Mortis

3RD Person

A Jedi distress code that has not been used in over 2,000 years reaches the Republic. The Jedi order dispatches Jedi Knights Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi along with Padawans, Ahsoka Tano and Axle Tinguard to investigate. In fear of a Separatist trap, the group rondevu with a heavily armed Jedi Cruiser.

"Rex...Rex can you hear me? We're at the rendezvous point awaiting your arrival. Where are you?" Master Skywalker asked. "Sir we are at the rendezvous point, but we don't see you." Rex answered. "What's going on? We're at the rondevu point that's impossible. Somethings wrong, we are at the exact coordinates the distress code came from and there's nothing here. Rex is at the same coordinates and he's not here." Anakin explained, confused. "This is getting interesting." Master Kenobi said. Axle and Ahsoka looked at each other confused.

All of a sudden, Rex started to break up. "Something is blocking the signal." Ahsoka said. "Um I'm guessing it's that." Axle said pointing at a large object. Their power suddenly went dark. "Everything's dead, even the life support." Ahsoka panicked. "Since when did we ever need that before?" Axle jokes trying to lift the mood. "Uh, that thing is getting closer." Kenobi said. "Or maybe, we're getting closer." Anakin says. The power then turned back on. The Ship jerked forward. "We're being pulled in. The controls aren't responding." Axle informed. The object then opened up revealing bright light. "Um, I don't wanna be eaten by a giant space anomaly." Axle said as Ahsoka responded, "Really? Well I for one, would love to." "Everyone strap yourselves in. Looks as though we're going for a ride." Master Kenobi taunts. The bright light then blinded everyone and they all passed out.

"Uh, I must have blacked out." Anakin groaned. "Well then who landed the shuttle?" Kenobi asked. "Not me." Ahsoka said waking up. "Ow, what'd I miss?" Axle mumbled getting up, "And...how did I end up on the floor?" Ahsoka helped him up. "Um, where are we?" Anakin asked looking around. "Some kind of organic mass." Ahsoka informed him by looking at the ship's readings. "Did we land on someone's enormous head? Because otherwise, that wouldn't make much sense." Axle jokes. "That wouldn't make much sense either." Ahsoka raised an eyebrow. "Well, at least we would know what we were dealing with." Axle smirked. "It looks like the atmosphere is breathable." Ahsoka said looking back at the readings. "Really? And we're supposed to trust a ship that lost power, then turned back on, then was sucked into this place, then landed itself?" Axle points out. "Well this is becoming more unusual by the minute. I can't lock down where in the galaxy we are or...if we're in our own galaxy." Master Kenobi said. "The ship's systems seem fine, but none of the controls are working." Anakin informed. "Ok, now that doesn't make sense." Axle said. Ahsoka then walked out to the ramp and walked down. The others followed. "Hey, I saw something up on the hill." Ahsoka said. "I don't see anything." Master Kenobi confirmed holding up micro-binocs.

"Are you the one?" A voice asked. "What the....what? Did you hear that?" Anakin said. "Hear what?" Master Kenobi asked, still looking through the binocs. "Are you the one?" The voice said again. Anakin then turned around as a bright figure appeared. Everyone else then turned toward her. "Hello." Master Kenobi greeted. "Who are you?" Skywalker asked. "I am Daughter. Are you the one?" She said. "Uh, the one what?" Skywalker said, confused. "I will take you to him." The Daughter said. "Him who?" Ahsoka said. "Maybe to the person that gave us all a coma and made us imagen all this." Axle jokes. "Did you bring us here?" Master Kenobi asked. "Only he can help you. There is little time, follow me. We must have shelter by nightfall" She answered. "And we thought the planet was weird. Get a load of this one." Anakin jokes. "We'll be fine, as long as we stay together." Master Kenobi ensures.

...............................................................

"The force is very strong here." Anakin said strangely. "We must be vigilant." Kenobi says. "Excuse me. Who are you taking us to?" Skywalker asked The Daughter. "The Father of course." She answered. "Of course." Ahsoka rolled her eyes. "Oh yea, The Father. I used to play holo-chess with him." Axle jokes. "What exactly are you?" Obi-Wan asked. "We are the ones who guard the power. "We are the middle, the beginning and the end." The Daughter answered. "Glad she cleared that up for us." Anakin jokes.

Rocks then came crashing down, separating the group. "That was my brother's work. Wait for me and do not leave this place." The Daughter said and walked off. "Anakin are you there?" Kenobi said through his commlink. "Are you alright?" he continued. "Yea. But our friend here has RUN OFF. Go back to the ship and see if you can send another distress call. I'll follow her." Anakin answered. "And if this is a trap?" Kenobi asked. "Then I'm not gonna wait around to find out." the Jedi knight answered. "Anakin stop, wait for use to find another way and meet you..." Kenobi started, but the commlink flickered and shut off. Thunder could be heard coming toward them. Kenobi, Axle and Ahsoka head back to the ship.

...............................................................

When they arrived at where the ship was, it was gone. "Uh that's not good." Axle said. "The ship's gone?!" Ahsoka said. "Yes I see that." Kenobi said sarcastically. "Did you lose something?" A voice said. The three wiped around to find a figure. They ignited their lightsabers. "You didn't do as you were asked." The figure said. "And what was that?" Obi-Wan asked. "My sister said to wait." the figure explained. "Did she now?" Kenobi questioned, "Well we were unfortunately separated. We'd like our ship back if you don't mind." "NOT YET!!!" the figure yelled, "Is it true that he is the chosen one?" Axle detached his shoto from his standard blade and Ahsoka ignited her shoto. "What do you know about such things?" Kenobi asked angrily. "What is about to happen, shale occur, whether you like it or not." the figure says as he waved his hand disengaging the lightsabers stunning the Jedi. "You are Sith." Kenobi ensures. "Sith?" The figure laughed, "Yes, and no. The storms here are quite lethal. If you want to live, I suggest you find shelter." the figure then left, but turned into a large flying creature. "What was that?" Ahsoka stared in awe. "I hope this coma ends soon. I'm starting to think this is all real." Axle said. Lightning then struck right next to them. "Quick, there's a cave over there." Kenobi pointed out and they ran inside.

...............................................................

They set up a fire and drifted off to sleep. "Axle." A tender voice whispered. Axle slowly wakes up. "Axle." The voice says again. "Axle." A darker voice whispered. "Who's there?" Axle stood up and grabbed his saber. "Look into yourself. You know who we are." the darker voice answered. Axle hesitated, "I know you, from....somewhere. But I can't make it out." "We are your past. We come to you in your dreams." the lighter voice said. Axle then confirmed it by remembering his normal dreams. "Can you protect the one you love?" the darker voice asked. "What do you mean ONE?" Axle asked. "Her." the lighter voice said. Axle realized and looked toward the sleeping Togruta. "What is this about?" Axle asked again. "Ah, so you do love her." the darker voice said. "ANSWER ME!" Axle ordered. "What if I were to show you her fate." the darker voice explained.

Axle had a vision. A dark room with a figure of himself igniting his blades. Then several Red blades ignited surrounding him. They attacked, but were all killed. Axle then faced a chained Ahsoka who was killed by another red blade. "NO!!!" Axle yelled waking up. "Be warned, you must find your path." the lighter voice whispered. "Axle are you alright?" Master Kenobi asked kneeling next to him with Ahsoka on his left. "I...I saw something." He said. "What was it?" Ahsoka asked. Axle stared at her for a second, "Nothing. It was only a dream." as he got up and walked toward the fire.

...............................................................

The three Jedi walked through the grass as the sun rose. "The longer we stay here, the stranger it gets." Ahsoka says. "It appears the planet is renewing itself." Master Kenobi said. "Seriously, what did I eat that gave me such a nightmare?" Axle jokes which made them chuckle. "What about Master Skywalker?" Ahsoka says. "Anakin will not be easy to deceive." Kenobi ensures her. Two figures approached them from behind and grabbed the trio.

...............................................................

The two figures drop Kenobi next to The Father as he grabs him. The Son holds Ahsoka at one end of the arena structure and The Daughter holds Axle at the other. "Let them go. I will not play your games." Anakin yells. "Oh, but I think you will. I have ordered my children to kill your friends. The question is, which one will you choose to save?" The Father explained, "Your young friend who is like a little brother to you. Or your apprentice who you would protect with your life." "ANAKIN LISTEN TO ME NOW! SAVE AHSOKA!!!" Axle yelled. "NO! SAVE AXLE!!!" Ahsoka yelled back. "ANAKIN. THIS PLANET IS THE FORCE!!! USE IT!" Kenobi advises. Anakin outstretched his hands and grabbed the two children. "YOU WILL LET THEM GO!!!" Anakin ordered. He lifted the children up and made them release the young Padawan's. He then force pushed the children into the walls behind them. Ahsoka and Axle ignited their blades ready to cut down the monsters. Anakin grabbed the children once again and forced them down on their knees. The children turned back into humanoid form. "And now you see who you truly are." The Father said letting go of Kenobi, "Only the Chosen One could tame both my children." "I've taken your test. Now fulfill your promise and let us go." Anakin ordered. "Ah, but now you must understand the truth. All of you leave us." The Father ordered. "Do not trust him." Ahsoka whispered. "Ya think." Anakin whispered back. Then they left Anakin and The Father alone.

...............................................................

All four of them got back on their ship. "Ready to get out of here?" Kenobi asked Anakin. Anakin looked back at the planet of Mortis, then boarded the ship. The ship flew off.
