The Aris Tyra Story {Ongoing}

Episode 3

I didn't know how long I had been on the ship, I meditated most of the time which made it hard to keep track of the time. I had tried to contact Violet through the Force but had received no reply. The dark presence's moved; sometimes there were 3 or 4, sometimes there were only 1. But I knew that Darth Vader was always on the ship. I was fed once a day which helped me keep track but once I got to 22 days I lost count, exhausted from dehydration, starvation and insomnia.

Then one day, I think it was day 36, the darkest presence I had ever felt arrived on the ship. I had only felt this presence once before; when I first sensed Darth Vader. I shivered slightly and opened my eyes to the same view, a blank wall. I sighed and stood as I sensed people moving toward my cell. The door opened and 10 stormtroopers came into the room, pointing their guns at me. I put my hands up and smirked,

"You've already got me, boys," I told them, gesturing around the room. An Imperial officer came into the room, his hands behind his back. "This is a bit unnecessary," I put my arms down as the officer came up to me.

"You are lucky Lord Vader hasn't killed you," the officer circled me, "I believe he has other plans for you,"

"I'm not going to tell him anything about the Jedi," I shrugged as the officer came in front of me again.

"No," the officer laughed, "Not information," He grabbed my hand and put it on one side of a pair of cuffs, then he grabbed my other hand and put it on the other side. Then he left the cell, the stormtroopers around me started to close in so I followed the officer out of the cell. He led me through the star destroyer and into the hangar. We climbed onto a ship and soon we were moving through space to whatever planet we were about to land on.

"So," I looked at the officer, "What planet is this?"

"That is none of your concern, Jedi," he spat.

"See," I sighed and sat down on the floor, the officer looked from me to one of the stormtroopers who shrugged, "You say 'Jedi' like it's an insult. But every time one of your Imperials says it, I see it as a sign of respect, you're using my title. Well, my full title is Jedi Master but close enough. It would be like me using your title, calling you Captain or whatever the kriff your title is. You wouldn't see it as an insult, would you?"

"Shut up," the officer growled. I grinned up at him, pleased that I had annoyed him. As the ship stopped moving two stormtroopers grabbed my arms and hoisted me up. My feet touched metal and we moved to the back of the ship as the door opened. The officer went out first and then I followed, being held by the two stormtroopers.

The hangar we were in was a large area, with stormtroopers and officers working everywhere. As I looked around it looked as if we were on some sort of water planet as the sky was dark and grey and I could hear water splashing against whatever building we were on. I was taken into an elevator and we went down into the structure. When the elevator opened I was taken into a corridor with a tall roof, one of the walls was completely glass and I could see the water.

I was led further on, through a door and 3 dozen corridors until we came to what looked like the training room in the Jedi Temple, large and round. The officer took the cuffs off of me and I rubbed my wrists as the stormtroopers let go of me and moved to the side of the room. I waited for something to happen, anything to happen.

After a few moments, another officer came into the room followed by stormtroopers. Then they all moved to the side of the room as well, revealing Violet sitting on the floor. "Vi!" I gasped, I ran over to her and fell to her side, "Are you alright?"

"Those kriffing Imperials," she coughed. I stood up again and looked spun in a circle, looking around the room, every few metres a stormtrooper stood against the wall.
