    Ravenous

    It is told that a Jedi went into the wild jungles of Izcathar and when he came reemerged the Sith
    Brotherhood was born. Through the careful study of Sith lore through their holocrons, it was
    learned that this Jedi met and became bound to a creature called the Writhen. There is little
    description given of this creature but before the embellishments of youth throughout the years, it
    was said to have been a scaly shadow, a wraith and serpent.

    The Jedi bound to the Writhen returned to Coruscant to collect followers and brought them to
    Izcathar, never knowing the true nature of the Writhen. By the time he'd returned the Writhen
    had produced heirs to its power and they remained close to their parent and teacher. The Jedi's
    acolytes did as well, going as far as binding with the Writhen young.

    In time, the Writhen as well as the Sith as they were quickly known to become grew to their full
    stature physically and in the Force. What the Jedi-turned-Sith leader did not know when he
    became bound to the Writhen and allowed his apprentices to do likewise, was that when the
    Writhen became fully grown, that it or they ingested their parent.

    The Sith Leader, felt the pain of his bound Writhen's death and wondered at it. His pondering
    was not long, for moments after his Sith apprentices prayed upon him and he was killed.




    His memories were not his own. At first it had been a mild confusion, a shade over certain
    events. But quickly it grew, the multiple times Jacen had arranged his memories had left his
    mind weakened, vulnerable. He couldn't remember when the coherency of his mind had begun
    to shatter and what had once been sentient thought had dwindled away to feral urgings.

    Gently, subtly he'd changed, to the point that he didn't recognize the other being in his
    subconscious and believed that his thoughts were his own.

    The impulse to kill Jacen had come in a quiet insidious voice. Before he would wonder at the
    temerity of such a thought. Jacen was his guide, his mentor, his family. Yet as the notion snaked
    through his mind, curling around his grey matter, a sly smile curved his lips.

    His Master was sleeping in his cot. He slept as the galaxy fell to ruin. The citizens rising against
    the tyranny wrongly placed upon them.

    Soon his pestilent thoughts brought him to the edge of his Master's bunk and he looked down on
    him with eyes bright with hunger. His fingers found the hilt of his lightsaber and they wrapped
    around its cool metallic pummel, squeezing tightly.

    Jacen's own eyes snapped open and bolted like a springboard in his bed. ?Ben? What are you
    doing??

    ?Nothing,? the soft reply came, holding an empty timber. ?Go back to sleep.?

    Jacen blinked, quickly, dispelling sleep and coming fully alert. Without a word and never tearing
    his gaze from the young Jedi before him, he slipped off the bed. ?Ben you're projecting in the
    Force.?

    ?Am I?? He'd never shared the Skywalker proclivity for the Force. In his youth he'd done
    everything to keep away from it.

    He depressed the actuator button on his lightsaber and coalesced blue light slinked from the
    pummel and formed to a meter long blade. The color felt wrong. Ben gazed at it for a moment,
    reasserting that this was indeed his lightsaber. [i]Red would have been better,[/i] the thought
    came to him. [i]Blood is always better.[/i]

    Jacen reacted instantly, his own light blade spurting to life in vibrant emerald. ?Ben you don't
    want to do this.?

    ?Why not??

    ?Because, I'll kill you.?

    Below the flame of red hair, Ben's blue eyes glowed ever vibrantly, a fever unquenchable.
    ?That's not an option.?

    Jacen lunged at him first. Ben's blade came up to bat his away with a speed unparalleled in him
    before. His abilities in the Force enhanced to his full potential. The two blades beat and sizzled
    together, causing an angry cry in the small cabin. There wasn't room for overt acrobatics or saber
    techniques designed for the flourished movements. Everything was

    Oh, nicely done! =D=

    Jacen lunged at him first. Ben's blade came up to bat his away with a speed unparalleled in him
    before. His abilities in the Force enhanced to his full potential. The two blades beat and sizzled
    together, causing an angry cry in the small cabin. There wasn't room for overt acrobatics or saber
    techniques designed for the flourished movements. Everything was short concise, rabid and
    rapacious.

    They traded blow for blow. To Ben it was a game, a change to play with his prey.

    Jacen didn't slip, nor was his defense inadequate, save for the fact that Ben was more then human
    now. When Ben raised a hand and clawed at the air, Jacen was buckled by rents in his suit and
    skin. Ben's tongue licked out, tracing his lips, at the sight of Jacen's blood as it pooled at the
    tears and spilled over.

    Brown eyes wide with shock, Jacen asked, ?How??

    ?Does it matter
    ??

    Loved that! :eek:

    This was a favorite part ofmine as well. Just the raw animalistic power Ben was able to use.

    Thanks for reading.




    Thank you, I appreciate it.
