Chapter VII: Wily Witches.
True Knowledge Exists In Knowing That You Know Nothing.
Planets under siege! The Separatists continue their march across the galaxy, fueling the flames of war. The Jedi are stretched across the galaxy to stop them…. Then an all-Jedi strike force is assembled for a secret mission to infiltrate a Skakoan Techno Union base that is supporting the Separatists.
Among those selected for the mission is Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Naruto Uzumaki, who find themselves teamed with several legendary Jedi Masters. Surrounded by so many powerful individuals, the two Jedi feel there is little they can bring to the mission. But when the base turns out to be a trap designed to kill Jedi, they find themselves fighting for the survival of the team! Jedi powers, Jedi sacrifices, and another surprising confrontation….
Coruscant, Training Room.
In the dueling room, Naruto stood in front of Barriss, both holding training lightsabers. They turned them on and dashed at each other and attacked, blocked, and parried each other's attack before Naruto jumped from a swipe at his feet. He then used the Force to push her back before tossing his saber having her block it with hers.
Calling it back, he dodged a swipe from Barriss who jumped at him. "Good Barriss… Your timing's gotten better."
"Thanks." She said before they turned their sabers off and walked out to the saloon.
There they saw two female humanoid aliens with red and green skin, and blue eyes wearing white and tan robes with hair-like tendrils. They both have a blue tattoo that adorned their foreheads.
This is Tiplee and Tiplar sisters, and Jedi Masters.
"Master Tiplee, Master Tiplar!" Barriss greeted as they sat down.
BD jumped down onto the table, beeped, and scanned the two.
"You must be Naruto Uzumaki," Tiplee said as Naruto nodded.
"I am Master Tiplee."
"Why don't you tell me about yourself?" She asked as Naruto explained to her about himself, his world, and the missions he's done lately before asking the two aliens about themselves.
"Well, we're Mikkians," Tiplar said before continuing. "Our race is from the Expansion Region planet Mikkia. Our race places kinship and integrity above all. With how honest we are, we come across as blunt or even rude to other sentients. We also value discipline and honor over victory or physical might."
Tiplee then started after her sister. "We have different religious traditions, but all believe that the Force plays a central role in all of them. In Mikkian society, our head-tendrils have important cultural significance, and as such tendril-reading is used by Mikkian mystics to predict our future."
They then spent the rest of the time conversing with each other and eating.
The Next Day, Oola's Bar.
Naruto with Aayla walked into Oola's bar where they saw the Twi'lek at the bar with no one inside due to closing.
"Hey, Naruto, I do have some things for you."
"OK, what are they?"
"A couple are just rumors we heard of some patrons here. But one is on a ship that can knock out power to anything, one is the Separatists may be planning to take over Christophsis for the resources. And the final one is that Cham sent a message that he saw Separatists out near the edge of his system." Oola explained as Naruto dropped a bag of credits on the bar.
"Thank you-!" Naruto stopped as one of the dancers pulled him over to the group to talk.
"They really like him."
Aayla blinked as she looked to Oola who started cleaning a glass before feeling the sadness she was putting out. She then remembered times of coming here that she could feel the love coming off her fellow alien towards Naruto that made her start thinking about times where she felt that. Of course, she didn't feel anything from the dancers outside of lust but she feels that from women from time to time when they first see Naruto.
A Few Days Later, Republic Navy.
"Congratulations Thrawn," Naruto said to the newly promoted Admiral.
"Thank you, Naruto. I believe I've been assigned to your ship as well."
Naruto blinked at that before shrugging. "OK, I guess I'll see you then."
He then walked out of the building and towards
The Next Day; 931st Legion, Crimson Kyūbi's.
A shirtless Naruto was in the large training area of his Star Destroyer showing a group of new clones who just had white armor moves from his home martial arts styles.
"OK, that'll be enough for today. Now, most if not all of you may be wondering why I only use one color for my group." Naruto said as some of the clones muttered. "That's because there are no ranks for me! Here we're family, brothers and there are no ranks for families. Now, there will be two who you'll give your reports to, and that's Alpha and Fordo." He said gesturing to the two beside him.
"Now if there are no questions, let's get to know one another with any names you give to each other or what name you want!"
A Week Later Alderaan.
In a hotel room, a nude and sweaty Aayla fell onto Naruto after spending several hours having sex. "No idea… Why Council… (Moan!) forbade this~"
"They're idiots," Naruto said before flipping them over to continue and felt Aayla's legs wrap around his waist. "I don't think we're leaving this room for the rest of the time we're here… You're insatiable."
"Says the guy who's not tired after all that we did-(Moan!)"
Two Weeks Later; Coruscant, Jedi Temple. (1.)
Aayla and Mace are on a platform watching the sky before seeing two Delta-7's fly to them. "There! I see them! They're approaching fast!" Aayla said before they both got out of the way as the Delta-7's crashed landed with RC as the Astromech droid in the navigator.
The hatch opened revealing Naruto who had cuts that were healing holding a vial. "I got… The cure!" He said as BD looked over his shoulder.
Later, the three with a group of Jedi looked at a hologram memorial to three Jedi.
"Who were they?"
Naruto looked back to Anakin before he turned back. "Legends." He then pointed to the one on their far left holding a saber that was turned on. "Master Knol Vennari… The Bothans called her the 'Fire Eater'…"
Knoll's a short female humanoid alien covered in fur she has tapered pointed ears and a beard. She's wearing a black tunic and pants.
Naruto then pointed to the next person man wearing a cloak with the hood up also holding a saber in both hands.
"Jon Antilles… Though even we don't know if that's his real name… A student of the Dark Woman, who years ago infiltrated the Bounty Hunters Guild and brought many murderers to justice… He was believed to be dead many times before but this time, I don't think he's coming back."
Naruto then turned to the next hologram, also a man with shoulder-length hair and mustache holding a baby.
"Nico Diath. Part of the Diath Clan that has produced a great number of Jedi Masters. He roamed the Outer Rim freeing more than one hundred thousand slaves. The Hutts hated him… There's Fay as well… We tracked down the source of the Confederacy's chemical weapon… Took me to Queyta where the other Jed was already waiting. Some had followed their own trail to that desolate world… Others followed the Living Force."
(Flashback.)
Queyta.
Naruto and Obi-Wan walked to the group and saw a near-human female alien with pale skin, long blonde hair, pointed ears, and was wearing white robes.
"Naruto Uzumaki, Master Kenobi," Nico said arms crossed over his chest.
Naruto glanced at the rocky terrain with lava rivers before Knol spoke. "Finally. You Coruscant Jedi take your time, don't you?"
"Sheath your fangs, Master Ven'nari. Naruto and Obi-Wan have faced many trials recently. Are you ill?" Fay asked as BD had jumped down to scan the terrain, a plant, and the Jedi.
"No, the majority of the gas that was used is gone from my system… I have a rapid healing ability." Naruto said as BD jumped back on him and beeped.
"I'm still feeling the effects of the gas," Obi-Wan said as he glanced at Naruto. "I'm not really sure we're needed on this mission."
Fay then walked over and patted Naruto on the head. "You two are the only ones with firsthand experience with this new weapon. Your insight will be invaluable." She said as BD popped his head over Naruto's shoulder.
"(Beep!)"
"As will you little droid." Fay finished patting BD on the head.
"Let's get this over with," Knol said, walking past them. "I'm needed elsewhere, and the chemical factory is already on the move."
"It's mobile?" Naruto asked as they looked at a large building across from them on a lake of lava.
"More or less. It's riding the lava flow." Jon said as Obi-Wan used binoculars to look at the building.
"I see no droids."
"We should act as if there is," Naruto said before Jon spoke.
"So, what are we waiting for?"
"Antilles, Master Diath is in charge here. You weren't even assigned to this mission, drifter." Knol said to the cloaked Jedi.
"I go where I am needed."
"Enough!" Nico said, getting the two's attention. "We've detected only a handful of life signatures. We suspect it's automated or run by a skeleton crew. Our only concern is retrieving a sample of the antidote. Regardless of the risk. If we fail, the clone army is doomed."
"Then follow me," Jon said before jumping down the cliff having the others follow.
"So much for teamwork," Knol said as they jumped on rocks until getting to the ground where they saw a staircase leading to a tunnel to the building.
"Everyone land safely? Let's find a way in." Jon said as Knol looked at the staircase. "This looks like it leads downward."
They all then walked inside and looked at the wires and pipes covering the walls "Master Knol was correct… There are no battle droids." Nico said as BD looked over Naruto's shoulder and had his light come on.
"No path is completely safe," Jon said before Knol pointed to a man at the end of the hall.
He's wearing a pressure suit.
"And the base is manned. But this shouldn't be a problem." She said turning on her lightsaber.
"An attack would be unwise. The sentry is a Skakoan, wearing pressurized armor." Jon said, putting his hand on Knol's shoulder. "They're methane breathers. If you breach his suit, he may explode violently."
"Who uses combustion workers?" She asked turning her lightsaber off. "It doesn't make any sense…"
"We'll just avoid them," Nico said, bringing his hands together in front of him.
"Master Diath!" Obi-Wan said as he and Naruto were at a computer. "We've accessed the installation's floor plans. A synthesis lab is nearby. We should be able to find the samples we need there…"
They then walked down the hall avoiding the few men there and came into a lab. "No!"
And saw both Ventress and Durge inside with Ventress holding a vial. "I've secured the antidote. Let's scuttle the lab before the Republic's Dogs can track us down." Ventress said before Naruto spoke.
"Too late Darksider!"
"Not quite. Our spies knew you were coming, false Jedi… We're fully prepared to kill you all." Ventress leaped at them as Naruto got in front and blocked her strike before bringing his shoto up and spun it to block Durge's shots from his pistol.
Durge then pulled a rocket launcher and aimed it at a group of Sakoan's. "Everyone get back!" Knol yelled as Durge shot the group.
BOOM!
And had them explode in a large explosion. All of them were sent back before the fire started dying down as Naruto noticed Knol in the middle of the fire as it died with burn spots on her body and clothes. "Master Knol!" Naruto jumped over and took a stim from BD before stabbing her in the shoulder. Only to look down when she didn't move. "Damn it!"
"The facility is sinking!" Fay yelled seeing lava start to come through the floor.
"There she goes!" Obi-Wan yelled seeing Ventress running on a pipe. "Get her, if she falls, the antidote will be lost!"
Jon and Obi-Wan jumped up on the pipe surrounding her as she turned on her saber and cut the pip in front of her where Obi-Wan was standing. "Your whole order couldn't destroy me…"
"We won't need to," Jon said holding his saber up. "The dark side has already destroyed you." He then attacked having her block it. "I'm here to release you."
"You're all so arrogant…"
Durge then flew over to them having lava fly up. "And overconfident!" He then kicked Jon over the pipe "But you can't fly."
"The ceiling's going to collapse!" Naruto yelled as the ceiling started falling to them.
Nico from his platform looked up. "We need to g-!" He stopped as lava hit him forcing him into the large pool that had formed.
"Master Diath!"
"Go!" He yelled just as he hit the lava.
"Obi-Wan! Naruto!" Jon yelled as he held Durge from his back. "Don't let that woman escape!"
The three Jedi ran just as Durge grabbed Jon, turned, and pushed him into a pool of lava. "Take a deep breath Jedi!"
"Same to you!" Naruto yelled using the Force to push the bounty hunter only for him to fly to the other side of the building before the ceiling caved, separating the two.
Naruto turned to see Fay using the Force to stab Ventress with metal shrapnel and Obi-Wan picking up the vial with the antidote. He quickly turned and held back an explosion before pushing Fay away from Ventress who had gotten her bearings before pulling her to him then clashed blades. After blocking her strikes several times Naruto used the Force to push her away into several walls before the trio ran out to see a gunship.
(Flashback End.)
"And that's it." Naruto finished as Fay had joined in before Mace looked to Naruto.
"We've got something to tell you Naruto."
"We?"
"The Council. We've decided you're getting a Padawan."
"… What?" Naruto asked, raising an eyebrow. "I didn't ask for one."
"We know, but we're confident that you can handle this," Mace said as Zule Xiss walked up with a glove over her left hand covering up her mechanical one. (2.)
Naruto stared at her, remembering Zule is an abrasive Padawan, quick to anger and often demeaning to others if remembering what she said about Alpha was anything to go by. And that her attitude problems led her to be passed from Master to Master until she was placed under the instruction of Glaive.
"Yoda said you'll be the one to bring her full potential out."
"I don't know about that. Sounds like he's hitting the death sticks but I'll give it my all. I guess first things first Zule, we'll meet my legion of clones." Naruto said rubbing his Padawan's hair getting a tick mark from her.
"I'm not a damn kid!"
"Then stop acting like one!" Naruto yelled as she huffed but followed after him as BD was looking back at her.
A Week Later, Dathomir. (3.)
Naruto was floating down from an ejector seat onto the planet Dathomir. The Council tasked him with checking out a den mother of Nightsisters called Zalem who's been meddling with ancient technology and that destroyed a planet called Ova.
He cut himself out and landed before putting both his saber and shoto in his pocket as he heard footsteps. Before turning to his left. "Hello, Ladies." He said to the group of female Dathomirians with pale skin who were wearing headdresses and leotards with large busts.
"He'll make a good replacement for the one we fed to the Artery Worms." The leader said hands on her hips.
"Or we could put him out to stud." A tall muscular one said crossing her arms under her bust.
"No, this loser's chain-gang material. We'll use him up on the temple ruins. Six months at most…"
Naruto didn't know if not being good enough for sex was an insult or not as he was handcuffed and pulled to a pyramid out of the woods.
Coruscant.
Mace and Saesee were sparing and talking about Naruto's newest mission.
"I don't know… I think Quinlan would have been a better choice." Saesee said as he parried an attack.
"He's infiltrating Dooku's group," Mace said before he blocked an attack. "We just have to trust Naruto can handle this.
Dathomir.
Naruto and other male aliens and humans pushed stuff out of a sphinx before hearing a voice. "Move, you lazy reprobates! Work harder and you will be given more sleep time and sustenance!" The leader from before yelled holding a trident and whip.
Naruto looked at the alien in front of him and started to walk to him.
He's a white-skinned, hairless humanoid who looked like an animated skeleton. His facial features included sharp downward angles, large triangular eye sockets, and sloped-up brows that met together in the middle, lending him an appearance of permanent anguish.
'A Given… They have exoskeletons that resist the vacuum of space and are skilled mathematicians. A lot of humans find them repulsive. He'll be the one I'll need to know.' Naruto thought before stopping by him. "How are you doing?"
"Why are you speaking to me?"
"Just want to be friends, we're all slaves, right? I'm Naruto."
"Yag Shushin, a native of the planet Yag'Dhul and-!"
Crack!
"AAGH!"
Naruto screamed as he was whipped on the shoulder. "It's not appropriate for malelings to converse amongst themselves. You must appreciate that you're a lesser species you'll have to be seasoned. I hope we have an understanding. You won't disappoint me again, will you?"
"Burn in hell witch!"
The leader then pulled her trident and had red energy blades come out on it before an earthquake hit. Naruto saw Yag get trapped under rubble before running to help him out. "You OK?"
"Yes, my exoskeleton's stronger than human bones." He replied as two men carried another female in red robes on a throne who told them not to fear the quake but to fear her more.
"Zalem! I'll tell you later." Yag said as they got back to work until night came where all of them were put in a laser cage.
As Naruto sat, a hunchback deformed Dathomirian female wearing a cloak came to him with a bowl. "Yeah?"
"Heal you, heal you!"
"I'm alright, thank you." He said before she left.
Yag explained that she was Ros Lai, Zalem's daughter they call the Rancor due to her ugliness and that Zalem ignores her. Naruto watched Ros Lai be attacked by her fellow 'sisters' who lifted a pot of boiling liquid with the Force and hit her. Ros Lai just ran off as the men talked about how sometimes the Dathomirians would pick men out to have sex with to breed before being killed.
Later that night, another group of Dathomirian slavers came up intent on stealing the men for themselves, knocking Ros Lai out as the light revealed one was riding a large animal.
It's a large reptilian-like creature standing around 16', with long arms, immense jaws, and an armored hide.
This is a Rancor.
The female riding it wrapped Naruto in a rope before a ship came out of the ground and shot it. The group that caught Naruto walked out and shot the rival group before turning the fence back on.
Morning.
As Naruto and the others worked, a large worm creature with teeth popped out of the ground and ate one of the men. "Shit! We're all chained together at the legs, that thing will eat us all!" Naruto yelled at another man, Yag, and he was pulled in before he turned his saber on and stabbed the worm having the three be vomited out as the worm died.
"No one's killed a Great Worm before!" The leader yelled, running over as Naruto pointed to a pick as he hid his saber. "Used the pick. The flesh is more vulnerable inside."
The leader took Naruto and Yag to Zalem who was in the area before explaining what happened.
"Perhaps you should be one of my… Personal bodyguards… Naruto?"
"Uh…"
"You missed your chance. Instead, I will make you and your fellow slave lizard keepers. It's dangerous work, the Kwi object to their limbs being severed. But no doubt the vanquisher of the Great Worm will deal with them."
'Promotion, huh? Could help with my mission…' Naruto thought before another female pulled Ros Lai over to punish her for not guarding the men and put a worm in a drink that'll cause pain for 24 hours.
Coruscant.
Mace and Saesee were in a taxi flying over the city, still talking about Naruto's mission. "Let's go over what we know about Dathomir… The blue lizard people, 'The Kwi' appear to be degenerate descendants of the Kwa an elder species who traveled the universe through 'Infinity Gates'." Mace said as Saesee nodded.
"That much seems certain from what we learned on Ova."
"And their Star Temples were designed to protect the integrity of the gates… Keeping out intruders for all time. Yet the witches found a way to open a gate on Dathomir before a fail-safe device was activated…" Mace said leaning forward.
"You realize if they try again, Dathomir could be submersed in space, sucking in all neighboring celestial bodies?"
"They're castaways with nothing to lose. I fear they will. Unless Naruto finds a way to stop them." Mace said, bringing a hand to his chin.
"Then may the Force be with him."
"May the Force be with us all."
Dathomir.
Naruto and Yag were putting Velociraptor-like lizards into a pen with a screen on one end. "What's going on behind the screen?"
"You really want to know? Jedi?"
Naruto turned to Yag at that, having him explain they're cutting the lizard's paws off to use for the temple machines. Naruto sighed before explaining he was really sent to stop Zalem and got Yag to help him out after he finished.
Naruto saw a man getting ready to cut a paw off a lizard before stabbing him with his saber and killing the others that attacked before freeing the lizards with all but one leaving who raised his hand to Naruto. Blinking, Naruto touched his hand and got a vision of the Kwa building the pyramid and used it as a stellar gateway. And when they started dying out, they sealed everything up deep underground with traps.
"And they bred the worms to protect the place… Great now that I killed one I gotta take its place." Naruto said as the lizard ran off.
He then saw Ros Lai spying on him before giving chase and fell into a pit. "Sorry Jedi, I can't have you ruin my plans." She said in perfect English before running off as giant rats attacked Naruto.
Naruto killed them before jumping up and saw Ros Lai at the bottom of the hill before she changed. She grew to 5'7" and gained a voluptuous frame with large breasts, wide hips, and gained long curly red hair, and red eyes. (4.)
Naruto then saw a ghost of a Caucasian human male in robes come up in front of her "You look very well, my daughter. But always remember, hiding who you are from the sisterhood or your mother will destroy you."
"As she destroyed you, father. She took you because the Force was strong in you. Then disposed of you after you'd served your purpose. I will crush her, father. I promise you she will pay. And my sisters too."
"Well, well… "The Rancor" was just an act!" Naruto said, making himself known.
"Naruto!"
"OK, how does this sound? We both want to stop Zalem, why not help each other?"
"You don't understand witches, Jedi. I have no intention of stopping her. She will open the Star Chamber for me." Ros said, looking away from Naruto before turning to him. "Then I shall slay her, take over the sisterhood, and use the Infinity Gates to rule the stars."
"Nice plan Ros. But I need to stop ya at 'the using the gates' part." Naruto said as she nodded.
"I know, you have that dreary ethics of a Jedi knight. Which is why I'm going to kill you…" Naruto started choking as Ros held her hand up and used the Force to choke him. "I cannot permit you to live, Naruto. I know you would try and stop me from entering the Star Chamber and destroying Zalem."
"Ros Lai...? What's happened to you? You're beautiful?"
Looking back, Ros saw three of her 'sisters'. "Vonya!" Ros then turned to Naruto who was breathing on his knees. "We'll finish this later, Jedi"
"(Groan!)"
"So, Vonya, and my sisters. As you can see, I am no longer 'The Rancor' as you mockingly called me."
"We are witness to a miracle! All praises to Zalem's daughter. She is one of us now… We rejoice to see you cured of your affliction sister. You can take your place amongst us now as a true Dathomir Witch."
"I don't need your hollow compliments, Vonya. They will not spare you from my anger." Ros said as the one behind her spoke up wearing a loincloth and headdress.
"Ros, I know we hurt you. But it was just a game. It didn't mean anything."
"To call me a monster? To make me the laughing stock of the tribe?"
"Please forgive us, Ros."
"I can't do that, Leela. You should know…" Ros said as Leela fell to the ground, blood coming out her eyes and mouth. "Witches never forgive. Well, Yani, won't you come forward and embrace me? I remember you are weak in the bones." Ros said to another female who had dreadlocks before she ran off.
"Noooo! Leave me alone!"
"That's enough Ros," Vonya said raising her hand.
"It's enough when I say it's enough Vonya. Stand aside."
"I'm impressed with your magical disguise. However, all that is merely fledgling stuff… You are still a novice to me." Vonya said before she was pushed back with the Force having her hood fall revealing purple hair.
"'Still a novice'?" Ros said as Vonya stared at her.
"Yes, Ros…" She said raising her hands and having debris surround them. "Still a novice!"
'Crazy witches! I should let them kill each other but Ros can still be a great ally.' Naruto thought before jumping over and cut any boulders that got near Ros.
"So Naruto! You are a Jedi?" Vonya said, pulling up a dagger with a red energy blade. "I should have known… Very well, let's see how you compare with a Witch of Dathomir!" She then attacked Naruto with his blade. "It's time I taught you your final lesson!"
Naruto just cut through her blade breaking it before smiling. "You were saying?"
Vonya then disappeared right before their eyes "Later, both of you!"
"Ran away, didn't you, Vonya? I look forward to our next encounter. I'll bring the dark side… You bring your worthless carcass…" Rs said as Naruto turned his saber off.
"Ros, that offer still stands, let's work together to stop your mother. She's tampering with something she doesn't understand…"
"And so are you Jedi. Stay out of my sight or I'll regret sparring your life. I will never betray my mother to you. That pleasure is all mine. After all… Blood is thicker than water. And I want to see her bleed." She said before walking away.
"Your family and violent redheads."
"What are you talking about?" Naruto asked only to get a snort in response. "(Sigh) I better see if I can find Yag… I think he said he would try to get one of the ships."
Later.
Later in the evening, Naruto was at a ruin before touching a wall and had electricity hit him for a moment. 'It's like the Kwa are speaking to me… Trying to tell me something.' Naruto thought before he was surrounded by Nightsisters. "OK, I know when I'm beaten," Naruto said before they took him to a tent with Zalem where they tied him up and injected him with a liquid that had an artery worm.
Yag.
Yag had knocked out the guards and walked into a spaceship where he saw dead Nightsisters before he heard a female voice. "Ah, Yag. I've been waiting for you."
He turned to the cockpit and saw Ros Lai now wearing a purple hooded cape with a purple leotard that had a V cut showing her cleavage, red vambraces, and red thigh-high heeled boots.
"Who are you?"
"Ros Lai… 'The Rancor'… Don't you remember? You know how to pilot this ship so listen carefully to me. I need your help."
"Why would I help one of my jailers? That does not seem rational." Yag said as she stood up and hit a button having them hear screams as the engine burned more guards.
"Because more guards are coming to deal with us both and I can rescue your friend Naruto, who I sense is with my mother… That's rational!"
Naruto.
Naruto groaned before seeing Ros walking in and freeing him against her mother's wishes before the Nightsisters attacked. Red chakra surrounded Naruto having the worm burrow out of his chest as he and Ros attacked. Suddenly Yag came up in the ship having the two get on via a ladder with Ros going first. Naruto looked down when he noticed her leotard was slightly small on her and didn't hide everything.
They then went back underground as Zelma followed with Vonya and a group of Nightsisters. They dodged several blasts before coming to a wall from the above-ground pyramid and had it open revealing a large crystal ball. "That's the gate!" Ros said as Zelma's ship passed them and went inside. "After them! The wall's closing!"
"What are our odds Yag?" Naruto asked the alien.
"Approximately seven thousand and fifty to one!"
"That's worse gambling than on Tatooine!"
They made it in just to see the other ship facing them and fired at them hitting the cockpit. Yag jumped in front of the two and took the blast head on and fell to the floor. "He took the full force of that attack and saved us," Ros said as Naruto got in the seat and fired, hitting the wing of the ship and had it fall on a platform.
Down below, Vonya stumbled out before she was pulled forward and hit her head on the door of Naruto's ship knocking her out before it opened and she was pulled inside. Naruto and Ros walked out and into the station where they saw Zalem and a dead lizard at a panel that shot a wave of energy out of a cannon. "To Coruscant!"
Zelma then turned to see her daughter holding a dagger at Naruto before stabbing him in the heart. "That is convincing, daughter. You truly are our mother's child. Come… Let us be a family again."
"What kind of family is that murders a father?" Ros asked, holding her dagger up.
"Well… Our family dear... And what's your point?"
"I want justice for him!" Ros yelled, bringing the dagger to her mother.
"Justice…? We don't believe in that justice. You're on Dathomir, you silly girl. You're not one of those just-about-to-be-made-extinct Jedi."
"How about me?" Naruto asked, holding both his blades.
"An illusion spell…. Excellent." Zelma said before her daughter stabbed her in the heart.
"Goodbye, mother," Ros said before Nightsisters surrounded Naruto. "And goodbye, Naruto. I meant what I said about the dark side calling me."
"Gotta admit, Ros, you're impressive," Naruto said before throwing his hands out, throwing the Nightsisters into the wall.
He then blocked a strike from Ros before flipping over her to a three-fingered control and touched it moving his fingers to form three. Suddenly, crystals on the ceiling hit the Nightsisters, knocking them out before he saw Ros dodging several like she knew where they would hit. 'Ros is powerful… She's sensing them in time…' Naruto thought before adding more power to several and hit her to the floor.
"It only stunned me? Why didn't you kill me?"
"I didn't kill the others either," Naruto said before pulling the wave attack back.
He then turned and picked Ros up bridal style and used the Force to carry the others out to the ship. He then put it on autopilot to Coruscant just as the blast destroyed the ball.
Coruscant.
Naruto had just finished giving his report to Mace and Saesee with Ros standing behind him with guards. "I've studied your report, Naruto," Mace said standing by the desk Saesee is sitting at. "We weren't sure you could handle the Witches of Dathomir."
"But one thing puzzles us..." Saesee said before looking at Ros Lai. "Why did you spare them?"
"The others I just didn't want to kill. As I said I believe in the code for the not killing part unless you have to. Ros…" Naruto glanced back to see the Nightsister smirking at him. "She's a little like me. And somewhere deep within her, I sense the light side of the Force… The Force within us all." Naruto finished looking back.
To Be Continued.
