Chapter six:
Sorry to say this to you guys but I've got the Royal Flush. Said Ja-ni.
The other Stormtrooper's threw down their cards and started yelling stuff as they walked away. Thanks for the credits, Venus said while picking up her money it was sad really because Venus had been left to keep watch over the Death Star.
The Emperor had went back to Coruscant and her Master was still handling things on Mustafar so she was practically all alone except for the thousands of Stormtrooper's that were in the Death Star. Lord Venus, an officer said. What is it Commander? Asked Ja-ni.
Mara Jade has just arrived to refill her supplies. I just thought you might want to know. Said the Commander.
Thank you officer. You are dismissed. Said Ja-ni. Venus had learned a lot about Mara Jade. She was the Emperor's favorite amongst the Emperor's Hands and she could hear the Emperor's commands across the galaxy better than anyone except maybe her Master. In the beginning she was just like Venus herself.
Mara had been taken away from her family by the Emperor. The Emperor held her in the most highest esteem. It was rumored that she could even match Vader in lightsaber and in Force powers. She had to see this woman.
She had the figure of a dancer. Red flaming hair and piercing green eyes. She looked like Venus except ten years older and with longer curled hair. Venus bowed as Mara walked past her. Mara suddenly stopped when she looked at the young girl before her.
This must have been Vader's apprentice that so many Imperials had talked about. Said Mara Jade. She was so sick of hearing about her when an evil smile came to her lips. Let's just see how really good you are Darth Venus. Said Mara Jade.
Venus jumped up from her bow to see what she had to say. I have heard many stories about you and I think you are a great warrior. Said Mara Jade. Venus nodded her head and said. Thank you Miss Jade.
So what do you say you and I have a lightsaber duel against some robots just for fun? To see who is stronger and we turn the saber's power down to where it will only paralyze the part you hit for about three hours. Said Mara Jade. Venus wasn't sure about this the robots seemed much stronger than her and would beat her for sure, but knowing that Mara Jade would be by her side gave her hope. When and where shall we meet Mara? Ja-ni asked her.
I'm tired right now so we shall meet in this very place in two hours. Replied Mara Jade smiling at her new friend.
Venus was in Darth Vader's personal training room. She would practice with the droids for an hour then rest for an hour. The two droids came at her with speed no human or Stormtrooper could match. She dodged the droids by stepping backwards and came at them in a W formation.
She stepped forward and swiftly cut the droids head off. Then stepped back again to get away from the other droids attack. She came forward and used Force crush to shatter the droid into millions of pieces.
Mara didn't train. She just sat there reading a book because she knew they were going to win with the ace she had up her sleeve.
When Ja-ni was done training, she tied her long brown hair into a ponytail, and Mara Jade tied her own long flaming red hair into a bun.
The two of them stepped forward, igniting their lightsabers. Let's see which is better an Emperor's Hand and a Sith Lord, or a bunch of practice droids. Mara Jade said smiling at her new friend, and Ja-ni smiled back at her. Mara and Ja-ni jumped up and almost touched the ceiling. They came back down as their blades met the practice droids.
