Chapter 4- Welcome to Hell
Two hours later…
Darkness was all Sasha could see after the missile exploded behind her and Cayden, and she fell unconscious. She felt herself coming to and slowly opened her eyes. She was lying in a slightly lit room on a soft bed. At first it looked like her quarters at the base, but then she noticed that her ankle was chained to the bed. Automatically she reached for her belt to find her lightsaber gone.
Sighing, she looked around the room. It looked like a normal quarters you would find on a public frigate. It had a bed, a refresher, and a small nightstand. Suddenly a thought occurred to her as she looked around the room… where's Cayden? She sat up abruptly and regretting it. Her stomach hurt with a passion. Looking down at herself, she noticed some small burns and bruises on her arms. She then removed her belt and pulled up her tunic. Her stomach was bruised slightly and bleeding from a cut on her stomach.
She groaned. This was just perfect. She was injured again. Lowering her shirt, she scolded herself. This always seems to happen (not all the time though) where she gets injured and appears weak. Sasha knew she was stronger and better than this, but she guessed all of this was because she had never faced some of these opponents in her life, and some have managed to outsmart her and bring her down. Or like Master Bant says, "she caught the Obi-wan medical problems bug. "She guessed this time was Ventress' win.
The door slid open and a super battle droid entered. It unlocked her ankle and roughly hauled her to her feet. Grabbing her belt, Sasha tied back around her waist.
"Follow me," it said. And she did.
He led her down this long corridor to a lift that they climbed onto. It took them up to the top of the large infrastructure they were in. The doors opened up into a small lobby with one large door. That door opened as they approached it. It looked like a command center, but with a giant panel of screens each showing a different section of the building and changing images every minute. In front of the screens stood Ventress.
"Master Kenobi's pet," Ventress started. "I thought he was done after Skywalker?"
"Well I guess you were wrong," Sasha said.
Ventress turned to face her.
"You have a sharp tongue like Skywalker's padawan. She obviously didn't warn you to watch it."
"Oh she mentioned it alright, but I hear it's still fun."
She narrowed her eyes at Sasha, but smirked.
"So what do you want with me? Or were just looking for someone to join you in a tea party?" she asked joking.
Ventress smiled. "You are going to become my servant."
"Ha! Nice try, but been there, done that, and never going back."
"What if I told you, that should you disobey, your friend will suffer?"
She changed one of the screens to a room, torture room, where Cayden hung either asleep or unconscious. Tensing, Sasha looked back to Ventress.
"You wouldn't dare."
"Try me." She flipped a switch and a droid came over and stabbed him with an electro staff. Cayden cried out.
"Alright! Stop!" Sasha said. "I'll do it."
"Perfect."
"But on one condition. You let me tend to him and eat with him, and spend time with him."
"Fine, only 40 minutes."
"Two hours."
"One or else." She put her finger nears the switch.
"Deal."
Ventress smirked. "Oh we are going to have so much fun with each other. Now take her to her friend and give her a med kit."
"Roger, roger," the SBD said.
Rolling her eyes, she let the droid escort her to Cayden.
A few minutes later, they stopped outside a door down several floors in the cell bay (only two floors below her room). Opening the door, the droid handed her the med kit and pushed her in. She glanced at the door, watching it close, before turning to Cayden now lying on the floor unconscious. Now that she was closer, she could see the bruises and the awkward position his right leg was in. She walked over and knelt down beside him, placing his head gently in her lap. She gently stroked his cheek. Cayden stirred and woke up.
"Sash," he said softly. "Is that you?"
"I'm here… are you alright?" she asked.
He shrugged. "Sort of."
She smiled and moved over to the med kit. She did a quick scan of his injuries with the force then patched what needed to be wrapped, and splinted his leg. He had a broken leg and a bad burn on his arm, other than that he was alright. When she was done, she helped him to sit up and lean against the wall. She sat next to him.
"Thanks. What about you?" he asked. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine," she said adjusting herself.
He cocked an eyebrow and she gave in. She removed her belt and pulled her tunic up just enough to see the bruise and cut. He narrowed his eyes in worry.
"Does it hurt?" he reached over to touch it gently.
"Only a little." She pulled her shirt back down. "But it's fine."
Cayden shook his head and grabbed the kit. He gestured for her to lie down in his lap. Sighing, she lay her head in his lap being cautious of his leg. He pulled her shirt up to reveal the injury again. He pulled out a wet cloth and cleaned the cut. She winced at first, but let the pain fade with the force. He then placed a bacta over the cut then wrapped up her mid-section. Once he was done, he helped her to sit up as she pulled her tunic down. Replacing her belt around her waist, she moved to sit next to him again.
"So what does Ventress want with us?" Cayden asked.
"She wants to use me as her servant and you are going to suffer if… if I don't do her bidding," Sasha said.
Cayden grabbed her hand and squeezed it.
"Well I know that if I suffer it's because you did something you thought was right. So it's worth it."
"But…"
"No buts," he said softly. "Now let's enjoy this moment."
"At least we're here together in this hell." They laughed.
Yeah there are ok! Sort of…seriously people review.
