The Dark Empress

Laying in her own blood awaiting for further instructions from her mistress, she tries to stand but instead falls back down injuring her more. She just lays there as she starts to cry. Doors open from the chambers while a young blonde female wearing a dark robe and a dark hood covering her face steps inside.

"SLAVE!" Yelling at her, she picks her up by the shoulder and throws her across the room slamming against the wall.

"Pick yourself up and clean up your blood! Do it now!" demanding the mistress.

Trying to stand but it seemed like her leg was of no use, she crawls to her puddle of blood.

"Yes, mistress. . . I'll try.." she said.

Walking up to her throne, the empress sits down and stares out into space watching the planet Coruscant rotate. She turns around but to see the slave wasn't doing anything.

"I SAID CLEAN IT UP! WHAT ARE YOU DEAF?!"

Yelling at her the slave starts to cry silently making sure her mistress doesn't hear her. The door's from the chambers opens up again while an assassin droid comes through with a rag leaning over and cleaning the slaves blood off the floor. She seemed surprised that the mistress didn't know about this. Walking out of the room the mistress turns around and stares at the slave.

"I never did get to name you. What do those pathetic people call you?" she asked.

Staring at the mistress in hate and depression, she answers.

"Sofia Blossom.. mistress...."

Smiling while she starts to think.

"Sofia Blossom, interesting. . ."

Turning back around and staring out into space, the mistress senses something, something in the slave. Rising up out of her throne she goes into the chambers and brings back a red glowing Sith Holocron placing it in front of the slave she just stares at it, hoping it wouldn't do anything to her.

"So, your name is Sofia Blossom.. I once had a girl named Sofia, sad she had to pass though... But oh well." she said.

The Sith Holocron started to glow brighter and brighter as it blinded the slave.

Screaming in pain she collapses on the floor for quite sometime..

Awakening in her chamber on the bed, she stares up at the ceiling hoping nothing else would happen to her. She stood up surprised she didn't have anymore pain as if someone healed her. She looked at her arm but to see nothing was wrong, no blood, no scrapes, scars, nothing. The doors open while the mistress comes in with something in her hand, kind of looked like a collar.

"Now, do not move while I put this around your neck my dear slave." she said. Putting the collar around her neck, she was still confused about her unknown healing so she decides to ask the mistress what happened.

"How did I get healed mistress? I thought I was dead when the Holocron blinded me."

Staring at the slave she just walks out of the chambers into her throne room. Following her to some sort of training room, she looks around but to see dead bodies. The bodies even had collars around their necks. Staring at the bodies, the mistress pushes her to the first training course.

"Now then, you will practice your skills until you have reached the end. If you fail, you will be shocked with tons of lightning from the collar. If you fail three times, you will end up like those bodies down there. Understood?"

Staring back at the bodies she looks up but to see more courses await her.

"Yes mistress.." she said. Jumping in the air and landing on the first box that hovered above, she continued to jump higher and higher trying not to look down. She looked up and saw three more courses awaiting for her, three more that seemed very tough. Jumping on the next box it seemed to minimize, all of them minimized ahead. Still trying not to look down, she continues to jump to the last box landing on it her right foot slips off of the box while she just hung from the box, only her right arm was holding onto the edge. Covering her eyes hoping it would be a dream she opened but to see she was still hanging from the edge.

Jumping in the air she landed on the box continuing her last three courses. Few minutes pasted by while she finally reached her last course. Strange though, the tiles hovering in the air were all connected, she could easily just walk to the end where a Sith Light-saber was hovering in the air. She started walking but her foot fell right in the tile. Surprised she didn't fall she looked at the tiles but to see they were all holo-projected. If she walked though them she would just fall. Jumping in mid air again she landed on the edge of the platform where the Sith Light-saber stood almost falling she grabs ahold of the Light-saber and jumps back down where her mistress was.

"Good work. But this was just a practice course my dear, the real test is about to began." she said smiling.

Walking out of the training room she goes into another room, following her mistress she steps inside but to see a droid just standing in the middle of the room.

"This is DC 1.4.7, he is a Training Droid you are about to challenge. Now the real test is about to began."

Staring at the training droid it didn't move, it just stood there motionless. She looked back but to see her mistress was gone. Looking around the room she didn't see anything only walls and doors no windows nothing, all she had was a Light-saber.

"Training course activated. Master training sequence initiated."

Turning around she sees the training droid activated jabbing at her with his electro-staff. Trying to dodge every move and slicing the droid, it seemed hopeless. Suddenly she feels something hit her left side like a very sharp needle. Falling down in pain the droid stabs her again as she screams in pain. She begged him to stop but the droid kept stabbing her with his electro-staff.

"Sith show no mercy. Peace is a lie there is only passion."

Still screaming in pain, the droid stops while it seemed to shut down. The doors from behind her open while the mistress comes in with a medic droid. She looks down at the slave to see her whole left side is covered in blood.

"Pathetic, you scream in pain and beg for mercy. You're not a true Sith, true Sith show no mercy as the Droid said. If they stab you, you stab back! Never back down! Understood slave?"

Trying to not feel the pain she just nod's at her mistress. The medic droid helps her up while he hands her the Light-saber she dropped. Walking out of the training room the droid activates again.

"Through Passion, I gain Strength." It seemed as if the training droid was telling a code, a code she knew, she followed, she lived by. Jabbing at her she dodges and holds the electro-staff trying to steal it away from the training droid she flips the droid in the air slamming him on it's back. Stabbing the electro-staff in it's chest sending him offline, she throws the electro-staff against the wall and stares at the droid hoping it wouldn't explode in front of her. The doors behind her opened up while the mistress came in,

"Hmm, not good my dear but you will learn."

She comes towards the slave and hands her another curved light-saber igniting it, the blades went out both ways surprised she didn't cut her leg off.

"I think this will help you along your journey with me. Soon, you will be forced to face a more powerful Sith in the galaxy."

Confused but excited, she wanted to know the name of this unknown powerful Sith.

"Who is he, what's his name mistress?" She asked.

"Who is he? He is a Sith Emperor, well more of a Sith Under-Lord. He is my closest friend, his name is Snake."

Laying on her bed she tries to sleep while the pain inside her continues to spread. She sees a bright light in her mind while she sees her future, a vision of her future. Standing outside the Ancient Sith Academy on Korriban, she turns around to see her mistress wearing a black robe with a purple hood and a black and red light-saber. She walks towards a unknown place in the desert following her mistress, she leads her to an entrance of a temple. It seemed to be over a thousand years old seeing how there were dead bodies on the ground and dead creatures lying around. She looks around but sees more bodies and more creatures.

"Mistress, what is this place?" she asked.

Stopping and turning around while staring up at the temple she begins to talk.

"You don't know what this is? This is the most important place you need to know in the Sith culture. This place is called The Valley of the Dark Lords. The Valley of the Dark Lords, originally known as the Valley of the Sleeping Kings, was a valley and burial ground of Korriban's Sith Lords. Originally constructed by the planet's natives as a burial ground for their kings; the Exiles of the Jedi Order who came to be known as the Dark Lord of the Sith added their own tombs to the valley."

Still following her mistress she steps on a sleeping creature, it's eyes open while it jumps on top of her clawing at her face trying to kill her. Igniting her light-saber, the mistress stabs into the creatures skull killing it. Staring at her apprentice she leans over and feels her neck for any sign of pulse, nothing. Carrying her to a resting place, she lays her inside a tomb and seals the door shut. She walks away without another word, without even looking back.

Her eyes open while she yells in horror, the door's in her chamber opens while the mistress steps inside.

"Nightmare again my slave? You'll learn to deal with them."

Staring around then looking at herself she is glad that she wasn't dead.

"I just had a vision that we were on the planet Korriban and we went to the Valley of the Dark Lord's while I stepped on a creature and it tried to kill me."

Surprised that she told her this information, she sat next to her and pulled out a holo-map.

"Korriban? Interesting you had the vision because we're going there now. When we land, just stay close to me. I will make sure nothing happens to you. I'd have to pay for it anyway.."

Still a little shaken up from her vision she only hopes nothing will happen to her.

"Alright, but if a creature does try to kill me, use all your power to bring me back and not leave me inside a dusty tomb."

Laughing, she just gets back up and starts to walk near the door.

"My dear slave, I can't promise anything. Just stay by me and you'll be fine."

"Alright, I'll try." she said. Getting up out of bed she goes to get her clothes and follows her mistress to the hangar bay. The door's open while the mistress steps out first and walks into the desert. Walking towards the Valley of the Dark Lord's she looks behind her to make sure Sofia was still there. Walking inside she looks around but to see dead bodies and creatures. Looking down she sees more dead bodies and creatures lying around. She steps on something as she looks down but to see a creature open its eyes staring at her. The creature jumps up landing on her while the mistress ignites her light-saber and stabs the creature in the skull killing it. Looking down she sees her apprentice lying on the ground in blood.

"No, not this again. . . "

Trying to feel for any sign of pulse in her apprentices neck she doesn't feel anything but she sees her eyes still open while a tear slowly slides down her face.

"Please, don't let me die. . . " she said in pain.

She tries to heal her with anything she had but nothing would work, she knew she had little time and there was no medic droid around, only tombs and guards. Picking her up she runs to her shuttle while the pilot droid arrives in the back while he looks at Sofia and sees her neck covered in blood.

"Is there anything I can do, mistress?"

She doesn't answer while she tries to think,

"Revive her, I can't risk another slave dead on my hands.."

The droid nods and goes to the back of the shuttle and pulls out a medic pad. Putting a cold cloth around her neck while he gets out a needle and injects it in a silver bottle that could heal her. Leaning over he injects the needle into her neck and slowly pulls it out hoping it would work. Few minutes pass while the mistress comes back from the Valley of the Dark Lord's and steps inside the shuttle.

"Anything?" she asked. The droid nod's while he leads her to Sofia. Surprised she made it, she saw her standing up holding the cloth around her neck. She turns around and sits back down still in pain.

"Be lucky you made it instead of being in a dusty tomb."

Laughing slightly she closes her eyes and tries to meditate. The droid then goes to the cockpit and takes off back to the Ancient Sith Academy. Not anytime past while the ship lands in front of the tall temple while the door's open and the mistress helps Sofia to her chambers. Setting her down on her bed she just looks at her and leaves the chambers.

~Two Hours Later~

The door from the chamber opens while the mistress steps inside.

"I think you've had enough time to rest my dear. It's time you meet your enemy. Someone more powerful than you, and almost as powerful as myself."

Following her mistress she looks around in the throne room but to see someone sitting in her throne. He wore a red and black hood, a black robe hanging down, and a double bladed light-saber hooked to his belt. She knew this person was a Sith, but now she wanted to find out who it was.

"Sofia, this is my dearest friend, Snake."

He rises up and takes off his hood to reveal a pale white Zabrak face. Her eyes widen after she saw him.

"Hello, Sister. . . "

"Snake, what are you doing here?" She asked while he steps down the stairs and stands in front of her.

"What am I doing here? I am here for a fight, a fight no one can stand but only me and mistress."

She just stood there motionless just thinking of why he wanted to fight her. Suddenly the lights went out in the throne room, it had gotten pitch black. A crack of thunder sounded off in the distance outside the Sith Academy. Lightning struck while the whole academy shook. Igniting his double bladed light-saber, he looks for any power source but sees nothing just pitch black and the sound of the storm. That was how he liked it. Dark and deadly.

"Well, we can't do this in pitch black now can we?"

The mistress then ignited her light-saber while it lit up most of the room. She stood by Snake while Sofia ignited her light-saber, more and more lightning strikes sounded off while it seemed to shake the academy even more while Snake just walked around thinking of a plan.

"Outside, we can fight in the weather. Little rain won't hurt you now will it?"

She looked at Snake and looked back at the window but to see lightning was still striking the skies. She knew if she got hit by lightning she wouldn't survive, no one could.

"What, you're not scared of lightning are you?" He laughed and stepped out of the throne room into the main hall then outside as he stood on the balcony with his light-saber lit blood red. Sofia followed while she thought about the idea. If she wanted to become Sith, she'd have to face anything that stood in her path. Even if it meant deadly bolts of lightning.

"Come on! I got all day."

She stood in the doorway looking outside while more dark clouds rolled in and more lightning strikes lit up the sky. She took her step outside while her light-saber was still lit. The mistress followed her and stood in the doorway watching them while Sofia stood in front of Snake as Snake took his first strike at Sofia's right side almost stabbing her.

"Make your move little brat."

She jumped in the air and force pushed him to the railing hitting the back of his head. She threw her light-saber at him cutting his side while it started to bleed. She stood in front of him while he stood up igniting his light-saber while he jumped into the air and electrocuted her forcing her into the railing while she closed her eyes hoping she would just die. She opened her eyes but to see a lightning strike. Strange, it seemed to be coming closer to her. All she just saw was complete darkness.

She awoke the next morning in her bed staring at the ceiling she hoped she was dead but she heard the door's open while she turned her head but to see her mistress step inside with a book.

"Well, least you're not dead. Here read this, it will help you with your skills. Many of the Sith here don't think you're a true Sith, they don't even think you know anything about the Sith. Learn these skills and practice them by tomorrow. If you don't, then think about dying."

She left the room while Sofia picked up the book as she read it. Rubbing her forehead she looked up but to see a complete white light coming near her as she started to pass out not knowing what was happening.

Waking up in the medic with a droid standing beside her checking her blood, she stares at the ceiling for a while almost closing her eyes. She hears the door open while her mistress steps in staring at her hoping her slave would be alright.

"Good news is, you're not dead. I must admit you're lucky to even be alive at the moment."

She turned to face her while a tear slowly ran across the slaves face, she just stayed there motionless.

"I felt death... I don't think I'll make it.." she said, shaking in fear.

Her mistress just stared at her while she held her hand. A tiny glow of light appeared out of the mistress hand flowing into the slave keeping her alive for now.

"You'll be fine, I can sense you'll make it. After all I've seen, you are no Sith. But a survivor of the Sith."

She just stared at her mistress for a few minutes while her eyes started to close. The doors from the medic opened again while Snake stepped through. His face was covered by his dark black hood, his robe were stained with dried blood, he just stared at the slave knowing the end was already here. He went on the other side of the medic bed and took the slaves hand while he closed his eyes and mumbled an ancient Sith spell.

Out from his hands, a steam of red mist came out and flowed into the slaves hand keeping her alive.

Now all she saw was complete blinding all around her, blinding skies, and a tall golden gate. Walking toward the gate she saw many people from the past she knew, even her lost parent's. The gates opened slowly while she took her first step inside. Looking around she saw something odd, it got blurry all around her, weird noises around her, then complete darkness. Waking up still in the medic room she saw her mistress and Snake standing beside her.

"What happened?"

Snake left the room while it was just her and the mistress, she just stared at Sofia thinking of what she would of done if she had died.

"You're alive while Snake healed you. Be lucky you weren't dead the whole entire time, I'd have to pay for it."

She tried to stand but her back ached in pain even her neck ached in pain.

"I don't understand. You wanted me dead though, I could sense it through you."

The mistress just stared at her while she handed her a Holocron that glowed dark red with mist around the top of it.

"I had to, it was the only way of the Sith Order. Torturing you is the only way you can become a true Sith and learn by it."

She took the Holocron while her hands shook hoping she wouldn't drop it. She stared at it for a few minutes then back at her mistress.

"Mistress, did you ever have a childhood back in the past?"

Her smile went down as she rubbed her forehead.

"Worst childhood ever, never did find out who my sister was."

Smiling and handing her a picture, her mistress just stared at it while her eyes widen. Looking at Sofia she looked back at the picture confused and thinking of how she got this, she thought she had lost it forever.

"What, where did you get this? I had it along time ago after my parents died. This picture was all I had left.."

After a small tear fell down her face, she held onto the picture smiling while she knew Sofia was her true sister.

"Before the accident, the day before that we took our picture you told me we shall be sisters from now on until the day we die. When the day arrived, you ran to your parents hoping they were alive while the picture came out of your pocket and landed on the ground. I picked it up and kept it for all of these years."

Holding the picture to her chest she hugged Sofia for a long moment and let go. Sofia started to close her eyes while she started to rest. Her mistress left the room but before she closed the door she heard Sofia say something,

"Mistress, even though you wanted me dead, do you believe I am your lost sister?"

Her mistress turned around and looked at Sofia while she shrugged.

"I'll believe it when I truly see it.."

Two days have past by while Sofia had gotten plenty of rest. She came out of her chambers and looked up at the throne but to see her mistress wasn't there. The doors from the training room opened while she looked over to see who it was.

"Sofia? I thought you and the mistress went out?"

Snake stepped inside from the training room and stood in front of Sofia while she just stood there confused.

"What do you mean? Where did she go?"

He pointed at the doorway where their ship had landed but now it was gone. She walked outside looking in the sky but to see just the blue sky and nothing else. She got worried as she went into the meditation chamber and sat down hoping this would help her find her mistress. She started meditating trying to find her through the Force, then it hit her, the past. She saw her and Xaya walking down to a star-fighter accident. She looked at Xaya while she saw tears running down her face as she ran toward the star-fighter that had crashed and inflamed. She just stood there watching her run toward the accident while a piece of paper flew out of Xaya's pocket flying in the air landing on the ground right next to Sofia's shoes. She picked it up and stared at it while she took it and put it in her pocket. Running toward Xaya, she grabbed her arm and pulled her away from the accident. Few seconds later the star-fighter blew up in flames knocking both her and Xaya down.

She came out of her meditation and remembered where she was as she rushed towards a pilot droid who was guarding the temple,

"Good Morning miss Sofia. How may I serve you?"

She forgot the name of the planet but she hoped the droid would know what planet she was on during the time of the picture.

"I am not familiar with this picture but I can tell you it is a lovely picture of you and the dear mistress."

She just stood next to the droid while she started meditating, then it hit her, "Ryloth!". She turned to the droid,

"Take me to Ryloth in a hurry, the mistress is in deep danger!"

"Yes, madam. Ryloth is only a few minutes away."

The pilot droid stepped inside the craft and took off to Ryloth. About ten minutes past while the craft landed on Ryloth, the door's opened while Sofia ran out of the craft looking for her. Nothing, just a few houses. She looked further and saw someone standing in the middle of a dried dirt path. She walked toward her while a loud explosion sounded off in the distance. She turned around but to see she was going the wrong way, and she was out of time. Running as fast as she could to her mistress, she finally reached her as she leaned against her holding her up while the pilot droid came with a medic pad.

"Sofia..." She said almost out of breath, "it's time you., need to take my place. I can't go any further.. "

Confused but in tears she tried healing her with everything she had.

"NO! Xaya! Please don't die on me!"

She held her tightly as her eyes closed taking her last breath.

"No..."

After so long of being with her mistress the day had finally come. Several Sith Soldiers gathered around a tombstone and sat down meditating all around as for Sofia, she didn't come to the funeral while she was at the temple in the throne room just sitting there motionless. It was always hard to forget someone you truly loved and respected. Back at the graveyard more Sith soldiers came and gathered around the tombstone to say their last word's to their mistress. Thunder cracked in the sky while it started to rain slowly while a Sith came out of the distance covered in nothing but black. He walked towards the tombstone and kneeled down moving his hand in a circular formation around the wet dirt as he stood up and walked away without looking back and saying another word. After about ten minutes all the Sith soldiers left while they returned to the Sith Academy. Staring out the window in the throne room, Sofia got up and walked outside to find the graveyard, about five minutes of walking she finally reached the graveyard opening the gates and walking towards the tombstone. She kneeled in front of it as she read the tombstone.

R.I.P, Xaya DarkEmpress. One to always remember and one to always respect.~

More tears ran down her face while she looked around her to make sure no one was there, so she decided to say her last word's to her greatest mistress before she left.

"Well, like it says, one to never forget.. I didn't want you to die this way, but it is how it is. I'll always miss you Xaya, and I wish you the best in the new life.."

She got up and wiped her tears away while she closed the gates as she took one last look at the tombstone and turned around. She decided to go somewhere else instead of the Sith temple since it reminded her too much of Xaya but she had nowhere to go. The storm got worse while lightning struck the skies. Strange, she looked up ahead but to see a dark figure standing in the middle of the road, then it disappeared. She turned back around and walked toward the Sith temple hoping nothing would happen. Walking through the hallway of the Sith temple, she looked at each statue but to see each one was the exact same. Opening the doors to the throne room she looked up at her throne, at her two thrones now. Her eyes got blood red as she walked inside and closed the doors.

~One Year Later~

Sitting in her throne looking much younger and much more powerful, she stared at the Sith Academy watching the warriors fail. She stood up and walked to her chambers and took out one of the Sith Holo-crons that glowed bright red. She looked at it and mumbled a spell while the whole ground quaked, in the distance near the Sith Academy the warrior's stopped and stared at the ground.

"What in lord's name---"

The ground quaked again and opened up revealing it's deadly lava pit while it sucked up ten of the new member's of the Sith Order. She smiled and laughed evilly while she sat her holo-cron down and walked outside getting some fresh air. She looked up in the sky but to see a few storm clouds were gathering in from the east. Dark deadly storm clouds to be exact. Walking closer to the Sith Academy she heard a strange noise something she hasn't heard, something new. The ground quaked again and stopped while a piece of paper floated in the air and landed beside her shoe. She picked it up but to see it was the picture of her and Xaya standing together but this time it looked like it was just taken a few days ago, even a few minutes ago. She stared at it and looked behind as her eyes widen. "I am still alive.."

Few days have past by while Sofia had took her place in her throne over looking the Sith Academy that stands before her. The door's open while a male zabrak comes in with a note in his hand. He bows before her as she turns around and smiles evilly.

"My dear mistress, this note comes for you. A lady dressed in a purple robe gave me it to hand it to you."

She doesn't move as she starts to think, "now who would be dressed in nothing but purple robe." her eyes stare at the zabrak that has risen,

"Well bring it to me! I'm not your slave, you are mine!"

The zabrak walks towards her and hands her the note as she unfolds it and starts to read it.

"Sofia, many months have past by while you thought I was dead. I must say I have been watching you ever since my, uncalled for death. I am very proud of you but you will not last long. I can see the future Sofia, you will be my apprentice once again when time comes."

XD.~

She looks at the signature on the bottom, "XD.", weird she'd put that there. She already knew it was Xaya but she wanted to know how she survived or if she survived. Walking out of her temple she heads to her Sith Furry Class Interceptor and takes off to the near planet Dromund Kaas. The ship lands in front of the entrance to the temple of Dromund Kaas as she steps out of her ship and begins walking toward the entrance. A fellow soldier greets her as he let's her pass. Walking through the hallway she looks around to see statues of the greatest Sith who lived, but the hallways started to get crowded, something wasn't right. She pushed herself through the crowd as she spotted someone lying on the floor covered in blood. She looked up to see if there was anyone but all she saw were police droids and more people.

"Alright move out of the way please! Coming through!"

She turned around to see three police droids and two medic droids coming through. The police droids pushed the people out of the way while they led the medic droids to the unknown person.

"Any idea of what happened here?" she asked curiously.

The police droid turned around while he handed her a holo-cron that was in his pocket,

"Nothing happened that you need to be worried about mistress. Please, take this holo-cron and give it to the Sith Lord, Darth Malgus. His ship landed earlier and he's staying for a while on Dromund Kaas."

Her eyes widen, she had always wanted to meet Malgus for the first time and now was her chance. She took the holo-cron and placed it in her pocket walking away. Outside the skies started to cloud up as normal, lightning struck the skies and thunder roared in the distance, she looked around for Malgus's ship but all she saw was hers and nothing else. Suddenly she saw a few Sith troops walking in formation, they were leading someone to the entrance of the temple, someone who seemed to be very popular. Her eyes widen while her mouth drop slightly open, dressed in all black and his hood covering his face, he walked towards the entrance but stopped and stared at her. He turned and started walking toward her, her heart pounded as she started to get the holo-cron out of her pocket. Standing in front of her he bows while she does the same.

"I believe you have something for me?"

She gave him the holo-cron that glowed bright red in his hand. He gave it to one of his Sith troops as he put it in a silver box like case.

"You, You're, Darth Malgus! I have always wanted to fight along side you in combat!"

He lowered his hood while he revealed his face.

"Hmm, I could use a new companion. Go to the Sith Academy on Korriban and wait for me. That is all."

She nodded and went back to her ship while she took off to Korriban.

Walking through the city of Coruscant she stops at the edge of the railing while she looks down seeing many star-fighters fly by. Thinking of her past she remembers a dear friend, Xalandra Nova, she was Sofia's favorite friend until an accident back in the past. The sun set over Coruscant while night arrived, it was coming faster by the minute. Strange, night never comes this fast it seemed like something was covering the skies of Coruscant. Suddenly she sees a dark star cruiser appear out of the sky while tons of star-fighters come swooping down blasting everything in their path. She took action while she jumped off the edge and ignited her light-saber falling onto a speeder that was driven by a trandoshian. The trandoshian got out his gun and started shooting at Sofia while she cut his gun in half and sliced him across the neck pushing him out of the speeder and taking it over. More and more Sith star-fighters came swooping down and attacking the Jedi Council. Landing the speeder in front of the Jedi Temple she gets out while tons and tons of Sith warrior's come marching up the path to the Jedi Temple. She sees Darth Malgus arriving while she awaits for him so he could give her further instructions.

"What is my bidding, my lord?"

He looks at her then at the temple.

"Get inside, destroy as many Jedi as you can and take the council. I will send my troops inside to back you up."

She nods and goes inside the temple. Walking inside she sees the Sith warriors in duel with the Jedi's as their blades clash against one another, while she looks up and forces herself up to the next floor. Two Jedi knights run after her while they try to attack her but she dodges every move and every hit they gave her.

She jumps in the air kicking one Jedi in the face knocking him off of the second floor then stabbing the second Jedi while she watches him die in his own blood. She runs to the Council room but to see no one was there as if the Sith already got to it before she did. Out of nowhere, she feels pain cruising down her spine, every bone ached, her breath got hard to breathe while she turned around and stabbed the remaining Jedi that stood in her way. The Jedi started to bleed so much that she could see herself in his blood. She looked at the blood and saw her reflection, her eyes darkened, her eyes became black and red. Her whole body shot out lightning, all of the powers she learned from the past came to her in one blast.

She walked down the steps and shocked one Jedi with lightning, stabbed another in his chest, force pushed another Jedi into the wall, she killed every single Jedi that stood beside her or in front of her. She looked up to the third level and jumped while she saw more Jedi running towards her while she smiled and ignited her light-saber.

Outside the temple Malgus stood there watching those pathetic Jedi die one by one. After about ten minutes, Sofia came out while behind her the Jedi temple exploded into ash, glass falling everywhere, bricks falling one by one, it was the best victory the Sith have ever had. Sofia stares at Malgus and begins walking toward him while he just stares aimlessly at the temple in huge flames. He knew he'd picked the right girl for the job.

"Well well..."

She stops in front of Malgus and stares at him,

"What? I did what you asked."

Malgus stared at her and turned her around where she was facing an enormous crowd of all the Sith warriors who stood before them.

"I think we have a new Dark Empress of the Sith.."

She smiles while she steps beside Malgus and looks at the crowd of the remaining Sith warriors, igniting her light-saber she begins to speak.

"Today, we fought for victory! Today we became more powerful! Today will be now known as The Sacking of Coruscant! Now bow down to the new, DARK EMPRESS!"

"Korriban, the ancient birthplace of the Sith. Here we grow power. Here we grow strength. Here we become anything, and here is my new beginning as a true Dark Empress."

Sitting in her throne over looking the Sith Academy in the distance, she begins to wonder what would happen to her if she died one day. She shook her head while a droid steps through the chambers.

"My lord, someone is here to speak to you. Shall I send them in?"

She turns around and stares at the droid while she nods,

"Let them in. I couldn't care what they want."

The droid nods and goes towards the chamber door and opens it while a young female wearing a black robe and a purple hood steps in. She stops at the steps of the throne while she bows.

"Good morning empress Sofia."

Rising out of her throne she electrocutes the unknown girl making her fall down in pain while she rises up and electrocutes her as well. Surprised that this filth would actually stand and fight, she walks down the steps and stands in front of her while she removes the unknown persons hood while her eyes widen.

"Xaya? I don't understand.. You're dead!"

She laughs and pushes her out of the way while she takes her seat in her old throne,

"Indeed I was my dear, but you have much to learn about cloning."

She stands and looks out the window while the sun sets right above the top of the Sith Academy. Sofia walks back to her throne and sits while she stared at Xaya confused.

"I know about cloning I just never got the time to learn it. Unlike you I was with Darth Malgus leading the sacking of Coruscant."

She laughs and turns around staring at Sofia.

"You have no idea of where I was. You think I would actually miss out on the Sacking of Coruscant? I was the new bounty hunter, I was the Jedi you kicked in the face and pushed off the second floor, I was the one behind Malgus watching your every move. How does that make you feel Sofia?"

Her eyes widen again while she stands up and ignites her light-saber and points it at Xaya. Walking toward her she forces her up in the air and sends her slamming against the glass window. She jumps and lands behind her while she puts the saber near her neck.

"I have always wanted to be the Dark Empress and you will not take over! I don't care if you died or not but I need this. I have everything perfect, and I don't need you taking over and throwing me away like a piece of trash."

Silence broke the room until a few moments later,

"You have no idea who you are messing with Sofia. I am more powerful than you can ever imagine."

Suddenly she disappears into thin air.

Sun rose above the peaceful planet of Ryloth while it shined over the newly built Jedi Temple, it was still a working progress. After the sacking of Coruscant ended, the Jedi were forced to leave the planet and find a new one. The Jedi padawans came outside to practice with their masters while the Jedi Council members gathered around a meditation center. Everything was perfect or that's what they thought.

Suddenly the sky became dark and dull while Sith star ships came swooping down blasting everything in their path including the rebuilt Jedi Temple. So many lives were lost during the battle while Empress Sofia came through on her Sith Furry Class Interceptor and landed only a few feet away from the Jedi Temple. From the back of the ship it deployed Sith warriors and troops while they ran out blasting everything in their path. The cockpit opened up while Sofia got out and held her double bladed light-saber. She walked up to the entrance of the temple and stepped inside while a few Jedi knights gathered around her with their light-sabers lit.

She smiled evilly while she ignited her double bladed light-saber and began to duel. From behind Darth Malgus came through from the star cruiser that was hovering in the skies of Ryloth, his Sith furry class interceptor landed beside Sofia's while his troops deployed from the back as well. The cockpit opened to reveal Malgus while he ignited his light-saber and pointed at the temple while tons of troops came through destroying it. Malgus started walking up to the temple while more Sith star ships came swooping down destroying everything in their path. Malgus shouted out to his troops,

"This is now under Sith control! Do not fail me or you will end up dead. Take what is ours and return it, destroy the pit-full Jedi and ruin the day they claimed this planet!"

Walking inside the temple he found Jedi bodies laying on the ground covered in blood, he looked up to see Sofia heading to the Jedi archives while he followed her. Inside the archives she looked around to see tons of Jedi Holo-crons she could take. Looking to her left she saw someone dressed in black who was taking the holo-crons as well. She ignited her light-saber while she aimed it at the unknown person's neck.

"Who are you? Answer me and I won't gut you."

The unknown person removed his hood to reveal his zabrak face, it was lord Snake who was taking the holo-crons while Sofia's eyes widen.

"You didn't think I would miss out on this too now would you?"

She just stared at him and smiled then walked away. After about three hours of death and fighting, the war had ended and the Sith had won. Sofia took her seat in her star ship and took off back to Korriban where her throne was. Malgus stayed behind and helped the Sith build their new Sith Empire. Meanwhile back on Korriban, Sofia's ship landed while she headed to her throne room but to see her old mistress Xaya was there sitting in her throne.

"I see you have won the battle with the pit-full Jedi. I must say you are a true empress."

Sofia just walked up to her throne but to head towards the window staring at the Sith Academy. Everything was in place and they would soon have the galaxy for their own. Xaya rose out of the throne and stood beside Sofia with her hands behind her back. Sofia looked at Xaya and back at the window overlooking the Sith Academy.

"Xaya, if anything does go wrong I just want you to know I can handle everything now. Ever since I became a Dark Empress I am in full power."

Xaya smiled while she handed Sofia her light-saber she used when she was a Sith Inquisitor. She then walked away while Sofia took the light-saber and walked back to her chambers. She placed the light-saber on the shelf that had many Sith holo-crons and the picture of her and Xaya. She smiled while she turned away.
