Korriban Space - Korriban System
Right now, Ahsoka, I and the Clones are in Korriban's space. We can see the planet with red surface getting closer and closer.
When we started the landing maneuver, or radars started to capt something, but it had so much interference that we couldn't hear anything.
"Major Rex, you were able to hear better this capted transmission?" I asked to Rex, one of the brave captains that survived and was very loyal to the Republic, thus, granting him a deserved promotion.
Rex answered "Negative General Kriss. Me and my mans couldn't hear anything"
I looked to Ahsoka and asked to her "And you Ahsoka?"
She denied making a negative signal with her head.
Me and Ahsoka aren't in the Acclamator Assault-Ship, who was named Hope, no, me and Ahsoka were in our respectives Jedi Star-Fighters already, ready for action.
Our Jedi Star-Fighter were the Delta-7B Aethersprite Quick Interceptor, granted for Jedi Knights, and mine was in a cyan and grey scheme colors. But, the Council Masters, after the request made by Master Skywalker, are using the ETA-2 Quick Interceptor Actis. My RD unit is a R1-D9, more known as Areone.
Me and Knight Tano wasn't able to find anymore transmissions in space, so we went down with Captain-General Rex and the Troopers Fives and Echo, a Special Operation Team for stealth and recon missions. Commander Appo and Sarge. Fox are in the command of Hope with Admiral Jenn Tempra, a very young but brilliant strategist. Her brilliance just good as the Senior Admiral of the Resolute, Wulf Yularen.

When me, Tano and the troopers landed we went directly for the King's Valley. A place with the tombs of the first Dark Lords of The Sith.
Or team treveled to the entrance of the Valley when Tano and I felt a disturbance in the Force.
I asked "So we have some Force users at the Valley. What the chances of being good people?"
"As high as Master Yoda, Knight Kriss. Rex, prepare the camouflage, use night vision when you guys enter the tombs and set your weapons at the stun bolts mode"
"Affirmative, General Tano" Said Rex nodding to her.
"Why stun bolts Ahsoka?" I asked curiously to her.
"Lightsaber users, even the starters, can deflect deadly bolts at some extent, but the stun bolts are not the same type of energy, they are electric energy, or very close to, so just experienced lightsaber users , and, being then most Jedi Masters and Sith Lords are the only ones who can absorb or deflect this type of energy" Answered her satiating my curiosity.
"Wow, a tactical mind, I like that" I said with a little smirk.
The clones at the back…
Echo:
"My impression or General Kriss tried to flirt with General Ahsoka?"
Fives:
"I don't know, maybe he is just a little crazy…?"
Echo:
"Maybe…"
After some preparation, we divided in two teams to cover more area for searching and finish this.
The first team is composed by me, Echo and Fives and the second team is composed by Ahsoka and Rex.
After we departed to cover more ground, me and the boys entered the first tomb, a very sinister tomb, from the first Siths Lord generation, this is the tomb of Ajunta Pall.
He was the Leader of the Dark Jedi, the Exiled Jedi from the 100 years of Darkness, thousands of years ago. After he landed in Korriban, he integrated the Dark Jedi with the race Sith, a race naturally capable of using the darkside of the Force, and then, he became the first Dark Lord of the Sith.
Right now Me, Echo and Fives are exploring the ruins of this tomb. We can see various artifacts like metal swords, shields, armors and statues, all of them tainted with the Darkside. "So uncivilized…" I thought when I saw this rudimentary tools…

After some good amount of time, I sensed something through the force, someone observing us…
Then, I heard quick steps coming to hour direction, and suddenly it stopped, and a voice was heard saying…
"Looking for something, Jedi…?" The unknown voice said.
This person was not very tall, some centimeters below me. It had a feminine voice to, maybe it's using boots with heels, who knows. It's clothes were all black, with a hood covering it's face and the loose robes, although large, embraced perfectly her figure, helping identify the sex of this Force user.
"Yes, maybe you could help us? We are looking for a Force user who wear black clothes and use a red lightsaber, did you saw this person?" I asked sarcastically, a trait that I got with my time with Master Skywalker.
The clones looked at me and they instantly whispered to each other "He rember me of General Kenobi…" Said Echo.
Fives answered "Yeah, I thought the same…"
The unknown person said in a sassy way "What a shame, maybe you can encounter it in the afterlife…"
Psshhhh…
She ignited her lightsaber. It was elegantly built to be used as a longsword apparently.
It has an elongated hilt, with Durasteel in the pome and in the emitter, the part of the switch was made of black painted duraplast and the rest was made of Sullustian Iron. It was a standard hilt saber, being straight, just a little elongated, for heavy blows probably, for the use of the VII form of lightsaber combat, Juyo.
Tsshhhh…
I ignited my saber too.
I gave a look to the two troopers, they nodded and went after some pillars at the sides of the hall.
She took a pose that reminded me of the First Combat Style of lightsaber: Shii-Cho, a very versatile style of combat, basically a mix of every other, Master Fisto is a master of this style. So, if she isn't using Juyo then she is an initiate at the lightsaber combat or she isn't so strong… so why the great-saber…?
Shooting this thoughts to the back of my mind, I took my standard combat pose, from the Second Combat Style: Makashi, it's very good for lightsaber duels, like now, and very effective to combat Shii-Cho.
We started to circle each other. Never side looking, always looking in each others eyes. But there is the difference between me and her, I didn't lost my patience, she has lost her's. A typical Sith, after all.
She made a heavy swing with her lightsaber, with great force, aiming a heavy hit, creating an arch of red light.
I sidestepped and she stumbled forward, because I didn't clashed with her and using this opportunity, I went for a thrust in the middle of her thorax, aiming to pierce her in the middle of her chest, but she snouched and dodged the thrust. Gaining momentum I slashed at her head, the dark acolyte then brought up her saber and parred the move.
We got distance of each other, I huffed and gave a silent signal for the clones, that not long after shooted at her, catching her offguard, stunning her, with the opening made, I ran in her direction and tackled her, after all, we needed answers, not corpses.
With her pinned to the ground and her hood off I saw her face, and wow, too beautiful to be a Sith in my opinion, but she was a darkside user and we didn't want to risk it… again.
Fives and Echo came and handcuffed her with anti-Force users handcuffs.
After we got her up, Me and Echo explored a little more of the hall, while her and Fives where in the middle of the room.

Me and the clones came back to the entrance of the Valley.
Getting to the camp quick made by us before, we saw that Ahsoka and Rex were not there yet, so we started to talk among us, telling each other stories about ourselves and bonding.
I became fascinated by the stories told by then, about Master Skywalker and Knight Tano.
Half an hour later, Ahsoka and Captain Rex came, carrying 3 lightsabers almost identical, with minor differences and all three of them were made by silver and black components.
When they get to the camp, we greeted each other and said at the same time
"We caught an Acolyte alive… / We killed three Acolytes…"
