Quickly as she could, Blake shifted her weapon into gun-mode and tried to shoot Vader. It resulted in little effort as Vader deflected the shots with ease before raising his unoccupied hand with the Force pushed Blake hard against the wall.
"You are no Jedi, but this power you posest interests me. What is it?" Vader says as he can sense Blake's fear, but she still decides to fight.
"You're smart. I'm sure..." Blake says as she glared at the dark lord. She could feel a hate-filled aura coming off this dark being. She felt a spike of fear run through her from looking at him then back at Beacon when she faced Adam. "You can figure it out on your ow-"
Before Blake could react, the Dark Lord was now in front of her. He strikes at her head with his lightsaber with incredible speed, but she quickly ducks fast and rolled out the way. Vader follows up with a thrust and stabs her in the chest with his red blade. Only for Blake to vanish to black mist for the Sith Lord had stabbed a Shadow clone. He then blocks more gunshots that came at him behind as that was where Blake had appeared next. Since there are no laser bolts, he could not redirect them back to her.
Vader could have killed Blake when he attempted to behead her, but he held back. Wanting to test this young girl, studying her combat abilities. From the look in her eyes, he can tell she is a smart fighter and was trying to catch him off guard. The clone agility she performed in front of him was impressive, he mentally admitted. It would be something that would take many Jedi off guard for sure.
As for Blake, she was afraid this being was powerful. She had a feeling that he was holding back since he could have killed her with that grip he had her in earlier with the Force. Maybe even could have killed her when he tried to behead her with his red lightsaber if given a chance. She knew her Aura would not withstand the powerful beam weapon if it hit her.
"You have much fear in you along with regret. You must have done something in your past that you wished you never done." Vader says as he decides to end this quick, and Blake found him right in front of her again. Blake, in a panic, tries to block it by using her weapons' sheath.
But as she should have expected, Vader cut it in half. The teen went in with a thrust of her sword, only for the Sith Lord to grab it with his black-gloved hand. Stopping her dead and making Blake stumble off balance. Vader didn't wait for her to recover before waving his red blade in front of them and serving Huntress weapon in half.
Blake could stare dumbly at her weapon as she brought it back to her face in disbelief. Gambol Shroud had been with her for years only to be horribly dismantled within a minute. Too distracted by the loss of her weapon, she couldn't react fast enough before being grabbed by the neck by the black glove of the Dark Lord. In a short time, this black suit being defeated Blake with ease. Now holding her life by the neck.
Blake tried to get the iron grip off her neck but failed as she looks in fear at the Dark lord. "Wh-what do you want from me! You monster!" Blake shouted her cool lost. She was downright afraid of this being. Wonder what this creature of Darkness even is as his breathing made strikes fear in her heart.
If Vader was about to say something, it was interrupted when he heard the voice of someone he has not heard of in years. "Let her go, Vader."
The two looked, one in Hope the other in rage. It was Obi-wan Kanobi, blue lightsaber out and ready.
Those exact words brought memories back to Vader when he last dueled his former Master on Mustafar when he did not have the suit he wore now. Vader watched as Kanobi marched towards him.
"Let. Her. Go." Ben demanded. He shared similar feelings with Vader choking Padme when he went to face him on that hellish world.
Like with Padme, Vader released Blake, who gagged and coughs aloud, trying to breathe again. Vader, now ignoring her entirely in favor of his former Master Obi-Wan.
"Our long-awaited meeting has come at last," Vader says as he walks up to the Jedi Master. "The cycle is now complete. When I left you, I was but a learner. Now I am the Master."
Blake heard this and wondered was this Dark person she now fears as much if not more than Adam, Kanobis former student.
She watched as both of them stared at each other.
"Only a master of evil Darth." Obi-Wan answers.
Vader roared with a saber strike that the two engaged in a lightsaber duel. Blake had witnessed many fights in her life, but the first lightsaber duel she sees as she observers were something else. The two battle with ferocity and skill. Ben's technic was nothing the Faunas had ever seen. It looked more like a dance as his blue lightsaber whorled around in some alternate defense. It works well against blocking the dark warrior's strikes, even throwing in some of his own. Still, Vader blocks retaliated attacks that sent his way parts of the walls decorated with lightsaber marks. The battle had got to be one of the most intense duels Blake has ever seen. But Vader was with his heavy strikes, began to push Obi-Wan back and even got into a blade lock with him.
"Your powers are, weak old man." Vader taunts while a lightsaber lock as he tries to strike his Master down, but Kanobi deflects it aside before putting a few feet distance between them.
"You can not win, Darth. Even if you strike me down, I'll be more possible than you could possibly imagine," Obi-wan replies to Sith, ready to block his next attacks.
Vader had both hands on his lightsaber. "Let me show you the true power of the Dark side," Vader says.
Vader sends objects hurling at the old Master. Metal crates that Ben cut apart. Unknown of one container's contents, one explosive that he cuts through surrounding Kanobi with smoke and fire. Vader pressed his attack, Blake even with a damaged weapon, was about to come to the old Jedi aid. See's him blocking Vader strikes and returns them. The Jedi Master sent a force push at Blake, sending her down the corridor and through an open blast door. The door controls activated and sealed Blake out of Vaders current reach. Leaving him alone with the Sith as both foes looked at each other.
"You may have saved her now," Vader says as he glares at Obi-Wan with yellowed eyes filled with hate hid behind the dark glass of his helmet. "But Blake will be captured eventually. You only stalled her fate." Vader says as he strikes Obi-Wan, who stays silent as he blocks and their duel continues. The battle between former student and Master. A war that will be finished here; this was for keeps.
Blake banged her fist on the locked door. "Damn it!" Blake says while giving the door one last hit. The teen let go a sigh, hoping that the old Master can defeat that guy. So with that, she goes her own way again, wishing all the luck she had for the old man. Wile feeling a big amount of fear for the Dark Lord more then anything or anyone shes met.
For the others, they walked down random corridors trying to guess their way back to the Falcon. They had escaped the garbage shoot a few minutes ago but then ran into a group of stormtroopers.
"It's them! Blast them!" One trooper orders, but before they could shoot, Han had his blaster already aimed at them and blasts the first one in the group. For some reason, even though they had outnumbered their group, they ran with Solo chasing after them. Chewie following his friend down the corridor, stepping over the fallen trooper on the floor.
"Get back to the ship!" Solo yells to Luke and Leia.
"Where are you going? Come back!" Luke yelled at the mad smuggler. Han had already rounded a corner and does not hear.
"He certainly has courage," Leia says, slightly annoyed at the situation.
"What good will it do us if he gets himself killed? Come on!" He says. Luke is furious but doesn't have time to think about it, for muted alarms begin to go off down on the hangar deck.
Han chases the stormtroopers down a long sub hallway while yelling like a madman. But then he had wide eyes when he saw the next area had even more stormtroopers. Solo shot one and runs away, knowing that if he tried to fight that many and stayed, he be a burnt body full of holes.
With Blake, she arrived in another area on the Death Star. A thought brought to her mind how anyone could navigate this place as there were no descriptions on the walls. But that question was mainly to distract her from the fear she felt from encountering Vader. She really can't get over that monster. Blake didn't want to know what it took to make something like him. She also thought of the others, wondering if they're safe. "Ok, come on, Blake. You need to stay focus and get back to the ship. Preferably before the others get there... it's not your pals will just run by and say-"
"Blake!"
Blake turns and sees Solo called her and was running along with Chewie.
"Han! Chewie! I'm so glad I found you! There's-" The Smuggler ran past her but talked still.
"Good to see you too, Blake! Glad your alive but RUN!" Solo yells as he and Chewie him before moving past her but growled happily at seeing her.
Blake looks back at where the two came from and sees Stormtroopers rounding the corner.
A lot of Stormtroopers.
"Oh, great..." With that, Blake ran to catch up with Chewie and Solo.
As for one Stormtrooper, he was making contact with one of the people who can control the doors. "Close the blast doors!" The Stormtrooper says as the three went through the other side, and Blake gave a smirk.
"Bad move," Blake says as she runs again, following closely behind Chewie and Solo still.
As for the Troopers, the door closed so they cant follow them. "Open the blast doors! Open them!"
Blake was happy to be with her friends again then running around randomly. "Glad to see you two...but where's Luke and the princess?" she asked, worried for Luke.
"They're fine. Should be at the ship soon, which we better get going as well." Solo says before the three move to the hanger. Silently, Solo was hoping that that old man got the tractor beam down.
Note: Well heres the Next Chapter and Blake got to face a Sith lord Vader and survived...Because of Obi Wan or by this Ben now she has to escape the death star like the rest.
