Plo Part One

Part 2

Power is like a drug. Once you have some, you crave more. Those who seek true power will not hesitate to take a life. Once you have attained true power, you then realize that you had it all along. You just had to get rid of some of the extra weight wearing you down.

He is finally ready. After 10 years under master Sifo Dyas, he was finally ready to face the trials. The trials would prove that he had achieved the full rank of Jedi. During this span of a decade, Plo had lost his lightsaber during a mission on Felucia. Plo was greatly ashamed and took it upon himself to craft another blade. One who's handle was forged of Mandalorian steel, the strongest metal in existence. This new saber had produced an extremely dark blue blade and signified that he was not a guardian, a protector of the peace. With this new blade he was able to pass the trials and become a full fledged Member of the Jedi order. About a week after his induction, the council assigned him a mission on Dantooine to go and investigate an old sith temple. The Jedi on the council said nothing about the temple, but Plo could sense that something was wrong and that he needed to be careful.

Once it is time to strike, be sure not to miss. For that will be the gravest mistake you shall ever make. You must harness the power that is within you and embrace the darkness. For when it finds you, you need to be ready.

They landed at the Jedi Enclave that served as a place to seek refuge from the Federation. After a meeting with the Jedi master stationed at the Enclave, Plo began the 2 day walk to the temple. Along the way, Plo looked back. He remembered being incredibly nervous when he first stepped foot on Coruscant. He remembered when he first met his old master Sifo Dyas. He also remembered feeling sad, and alone. This feeling of loneliness had always been there. Ever since his parents were murdered, he was alone. Well, for the most part. He still had his brother. Or at least, he used to have his brother. He moved back to Dorin one year before Plo Koon got inducted into the council. It was difficult for Plo, but he was able to move on. After he left, he devoted his life to learn the ways of force. And now with that knowledge, he was able to achieve the rank of Guardian.

Don't fear the dark, for it can sense weakness. It can also sense great power. It all comes down to you. If you show it weakness, it will consume you. If you show it power however, you shall consume it. And with this darkness inside of you, you will rule the galaxy. It is all up to you.

Upon his arrival at the temple, he discarded his backpack and began walking towards the door. As he did this, the bushes swayed back and forth in the sudden outburst of wind. The sky began to darken and thunderheads formed over head. He could tell this was a place of great darkness. As soon as he approached the entrance, the door slid open, almost as if somebody had seen him coming. He stepped inside the structure to find a large open area, littered with empty cans of what appeared to some sort of food. At the end of the hallway, there was a stooped over figure who appeared to be meditating. The figure rose to a standing position. With a mild humming sound, Plo could see two red lightsaber blades ignite as the figure began to rush towards him. Plo ignited his own saber and locked blades with this unknown assailant.
