurking around in the shadows." Visas stated, walking over to the locked door in the corner.
Alanah grabbed the hilt of her light saber and headed to the closed doors in the corner to her left. "I'll explore the west of the Academy," she said while igniting her light saber and using it to pry open the doors in front of her, "I want you and Visas to explore the east."
I stared at her in disbelief, "You're kidding me, right? You actually want us to split up when there are those tuk'ata things running around and Sith Assassins lurking around- waiting to us... waiting to kill you." She can't be serious... right?
She kept her back towards me and was currently preoccupied with prying the doors open, "If we spilt up, we can explore the Academy faster. The faster we do, the faster we find Master Vash and the faster we will find a terminal that can open the exit to the Academy." she answered with an annoyed tone in her voice. The she pulled out her light saber from the doors and they flung open.
Dammit, she was right. But, I'll be damned if she is going to explore by herself. "At least let me come with you. You'll be outnumbered easily."
She glanced over her shoulder to me, "Atton- I suggest you follow the orders you were instructed with." she said, her voice full of annoyance and ice.
'Damn stubborn woman.', I growled irritatingly. "If you think I'm going to just let you explore this place alone than-"
"Atton- just shut up and do what you are told." She spat, "I will not keep arguing with you about this." She turned around and calmly walked away.
It took me a while to recover from her outburst. 'What the fracking hell is her problem!' I screamed in my mind. I frowned deeply and scoffed, "Whatever..." and stormed to the East entrance, fuming.
Alanah's POV
I felt a ping of guilt ache in my heart, 'I shouldn't have yelled at him.' I thought to myself.
"Do not mind the fool, Exile." Kreia said telepathically through our bond, "Do not allow yourself to get distracted at this point."
I sighed, 'I know...' I walked through the empty hall of what seemed like small dormitory with only four rooms. It looked like a disaster here. The beds were turned over, sheets ripped and tattered, desks were shattered, and debris was everywhere. It was deadly silent here; creating the feeling of uneasiness. I was not alone here.
I stood silently, listening for any signs of life in the room.
"Remember what I said when I taught you to listen through the Force." Kreia reminded, "Listen."
I centered myself and concentrated on the Force. I heard the sound of breathing coming from different directions. I then used the Force on my sight- the technique Visas taught me. I looked around and saw four red figured slowly sneaking to surround me- two in from and two from behind.
I reached over for the hilt of my light saber and waited. The figures all raised their weapons and lunged at me at once. I ignited my light saber and slashed the attackers in front of me across their chests while sending a Force Wave to the attackers in front of me. My vision returned normal and I glare at the two Sith who were on their knees, clutching their chests as if they were trying to stop the blood that was spilling out from their wounds. I raised my right hand to the air and simply summoned a Force Storm that instantly ended all four of their lives. I walked around the bodies, avoiding the pool of blood surrounding them and began exploring the rooms at the end of the hallway. I searched the two metal boxes and looting them of any useful items.
"There is nothing more in this room. I suggest you move on." Kreia suggested.
I walked out of the small dormitory and entered the central chamber. My eyes traveled towards an entrance leading toward another hallway. 'Something is there.'
I walked over to the entrance and jumped slightly as a loud hiss followed by a smug of poisonous gas emitted from the hallway. 'Something is definitely here.' I thought to myself as I watched the poisonous vapors began to disappear.
"Indeed you are correct. I sense that what you are looking for my greet you in the end."
I nodded and ran down the hallway, quickly enough to avoid the poisonous gas. I finally reached down the hallway and was greeted by two doors at two my left and right. I clutched the light saber in my right hand tightly when I heard a hiss from behind me- and it wasn't a hiss from the poisonous vents. I spun around and blocked an attack with my light saber. Silver collied with red as I tried to push the Sith back. The Sith stumbled back, but he suddenly raised his hand as of he was controlling the Force. I screamed out in pain as I felt like my life was being pulled from my body. The pain stopped and I started to feel weaker and slightly dizzy. The Sith used this opportunity to swing this light saber at me, but I dodged it just in time. I shrugged off the dizzy feeling I was having and tried to concentrate on my opponent.
"Focus."
I tightened my grip on my light saber as the Sith and I circled eachother. He attacked first, aiming his light saber to stab my stomach. I moved out of the way and kneed him in his stomach, causing to grunt painfully. I brought my light saber over head and rammed it through his back. The sith collapsed on the floor with a thud. There was no sigh of life in him and I left his body to rot here in this damned Academy.
I walked over to the door on my left and examined it. 'Damn, it's locked!' I cursed mentally. I felt a slight disturbance and quickly moved aside, nearly missing the violet blade of a light saber. I spun around and sent a Force Wave through the hallway, revealing two more Sith Assassin. They were flung across the hall and stunned. I glanced at the violet light saber that was still embedded in the door. I grinned wickedly at it and smirked back at the weaponless Sith, "I think you forgot your light saber," I said smugly as I yanked it out of the door with my left hand, "But I think I'll let you have it back." I threw the still ignited light saber at the weaponless Sith. He hissed in pain as the light saber pierced through his chest. He stumbled back and finally fell to the ground beneath him. The other Sith finally recovered and ran at me with angry fury, raising his light saber to strike at me. I blocked his attack and successfully blocked his furies. Our weapons clashed as we met head on, trying to push each other off. He almost overpowered me, but I was able to finally push him off. He stumbled backwards, but held his ground. I stood in a defensive stance and waited for him to make his move. I heard the hiss of the poisonous vents and glanced behind me. When I looked back the Sith lunged at me; ready to strike at me. I jumped out of the way, but he was able to at least slash my side. I gasped in pain and fell to my knees, while clutching my right side. I had even dropped my weapon. 'Frack!' I cursed, I brought my left hand from the fresh wound and stared at it. My own blood had stained my hand and was quickly drenching my robes. I glared at the Sith, who was now standing a few feet in front of me. He clutched the hilt of his light saber tightly and slowly walked over to me.
'Overconfidence. He thinks just because he has successfully inflicted pain upon me, he has a chance to win.' I glared at the Sith coldly, 'Never underestimate an opponent- one of the first things I learned during my years as a student at the Enclave.'
The Sith was now standing directly in front of me and raised his weapon over his head. The glowing red blade was pointed downward. Positioned to stab me- to kill me. I heard the hiss of vent releasing more poisonous gas. I grinned. Before he had the chance to even strike at me I used the Force to send a massive wave; sending him flying across the hallway as another smog of poison was released. The Sith began to cough and choke from the poison beginning to suffocate him. He eventually fell to the floor; dead from the poison.
I gave out a heavy sigh, 'I really hate this place now.' Ignoring the sharp pain at my side, I managed to pull myself up. My wound was still bleeding and was still soaking my robes. The once white fabric was drenched in crimson red. Using the Force, I was able to heal the wound and the pain had vanished. I glanced over to my light saber, which had switch off when I had dropped it. I walked over and pick it up, then examined it for any damages. Fortunately, there were none. A loud rumble echoed throughout the room and the doors to my left had suddenly opened, causing me to jump. I walked into the room with caution, 'What is this?' The room was filled with caged tuk'atas- all unhealthily skinny.
"This was a training room. The Sith trainees would practice here- usually practicing their Force powers and melee skills on their 'unfortunate' slaves."
"Their slaves? But, what if they killed them?"
"Slaves were just slaves- it did not matter if they died or not. To the Sith, they were just tools."
'Sounds like a Sith scum.' I frowned. This room held a lot of anger, helplessness, and pain; it sent echoes throughout the room that sent chills running up my spin. I noticed the computer terminal in the center of the room. Once I was able to access it, the doors behind me closed. "No, what did I do!" said I cried. I ran over to the door and tried to examine a way to reopen the doors.
"Alanah?" a voice called out from the other side of the door.
I recognized that voice, "Atton?" I whispered. Behind me, I heard the creaking sounds of rusty cages opening up and the growls of restless and angry tuk'atas. '... Frack...'
Atton's POV
"Alanah!" I yelled angrily, while banging the doors with my fist. The was locked tightly and even my security skills couldn't open these blasted doors up. I growled angrily as I heard the unmistakable sounds of a light saber in some sort of combat.
"She will be fine." Visas stated calmly.
I glared back at her, "How can you say that when she's locked in a room full of tuk'atas!"
She frowned, "You should have more faith in her- faith in the Force."
I scoffed, 'How can she be so calm in this situation?' I shook my head, 'But she's right.' I sighed and leaned on the door. I listened to the sounds of muffled sounds of a blazing light saber and tuk'ata grunts. 'I'm pathetic,' I glared down at the small puddle of blood in the center of the room, 'The only reason I wanted to learn how to use the Force was to help her- to protect her. Heh, like she'll accept any help from me... that stubborn, moody ass-'
The doors behind me opened up and I fell straight on my ass, "Son of a-"
"Atton?" I looked up and met her gaze. She looked absolutely exhausted. Her hair had strands of hair all over the place, her robes were slightly tattered, and-
My eyes widened as I spotted the large blood stain at her side, "What the hell happened?" I pointed to her side as I staggered up.
She sighed, "Sith scum. I'm alright though." she looked up at me, "What happened to your cheek?" She pointed at the thin cut along the right side of my cheek.
I placed my hand on the scare, "It's nothing- I just let my guard down and a Sith appeared out of nowhere." In truth, I got it right after I hacked into the computer terminal and unlocked the training room doors. I saw Alanah walk into the training room through the camera and I just ran off to stop her. She didn't know anything about these 'tests' and I wanted to stop her before she took it alone. Before I even exited the dormitories, a Sith appeared and attacked me.
She frowned slightly and I saw a small glint of worry in her eyes. She turned her attention to Visas, "Are you injured as well, Visas."
Visas shook her head, "I am uninjured."
Alanah nodded her head and looked over at me, "Did you find anyway to open the doors to the exit?"
"No, but the computer I hacked into stated the doors can be unlocked from a terminal inside that room." I pointed to the doors in front of us. As if on cue, the doors opened- revealing a dimly lit room. But, the glow of the computer screen was seen. 'Pure pazaak.' I grinned. In the corner of my eye, I saw Alanah tense up and her demeanor change.
She walked past Visas and I without a word. I glanced over at Visas; she nodded and we follow her in the room. What we encountered was not a pretty sight at all. Alanah let out a horrified gasp and stumbled backwards a bit.
"Ah yes, I felt this Jedi's death shortly after we arrived on Korriban." Visas revealed, standing calmly as she stare at the dead Jedi Master's corpse in the cage.
I cross my arms, "You could have said something about it. Instead you let us run around this hell hole searching for a corpse!" I sneered at her.
"I-I felt it too..." Alanah whispered dejectedly.
"You what! So why keep us searching for her if you knew she was already dead?" I frowned. We risked our lives here, only to find a corpse. If you ask me, this was a big, dangerous waste of time.
Alanah walked over to the body and slumped to the floor, "I didn't want to believe it. I had to see it for myself." she replied quietly, almost like a whisper. "Master Vash... she was one of the Jedi who exiled me." she hung her head down, "I was too late..."
Visas walked over to Master Vash's body and kneeled down to pick up something that was beside her body. It was a datapad. Visas silently gave the datapad to Alanah. She accepted it and read over it once. I walked over to her, "What does it say?"
"She wrote about Sith and how she wasn't going to let them capture her." Alanah rose to her feet and placed the datapad in her robe. "Atton, use the terminal to unlock the exit." she ordered solemnly.
"You got it. It's about time we get the hell out of this place anyways." I said as I walked over to the terminal.
Author's Notes: :Author gives readers sad puppy eyes: I'M SO SORRY! PLEASE FORGIVE ME:clears throat: Anyways, I'm truly sorry this took so extremely long to update. I really appreciate the patience- I truly do. A lot of things have happened to me to... "distract" me from writing. I've been very busy lately. :cries: Just to inform you all- my lovely readers, expect another late up update for the next chapter as well. I'll be going on vacation for about three to four days. Since I have no means of computer technology with me during my vacation. But I'll use the spare time I'll have to create an outline for the next chapter, which will be no problem since I already know what I want the eleventh chapter to be about. Just to give you a hint: Sion, cave, and Atton freaking out like a crazed ronto. Oh... and MAYBE some Exile&Disciple Fluff. YES, you did not hear(or read) me wrong. I'll be adding Mical/Disciple to the picture more often. He is an important factor in the whole Exile&Atton romance... or will it'll be Exile&Mical? Who knows... MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHH:cough: Did I just earn some DS points :smiles evily: Anyways, let me explain this chapter a bit. It's simply the Korriban exploration- which I might add is my least favorite planet to travel to on KOTOR II. I hated the Sith and Kreia's long ass lectures. :cough: Back on topic, Kreia is manipulating poor Alanah, the Exile, to be wary of her love for Atton. If you observed in this chapter, she snapped at him pretty harshly, didn't she? She's only trying to push Atton away- to distance herself from him. Atton will find this out soon and then a whole big confrontation will ensue. But that's for later chapters. Oh and you may have asked why I choose Atton to explore with Alanah and Visas. I chose him because that's what I did the in game. Plus, he is pretty hilarious with his little snipe remarks on Korriban. Quote: "Yes, a great powerful stench." End Quote. :snickers: I love Atton! Thank you to all my readers and reviewers! See ya when I get back from vacation :runs of to start packing:

Nina Rand- It sound very interesting, I can't wait to read it. Keep up the great job on your story by the way! Thanks for reviewing!
Obsidian Thirteen- I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for reviewing!
Kuramas Girl Angel- Yup, can you believe they even considered on killing off Atton:shakes fist at Obsidian: It was said if you got more influence over Atton than with Mical and was fully LS; Atton was suppose to encounter Sion and fight him. Then Sion would win and torture him! The Exile would later find Atton. He'd confess his love for the Exile and then dies. Obsidian doesn't like the fangirls. :frowns: Don't say that about your story- it's not crap! I really like it and it's very lighthearted and cute! Thanks for reviewing!
LuvsDelkoSpeed- I'm glad like it! I hope you continue to read the future chapters. Thanks for reviewing!
Danni Rand- :lol: I thought about it, but I'll save the killing of Kreia for the Exile in the end. Believe me, Kreia will get what's coming to her. Thanks for reviewing!
The Fallen Jedi- I'm happy you liked it. I hope you'll like the future chapters as well. Thanks for reviewing!
