"I have to admit I'm skeptical for what the Emperor has to say."
"What do you mean?" The sith lord replied. We were on the bridge of the Eclipse overlooking the city sprawl that was Coruscant.
"Well he mentioned something about force users in the Empire."
"Implying?" Vader said, intrigued.
"Competition." I simply stated.
"I see, I share your concerns Comissar."
"We must attempt to seize control over them, or if it comes to it..."
"...destroy them." Vader finished.

Suddenly the bridge doors burst open revealing an Utapauan in Sith attire.

"Greetings." He said.
Me and Vader ignited our lightsabers, mine encrusted with red and gold, matching my uniform.

"Who are you?" I demanded.
"Competition." Vader said.
The intruder then ignited his blades, which came from a double bladed hilt. Then our sabers came crashing together, locked together.
"Stand down!" A raspy voice said.
Then we all turned and bowed before our Emperor. Aswell as deactivating our sabers.
"My master." Vader said.
"My Lord." The intruder said.
"My, Emperor." I then said.
"My apologies for the confusion, he said." But I knew he didn't mean it as he cackled in laughter afterwards.
"Comissar, Vader. May I introduce the Grand Inquisitor."
"Grand?" Vader questioned.
"There's more of them?" I asked.
"He is the leader of the Inquisitorius who are new Dark Side adepts in service of the Empire." The Emperor stated. I felt Vader's blood boil at the name of our new competition.
"Follow Me." The Emperor stated.

We followed him to the hanger and we were revealed to the rest of the Inquisitors. The Grand Inquisitor introduced us.

"This is Commissar (L/N) and Lord Vader. We are to serve them as we serve the Emperor." The Utapauan said.

"And why in the galaxy should we do that?!" An Inquisitor said.

"Remember your place ninth sister."

The Grand Inquisitor commanded

The Grand Inquisitor commanded.

"I like the one in red." Said another. I noticed how she carried a lightsaber pike instead of a Copter Saber like the others.

"A bit too beurocratic for my liking, I prefer the masked man." Said the Inquisitor next to her.

"You will obey us whether you like us or not!" Vader said

"You will obey us whether you like us or not!" Vader said.

"Quite." I responded with him. I found it a bit uncomfortable that only the female Inquisitors took notice of us, Vader nodded at me. Sensing my thoughts and agreeing with me. Me and him, we were in this together and we both knew it.

"Enough!" The Grand Inquisitor shouted.

He then proceeded to Introduce the Inquisitors.
Then the Grand Inquisitor started to argue with them, I noticed how the Emperor already left as his shuttle wasn't there. I nodded to Vader and went up to the balcony overlooking the Inquisitors.

"What an absolute rabble." I said.

"Shambles." Vader blurted out.

"And they are, 'our' competition? Ridiculous."

We both continued to wine about the Inquisitors as they sparred in the hanger below.

"They don't even fight like sith! They still fight defensively."

"Maybe we should show them how it's done." Vader suggested. I smiled.

"It will be my pleasure."

Then you both jumped down from the balcony stunning all Inquisitors.

"Woah!" The seventh sister exclaimed, she had her saber locked with the fith brother's.

"You look like sith, you act like sith but you do not fight like them." I criticised.

"The Comissar is correct, you fight like Jedi. Who you once were."

"Then how about you show us how we should fight?" The fith brother said, agitated as attached his Saber to his belt.

"We were thinking the exact same thing." I activated my lightsaber and struck it at Vader's who already had his activated. Vader the used the force to push me away but I slowed down by plunging my saber into the shiny durasteel floor. Vader then tried to strike at me but had to then parry some Sith lightning which gave me time to stand up. I was using form II of lightsaber combat, which was used by the late Count Dooku. I liked his poise and his style. Very elegant. Just like Princess Trio...

Then Vader's force pushed me again. And I landed on the floor with a crash. But before he had time to realise I pulled out my blaster pistol and shot at him, crippling his knees. We both then fell to the floor, exhausted.

"Draw?" I suggested?
"Draw." Vader said.
Then the fourth sister helped me up, and the 2nd helped Vader. Although Vader was less grateful than I was.
"There are no draws in battle." The sixth brother said, but we all shot him a look.
"Fine! Suit yourselves."
