I reached the elevator and searched for any button to lead to the command center, where Lords Sidious and Vader oversee the construction of the Death Star. I hit a button and the elevator started to ascend as Rooda and Rakine entered and the door closed behind them. I felt the presence of the two Sith Lords grow stronger the more we went up. I'm sure they can feel us too.

"They know we're here," Rakine said with his eyes closed and rubbing his temples. "Stormtroopers are gathering at the elevator shaft, they're waiting for us."

"It's a trap," Rooda looked to me.

I felt the stormtroopers all load their weapons and cock them, Lord Vader walking to the elevator. Rakine and Rooda ignited their lightsabers and I, with my darksaber. The elevator door opened and immediately we are pelted with blaster bolts. Rakine and I deflect the shots and Rooda backs against the wall of the elevator. Rakine and I start to kill off the stormtroopers and Lord Vader ignites his lightsaber, a red blade pointing out at us. In a deep, mechanical voice, he speaks to us.

"You are either very brave or very foolish." He coughs and his helmeted head turns to Rakine. "Rakine Cerivian, the rebel." He held a hand out at Rakine and he started choking, and he threw Rakine into the back wall by Rooda. Rakine struggles to get back up and Vader simply picks him up with the Force and throws him down to the floor multiple times, before Rakine groans weakly and stops trying. Vader knocked me aside and punched Rooda in her masked face, smashing the spider's skull in a million little bony pieces, and sending Rooda to the floor.

"Weak, both of you," He scoffs at their bodies on the floor.

"Rakine!" I call out. "Rooda!"

He turns to me and Force throws me into the command center. I hit the floor and my darksaber falls from my hand. As he prepares a finishing blow, I yank the hood off my head and my antler-sabers stop his blade from killing me. I Force push him away and I stand up, Force pulling my darksaber to me. I walk over to Lord Vader, neglecting the other Force-strong being behind me, and large blasts of Force lightning hit me in the back and shoulders, I sink to the ground and watch as more stormtroopers come to drag Rakine and Roo's bodies away. I try to get up and stop the lightning and Vader comes up to me. I Force kick him back and repel the lightning. I Force throw Sidious back and he flips in the air and lands on his feet. Vader comes to me and I chance him with both our blades grinding against each other.

"Foolish animal. You are no match for us, no matter how strong you may be."

He Force kicks me into a control panel and I rebound off of it to him and our blades smack each other again. I begin to Force choke him with my left arm but as he backs away slowly and swings his darksaber at me. When I dodge the blade, cutting off my Force choke, I hold my body up with my arms and land on my legs again in a backward flip. Sidious pulls out two blades and I ready myself for the attackers. I roundhouse kick my leg to Sidious, kicking one blade out of his grasp, and with the other, he hits my leg, the side of my leg burning. I back away and Force pull his lightsaber to me. I turn to my side and repel both their blades simultaneously. I swing to Vader, then to Sidious, then Vader again, and when try both try to stab me, I Force jump in the air in a spin and dodge their crossing blades. Sidious holds a hand to me as I cling to the ceiling and Force lightning grips my body and I drop back down on my feet. I watch the lightning surround me and bounce off the metal plating on my stomach. Sidious stops shooting lightning at me and Vader swings his blade from behind me. I repel his blade, still facing Sidious, and Force throw Vader into a wall. I turn to Sidious and he cackles.

"You're strong with the Force. But don't think that will stop the Empire from rising."

He shot more lightning at me and I repel it with my black blade.

"You just don't know when to stop, do you old man?"

I Force throw him across the command center and into the window leading off to space were the Death Star is being built. He jumps back at me with a lightsaber ignited. I hold both my darksaber and his twin saber, ready. Darth Vader gets up from the wall behind me and he comes slowly to me from behind. I turn to my side with both blades pointing at each Sith Lord.

"The Empire will fall." I say to both of them.

"That's where you're wrong."

Lord Vader swung his lightsaber toward my neck and I jerk my body back, ducking under the red blade as it swoops above me. I swing back up and I jump in the air and swinging my legs, kicking both of them back. I Force pull their remaining lightsabers from their grasp and to me, I hold two lightsabers in each hand. I Force shove both of them against a wall and point all blades at them.

"Who are you?" Lord Sidious asked me.

"I am Darth Venison," I smirk. "Sith Lord of the Rebel Alliance."

I almost grow cocky and I throw Sidious' lightsabers on the ground and slice through them with my black blade, destroying them entirely. Vader kicks me back and stands up from the wall and begins to Force choke me. I feel the tight grip around my neck and I throw his lightsaber at him, it severing his left hand. He groans under that metal mask and sinks to his knees, holding his wrist. I look down at his hand and wires stick out of the wrist. Cybernetic.

"You may be able to fight us, Venison," he chuckled. "But can you save your friends?"

I stopped and looked down the hall where Rakine and Rooda were taken. I deactivated my darksaber and Force threw Vader out of my way as I bolted after my friends. I look back as Lord Sidious gets away from the wall and cackles, the two Sith Lords watching me leave.

"If he wishes both to be powerful, and have friends to protect, then he has no chance." Vader shook his head.

"Not likely," Sidious shook his head. "We're both powerful and equally good friends."

I kept running down halls and stairways after the pair of stormtroopers that carry Roo and Rakine to one room. The two are strapped up to a wall and one stormtrooper prepares a large metal instrument. The machine drew nearer and nearer to Rakine's face and he started to scream. It was torturing him. The stormtrooper stopped the machine and started asking him questions.

"Where is the rebel base?" The stormtrooper slapped Rakine across the face.

"Up your ass," Rakine smirks and the stormtrooper punches him in the jaw.

I run in the room to throw my black blade through the stormtrooper's chest and I Force throw the torture machine to the wall and it shatters. I release Rakine and Roo from the wall and I turn to a few stormtroopers open fire on us. I deflect a few shots and I ignite my antler-sabers and jump to the group of stormtroopers. With my darksaber I deflect the stormtroopers' shots and with the violent shakes of my head, my eight crimson blades slash and pierce away at them, their bodies start dropping like flies. Rakine and Roo ready their lightsabers and walk slowly to the door.

"Have you taken care of Vader?"

Vader. He convinced me to save them. But why? Was this a part of his plan? A trap?

"No." I sighed. "But we need to get out of here. We got what information we can. The Death Star is half complete." I look out the window of the room to the large metal half-dome that is the Death Star. "We need to send this back to Yavin 4."

"Wait," Rakine stepped to the window and pulled out of his pocket, a circular drawing, an incomplete sketch of the Death Star. He starts to draw in it what is the construction site of the Death Star, adding all the framework and the metal coating of the large space station. He puts his pen back in his pocket and folds up the paper, putting it in his pocket with the pen. "Now we can go."

I walked out of the torture room and saw through one door, a rack of black Sith robes. I ran in and grabbed three of them, handing two to Rooda and Rakine.

"Put these on quick. The stormtroopers are dumb, they might think we're Sith Lords too."

"You are a Sith Lord, Venison." Rakine raised an eyebrow confused.

"A rebel Sith," I put the robe over my body and stick my arms through the long wrist holes, so wide they can almost hit the floor when I lower my arms. I pull the hood over my head and watch as the others pull the hoods over their heads. I turn to an elevator to take us back to the hangar to the Zant's Nightmare and the doors open, Darth Vader walking toward us.

"You rebels aren't going anywhere. I know that's all three of you so take off your pathetic disguises."

Lord Vader ignited his red blade and Rakine and Rooda backed away. I held my darksaber in my hand and Rakine sighed.

"He's much more powerful than you are."

"I fought him before, on my way to rescue you two."

I turn back to Vader and ignited my black blade. Vader Force charged to me and swung his blade to me. I repel the blade and Force push him a few feet away. I motion Roo and Rakine to go and find another way out to the hangar and they run down the hall behind me. I turn back to Vader and he Force jumps over me, blocking my path to the others. I slowly back away into the elevator as our blades clash against each other. He steps in the elevator after me and the doors close behind him, the elevator starts descending and we keep swinging at each other in the small elevator. The door opens and I backflip out and Vader swings the blade at me, I duck and my antler-saber emitters don't swoop down in time. The emitters roll on the floor and my antler-sabers, that Sorin made for me, are completely disabled. Broken.

"You amuse me Lord Venison."

Lord Vader swung to me again and I repel. He aggressively kicks his boot in my jaw and I fly back in a flip and land on my feet again, the bottom of the black robe covering my body down to the floor. I swing a poorly-timed attack and Vader lifts his red blade through my right wrist. My right hand and darksaber clutter to the ground and I hold my wrist feeling the burning sensation of pain.

"You are defenseless. Now," he pointed his red blade at me, "surrender, or die." I jumped up and Force pulled my darksaber to me with my left hand.

"I don't think so," I glared at his helmeted face.

"Fool."

He swung his red blade at me again and I turn to my side dodging the vertical swing. He swings for my feet and I jump over his blade. I swung my black blade and it grinds against the armor on his leg. He groans weakly and proceeds to walk closer, forcing me to back up. Rooda and Rakine run to the Zant's Nightmare behind me and I Force kick Vader back. I turn to run to the ship and I hear the hum of his lightsaber get nearer and nearer to my left. A spinning red blade slices through my left arm at the shoulder. My severed arm and the entire left sleeve fall to the ground. I collapse to the floor of the ship and Rakine Force pulls the darksaber to him as Rooda starts the ship. The door closes as Vader slowly walks closer. The Nightmare rises from the floor and Rooda flies it out of the Star Destroyer, away from the Empire. Rakine drags me against a wall and Rooda stands up from the pilot seat, Rakine taking her spot.

"Take us to Polis Massa. Now!"

Rooda ran to my body and tightly hugged it.

"Everything's going to be okay."

I nod and begin to pass out, the Force trying to keep me awake. The stinging pain in my wrist and shoulder are too much to handle and I black out on the floor, Rooda's cries for me to stay with her fading.
