Well, here's the next chapter. Thanks so much for all of your reviews!! I don't have time to answer them all now, but I will next chapter.

IMPORTANT!!: I made a mistake in the last chapter. I said that the Skywalker triplets can copy comic book superhero powers, i. e. : X-Men, Fantastic Four, blah blah. Those are Marvel comics, and the Flash is from DC comics. I didn't mean the Flash, I meant Quicksilver. So just put in Quicksilver (he's Magneto's son) instead of Flash. Okay? Thanks to Writin' Dude for bringing that to my attention. Anyways, let's move on to...

DUN DUN DUN DUNNN!! REVIEWERS TORTURING SITH LORDS!!!

(We last left our Sith and Princes during a trial. Well, the trial's over now, and we've decided to keep on torturing them for all their evildoings...)

Eh, I'm bored. What should we do. (Looks at Delta Squad and Raven, then to other reviewers chasing Sith.)

Raven: Wait for it... wait for it...

(Sith run by Delta Squad)

Raven: Okay, go.

(Delta Squad runs after Sith and Princes, and everyone watches and laughs as they slip and fall)

Sith and Princes: AAAUGH!

Arie Skywalker: I have some Cheeze-whiz and I'm not afraid to use it!! (Sprays Xizor and Isolder in the faces)

Xizor: NO!!! NO CHEESE!! I'M ALLERGIC!

Isolder: MY HAIR!! AAAAAAAHHHH!!

Zim: Palps, feel my fuzzy slippers of DOOOM!! (Chases Palps around)

Palps: RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!

Jedi Man: (Traps Palps in a room full of mirrors) HA HA! Try using your Sith lightning now!!

Palps: I WILL! DIEE! DIEE! (Uses Sith lightning but gets himself instead) AAAAAAAAHHHH!

Back to Elena!!!


Disc: I own Elena. I don't own Star Wars.

Chapter 7

Elena awoke shortly after the explosion; her cuts and gashes healing back together. She groaned, slowly opened her eyes to see a smoky sky, little fires beginning to grow along the grassy plains. She lay there for a second, listening to the burning of the flames before gingerly lifting her head up.

"M.J.," she called out hoarsely, trying to see where Mara was. "M.J.? Mara?" She sat up, cracking her neck and looking around, frowning. Suddenly, she glanced down at her side and gasped in horror.

Mara Jade lay still on the singed ground… covered in blood, ash, and dust, her clothes torn apart. Her eyes were shut, and her face was cut and bruised nearly to the point beyond recognition.

Elena stared at her in disbelief. "Mara…" she whispered, brushing a stray hair from her face, "No…" She turned her friend so that she was lying on her back and felt her neck for a pulse.

Nothing.

Panicking, she lifted her wrist, checking for any sign of life.

None. There was no movement, no heart beating, and no Force presence. Elena reached out frantically into the Force, but no sign of Mara's unique signature.

Mara Jade was dead.

"NO!" Elena screamed, grabbing Mara's shoulders and shaking them, "I WON'T LET YOU DIE! YOU WILL NOT DIE!" Breaking down into sobs, she hugged her dead friend tightly. "You can't…" she cried, "You just can't be dead, Mara…" She gently laid her back down and stared at her, her own hot tears dripping onto the body of her best friend.

Elena stared down at Mara and placed a hand on her forehead, closing her eyes as more tears ran down her face. She didn't care that she wasn't being like a Jedi, she didn't care she was feeling pain, suffering… death. She didn't –

Without warning, Elena's eyes flew open and she gasped, frozen. She stared, trembling, at her hand on Mara's forehead and felt a searing pain rush through her entire body, sucking the very life force out of her. She couldn't move. She couldn't breathe. All she could do was watch her apparently dead friend as she began to slowly die herself.

But something was happening to Mara. Her bloody face slowly began to mend itself. Her cuts slowly closed up, her battered body healing from the head downwards. Mara's chest started to move up and down, her heart beating once more. The light in the Force that had gone out suddenly lit up once more, showing stronger than it had before.

Elena, shaking uncontrollably now, eyes bloodshot, somehow managed to pry her stiff hand off of Mara's forehead, glanced one last time at her friend, and keeled over, unconscious, on the ground.

Mara opened her eyes and bolted up, all clean and fresh, completely nursed back to health. She stared at her hands and looked at Elena, whose cuts and gashes were growing. Mara sighed, crawled over to her friend, and took her cold hand.

"Why didn't you tell me before, Elena?" she whispered.

Mara lifted Elena out of the speeder and carried her to their ship. She placed Vader's daughter on a bunk and gazed at her for a second before hurrying to the cockpit and starting the engines.

The ship took off from Dantooine, leaving the planet far behind as the craft jumped to hyperspace. During the entire trip back to Imperial City, Elena did not wake, move; and Mara knew her condition was deteriorating. She would soon be dead without medical attention.

But how will the doctors react when they find out about Elena's special ability? Mara wondered. The Emperor's Hand was dreading and yet in earnest to return to Coruscant. She was not only worried about what Vader would do once he saw Elena, but how she was going to explain this to her master. It was then she decided not to tell him anything and hope he didn't punish her if he found out.


The Saboteur zoomed into Coruscant city, racing towards Darth Vader's palace.

"This is Mara Jade requesting permission to land," Mara said in a rushed tone. "I have an emergency here!"

After an agonizing second, a voice replied, "Please give the identification code."

Mara quickly pressed in the code and waited. She heard Elena moan, and whisked around. "Elena!" She rushed over to her and pressed a hand to her forehead. "AH!" she cried, quickly pulling her hand away and rubbing it. Elena's forehead was hotter than a burning pipe.

As she stood, wondering how in the world Elena was still alive if she had a fever that high, the link between her and the palace beeped. She growled, forgetting her hand, and answered the com. "What?"

"You have permission to land in docking bay five," the voice said, "Commence to the bay."

Mara shook her head and piloted the ship downwards towards the bay. "Finally."

Elena continued to moan as she started shaking again. Her body began to toss restlessly back and forth, her temperature spiking up from her core.

"Hang on, Elena!" Mara said, and flew the ship into the docking bay, where she landed the ship and turned off the engines. She turned around and –

"What in the…" she trailed off, staring at Elena, who was covering in flames! She grabbed an electro-hydrant and sprayed Elena with it, dousing her in water. Elena didn't stop shaking, but the fire that had begun to spread was gone.

Elena's body suddenly became inflamed again, causing Mara to shout, stumbling backward. The Emperor's Hand stared in shock as Vader's daughter became covered in flames, but wasn't burning up…

The electro-hydrant sprayed Elena again, and Mara heaved her body over her shoulder and hurried down the ramp, where Vader and Jenson were striding towards her, two lines of stormtroopers on either side.

Vader was eager to see his daughter again, wondering how the mission had gone. But when the hatch came down, and Mara stumbled out, he knew something was dreadfully wrong. On her shoulder, a limp body hung. He picked up his pace and met them at the end of the ramp.

"Elena?" he said, touching his daughter's back. He had to pull back when his hand, though prosthetic, began to burn.

"I have to get her off me," Mara cried, "She's burning up!"

Vader and Jenson pulled her off, and Mara rubbed her shoulder in pain. The Sith stared at his daughter and motioned for a medical cot. "Hurry!" he ordered urgently. Turning to Mara, he fixed her with a look. "What happened?" his tone brooked no argument.

Mara didn't say anything as Elena was lifted onto a stretcher and led away to the hospital.


The plot thickens again! Revenge of the Idiots is also updated, just in case you didn't know! Also the next chapter will be longer, I promise.

Maul: I don't want it to be longer! (growls)

Arie Skywalker: Who cares? I don't! (Sprays him in the eyes with some more Cheese-Whiz)

Zim: Palps, this is your end!

Palps: No it's not! I refuse to die! (Stupidly tries to fry the mirrors, but keeps hurting himself)

Raven: Sheesh. Sith sure are stupid people.

Jedi Man: (Sprays spray paint on Dooku and Maul while Zim laughs hysterically)

That's it for now, people. Hope you enjoyed this chapter!! Now all you gotta do is review and we're good. Thanks!
