Chapter 5: Ice Fortress
As the Eagle came out of hyperspace, the three young adventurers looked with excitement. Rhen Var, the ice planet that contained what they were looking for. As they neared it, they could sense the Force all around it. “It feels as if it’s alive or something!” Secretus exclaimed. “It says that a certain temple and city are in a sort of mountainous area. I’m guessing that’s where we need to go.” Allcaps stated as he punched in the planetary coordinates. They found where they needed to go. As they passed through the atmosphere, they could see that it was indeed in possession as an icy terrain. They passed by ruins of what looked like to be a huge city. They then saw a big building, which was perched on top of a mountain. That was their destination. As they took it down for a landing on a nearby lookout post, they all seemed to sense a sort of ripple in the Force. Secretus felt it more significantly than the others. Grabbing some combat gear just in case, they exited out of their ship and started down the mountain.
A brown coated figure looked up at the mountain. Another was close by. “It seems we have some visitors. It seems our master made a slight error when saying that no one would come here.” “That is why he sent us here, brother. We are here to guard this place when this kind of thing happens.” “What is our plan then?” “We wait for now. See why they have come here.” Both figures disappeared into the snow.
“Finally, I was starting to get bored of going down so much snow.” DOOM had said with relief. The three seemed to be looking at a back entrance to the building, which now looked like a fortress. They also saw a statue of a hooded man with a sword pointing downwards. No doubt that it was Darkknight, the founder of the {Jedi}. They all bowed in respect, and felt the Force strongly as they went inside the fortress. It seemed like a temple, and almost an exact replica of the {Jedi} temple on Coruscant. But that was from the inside. They traveled through and found three graves. They all seemed significant somehow. Each traveler read tried to read the inscriptions around the crypts. They were in utter awe at what they found. These belonged to the three Grand Masters of the old {Jedi}: Ender, Tchdwn, and Snow. They looked at the roof to see a candle-lamp over each crypt, supporting the signifigance of the three. “I think it’s time we move on.” Allcaps suggested. The other two agreed, and walked on as they looked back at the crypts. They were amazed. They were even more amazed that the (Sith) didn’t know about this place. Not yet probably. They finally entered the library. It was a magnificent piece of architecture. It was like a tower, and what looked like dozens of floors all holding shelves of books. Many had been destroyed, along with the knowledge they held. Others that weren’t completely in pieces held common types of books found in everyday-normal libraries. They then went on the top floor, finding what looked to be only holocron holders. They immediately started to search.
“My Queen, we have found the fortress and your shuttle is ready. You may depart whenever.” Captain Apollo reported. “Yes, I think it’s time for me to go now.” Tigress was jumped up out of the Captain’s Throne on the bridge and hurried out the door without hesitation. Indeed, she had been bored. As her shuttle cruised over the city and towards the fortress, she found it nice to land in an ancient hangar. “I want to see the full structure before going inside, then I will want to explore the city after going through the library.” The Queen stated, almost as if she were a treasure hunter finding jewels and gold. She once again sensed an all too familiar ripple, but it was a little different than the last. It was still similar to it though. The guards sensed it, and sensed Tigress’s fear as they went from being at ease to the Soresu lightsaber stance. The Queen motioned for them to put their weapons away and led them down the path towards the fortress. She would be sure not to be caught off guard this time, even if these “ripplers” weren’t against her.
“It seems as though she knows we’re here. Curious.” One brown robe said to the other. “Indeed. She is the one that the Force chose though. We cannot attack her. That is against our orders.” “Should we rid of the pests in the library to clear a path for her?” The other thought for a moment. “Our master said nothing of that. It would also be entertaining for us, if only to hold us over a little longer.” The figures laughed and disappeared.
“DOOM, Caps, any luck?” Secretus had been searching through the holocrons, DOOM the holo-shelves, and Allcaps the ancient catalogs, all for what they had come to look for. “Nothing so far!” “Not a thing, Capt’!” DOOM and Allcaps shouted. Secretus kept on his search. He couldn’t get it out of his mind that he was being watched. He also couldn’t figure out what the ripples he had sensed with the others as soon as they set foot on the snow. It was almost as if they had awakened a spirit that had been doomed to guard its grave in this battlefield. Secretus knew better than to imagine. Then it hit him. He immediately back flipped to the roof and launched himself downwards from there with a lightsaber in one hand and a vibroblade in the other. He swung at what was at first air. Then it came into view, but it exploded somehow. Secretus was knocked back into the roof, which then fell on him and dragged him down to the floor with his two friends. All three spread the wreckage apart and drew out their lightsabers. They barely had any time to think as they parried and tried to counter a double-bladed silver lightsaber that was swinging at them with unimaginable speed. The staff separated itself into two single sabers, which now were moving much faster than before. Soon, Allcaps and DOOM were knocked to the ground unconscious, and Secretus was left fending off for his own. No, this wasn’t going to happen. He had been through so much, and he wasn’t going to let himself or his friends die like this. He broke. He lashed out with everything he had, all emotions and the Force running through him accompanied by adrenaline. He rushed hard, then harder, until he finally knocked both sabers out of his opponent’s hands. He now had time enough to at least look at his opponent. A brown robe covering what looked to be silvery metal armor.
“I see you know some things about combat with the lightsaber, young one.” The Warrior admired. “You still don’t have enough to defeat me.” With that, he unleashed Force Repulse, which knocked Secretus off his feet and into the wall, crushing him into it. Seeing that his sabers were broken, the Warrior pulled out two long swords that were held tightly on the back of his armor, which was worn under his robe. He charged the energy cells in both and charged himself into Secretus. Secretus, witnessing his own saber being smashed to pieces by his enemy’s weapons, grab DOOM’s double-blue staff and continued the fight outside of the library and into the snow. Fighting cautiously but recklessly for the survival of him and his friends, Secretus unleashed what he thought he had never had. He fought quickly with his opponent, even though he had not mastered the staff as well as others and definitely not as well as his opponent. The two always seemed toe to toe. Finally both paused and breathe hard. Secretus collapsed into the snow unconscious after being shot by red lightning. The last thing he saw were two brown robed figures, one walking towards him and the other heading into the library.
