Star Wars: Path to the Dark Side

Author's Note:

I've been meaning to write this story for a while now, and if you're reading this, that means I've finally done it. So much for me being a lazy fuck, eh, mom?

But anyway; this story focuses more on its story element, so if you're looking for some quick and dirty jerk off material, this probably isn't for you. HOWEVER, that is not to say that there is nothing here that your favorite hand and your good ole' joymaker companion can't get very friendly over. Quite the contrary,

So strap on in and enjoy!

The orange light of the rising star Tythos filled the council chamber and reflected off of the walls and onto the solemn faces of the Jedi High Council. They sat in silence around the three women standing before them, their undivided attention directed towards the one in the middle, the most mature out of the three.

Grand Master Satele Shan spoke up first, her tone calm, her expression serene, yet filled with authority. "Master Feya, we have granted your request to speak before the Jedi Council. Please, proceed."

Master Feya bowed and her long brown hair fell over to cover her face momentarily. She swept it away as she rose back, revealing her bright, chocolate brown eyes once again. "Thank you, Master Shan." Then she turned to adress the entire council. "I wished to ask for your permission to send my Padawans," she gestured towards the two young girls standing behind her, "on a mission to complete their training and also aid the Republic in the coming war, should it ensue."

Several council members leaned forward in their seats, their curiosity piqued.

"And what do you propose, Master Feya?" The Grand Master spoke up again.

"I would have them infiltrate the Sith Empire by coming to Korriban and take on the role of two new Sith acolytes, so they could gather information until they proceeded into stage two; becoming the apprentices of an influential Sith Lord."

Elianna could feel a variety of emotions in the room becoming stronger and stronger with each word her Master said.

"Under direct service of such a Sith Lord, they could provide us with immensely valuable information on both Imperial and Sith affairs, which, as I'm sure you'd agree, would be incredibly useful for the Republic."

A moment of silence took over, as each council member quietly contemplated the woman's words. And although she couldn't hear their thoughts, Elianna could feel their emotions; mainly doubt. However, she picked up on something different -- resolve -- from one of them. Her green eyes focused on Master Orgus Din, just as he opened his mouth to speak.

"And are you confident that your Padawans will not fail?" He asked.

Everyone in the room knew exactly what he meant. It was not death that he was referring to, but something far worse. Elianna couldn't help but shudder. Just the thought of falling to the dark side was terrible.

Her Master turned to Orgus. "I am."

He nodded, then looked towards his fellow council members. "We've had a request like this before, and we approved it. I see no reason we should deny this one."

A murmur of agreement spread throghout the room, before the Grand Master put an end to it. "Padawan Elianna Doryen, Padawan Vivian Kael, I'm sure you two are well aware of the challenges you will face in your mission. You will be separated from the Republic, your fellow Jedi and your own Master and surrounded by the servants of the dark side. Often you may be forced into actions you would not otherwise do. Lines may be required to be crossed. Are you ready to put yourselves through all of this for the good of the Galaxy?"

"We're ready." The two young girls bowed.

Master Satele's serene gaze turned towards Master Feya. "We will discuss your proposal and call upon you as soon as we've come to an agreement, Master Feya."

The woman bowed as well. "Thank you for your time, Grand Master."

Elianna looked in the mirror. Before her stood a young girl with shoulder length black hair stylized into an angular bob cut. She wore skin tight black robes that accentuated her mild curves and gave her the appearance of a proper Sith acolyte. How revolting, she thought.

Then she spotted her fellow to-be acolyte in the reflection of the mirror, Vivian Kael. Vivian had long ginger hair and was about the same height as Elianna, but curvier. She wore the same black robes that ran smoothly over her breasts, her butt, her legs and clinged tightly to her curves. Elianna couldn't help but feel a twinge of arousal, but she quickly suppressed it. There is no passion, there is serenity.

"You know, you've gotta give it to them, the Sith sure know how to dress." Vivian remarked as she inspected herself in another mirror, a mischievous smile playing on her full lips.

"I wouldn't even be surprised if you joined them just for their fashion sense." Elianna retorted sarcastically, eliciting a laugh from her companion.

"Oh, don't worry, it takes more than flashy outfits to convince me." She winked.

Vivian was always hard on her previous instructors due to her wild, independent nature. She said what she thought and had no intention of putting a leash on her emotions. It was charming, Elianna supposed, but also dangerous, as her Master always said.

Then the door to the locker room the two were standing in hissed open and one of their escorts, dressed in Imperial armor, stepped in and saluted. "The escort ship has arrived, we will leave to Korriban as soon as you're ready."

Elianna nodded. "Then let's waste no more time." And headed out.

Once she was gone, Vivian pressed out her chest and strutted over to the soldier, her hips swaying, and seductively ran her finger over the man's chestplate. "Care to waste some time, Private Danebra?" She purred, biting her lower lip as she smiled up at him.

"Uh-Um, I..." The soldier stuttered, clearly flustered under the angular helmet, with all his composure gone. This was the last situation he expected to find himself in.

The girl laughed. "I'm sorry, just trying to get into the act." She patted his chest. "Let's get going, big guy." And left. She could hear the young man sighing as he deflated.

Elianna could feel the growing tension of the dark side pressing against her from the direction of the red planet. It made her feel uneasy, anxious. Vivian felt the same, but Elianna could detect a twinge of thrill, too. She wasn't sure what to make of that, but she suspected it was her thirst for new experiences.

The comlink on the console in front of the pilot pinged, indicating incoming transmission from Korriban. He switched it on.

"Unidentified ship, you are treading in a restricted zone inside Imperial space. You have one minute to identify yourselves, or face immediate execution. Over." The voice was clear and had that unmistakable, pompous Imperial accent to it.

The pilot masterfully imitated the same accent as he replied, "This is Imperial shuttle C57-137, transporting two acolytes. We request permission to land. Over."

A couple seconds of silence indicated that the Imperials were making sure this was right. Shuttles transporting new acolytes were always unmarked in order to prevent any pirates attempting to attack them in hope of getting valuable ramson material, and this was very easily exploitable in rare missions like this. Of course, the Imperials on Korriban were always notified to expect shuttles transporting acolytes, but SIS had that covered.

"Affirmative. You've been cleared to land on Platform B. Over and out." The Imperial replied.

Elianna and Vivian sighed in relief, even though neither of them expected to run into any trouble. The pilot chuckled when he noticed their reaction.

The presence of the dark side became stronger as they neared the planet and eventually landed.

Once they left the ship, the setting sun slowly sinking over the horizon hit their eyes with its orange light, which also enveloped the dark, dusty walls of the Sith Academy. The pyramid-shaped temple towered over them, its walls held up by massive statues depicting humanoid slaves. Off in the valley, other statues, depicting the ancient Sith Lords could be seen, looking over the tombs.

Elianna couldn't help but admire it all. This entire planet was so full of culture and history, it was mind boggling. Even if it was the homeworld of their ancient enemy.

Vivian felt much the same way, however she was more taken by the dark beauty of the temple.

Then they noticed a tall, olive skinned man, clearly a Sith judging by his apparel and fierce facial tattoos, approaching them. He had a strict air about him, as he stood and inspected the two new arrivals with his dark brown eyes. The escort team all saluted and went back to the shuttle, shortly before taking off.

The man watched the ship leave, before turning his cold gaze back to the girls. "So." He began. "You two must be the latecomers. It is unusal for acolytes to arrive separately. In normal circumstances, you would have to wait until a whole group was assembled and go together. But consider yourselves fortunate, for we have a class already assembled that you may join. Follow me." He turned and lead them inside the temple.

They stepped inside a dark, dimly lit chamber where a group of young acolytes were already waiting. Most of them were humans, with a couple aliens here and there, and one male pureblooded Sith, who stood out from the rest.

"Join them." The man leading them said to the girls over his shoulder, before standing in front of the class.

Elianna awkwardly made her way to a subset of the group of individuals looking about as anxious as she was.

Vivian however stepped next to the tall pureblood, who regarded her with mild curiousity, but quickly turned his attention to the Sith.

He looked over the group, inspecting each member with seemingly uncaring eyes, before adressing them all. "I am Overseer Cardus." His voice boomed. "My task, as my title suggests, is to oversee your training, weed out the weak and prepare you to become true Sith." His cold gaze hardened as he looked at the small group of aliens in the back.

"Not everyone will make it to the end. Only the strongest and the most cunning will survive. My job, is to find these individuals and elevate them above the rest." Then he glanced at the pureblooded Sith. "Your job, is to prove you are worthy of such a privilege." He turned back towards most of the group as he went on.

"You will start tomorrow. For now, explore the Academy and find where everything is." He paused and stared at them. "Are you all still here? I've given you your task, get out of my sight and go do it this instant!" He barked, and the group quickly dispersed.

Elianna and Vivian were in for an adventure, they both realized. They wondered what tomorrow would bring.
