Stepping In (Star Wars AU)

Chapter 1

Third Person

The alien watched as Shaak Ti fell from Sarlacc.

'How did I not sense her?'

"You are Vader's slave but your power is wasted with him. You could be so much more."

"You will never convince me to betray my master." The Sith says.

"Poor boy. The Sith always betray one another... but I'm sure you'll learn that soon enough." Shaak Ti says as she takes a step back, falling into the Sarlacc. The alien jumped out of her hiding spot and used the Force to pull Shaak Ti to herself. The alien sets Shaak on the ground lightly. She was unconscious.

"Jedi." The Sith snarls.

"Sith." The alien says politely.

This makes the Sith angrier. He charges. She blocks his blade with hers.

"Your tired with your fight with Shaak Ti."

The Sith jumps back. He uses his comm to contact someone. Then a ship flies overhead. The ramp lowers and the Sith jumps on it.

"I will kill you!" The Sith screams as the ship flies away.

The alien picks Shaak up and walks towards her ship.

'She will die if she does not get treated.'

--------------

Starkiller screams as Vader's lightning flows through his body. Vader, formerly known as Anakin Skywalker, delves into his apprentice's mind. He see's an image of the mysterious Jedi that helped Shaak Ti.

'What?'

Vader stops electrocuting Starkiller.

"Leave."

Starkiller nods and walks out in a hurry.

'How is this possible? How is Aayla Secura alive? If she's managed to survive, who else survived the Jedi Purge?'
