Chapter 5
The voice…why won't it just leave me alone why won't it just go away? It had started just after the transport ship she had taken landed on the nearest natural world. It was a voice speaking to her, a sick twisted voice and it took Ahsoka a while to figure out who it was or at least who it sounded like, the Son it was the Son's voice. She rubbed her temples as she exited the shuttle down onto the landing platform. Steady the voice grew in Ahsoka's head making her head hurt worse than it already did.
She started walking to a vender who sold tickets for transport rides, she only hoped the person would understand the predicament she was in and just let her have a ticket as she no longer had any credits. Her legs continued to shake as she made her way closer to the ticket booth and a burning sensation began to form in her chest. Her steps began to take more and more energy away from her and she placed her hand against the wall to help her stay on her feet.
I am your salvation!
She shook her head trying to get the voice to go away she was already in enough pain that the added headache wasn't helping. She began to receive curious stares from people passing by her not offering any aid or even asking if something was wrong.
They don't respect you! They don't know the power you possess!
She stopped and put a hand over her chest as the burning feeling grew more intense.
Kill them! Make them serve you!
Again she shook her head, why was she hearing these things she had no reason to harm these innocent people. Pushing herself off the wall she finally made it over to the booth, she began to feel dizzy so she placed a hand on the booth to keep herself steady. "Corusant" she said looking at the human male inside the booth. "That'll be 100 credits" he replied and titled his head to one side, the girl did not look like she was doing to well. "I don't have any credits but I need to get to Coruasant please" Ahsoka replied.
"I am sorry ma'am but if you don't have the credits I am afraid I can not give you a ticket" he replied. Ahsoka staged slightly "Please…I'm a Jedi…" she said using her other arm to hold her side. She felt like she was burning up, or at least been cut by a saber many times. "Jedi or not if you don't have the credits I can't give you the ticket I am sorry" he replied.
Ahsoka's eyes closed tightly and she doubled over in pain as the heat spread further through her body.
If he wont give you want you want, TAKE IT!
The heat continued to grow hotter until it felt like she was on fire every part of her from head to toe felt very hot. "Ma'am are you alright?" the clerk asked concerned. Ahsoka reached out with the force trying to dull this unexplainable heat she was feeling within herself. When she touched it with the force she realized that there wasn't anything physically wrong with her, it was an emotion she was feeling a very strong emotion. Anger…she could feel it now a inferno of heat and power but Ahsoka wasn't mad so why was she feeling this emotion coming from her? She gripped the booth harder denting it as the pain heat intensified and the voice in her head screamed louder.
TAKE IT!
Her vision blurred and became red again and her legs stopped shaking. The anger turned to hatred and erupted from inside of her, she looked up with a snarl and her sith eyes locked on to the clerk. "Give it to me!" she growled while applying pressure on the man's skull. His hands flew up to his head clutching his skull he cried out in pain as the pressure increased.
Make the whelp suffer!
Again Ahsoka had no control but she found herself once again enjoying the screams of pain and agony. The man tried desperately to give her what she wanted just so the pain would end but he found his back pinned to the wall and the ticket just out of reach. Ahsoka applied more pusher and the screams from the man became louder now drawling the attention of the people passing by. The snarled turned into a sadistic smile as Ahsoka's heard the crack of the man's skull. His head exploded sending blood and pieces of brain everywhere, the people around screamed in fled but Ahsoka didn't move.
The flame recessed but the smile remained as her eyes looked at the horrid sight, her hand took a hold of the ticket as the hatred faded away and her red vision vanished. Her eyes winded as she realized what she had done, she had take an innocent life, killed him over a ticket to Corusant over credits. What was happening to her? Why did she do that? She turned around quickly and saw that she was suddenly alone everyone else had fled.
She was now terrified she was scared of herself, she began to tremble and her breath shook. She took the ticket and began to run toward the shuttle that had just landed that would take her to Corusant. She needed to get to the Jedi to the council to Anakin she knew they could figure out what was going on. She just hoped that she could stop herself from hurting anyone else before she got there.
