Star Wars: The Lost Son

Darth Saaron heard Tanya through the force and gently ended his kiss with Darth Marea. A few tears fell down from his eyes as he felt the group leave and said to Tanya, ::May the force be with you Tanya, I already miss you and... thank you for accepting me into your family, it- it means a lot to me, little sister.::

Tanya felt like crying herself. Leaving her new big brother and friend made her feel lonely. But she still had Dan with her. ::Ya welcome. I always wanted a big brother. But you're the coolest of them all! I hope that... that nothing bad ever happens to you or your friend.::

 

Tanya looked down. ::May the Force be with you too.:: Tears fell from her pretty blue eyes, and she held on to Dan, as close as she could.

CSI went back into his quarter in Arbiter, and looked at his tidy quarter. He really took some time to arrange it neatly. Inside it there are three bubbles, which held a whole black robe, a whole white robe, and a ARC armor. His eye stayed on the black robe for a while, and his expression turned sad. He recalled so many bad memories. The scream in agony, the lightsaber sizzling, the explosion...He could feel the pain, the hatred, the anger. He closed his eyes, and closed the bubble, and shutted those bad memories inside the bubble.

 

CSI exhaled, and picked up a bottom voil in his closet. He sat down on his chair, and began to playing it. When his bow met the string, the strings made a sharp and high noise. CSI frowned, and turned the knobs at the head of the viol. Then he tried again. The sound was better. With a gentle and slow rhythm, he sang:

 

horizon

do you remember

the time of winter

when we were so young

horizon

standing on the edge of time

hanging on to friends of mine

now release me and stand in line

 

we are moving closer to

deceit and all is solitude

so be a part of the new start

'cause he wouldn't go this far as the

 

sun is still burning

the planet's still turning

now we're so old

 

horizon

will you recover

will we discover

see the blood red

the blood red skies

 

you the listener you'll be a witness

you're the witness you'll need an alibi

 

we are moving closer to

deceit and all is solitude

so be a part of the new start

'cause he wouldn't go this far as the sun

 

see the blood read skies

and the dried out seas

no one gives a damn

that's what worries me

witness the woods demise

and the greyish air

people died like flies

forever....

 

by far

 

sinking like a leaking ship

shivering body makes me drown

open up your mind to me

and I'll open up your mind to you

tell...

do tell...

 

horizon

do you remember

the time of winter

when we were so young

horizon

is it still burning

the planet's still turning

now release me and stand in line...

 

see the blood read skies

and the dried out seas

no one gives a damn

that's what worries me

witness the woods demise

and the greyish air

people died like flies

forever....

 

After he finished, the intercom transmitted someone's clapping. "Nice music, CSI!" Vergil's voice.

 

"How can you hear my play?" CSI asked, confusingly.

 

"Looks like you turned on the intercom during your playing. Frankly, that's a nice music."

 

"Heh, thanks." CSI replied.

 

"You're welcome." Then the intercom broke.

Darth Saaron felt how lonely Tanya was and tried to reassure her. ::We will see each other again soon, little sister. Sooner than you might think. For now, be brave, begin to learn the ways of the Force and I will find you as soon as I can. I am staying here so that whoever this is... does not have a chance to harm you. Be strong, listen to my mother, she is very wise and will know what to do. Trust me, now this may feel strange to you, but I am going to 'vanish' from the force so I can evade this... hunter. I can still hear you in the force, but I might feel like a... wisper, so listen close to the force and I will be there.:: He then turned to look at Darth Marea and said "Whoever is hunting us, my apprentice, is getting close. I sense that it might be force sensitive and we should be cautious." He then began to mask his presence in the force and pulled himself and his apprentice into the shadows.

Darth Maera masked her Force signature, as well. "Yes, master. I sense it as well." She fingered her saber hilt, ready at any moment to call it to her hand.

Sarela nodded, then said, "I wanted to ask your permission to accompany your family, to begin to teach your daughter, and to protect you. If you would rather I did not, I understand."

The parents glanced at each other surprised. Then they turned back to Sarela. Zano shook his head. "No, no, no. We do want you to protect our family. And most of all, we appreciate you teaching our daughter the ways of the Force." Madi agreed. "Our little Tanya has always dreamnt of becoming a Jedi. She read stories about them too."

 

Tanya nodded at what Ben said. ::Okay. Be careful.:: After that, Darth Saaron 'vanished' from the Force. The little girl wondered who was trying to hunt Ben. If her new big brother got hurt... she'd be real angry.

Darth Saaron took Darth Marea by the wrist, gently and then began to move through the shadows to a console in the room and looked up a security report. Noting that several patrols of guards had failed to report in, he turned to his apprentice. "Well, my apprentice, it seems someone wants to hunt us. What do you think wiser, catching a shuttle and letting the fool die during a... planned incident, or to remain behind and deal with him personally?" He wispered in a dark voice.

Darth Maera cocked her head to the side, considering. "It's difficult to deal with an assassin when we can't sense where he is. The easier way would be the.... incident, but it's also less precise."

Sarela smiled. "Thank you. I'm glad you feel that way. Your daughter has a lot of potential, she learns very quickly. But we should leave now, I sense that we are not entirely out of danger yet."

Darth Saaron sensed his new little sister's fear and motioned to his apprentice. "Come on, something is going on in the hanger." He used the force to tear away the bulkhead panel that concealed the access tube and once his apprentice was through, sealed it. Once he was in the hanger, he saw a group of his soilders pointing their blasters at his... family. He started to storm over to where the guards were and used a powerful force push which threw them into a nearby wall. He turned to his apprentice, ::Finish them.:: He then slowly walked over to where Tanya was standing and gently picked her up. In her ear, he wispered "I told you I would be back sooner than you would think." He turned to his mother, "Change in plans, we have a new idea how to deal with this... threat."

Tanya was so happy to see Ben! "Big brother!" She wrapped her arms around his neck. "Thank you for saving us! And I always knew you'd come back." She held on to her teddy bear, while Ben carried her.

 

Zano and Madi were also happy to see Darth Saaron again. If it weren't for him... they'd be dead.

Darth Saaron looked at Tanya and smiled, glad to see her again as well. "I told you we would see each other again, little sister. However, it seems me and my apprentice will be joining you because of this... incident." Reluctantly, he put her down on the deck and then told all of them, except Darth Marea "Go on inside, I'll be there shortly." He then turned around and began to stalk over to where the soilders who were now laying down on the deck were. Once he was in front of them, he addressed them, shooting them a glare that would make anyone want to run away from his presence. Before proceeding, he made sure that Tanya was not watching him and had actually gone into the ship, once he was sure she was he turned back to the soldiers in front of him. "You fools, your incopentice knows no bounds. Do you really think they would escape me, if they were walking around the ship, it was because I allowed them to. Your actions have defied me for the last time." He hissed at them darkly and then began to slowly crush their windpipes with the force, allowing them to slowly realize their mistake.

Darth Saaron finally crushed the soldiers with the force and turned to his apprentice. ::Activate security lockdown for all sections of the ship, make sure that the force fields that divide every section engage and then initate self destruct for a 30 second silent countdown, then join me on the ship.:: With that, Darth Saaron turned and boarded the ship, walking up to Tanya, picking her back up again. Through the force he reached out to his mother, ::I don't mean to rush you, but my ship will self-destruct in about 40 seconds if my apprentice is efficent enough. We need to get out of here, once she is aboard.::

Darth Maera swiftly walked to the nearest console and keyed in the security override codes. She then proceeded to carry out her master's instructions, activating the security lockdown and initiating the ship's self-destruct. She took a moment to make sure that the silent countdown had initiated, and then used Force Speed to run as fast as she could to the ship. "Take off! What are you waiting for?" she called, shortly.

Zano nodded. He punched in a few buttons on his controls to start the ship. Madi sat in the co-pliot seat next to Zano. "Ya think we're gonna make it, dear?" Zano turned to his wife and smiled. "Don't worry, hon. We'll get through this."

 

Tanya hugged Ben again. ::I'm so glad ya came back. Dan's happy you came back too. I was getting scared without you.:: She looked into his eyes. Although they were yellow and scary, it didn't matter to her.

[Which ship did you detonate? The Ecllipse or the shuttle or both?]

 

CSI suddenly jumped out of chair, and ran to find Vergil. But it took him sometime to locate Vergil due to the immence size of the ship.

 

"V...Ver...Vergil!" CSI shouted at astonished Vergil.

 

"Whoa, whoa, slow down, calm yourself!" Vergil grabbed a seat for CSI.

 

"Thank you," CSI finally grabbed a breath, "I don't know if Sarela is coming back, but if she is coming back, I sense there are going to be consequences."

 

Vergil narrowed his eyes: "What consequences? Specify, will you?"

 

CSI shrugged: "I don't know...The Dark Side shadowed the future."

 

Vergil put his index finger on his mouth, and thought for a while: "Well, let's be careful, then. And my advice is...your mallet is pretty cumbersome. Why don't you just arm your dual katanas?"

 

CSI raised an eyebrow at Vergil: "You may be right. And I think we should let Arion know about this."

 

Vergil nodded and reached for the Intercom. He took it out, and said: "Arion, Arion, this is Vergil. Do you copy?"

((Both))

 

Darth Saaron looked back into Tanya's eyes and smiled. ::I could sense your fear, especually at the end when those fools who actually considered themselves guards were going to come after you. I could not let that happen to my little sister.:: He walked slowly into what looked like to be a main gathering area and sat down on a confterable chair he found. ::Well, I'm here now and everything is going to be fine.:: He reassured Tanya through the force and then called to his apprentice. ::Care to join us, my apprentice? Good work back there, I'll be sure to reward you later. However, it seems that this young girl has... adopted me as her brother. Strange, I would never thought this would happen. I also should commend you on controling your emotions, instead of them controling you. I'll finish that lesson with you later, once we are underway.::

Arion was trying, without much success, to reconfigure the security system on the Phoenix, when Vergil called. He reached over and hit the comm. "I copy, Vergil. What's the problem? You sound concerned."

::Yes, master. Thank you.:: Darth Maera sat down near her master, and watched him and the little girl, curiously. She was surprised that a child would befriend a Sith Lord, and was not frightened by his appearance. ::The child is very brave,:: she noted to her master, quietly.

::That she is, my apprentice. I must admit, I am a little suprised that she and her family would accept a Sith Lord into it, but she truly has accepted my as her older brother.:: Darth Saaron noted back to his apprentice. He then focused back on Tanya, "You have had a fairly full day, young one. If you need to rest, feel free. I won't be going anywhere for awhile." He told Tanya in a quiet, caring voice. Addressing his apprentice through the force again he told her, ::I think now might be a good time for a update on those Dark Jedi of ours. Be sure to heavily encrypt your transmissions and be sure nobody notices. Tell me, what do you think of Tanya here.::

Darth Maera nodded, once, and slipped out, silently, to the communications station. She sealed her transmission with most of the Sith encryptions she could recall, and laced it with certain Republic "encryptions", as well, that, when decrypted, would reduce the message to gibberish. Only then did she send her order for a status report, before returning to her master. She evaluated Tanya for a while, silently, then said, ::She learns very fast. I would guess she has a lot of potential in the Force, once she receives a little training. She seems..... very affectionate, even, and perhaps especially, towards you. And she seems completely unconcerned, now that you're here, despite the danger we could be in. She's so.... innocent.:: She watched the little girl, a trifle wistfully, then abruptly quashed whatever it was she had been feeling, and looked down at her lap.

[bOTH?! You guys are insane...not to think about lost of expensive money, but also about one thousand of innocent lives!]

 

Vergil hesitated for a while: "Well, we don't know for sure, but CSI said he forsaw a disaster coming."

 

CSI nodded and added: "Well, the Dark Side is clouding everything. But one thing can be true--things just got complicated than they should be."

Tanya looked up at Ben, and smiled. "Yeah. I'm kinda tired anyway. I'll sleep on your lap, 'cause I don't wanna be alone again." The little girl closed her eyes, placed Dan near her, and rested her head on Ben's chest. And with that, Tanya fell asleep.

 

The Cool Field flew past the ships, and into space. Zano smiled, as he looked at the view in front of him. "Just like old times, dear. When we use to be young and reckless, flying so fast." Madi kissed her husband on the cheek and smiled. "Yes. Just like old times." Zano turned to Ben. "Where would you like us to go, milord?"

((Er, CSI, I'm not sure if I'd call Sith troopers and dark Jedi "innocent lives", but the point is noted.))

 

Darth Maera's comlink beeped, quietly, and she left to go receive the dark Jedi's transmission.

 

Sarela paused in the doorway and looked at Darth Saaron with the child asleep in his lap. She smiled a little, to herself, and quietly walked over to sit next to him. She hesitated, unsure how to begin, or what to say, but she wanted to talk to him, try to get to know him better.

 

Darth Maera quickly decrypted the transmission, and returned. ::Master, the dark Jedi have arrived at Coruscant. They're moving into position now.::

As Tanya fell asleep, Darth Saaron rested one of hands on her back, showing her even further that she was not alone. As slowly turned his head towards his mother and then his apprentice, who were both walking towards him, he heard Darth Marea through the force and replied, ::Very good, it won't be long now. Although, I wish we could see the faces on the two Jedi who were with your brother before, it will be priceless.:: After that, he slowly turned his head towards Zano and reached out gently to his mind and sent ::You may fly at your disgression, Zano. Just stay away from any Jedi. Your daughter... seems to have adopted me as her big brother. I'm curious, how do you feel about that?::

 

Finally, Darth Saaron turned slowly again to look at his mother who was now sitting next to him. He smiled at her and looked down at Tanya's sleeping form and then back up at her, willing his eyes to return to their normal bright blue color for as long as he could hold it. ::It seems that Tanya has adopted me as her brother.::
