I don't own Star Wars or any of the characters.
As soon as Anakin entered the apartment, the Jedi Master was confronted by his daughter and her boyfriend. The Jedi Master stepped back, his back slamming in to the door. Suddenly, Galen, Juno, Ezra, Sabine, Jinn, Katana, Mina and Sky burst through the door, sending Anakin flying face down onto the floor. Leia quickly helped her father back on to his feet while everyone else assaulted the Jedi Master with what they had learned perturbing to the Sith.
"Master Skywalker, we found information on the Sith." began Jinn.
"We met with Hondo…" said Mina.
"I set up the meeting." told Ezra.
"News was floating around the criminal underground." exclaimed Juno.
Anakin had had enough. The former Sith Lord threw up his hands, his Force signature flaring with rage. Everything suddenly went quiet. The only sound anyone heard was Anakin's raspy breathing.
"Everyone, be quiet!" yelled Anakin.
The young Jedi and Republic soldiers felt quiet. It was not often that Anakin raised his voice. But when he did, everyone listen.
Anakin took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. Once he centered himself, Anakin addressed the group again, this time in the calmest, most controlled voice he could must.
"Only one person speaks at a time. Tell me what you must, but only what is important. Do you understand." calmly spoke Anakin.
Slowly, one by one, everyone revealed to Anakin what they had learned about the Sith. Anakin was displeased that so many promising Jedi and soldiers had gone to Coruscant's lower levels to meet with a pirate, but he'd have the Council deal with that later. Once Ezra and his gang had completed giving their explanation, Leia and Han revealed what they had learned to the Jedi Master. Mentally comparing what he had been told by Justin with the information he had just been given, Anakin thought he might know where the Sith were holding the Padawans.
"I might know where the Padawans are being held. Come on. We have to inform the Council." spoke Anakin.
Without any argument, everyone followed the Jedi Master to the Temple to inform the Council of what they had learned about the Sith.
Meanwhile, in the holding cell of the hidden Sith base, Luke was in deep meditation. The young Jedi had been trying to anchor himself in the Light Side of the Force, but it was hard with the implant the Sith had surgically placed at the back of his neck.
"There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no chaos, there is harmony. There is no death, there is the Force." whispered Luke.
Luke repeated the Jedi Code as if it were a mantra. It helped him stay awake and keep watch over Mara and the younglings, who themselves were in a state of restless sleep. Suddenly, a sickeningly sweet smell filled the room. Luke realised too late that the scent was from some sort of knock out gas coming through the vents.
When Luke awoke he found himself strapped to a table with all sort of needles stuck in to his arms. Luke tried to struggle but each movement sent a sheering wave up pain up the young Jedi's spine. The distressed youth tried to center himself in the Force, but the implant kept him from touching the light side and Luke recoiled when he felt the dark side touch his consciousness. He tried to with drawl from the dark presence touching his mind, but it only got stronger. That's when Luke noticed he wasn't alone in the room.
Venger, the Sith Lord that had captured Luke, stood in a corner of the room, her face obscured by shadows. The female Togruta rose from her seat and moved towards Luke. The Togruta smiled from behind her mask, stroking a hand against Luke's cheek.
"So you're finally awake." spoke Venger.
Luke pulled away from the Togruta's touch, casting her a disgusted glare. Venger frowned, reaching for the power of the dark side. Slowly, invisible fingers worked their way around the Jedi's throat. The boy gasped for air, struggling against the restraints to try and pry the invisible fingers from his throat. Venger released her hold on the Jedi's throat, grinning as she watched him gasp for breath.
"That was just a little demonstration on what you will suffer if you don't answer any of my questions. Now tell me how you came to be in this universe?" snarled Venger.
"I...don't know…what you're…talking…about." panted Luke.
Venger grabbed the Jedi's throat, her nails digging into his skin. The Sith was losing her patience.
"Don't play games with me Jedi. I saw you be effected by the Force when it tried to send me back to my universe. So tell me, how did you get here?!" demanded Venger.
Luke remained silent. Venger frowned behind her mask.
"Very well Jedi. It seems we're going to have to do this the hard way." hissed Venger.
Turning to the control panel mounted on her wrist, Venger pressed a button. Several of the tubes in Luke's arms began to fill with a clear, colourless liquid. The liquid slowly dripped in to the thin tube, sliding down until it entered Luke's bloodstream. Luke screamed as the solution mixed with his blood, causing hot flashes of pain throughout his body.
Venger stopped the flow of the liquid, but the Jedi's screams didn't subside in the slightest.
"Tell me what I want to know or the pain will only increase. Each time you refuse to answer me the dosage will increase. This will be your only warning." told Venger.
With the threat looming over the Jedi, Venger began the interrogation.
Sorry about the late update. I'm still having a bit of writer's block. Sorry if it seems like I keep dragging things. I'll try to keep things interesting in future chapters. Comment if you like the story.
