Chapter 12 Part 2
Author's Note: I have a prequel for this story ready to be posted (It's been ready for a long time); but due to its long (longer than my other stories) length, I will be uploading two chapters a day. (Had to let you know so you wouldn't get confused.)
Erk was flying his nearly camouflaged shuttle through deep space. As Erk came to a halt, a Star Destroyer emerged from hyperspace, and Erk boarded his ship there. Erk exited his ship and was greeted by an armada of stormtroopers, and none other than his long-time friend Jayko. Except Jayko, this time, wore a chrome stormtrooper helmet under his hood, and had Mandalorian-Iron stormtrooper armor, with a cape flowing behind his back.
"How'd the mission go?" Jayko asked as he and Erk started walking on from the hangar bay to the bridge.
"It went well, somewhat. I've immensely injured them. One of them is very fallable to the dark side, while the others, I have left close-to-death." Erk said.
"Impressive that you can take on three Jedi by yourself. And what of the dark one you mentioned? Did you make him suffer?" Jayko asked.
"He witnessed his friends' fall shortly after I scourged an eye. He tapped into his dark-side self and nearly beat me. Then their masters saved them." Erk said.
"Well this is most unfortunate. I sense that you will receive another chance to defeat them. But if you don't, I'll have to get involved." Jayko said.
"And if you don't succeed?" Erk asked.
"The master does not tolerate failure. I strive for success, and have rarely lost a fight with any Jedi. If I lose, we will need some reinforcements." Jayko said.
"I know a few people that will do just the trick.' Erk said.
"Patience, my friend. You will get your chance. Just remember: take them on alone once more, to show your skill, then we'll see how we'll advance from there on." Jayko said.
"Everything is going as the master planned." Erk finished.
