Assassin

Khan remained on the roof for the next few days and practiced his newfound talent. He used the force to conceal himself and create illusions of other objects. At an advanced level, he can even make objects indistinguishable through the force; Even form illusions that caused physical harm and could kill just by tricking the senses.

He trained until the day Habitat contacted him again. "The Republic A-Wing has completely entered the net. I've jammed their signals and cut off their retreat with the interceptors."

Khan stopped practicing and turned towards the sky. He could feel his guest getting closer. "Shoot the spider missiles and take over their ship."

--

In space near the Ossus system, Amora is frantically flying her A-wing. Ten interceptors had flanked her on all sides. No matter what she did, she couldn't shake them. they moved in perfect sync with her movements and continued to force her in a certain direction.

"Come in! Come in! Can anyone hear me?!? This is Padawan Amora Syraar, is anyone receiving my signal?!?" She tried flipping her comms to different channels but all she got was white noise in response.

Her eyes darted from side to side and she glanced at the advanced fighters she'd never seen before. "Their maneuverability is well beyond anything I've ever seen before, and it looks like their firepower is top-notch."

Just looking at the four-pronged wings armed with cannons and missile launchers let her know her life was out of her own hands.

Suddenly, all the alarms started going off and an interceptor behind her fired a missile. The interceptor used its prongs as magnetic rails to increase the firing speed of the missile.

The missile easily surpassed her ship and her eyes widened. She wanted to pull back or turn to the side, but the interceptors flew closer and locked her in place.

The missile exploded with just enough power to break away the casing, revealing five spider bots inside. They opened their legs and attached to the A-wing as it flew past them.

Amora saw the shiny black droids start drilling into the hull of her ship. "No!!"

She panicked, immediately realizing what the droids were trying to do. Her hand thrust forward and she tried to push them off with the force.

The droids swayed slightly, but their magnetic legs kept them firmly in place. She tried pushing harder, but the droids had already drilled into the hull and anchored themselves to it.

The alarms on the ship went haywire and she tried to jiggle the controls, but she eventually lost full control. "No, how can this be?"

Her hands dropped and her eyes looked a bit lifeless. She had to watch as her ship steered itself forward. Eventually, a barren-looking planet came into view.

In orbit, she could see a massive ship. Droids swarmed all around and worked on the frame of some sort of structure. Just looking at this small section she could tell it would be massive in size. Some sort of superweapon like those in the legends.

"What have I gotten myself into?" The interceptors pulled back and her ship entered the atmosphere.

Her ship dived towards a mountain range where she saw an elaborate castle. The mountain face above the castle slid open and revealed a tunnel leading inside.

The ship flew in without stopping. It didn't take long for her to arrive in an open space under construction. The ship hovered over the ground and finally set down.

Her head turned, looking at all the droids excavating the mountain and building factories. Her head turned until she saw three people standing in robes looking at her.

The moment she saw their yellow eyes her body shivered all over. The hatched to her ship unlocked and slowly opened. "I refuse to be played with anymore! You think I fear you, Sith!!"

She grabbed her saber and jumped out the moment she could. She flipped through the air and ignited her saber. Her double-bladed purple lightsaber spun in her hands as she landed.

Khan looked at the blue-skinned togruta in front of him with interest. The montrals and lekku with their tribal marking gave her an exotic feel. The deep cleavage her armor revealed was something he didn't expect from a Jedi.

But he soon remembered Togruta were a species with a wild temperament and close to nature; Most even liked to go barefoot.

"Don't think you've won Sith, I've already reported my location back. The Republic fleet will soon arrive." Her eyes looked at the three, watching for any movement.

"Interesting, is it the Jedi way to tell such obvious lies? Or do you think I'm a fool?" Khan crossed his arms across his chest. He already considered this Jedi to be his property and was thinking of ways he could use her.

Amora continued to look for ways out, hoping she could distract them for longer. "Lie? Why would I lie? I'm already stuck here and have no way to escape."

"So you think I'm a fool? If you don't even have the basic decency to have a civilized conversation, then I'll treat you like the beast you pretend to be." Khan waved his hand. "Sheva, deal with her."

Sheva didn't say a word and ignited her green lightsaber. She walked towards Amora who started backing up to put distance from the other two Sith.

The corners of Sheva's lips rose when she saw this. She licked her lips and looked at the girl in front of her as her prey. She knew this was her chance, if she failed this she may face something worse than death. "Are you scared, little girl?"

Sheva charged forward and stabbed her saber out. Amora held her hilt with both hands. Her blade swept in front of her and brushed Sheva's blade aside. At the same time, the other end of her blade was cutting down diagonally towards Sheva's chest.

Sheva is the one who's practiced against double-bladed lightsabers the most. She used the repulsive force of her blade being pushed away to spin the lightsaber in her hand and block the other end.

Amora pulled her blade back and tried swiping her leg with the now free end, but Sheva just lifted the leg and attacked; Forcing her to defend instead.

Their sabers clashed repeatedly as they tried to find an opening in each other's lightsaber combat. Sheva used form two to repeatedly parry strikes and try to attack, but Amora was skilled in form seven and kept up a fierce assault to prevent her elegant moments.

Seeing this, Sheva switched to form three and focused on defense. Amora kept attacking and started pushing Sheva back, her blade spun faster and her attacks became more fierce. She thought she was driving Sheva into a corner, not realizing she fell into the trap herself.

Khan and Natasha watched the flashes of purple and green from the side. "It seems like it's settled, Master."

"Yes, she got lucky her opponent wasn't skilled in the force and focused on lightsaber combat." Khan shook his head. "But I wouldn't count her out just yet."

Amora's body swirled around repeatedly like a spinning top, the swirling blows pushed Sheva back. No matter how fast Sheva moved backward, Amora would just spin faster and catch up to her.

Sheva's back hit the wall without noticing how close she was to it. The purple blade swung right for her waist and her eyes widened. She grabbed the hilt with both hands and bent her knees, she held the blade to her side and tilted it upwards.

Their sabers collided, the force pushed Sheva's blade centimeters from her head. The green light shone in her eyes and she could feel the heat on her face. "Give me up!!!"

Sheva screamed and Amora's blade started traveling upward, using her saber like a rail; Cutting into the wall and blasting sparks as it did.

When the blade rose high enough, Sheva pushed up with her legs at full strength and threw Amora's hands into the air.

Amora completely lost her balance and Sheva's eyes shone with a fiery yellow light. She swung down with a quickness, fully intending to split the Togruta in two.

Just when her blade was about to cut her down, the Togruta's body was pulled backward.

Amora's lightsaber fell from her hand and her body slid on the ground. She didn't stop until she arrived right before Khan. Before she could get up, Khan stepped on her chest and pushed her down.

All the air was pushed out of her body suddenly. She couldn't even expand her chest to breathe. She tried to struggle but Khan's foot felt like a boulder. "Uhh! Get your foot off me!"

She gasped for air and grabbed his leg but her efforts were fruitless. 

"Sleep." He clenched his fingers and the force bombarded her mind.

"Ahhhhhhh!!!" Explosions went off inside her mind and she clenched her head in pain.

His hand twisted and the veins in his arm bulged until she finally passed out. "Her will is strong, or my skills are finally starting to show their limitations."

His eyes turned to Sheva walking over with a fiery look in her eyes. "From now on you shall be my first Sith Assassin. You can contact Habitat, certain information will be open to you."

"Thank you, Master! I won't let you down." She couldn't hide her smile and dropped to a knee and bowed her head. She knew Khan told her this was unnecessary, but she felt like she had to express her loyalty at that moment.

The corners of his lips curled when he saw this and turned to Natasha. "The same goes for you, it's time for you to start training more in the force. You saw what happens if you rely on saber combat alone."

"Master, are you going somewhere?" Natasha looked curiously at Khan. From his tone of voice, it felt like he was leaving.

"Yes, when I return I can teach you personally. For now, you must wait here." Khan held out his hand and Amora's lightsaber flew to his hand. He turned off her blades and hooked it to her waist.

His other hand pointed to Sheva and lifted her to her feet.

Khan grabbed Amora by the neck and carried her to the A-wing. He sat in the cockpit and placed her on his lap.

"When I come back, I want to see this base completely under your control. I want all the Ysanna to fall in line."

"Yes, Master!" They both answered in unison.

The hatch closed by itself and the ship took off. Natasha and Sheva watched as the ship flew through the tunnel and left.
