I followed the lights not knowing where they were taking me.

"Who are you and were are you taking me?" I asked

"I'm but a guide now keep following the lights." The voice said as I continue to do as the voice said and kept walking I sudden found myself in is in a location where I recognizes when Y/n showed my team and team JNPR in the holocrons I was in the Jedi Temple corridors. Walking along the hallways I saw dead Jedi Knights and Sith Warriors, even seeing some that are still fighting until the lights stop and disappeared as I heard another voice.

"You are riddled with fear and guilt you're not a full Jedi merely a child playing pretend." The voice said.

"Who are you show yourself." I said as a pale skinned man appeared with a mask over his mouth walked from the shadows holding a red lightsaber.

"You are a Sith." I said as I pulled out the saber I picked up back in the cave.

"Yes, I'm a Sith warrior by the name of Darth Malgus" The man said.

"You manipulated whole civilizations... arranged decades of war... you're gonna tell me why." I said

"The force is conflict. The empire is conflict. The empire is war made manifest. That's why it is perfect... I fight because that is what I was made to do... beings die in war that is the price that must be paid. I serve the force. The force is conflict the two are concurrent that's why it is perfect The jedi understand the force only partially some are even powerful in it's use but they fail to comprehend the fundamental nature of the force that it is conflict that the light side and dark side exist is proof of this. Malgus said as he slowly started to walk towards me as I ignited my saber.

"But Why do you fight for the dark side?" I asked

"For conflict. Conflict drives the perfect understanding of the force the jedi do not understand this they use the force to repress themselves and others to enforce their version of tolerance, harmony they are fools. The survivors of the conflict come to understand the force more deeply their understanding evolves... that is purpose enough." Malgus said as I shook my head.

"No, I don't believe that." I said before Malgus charged at me as I barely had a chance to even defend myself as his blade collided with mine. The power behind his swings was almost demon like as I kept blocking his attacks my body felt like jelly with each swing. Thing to myself this is what a Sith warrior fights like. Malgus had me on the defensive as we battle throughout the halls as a battle rage around us Jedi vs Sith as the temple was falling all around us.

"What's the matter are you gonna fight back?" Malgus said as he forced pushed me through a wall as I landed on the ground just as I see him jump up into the air and brought it down ready to stab me but I dodged out of the way as his blade sank into the stone floor of the temple.
