STAR WARS

KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC III

EPISODE I

SHADOWS OF THE FORCE

 

After the defeat of DARTH TRAYA by the hands of the JEDI EXILE, she left everyone, including her love Atton Rand, and took off with the EBON HAWK, in search of REVAN.

 

THE LOST JEDI, who consisted of Atton Rand, Mira, Bao-Dur and Visas rebuilt the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. The Disciple and the Handmaiden, now known as Mical and Brianna have also rebuilt the Jedi Academies on Dantooine, and on Telos. BASTILA SHAN presented herself to the Lost Jedi, and now they are all part of the High Jedi Council on CORUSCANT.

 

One more year has passed, and Revan and the Jedi Exile are nowhere to be found. Now, a PADAWAN is on the verge to be knighted, and he is prophetised to have a great destiny. Will he and many other companions he will gather find Revan and the Jedi Exile before it is too late?

 

The sound of lightsaber clashes and twirls echoed through my head. Dark Blue , Jade, Blue and Yellow sabers clashed equally with a Red one, although I could not see anything, only the lights. Suddenly, the dark blue lightsaber turned off, and someone yelled.

 

Then, I woke up.

 

“Uhg…,” I muttered, “Another dream. These are getting more often. Well, I should continue however.”

 

Coruscant was not a nice city to live, but it was also the home of the Jedi Temple, and that was nice. I got out of my bed, and put my robes on. I looked around, looking for my most valuable possession, not counting The Force, of course. I looked further and found it on my workbench. There it was, my Lightsaber. I was practising my lightsaber skills in the art of Form IV, the Ataru, under my Master, Ky’Dor, so the hilt was perfect. I grabbed it, and hooked it to my belt.

 

It was going to be a long day.

Chapter I : A Long Day Assignment

 

I got out of my room, and to another day. The Jedi Temple surely was a great thing to witness. The Council had told me I was going to get an assignment, but it was not until later. I decided to go to the Archives, to hone my skills in the Force. As I reached the entrance, High Council Member and Jedi Historian, Jedi Master Mical engaged me.

 

“Greetings, Padawan Kenobi. Are you looking for something?” He asked me, a smile on his face. It were good times.

 

“Well, I was looking for archives which could be useful with my skills, but I changed my mind. I’d like to know more about recent History,” I told him.

 

“Very well, go to that hall, turn right into a corridor. There’s another Padawan there, learning the same thing. I hope you find what you want, and may the Force be with you,” He smiled again.

 

I nodded to the Master and wandered off. I followed his directions, and there she was, Padawan Cameron Sunrider. She was sitting in a table, reading. She was very beautiful, and her green eyes combined with her robe. I walked to her and sat beside her.

 

“Greetings. You are studying history as well?” I asked.

 

“Oh, hi Jason. Yes, like to join up?” She asked me. I smiled and easily accepted.

 

Many things I got to know about how the Mandalorian Wars ended, and their battles as well. The Jedi Civil War which followed, in which Revan redeemed himself by defeating Malak. And finally the Exile defeating Nihilus aboard the Ravager over Telos, Sion at the Trayus Academy and then Traya at the Trayus Core.

 

“Fascinating. Don’t you think?” She asked me. I answered with a clumsy smile, nodding.

 

Suddenly, I felt something.

 

“Well, I have to go, the Masters will assign me for a mission. Goodbye,” I told her, waving my hand, on my way to the Council Chambers. I ran my way to it, passing by the stairs, and then finally reaching. I took a deep breath and the door opened. Inside were Masters Mical, Atton Rand, Visas Marr, Brianna Kae, Mira, Bao-Dur and Ky’Dor, all clothed in Jedi Robes, those of the Masters. Master Bao-Dur was also in one, and I had heard he had a “special” replacement arm a year ago, different. Anyways, I bowed, in a sign of respect.

 

“Greetings Padawan Kenobi,” Master Rand started.

 

“Greetings Masters,” I continued.

 

“We have called you here for an assignment. You, and another Padawan will travel to the lower cities of Coruscant. You must do everything in your reach to get to it. We need a holocron, which contains most sensitive information about…Revan,” Master Shan told me. I had heard she and Revan where linked somehow, but I never knew how.

 

“So, what is this other Padawan?” I asked. The doors behind me opened and from outside came Cameron Sunrider.

 

“We have downloaded the information to your datapads. Be careful, and May The Force Be With You,” Master Kae told us. We bowed and made our way outside.

 

“So, you and me, eh? Sounds nice,” I smiled. She giggled, “Well, let’s see this datapad. It says here we are also going to be accompanied by a droid who goes by the name of T3-M4. We are to pick him up at the Droid Maintenance Room.”

 

They walked for some minutes until they finally reached the room. The doors opened and it looked like more of a factory than a maintenance room. A bright blue and white utility droid with a blue visor, ran at us.

 

“Hey there little buddy. I’m guessing you’re T3-M4?” I asked. It beeped and whistled loud in a affirmation tone. A Zabrak in Engineering suit appeared behind it.

 

“Greetings. I’m Bao-Dur’s cousin, Rron-Dur,” He said, bowing. We did the same, “I have modified him carefully with many more techs, and have made him a astromech and utility droid combined. I like to call it a “Expert Droid”. Now good luck, and may the Force be with you.”

 

We then made our way out of the Temple and into the hangar, with T3 in the middle of us.

 

“You seem a likeable sort, I’m glad to have you around,” Cameron told him, patting him on the head. T3 then beeped of happiness. We got a speeder and hopped on it. It would be a long ride down the cities.

 

“Hmm, a lot of Tarisian Style Cantinas. Seems alright, since Taris was destroyed,” Jason told his companions, noticing a particular cantina, “Oh, how about this one? The Manly Mynock.”

 

T3 beeped in affirmation and Cameron nodded. We both got their hoods up, parked the speeder and got into the cantina. Many races such as Nikto, Weequays and Chisses where there. I walked up to the bartender.

 

“Uhm, excuse me, I’m looking to…join some business. If you know what I mean.” I whispered to the bartender, who appeared to be a Chiss.

 

“Uh, what, what are you talking about, I know nothing about what you are talking.” He told me, confused. I sighed, and put my hand on my pocket. I reached to the end and got out 20 credits.

 

“Will this suffice?”

 

“Yes,” He said, sneakily putting the credits in his pocket, “About 4 quarters behind this bar and in three hours. Good luck.”

 

“Oh and, we didn’t meet with each other,” I said, waving my hand and using the infamous Jedi Mind Trick.

 

“We never met with each other and are complete strangers to me.” The bartender said, forced. I smirked and turned around.

 

“Let’s go,” I motioned with my hand before we saw guts flying in the air. A fight had just broke, “Oh, Sith spit!”

 

Almost everyone started to shoot everywhere, and the innocent civilians and workers started to take cover.

 

“I take care of the people, you of the assailants,” Cameron said, unhooking her Lightsaber and igniting it with a purple blade coming out, “Soresu’s my style.”

 

She ran off to protect the rest of the civilians while i grinned and ignited my blue Lightsaber and ran towards them. I blocked many shots, which was quite amazing for a Ataru practitioner, but those whose i didn’t deflect where taken care of by Cameron. T3 also provided covering fire, but didn’t to as much impact as when i got sick of deflecting, twirled my saber, and slashed the ground, letting out a shock wave, sending everyone in my front to the floor below, knocking them out. The Coruscant Security Force didn’t take much time to get there, but at that time, we had already fled to the meeting place, and parked the speeder.

 

“Well, I’m guessing we just stay put and wait for the meeting,” I told my companions.

 

Minutes and hours had passed, and still nothing when suddenly, lot of species started to gather in front of them. It looked like a gang war, in which the prize was the holocron.

 

I sighed, “ I have a bad feeling about this.”

 

All of them took out their blasters and started shooting at each other. Eventually, the ones in red won, and noticed me, Cameron and T3.

 

“You will regret coming here, Jedi’s!” A Nikto said as they raised their blasters to us. Their guns shot fast, and were very powerful as they quickly destroyed the speeder, but they where no match for us, whose Lightsaber's quickly cut down the guns in half. They started screaming and ran off, unfortunately and unnoticed, with the holocron. Me and Cameron quickly came to the aid of one of the dying from the other gang, but it was too late. A card slipped out and T3 took it and analysed it.

 

“I’m guessing that’s some sort of key card,” Cameron said, as she then noticed three swoops, intact, “Jason, look!”

 

I turned my attention around and saw them as well. T3 slid there and sliced the computer panels, making them able for me and Cameron to fly on. Wehopped on them, and T3 turned on his recently installed jets, and flew off as we chased down the gangsters. It was being a long and exhausting chase but they got out of the swoops on the lower cities. We did the same and started looking around. It took some minutes, but we finally found them. We started pursuiting them beside a wall when suddenly, everything blacked out, and we where knocked unconscious.

Thanks DL. Atleat this is getting more posters and readers than good ol' Pottsie. :D No offense Potts.

 

None taken. I'm sure people would rather read a KOTOR III Fic than a Jedi Knight Fic, plus this Fic was released earlier than Jedi Forces. The closest I've ever got to KOTOR III was my Fic, Darkness Rising, which was set in between TSL and KOTOR III, but that is a different story. I'm looking foward to Chapter II all the same.

Yes Saber, i had to blow it, i had to blow the next chapter!

Chapter II : The Tracking Bothans

I woke up in a large room on a bed and standing next to me was Cameron. I got up, and found out someone had taken our Lightsabers, gear…and clothes.

 

“Hey, Cameron, wake up,” I told her, patting her in the shoulder. She woke up quickly.

 

“Well, I’m glad no one knows about this. We’d be the laughing stock of the Jedi Order,” She sighed.

 

“Agreed. Let’s just find a way out of here though, “ I said, before my eyes laid attention on a locker. I walked up there and found some decent clothing. Cameron followed me, and we dressed up. I had a full-body dark green suit while she had an exact suit, except it was brown.

 

“Great, let’s go,” She suggested, as we ran to the door, only to be blocked by a three persons, two male Lethan Twi’leks donned in Heavy Battle Armour, followed by a male Human in the same.

 

“Going…somewhere?” The man asked. I was almost getting my Lightsaber out…until I remembered it was gone.

 

“Who are you people? Why did you take our stuff away?” Cameron asked.

 

“All at it’s time. But for now, follow me. I assure you, we aren’t a threat, Jedi’s. In fact, we are to give a proposition...” He said, before walking off. There was not much to do, so we decided to follow them. A while later, we where in the Main Hall, and there was a Bothan sitting on a chair.

 

“Well, I am so glad you are, for there is much to discuss. I am Rayarn Plo’bre, leader of The Tracking Bothans. You see, we are at war with that gang you were following, they have no name, but we like to call them The Dark Hunters. Their leader, is a crazed Wookie who enjoys hurting and send suffering. He is called…Hanharr. I once heard he was a survivor from when Malachor V blew up,” Rayarn said.

 

“Well, we appreciate you want us to help you, but you didn’t need to take our things,” Cameron observed.

 

“Actually, it was. You need to stay undercover here in the Lower Cities, not going around in your robes sticking your Lightsaber in everybody’s business. We left those suits in there on purpose. Now, my proposition is the following. A bird told me that they are going to sell that holocron of theirs to someone in the Black Market, and also a very sensitive datapad for us. We want you to sneak in their base here on Coruscant, get the Holocron, and the datapad. You will then trade them for these fake ones, and when they know it, they’ll already be buried seven feet under. Do you accept?”

 

“Well, we have to get by all means, so alright, we’ll do it.” I answered.

 

“Capital! Also, I’m afraid you won’t be able to take your Jedi Gear and the droid to the cities. It would get too much attention. Also, because you are doing this for us, you can take any weapon or armour from our armoury. Don’t try and expect to find your initial gear, though,” He said, crossing his fingers, “It’s locked tight. Anyways, the man you found back on your temporary quarters will be your escort,” He said as the man got up from the seat he had taken and gave us the fake datapad and holocron, “For now, I’m going. Good luck, I know you’ll need it.”

 

We bowed and then turned to the man who had taken us there. His hair was shaved and brown, but not completely, and he had a goatee. His eyes where dark green, and he was of tall height and muscular constitution.

 

“Well, hello, peeps around here call me “Pottsie.” Nice to meet you,” He told us, extending his hand. I put on a smile on my face and shaked it in a sign of respect, “So, I guess we should get going to the armoury, eh?”

 

“Indeed. It is also nice to meet you, “Pottsie,” Cameron chuckled. He appeared to be not fond of jokes but he smiled the faintest smile he could. He then waved his hand in a sign for us to follow him, and he led us to another hall, this time bigger. It looked like a common room, and then we turned to the right.

 

“Well, here it is, the armoury,” Pottsie told us. He took out a keycard and sliced it on a console, then put his hand over a window, finalizing by the eye routine check.

 

“Welcome, Pottsie. Have a nice stay,” The console said as the doors slid open.

 

”Well, go inside and take what you think will need. When you’re finished, meet me at the common room,” He told us, as he walked back to the common room. We entered and searched the room with the Force.

 

“Only slowing armours for protection, and vibroblades and blasters for weapons. Oh well,” I said, before crouching to get one blaster pistol , and twirled it around with my finger, in an act of mockery. Cameron laughed and picked up a nearby Vibrosword. I looked around more, and found a belt with some thermal detonators. I took the belt and attached it.

 

“Well, I’m guessing we’re done. Let’s see Pottsie,” I told Cameron. We walked out from the armoury, and into the common room. Most of the members where there, for it was a busy day in the Big City. We walked up to Pottsie, who was talking to another member, before he spotted us.

 

“Well, you’ve already gotten yourselves some equipment, eh? Alright then, let’s get going. We’re only wasting time here,” He said, before he started walking towards the exit.

 

The search, had began.
