Vengeance: A Sith's Story (Male Sith OC x Star Wars)

Chapter 19: The Nightsisters

The Temple:

Currently, the Grand Emperor, his wife, and their son, are watching a great battle take place through the Talzin's crystal ball. The Separatists were getting ever more desperate, and the Republic seemed to be fighting with less and less ethics each day. But, despite the bloodshed, that is not what the pair were focused on. "I sense a nightsister in the midst of the battle. One corrupted by the false Sith, the infected Dark Side," Malidictus calmly told his wife. Talzin nodded, "Asajj Ventress. One of us, until we were forced to give her up in order for our clan to survive," she said sadly. "I sense that she is not too far gone my love. She can be healed from the infection, and cleansed of the false Sith ways," he admitted as Talzin held his arm around her and their son, who was pleasantly watching along with his parents. It seemed that Ventress had engaged both Skywalker and Kenobi, and were now dog-fighting viciously, whilst also being able to take out the bridge of a Republic Venator. "Strong indeed. She holds potential, much like Maul. However, Asajj seems to lack control, and focuses on blind rage alone," Malidictus commented. Talzin nodded, "She remembers Dathomir, yet has been taken down a path that we must not let her continue to walk down," the nightmother said, agreeing with her husband.

Continuing to watch the battle, they saw all three ships crash into the bay of a separatist frigate, with Asajj immediately engaging both Jedi in a fierce duel. "Flawed her ways are, but not too much of an issue to fix," the Grand Emperor commented. Then, a familiar sense flooded his head. "Dooku. He has corrupted her," he seethed. "But, the duel sabres certainly hold many advantages," he added. Just then, the command ship that they were on, was blasted to pieces. Talzin watched, wide eyed as her husband sighed a little, "Is...she alive?" Talzin asked. Malidictus closed his eyes and searched for her force signature. "Yes. But wounded. I will send her a message through a mental connection," he said, before he began to focus. "Come to Dathomir...." he whispered before promptly opening his eyes. "Now, we wait my dear. She will come to us eventually," he said as they both left the area with Ky.

Meanwhile, Ventress awoke to a strange voice inside her head. "Come to Dathomir...." it whispered, a males voice, and it was so....inviting. Caring even. "What is this?" Ventress huffed as she opened her eyes to see, that she had been rescued by pirates/scavengers. Either way, she was heading to one place, and one place only. Dathomir. Home. "You took quite a beatin' there, didn't you missy?" a blue twi'lek chuckled. "Which side of the battle was you on?" he asked. Ventress just looked at him. "Aw. Not too talkative, are ya?" he mocked. "Take me to Dathomir," Ventress grumbled in a slightly hoarse voice. "Now why would anyone wanna go there? That's the Sith Empire's capital planet. Nothin' but trouble if you're an outsider," the twi'lek commented. "Exactly," Ventress snarled before using the force to choke everyone around her. Panting, she made her way to the cockpit and hijacked the ship, bringing it about and then taking off into hyperspace.

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

When she hopped out of hyperspace, and began her entry into Dathomirian airspace, she took notice of the massive, advanced, powerful fleet that orbited the planet. As she approached familiar red planet, the ship's communicator turned on. "Identify yourself and tell us what you are doing in imperial airspace," demanded a blue-skinned being with black hair and red eyes. Looking at the fleet, Asajj knew she couldn't run, outmanoeuvre, or fight, so, she begrudgingly complied. "I was told to come here. A male voice whispered to me whilst I was unconscious," she explained. "And what might your name be?" the blue-skinned man asked. "Asajj Ventress, and you?" she asked. "Grand Admiral Thrawn, of the Sith imperial fleet. Do not worry Asajj, you are expected. Land near the temple," he instructed before two imperial fighters came to her side. Normally, Ventress would've picked a fight, but in this case, she chose to be smart and did what she was told. However, she was puzzled, expected? Who could have expected her apart from Mother Talzin?
