Hope you are hooked on the story now, this is a mystery chapter but the next one is when it is all going to open up ;) Review pleeeaaassseeeee x
Dex had been led into the main area, which looked like a really big cantina, it reminded him of his life he was now leaving behind. But it was now his future, for hopefully the best. Malbo could not express how sorry he was for the way he had been treated. What Dex wanted to find out was why he was told to push against the left wall halfway down the ladder. Malbo looked at the piece of paper he had given Dex and couldn't see anything wrong with it, he asked Dex to go through it with him and Dex misread the directions. It said 'Go to the bottom of the ladder, and halfway on the door bang' Dex was still angry, angry about being shocked, pointed at with a gun. No doubt he could of taken on the guard but he didn't want to get on the wrong side of anyone…just yet. Malbo was now glad that Dex was safe with the resistance and that Ghost 1 was now home. If he ever lost him….he didn't know what he would do. It was thanks to him that was alive and he would never forget it. Malbo showed Dex where he would be sleeping, it wasn't much but he was one of the lucky ones who had a bed. Not many of them did, they only had the cold floor to sleep on.
**NEXT MORNING**
Dex woke with a throbbing headache, what had all happened seemed like a dream. But it couldn't be, he woke up with pain in his back and above him all he saw was a grey ceiling. Once he was awake he went around his environment, taking in everything that was now what it was. There wasn't many people up at this time but he didn't even know what time it was. He normally could tell the time from the position of the sun, but the only light down here was from light, flames and yellow eyes piercing the room from corners. He felt low, he had never felt like this, not even when order 66 was announced. He was worse that day. Malbo came through to the main cantina and saw Dex, he went up to him and gave him smile.
"You-sa not happy?"
"No…."
"You-sa miss home"
"Yeah…..when, when do we start an attack"
"We-sa not ready yet. We-sa need time, plan we must" Malbo sounded very sad when he said this, he looked his age now, he knew it was unlikely he would live to see the day the empire fell, but by god was he going to help them. For the next couple of days Dex was settling into his own home, he had forgotten all about what he came to tell Malbo. SITH! Sprung to his mind. He ran through the cantina to find Malbo but to no avail he couldn't find him. He saw Delta 3 looking over everyone.
"Delta 3!"
"Sir?" Came the rusted voice
"Where is Malbo? I have something of grave importance to tell him NOW!"
"He is out doing his duty."
"UGH! Get him on the com system now he needs to get back here!"
"Sir, I cannot do that whilst they are in motion doing their duty"
"Are you def?" Dex lifted Delta 3 off his feet by the throat
"NOW LISTEN! I need Malbo here now, the sith are returning along with the empire so we are going to have any chance I need to speak to him NOW!"
"Em….Ugh….Right away sir" Dex never meant to intimidate Delta 3 but it seemed the only way to get his message across to him. Dex waited in the conference room for him to return. Malbo was not pleased. Yeah they were friends but he had no right to control Malbo, after all he had been a senate for his people and would not stand for any nonsense.
"Dex! How dare you-sa stop me-sa in a mission"
"Its about the empire"
"And it couldn't wait until me-sa came back?"
"Unfortunetly no. I remembered what I was keen to tell you. The empire have returned…."
"Well dugh" said Ghost 1
"But so have….So have the sith"
Nobody said a word. They knew that Darth Vader was a sith Lord but when saying that THE sith had returned was something more. If the sith were returning like Dex said then there was no hope for the resistance. They couldn't take on the galaxy if there were humans and other species wielding lightsabers and having the force in their abilities. Malbo now had to rethink everything.
"How do you know this?" Asked Ghost 1
"2 came into my cantina" Dex said, now they were extrememly interested in Dex's story. Dex ran through what had all happened that day and if he was right he wouldn't have been safe at his cantina so that's why he decided to join the resistance. Malbo took notes on the description of the 2 "siths" that came into the cantina and would have Ghost 1 keep an eye out for them. Only problem was, how would you kill them? Only way they knew of was with another lightsaber, but that was impossible, all the Jedi were dead. All of a sudden everyone seemed to loose hope.
"Malbo!" cried a guard from outside
"Yes?"
"Hologram incoming, hidden and non-traceable but they claim they know who you really are? They wouldn't explain what they meant"
"Ok…Dex come with me-sa, Ghost 1, come but stay in shadow of room"
"Yes Sir" immediately Ghost 1 vanished into the shadows, untraceable not even making a sound.
Malbo had no idea who knew their hologram system key, it was impossible for anyone else to know apart from the communication techs and he trusted them, surely there wasn't a mole within the resistance. But what if there was? How would they be able to detect them? And if the mole was real…..were they all in danger?
What did you all think? Review please x
