"I can't believe the Jedi council believe the lies they tell their younglings." A dark voice boomed down the temple hallway.
The Jedi temple, even in flames, was still a glorious sight. The hallway was an isosceles trapezoid extending from the wolf clan dorm to the temple center point. Astrie looked down the hallway, there he saw a Sith lord. The dark lord was completely covered in a black robe.
"The Jedi council teaches you all lies. Join me and I will spare your clan."
Astrie looked behind him. There he saw his former clanmates, cowering in fear, ages 5-10. He himself had just turned 13 and graduated to Jedi Padawan.
Astrie shouted as loudly as possible, "I am a Jedi, I will not fall for your dark..."
The Sith was quick to cut him off. "True," Astrie could feel the Sith grinning. "But, I am a Jedi too you know."
The Flames danced around the hall blindingly. "Astrie, get back. get you and your clanmates to the escape shuttles. Go far away."
Astrie looked up to see his new master, Jedi Knight Corvex. He was a short Cathar with a giant lightsaber. His fur was a light coffee colour. With his eyes red from the smoke he lunged at the Sith. Astrie ran into the clan room.
"Quick we all need to get to the shuttles. Coruscant is being invaded by the Sith." Astrie commanded the younglings, and they did so. Even at his young age, Astrie possessed strong leadership skills.
With the Sith distracted, they ran past him and reached the shuttle. The shuttle was small, he loaded his clanmates on, but he stayed behind. Instead of obeying his master, he rushed to join the fight, lightsaber drawn he lunged. His blue blade met that of a red one. Then his Masters Green one swung to hit the Sith's side. Blocked. Astrie was surprised by how the Sith could pit his blade to block the green one.
Astrie focused on forcing his blade to clash with the red one. This gave his master the opening for attack. It didn't take long for Corvex to get the gist. They worked in almost perfect unity. Block, hit, Block, hit. About ten strikes later the Sith was killed.
