Chapter 4. Into the Deep

A month had passed since Atlas became Darth Syren's apprentice. His training progressing quickly. It was on the second day of the month that Gyllan received a message from his Gala-COM contact. So Syren and Gyllan pack then they take his ship to Gala-com's corporate office. "Remember what I taught you…and keep your power and training hidden. One false move and they will kill me…"

Gyllan leans over and fondles her thigh, "They will have to get through me first…"

She shoves his hand away, "I am serious!" His mood changes and he gets up. Syren sighs love for a Sith is difficult and most likely they will try to kill each other and not for lordship of the Sith. She follows him to the main cabin, "I'm sorry!"

He smiles, "No you're not!"

She sighs, "I am…If the Brotherhood finds out who I am they will kill me and all Darth Bane sought to accomplish will be lost…"

He looks at her and shakes his head, "I love you…"

"I know and I love you…but first and foremost I am your Master…"

"Yes and one day I must kill you to take the Sith Throne…So tell me wise Master what does the rule of two say about love…"

"I don't want to argue…"

"Neither do I…"

"So do you accept my apology?"

"If you were truly sorry you would be naked by now…" Syren's clothes are ripped off by the force and she walks across the cabin and starts to fondle his body. As they travel Syren places up Sith spells of concealment. The spells are so complicated not even the most powerful Jedi or Sith could see through them.

"We have arrived!" Gyllan declares as the ship exits hyperspace. They meet with the contact and load the Free Star onto the ship. As they travel Syren inspects the last shipment for the brotherhood. Weapons and medpacs for common soldiers. Personal shield generators and stimulants. There are also spare parts for battle droids.

Syren smiles as Darth Atlas tries to sneak up on her, "Nice try…"

"Dam I thought I had you this time…" He kisses her neck, "Look when we reach Prakith let me do all the talking…"

"A hard thing to ask of a Hapan woman who is also your Sith Master…" She turns to face him, "We both have our parts to play…You can learn from them, but remember why we are here…They are the enemy…"

Prakith

After six hyperspace jumps the cargo ship finally reaches Prakith. Usually Gyllan delivers the ship to a warehouse near the city, but today he is ordered to fly to the palace hangar. "What is all this?" Gyllan asks staring out the view port. Dozens of Sith Lords and Masters stand at attention in the hangar to greet the cargo ship as it lands.

Syrah the name Darth Syren assumes walks hand in hand with Gyllan down the ramp. They bow to a tall human male, "Lord Cyroh may I introduce my wife Syrah Cage…"

"My lord!"

"Impressive and a Hapan female…" He steps to the side as man with cape and crown on his head step forward, "May I introduce you to Supreme Sith Lord Trystan Volt."

They bow to him, "Welcome to Prakith Gyllan and Syrah Cage…We have been looking forward to your arrival for some time…I sense the force is strong in the both of you…"

"Thank you…" Syrah says.

"Yes we both look forward to our training…"

Trystan and his wife escort the two new recruits to the Sith academy which sits atop a mountain. When they arrive they are introduced to the other Masters of the Academy. Then Trystan pulls Cyroh on the side, "If she hinders his progress kill her."

Cyroh looks at Trystan, "It may not come to that perhaps separation and a memory wipe…I will watch them…"

"Good keep me updated on their progress…"

Syrah and Gyllan are given a room to share and their apprentice robes.
