Hey! Last night, I finally mapped out the whole "kitten caboodle" and I know exactly how many chapters I'm going to have and what they are going to be about. I can safely say 16 chapters are to be expected. So, I do not own any of the characters, or the game, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, that this is based on. Read, Review, and Enjoy!

I woke up a few hours later. That was the first time I had slept on purpose in a few weeks. I slowly sat up and got out of the bunk without hitting my head on the ceiling. Wow, I already have a very good feeling about today. I dressed and walked out of the room. As I was approaching the main hold, I noticed the others were having a conversation. I was about to walk in and join them when I heard Jolee say my name.

"Oak is not herself lately. Running away from the ship? Not telling anybody? I think she wants Malak to win this. I know she says she doesn't, but she is Revan, and we have to remember that lying is what Revan does best." His voice was cold and emotionless. Does anyone actually believe this stupid web he is trying to spin?

"Well, she has been secretive." Mission started talking against me. Mission, the only person who was still on this ship that I felt like I had a true friend in didn't believe in me. "But are we sure she is slipping? Just because Bastila isn't-"

"Mission, she is a Sith now. On Taris, those people that took me, she is just as bad as them now." Zaalbar interrupted Mission and spoke against me. But, he's Zaalbar! What about the life debt! I don't want a wookie mad at me! My heart started racing. Is Carth in there? He knows what's wrong. Please speak for my case Carth!

"Exactly. We can't trust her anymore. And Carth, she killed your wife." Jolee was trying to turn them all against me now.

"I-I," Carth stuttered. Come on Carth. I'm not Revan, you know that! "She-well,"

"And there you have it. Carth sees it as he should." Jolee stopped Carth from talking anymore.

"Well, our 'macho pilot' did have a bit of a crush on the Jedi. No wonder he didn't know what to say at that." Canderous laughed. "I think Oak would be better off as Revan anyway. It would be good to see a woman in charge for once."

"Sure, says the Mandalorian. But do we all feel this way?" Jolee addressed everyone and I could hear them talking between themselves.

"Stop, everyone, there is something I have to tell you." Carth started talking before Jolee could get another word in. "2 days ago when Oak escaped from the ship, she came by the cockpit to get my jacket. But when she did, she told me a theory she had."

"Are you saying that she told you she was leaving? Jolee, this means she did tell someone she was leaving and she's not an inconsiderate Sith!" Mission sounded elated and I smiled. That's the spirit.

"But wait, I need to tell you the theory." Carth started talking again. No, he's going to tell them about Jolee! I jumped up and landed back on the metal floor with a Thunk! I entered the main hold and stared at them all.

"Good morning guys! I thought I would tell you all what has been going on. Today, something really important is going to happen." I smiled as I sat in a chair next to Mission. She smiled and waved at me.

"Well Oak, do tell." Jolee sounded angry as he sat in a chair also.

"As I told you before I was grounded by a certain bald man," I shot Jolee a quick glance as Mission giggled. "There are other creatures on the planet. They have introduced themselves to me as the Elders. I agreed to help them out with a number of tasks in exchange for something very vital to us stopping Malak. Carth, if you would, please refresh our memory on the Star Forge's shield." He stood and looked at us all.

"Well, the Star Forge has shields." He stopped talking and sat back down.

"Shields that do what, Carth?" I smiled at him again as he stood.

"They basically cause all ships that get in their field to crash, and most crash on this planet. When we first landed here, many of you know that I disappeared for a time, and while I was gone, I found many of the other ships that crashed on this planet. I examined them and got the parts that the Hawk needed. Now all we need to do is shut down the shields so we can leave. We could leave now, but the shields would have us back here in a matter of minutes." He sat again.

"Yeah, so, the Elders have this temple. When I used to be Revan," I put special emphasis on the word "used". "I had come to this planet and told the Elders I would shut down the Star Forge. Well, we all know how that turned out. Anyway, they have the controls for the Star Forge's shields in their temple, so I did a few tasks for them, and they have agreed to let me in."

"That is wonderful." Juhani smiled at me. She knows I'm still pure in the light, she can feel it.

"Yeah, but there's a catch. I can only go in alone." Carth, Juhani, and Mission's jaws dropped, Zaalbar looked confused, Canderous laughed, Jolee just sat there and our droids didn't seem to hear me.

"Alone? You can't have agreed to that?" Juhani stood up. I nodded. "Oak! We don't know what you might find in that temple. It could be crawling with Dark Jedi, or Malak himself might be in there. You cannot go alone!"

"Juhani, I know the dangers that are most likely in that temple. If Revan and Malak went in there, I am positive there will be Dark Jedi. But the Elders will not let anyone else in. I'm sorry, but this will help stop Malak."

"How is getting yourself killed going to help?" I looked at Carth. When Juhani and I argued, he normally kept out of the conversation.

"I'm sorry, but I have to go." I ran from the room and down the ramp. I was halfway to the temple before anyone even got out of the ship.

When I walked up to the temple exterior, I saw 5 of the Elders kneeling on the ground. They didn't seem to notice me as I walked towards them. When I was standing behind them, Leiter came towards me. "The door is nearly open. We will only be able to hold it for a few minutes, and you will only be able to leave by opening the door again from the roof. Or you could jump. It doesn't really matter. Are you ready?"

"Yeah, but I don't have much of a choice, do I?" I smiled at him.

"No, I suppose not." He laughed too.

"Oak!" Juhani and Jolee were running towards me. "You cannot go alone!"

"What? What is this?" Leiter looked at them and then at me. "They can't come! Nein!"

"Guys, I told you, the Elders will only let me in, as in, no friends allowed."

"That's too bad. You will get killed and then what are our chances of stopping Malak without? You need to live, it is the only way. And I think that will only happen if you are not alone. So I am sorry, Mr. Hammer-Head, but my male human friend and I will be accompanying Oak into that temple."

"Who is Oak?" Leiter looked at me.

"That's me, Sir."

"Well, in that case," Leiter paused. "Nein! We do not trust you with friends in our temple! You know what happened last time!"

"Please Leiter! I-" I was cut off by a loud crashing sound as a silver sphere floated above the 5 Elders whom were kneeling on the ground. From that, some sort of ice shot into the door of the temple, crashing it open. Juhani and Jolee took off running towards it. "I'm sorry Leiter, we won't let you down this time. I know it's wrong of me to do this without permission, but, I have to. I'm really sorry." I ran after the two of them, who now were standing in front of the door waiting for me.

"Ready?" Juhani asked me and I nodded. Taking a step forward, the 3 of us entered the temple.

Once inside, the massive doors closed behind us. We were stuck, just like Leiter had said.
