Chapter 11

Sarai's eyes were wide in anticipation. Her new master stood, looming over her, as if he was going to strike her down. And his lightsaber! It was one of the coolest ones she'd ever seen! Then, her master spoke.

"To your knees, my young apprentice." The voice said, still the same one she had remembered. Sarai did so, and then looked at him.

"I promise to uphold the ways of the dark side my master. I promise to end the Jedi Order…for all the pain they've caused.

"Good. Then we begin tomorrow."

The training had gone on for weeks. While Count Dooku and Ventress continued to fight their small time battles, Darth Xeron and Darth Maul trained the newly deemed Darth Xia. It was quite fitting. And she proved to be as strong as Skywalker was. Maul had taught her the basics of fighting technique's and how to control speed. Xereon had taught her how to use the force to one's advantage. They were growing increasingly more powerful each time they trained. And soon, they even managed to get Sarai to hate the Jedi. That was good. She wanted revenge on Yoda. She would have it.

Anakin was disappointed that Sarai had gone to the dark side, but it wasn't unexpected. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Rae had been doing training on their own. They had to hone their skills even more now that Darth Maul and Darth Xereon posed a threat. Obi-wan's skills had increased, and so had Rae's shooting skills. She could shoot a blaster rifle out of the training bot's hands without thinking twice, and knew exactly where to hit it.

Obi-wan walked down the hallways, and found Anakin looking out into the busy Coruscant.

"Are you alright Anakin?" Inquired Obi-wan.

"Yes, fine master. I was just thinking..."

"About what?"

"How Sarai could...just go to the dark side. She had so much potential. It wasn't her fault that her master died, or even that her anger had gotten the better of her..."

"Anakin, no one could really blame her. But...she followed her emotions, which is why she fell to the dark side.

Anakin nodded. Obi-wan smiled as the two walked off towards the council. On the way, Rae had met up with them, and followed. When they got to the council, Yoda spoke gravely, telling them of the plans of them learning about Count Dooku planning to get all the Separatists on Mustafar. Yet, there was another ripple in the force.

"Deal...with this Ripple, I will." Yoda said sternly, and went straight for a ship.

Anakin and Obi-wan Kenobi and Rae, all head out for Rae's ship. They were going to go deal with the Sith threat on Mustafar. But first, Anakin thought.

"Master, Rae, I'll meet you back here in fifteen minutes." His voice was soft...almost dark. He left, and head straight for Palpatine's office.

The figure sat in the grand office. His eyes looked outward towards his door. A smile crept onto his lips. Yes, the time was now.

"Yes Anakin...you will come to know me as master..." Darth Sidious spoke. "It may not be as...you would have it, but...at least you'll know truly, that the Sith will live on through us. You, Anakin Skywalker, and me, Soon to be Emperor Palpatine."

Darth Xereon grinned. It was time. Darth Maul's sickening grin showed as well. "My brother, let her have her time." Xereon nodded.

"Xia, the time is now." Darth Xia nodded.

"Yes, my master." She made her way towards a ship, going straight to Onderon, where she would face Master Yoda, and seek her revenge.
