Kara Chapter 14

<Lights-Sacrifice>	*It was dangerously cold where Brett woke up, being naked certainly didnt help his situation either.*

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: Ugh...where...am I...?

<Byzantinefire1>	Brett was locked in a cell with the rest of the team.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ... *looks at his teammates* ...Are you guys...alright?

<Byzantinefire1>	Cal: aside from being captured?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ........

<Byzantinefire1>	Cal: Not so much.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ....I'm so sorry...for all of this...

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: Why?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ...If I hadn't gotten Count Dooku's lightsaber...nor stowawayed on your ship...you wouldn't be in this mess...

<barefootZanko>	Keyla shakes her head.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: Something like this would have happened eventually. We should have been more prepared.

<Byzantinefire1>	Cal: Agreed.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla looks through the cell bars, lost in thought.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: What happens to us now...?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: I wish I knew...

<Byzantinefire1>	A few hours have gone by.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	*The group ponder for a little while, before they hear breathing throughout the halls- https://www.youtube.com/watch?…	*

<Byzantinefire1>	Vader approaches the cell.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	*Brett peeps through the bars and notices the Dark Lord himself approaching the cell.*

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: Great...

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: You are all alive? How disappointing.

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: Why are we still alive?

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: What do you want from us?

<Lights-Sacrifice> Darth Vader: You are all being held for ransom by the Empire...and him- *pooints to Brett* the Emperor requests an audience with your son.

<Byzantinefire1>	Cal: What?

<barefootZanko>	Keyla looks at Brett worriedly.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: The Emperor...?

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: I'm confused?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: You're friend over there...is the grandson to the long since dead, Count Dooku...

<barefootZanko>	Keyla's eyes widen.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: Brett...?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ...................

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: The Emperor sees multiple uses in him, more importantly...introducing him to the Dark Side of the Force.

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: You do realize he is not actually a child right.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: I'm fully aware of his issue...in this form, he can be properly rehabilitated...

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: And what of the rest of us?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: You will either be sent to an Imperial Labor Camp, or face death by firing squadron. Take your pic.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla crosses her arms, and turns to the rest of the squadron, raising her eyebrows.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: We should brave the camp. *Keyla winks, reminding them*

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: ...Death by firing squadron it is.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla motions angrily at Vader.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: So much for a choice.

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: Its Vader what do you expect.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: *suspends Phara in the air with the force...choke*

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara resists.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: I find your lack of choking disturbing.

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: Well i find your lack of humanity very disturbing master.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: *tosses Phara into the wall* And I find you being alive disturbing.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: .......

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: Surprised?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: .......

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: Even with one arm, you're power is plentiful...perhaps you may be of more use to the Empire than I expected.

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: My arm will heal in time.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: ...You are a Jedi, aren't you...?

<Byzantinefire1>	Phara: No just a former servant to you.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: Hahhahaha...cute... Child *referring to Brett* come...it is time to embrace the Dark Side of the Force...

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: What if I don't want to...?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: You don't have a choice.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: You can't break our spirits.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: I can still break your bones.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: You took me from my crew... my family... my home...

<barefootZanko>	Keyla slams her fist against the wall.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: Everyone here has been hurt by you! Not just me.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: Do you really think this is right?!

<barefootZanko>	She seethes at Vader furiously.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: I do what I need to do for the Empire.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: Do you ever bother to think for yourself?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Darth Vader: All the time.

<barefootZanko>	Keyla: Y-your morals can't seriously be that twisted...

<Lights-Sacrifice>	*Later...Brett is being escorted toward Vader's shuttle by a horde of stormtroopers. He's now clad in an imperial outfit around his size.*

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ........

<Byzantinefire1>	The Executor is just above coruscant.

The shuttle then descends towards the planet the shuttle arrives at the imperial palace formally the Jedi Temple.

<Byzantinefire1>	Brett then walked into the halls of the palace.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: -_- I want my friends free at once....

<Byzantinefire1>	Imperial Guard: Silence.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: :| ...

<Byzantinefire1>	Brett and the Guards enter the Throne room.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ...So quiet in here...

<Byzantinefire1>	He then sees the throne and on it the emperor himself.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ...Never thought I'd see the day where I'd meet the Emperor himself...

<Byzantinefire1>	Palpatine: Hehehehe.

<Byzantinefire1>	Palpatine: Likewise.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: You knew my Grandfather, I take it...?

<Byzantinefire1>	Palpatine: Lord Tyrannus yes.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: Chilling...what do you want from me then...?

Palpatine: Only your servitude.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: Sorry, you're not getting that from me.

<Byzantinefire1>	Palpatine: Even at the expense of your friends lives?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ...You wouldn't dare...

<Byzantinefire1>	Palpatine: and why would you think i wouldn't.

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ...Good point...

<Byzantinefire1>	Palpatine: So do we have an accord or do you condemn your friends to death?

<Lights-Sacrifice>	Brett: ......We have an accord...

<Byzantinefire1>	The emperor smiles with a sadistic glea.
