The Lost Blade
The Memory Intruder
Previous ChapterNext ChapterArvikang stood in a strange place, familiar, but he couldn't place it, then he realized that he had no body. No not again, not this dream! Arvikang thought. Desperateness over came reason and he kept trying to wake up. If he had just calmly accepted the dream he would have felt the presence of someone else, the one who was digging in Arvikang's mind bringing out not a dream, but a memory. Arvikang hated dreams particularly this dream if it was the one he was thinking of. In front of Arvikang stood 2 people, one of them an adult the other a young teenager. From where he could see Arvikang noticed the teenager had shaggy black hair. Arvikang could also just make out the corner of a blue eye. They both had the appearance of Jedi, the adult obviously the Jedi Knight and the other his apprentice.
"Master can we go yet?" the young boy asked.
"Patience my young Padawan." the Jedi replied.
Suddenly the boy turned and if he could Arvikang would have gasped. The boy was Arvikang, age 13. Present Arvikang gritted his teeth or tried to anyway. After a minute of Arvikang 13 and his master talking, Present Arvikang could hear distant blaster fire.
"Come Padawan we must move." the Jedi said swiftly then began hurrying off into what appeared to be a small village.
Present Arvikang finally took note of his surroundings. He was on top a mountain as he could see a valley below, and he could also see several other small settlements across the mountain range and the valley. Then hurrying to keep up, Arvikang sort of drifted to where he could see his younger self dueling a Chiss pirate. The Chiss had several burns on his clothing and armor from where young Arvikang had almost scored several duel ending strikes. While the pirate was good, young Arvikang was still better. With a flick of his hand young Arvikang sent a piece of rock at the Chiss, who just barely dodged it, though the pirate still took a nasty scratch from a shard of the rock when it burst apart. As present Arvikang knew what would happen he looked to where the Jedi was just cutting another pirate down with a flourish of his green lightsaber, then as Arvikang turned he saw young Arvikang successively land a mortal blow along the ribs of his opponent. The Chiss collapsed with a barely a sound and lay still.
"Well done Arvikang." the Jedi praised while giving young Arvikang's hair an affectionate ruffle, "now lets get back to ship and we ca-"
The Jedi was cut off as he was struck in the back by a blaster bolt. He gave a out a small strangled cry then slumped to the ground, dead.
"No!" young Arvikang cried.
Serves you right, Arvikang thought bitterly. All Sith knew not to leave your back exposed even to a mortally wounded enemy. Suddenly young Arvikang turned rapidly, rage gleaming in his eyes.
"You killed my master... now I will kill you." he growled at the Chiss.
Ah yes, this is the part where I brutally torture the Chiss, present Arvikang thought, excited to be able to see some real violence. As he thought this, young Arvikang picked up his fallen master's lightsaber, as well as his own and activated both of them. Then using the Force, young Arvikang picked up the Chiss and suspended him in midair.
What happened next was something that Arvikang never forgot. Young Arvikang took both lightsabers and began to slowly torture the Chiss for three days. He used the lightsabers to burn and cut off body parts, he used the Force to cause the Chiss pure agony and he did more unspeakable things. On the third day the Chiss wasn't recognizable in the least. All that was left was a meaty torso and head covered in burns and bleeding from several lacerations. What used to be the mouth kept trying to beg for mercy, but its lungs couldn't function properly.
"I'm finally done with you, you filthy animal!" young Arvikang spat, "and know that what you have experienced is nothing compared to what I've lost."
Then without further ceremony he activated his lightsaber and performed a sai cha lightsaber execution a form of beheading. That was when present Arvikang noticed the intruder, the one that had been searching his mind, who he had not sensed until now.
"I found you..." Arvikang growled at the familiar purple unicorn...
