Chapter 7
Ben walked into the archives. He knew in his mind that he would find the meaning of his dream here. Ben slowly approached a computer, wary that Stormtroopers, or worse, the sith, could be lurking around any corner. As he sat down, Ben reached out with the Force to sense if anyone was watching him. 'Nothing,' Ben thought, 'I'd love to take that as a good sign, but something doesn't feel right.'
Ben hurriedly hacked into the Imperial database in search of anything that might relate to a giant moon shaped space station. After about thirty minutes of searching, something caught his eye. Ben opened it and read that an Imperial station, code named "The Death Star" was under construction and was quickly on its way to completion. He continued down the page and read that when this station was finished, it would have the power to destroy an entire planet with a single blast.
Ben reached out with the force again. He soon realized that the room had become much quieter since he entered. No one was searching the computers next to him. In fact, he couldn't see anyone at all. "Stand up, jedi." A voice came from behind. Ben slowly rose to his feet and turned around. The sith was standing there with his lightsaber in hand. "Your lightsaber, please. We wouldn't want any of these innocent people to die." Ben reluctantly took his lightsaber from his belt and handed it to the sith. "Good. Now, come with me. Lord Vader wants to see you himself." The sith raised the hilt of his saber and slammed it over Ben's head.
The apprentice quickly slaughtered everything that drew breath in that facility. Those were Vader's orders. No one must know that he exists, especially someone who might tell the Emperor. Now he drug the jedi towards his ship and told his pilot to take off towards Vader's flagship. The pilot nodded and punched in the coordinates. The apprentice locked the jedi in the back room, so that he wouldn't try to take over the ship somehow. 'When we reach Vader,' the apprentice thought to himself, 'he'll be in so much pain that he'll wish he were dead.'
