Darth Bane looked upon the horizon of Korriban. It has been 10 years since he took his apprentice Darth Zannah, and the two have been hidden ever since. Something came upon him, though. Darth Revan's Holocron helped him get this far. He destroyed the Brotherhood and created his own, and took an apprentice. With a new Sith Order, Bane needed to find a new Holocron, the Holocron of Belia Darzu, and there was one place he could do this. Tython. Tython was quite an important place during the Old Sith Wars, and many Holocrons are hidden there, as well as many empty Holocrons.
Darth Zannah, now age 18, walked up to Bane, her double-bladed lightsaber in hand.
"I sensed something in the Force, master." Said Zannah.
"Indeed, my apprentice. We must go to the planet Tython. I have to find the Holocron of Belia Darzu."
Zannah nodded her head. Bane and Zannah walked to their ship and got in. Bane raced out of Korriban and went into hyperspeed. After a while in hyperspeed, the two landed on Tython. They both got out, lightsabers in hand, and walked into a cave. Bane ignited his red blade, Zannah ignited both of hers. Her lightsaber was unique. It was a black double bladed lightsaber with hits of silver, and the blades were red like Bane's.
After walking in the cave for a bit, Bane saw a whole row of Holocrons and empty Holocrons. But after searching for the right orb, Bane felt some sort of insect crawling all over him. He twitched and scratched trying to get the parasites off of him.
"Orbalisks!" Cried Zannah.
Orbalisks were a native species of Tython. They were gold, and their shell was impenetrable to nearly everything, including lightsabers.
Bane felt the parasites crawl all over him, but little did he know that they were creating armor around him, something that orbalisks often did. The orbalisks created gold armor all around Bane, even a mask. The mask was the most unique part. It was fully gold and had sharp design.
Zannah stepped back to observe the orbalisks who were everywhere. Bane looked at himself, amazed at what had just happened. Orbalisk armor was ridiculously powerful, and Bane has a suit. Zannah looked around, and found a whole chest full of orbalisks.
"I am more powerful than ever, now." Said Bane confidently.
Just when Zannah was about to touch the orbalisks, she saw a group of people jump down from the top of the cave. She ignited her saber and Bane did the same. Then they ignited their sabers.
One of the Jedi held a double-bladed blue lightsaber, one wielding two separate blue lightsabers, one with a single green saber, one with a double-bladed green saber, and one with a single orange bladed lightsaber.
Bane ignited his red lightsaber and Bane and Zannah stood back to back, knowing they were outnumbered. The Jedi with the double-bladed green saber attacked Zannah, along with the Jedi with the orange lightsaber. Bane fought off the rest. These Jedi were obviously the best they could find, because they were quick and agile, swift with their movements. But Bane was strong and he killed the Jedi with the single green lightsaber. He took that Jedi's lightsaber and fought with two in hand. He was now even more powerful.
Zannah tried to defend herself from the 3 blades trying to kill her. She spinned her lightsaber in a circle over and over to defend herself. The Sith and two Jedi got in a blade lock, but Zannah got pushed back, knocking into and destroying a row of Holocrons. Bane, distracted by this, got stabbed in the leg by one of the Jedi. Angered, he used Force Lightning against him, but the Jedi deflected it with one of his blades, making the lightning go back to Bane, about to hit him.
At the last second, Bane created a force barrier around him, making the lightning fly everywhere and hitting the chest of orbalisks, which exploded. Bane dodged the Jedi's attack and cut off his hands. Bane then cut off his head using both sabers. He limped to his next opponent and locked blades with both sabers.
Zannah dodged many attacks with ease and killed the Jedi with the orange blade. She then killed the Jedi with the double-bladed green lightsaber. With the Jedi she battled being killed, she decided to help Darth Bane who had just collapsed to the ground because of his weak leg he got stabbed in. But before she could help him, he had already gotten stabbed in the side, where the orbalisk armor didn't protect him. She stabbed that Jedi in his back and then got in a duel with the remaining Jedi, the one wielding two blue sabers.
She struck him in the back and stabbed him in his head. She ran over to her master who had a wound on his leg and his side. He was still breathing and Bane was still alive. She dragged him in a corner, where she took off his mask and tried to heal him as much as she could with the Force. Bane eventually woke up, but was still not well enough to walk on his own. Zannah sat there with him, not knowing what to do.
