Zarith's POV

(A few days later)

I put an earpiece on my left ear as I walk up the steps to the temple. "Testing, can any of you hear me?" I asked, I heard the six others I had under my employ and the Jedi giving sound offs. "Remember guys, we're acquiring information and sabers, so I'm going to open the doorway, ready?" I asked. They said simultaneously, "Ready sir." Good, now, I thought as I was greeted by seven guards, still in their 501st legion armor. The one in the middle stopped me, "Excuse me kid, but this area is off limits to civilians. Turn back now." I smirked, "Oh please, captain, I insist that you let me go through." He stepped aside, "very well sir, you may go through." The other six soldiers looked at me as I could hear their necks crack and all seven head have turned fully 180 degrees around, their bodies falling down. I pressed my earpiece, saying, "seven guards, all dead. Retrieve and then disguise as them. After you seven do that, start getting into positions."

I walked, having retrieved two sabers, and arm guards from the clone troopers. One day, I'll fit into these sizes again. I continued when I noticed that a trooper behind me aimed his rifle at me, I sighed. Without any verbal warning, the trooper fired, using the force I stopped the blast, stating, "Son, you are over 4 thousand years too young to kill me", I sent the blast back to the trooper, killing him. I felt the lightning course through me, again, my blood-thirst was starting to show, along with the dark side. "We retrieved the data sir", I was alerted by the Jedi. Now we need to find some sort of transportation. "Jedi, is there a ship harbor?" I asked him. "Yes Zarith, on the other side of the temple." he answered. I took a moment to think, to send them back and get one ship, or bring them along and face a chance that we're discovered. "Jedi knight Ichago, Ashton and Micheal, come with me. The other four, return to the shop, we're making trade routes." I said. The three caught up in a couple of minutes. Good, "now, we're going to get either Delta 7 Aethersprite class light interceptors or the ETA-2 Actis Class light interceptors, do I make myself clear?" I asked. They agreed, holding a blaster in one hand and a saber in the other. We aren't going to let one trooper free. Tonight, we're a team. We fight as one. We reached the platform hangers relatively easy. We saw around twenty eight troops. I signaled the three with me to stop. "Hide, now", I told them. They were confused, but they hid. I conjured the dark side within me, reaching my hand outwards. I could feel the electricity surging from withing me to my fingertips. I focused the power. Force lightning left these young fingers, striking each trooper with great intensity. A few seconds later, all we could is piles of dust where the troopers once stood. "Go to your heart's content", I said, seeing them surprised and going to find their ship. We're going leave this planet. I grabbed myself an ETA-2 Actis Class light interceptor. "Ready? Fly!" I commanded, they flew. I waited a moment to be alone. I summoned the Force to control the ship as we flew away from the temple, never to return ever again.
