Meetra Surik [concerned]: "This ship is going to be destroyed in any minute. Marr, please take his mask and what do you see behind it?"

Visas Marr complies with the order and walks forward. She bends down and drops to her knees before lifting her hands to her previous Master's mask. Her hand trembles in fear. She doesn't know why but, the Dark side continues to grow more powerful the closer her hand is to the Sith Lord's mask. Right when she touches the mask of her deceased master her own head began experiencing visions. The feelings of hatred overwhelmed her mind as tears began to flow from her eyes which weren't visibly seen.

[Visas Marr]

Visas: "The compassion to destroy and feed..." Visas muttered out from her mouth. Her lips quivering and her hand trembling when gripping her Master's mask. The battle between the Republic and the Sith Empire scuffled more outside. Dogfighting with the opposing side in the void of space. A Republic Fighter was tailing an Imperial Sith Fighter. The Sith tried to shake off the tailing fighter, but it was proven futile. 

Visas: "The anger.. The hate.." Visas continued muttering and began lifting the mask off of her master's mask. The Sith Figther above soon went down and began spiraling out of control towards the Bridge.

Visas almost lifted the mask but, unfortunately an out-of-control Sith Starfighter was closing in on the bridge.

Surik: "Watch out!" The Jedi Master yelled and used the force to pull Visas away from Nihilsus' Body. It engulfed in flames as the vacuum of space began to suck out all the oxygen that was inside the Bridge. Surik and co. held onto anything that was firm enough to stop them from being sucked into space.

Imperial [Intercom]: "*BZZT* Sector 5 under heavy damage. ' Activating emergency shutdown doors now."

The order complied and the doors shut down the once broken windows. Fire still blazed from upon the deck. Visas looked back to the blazing fire.

Visas: "The Mask!" She cried out. As she screamed that out, the fire grew larger.

Meetra: "There is no more time, we must leave!" Meetra insisted.

Visas: "But.."

Meetra: "I'm sorry, but there is no more time left for us on this vessel. ' Unless you wanna be blasted to bits."

Visas nodded; however those feelings of strong hatred and hunger haunted her mind. However, she reluctantly fled the bridge and so did Meetra.

[Timeskip]

The Republic Fleet focused fire onto Nihilus' Flagship. They cheered as the ship blew up in an instant with another strong turbo-laser shot. The fleet pulled away and retreated into Hyperspace as the remaining Sith forces scattered in defeat. Visas Marr looked into the ongoing light blue and cyan streams of Hyperspace with an emotionless expression. However, she knew that Nihilus' tyrannical reign was over.

Or so she thought...

[Ten thousands of years later..]

On a desolate planet; two smugglers were loading contraband and chatting with one another.

Smuggler: "This job would be much more better if there was at least an opposition to come across."

Smuggler #2: "Don't jinx the situation."

Smuggler: "Yeah, Yeah. I know."

One of the smugglers came across something white on the dune red sands. It had red markings and seemed to resemble a mask of some kind.

Smuggler [Thoughts]: "This seems to be a mask from long ago." The mask seemed to be covered in dirt and sand. However, still thinking the mask will bring good fortune; the Smuggler pockets the mask and catches up with his partner. The Smuggler smirked while his partner was confused by his expression.

Smuggler #2: "What's with the smirk?" His partner asked.

Smuggler: "Thinking of the most hottest babe in the galaxy." He replied with a lie.

Smuggler #2: "Oh."

Smuggler: "Y'know Jerry, we could always relax at a bar for the time being and have some fun. Just the two of us."

Smuggler #2: "I'll pass Tom."

While the two smugglers were bickering back and forth about having fun. The mask from before resonated and a red iron scent clogged the air. They found themselves having a hard time inhaling oxygen.

???: "Such insolence, yet I don't have a choice." The anonymous dark voice said as the eyes of the smugglers were glowing blood red. The mask began to absorb the bodies of the two men and soon enough disappeared.

???: "I need.. more.." The voice called out. Soon mask that was floating began to manifest it's own body. Holding out it's hand and speaking incomprehensible screaming and language that were hard to comprehend and understand. The ship jumped to Hyperspace. The Force cried as it's own spirit began to shriek and scream across the galaxy.

Meanwhile on Coruscant..

The Jedi Temple was normal as any other day. Soon the blast struck like a soundwave. Screeching through the ears of all the Force Sensitives within the temple. The current grandmaster of the order; Master Yoda held his head in pain. The other council members present began comforting the Grandmaster.

Windu: "I felt a presence."

Ki-Adi-Mundi: "So did I. Something is wrong, I can feel it."

Yoda: "A disturbance in the force. There is." Yoda said.

Meanwhile in the Mustafar System..

The leader of the Separatist Alliance. Count Dooku was paying attentively to this meeting as if the volcanic ash in the atmosphere was enough and the Force shrieked in pain. He held his head in pain. 

Dooku groans in agony. As the representatives around him began to become worried.

Grievous: "My Lord. ' What is wrong?" The cyborg general asked.

Dooku: "There is a disturbance in the force." Dooku said; still holding his own hand on his forehead. Dooku never felt such a presence but, now it was possibly a chance to understand why. The Dark Side was strong and Dooku smirked which confused the other Separatist Leaders in the room.

Dooku: "Gentleman. ' I believe we found our solution to ending this war and separating from the corrupt government of the Republic."
