Shadow of the Jedi

Chapter 17: A disturbance a Prophecy and this might just work

In his meditation chamber, peering through the dark side, Master Yoda felt a sudden surge of anger, an outrage beyond control.

The diminutive Masters eyes popped open wide at the overwhelming strength of that rage, and then he heard several voices, some of them familiar some of them unfamiliar.

"You did this! Stop him or he'll kill us all!"

"You know nothing of my true power."

"You hid nothing from me, you are a fool, witch. Your understanding of the Force is nothing compared to mine."

He will kill them all.

Then, he could hear a faint whisper in his mind. It murmured so quietly that he would never remember hearing it, "Prepare yourself…a new player will soon enter the game."

Yoda frowned slightly as he heard the ghostly call, and in his deep meditative state, his thoughts focused as precisely as they had ever been, the Jedi Master new he had not been mistaken.

He wanted to focus on that then, perhaps to try and follow that call back to the ghostly source, but he could not, overwhelmed again by the surge of rage and darkness and…power.

He made a noise and lurched forward, then came out of his trance as his door opened and Mace Windu rushed in, sensing that the Grand Master was troubled.

"What is it?" Mace asked.

"Pain. Darkness. Death. I fear something terrible has happened. Young Di Angelo is within the darkness, terrible darkness." He didn't tell Mace the rest of it, that somehow Nico's rush of anger manifesting through the Force, had tapped into his mind. Too much was happening here.

Line break

Chancellor Palpatine slowly got up off of his office's floor, sputtering in shock and anger. The recent Force Disruption had taken him completely by surprise, bringing him to the floor. Thank the Force no one saw him be affected by some random force, to them at least.

As Palpatine settled back into his chair, his analytical mind began breaking down the event, looking at every possibility, every detail he could perceive. He had never felt a Force Disturbance that powerful before, and that was saying something considering he had witnessed his Master play with life itself to create a vessel of pure Force Energy.

What could it of been? Palpatine, after several minutes of thinking, could not come up with an answer to satisfy as an explanation. Vorn was most definitely not that powerful and neither were the students that he taught in his Temple, it could be the ally that he found in wild space, he was incredibly powerful, but he was also smart, he would only reveal his power if he really needed to, and the rest of Palpatine's allies weren't that powerful either.

This disturbance could radically effect his plans. He needed to figure out what ever caused it in order to preserve his plans for the future. A future where the strong would survive and the weak die.

Line break

All was quiet on an unknown planet in wild space. The planet itself was covered in electrical storms, and in a palace, a dark form opened his completely emotionless eyes that were as black as a nightmare when he felt the disturbance in the Force and, for the first time in many years, emotion overcame his face as a slight smirk worked its way onto it as he heard the same warning that the Jedi Grand Master heard, but he didn't forget it.

"Prepare yourself…a new faction is about to enter the game."

And so the true battle begins.

Line break

"Aww, that's so cute!"

"In Chaos' name will you ever shut up!"

"Why? It's just so cute!"

"Yeah? Well I honestly don't care."

Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon and God of Heroes, face palmed, he was getting very fed up with Aphrodite going on and on about what she calls 'Ahsico' AKA Ahsoka/Nico, in fact, everyone on Olympus was getting very fed up with it.

Right now they were in the Olympian throne room, everyone was in the Council talking about the very thing that Percy, Hestia and Hades have kept a secret for the past five hundred years, the exiled Ghost King. Somehow, Aphrodite had found out about Nico and the galaxy at war, best guess is that she sensed Nico's crush/love for Ahsoka, Nico is, after all, part of this galaxy, part of her love pantheon, it was a wonder how they were able to keep this a secret from her for so long. Right now, Ares and Aphrodite were arguing over the apparent 'cuteness' of the relationship going on between the Jedi alien and the former Sith demigod.

Aphrodite gasped at what the God of War just stated, "How could you say that Ares? It's almost as cute as Percabeth."

Before the War God could say anything, a certain King of the Gods had had enough, "Silence!" Zeus thundered. He then turned to Percy, who was just sitting on his throne smacking his head against the headrest, very fed up with Aphrodite. "Perseus." He snapped gaining said Gods attention, "What gave you the right to withhold this information from us?"

Percy frowned, "Lord Zeus, with all due respect, I don't see why I should have told you. You sent Nico into exile and somehow he forgot everything that has to do with the gods, he isn't your problem anymore he's living up to his sentence of exile."

Zeus scowled, "Under different circumstances, I would agree with you." He said, but then he pointed at the Iris Message in the middle of the throne room, "But how was I supposed to know he was going to gain the power of the deities that live in that damn universe?! The last time we sent a demigod into exile was when Hades and Athena had there first demigod children." After he said this Hades growled angrily at the reminder while Athena remained impassive though you could see the anger in her grey eyes.

There were two Iris Messages in the room, but they weren't really messages, they were pictures, one of them were of Nico dressed in his Reaper suit taking on the five Jedi on Hypori and the second one was of Reaper and Ahsoka kissing after Nico saved her from the Sith.

Percy sighed and looked over to where all of the minor gods were sitting to look at his seven closest friends, he didn't tell them about Nico and they all obviously felt hurt that there best friend would withhold information this important from them.

First was Hazel, she had tears going down her face as she looked at the picture of Reaper, Percy couldn't imagine what kind of heartbreak she was going through seeing her long lost brother doing all of those horrible things, but once she looked at the other picture she smiled a watery smile, seeing her brother more happy then she has ever seen him.

Next to her was her husband, Frank Zhang, he hasn't changed much, he's still the same old slightly clumsy Frank who can change into animals. He had a slightly freaked out expression as he looked at the picture of Reaper, he was scared of Nico back when they first met at Camp Jupiter but now…well, just looking into the visor of the mask sends a shiver down his spine.

Next was Leo, who was sitting next to his wife Calypso, he was looking at Reaper's black lightsaber with a thoughtful expression while messing with something in his lap, if Percy didn't know any better, it looked like he was trying to build one of those things right now, he would need Hazels help for that, for only Hades/Pluto has lightsaber crystals. When he looked at the second picture, the thoughtful expression dissolved and his usual mischievous expression came up.

Next was Jason, who had a slightly miffed expression, understandable. After all, Reaper, AKA Nico, had lightning coming out of his freaking hands.

Piper was next to him, looking at the picture of Nico and Ahsoka with a small smile. She and Nico weren't exactly that close, but that doesn't mean she wasn't happy for the son of Hades.

And then there was Percy's wife, Annabeth Chase, she wasn't staring at the pictures like everyone else, instead, she was staring at Percy calmly, but her eyes told the truth, she was very pissed.

Percy winced as he looked into her eyes, they held anger and hurt. Percy knew he should have told her, but Hades didn't want anyone else to know about Nico, and now Percy was going to pay the price once this meeting was over and that price was going to be pain, lots of pain.

Percy looked back to Zeus, who was still glaring at him, his face turning red with rage as the son of Poseidon continued to ignore him, "I'm sorry what?" This drew an amused snort from Hermes.

Zeus' right eyebrow twitched as he breathed in a long breath and slowly let it out, trying to calm down, "It doesn't matter." He said through clenched teeth. "Now, what are we going to do about this?"

Artemis frowned, "About what? The boy is in a different galaxy, he's no longer our problem." She said, but she wasn't looking at her father, she was looking at the teenage Togruta with a thoughtful expression.

Zeus scoffed and pointed a finger at the image of Reaper, "Like I said before, I didn't know he was going to gain the power of the deities of that universe, for all we know he could come back here with an army of those Sith-Jedi things."

Poseidon chuckled slightly, "Brother, you are being paranoid. Remember, he has amnesia," He said as he took a glance at Hera, who just smirked, "besides, the boy is a little busy with a war of his own."

Apollo frowned, "I agree with father, children of Hades are known to hold grudges just like there father," He said, ignoring the irritated look that the Lord of the Underworld gave him, "How do we know that he won't bring that clone army here and attack Earth, despite how powerful we are, we can't go up against an entire galaxy. The mortals' technology may have become more advance in the last three thousand years, but they will be no match against the clone forces." He said, and everyone were very surprised by the seriousness in his voice.

Percy narrowed his eyes while looking at Apollo. When he was made a God Percy held a large grudge against the Sun God because of his part in Nico's banishment, but after eight hundred years he let that grudge go, and they eventually became friends, but now, it seems that Apollo's old grudge is resurfacing.

"What are you saying Apollo?" Percy asked with a raised eyebrow.

The Sun God scowled slightly, "I say we take him out before he sends his armies here to take us ou-" Before Apollo could finish that sentence he suddenly twitched violently, interrupting himself, and he suddenly stopped twitching, he sat up straight and looked out into space with no emotion on his face.

Artemis frowned in concern as she stared at her brother's completely stoic face, "Apollo, what is wrong?"

He twitched again and his bright blue eyes changed into a green misty colour, his mouth opened and green smoke started curling out of his mouth, it went all around the throne room and the other Gods inched away as the mist came closer, but then, a voice came from all over the room.

"Enemies of old will aid enemies of today,

Neither light nor darkness only grey can be decided,

The army of one will betray all that is light,

And seven old Heroes will answer the plight,

The Fate of a galaxy will be changed,

And it rests in the hands of the sibling of Revenge."

"You know what must be done, Lord Zeus," The voice echoed inside the Lightning Gods head so no one else could hear it, "For Olympus to survive, the Jedi must win."

That being said, the green mist quickly receded into the sun Gods mouth, his eyes turned back to here bright blue colour and he slumped down on his throne feeling like he just had a drinking competition with Dionysus.

The entire throne room was quiet you would be able to hear a pin drop, the IM's were still hovering in the middle of the throne room and everyone was staring at Apollo with wide eyes, they all broke out of their trance once they heard Apollo groan.

"Why does it feel like father just zapped me?" He questioned causing the lightning god to smirk slightly, but his face immediately turned stony as he remembered what it was Apollo just recited, or what the Oracle just recited, and what it had silently told him.

"You didn't get 'zapped' by father Apollo," Athena said, using air quotes. "You just recited, what was most likely a Prophecy."

Poseidon rolled his eyes, "You don't say bird brain."

Athena glared, "Don't call me bird brain, kelp-head."

Hermes leaned over to Ares, "Lovers quarrel." He muttered, as if that explained everything. Ares smirked and nodded his head in agreement.

The two arguing Gods turned there glares toward the God of messengers, "Shut up Hermes!" They snapped.

Zeus grit his teeth and aimed his Master Bolt into the air, letting a large and loud thunder clap go off, silencing the two arguing Gods, "Silence!" He thundered, "If you haven't noticed we have another Prophecy on our hands, and it wasn't delivered by the Oracle's host, it was delivered by Apollo, and that could only mean one thing-"

"-A Great Prophecy." Athena finished gravely.

Apollo frowned, "Oh," But his megawatt smile came back in a second. "So, What'd I say?"

Athena sighed and recited the Prophecy for Apollo, when she was done Apollo lost his megawatt smile and frowned thoughtfully.

"Well, that is certainly different."

Hestia cleared her throat, gaining the occupants of the throne rooms attention, "I have heard this Prophecy before." She said.

"When?" Zeus asked calmly, though you could hear the underlining anger in his voice.

"When me, Perseus and Hades were watching Nico, he had a dream which involved the three Fates and that exact same Prophecy." She said calmly, completely unperturbed by the anger in Zeus' voice.

"Wait, wait, wait," Apollo started, holding his hands up in an 'everyone freeze' gesture, "Hold the phone, are you telling me that a prophecy was made without me knowing it? And that it was told to that son of Hades before me?"

Hestia glanced at the irritated Sun God calmly, "It would appear so."

Artemis frowned, "What we should ask ourselves is why the Fates would tell him this Prophecy before they told the Oracle."

"Because it was about him," Apollo said thoughtfully, more to himself than anyone else, "If the Oracle or I was to be given the Prophecy then the son of Hades wouldn't have been able to hear it. And parts of the Prophecy sounds like that it's of that galaxy he's in, not this planet, 'The Fate of a galaxy will be changed,' that part of the Prophecy is obviously about the galaxy that we exiled the son of Hades too."

Zeus scowled, "Then why were we given this Prophecy?" He questioned, but he already knew the answer, he just didn't want to believe it.

"Because," Athena said before Apollo could open his mouth, "a line in the Prophecy 'Seven old heroes will answer the plight,'" She said, glancing at six minor Gods in particular and the God of Heroes.

Zeus frowned, noticing where she was glancing, "Athena the seven heroes could be anyone," Zeus tried to reason, "Just because they were the seven heroes of a prophecy over three thousand years ago doesn't mean that they are part of this prophecy."

The Goddess of Wisdom shook her head, "No, I'm sure it's them. The Prophecy says 'Heroes of old' and it was directed at the son of Hades, it would make sense because Di Angelo was the only child of Hades around during the time of the Prophecy of the Seven."

Said Seven Gods/Goddesses looked very uncomfortable about being talked about like they weren't even there.

Leo cleared his throat, gaining the rooms attention, "Umm, yeah, hi, even if this Prophecy is about us, so what, what'll happen?" He asked a little nervously.

Athena frowned, "Then you will do exactly as the Prophecy tells you too, you shall answer the plight."

Zeus sighed, "Even if the Prophecy is about them, what will we do? We have the ancient laws to consider and seven immortals can't just flash into another galaxy and say they are there to help, our pantheons immortal powers don't work in another deities galaxy. So I think-" He was interrupted once again, but by Hephaestus, who cleared his throat.

"Actually, I've been working on something that could help." He said.

Zeus raised an eyebrow, "Really?" He asked drawing a nod from the Blacksmith God, "Then what is it?"

Hephaestus nodded, "I'll be right back," He said as he got up from his throne and flashed out, a few seconds later he flashed back in with a container which looked like it could hold a human, it was a Chryo chamber, "This will help us." The god stated.

Ares raised an eyebrow, "What's in it?"

Hephaestus smirked and reached his hand up to wipe the viewport, once he did that, everyone could see who was inside it, it was an eighteen year old Percy Jackson.

"Well," Percy started, not knowing whether to be angry or creeped out, "That's disturbing."

Annabeth stood up from her much smaller throne, a bit more angered then Percy was, "Lord Hephaestus what is this? Why do you have an exact copy of my husband's body?"

Hephaestus stared at her for a second before moving his eyes around the entire throne room and sighed, "I started a secret experiment called 'Project Mortal' I have been gaining the DNA of different demigods who were turned into an immortal for the past four thousand years, with that DNA I created these bodies." He said gesturing toward the Percy clone in the chamber, "These clones aren't alive, they can't be, I don't know how to do that and I wouldn't want to anyway, what I do know though is that they can be controlled by the original person."

Athena frowned, "I'm not even following."

Hephaestus sighed, "Alright, let's put it into a more simpler way of saying it. They are basically 'Avatars' that are operated by a genetically matched God. These are mortal bodies that a God can access."

Athena blinked, "So what you're saying is that you found a twist in the Ancient Laws."

Hephaestus nodded, "Exactly. So we know that an immortals powers lower to that of a demigods whenever they enter a different pantheons, shall we say, 'turf', they are still immortal, but hey wont be able to get out of sticky situations by just flashing away, which is why I created this."

Zeus frowned, "And you didn't tell me about this because..?" He trailed off leaving Hephaestus to answer.

The Blacksmith just shrugged, "Because you wouldn't have allowed it, but does it really matter now?"

The King of the Gods' frown deepened but didn't say anything further on the subject. "Do they work?"

"Ah," Hephaestus said, "Now that's the question."

"Wait, you don't even know if they work?!" Ares exclaimed.

Hephaestus just smiled calmly, "Well, if I could be given a test subject," he said as he suddenly turned to Percy, "Percy," He said as he snapped his fingers and a metal casket came up next to him, "Get in."

Percy looked slightly affronted, "Umm, no." He said looking at Hephaestus weirdly.

"Why not?" The Blacksmith God asked with a frown.

"Because I don't like being anyone's Guinea pig." He said with a scowl, causing a small giggle to come from Annabeth as she remembered the good old days.

Hephaestus rolled his eyes, "Come on Percy, you owe me."

Before Percy could open his mouth to argue some more, Zeus intervened, "Perseus! Get your ass in that thing right now! This is meant to be a Council meeting and we've been arguing about the same thing for at least an hour!" The God of Lightning shouted, getting very fed up with the banter going on.

Percy gulped and nodded his head toward the King of Olympus, "Yes Lord Zeus." He said as he got up and walked over to Hephaestus, who opened the casket, revealing a light blue sort of spongy substance that was in a perfect cast of his body, making him raise an eyebrow looking at Hephaestus, "It looks like you expected me to be a test subject." He said as he climbed into the casket.

Hephaestus smirked and shrugged while messing with some kind of computer that was attached to his wrist, "Alright lie down, keep your arms and legs inside," The God said and Percy did just that. Hephaestus lowered a scanner on his body, causing Percy to raise his head an look at it but Hephaestus but his hand on his head and pushed it back down, "Keep the head down." He said firmly, Percy rolled his eyes but did as he was told, Hephaestus then grabbed the open casket lid, "Now, just relax and let your mind go blank…shouldn't be hard too hard for you." He said as he closed the lid before Percy could respond.

Hephaestus then looked at Percy's six closest friend, who were looking at the casket-thing with anxiety, especially Annabeth. He then looked back at the computer panel on his arm, "Initiating link. Sequence thirty-three. Link is stable. Launching." He said clicking a bunch of buttons on the computer on his arm and suddenly a bright flash came from the small cracks of the lid and the casket. It was gone before anyone could cover their eyes, leaving a small humming sound that was getting lower and lower until it stopped.

Hephaestus sighed, "Merge is complete. Let's see if he's okay." He said as he looked at the Chryo chamber and pressed a few buttons and it opened with steam coming out of it, once the steam was cleared up, a bleary eyes demigod son of Poseidon walked out with a little stumble, and Hephaestus caught him, "Whoa there, you're not used to your mortal body yet Perseus." Hephaestus then looked up at the rest of the Olympian Council, who were looking at him with wide eyes, and a proud smirk made its way on the Gods face "I give you the first mortal God." He announced.

Annabeth ran up to Percy and took him gently out of Hephaestus' arms. The son of Poseidon opened his eyes slightly, looking at Annabeth, "Hey Wise girl." He said with a smile.

Annabeth rolled her eyes, "Gods you're an idiot seaweed brain, I can't believe I let you do that."

Hephaestus cleared his throat, "Now let me remind you that this is his demigod form, so he only has his demigod powers over water, he doesn't have any power over time." Hephaestus didn't mention anything about his other two domains, Percy was already a hero and the only people who can match Percy in his swordsmanship would probably be his children.

Zeus frowned thoughtfully, staring at the clone in Annabeth's arms, "And you say you have created one for each of the seven?"

Jason suddenly stood up, irritated that these Olympians were acting like they weren't here, "Hey! Don't we get a say in this?" He asked with an irritated expression.

"No!" Every Olympian snapped back causing him to stumble back into his throne.

Hephaestus nodded at Zeus' question, "Yes, but there is a drawback, whenever the mortal form feels pain, the immortal form will feel that pain also. But if the mortal form dies then the immortal form won't fade, but will still need medical attention immediately otherwise they will eventually fade."

Zeus looked around the throne room, "Is it decided then? we send the heroes of the Prophecy out to this galaxy in there mortal clones, does everyone agree?"

Several nods were given, but one in particular Goddess of the Hunt had something else to say, "Father, if I may, I would like to go to this galaxy with my Hunt also."

Zeus raised an eyebrow, "And why, pray tell, would you want to do that?"

Artemis sighed, "I have been hunting for thousands of years on this planet, but it has become less of a challenge for me and my hunters, in this galaxy there is new prey that we could hunt and we could help the Seven with finding the boy or whatever he is," She said thinking about how old he was, "It's a large galaxy, they will need my abilities to track, besides, I'm the only immortal who is not effected by the ancient laws."

Zeus frowned in concern, "You do realise that you will no longer have the powers of a Goddess, you will be vulnerable."

Artemis smirked, "I'm never vulnerable, I don't need power when I have skill."

Zeus was still frowning but he nodded his consent, "Very well, you, your hunters and the seven will be going into this galaxy, find out what this Prophecy is about, and make sure the Jedi win, but I do advise caution, there are beings in this galaxy who may not be as strong as us, but are incredibly powerful nonetheless." He finished but then another thing came to mind, and he said this in Artemis' 'I will allow you to hunt for things in that galaxy but you are not bringing back the carcasses, and on last thing, the Jedi must win, by any means necessary, even if it means the eradication of the son of Hades.' Artemis nodded her head silently.

Hephaestus nodded to Zeus as he looked at the five Gods that were sitting on their thrones and then to Annabeth, "You six will have to get into your mortal bodies, you'll be given a week before the ship lifts off," Before they could say anything Hephaestus turned his head to Artemis, "And you, Lady Artemis, I don't have any mortal bodies for your hunters so you might want to keep the ship that is dropping them off into that galaxy intact, it will have the coordinates to get back to this planet on it."

Frank interrupted, "Wait, can't we, I dunno, talk about this before you send us out into this."

The Olympians glanced at each other then looked back at him and said all together, "No." Frank just sighed and sat back down next to his wife, who looked like the only one who was excited about going to this galaxy, probably because she'll be seeing her brother again.

Percy groaned, and stood up straighter than before without Annabeth's help, "Come on guys," he said encouragingly, "Nico was there when we needed him, now we should be there when he needs us."

Piper sighed, "He has a point, Nico was there to help us when we needed it during the second Giant war." She said as she looked to Jason, who reluctantly nodded his consent.

Leo just shrugged, "Hey, I go where you go, as long as it's alright with you." He added as he looked at his wife.

Calypso just smiled and nodded her head making Leo grin.

"Alright, I'm in."

They all looked to Hazel, who just stared back incredulously, "He's my brother, I would have gone even if you guys said no."

They then looked back to Frank, who just smiled tiredly, "I go where Hazel goes."

Percy smirked and turned back to Hephaestus, "We're ready when you're ready."

Hephaestus grinned, "You do realise that Athena is going to teach you the basics about this galaxy."

The six of them groaned while one of them smiled slightly at the fact that she'll be learning something brand new, three guesses on who that is.

Line break

Nico forced his eyes open and blinked in the darkness. He could tell it was way too early for him to be awake. He stared at the ceiling, confused for a moment as to where he was at. He tried to raise his arm to rub his eyes, but found it trapped. He looked over and saw Ahsoka curled up against him with his arm wrapped around her and her head resting against his chest. Nico stared at her face, focusing on the details. She was so close to him he could see every detail of her face. His eyes lingered on her lips and he remembered how soft they had felt against his the other night.

Nico sighed. Now that he knew what it felt like to kiss Ahsoka properly, to feel her body underneath his, to hear her groan when he touched her, he would never get over her. Nico sighed again and continued to watch Ahsoka's sleeping face. She looked so peaceful in the dark med bay. Nico knew that if she woke up right now and found him staring at her while she was asleep she would probably smack him over the head but he didn't really care. It was easier to just look at her and ignore everything around him than actually think about all of his emotional problems.

Nico shifted on the cot, getting a little more comfortable and trying to not disturb Ahsoka. Now that he was awake, her weight on his arm was getting uncomfortable. He wondered how guys could stand their girlfriends sleeping on them like that for the entire night. The Ghost King settles down in the bed and rubbed his face with his free hand.

Nico was surprised with himself. He felt at ease with Ahsoka at the moment, which usually was not the case with girls. Usually when they wanted to get all snuggly, Nico got really freaked out and uncomfortable for no apparent reason. He just didn't like the feeling of intimacy, but with Ahsoka he didn't mind at all. In fact, he liked it. Nico liked being close to her and holding her body close to his.

Ahsoka muttered something in her sleep and one of her hands moved down and curled around his hip. Nico watched her eyes move under closed eyelids. He remembered last night when he was comforting her, she had looked so vulnerable and young, the complete opposite of how she usually looked.

He was about to wake her up but stopped as she moved a little and smiled slightly. Whatever she was dreaming about, it was obviously a nice dream, so he decided to let her rest. Nico yawned and looked over to the table next to the cot, where a datapad was at. it was eight in the morning, Coruscant time. And if the slight humming of the ship is anything to go by, they haven't dropped out of hyperspace yet. Nico leaned back against the pillows, absently stroking Ahsoka's left montral. He was tired but he couldn't fall back to sleep.

Nico knew it would be best if he snuck out of Ahsoka's room/med bay without her waking up and act like last night never happened, she could go on being a Jedi and one day become a great Jedi Knight and not have to hide their relationship from the Jedi Council, if the Jedi found out about them she would probably gain titles like, 'The failed Padawan of the Chosen One' or 'The Jedi who fell for a Sith'. But leaving her would probably hurt Ahsoka's feelings and he didn't want to hurt her, especially after the entire ordeal with Angral and his mercaneries. And he wasn't quite ready to leave her. He was warm and comfortable and didn't want to sneak out of her room like some douchebag who didn't want to deal with a one night stand. He didn't want to act like he was ashamed to have been in the same bed or room as Ahsoka.

At the thought of Angral, Nico no longer felt so relaxed. A Pureblood. Angral was a Sith Pureblood.

Nico wasn't worried about the power that Angral wielded, it was literally nothing. His species though, is another thing entirely. They were the original Sith. Thought to have died out during the times of the Old Republic, during the cold war. Then again, they were thought to be extinct before then as well.

At first the Sith Pureblood's were nothing more than a barbaric warrior race that held a great strength with the Force, it was rare to find a none-Force-user among them. Though, after the Hundred-year Darkness of Jedi VS Dark Jedi, Human Dark Jedi began to interbreed with the Sith, who thought the Dark Jedi were Gods because of their trained power in the Force, so the Sith thought they were breeding Half-blood Demigods. For nearly two thousand years, superstition, loyalty and sympathy were bred out as the two groups interbred, and qualities such as cunning, ambition and affinity to the Force were favoured, which shaped Sith society over the centuries.

Characteristics shown would be determined depending on how much Dark Jedi or Sith blood an individual possessed due to interbreeding. By the time of the Great Hyperspace War, the majority of the Sith mainly displayed Sith Pureblood trait. Thanks to the interbreeding, the Purebloods soon gained characteristics of humans, like a humanoid body, but they still bared traits of the Pureblood that they used to be, the red skin, red eyes, and small cheek tendrils. Exactly what Angral is.

The Sith had been part of many battles in the Hyperspace war, the Sith war and the Jedi Civil war but then, mysteriously, they eventually just seemed to disappear, vanishing to become part of history, told to little children as if they were a mythical monster. The species were believed not to be seen or heard of ever again. However the Sith Lords' ancient teachings continued to plague the galaxy as the term Sith branched to refer to an arcane cult of devotees who dedicated themselves to studying the dark side lore and ways of the original Sith; taking the species' name as their own, rather than being connected to the species itself. Like Sidious or Dooku…or himself.

Nico pushed those thoughts aside as he felt Ahsoka stir. The Togrutan Padawan stretched against him. Nico moved, giving her a little space and looked down at her. He watched her open her ocean-blue eyes. Ahsoka blinked up at him in confusion before she remembered. Nico held his breath while he waited for her reaction to waking up with him leaning over her.

"Nice hair," she smiled up at him, her voice rough with sleep.

Nico smirked, relieved that she wasn't mad. He wasn't sure how she was going to feel about Nico spending the night in her room, even though she had been the one to invite him to stay with her. "Yeah, that's what happens when you have hair Princess."

She pushed at him, but she was giggling. Nico grinned at her and used his hand to stroke her right montral, causing her eyes to widen and then close in pleasure as she literally purred, albeit softly.

Nico raised an eyebrow as he looked at her face, which showed absolute pleasure, "Did you just purr?" He questioned incredulously.

Ahsoka smiled sensually, "Do you know what a head tail is?" She questioned as she opened her eyes to look at him, still purring softly, Nico shook his head, "My people use those for hunting, and they are extra sensitive, and what you're doing is making me very happy." She finished with a moan as she tried to move Nico's hand closer.

The Ghost King's eyes widened and moved his hand away, causing Ahsoka to groan in disappointment, but she immediately shook her head and came back to her senses and blushed madly as Nico looked at her with a grin.

Though Ahsoka smirked slightly as she reached up and gently pressed a finger to his cheek, "Your dimples are adorable," she told him, smiling mischievously.

"Shut up, Princess," Nico said in a mock-annoyed tone, pulling away from her. Ahsoka laughed again and sat up, rolling out of the bed. As she got up she made her way toward one of the cabinets of the med bay and opened it, revealing her extra Jedi clothing, her usual tight fitting attire along with Anakin and Nico's robes.

Nico raised an eyebrow, "Umm, why are my robes on this hunk of junk."

Ahsoka shrugged as she grabbed her clothes, "Master Skywalker used them for emergencies. Now, get out. I want to take a shower."

Nico sighed as he got up and headed toward her, "Fine, but don't take too long, I want a shower as well and I can't do that if all the water is gone," he said as he reached into the cabinet and grabbed his extra robes.

Before Nico left to check on R5, he hesitantly leaned over to Ahsoka and kissed her cheek, just to see what her reaction was. She immediately blushed and looked down, but she had a small smile on her face and didn't protest, causing Nico to smirk as he made his way toward the med bay door.

This might actually work out.

Hello people, it's been a while hasn't it? I've got my exams over and done with and I have my fingers crossed that I'll get good grades (except for science, I know I did crap with that). This chapter is just a filler by the way, but as you can see, the seven will be coming in and, as a twist, Artemis and her hunters. Adding the hunters isn't exactly important to the plot, but I want to make things more interesting.

As for the mortal body thing, I got the idea from the movie 'Avatar', you know the movie which has those blue alien things or whatever they are. I'm not sure if I explained it good enough for you to understand, I hope you do understand because I don't know any other way I can explain it.

Now, what I'm about to say here is very important to the story so listen up.

I'm about to reach a part of the story which I have nicknamed 'The point of no return' alright? I'm about to reach a part of the story where I have two plots in mind but I can obviously only use one.

One of the plots is the cliché sort of thing where a Jedi turned Sith stops Anakin from becoming a Sith, defeats Sidious and gets the girl and they all live happily ever after blah blah blah.

The second plot I'm not going to explain to you but it will take longer to write but it wont be the cliché Jedi save the galaxy thing, it'll be a bit more unique then that. But be warned, if you do want this plot I might get stuck in the middle of the story because I may get stuck on what to do next.

I'll be putting up a poll saying if you would like the cliché plot or the unique one, and I would just like to warn you once again, the unique plot will take longer for me to do because I've got to come up with my own episodes in star wars.

Anyway, now that we've got that out of the way, let get into the reviews...

HiddenHero220 chapter 16 . May 10

Nico, seriously? This was her first time kissing someone and you...*starts banging head on table*

Yeah, I think I know what your talking about, Nico getting a bit more, well, aroused then he should be, but I edited it now, he doesn't have the, um, yeah, you know.

Airanger78 chapter 16 . May 10

I love this chapter!

Thanks!

nico-and-bianca-di-angelo chapter 16 . May 10

i was cheesy but i still thought they got together nicely and i love your writing

Yeah, I know, very cheesy, but I couldn't think of any other way to get them together.

aoe123 chapter 16 . May 11

That was a bad ass chapter, but that cheesy, really cheesy. Cute though! Dont stop writing :)

I liked writing the chapter, but if you liked that chapter, you'll probably love the last chapter of this story.

ChristianCountryGirl chapter 16 . May 11

nice chapter, I really like the part where nico goes all awesome, and totally destroys the enemy, but please don't keep this story rated t when it comes to romance, I'd greatly appreciate it! Jesus Christ bless ya!

Thanks for the compliments, but I'm not sure you typed it down properly, I think you want me to keep it rated T correct? Well, they are two hormonal teenagers but don't worry I wont be doing anything smutty.

shadow ninja chapter 16 . May 12

good. also I have an oc I came up with that I think you will like he is called plygore he is a torture/executioner for the sith he is from utapa and he is from the same species as the one that spoke to obi wan in the 3rd movie the name is paun-something if you know what it is called let me know because I can't remeber what that species is called. anyway he has a mechanical eye and he is force sensitive he likes to experiment on his prisoners and study them. what do you think?

Umm, yeah sure, I guess I could use him, I can't promise you anything but I could try, oh and I think the species your thinking of is Pau'an.

odar chapter 16 . May 13

where are halh blood and god?

I have no idea what you just wrote.

WomanOfTheWind chapter 13 . May 14

Me: My violin teacher once told me-

Nico: *sighs* NOT another one of these little lesson things, Woman. And what's a violin?

Me: *glaring* 1. Shut up before I run you through with my katanas. 2. My name is ZHIA (which I will be reviewing from from now on). 3. You wouldn't know what a violin is.

Nico: I would like to see you try to run me through with those- whatever they are. You don't have the skill to defeat me.

Me:*narrows eyes* we'll see about that.

(Nico tries to attack from behind, but Zhia blocks with her dual katanas.) (Epic battle commences)

Nico: Ha ha! I win.

Me: nope. (Zhia knocks him unconscious)

Me: Ok... Now that I have that done: I am so sorry about that by the way. Ok... Let's start over...

Me: my violin teacher once told me that a listener told HER that she played her violin so beautifully that it sounded like she was singing. Well, you are that violinist and this is that song. Great work.

Ahsoka: NO! GET AWAY FROM HIM, YOU MONSTER!

Me: not again...
Well, I hope it's not too late to submit an OC, because one is coming in the next review. Again, great work!

*Snort* This made me chuckle, I love the imagination some of you guests have, you should really get your own account on this place, it would have been easier to talk about your OC. Anyway you've changed your name to Zhia, alright got it. Now lets talk about your OC cause I'm not going to put up all three of your reviews. First of all I must thank you. Your OC is the first one that actually puts all the stuff on it that I want, but there are some stuff I would like to talk about.

So you just made up a planet and made her an elemental? What I see here is that you turned her into a daughter of Zeus, sorry but you've gone over the limit when it comes to powers. And when you say a Sith ship invaded her home planet do you mean a Trade Federation ship? Because if a Sith ship invaded her planet then I'm pretty sure she would have told the Jedi about it.

I could use her but reduce her power and we'll see what I can do, she'll probably be a friend of Ahsoka's.

Okay, calmer now. So beautiful! Well... the end was. The beginning... not so much. Good luck you two. You're gonna need it.

Thank for the compliments!

Asi chapter 16 . Jun 7

I love how your story is developing so far! Keep up the great work!

Thanks!

Alright people, I've got enough OC's so its time to stop submitting them, if this keeps up I wont know what to do with them, and I'm starting to get enough Sith torturers.

Great stories I recommend are:

'Dark Phoenix'. Author: Lighningscar. Crossover: PJO x Harry Potter.

'Death's Avenger'. Author: Sinsidhe. Crossover: PJO x Avengers.

'Everlasting Promises'. Author: Starblade176. Story: PJO

Anaklusmos14 is a great author and all his stories are amazing. So is TheseusLives.

Thank you for reading and if you have any questions just ask them in the reviewers box or PM me. Please review.
