Hey all. Sorry it has been so long since an update. I felt it was looooong overdue. I have spent the past time doing a bit of research, rewriting this chapter about 5 times to try and make sure it makes sense. Let me know how I did. I am trying to reply to all your reviews.
ILikeHotDogs: Yes, death. Am more soon to follow
buzzsaw935 : all will be revealed eventually
TheFishKing: There are future plans for him to make an appearance, at a pivotal moment
Guest/s: Raven will be involved eventually. Yes I am continuing, as shown here :P . And I just updated :P.
SANCHO: They won't just sit back, I can tell you that.
Rwby: I am not following cannon force abilities. There are previous Darth Lords who has powers way beyond what Roy was showing there. A couple examples, draining an entire planet of it's life force and 'moving as fast as lightning'.
Jack905: Thanks, it nice to know you are enjoying it.
The god of wolves: If I told you the explanation now, it would ruin the chapter, so look forward to that.
Now, on with the story…
Unkown location:
All that he could see was black. He couldn't really tell if you were actually seeing anything, it was just a vast blackness. He held his hand out in front of him, and still not be able to see it. It felt like the dark void was swallowing him whole. He could feel his body falling, but felt like he wasn't moving at all. He felt like his ears were drumming with noise, but couldn't hear anything. He could feel pressure pushing down all around his body, but felt nothing at all, and there was nothing he felt he could do.
Beacon Academy, Glynda's Combat class:
Blood was pooling all over the floor. The mouths of all hung agape, none daring to move against the killer. Ruby's vision started to spin before she fainted, collapsing on the ground from the sight. Pyrrha had her hand over her mouth, eyes wide. Ren had a more serious look on his face, and Nora's ever present smile, was no longer present.
"Sh-Sh-Sh-She's dead?" Nora whispered out, old memories starting to come back to her from her childhood, a single tear falling down her face.
On the floor of the arena, was Glynda Goodwitch, with a bullet hole straight through the middle of her head, a pool of blood forming below her. The smoke from the gun that killed her still smoking. Seconds passed before her body began to dissipate in a golden glow. Ozpin arrived just to see her face dissipate.
Ozpin was known for having a level head. He was probably the most level headed person on Remnant, but even he couldn't stop his temper this time.
"Beroya Tal'Galar, what have you done?" Ozpin asked, poison and hatred dripping from his voice. All the students recoiled without even thinking of it, all of them moving far away from the headmaster.
'He he he he he, oh that names gets old quite fast. Only really suitable for someone of a young age. Take a look, what do you think I did. She posed a threat, I dealt with it. The last time someone was that much of a threat to me, I killed them in their sleep. Such trickery and games are no longer needed with the power at my fingertips. Now, witness the true power of the darkside!" Roy yelled the last part as he raised both his hands, fingers pointing forward, and large arcs of electricity flying from them, heading straight for Ozpin.
Ozpin reacted immediately, slamming his cane into the ground, creating a green orb around him, protecting him from the deadly attack. Roy didn't let up as he took a step forward. Then another. He only stopped once he sensed a presence behind him. Pyrrha had taken action, grabbing Roy's weapons he dropped when he attacked Ozpin, now pointing both revolvers at Roy.
"The irony of killing someone with their own weapon is nice, but not something I would have expected from one as pure hearted as you. No matter." Roy then waved he hand at Pyrrha, and the two weapons came apart into pieces in her hands, all falling to the floor, completely disassembled. "It was a crude weapon anyway. I have no idea why it was made. There are only two weapons suitable for a sith lord. The mind, and the lightsaber."
Roy reached into his armour and pulled out the darksaber, igniting the black blade, smiling at the power it held. Ozpin lunged forward, going for a diagonal strike to Roy's shoulder. Roy reacted by blocking the attack with his saber, the blade easily slicing through the headmaster's cane. He followed up with a counter-attack, aiming to slice into Ozpin's stomach. At the last second, a snap hiss was heard, and the crackle of two lightsabers sounded throughout the entire auditorium.
"I KNEW IT!" Roy exclaimed, looking over the green lightsaber Ozpin now wielded. As it turned out, the handle of the cane actually housed the ancient weapon.
"I have not been forced to use this blade since the attack on the temple thousands of years ago. You will pay for causing me to break my oath for a child." Ozpin replied, his voice deep, and serious.
"So you did do it. I knew it, How you were able to do it whilst maintaining your hold on the light is beyond me, I never thought it possible. All the same, I must make an exit. We will continue our little charade at a later date, count on it."
Roy then reach above his head, crumbling the supports for the building's roof, causing it to fall. Ozpin jumped back, disregarding the dual in an effort to save the students from injury, raising his hands, and halting the falling debris. Roy used this distraction to leave the class, and make an exit down the hall.
Unknown location:
Parts of a lightsaber could be seen floating around the room. An obvious sign someone was meditating. A deep rumble could be heard in the distance, and sign of a storm approaching. A single person sat in the middle of the circular room. The walls on all sides were completely made of class, but one could barely see the terrain due to the dark night. The only light that could be seen was from the soft glow of several candles, each at different locations throughout the small room. Each part began to come together slowly, forming a single hilt. The person's white hand reached forward to the floating weapon, grasping it, and pointing it upwards, igniting the crimson blade, showing the face of Salem, a massive grin on her face.
"So, he decided to join the fun after all." She grinned.
In the Force Library with Yoda and Qui-Gon:
"Master Yoda, what do we do now? Beroya has lost control to his dark side, going on a rampage. We have to do something. We are partially responsible for what has happened." Qui-Gon pestered the old master.
The green goblin just sighed, "Assistance, we need. The only ones here, we are not."
"Those two won't help us, not after what we just did." The two sith were now trapped inside a holocron each. The two pyramid shaped crystals still sitting on the ground from when Yoda had sealed them in.
"The only two sith here, they are not. Sealed before, the strength, I did not have. More, there are. Not just sith, but those of the light too hmm. They left, to a different place in the library, long ago. Away, from the sith, they went. Content to be alone, they are. Their help, along with the siths' we will need. Unite them, only one person can. Deep in the library he is, alone for millennia. Seek him, we must."
An abandoned warehouse, somewhere near Vale docks:
Roy had ditched his armor for a set of simply robes, and a long black cape, with a hood that covered his entire face, making it impossible to see under the hood. He never really like that armour in the first place. To hard to move in. No defense was necessary if your offense was perfect. He was sitting down on the ground, trying to meditate, going deep into the force, pulling on the darkside like a blanket.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?" A voice yelled out.
"What was planned from the beginning. You were merely a pawn I played until the time was right." Roy replied.
"What!? I served you faithfully. I completed all orders you gave me without hesitation. I could rival the Jedi in combat and in the force. And this is what my faithful service has gotten me? Betrayal?!"
"We are sith! I made you exactly for this purpose! I can't believe you though I was dead. After the power you witnessed, and you thought I could be killed so easily. You fool. You are not fit to be called a Sith Lord. Begone, and only come back once you are ready to once again be called my apprentice." Roy then pushed the other consciousness away from him, damning it into the void. Only one last thing could be heard before it's voice was gone.
"You will pay for this. I will make sure your death is slow and painful. I will not rest until vengeance has been served. Darth Sidious!"
Duh duh duuuuh!
Anyone see this coming through the chapter. I tried to make the conversation coming from Roy/Sidious sound as much like Sidious as possible.
For those of you who don't understand what has happened, a brief explanation. Like I said earlier, I am going according to legendary information and abilities. Darth Sidious did, in fact, have the ability of 'essence transfer'. This, simply put, allowed him to take control of Roy's body, forcing his consciousness out, and putting sidious' in. A good example of this is when Emperor Valkorion uses this ability against the MC in SWTOR (also a good example about how OP some sith really are.) the only difference is that the MC was so strong willed, the emperor's consciousness took a backseat. In this story, however, Emperor Palpatine was just too powerful.
How will Remnant fare when three sith all want to be the Master, and wage war against each other to accomplish this. Will the planet survive? The moon barely survived the conflict between Salem and Ozpin (a tale that will be told later) so how will the planet deal with three powerful sith? Will Ozpin be able to keep the light on Remnant, or will he need to call in help from a galaxy far far away?
Also, I am in need of a Beta Reader, so if you are interested, shoot me a msg.
Till next time,
May the force be with you all.
