Snippet #2370179

The Sith stood in front of Marcus, his chest rising and then lowering with each breath. His lightsaber was made from...bone. It had many different carvings on it, many appearing to be hieroglyphics. He was hunched over a little, and had on a cloak that was as black as the darkness around him.

"The Dark Side is strong in you...".

The hunched Sith snapped into combat position, his posture suddenly completely fixed. The 5'9'' man who was just previously standing before Marcus morphed into a hulking 7' tall Sith Warrior. His Lightsaber of bone ignited into a fiery red blade, and in that blade, Marcus could see the face of all those he cared about. And that same blade, with all those faces within, was now heading straight for Marcus. The ensuing battle was one-sided, with Marcus being completely toyed with by the Sith. Swing after powerful swing forced Marcus back, and then to his knees.

"You must use your hate to defeat me. You cannot win without calling upon the source of victory, the only thing that can change this galaxy for the better, the dark side." The Sith brought his blade above his head, and in the blade once more, Marcus saw his mother and Elyssia, both screaming in agony. Their terror was completely silenced after a mere moment, and Marcus knew they were dead.

In a fit of pure rage, Marcus embraced the power he needed, and stood up with both of his lightsabers being swung upwards to block the Sith's strike. The block knocked the Sith back a step and off balance, to which Marcus would capitalize on. With a mad flurry of swings, the Sith's chest was practically gone, and Marcus ended it with one final swing by bringing both sabers across his body. The Sith flew backwards, vanquished. But the body that flew backwards wasn't the Sith, it was Adeline. Before the body hit the ground, the room started shifting. It was forming into the Temple, into the archives room. Everything was burning and broken. Smoke filled the top of the room, and bodies of fellow Jedi littered the floor. Fear and pain could be felt in the air...

Atsa and Jehaa, after Jehaa regained her senses and figured out the small annoying bundle was Atsa, experienced a similar change in scenery. The area narrowed into a long hallway, barely able to fit Jehaa and Atsa. The walls were a cold stone, with small vines slowly taking them over. Down the hallway was a bright light, which was almost blinding to look at. From behind them, a swarm of what had to be some kind of insect began spilling out from holes in the wall. The swarm started charging right for the two, all with 8 long bug legs. The insects were all black and the size of a grown man's fist, with two long tendrils protruding from the front of their heads. Their exoskeleton was smooth, and was shaped like a beetle.

The walls of the hallway were now slowly starting to come together like a trash compacter, and parts of the floor began to give way. The chittering sound of the swarm's movement was becoming louder, and Atsa and Jehaa didn't have much time. Little did they know, or really think to care, was what these arthropods would do to the pair if they came into contact with each other...

When Koda next opened his eyes, he was floating above the galaxy, looking down on it. It was truly a beautiful sight, each sun shining with its own unique light, surrounded by their own unique planets. There was a sense of peace that could be felt by Koda. There was a certain balance to it all. But just as quickly as he had arrived, the galaxy was becoming consumed by fire, left only with darkness after the flames died out. The screams of the people from every planet echoed in Koda's head, and the galaxy fell to the darkness.

An unknown force took Koda and shot him towards the burning core of the galaxy, towards Tython. From the atmosphere Koda could see the smoke, a smoke that carried the very smell of death. He was brought closer and closer, until he was above the Jedi Temple. It was untouched, the only thing on the planet at this point. But a large force was coming out of the burning forest, a force that was covered in black cloaks. They casually walked up to the main door of the temple ad knocked on the door. After no response was given, the one in the front of the army kicked the giant door down, and so began the battle of the Temple. Red lightsabers illuminated the sea of black. The back rows equipped blasters and began firing from their positions.

Koda was unable to do anything to interact with the scene, but was able to move around and observe. One by one the masters fell trying to protect the younger Jedi, who became the victims of the next wave. No one was safe, and eventually every Jedi fell. The assailants left the Temple, and all that remained was the ruined temple with all of its inhabitants slain.

In the archive room Adeline and Marcus would appear, and in the council room Jehaa and Atsa would appear.
