Chapter 6 The Test

Revan fought hard, even though he had nothing to gain. Grevious was beginning to think he was in trouble. Sidious had always focused on the force and using it against Grevious rather than actual sword fighting, but Revan, he was exactly the opposite. Why had Sidious thought him ready? Why?

Revan struck once more with he single red saber. Grevious was fighting with four and still getting smashed. Grevious parried and struck at Revan, he blocked and did a soaring flip over Grevious.

" Good general. Use your reflexes pin him down before he does you." Sidious said. He was now quite comfortable sitting on a chair in the tomb. Revan struck again. This time Grevious was ready. He parried and cut another slit in Revan's mask.

Under the smoldering metal Revan snarled.

" Excellent Grevious. You have made him angry he may not be able to focus." Sidious said. Then he laughed and it sounded like a dieing Wampa.

Grevious struck again. Revan parried. That was it. Grevious brought the saber from his bottom left hand up and to Revan's neck. It stopped before it sliced through, the match was over Grevious had won.

" Good, you have talent and what was your name again?"

" Grevious." Grevious said bowing while deactivating his saber." Grevious II."

" Ah yes, I remember you told me before the fight." Revan said deactivating his saber. Sidious stepped off his chair, a sour look on his face.

" Come. We must go."

They stepped out into the dark hall and walked while conversing.

" You have potential for a droid." Revan said proudly.

" WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Grevious cried.

" You have potential."

" NO ONE CALLS ME DROID!" Grevious said pulling back his fist which Revan did not see.

" Grevious!" Sidious warned in a deadly voice.

Grevious lowered his fist as they stepped out into the desert canyon. Several passing apprentices gave Revan a weird look, probably because he was as nude as you can get with clothes on. Upon entering the academy the administrator met them.

" You went into Ragnos's tomb and survived!" He said. Then he saw Revan.

" Who the bloody hell is that?"

" You should not speak to me that way." Revan said menacingly his expression contorted under his mask.

" Why not? You're in my academy and personally I do not enjoy seeing your…"

" SILENCE!" Sidious cried." All hail Lord Revan, he has risen from the grave."

" Ha! Prove you are Lord Revan." The administrator spat. Revan then took off his mask reveling the face every Sith knew from his pictures in archives around the world. The man before them gasped like he had choked on a very large piece of food. Revan, Sidious, and Grevious strode past him, a metal hand banging his head.

" YOU!" The administrator said standing up pointing at Sidious who turned around as did Revan and Grevious.

" Yes?" Sidious asked airily.

" Program the droid with some respect." That was the last straw. Grevious had been called a droid at least three times today. Before Sidious could reply or the man could insult Grevious some more one metal fist crashed into his gut. He immediately puked blood all over. Then another fist smacked the top of his head crushing it and spewing brains everywhere. Grevious shook his hand off and they walked away. They passed fearful Sith apprentices to afraid to challenge them.

Once they reached the ship they took off, Sidious was never coming here again.
