This story runs parallel with my other fic. However, this one follows the Sith where as the other follows the Jedi. There will be some overlap between the two, but each story should be able to flow indpendently of each other. This one is meant for those who want to know what the Dark Side is like. Enjoy.

Author: Xeks321
Timeframe: KOTOR Era
Characters: All OCs
Genre: Action/Drama

Summary: At the end of one war, another one is about to begin. One that could end the Republic forever. However, no one knows about it except for 7 Jedi who have sworn to stop this threat before it reaches the Republic.
Notes: This story runs parallel with my other fic.
INTRODUCTION
It was a time of great turmoil for the Sith. The Dark Lord Malak was defeated by his former master Revan. The Star Forge was destroyed, and the Republic was hunting down the last of the Sith relentlessly.
Sith Acolyte Wolf was able to escape the destruction of the Star Forge and journeyed to the Unknown Regions in defeat. There he would find a force more powerful than any the Republic has seen. Wolf would join their ranks and learn of their dark power.
They would rule entire star systems and dominate for years until a Republic Fleet invaded their territory and started a war that would last for years and test the true power of the Sith Dominion. The story of the Dominion has never been told among the Sith…until now…
This is their story…

Chronicles of the Sith: Escape
ESCAPE
Wolf did not how the Republic had found the Star Forge. He also didn’t know how they were able to get past their defenses and land several strike craft on the station. All he did know was that Lord Malak had ordered all Sith to attack the Jedi, and that was exactly what he was doing.
He was in the hangar fighting several Jedi and keeping them back. He then noticed a small group exit the hangar down one of the two ways to the central processing unit. He gave chase but was stopped by a green blade. “I am your opponent, Sith,” said the Jedi.
A smile appeared on Wolf’s lips. “You have no hope of defeating me,” replied Wolf.
“We will see,” the Jedi replied as he brought his blade up into a defensive position.
Wolf wasted no time and launched into his attack. The Jedi easily defended the attacks, but Wolf was feeling his opponent out. He wanted to know the Jedi’s true skill level. As Wolf pushed the Jedi back, he had determined his level of skill and knew how to defeat him.
Wolf brought his blade around in an attack at the mid-section. The Jedi brought his blade down and blocked the attack. The Jedi then forced Wolf’s blade up and over. Wolf allowed this to happen. As the Jedi brought the two blades directly over their heads, Wolf brought one of his hands down and used the Force to push the Jedi back.
The Jedi flew through the air and landed on his back. Wolf followed up with a Force Jump that took him high in the air. As he sailed through, he pointed his blade down. As gravity started to come into play, Wolf used the Force to guide his way down. He landed with his knee implanted in the Jedi’s stomach and a lightsaber through his chest. The Jedi screamed out in pain for a second and then went limp.
Wolf got to his feet and sensed an attack from behind. He brought his lightsaber up and across his back. He heard the crackle of electricity that followed as the two blades made contact. As the attacker tried to push Wolf’s blade into his back, Wolf used the Force to take the dead Jedi’s lightsaber. Through the Force, Wolf was able to move the lightsaber across the floor and directly behind the Jedi. He then raised his free hand up to lift the lightsaber off the ground. He made sure the Jedi could see him raising his hand.
He turned his head to look at his attacker to see a female Jedi standing behind him. The Jedi had no idea there was immediate danger behind her. The Jedi had a confused look on her face as she saw the free hand raised up with its palm open. A slow smile appeared as Wolf closed his hand into a fist. In a matter of a few seconds, the lightsaber snapped to life and shot forward. Wolf saw the green blade sticking through the Jedi. She stood for a few more seconds until she fell to the floor.
Wolf stepped over the fallen Jedi and proceeded to follow the group he saw exit the hangar. He pulled out his comlink and activated the security frequency. “All troops, some Jedi scum have escaped the hangar through corridor 12. Stop them,” he commanded.
“Yes, sir,” replied one of the many Sith troops on board the Star Forge. Wolf ran down the same hallway the group had taken. As he started on his run, he sensed immediate danger from somewhere. Wolf quickly jumped and did a back flip. As he landed on his feet, he looked up and saw a blue lightsaber flying through the air.
He turned around and saw a lone Jedi standing in the hangar. The lightsaber passed mere inches from Wolf’s head as it sailed passed him and into the outstretched mechanical hand of a Jedi. “Your kind is very persistent, I’ll give you that, Jedi,” said Wolf.
“My Master called me stubborn,” replied the Jedi.
Wolf spread his arms out as if to indicate the empty hangar. “As you can see, the Jedi are no match for the Sith. And, since I have more important things to do right now, I will give you this one chance to leave the Star Forge with your life.”
A sudden unseen blow to Wolf’s face knocked him off his feet and onto his back. “I’m sorry. Did you say something?” asked the Jedi. Wolf quickly shot up to his elbows holding his jaw. “My Master also said I never listened,” the Jedi said with a smile.
Wolf got to his feet and ignited his lightsaber. “I gave you a chance, Jedi. Now you will die.” Wolf brought his blade up and charged the Jedi.
“About time,” replied the Jedi. He also charged Wolf. They met halfway and clashed with their lightsabers up in a deadly struggle. Wolf’s face was bathed in red as he pushed with all his strength. The Jedi’s face was highlighted in blue as he also pushed.
Wolf continued to push, but he was not gaining any ground in this struggle. He then brought his back foot around in hopes of tripping the Jedi. However, this one was well trained as he saw the ruse coming. He quickly jumped up and away from Wolf. He skidded a few feet as he landed. The Jedi used the Force to slow his momentum backwards.
As the Jedi came to a halt, he then shot forward at Wolf. Wolf called on the dark energies of the Force. He then released a hail of electricity at the Jedi. The Jedi was caught off guard by the attack, but was able to bring his lightsaber up to block the attack. This stopped the Jedi’s charge, but the attack was doing nothing as the Jedi’s blue lightsaber absorbed the electrical charge.
The Jedi stood his ground as his lightsaber continued to block the attack. The Jedi then reached out through the Force and grabbed a fallen piece of debris and sent it sailing through the air. Wolf was deeply engrossed in his attack that he did not sense the object flying through the air until it impacted against his head.
The impact broke Wolf’s concentration and the lightning attack ceased. As he cleared the cobwebs from his head, he saw the Jedi charging him again. Wolf quickly brought his blade up and blocked the attack. The both launched into a series of attacks. Each attack was met with a block to be immediately followed by a counterattack. Neither one gained any ground.
Suddenly, there was an explosion and both men were thrown through the air and impacted against the back wall of the hangar. Pieces of the Star Forge started to rain down around them. Both men quickly got up and ran as a piece of burning metal landed in between them.
They stood there facing each other across the burning wreckage. The Star Forge continued to fall apart from the Republic’s barrage. Wolf deactivated his lightsaber. “It seems our duel must come to an end. But, remember this Jedi. As long as one Sith lives, the Jedi nor the Republic will ever be safe.” Wolf spun on his heels and exited the hangar as fast as his legs could carry him. He called on his wolf strength to add more speed. He continued down one of the many corridors that connected to the hangar.
He knew this station like the back of his hand. He made a few turns and ended at his destination. He was in another hangar much like the one he just left. However, this one was filled with Sith fighters. Wolf jumped into the nearest one. He quickly activated the engines and shot out of the hangar just as it was engulfed in a fiery explosion.
He checked his radar and located the nearest Sith ship. He notified the ship that he was docking. Once he landed, he jumped out of his fighter and rushed to the nearest communications console. He activated it and contacted the bridge. A young officer answered the call. “This is the Bridge,” said the young female officer.
“This is Wolf. Get us out of here now,” he commanded.
“But, sir, there are still people on the station. We have to try and get as many as we can,” replied the officer.
“Fool. I don’t care about them. The Republic will be on us any minute. I want us as far from the Star Forge and that fleet before that happens. Do you understand me?”
“Sir, what about Lord Malak?”
“Lord Malak is dead. Do I need to remind you the punishment for failure to obey orders?” Wolf asked as his eyes started to turn red.
Fear wrapped its dreadful wings around the officer as she saw the look in his eyes. “No, sir. Where should we go?”
“Anywhere but here,” he replied.
“Yes, sir.” The comm screen went black as the officer terminated the connection. Wolf exited the hangar and headed for the bridge. He felt the ship lurch forward as she sped away from the impending doom of the Star Forge.
As Wolf entered the bridge, he saw the stars turn into lines as the ship was launched into hyperspace leaving the destruction of the Star Forge and the Sith behind.
To be continued...

RE: Chronicles of the Sith: Escape (KOTOR Era fic updated: 01/14)
love the idea of parallel running fics!
i thought wolf was a cool character when you introduced him in your other fic, and i continue to like him in this. you do a FANTASTIC job of filling the chapter with multiple fights yet making every fight distinctly different from the others.
and quite a cool moment when wolf floated the lightsaber behind the unaware jedi and ignited it!
great stuff xeks321!

I concur completely with all of obi-webb's comments. This is such a cool concept. I really like the parallel stories. That thought would have never crossed my mind. Great thinking Xeks. You also do a great job writing the fight scenes.
Cheers,

I like the idea as well. I just hope that I can keep up with two stories at the same time. I thought it would interesting to see both sides of this story. It should be interesting, enjoy.
WyoJedi:
Thanks for the comments, Wyo. I just hope that I do well with other parts of the stories as this one will not be only about fights. This should be interesting. Enjoy.
talonstarshade:
Thanks for the comments. I hope the rest of this is worth the time to read as well.
Well, here is the next update. A little excitement, however, there is also a lot of set up. Enjoy.

Chronicles of the Sith: A New Master
A New Master
The Sith ship Decimator emerged from hyperspace. One of the few Sith ships to survive the destruction of the Star Forge. On board was a full crew of Sith soldiers and pilots. Also on board was a Sith Acolyte, Wolf. As he stood on the bridge of the ship he turned to the captain.
“Report,” he commanded.
The young female captain turned to her tactical officer. They had a brief conversation that Wolf could not hear. “Sir, we have safely escaped from the Star Forge. Sensors show no sign of anyone following us,” reported the captain.
“Excellent,” replied Wolf.
The captain approached Wolf. “What now, sir?” she asked.
“Now, we rebuild the Sith. As the only surviving Sith, I now hold the mantle of Dark Lord of the Sith. From here on out, you will address me as Lord Wolf. Is that understood?”
“Yes, Lord Wolf,” the captain replied while bowing.
“Good. Now, set course for the Unknown Region.”
A look of surprise and shock fell on the captain’s face. The bridge crew stopped working and turned their attention to the conversation. “The Unknown Regions?” the captain asked.
“Yes, the Unknown Region. Is there a problem with that, Captain?”
“Sir, we don’t know what is in the Unknown Regions. It is completely uncharted. We won’t know what is ahead of us or behind us. It would be…” The captain’s words were cut short by a sudden lack of oxygen. She grabbed her throat as she felt some squeezing her wind pipe shut. She gasped for breath, but none came.
“Captain, I thought I made myself clear earlier in regards to failing to follow orders. Do I need to provide you with a lesson?”
The captain tried to speak, but no words came out. She shook her head. Suddenly, the pressure on her windpipe was released. She collapsed to the floor gasping for air. Nothing tasted sweeter at that moment than fresh air.
“I didn’t think so,” said Wolf. He quickly walked over to the navigation console. He looked the crewman in the eyes. “Set a course for the Unknown Regions,” commanded Wolf.
“Yes, milord,” replied the crewman. He turned back to his console and randomly entered in the coordinates.
The captain slowly rose to her feet. As the Decimator jumped into hyperspace, Wolf approached the captain close enough so only she could hear him. “Next time it will not be a lesson. It will be punishment,” Wolf informed the captain. She simply nodded her head and left.
Wolf walked back to the view port as the hyperspace tunnel sped past the Decimator. He waited patiently for the Decimator to exit hyperspace to show him his knew empire.
COTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTS
It was quiet. It was always quiet in space. It can really get to a man how quiet it is. Then there the quietness and peacefulness of space is shattered when a Sith Cruiser called the Decimator rips a hole and returns to normal space. On the bridge stood the self-proclaimed Dark Lord of the Sith Wolf. What was before him was an unknown planet he has never seen before.
The planet itself was beautiful. The planet was mostly water, but there were three green continents visible. As the Decimator approached the planet, Wolf noticed a build up of clouds on the northern continent. “This will do,” Wolf said to himself.
Suddenly, an alarm went off. Wolf turned around and looked at the captain who was near the tactical officer. After a brief conversation, she turned her attention to Wolf. “Sir, several ships coming out of hyperspace directly behind us,” reported the Captain.
“Is it the Republic?” asked Wolf with a hint of concern.
“No, milord. The ships match now known silhouettes in the database,” replied the captain.
“What?” Wolf asked as he approached the tactical screen. The officer pulled up one of the ships on display. It zoomed onto a strange metallic object. It was as long as the Decimator. However, where the Sith ship had a lot of curved surfaces, the unknown ship had a box look to it. It had a conning tower that stood in the middle of the long surface. There were at first appeared to be wings, but they rotated in a slow circle providing gravity for the ship. Several smaller spikes stuck out of the front of the ship like antennas. The engine glow behind the ship proved that it had at least four engines propelling the strange object forward. “Pull back the image,” Wolf commanded.
The image pulled back to reveal several similar ships. Wolf changed his attention to the tactical display behind him. He watched as the ships gained on his own. Then several smaller dots suddenly appeared. Fighters. “Have they locked onto us yet?” asked Wolf.
“Negative, sir. They seem to be more interested in the fleet that is approaching us from the planet,” replied the tactical officer.
Wolf looked out the view port and saw several brown ships approaching his own. They looked nothing like his or the other ships. They were flat and wide. Wolf used his wolf senses to get a closer look at the ships. He saw several smaller objects on top of each of the ships. They appeared to be fighters. Each object left the deck of the ship two at a time. Then it suddenly dawned on him. He was in the middle of a battle that was about to commence. “Evasive action, Captain. Get us out of the kill zone,” Wolf commanded quickly.
“Yes, milord. All engines at full burn. Bring the bow down thirty degrees. Get us below this battle,” commanded the captain.
“Ma’am, both ships have fired torpedoes. Some have locked on to us,” reported the tactical officer.
“Activate the defenses. Shoot those missiles down.” The view port suddenly flashed red as turbolaser fire erupted from the gun turrets. Wolf looked ahead and saw several small balls of explosion as some missiles were destroyed by the barrage. Wolf turned to the tactical display and saw some approaching his ship from the stern.
“Keep firing,” commanded the captain.
“There is no time, ma’am. We are going to be hit,” commented the tactical officer.
The captain quickly grabbed a comlink and activated the all hands function. “All hands, brace for impact.” She deactivated the comlink and returned it to her belt. “Sound collision.” A warning klaxon blared throughout the ship. Wolf grabbed onto the rail as the missiles impacted against the mighty ship. The shields absorbed much of the blast, but some penetrated and the ship shook violently.
Wolf held on for dear life, but his head smacked the rail with a sickening thud. Wolf’s grip relaxed as darkness embraced his vision.
COTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTSCOTS
Wolf felt a sharp pain course through his cheek. Wolf jerked because of tthe sudden feeling. He felt again followed by a voice. “Milord?” asked the voice.
Wolf slowly opened his eyes. He saw the female captain standing over him. Smoke had formed a suffocating cloud near the ceiling. There was a flicker of light behind her indicating a fire had started on the bridge. “What’s our status?” Wolf asked as he got to his feet.
“Our engines are gone. We are positioning ourselves into a stable orbit around the planet,” reported the captain.
“And the battle?”
“It was over in a few minutes. The planet’s defenders were no match for the enemy fleet. There is another matter we need to discuss, sir.” A look of concern fell on the captain’s face.
“Spit it out, Captain,” Wolf said angrily. Suddenly there was a loud thud that echoed through the bridge. Wolf turned to the source of the sound as he saw the doors to the bridge closed and armed guards standing before it.
“We’ve been boarded, sir,” replied the captain. There was another loud thud as if to emphasize what the captain just said. Wolf approached the door and stood directly in front of it. He pulled his lightsaber out and activated it. A red beam grew from the hilt to its full length.
Wolf turned to the nearest Sith trooper. “Open the door,” he commanded.
The Sith trooper simply nodded and pushed a button. The door opened to reveal several men clad in black armor. A strange symbol decorated the front of the armor. Each man wore a helmet similar to that of the Sith troopers. They all stood there staring at Wolf with his lightsaber activated. Wolf walked forward and the strange men stepped back. “What’s that matter?” Wolf asked them “Are you afraid to fight me?”
“No,” came a loud and deep voice from the back. “They are not afraid. They are simply unsure of how to react.” A large man with broad shoulders and a muscular frame started to walk through the ranks of soldiers toward Wolf. As Wolf examined his face, he noticed a bald head with a black goatee around his mouth. “They have never seen someone else carry the ‘Red Blade’ except men like me.” The man stopped just short of his troops. A dark cloak engulfed his entire body. With a flick of his arm, his cloak folded back and revealed a lightsaber attached to his belt. He detached it and ignited it. A red beam shot forward from the handle.
The men suddenly bowed to the dark stranger and fell back. “As you can see, only those with power can wield the ‘Red Blade.”
“You think that just because you carry a lightsaber that you can put yourself at my level? I am a Dark Lord of the Sith. No one can equal my power,” replied Wolf. His chest swelled with pride as he said this.
A half-smile appeared on the man’s lips. “Really? Then why don’t you use it?”
“Because, I’d rather have your allegiance than your life.”
A large hearty laugh escaped the man’s lips. “You want my allegiance,” the man said with a chuckle.
Wolf’s eyes turned red with anger. “You will pay for mocking me.” Wolf quickly brought his hand up and lightning shot from his fingertips.
The strange man stood his ground. He raised his hand. The lightning seemed attracted to his hand as it wrapped around his hand and moved up his arm. It then wrapped itself around his body like a snake.
Wolf closed his fist and the lightning ceased. “Is that the extent of your power?” the man asked.
Wolf’s eyes grew a bright red. He pulled his arm back and thrust his hand forward. A shock wave created through the Force propelled itself forward. The men standing behind the stranger were suddenly pushed back several feet, but the man stood as still as a rock. Wolf looked on in confusion. “These are mere parlor tricks. You need to show me some real power before I will ever bow to you,” the man said in jest.
Wolf grabbed his lightsaber with both hands and rushed the strange man. A combination of the Force and his wolf-like speed allowed him to cross the distance in less than a second. He swung his blade down and sliced through the man. Wolf looked on with a grin until the image of the man started to fade. “You missed,” a deep voice said behind him.
Before Wolf could turn around, he was suddenly pushed forward. He sailed through the air and landed on the metallic deck with a thud. Wolf slowly got to his feet. The man stood between him and the bridge. “Too slow,” the man said.
Wolf rushed again. This time faster than before. He swung his blade down again and met resistance. The man had brought his blade up and blocked the attack. Wolf wasted no time and launched into a series of attacks. Wolf used his strength with the aid of the Dark Side to fuel his attacks. The man easily blocked or parried each strike with ease.
Beads of sweat appeared on Wolf’s forehead as he continued his relentless assault. The man maintained his ground and blocked each attack. Wolf’s strength started to diminish. He could feel himself getting weaker with each strike. Wolf then noticed one of the weapons the soldiers were carrying lying on the floor behind the stranger.
Wolf feinted to the stranger’s left. The man took the bait and swung his blade in hopes of beating Wolf there. Wolf then sailed over the man’s head and landed next to the weapon. He picked it up and pointed it at the man’s back. He then pulled the trigger and several bolts of energy erupted from the weapon and raced towards the man. Each round impacted against the man’s cloak.
Wolf continued to fire until he heard a click and the weapon was empty. The man still stood there with several holes in his cloak. He turned around and faced Wolf. “Resorting to less than honorable tactics I see,” the man said.
The weapon was forced from Wolf’s hands by unseen eyes. It hung in the air in front of him for a few seconds before it was crushed into useless metal. “Men who wield the ‘Red Blade’ have no use for such weapons,” the man said.
Wolf slowly got to his feet and stood before the dark man grabbing deep breaths. His chest rose and fell with each deep breath he took. He then got to one knee and bowed before the dark man. “I can see that I am no match for you. I surrender to your will,” Wolf said.
The man stood there for a few seconds. He then deactivated his lightsaber and connected it to his belt. “What should we do with him, Master?” the man asked.
A dark and evil voice spoke from all around Wolf. “He has surrendered to you. He is yours to do with as you please,” the voice said.
Wolf looked around and could not find the source of the voice. “Yes, Master,” replied the dark stranger. “Rise,” the man said. Before Wolf could comply, he was lifted into the air and hung helplessly a few feet above the ground. The red glow in his eyes had faded. He looked into the black eyes of the man who had defeated him. “I have a use of one such as you. However, you have to prove yourself worthy to be my disciple. Is that understood?”
“Yes, Master,” replied Wolf.
“Now, a friendly reminder of your failure.” The man ignited his lightsaber and brought it up. With a quick motion, he made a diagonal slash from Wolf’s left shoulder down across his chest and ending at his right hip. Wolf screamed out in pain. The invisible force holding him aloft suddenly released him and he collapsed to the floor. “Failure is never an option. Now, get up and look upon your new master, Sirus.
Wolf managed to get to his knees and bowed deeply to his new master. “I look forward to what you can teach me, Master.”
A smile crept on Sirus’ face as he observed Wolf. One of the troops approached Sirus. “Milord, what shall we do with the rest of them?” he asked indicating the bridge crew and troops that stood with their hands up in surrender.
“You know our ways,” replied Sirus.
“Yes, milord.” The troop motioned to the soldiers behind Sirus. The filled past the two men and into the bridge. The door closed behind them.
Wolf maintained his bow as he heard blaster fire and screams emanating from the bridge. “Now, follow me. We have a planet to conqueror,” commanded Sirus.
“Yes, Master,” Wolf replied as he got to his feet and followed his new master. The door to the bridge hissed open as Sirus’ troops left the bridge. No one else followed them.
Wolf boarded the strange craft that Sirus and his men had arrived on. As they left the hangar of the Decimator, Sirus activated a communications link with one of the many ships that were moving into an orbit above the planet.
“Yes, sir,” came a voice through the speaker.
“Wipe that ship from the face of the galaxy,” commanded Sirus.
“As you command,” replied the voice. Several ships moved into positions surrounding the Decimator. They then opened fired and turned the once proud Sith ship into spare parts that were scattered to the solar winds. Wolf watched as his old life was destroyed. He then turned to see his new life ahead of him in the form of a strange and powerful man known as Sirus. The Horseman of War.
To be continued...

I totally agree with DarkMan77... Sirus is a very interesting character. I can't wait to see how this all plays out, especially with the parallels in your other story. Great job!
Cheers,
Wyo

Thanks for all of the comments. As I am trying to get the two stories to the same point, I have the next update here. Enjoy.

Chronicles of the Sith: The Four Horsemen
The Four Horsemen
The shuttle landed on the planet surface. Landing craft from the rest of the fleet had already landed and the troops deployed. They were setting up their base camp when Sirus’ shuttle arrived.
As he exited the shuttle, he looked around to take in the activities that were taking place. Generators were being built and fueled. Tents were being erected. Defensive positions were being scouted and prepared. Everything seemed to be going according to plan. A soldier approached Sirus and saluted. “Sir, the rest have gathered in the command tent,” the soldier reported.
“Very well.” His new disciple approached from behind and stood next to Sirus. “Take this man to the Black Knights area. Make sure he is taken care of,” ordered Sirus.
“As you command,” the soldier said with a bow. He then turned to Wolf. “If you would follow me, milord.” Wolf straightened himself and followed the soldier. Sirus then turned to one of the soldiers standing behind him.
“Deploy our forces according to the plan. Let me know when you are ready, Commander,” said Sirus.
“Yes, sir,” replied the Commander. He turned to the men standing behind him and began issuing orders.
Sirus marched along the smooth wet grass towards the central tent. As he passed by groups of troops, they all stood and bowed. Sirus paid not attention to this as he was used to this sort of treatment. All members of nobility were treated as such. However, not all could wield the power he could.
As he approached the tent, the two guards standing at the entrance saluted and allowed Sirus to pass. As he stepped through the threshold, he was greeted by the sweet smell of Zamil coffee. The best in the known galaxy. In the center of the tent was a holographic projection of the immediate area. Lines of red and blue outlined friendly and enemy forces. One man and two females stood around the table. Each wore a cloak that wrapped around them like a blanket. On the back of the cloak was the mark of the Dominion.
Sirus approached the table and stood at the end. “Good day,” he said to his three companions.
“Good day, Sirus. Took you long enough to get here,” replied one of the females. She stood directly across from Sirus. She had long white hair that hung down to the middle of her back. She had a very slender form and oval shaped face. Her eyes were as blue as the sky. Most men fell to her beauty before the fell under her blade.
“I am sorry, Shasta. I found something interesting on that strange ship,” replied Sirus.
“What is it?” asked the only other male in the room. He stood to Sirus’s right. He was not as tall as Sirus nor as muscular. He had a medium built and a scaly bald head. He looked reptilian from a distance, but he was more human than reptile. Sharp teeth lined the inside of his mouth which hide a forked tongue. His hands ended with sharp talons instead of fingernails. Underneath his cloak were two huge wings which could lift him up several feet in the air. He rarely used them as he was as deadly as Sirus with a blade.
“I have possibly found a disciple, Drakis,” replied Sirus.
“Impossible. All of the possible disciples have been integrated into the Black Knights. There are no others left in the galaxy,” replied the last female in the group. She had short black hair that covered half her face. Her eyes were a deep blue and a face that made men melt under her gaze. She was just as slender as Shasta. However, her eyes slanted a little at the edges and she a light complexion to her skin.
“I know, Sin. However, I have already sent him to the Black Knights. He is truly quite powerful. If only he would tap into it, he could be stronger than Dra-Gon,” replied Sirus.
“I don’t think Dra-Gon will like this very much,” said Shasta.
“I think it is time Dra-Gon had some competition. He has become too proud of his abilities,” stated Drakis with a hiss.
“That is true. But the Master seems to think that he is the best choice to become a Horsemen,” said Sin.
“He has yet to prove himself to us to earn that right,” said Sirus.
“My Lords, may I enter?” asked a male voice outside.
“Enter, Dra-Gon,” replied Shasta.
The man entered the tent. He looked to be no older than twenty standard years. He had cropped blonde hair and green eyes. He was starting to develop a muscular structure similar to Sirus’, but he still had a long way to go. He wore a black cape that flowed behind him like a black river. On the cape was the mark of the Black Knights. Two blades engulfed in flames crossing each other in the center. Very few people have seen the mark and live to tell about it. “Some strange man was brought to our tent by your order, Lord Sirus. I demand an explanation,” stated the young man.
Sirus’ back was still to the young man. “You demand?” he asked.
“Yes, Lord Sirus. I demand to know why you have allowed a man we know nothing about in the presences of my Black Knights,” replied the young man.
“I see.” Suddenly, the young man was thrown outside of the tent by an unseen force. Sirus turned on his heels and stormed out of the tent. The rest followed him. As Sirus stepped outside, the young man was lying on his back. Sirus towered over the man as he lay there. “How dare you demand anything from me,” said Sirus. “I do not answer to you, nor do you have the pleasure of questioning my orders or decisions, Dra-Gon.”
Dra-Gon got to his feet and stood toe-to-toe with Sirus. He had to look up to look into Sirus’ eyes. “Do you forget who my true master is?” asked the man with a sly grin.
Sirus smiled in return. Then the young man was picked up by an unseen hand and was held suspended in mid-air. “You may be the Master’s only apprentice. But that does not grant you the title and rank of one of us. Your skill is impressive, I will grant you that. But, you are no match for the likes of me,” replied Sirus.
Dra-Gon showed no fear as he looked down at Sirus. “I have grown more powerful than you can possible imagine. With Master Sera-“ Dra-Gon didn’t even finish his sentence as he was suddenly thrown violently through the air. He landed with a wet thud and skidded a few feet before coming to a stop on his side.
“How dare you speak his name,” said Sirus. “Apprentice or not, you are never allowed to speak his name.” Sirus approached the man lying on the ground. As he did, he ignited his lightsaber and the crimson blade shot out. He stopped just short of Dra-Gon and pointed the tip of the blade at Dra-Gon’s throat. “The penalty is death.”
“Go ahead,” said Dra-Gon. “Then you will feel my Master’s wraith,” Dra-Gon said with a look in his eye that said I dare you.
“Have it your way then,” Sirus pulled his arm back ready to strike. As he thrust the blade towards Dra-Gon’s throat, a loud voice pierced the air and stayed his hand.
“ENOUGH!!!!” cried a voice that echoed across the landscape. Sirus stopped his blade just short of its intended target. “We do not have time for these petty squabbles. Lord Sirus?”
“Yes, my liege,” replied Sirus.
“I approve of your decision to place the stranger in the Black Knights. That is where he belongs and he certainly would give my apprentice a challenge,” said the disembodied voice.
“Thank you, my lord,” Sirus said with a smile.
“Dra-Gon?”
“Yes, Master,” Dra-Gon said as he got to his knees and bowed. Lightning erupted from the sky and struck the young man. He fell to the ground in convulsions of pain. Everyone looked up and couldn’t see a cloud in the sky.
“You have much to learn my foolish apprentice. I may have decided to train you; however, that does not elevate you to one of my Horsemen. Never again will you approach them in such a manner. Do you understand?” Another bolt of lightning combined with the previous and struck the young man as if to emphasize the point.
“Yes, Master,” Dra-Gon cried out in between cries of pain. Then the lightning ceased and all was quiet.
“We have work to do and I suggest you get to it,” commanded the Voice.
“Yes, My Lord,” the Four Horsemen said as they bowed. Then all four turned and headed back to the tent.
A soldier rushed to help Dra-Gon to his feet. As he picked up the still smoldering man, a red blade of energy suddenly pierced the man’s chest. “Don’t ever touch me, peasant,” Dra-Gon said through clenched teeth. The red blade disappeared and the man fell limply to the ground. Dra-Gon pointed to the nearest soldier, “You, clean this up,” he ordered.
The soldier bowed and grabbed two more soldiers who helped pick up their dead comrade. Dra-Gon proceeded back to his tent with his pride damaged but not destroyed. He would make Sirus paid for this insult. If he did it through his new protégé, then so be it.
To be continued...

Very interesting. I love the Sith. They are so cold and brutal. You have done a great job here, I especially like Dra-Gon. He's a very intriguing character. Keep up the good work.
Cheers,
