	Here we are. The beginning of the end. My opus if you will. For those not caught up so far, here are the links to Volume I and Volume II. I will be sending out PM's soon based on the last list for Vol. 2. Please PM if you no longer want to be on the list. Second, this one's going to be different. Not nearly as long posts for each chapter. And this is a total revamp of the last ends of Sacrifice, so if you like the LOTF just the way it is, go no further. Shall we begin again? Current PM list from Case of Mary Jane : Jade_eyes Irish_Jedi_Jade dancing_star mara jade rox Maul Brady Twin_Saber VaderLVR64 Alkibiades dm1 Lady_Jade MaraJade4S Meredith_Kenobi Myriad_Daydreams Red_Baronesse SithGirl132 Tatooine_Ghost The Purpose of Mara Jade Skywalker Volume III Prologue Mara Jade Skywalker is home now. She is back from a journey into another galaxy and out of another being altogether. Lessons were taught simultaneously by both Mara and her host, Mary Jane Skyler, a resident of Mobile, Alabama on the planet Earth. The two had formed a unique kinship while each controlled the other from inside of Mary’s body. During six Earth weeks, Mara had investigated the incident where Mary had succumbed into a coma due to a head injury. Mara Jade was put to the task of finding out the reason why Mary Jane had reverted into herself. The answers presented themselves and, thus, Mara Jade was rewarded. Inside of a dream, Mara Jade was transported to Death’s realm called The Sunless Lands–a place which both defied and defined Time. Through Infinity’s path, Mara Jade emerged in her own flesh and blood inside of her own galaxy. Yet, not at the same exact moment. There was but one difference. One changed detail would alter the course of the coming events of her previous time. A time when she had previously died at the hands of her own kin. She now knew that path while taking a new one. The Universe has given Mara Jade Skywalker an extraordinary gift of a single lifetime. The chance to change her future with knowledge of the past. Part 1: The Second Chance Well, here I am, thought Mara Jade Skywalker. The here in her reference was her own galaxy. The Hapes Cluster. She took time in looking about the cockpit of the Stealth X she now sat in. She sat in silence, floating in space. She breathed in synthetic air, now savoring it’s smell after decades of despising it. She listened to the beeps and whistles of various alerts of the ship. It was too real to be a dream. Thirty standard minutes ago, a dream was where she had been. It was shared by another human. Mary Jane Skyler. At first, Mara had full control of Mary’s body. She had trouble remembering who she was, yet she contained none of Mary’s memories. After a drug-induced hallucination, Mara Jade remembered. She was inside another galaxy. Another planet. Earth. Mobile, Alabama. Primitive, yet enlightening. She found the system to be a world with similar problems and emotions as worlds in her own neighborhood. Mara and Mary experienced a friendship unlike any other they would ever encounter in their lives. They both contained the same qualities along with the same weaknesses. Some traits were heightened in one and less in the other. Mara now even remembered how to speak like Mary. Mara then remembered other events during her month and a half stay. Mara and Mary both had a son named Ben, as well as two husbands named Luke. Well, in Mary’s case, ex-husband. Mara remembered the owner of the nightclub Mary worked at and the Russian mob owner, Deke. She remembered Deke’s son, Victor, with whom she had many run ins with. She knew of Deke’s violent nature as he grisly tortured a traitor. She recalled Mary’s son having bully problems which she allowed Benjamin to solve on his own with her help. She thought of Jeremi Owen who had a hidden desire for Mary that he was forced to keep hidden until it had to be revealed. Why do I remember all of this? Why am I suddenly back in my galaxy? Alive. She definitely did not come back as a Force ghost. Which meant that she has not died. Yet. The Mother and Wife portion of her make-up decided that the answer did not matter. Her Emperor’s Hand side questioned everything. She replayed the conversation she had with Hapan Control in her mind. We don’t like surprises even from allies. She somehow reverted back in time. The time before her death. Why this particular point of time? She already knew the outcome. Or...one possible outcome. The words of the lively Death echoed in Mara’s memory. Many choices. Different results. Past. Present. Future. Three terms that define Time as one. Had her death been a fluke? Or was it supposed to happen at the same exact moment in every different time line? Did it happen in every time line? Perhaps there were different planes of existence where she hadn’t died at that moment. Inside the Stealth X, things were happening the same way as before. Or were they? She now remembered originally she asked Hapan Control the whereabouts of their Queen Tenel Ka. She also put it on record the mysterious Sith ship that her son had found. Neither had happened this time. Was she changing the design of events by not acting in the same way? Could only one subtle difference change the outcome of any particular event? Or would there need to be multiple changes? Remember to remember the blade. She reached inside her flight suit and found the receiver to the transponder she had hidden inside her old Imperial vibroblade. She had given the blade to Ben for the purpose of tracking his location. This was how she knew of her son’s secret assassination mission on Vulpter. She checked the readout and it gave cryptic codes. She had to strain to remember the Aurabesh key she put the codes in and then she had a series of coordinates. A series. That meant the blade was in transit. Ben had the blade with him and he was coming for her. If there was a feeling combining relief and concern, Mara Jade was experiencing it now. The area where the coordinates indicated were a few hours away. Towards the edge of the Inner Rim, if her memory served. It didn’t matter what length of time it took. Her boy was coming to help his mother. Damn him for disobeying her demand that he stay on Coruscant. Bless him for being her son and acting on his own. A true Jade Skywalker. She wished she could be with him– What in kriffing hell am I saying? I can be with him! She mentally kicked herself as she began using the Force to feel her son’s presence. She savored the feeling of the Force through her, and in no time, she found him. Her Ben. It took all of her strength to avoid the tears of joy she felt forming in her eyes just in the act of touching her son’s mind for the first time in weeks. She wanted to hold on to that feeling for an eternity but her joy quickly turned to amusement. The shock from Ben in her finding out that he wasn’t on Coruscant was the equivalent of her catching him with an ale at the nearest tapcaf. She projected assurance that he was not in trouble. In fact, she thought he could help. She sent him instructions to proceed to Hapes. He acknowledged hesitantly, yet obediently. She had the idea that if the change in her inaction with Hapan Control wasn’t enough to divert plans of her death, then adding Ben into the mix would further alter destiny’s way. What was not escaping her at that moment after Ben released contact with her, was the fact that there was someone else who she desperately needed to feel in the Force. Mara gently opened herself up to the Force. She went to the space where a special bond was placed. It also had been dormant for the same several weeks. Too long. She wondered at how she had survived before that bond. And it embarrassed her that she could give it up just because of her stubbornness. Her mind traveled back to Coruscant. Into him. And there he was. Mara Jade Skywalker’s Force bond with Luke Skywalker was reconnected. This time, she failed to stop her tears from overflowing. She sat back in the Force allowing herself to caress her mental touch against his. She absently projected a wave of joy mixed with regret. His response did not meet hers in the same way. At first, she felt his anger and frustration towards her. He must have already read my note. Then, when he felt her overwhelming joy and regret, he began to feel guilty. Typical, Farmboy. Where are you? He projected the question. Hapes Cluster, she answered back through the Force. Are you finished hunting? Even through the Force she could detect his subtle sarcasm. She almost hesitated to send back, Not yet. Ben is coming to help me. More anger from her husband. She then considered, Why not? The more, the merrier. We can make this a family affair. A Skywalker family tradition. We always said we needed more things to do together. How about a game of Kill Our Sith-In-Training Nephew and Cousin? She made the decision to project an open invitation for her husband to join her. This will be the new choice that will save my life. Going after Jacen alone wasn’t just a mistake. It was egotistical. That decision was made by a former Emperor’s Hand who had all the confidence in the world. Maybe more than she deserved. Now, she will make a new choice made by a mother and wife. She would die someday. But not today. Luke’s inner voice rang through her head with confusion. What are we doing once I get to you? We’re going to confront your Sith nephew. Together. The Stealth X shook suddenly from a shot of turbo-fire. The blast hit the shields but it still propelled the craft forward out of control. She cursed and took control of the yoke and righted the ship. She made a turn to see her attacker but there was nothing. She checked the readouts and there was no craft in the vicinity. She then remembered what was next in her original time. Someone was hiding within the Force. “Jacen!” she spat the name out. Another familiar voice echoed inside her mind. It certainly was not the sweet cheery Southern drawl of Mary Jane Skyler. No. Not Jacen. Someone else from your past. Lumiya!

	I'm hoping here that once Mara confronts Lumiya, she'll be able to conclude how truly duped and ill Jacen is, and her desire to kill him will change to a desire to save him. But hope always springs eternal with PT, doesn't it? -----signature----- Brain: Now, Pinky, if by any chance you are captured during this mission, remember you are Gunther Heindriksen from Appenzell.

	Stellar start, madman!!! Lumiya huh? Luke's reaction was very much realistic and believable, but that note--I just can't figure out ... foot, I'd be mad at such a cryptic note and then her just taking off. Those LOTF authors just do not understand the ramifications of being Mara and Luke, soulbonded. Good thing there's fanfic. Definitely keep me on your PM train.

	mara_jade_rox - Comparing me to Zahn is the ultimate compliment. Thank you so much. Makes me wonder how someone like me and others can get into Mara's character so well, yet the professional writers outside of Zahn really didn't get her. Fan of the stories vs Fan of the Green! And yes, this is not the Sacrifice you are used to. Further differences to come. PonyTricks - Nice speculation there. Read on and there will be much more insights than you thought. And they're so simple that you won't believe it. dancing_star - If this is your favorite post, wait...there's more. Thanks for the praise. Skywalker277 - Thanks for being excited about this. Thank the Maker that there's a handful who still are. Consider yourself added to the PM list. dm1 - You're welcome in the notifying. And don't worry about Lumiya now - trust me. Maul Brady - Yes, back in the game. With one difference that will make a ton of more differences. Thanks for following! Jade_eyes - Yes, the note. Even when I read that the first time, I was pondering why our Mara would do something that cold to her true love. As far as Luke's reaction, I didn't want it all lovey dovey because to his point of view, she hasn't been gone a month and a half. And about those LOTF authors - they don't have to understand the bond. They have to squeeze in the plot even if it risks true characterization. That's what I'm doing here; having Mara acknowledge her OOC actions but this time she will make things right. Jaina_and_Jag - Ah ha! A newbie to the bunch. Welcome and thanks for reading. Yes, it's original but sometimes I think it's so original that some shy away from it. I'm a victim of my own creativity. Maybe not. Thanks for saying my Mara is spot on. I assume you would like to be added to the PM list. PM me on your PM status. Thanks again to all, and I will try to get Part 2 up next week. Darth Real Life had kidnapped me this last week. -----signature----- It's been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America. - Barack Obama

	Part 2: A New Battle of Hands Perfect, Mara Jade thought to herself. Not thirty minutes since I’ve been back into my galaxy and already an enemy of mine finds me. In her mind, a voice called to her. It was not unlike a voice from Mobile, Alabama had done not so long ago from Mara’s point of view. “Is there a reason you are hovering in space like a sitting mynock?” Mara answered as quick as she could. “I’m waiting for you.” “Mara, I can see through that. I could sense your anger from a light-year away. You cannot hide from me.” Mara looked over at her comm and saw that there was no channel that Lumiya was talking through. When Mary Jane spoke through her, her words sounded like Mara’s own thoughts within her mind. Lumiya’s voice sounded as if she heard it through a comm channel. The sound of her voice had reverberation from echoing inside a ship. A Sith ship! Mara now remembered her encounter with the mysterious ship back on Hesperidium. It knew her. It said that she knew the Dark better than Lumiya. At the time, Mara hadn’t thought of what that could mean. She was too busy focusing on Lumiya’s trail then. If it knew her and Lumiya as equals... She wanted to try an experiment but spoke to Lumiya first. “We’ll see who’s hiding from whom.” Mara fired the repulsors to thrust forward quickly. Follow me, if you can, her thought directed at the ship. The chase began. Mara glanced at the rear cam and, sure enough, the shiny, smooth texture of the Sith ship was in view behind her. And it was matching her every move. Mara tried a series of rolls and sharp turns that any other ship would have had trouble keeping up with. Not this ship. “That thing can move,” Mara muttered. Lumiya’s voice beamed with confidence, “Yes, it can. Much better than yours. You’re wasting your time, Mara.” “I don’t know, I’m having a blast right now.” “I’m not speaking of your little jaunt. I meant you are wasting your time in being here. You intended to harm one of your own kin, Mara. Almost as if it were another mission. How Emperor’s Hand of you.” Mara shut down the forward repulsors and performed a tight spin to head in the reverse direction. She kept the repulsors on neutral to hover. Before her, framed by the Stealth X’s viewport, was the Sith ship. It still looked like no other ship that Mara had ever seen. The ship repeated her action of standing still in front of her. It looked as if it floated with no apparent source of propulsion. She could not even make out a viewport anywhere. Regardless of the lack of seeing one, she knew Lumiya could still see her. Mara replied, “I no longer want to harm my nephew.” “Nonsense. We sensed your anger not long ago. Yet...now, there is only confusion from you. What happened? Did you suddenly have a change of heart?” “An epiphany, really.” Mara set the controls to set up the active repulsors for a hard thrust if she needed them in a hurry. “That’s a pity,” Lumiya answered. “Seems you are no longer the Emperor’s Hand that I thought you were.” “Glad to disappoint you.” Mara started diverting power to the forward shields in case those were needed. If her theory was correct, she wouldn’t. She thought she had prepared for Lumiya’s anticipated action in secret. Until... “I know what you’re doing, Mara. Just like a Jedi to set up for defense instead of taking the initiative. Again, very unbecoming of a Hand.” “Newsflash, Lady, I haven’t gone by the Emperor’s Hand title in over three decades.” “Your age is showing it.” Mara chuckled, “Hey, at least half of my body doesn’t have a manufacturer’s logo on it.” “Nice to see your wit before you die. You may or may not know that I can fire anything I want from this ship. All I have to do is think of it.” “I didn’t know, but take your best shot.” Lumiya sniffed, “You don’t take martyrdom well, Jade. So be it. It’s been a pleasure, Hand. Ship...fire.” Mara held her breath for a few seconds to embrace what could come ejecting out of the Sith ship. Nothing happened. Lumiya repeated louder, “Ship...fire!” I cannot. “What? Why?” The other is not the aggressor. Mara laughed not just at the ship’s reaction, but also at her correct assumption. “For a Sith ship it sure seems to be a mighty pacifist.” Lumiya reverted to scolding the ship. “Why can’t you do as I say?” The other knows Darkness as well. She is not the enemy. Mara quipped, “Couldn’t have said it better myself.” Lumiya said, “I don’t understand,” though it was uncertain whether she directed the statement at the ship, Mara, or to herself. Mara supplied an answer. “This is not just any Sith ship, Lumiya. It may have been made by the Sith, but it was not used for their purposes.” After Lumiya gave no reply, Mara tried another tactic to answer her. Mara addressed the ship aloud. “Ship, what is your purpose?” Once I fought. Now, I educate and protect. “By educate, you mean train?” Correct. I teach apprentices to fight. “Lumiya, don’t you understand? You are in a Sith training ship.” Lumiya spat out a question. “Ship, who are your apprentices?" You are. “And Mara?” She is one as well. “So you cannot harm her no matter what I demand of you?” Unless it is for protection, as before. “Before what?” Mara answered, “On Hesperidium, when I was attacking you, it was trying to protect. If I don’t attack you, it won’t hurt me. “Sithspawn!” Lumiya cursed. I am sorry, but I have no spawn. Mara covered her mouth to stifle a hard laugh. Lumiya ignored the ship’s remark and continued to question. “I have already been trained, as has Mara.” You were trained by the artificial one. Mara added, “That would be Vader. Funny how both teacher and student became half human.” Lumiya pleaded, “That is true, ship. But, how is that different from Mara’s training?” She was taught stealth and assassination techniques with precision. “So was I, ship,” Lumiya defended. The other one was taught by a true Sith Lord. Mara tried to add, “That would be Palpa–” “Shut up! I know! Vader was also an excellent teacher, ship.” He taught out of hate and aggression. The artificial one hated so deeply that his lessons were based on his reckless emotions. “How do you know all of this, ship. You were on Ziost all this time.” I know from this one’s offspring. The one who freed me. Ben, Mara thought. He brought this mysterious ship out of its dormancy on the planet where the Sith had once congregated. Ziost. Lumiya’s voice started to contain the same confidence as before. “That is of no matter. The next Sith leader will rule without Vader’s forgiveness.” “And who do you see in that position, Lumiya?,” Mara interjected. “My nephew? You’re manipulating him into something he’s not.” “No! He’s manipulating himself into what he was destined to be.” Mara shot back, “An animal lover? That’s the Jacen Solo I remember. It’s true he has never been the same since his time with Vergere. He was once full of peace.” “Vergere’s philosophy was not lost on myself and I had incorporated that into Jacen. He will use that knowledge when he is a true Sith.” “A true Sith who wants peace? That’s a contradiction in terms.” “A common Jedi response, Mara. You forget to see all angles of the situation. Being a Jedi has made you weak.” “On the contrary, I believe it has opened my eyes.” “Yet, your focus is only on one now.” “Unless that focus is on my nephew trying to make my son into a Sith. That will never happen.” “You misunderstand. Jacen will be a different Sith altogether. He only needs to make his sacrifice.” “A sacrifice?” Mara questioned. Lumiya quoted, “‘He will immortalize his love.’” “What on Earth are you talking about?” There was complete confusion in Lumiya’s voice when she asked, “What is Irth?” “Never mind. You’re saying that Jacen has to make a sacrifice to immortalize his love and he becomes a Sith? Just like that? And all for the love of peace? I don’t seem to remember that in the Sith doctrine.” “As I said, he will be a new Sith.” Mara was about to reply automatically, Over my dead body. Considering what had happened to her the first time and what she had been through since then, she thought the phrase was ill advised. Instead, she replied with, “In the words of another Luke I came to know recently, that is the biggest piece of crap I have ever heard.” The sound of a new comm channel alert came on and another voice entered into the mix. “This sounds like a very interesting conversation, ladies. Mind if I join in?” Mara froze. And remembered again. She was mistaken earlier. She hadn’t asked Hapan Control about the whereabouts of their Queen. He was exiting the Hapan System not long after she spoke to Hapan Control. Before Mara could reply, Lumiya beat her to it. “Hello, Jacen. It seems that somehow Mara knows too much. I have found your sacrifice. Kill her!” Immediately, Mara shouted, “No Jacen! Don’t listen to her! She’s manipulating–” Jacen fired.
