Hey! Merry Christmas Eve! I'm working on a Christmas special for KOTOR, so, well, yeah. Anywho, I do not own any of the characters or the game, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, that this is based on. I sort of own Kalter Platz, but only because I made it up! Read, review, and enjoy!

Now that I was actually looking at the Elder Compound, I noticed how simple it was. Simple, but at the same time, extremely well built. I circled the structure, examining it. The first thing I would do for the Elders would be to remove their Mandalorian infestation.

While hunting for them around the outside of the Compound, I found a few more paths, other than the one that lead back to my ship. I took one and found myself twisting and curving throughout the snow drifts. As I was wondering through the snow, I found the temple that the Elders were talking about. I could now tell that this was what I had seen on the horizon, and I felt completely triumphant. I was right, they were wrong! I started inwardly dancing, but kept walking towards it.

Around the outside of the temple, I found 50 young rancers. I smiled as I whipped out my light saber, and the familiar hum flicked on. It was a relativity easy fight. The rancers were well spread out and in groups of three, so they were taken out quickly. I continued to explore in the snow.

In the back corner of the area, where the back of the temple wall and some rocks met, there was a tall pillar. I stepped towards it, and when I was standing in front of it, I looked up. It was at least 5 times my height. Words were written across the pillar, and the top was crumbling. My hand skimmed across the words close to the bottom that I could reach. They were in the Elder language, but before I could begin to depict it, a deep voice spoke behind me.

"Hello. I see you have stumbled upon our camp, young Jedi. And now, you have disrupted us. Prepare to have your head added to my trophy room!" I turned to see a tall Mandalorian wearing yellow armor. He was different than the others, who wore blue, and I assumed he was the captian.

"Wait! Can't we talk about this?" I held my hands out in front of me as I tried to take a step backwards. The hard stone of the pillar pushed against my back.

"No. You have disturbed us! Now you must die!" He pulled out a blaster as his 9 comrades held up their blasters and grenades.

So this is how it ends. Attacked by 10 angry Mandalorians. I can't do this on my own! Somebody, please, help. My thoughts were negative as I pulled out my light saber. The cyan blade didn't worry the Mandalorians as one threw a grenade at me. The blinding light concealed me as I changed into my stealth belt and became invisible. I crept away, and when the light subsided, the Mandalorians stared at each other, obviously confused.

Without being noticed, I threw my light saber at one of the blue Mandalorians that were backing up the Mandalorian in yellow. He fell to the ground as my light saber returned to me. The other Mandalorians started arguing.

"What did you do Henry? That was not the Jedi!" The captain started yelling at the Mandalorian who was closest to the corpse. I choked back a laugh

That continued as I threw my light saber at each of the blue Mandalorians, until only the one in yellow was left. I walked back over to him and turned off my stealth field.

"Hi. What was that you were saying before about destroying me?" I smiled as I held the light saber in front of me. He let out a low growl and put away his blaster and pulled out a vibroblade.

The two of us spared for a few moments as I tried to hold him off. I switched to a new tactic as I threw myself into the air above him and hit him in the middle of the head with my light saber. He let out a moan and fell to the ground. I continued battle stance as I stood for a moment, catching my breath.

I ran back towards the Elder Compound and thought back on my metal list. All I need to do now was some gardening and Leiter would let me in the temple. I smiled as I thought this. I loved the thought of gardening because it seemed like it would be so easy. Well, I was wrong.

I know the thought of gardening may sound stupid, but wait till you guys find out what happens when Oak goes and tries to plant a few bushes and flowers outside the Elder Compound. I'm getting a good laugh out of writing it…
