Chapter 12

There was no warning for the Jedi master's when Fenrir struck. They barely had time to realize that the man before them managed to close the distance between them in a blink of an eye, and before they knew it Obi-wan had to raise his weapon in time to stop a blow that would have severed his head from his body. Sadly since Fenrir wore a mask no one could see the smirk on his face, at the same instant Obi-wan blocked the weapon Fenrir's second hand was already on the move. Obi-wan noticed at the last second, jumping back but still receiving the burning sensation in his gut when his opponent's blade grazed his skin. Obi-wan didn't have the time to analyze his new wound as he found himself on the defensive, doing his best to parry away the weapons that belonged to his old friend.

'He is aiming to kill me!' Kenobi realized in shock. Obi-wan never thought he would see the day when his longtime friend and rival actually try to kill him. Obi-wan could tell that the blow he trades with this man is no longer the man he called friend, instead he faced a cold darkness, and for the first time in years. Obi-wan Kenobi felt unadulterated fear.

Obi-wan was forced from his thoughts as his opponent managed to disarm him, shocking the Jedi master. Obi-wan thought he was going to die when he looked into the mask, feeling dread wash over him as he watch the silver blade come to deliver his death. But before the blade descended his opponent turned around in time to block Zack's violet light saber.

Fenrir was forced to turn around and block his brother's strike with his left light saber, but before Zack could do anything our secret sith lord used his right hand to send a wave of Lightning towards his old friend.

"Obi-wan!" Zack Called out watching his friend get thrown back a few yards while being electrocuted. Returning his eyes to the assailant Zack jumped back only to reengage the Acolyte who managed to take Obi-wan out of the fight.

Shaak-Ti was still shocked on how quick Clo-Fenrir moved, and in a few seconds bested Obi-wan. She was about to go and help Obi-wan when Kai-Adi-Mundi called out to her reminding her that the droid commander was still a threat. Reminded about the original target Shaak Ti made her way to Kai-Adi-Mundi as the former Kaleesh warlord stood at a ready his two right arms, each spinning light sabers around like a saw blade.

"Prepare to die!" Shouted the reinvigorated general fueled by the anger and hate towards the Jedi, for cutting of his left arms. It wasn't long until the two Jedi masters found themselves struggling against Grievous's attack. The fight from their previous encounter leaving both Jedi fatigued.

Republic forces, just outside the droid factories radar.

The remaining Republic forces are holding position waiting for the order to attack the Droid factory. Anakin and Aayla are looking over their troops a force of over 2,000 clones and 60 AT-ATs. Anakin and Aayla heard their com link.

"Commander Skywalker, Commander Secura, Our bombers are ready and await your command. The separatist forces won't know what hit them." The Admiral informed the two Jedi.

"That's great to know Admiral what's the status from up their?" Anakin said.

An explosion could be heard from the back ground, "The remaining separatist fleet is putting up a hard fight, so while our bombers are ready to provide support we can only afford to do one strike within the next hour. We will need to use our bombers to take out the enemy fleet."

"Understood admiral, as soon as we are ready we will send word." With that said the com link went silent, as a pair of recon clones jogged up to them.

"Sir," They saluted. "The droid factory is heavily fortified. There are over 500 droids patrolling outside the factory and many turrets and snipers hidden on the edges of the building. Their fortifications are weaker from the east; they probably didn't expect much resistance from the direction of their Anti Air turrets."

"Well I guess we made the right choice to invade from the east. Good work soldier" Anakin said before turning to his troops. "Alright men move forward, time to end this battle." Within the minute the republic forces marched their way to the droid factory. It didn't take long for the factory to appear in their sights, Aayla quickly activated her com link.

"Admiral, we are sending in the coordinates for the bombing run."

"Coordinates received," It didn't take long only a few minutes until the Y-wing bombers came in and dropped their pay loads on the droid factory, from what Aayla can see from the binoculars, some pieces of the roof caved in and the east wall seemed to be devastated. She also noticed how the five hundred droids quickly turned into a larger mass all heading their way towards her direction. She watched as more droids seem to pour out of the building. Anakin gave the order to move forward, the clones using the terrain as cover as the first wave of droids and clones moved closer. Anakin lead at the front leading 1,500 clones to battle the remaining 500 stayed behind with the At-ATs standing by for back up. Aayla turned her head to the skies watching the Y wings come back around to drop the last of the bombs, when her eyes widened in horror as one by one the Y-wings were going down, immediately her com link came to life as the leader of the Y-wing squad contacted her.

"Forgive us Commander but we have to pull back. The separatist are somehow shooting down my squad. I'm sorry but the rest of this fight is up to you. We have to return to the fire fight in space." Aayla gave her understanding as she watched the remaining Y-wings fallback missing three of the eight that came. Aayla wondered what could have shot down those bombers when the turrets on the factory were taken out on the first bombing run.

Aayla nearly smacked herself as she realized what happened, 'it must have been that bounty hunter. But to shoot out Y-wings from the sky, how skilled is this person?'

Droid factory.

Vincent ignored the Neimoidian panicing about the bombing and instead gave Yuffie a look which she understood. Already fully armored Yuffie drew her favorite weapon, the one she used to shoot drop ships out of the sky and waited for the Y-wings to come back for the second run. She smiled at how perfectly straight they were, knowing that she can easily take the shot that has ended many republic lives today. She shot the first Y-wing with ease moving along to the next one while the Y-wings were too shocked to move. She watched how the y-wings tried to take evasive action after the second victim. But before they could retreat She manage to get the third and last pilot victim of the day, this time watching how the co pilot of the Y-wing tried to brace for impact, hoping that the bomber doesn't explode on impact. His hope was in vain as the bomber exploded like the two before it.

Yuffie smirked as she walked back into the room with Vincent as the older Gaian gave her a nod of approval. The Neimoidian still panicking but was able to keep still now that the main threat was over.

Vincent was already fully armored but held his helmet with one arm. "I think I should join the front lines. There's some unfinished business to take care of. Neimoidian, send out the tanks on my command." Vincent ordered as he placed his helmet and made his way out of the building. Yuffie watched as she decided to head out as well, looking for a nice place to pick off the enemy. She really hoped to see more tanks or drop ships; those were more fun to take out other than normal troops.

Republic wreckage

Zack was feeling frustrated, not only was this man mocking his brother by using said siblings light saber, but the man also used Jar'Kai with ease and in a similar patter as his brother. Zack frowned the entire fight, because no matter how much he focused on his opponent he was receiving flash backs to when his brother sparred with him. Zack made a choice; he will defeat this man and recover those light sabers so he can bury them in his brother's grave.

Zack quickly rolled to his left avoiding a dangerously close strike that would have cut at his leg. There was a short pause to this duel as both combatants look towards their allies facing off not so far away. Grievous was managing to put the other two on the run, even with losing his left arms. It seems that the together two seem to be feeling the fatigue of the battle. Zack quickly checked up on Obi- wan who was just starting to get back up. He also noticed how K'kruhk hasn't moved an inch. For a moment Zack thought Grievous killed him before they arrived until he felt a smallest signs of the force working on him. Zack realized this battle must end now or they won't have time to give K'kruhk proper medication. Zack sent a glare towards the masked man, a look of determination in his eyes.

Fenrir gave a small laugh at the look in his brother's eyes. "Well shall we continue our performance?" Zack immediately reengaged the acolyte; renewed strength came as he planned to overpower his opponent with his master's form, Vapaad. But he didn't expect for this acolyte to keep up. This Fenrir not only matched him blow from blow, but kept up with his speed. Even in the Jedi temple there are not that many master's who can match Zack's raw strength and speed. Even his master can't out last him, although most of the time Mace Windu managed to defeat him, but after word Zack would get back up and challenge the founder of Vapaad, again and again until both current masters can't keep going.

Zack swung violently but elegantly as he attacked his opponent in the form he mastered. It still wasn't enough. Zack locked his violet light saber against the crimson silver sabers of his opponent. The two locked eyes, or at least where the eyes would be behind the mask. "Is that the best you got?" Fenrir mocked, using the force Zack managed to push Fenrir back and watched as his opponent took a new stance. 'It can't be!' Zack's eyes widened.

Fenrir smirked under his mask as the dark lord in secret took a stance that he has been working on for years. It is still not perfected but it was complete, the fine tuning can be worked out later. Fenrir used the force to speed him up, a technique taught to him by Kreia. As he nearly impaled his brother with the first strike, Zack managed to parry the attack saving his life, and out of pure instinct moved his blade to counter the next strike before he found himself purely focusing on trying to avoid the blades.

Obi wan finally stood up and retrieved his light saber as he looked around, he notice that Shaak Ti and Mundi managed to hold back an angry general grievous but what had him in worry was watching Zack face of his brother. At first he thought he was still seeing fuzzy but then he realized that Fenrir was using Kuro-Shikon, but instead of the sloppy but fast strikes, they were now precision strikes that could end a life with each attack. Obi-wan quickly made his way to his friend ignoring the pain from the previous wound he gained. But by the time he caught up to Zack his eyes widened in shock as Zack was disarmed and shouted away flying into a large piece of debris so hard, Zack not only dented the metal, but was stuck to it.

Fenrir found an opening and he took it, he managed to disarm his brother by fainting a strike to the ribs with his right and while his brother went to block he used his left to swing upward aiming to cut off both his brother's arms. But Zack avoided the attack by jumping back letting his weapon take the hit, and since he held the blade in a weak grip. The light saber flew out of his hand, leaving him open to be cut down.

Fenrir saw the chance to kill his opponent, but he hesitated. No one could have noticed for it only lasted a fraction of a second, but instead of killing his brother he used a force scream to send his brother flying. At the end of the scream he said a curse under his breath as he turned from his brother's direction to face Obi-wan. His old Friend watching in shock as the younger brother finally defeated the older one.

Shaak- Ti and Mundi were holding off better than last time, using team work a lot better than the previous fight where grievous managed to successfully disrupt them and in the panic single handedly trash them around. But not the general's left side was open so he was forced to defend. It was such a huge handicap that in reality they should have been able to defeat the general, but due to the fatigue Shaak-Ti can't take advantage of any openings.

Fight the General and losing conscience during that fight along with the battle at the fort, the Togruta Jedi was sluggish. Kai-Adi-Mundi on the other hand was able to pick up the slack but having to defend her openings by pressing the general was starting to take its toll. Mundi already had minor cuts and bruises that have piled up and slowed the Cerean. Meanwhile having a mostly mechanical body Grievous is not feeling any fatigue, but he is unable to finish these Jedi off due to his strong sense of self preservation. His time as a Warlord made him focus on more than trying to kill the opponent, but also learning how to live and fight another day. As a leader he had to make sure he was able to deliver and couldn't afford major injuries.

Needless to say their battle was a stalemate. That is until they heard a devastatingly loud scream. The combatants all turned to face the sound, and were shocked and impressed. The Jedi couldn't believe that Master Fair had been beaten, while Grievous only gained more respect for his comrade. Both Shaak-ti and Grievous keept on looking until Grievous found that he was missing his other arms. In the shock and awe of the moment Mundi refused to be distracted and took the opportunity to literally disarm the general. Grievous realizing that he had made a vital mistake, quickly backed away and went to make a retreat towards his ally.

Kenobi watched as Fenrir slowly twirled his weapons, still in his Kuro-Shikon form. Obi-wan waited he could feel the cold sweat. He was better than Zack in terms of defense but he just got electrocuted not so long ago. His body was still numb. He nearly sighed in relief when Grievous ran behind Fenrir gaining his former friends attention. It wasn't long until he was flanked by Shaak-Ti and Kai-Adi-Mundi.

"Seriously Grievous, just head back to the droid factory, I'll handle these three." The droid General let out a nasty snarl, but did as he was told as he headed to a speeder, somehow managing to use it with his feet. Being magnetically attacked to it he had no fear of falling off.

Turning his attention on the remaining three Jedi, Fenrir frowned. 'I am a lot better at dueling, multiple opponents is not my specialty.' None the less Fenrir stood up taller almost looking more like a noble than a fighter. Count Dooku taught him that. "Well you must be some horrible dance partners to scare of my buddy grievous." He said in a false friendly tone. The three Jedi masters showed no sign of amusement as they all got ready. Cloud just shrugged as he got back into a Defensive Jar'Kai form. "Shall we dance?"

Droid factory battle field.

Anakin was currently deflecting some blaster fire, "Sir," a trooper called from behind him taking cover on the many boulders closer to their side. Anakin told the troops to stay near the boulders for cover, making the droids cross a large plain with virtually no cover. "Sir we are pinned down from here!" Anakin nodded and notice a group of super battle droids firing and closing in to the clones who called out to him. Using the force to propel him, Anakin leaped across into the center of the group a droids and quickly spun around swing his blade with him. In just a few seconds the small group of super battle droids was nothing but scrap metal.

Anakin quickly went behind cover with the clones, "corporal what do you see." Said trooper poked his head around the rock, before quickly taking cover again.

"Sir the enemy is building up another wave, I can't tell you how many there are but it seems they might be producing droids and immediately getting them ready to defend the factory." Anakin nodded as he pondered, the factory can produce plenty of droids, so trying to overpower a droid factory won't work, they need a infiltration unit. Activating his com link Anakin contacted Aayla.

Aayla, we won't be making any progress like this without air support. So I think you should take a small fire team to infiltrate the droid factory and try to cause the main reactor core to shut down, that should stop the factory from producing the droids. You will need a skilled technician."

"Understood I'll take care of that, I'm leaving Commander Cody in charge in my place." Anakin acknowledged her and ended the com link, Aayla turned towards the small reserve they left and took the ten she thought were best suited.

Meanwhile Vincent was waiting with the second wave noticing how the droids in the first seem to be dropping in numbers, but what caught his attention were the small flashes of blue that seemed to take out the droids even faster than the clones. 'Soon Jedi we will meet on the battle field.' Vincent felt an old feeling that he hadn't had since the great Gaian war. And that was the excitement of fighting a dangerous opponent. Gaian's are a competitive race; even the pacifist of their race can't really pass up a challenge up to their skills whether it be battle or politics. In a way he felt that this Jedi could give him a proper challenge.

Yuffie was too bored it was too easy to pick off the clones from her distance, the technology of her suit and rifle making it child's play for the bounty hunter, she got so bored that she decided that she would flip a coin, so if it landed on tails, she kills a clone, and if it lands on tails, she will shoot a droid. She was sure if she was caught shooting droids, that Grievous and the Neimoidian would be angry, but she knew Vincent could care less, and that Fenrir would defend her…. She hoped. Flipping her coin, it landed on heads. Taking aim and in the next second another clone had died. She sighed. Thinking about Fenrir the girl wondered if the man will ever relax and hopefully hang out with his men. She also wondered if he will ever look at her like a woman. Ever since she joined he was all work and no play. He was too serious, constantly training.

She flipped the coin and it landed on tails. And within a few seconds another droid got turned to scrap. Yuffie had to admit that Fenrir is intimidating, but she also finds him completely irresistible. She can't help but find herself day dreaming about how he must look without any clothes on at all, she would most definitely tap that.

Coin flip tails. Another dead droid. She sighed she didn't really care if he actually loved her or he just used her body out of lust, Yuffie really just wants to be his. His power, his intimidation, his good looks, his cold eyes Yuffie loved it all. Suddenly thinking about cold eyes she thought back to Vincent, another male that she has an interest in all though she doesn't want to get into his pants as bad. The man was a mystery to her; his eyes are so cold they even seem lifeless. He was probably more serious than Fenrir, and in a way just as intimidating.

Another coin flip this time it was heads. One dead clone later Yuffie was thinking again. She doesn't know why she is so attracted to the two, or why she likes her men intimidating, while her sister likes her men soft. That Lenzor Zvent guy is too kind if you ask Yuffie, all though that man sometimes can get serious. Another sigh left her mouth she must be really bored to be thinking about this stuff….. Coin flip.

Grievous's location

Grievous was half way towards the factory, when he decided to call in a drop ship from one of the ships currently fighting above the planet's atmosphere. He needed for them to send in the proper parts, he needs new arms. 'Damn it I can't believe I made a rookie mistake.' Grievous raged inside, as he called in a drop ship to give him some new arms. Grievous then contacted Vincent and told him to arm the present they left in the AA towers. Vincent told him the present will go off as soon as the tower tries to shoot down any ship.

AA gun location.

The clones were bored waiting at the tower wishing they were assigned to the front lines. "Hey frostbite come join us we need another person to be the dealer."

The clone named Frostbite laughed and got up from his chair until he noticed something on his screen what seemed like an enemy drop ship. "Enemy drop ship inbound, get into your stations boys, whoever gets to shoot it down first gets a free round next shore leave.

The boys looked ready as they quickly sat at their stations the game of Sabacc on hold. "Drop ship spotted!" Yelled one of the clones as he pressed the button to fire, "Ha frostbite looks like you owe me a dri-" The Clone was cut off as the AA-tower blew up, along with the other AA towers. Not a single clone knew what happened when they were set ablaze.

Republic wreckage.

Fenrir duck and rolled forward avoiding Mundi's saber, and quickly stood and blocked both of Obi-wan's and Shaak-Ti's attack before Mundi was about to attack, instead Fenrir donkey kicked the general's knee and quickly turned off his light saber's causing Obi-wan and Shaak-Ti to stumble forward from the lack of resistance and soon found a palm on their stomachs where Fenrir shocked them both. They both flew back a bit but as soon as they hit the ground they got back to their feet, ignoring the pain as they got ready to reengage. Fenrir was forced to jump back again as Mundi recovered and tried to impale him.

Gaining some much needed breathing room Fenrir looked at all three of his opponents, they were all bruised sweaty and tired, and while on the outside he still looked like he could go on. But reality is settling in, his sweat covered his body his back hurt from the time Obi-wan force pushed him into debris earlier, and his arms grow tired, using Kuro-Shikon on Zack left the after math on his arms, making the young man tired.

The three Jedi master's were about to reengage but they heard an explosion in the distance. All of the Jedi got distracted from the explosion, that Fenrir was glad to have the short breather. Checking on his brother he noticed that the man was still unconscious and still stuck to the debris. Turning his head back to the confused master's he made a quick decision to retreat. If this continued he might be able to kill one of them, but it will lead to his capture.

The three finally looked back to Fenrir but they were too late. The former Jedi took the deepest breath possible gathering as much force as he can in his lungs and throat, right before releasing the most powerful scream he ever made. Launching the three Jedi backwards, deafening their world. Maybe even shattering their ears. Fenrir took the time to run towards his speeder and make his way back to the factory.

Obi wan was the first to regain his senses although his ears still ring and he saw the dark figure retreat. The other two got up and he couldn't help but chuckle, "We really need to learn how to defend against that."

Both of the other Jedi master's looked at him confused, "What." They both said. Obi-wan grinned and pointed to the other unconscious Jedi. Great they are all deaf, well at least Obi-wan doesn't have to hear his Pad wan complain about some of his lessons now. That is until they fix his ears.

Obi-wan watched Shaak –Ti and Kai-Adi-Mundi recover K'kruhk and Zack before they made their way to the gunship. Obi-wan decided that with Fenrir on the way back his pad wan won't be able to win, so with great grief, the general got ready to order a retreat. 25 minutes later the order was sent

Droid factory

Anakin just managed to destroy the last droid in the first wave before looking on and noticing that the next wave was just as large, and had tanks. The young Jedi gave a tired sigh; he felt the explosion of the AA towers not so far from here. The ground trembled and he immediately knew what happened. He felt so dumb he should have known. He was about to get ready for the second wave until his com Link blinked yellow, the light that meant that they had lost the battle and will be making a full retreat all the way back to republic space. *Not sure if they have something like that but I will put it in so please just roll with it* Anakin looked around and noticed that the troops saw the yellow flashing on their com links. "Men Fall back!" Anakin shouted albeit reluctantly.

Aayla just managed to sneak half way to the main reactor along with her small team, taking down any droids along the way when there com links flashed yellow. Sighing in disbelief she turned around with the rest of her team.

Vincent watched as the Clones seemed to be retreating, "Shall we go hunt them down sir." A Droid asked. Vincent just shook his head as they droid replied with a "Rodger, Rodger." And the other droids and tanks made their way back inside the factory.

Yuffie watched as the Clones made a retreat and out of instinct shot a few of them down, until she realized that it was a full retreat. Standing up from her prone position she got up and made her way to Fenrir's drop ship, deciding to take her armor off, and try something she had been planning for a while. She smirked, 'this might not work but there is no way Lord Fenrir can keep a straight face after words.'

Fenrir's location.

Within 30 minutes Cloud arrived at the factory, he arrived in time to watch the last of the republic forces retreat into the canyon of the east. Fenrir hasn't made it to the building yet but he managed to watch from the edges. Amused by the outcome, Fenrir mounted his speeder and headed back to the factory in a few minutes. He left his speeder just outside one of the entrances and made his way to the war room, to talk with Grievous and the Neimoidian before leaving this planet and delivering a message to his 'Master' Dooku. That was till he came across something interesting shortly entering the entrance and coming across an intersecting hallway. There in front of him stood ten clones and the Jedi from Geonosis who stopped him from killing Shaak-Ti. The clones aimed their guns at him and the Jedi immediately ignited her light saber.

"Well look at what we have here ten republic troops and a Jedi." His enemies were nervous that much was obvious, and he knew he can kill the clones and over power the Jedi before him, but he was tired, and while he won't say it out loud he was glad she stopped him from killing Shaak-Ti. "But I was sure I saw the republic retreat," Fenrir kept walking, taking a right turn leaving the exit clear. "Maybe I'm hallucinating I know I will close my eyes and count to ten. If they are still here I guess I have to kill them."

The clones and Jedi were confused, why this man would let them leave. The clones maybe thought he was some masked noble but Aayla knew he was a powerful Sith.

"One, Two, Three."

Aayla eyes widened he was serious, quickly she told her men to move. "Yes sir!" they said as the small team ran out the exit.

"Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten." Turning around Fenrir saw nothing and he let a small smile shine behind his mask. 'I spare you today Young one because I am grateful, but know this, the next time we meet, I won't just let you leave.' With that Fenrir left to find Mr. No arms.

Hours later aboard the Republic cruiser.

Anakin alongside Aayla walked through one of the many halls in the ship. All of the master's are trying to recover, but Zack had woken up not so long ago and made his report to the council. Anakin and Aayla already made theirs but Aayla left out one part.

"I can't believe it we were so close." Anakin complained

"It couldn't be helped we were out matched and we were spread too thin." Aayla said.

"But still you were close to the reactor we could have made a last minute plan to rig the core to explode taking the factory with her."

"Anakin even if we did that we would still have to clean up the remaining forces and deal with the mercenary and bounty hunter. They alone seemed more than capable to take large bits out of our remaining troops."

"But still we could take them out here and turn them in making getting rid of two skilled agents for the separatist."

"And then you and I had to deal with" Looking around to make sure no one was near. "Cloud strife. From Zack's report he managed to defeat Zack, and judging out Obi-wan, Shaak-Ti, and Kai-Adi-Mundi. I don't think we would have fared better, I remember him giving you that arm." Aayla pointed, causing Anakin's temper to flare.

"Hey that was a month ago I gotten stronger."

"And so has he, plus General grievous was still there. Think logically Anakin, we might have won or ultimately lost. We had to retreat because it was to high risk, and we lost way too many resources."

"Fine I guess you're right." They both turned into the mess hall it was currently empty most clones either working on the ship or sleeping. As a matter of fact the crew for each ship was now the base crew needed to run the ship with maybe one hundred spare troops. So many men died and now that Anakin can see the mess hall empty he realized retreating was for the best. They both received their meal from the droid who regularly serves the food to the people here. Sitting at the table in the middle of the room they started to eat.

"So encounter any trouble coming out of the factory?" Anakin asked, as he got a spoon full of the mashed rations they had. The food wasn't bad or good normally had no taste but it gave the necessary nutrients. Aayla had yet to pick up her spoon and was in deep thought.

"Aayla what happened back there?" Anakin asked concern for his friend.

Looking around and realizing that no one but the server droid was here. Aayla whispered, "On our way out we encountered Cloud." Anakin's eyes widened and was about to say something before Aayla continued. "At first I thought he was going to try and kill us but instead he just kept walking and let us pass. He said something like… The republic already made a full retreat, obviously I'm imagining things. With that he had his back to us and counted to ten he said if he saw republic troops after words he would be forced to kill them.

Anakin was in pure shock his only encounter with cloud had been back on Geonosis and the man was nothing but pure anger at the time. "Do you know why he just let you go."

"None at all, I thought for sure we were going to die. But he just let us go."

"Strange"

"I know." With that said the two ate there meal in silence when their com links went off and they were told to report to the med bay because General Kenobi is awake.

Cloud's personal ship, The Strife.

Cloud went straight to his quarters and took a shower. He could hear that Vincent already gave the piloting droid the coordinates to Xion. Cloud was tired, after the shower he looked at himself in the mirror. His hair was flattened down by the water giving his hair a very feminine look. He looked in his eyes and saw them shine blue. He realized he gained some stubble and immediately shaved his face. He looked over his naked form counting the multiple scars he got from training with Dooku. Dooku might not teach him many force tricks but he has to admit it was because of Dooku that his saber skills increased tenfold. Without it he would have died today. Cloud started to dry his hair even more with a towel and looked for his bathrobe, not seeing it he assumed that he must have forgotten to wash It the last time and just walked into his quarters with only a towel drying his head.

"Oh my." Cloud heard a very sultry voice say. Already knowing who it is Cloud stopped drying his hair and used the towel to cover his man hood. Not amused as he glared at the blushing form of Yuffie. The Younger Gaian was spread across his bed wearing nothing but his bathrobe which was obvious to see as the bathrobe as big as it was wasn't covering Yuffie completely. Cloud had an easy view of her cleavage.

"What are you doing inside my quarters?" Cloud didn't care that she saw him naked, all he cared about was why would anyone enter his private quarters. It was the only place where he truly relaxed.

"I figured you might want to relax so I came in order to offer my service." She said as she raised the bath robes of her leg going all the way to her hip. She traced her legs with her hand drawing the man's eyes to her long smooth hairless legs. He was even able to see her butt cheek.

Cloud refused to be tricked; he was a powerful Sith lord. And no one should disrespect his private quarters. He was her master and she dare disrespect his sanctuary.

"Leave now Yuffie you are not welcome and I am very tired of your antics. Leave now before I run out of patience." Yuffie watched the anger in his eyes the cold glare she can feel how the atmosphere of the room bent to his will and all of it was intoxicating, she wanted more. And she is dangerously close to losing her life. Yuffie's entire body told her to run, and for that very reason she was so turned on. She decided to try one more thing.

"My lord," She got up from the bed and while she did so she stood before him in all her naked glory. Cloud visibly twitched as he tried not to be seduced. "My only wish is to pleaser you; I only want to make you feel good." Yuffie said walking around the man and whispering the last part holding on to his back pressing her breast on his back. "You don't even have to ask. You are my master and I am your slave. Your property." Yuffie wrapped her arms around his chest feeling his abs and pecks. She watched closely as the towel he used to hide his man hood had a large bulge.

"I-I Think…" Cloud didn't finish.

Yuffie nibbled on his ear and whispered. "Take me my lord." With that the towel fell and Cloud faced the woman in front of him. His eyes burning with lust, and they flickered yellow before returning to blue. "Prove your worth." He said. Placing a hand behind her head, as she got to her knees. 'Finally I convinced him' Yuffie thought.

"Yes my master".
