Chapter 29

Revan disembarked her ship and saw Anak… Sadow. He had just flipped backwards, engaging Obi-wan in battle. She hid back, watching her beloved apprentice. Frantically they dueled, blue blades flashing back and forth, twisting and striking only to be met by the other's blade. Sadow drove Kenobi back towards the lava, only to have him twist away back into the center. Sadow kicked him square in the chest, so he flew onto a narrow bridge over lava. They entered a room, Sadow attacking fiercely. They entered a hallway, lightsabers hitting either side, gauging the metal. AS they exited into the room where Sadow had slain the Separatists, he slammed Kenobi's lightsaber into a control panel. Sadow caught him by the throat with his mechanical arm. Kenobi cried out. Sadow strained, pushing Kenobi backwards, twisting Kenobi's own lightsaber towards his throat. He fell away as he was kicked in the back. He slammed into him with both feet. Sadow ran towards him, only to be knocked down as Kenobi close lined him with his foot. He slid back as Kenobi called his lightsaber to him. Quickly, Sadow called his back in time to block the strike. Sparks flashed as they battled. Each brought their hand around. They strained with the Force to shove one another back. Both flew across the room, slamming into a control panel. Sadow soared across the room. Neither realized that the strike of their sabers had disabled the shields over the lava. Red lights flashed. A door opened, and Kenobi backed through it.

They battled as they backed down the hall. Neither gave an inch. Sadow kicked Kenobi in the face. He jumped backwards onto a metal pylons suspended over the lava. Sadow followed. Again they dueled, fighting to keep their balance. Temporarily calling truce, they raced off as the lava splashed onto the metal, melting it. They hid from the flying droplets of lava. Metal screamed as it fell. Kenobi and Sadow raced, climbing as fast as they could up the falling pylon. Hanging on for dear life, they could only watch as their pylon drifted nearer and nearer to the falls. Still they fought. Grabbing a hanging wire, Kenobi swung away. Sadow followed. Sabers crashed. Releasing the wire, Kenobi dropped onto a shielded platform. Sadow followed, landing on a small droid. As they battled, they drifted nearer to shore. Fiercer and fiercer they fought. This was a battle of life, and for dominance.

"I have failed you Anakin. I have failed you." His blue eyes were sorrowful. "I should have known the Jedi were plotting to take over."

Sadow glared hatefully at his former Master.

"Anakin, Revan is evil!" Kenobi cried.

"From my point of view the Jedi are evil."

"Then you are lost!" Kenobi replied. They glared at each other.

"This is the end for you, my Master." Sadow flipped over Kenobi's head, landing on his platform. He almost fell as Kenobi swung wildly.

Kenobi landed upon the shore, slipping slightly on the gravelly rocks. "It's over Anakin! I have the high ground." Kenobi smirked.

"You underestimate my new powers." Revan could see that Sadow was about to jump.

"NOOOOOOOO!!!" Both heads whipped around as Revan charged down the hill.

"Rev!" Sadow cried.

"Darth Revan!" Kenobi cried at the same time. "I'll kill you bitch!" Kenobi snarled. Revan struck him on the head with the hilt of her lightsaber. He crumbled to the ground. Sadow lightly landed next to Revan.

"Do not."

"How…"

Revan snorted. "I can read you like an open book, even without the bond."

Sadow pursed his lips.

"Leave him alive."

"WHAT?!?" Sadow protested.

"It is more torture for him to see what has become of the Jedi, and his old Padawan. He will always remember his failing, and will suffer for it." Revan turned, and strode up the hill. Sadow followed.

Behind them, Kenobi stirred. "You were the Chosen One! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them! Bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness!"

Sadow turned. "I hate you!"

"You were my brother Anakin. I loved you." He reached out, and grasped Anakin's lightsaber. Sadow turned away. He linked arms with Revan. They boarded her ship.
