Already two Empress's have fallen, I do not want mine to fall, I'd rather her rise to the Darkness and defeat it once and for all." ~The Dark Empress, Chapter I: Awoken.~ Sun rising up into the Coruscant sky a dark cloud appears out of nowhere, following the dark cloud is a ship of some sort, some sort no one has seen. Lined with Red and Black stripes, the ship seems to be moving closer into the Coruscant city which would mean, Death to all. Walking out of the Cantina with his friend Wuher MosEisley, Snake heads into the city of Coruscant, traffic crazy all day and all night. Staring into the sky he see's a ship appearing out of the sky, Snake could see part of the ship's nose diving down, he turns to Wuher confused. "Your seeing this too right?" Looking up into the sky while holding his drink, his eyes start to widen. "If you mean the ship, then yes." Walking back into the Cantina leaving Snake behind, Snake just keeps looking at the ship thinking to himself, "I remember seeing this kind of ship somewhere, but where..." He doesn't think of anything else until he see's the direction the ship is moving. His Empress, Xaya's Palace was in the middle of the ship and if he didn't do anything he knew the Empress would be dead. Heading to his Mustafar Bike Speeder he parked in the Cantina Lot, he rushes to the Empress's Palace to warn her before it's to late. After ten minutes of rushing through the Coruscant city he finally get's to the Palace but to see above him the ship has gotten much more closer. In a matter of minutes the ship would crash into the Palace killing over twenty Senators. Rushing inside the Palace he see's that most of the senators have left except for Empress Xaya. Walking upstairs he finds her looking out the window staring at the unknown ship, Walking behind her, Snake grabs her arm and tries to get her out of the palace. "Empress we need to leave right this minute! If we stay anymore longer we'll all die in this palace!" Staring at Snake, Xaya nods and follows him but behind her the ship was right at her window crashing into the palace. Bricks falling, ashes rising everywhere, it seemed unpossible for them to escape. Turning around to make sure Xaya was behind him, Snake starts to see Red smoke then it began to get hot, only one thing came to mind. "Fire!". Trying to get a view of outside, the roof above the both of them starts to collapse, one brick after another falls everywhere. Looking behind him he see's Xaya trying to get her foot out of the brick, running to her he lifts the brick up while she runs outside unharmed. Snake start's running as fast as he could to get out but the ship sinks inside the palace while the black cloud covers the palace. Red lightning shoots out of the cloud inside the palace to kill off any beings inside but for Snake he dodges every bolt. Almost out of the palace the ship starts making a hissing noise, all Snake could see was complete ashes and blank whiteness... One hour has pasted by while some Medic droid's appear in the palace, looking for any survivors or any dead. One of the medic droid's spot someone in black robe and red hood, "M.D.304, get this person on board the medic tranship, he is in serious condition." "Roger Roger." Lifting Snake into the Medic tranship, Xaya and a few other friend's appear behind her staring at the destruction of the palace while the dark cloud still remains above the palace. As the tranship drives away to the medic, a loud thunder appears from the dark cloud, red lightning appears inside the cloud while behind it, it seems to be multiplying into two, then three, then a giant cloud. Lightning shooting out of the cloud like crazy, everyone starts to take cover. Staring at the cloud, Xaya is shot by lightning while her whole body starts to glow red. Falling down on the ground, the darkness covers her while taking her body into the cloud making her disappear into total darkness..~ ~The Dark Empress, Chapter II: The Evil One~ Awakening in the medic, Snake see's only his brother Alex standing beside him. Forgetting what happened he is only worried about the Empress, where she is and why she wasn't there with him. About twenty minutes later Snake is released from the medic while he goes to find the Empress. Starting at the destroyed Palace, he looks everywhere but no sign of her. Searching through everywhere he doesn't find her, only some of the Senator's that have survived. Only place he hasn't searched was her home, arriving at her house he Force pushes the doors open but to see that she isn't there either. He knew she didn't leave Coruscant since her starfighter was still parked. Leaving her house, he see's someone in front of her house, dressed in total black as the person's hair hangs out from the hood. He could since it was a female but he knew somehow it wasn't her but inside his mind, he knew it was her. Walking away from the person he turns around while she's gone, it is as if, she just disappeared into thin air. Walking away from the house he bumps into the person falling down on the ground, he looks up to see the dark hooded person helping him up. He just stares at the hooded person while she removes the hood revealing her face. Her eyes sparkled in the sunlight, her dark hair blowed in the wind, it was as if she was a godess, Snake just stared at her confused. "Empress Xaya? Is that you?" Looking at her house she stares at Snake while she nods. Pushing aside her robe, Snake notices a Red strike on her side. "Xaya, where have you been? I've been looking all over for you!" Turning around while looking at the destroyed palace, Xaya begans to speak. "I, I don't know. All I know is I was struck by some sort of red lightning and a dark cloud hovering over me. Then I felt being lifted in the air. That is all I remember. But now, I feel like I have gained so much power! I can control anything or anyone!" Confused, Snake stands beside Xaya while he stares at the destruction of the palace, suddenly a thunderous roar came from the distance behind them. Ignoring the sound, he looks at Xaya but to see she is not there. Turning around he see's that Xaya has formed so much lightning from her whole body. Staring at Xaya and not paying attention to the lightning, one of the strikes hits Snake in the neck knocking him out cold. Xaya lands on the ground while she walks toward Snake and lays her hand on his chest, then says a spell which would make Snake under her complete control... Awakening on the ground staring up in the sky, Snake tries to stand up while looking around he see's only fire. Looking for the Empress all he see's is fire burning. Looking down from the hill he see's a statue of the Empress while hundred's of people gather around the statue and pray. As he jumps in the air and lands on the ground, he over hears someone shouting a command. Looking beside the statue he see's the Empress on a throne. Her hand's glow with lightning while she shocks one person while he falls dead. "I am your New Empress of the Sith! I have full control over all of you Minions! You are my slaves and my servants! You will obey your new Empress and no one get's harmed or killed! Now find this Zabrak and bring him to me Alive!" Showing a picture of a Male Zabrak, Snake wonders why she is looking for a Zabrak, then it hit him. The Zabrak is him.... ~To Be Continued~
