Chapter 4.7: Attunement
(Weeks later)
(Typhon, Jedi temple)
(Jaesa PoV)
I walked up to the majestic door that once belonged to the Grand master of the Jedi in front of me and had to repress a shudder as I felt the raw power slowly ebbing from the walls. Slowly pressing the button at the side of said door, I waited. The small beep it let out was lost to me as I waited for 'him' to reach out for me.
I delved into the force and waited…waited….ahhh. I didn't suppress the moan of pleasure as I felt him once again touch me through the force once more. It was a probe, to see if I was an enemy or ally, something wholly automatic after everything we had been through, I didn't mind the caution and it did two purposes in my case.
One it let 'him' know that I was here after his summons and the door would open in less than a second. Two, I got to feel his strong presence in the force, the presence that left me breathless every time.
*Shh* The door slid quietly open and I strode in with purpose, when you were summoned you had to obey. Stepping over the threshold into the door, my spine shivered as the power intensified once more.
I should have known what to expect after all this time, but it was still like I was stepping into another world as I crossed into the room. The raw power of his presence was 10 fold what I felt outside…and he was still holding back~
I felt my body warm as my eyes laid on him. He had no shirt on, such a tempting sight. I wanted him, now. My desire reached out and I had no illusion that he couldn't feel my intent through the force. My connection to the dark side strengthened to an unprecedented degree and I was sure my eyes turned red.
But why wouldn't they? He was my desire… my reason to live… my everything~.
Even with the onslaught of my deep emotions he kept his face calm; there wasn't even a flicker in his force signature as mine brushed against it. I would have been disappointed had I not know the passion of the desire he had for me.
But I had seen it first-hand… felt it… loooooved~ it.
No, he loved me, probably more than I thought possible, he just had to hold back right now. He had sent for me. Possible a mission, maybe some form of training. I may have become a Darth, but he would always be my Master. Before he was the Emperor, before he was the Wrath, before anything else.
Maybe after though, when I was done with his mission I could get a reward~ Just that single though brought a wide smile to my lips. I didn't bother to reign in my emotions as I continued to walk into the room and then fell to a knee before the bed.
He sat on it upright, his eyes not leaving me, they shimmered a dark red as they regarded me. It felt like he was devouring me with his eyes as I bowed my head. My heated voice sounded sultry, but I didn't care as I put every bit of the desire I held into my next word. "Master~."
There was a beat of quiet for a few seconds as I heard the sound of his breathing in front of me, calm, quiet, dangerous~. Finally he spoke up, his breathy execution turning me on even further. "Jaesa." The shiver went down my spine once more at the address.
It wasn't the old 'Apprentice' that I so wanted to hear from him, something I craved. But I had 'officially' moved on from that position and would as such be called by my name, title or rank. Though I had convince him to do a few role plays in our alone time, Master~ and Apprentice~. I had to stop myself from giggling in glee.
"You may rise." My head lifted as I took in his glorious form once more, but I did not rise from my kneeling position.I drunk in his form for a few more seconds letting my thoughts run wild before I once again focused.
That he allowed me such indulgences showed the depths of his generosity. "You called Master~"
He gave a small nod as he reached to his side. I hadn't noticed the box off to the side until he reached for it. I knew what it was of course, his personal lightsaber case. Expertly crafted, I never truly found out where he got it.
Though he had many weapons from downed Jedi and Sith stupid enough to challenge his might locked away in the cargo hold, the three inside were his most prized possessions, the ones he had personally crafted, power unlike anything a normal sith or Jedi could handle.
My eyes stayed locked onto his hands as they unclipped the case and slowly took out his two personal lightsabers. I admired the design as he brought them to bear before me. "You have come a long way Jaesa, no longer the naïve Padawan that Noman Karr sort to use."
I felt bile make its way up my throat at that thought of that schutta. Such a waste of a person, pretending to be a master when he was less than an insect easily stomped beneath my feet. The only good he ever did for me, was lead me to my true master. But after that he had served his purpose, all he could be used for was my own accession to master's side. The first test of many to show my undying loyalty to him, something I would gladly do again and again and again.
But he continued oblivious to my thoughts or was he? "You have grown much in the time since then, surpassing my expectations one after the other." A small smile played on my lips as I relished the praise. 'I would always go above and beyond for you'. I wanted to say those words, but I didn't need to, he knew, I was sure of it.
"From my apprentice, you have become a Lady of the Sith and then a Darth. Your power has grown lovely to see." The dark side swelled around me at the words, if he didn't finish what he had to say soon I wasn't sure that I wouldn't just jump him here and now, I couldn't wait….I didn't want to wait.
"It has come time for that power to once again increase." My thoughts paused at the words for a second. He would be training me to access more power? My thoughts burst in ecstasy as I listened to his words with rapture. More power! I needed it! I wanted it! Anything to get me closer to him!
He could see my excitement, probably felt it through the force as well, I couldn't keep it contained. He gave a small chuckle as he held out his lightsabers. "Use your power Jaesa, what do you see here? What do you see through the force."
My eyes locked onto the lightsabers in front of me as I willed my special connection to the force to activate. I had never had trouble with the power, it was just an instinct that I learned early on my time on Alderaan to access.
Of course it got more powerful when I trained to be a Jedi. But it didn't truly begin to flourish until I was under him. He truly let my power to develop, so that I could find anyone that would try to lie to me…to us.
From what I could once see, the power had become even stronger over time. I could not just see the intentions of a person, I could see their attunement to the force, one of the reasons I would be going to recruit force sensitives in the future was because of this fact.
I could now reach out into the galaxy and find those with potential, those that would help us ascend to dominance. My powers locked onto the lightsabers and I felt the familiar shudder roll down my spine.
I had looked at them before from a distance with my powers, trying to understand what put them above the rest, what caused them to be so special that none could stand before them. But this was the first time I was told to do an in-depth look, to truly understand them. But that was the thing; I already knew the signature they were giving off in the force.
Like every Sith and Jedi that gave a presence, their lightsabers would also give off a unique glow. The crystals inside of them, were alive, maybe that was why no matter what color you obtained, in the end the lightsaber would change ever so slightly to fit the person.
My own lightsaber hadn't always been the purple it was today, it had been numerous colors from yellow, to blood red when I bled it, finally settling to purple in recent years. But that was the thing, the lightsabers before me, the ones that surpassed any I had seen before, even ones enhanced by sith alchemy.
They felt just like her master…no they were her master. They weren't their own presence in the force; they were one and the same. "H-how?" He gave a small chuckle "I knew you would figure it out quickly." My heart beat speed up at the words my entire focus on him as he finally stood up as I craned my neck to look upwards.
His right hand came to rest on my shoulder as I stared into his the abyss that was his eyes, as if they could hold the entire galaxy within. "Jaesa, it is time I taught you how to attune your lightsaber, to ascend it."
