The Obscured Pending Darkness

Kixi sat in the interrogation room, cuffed and bound. Mako wasn't there, however Kixi could feel her life force present in a nearby room. A Sith interrogator starred at her and the finally put his hand on Kixi's throat and pressed on it hard. "Who are you, where are you from, answer me now?" The interrogator slapped her across the face instantly causing blood to ooze out of her mouth and scratch the right side of her cheek. The flash of light, the noise of distortion, "Who are you, where are you from, answer me now?" The interrogator slapped her across the face instantly causing blood to come out of her mouth and scratch the right side of her cheek. She could've sworn she had just been asked that question and been slapped in the face. Yet the Interrogator had only asked the question once and hit her once. "I'm Kixi Rajki, First Prime of the noble House of Sunrider, Sajnen Confederate", she responded weakly.

The interrogator then suddenly backed off for just a moment, shocked at what he had witnessed. The scratches he had inflicted on Kixi's face had suddenly vanished. He grabbed her throat again, this time slashed her forehead. He held her by the throat as she gargled. And it happened again, the wound on her forehead closed up and disappeared. "What the hell are you?", the interrogator demanded. "I don't know what is happening to me", Kixi replied. The flash of light, the noise distortion, "He grabbed her throat again, this time slashed her forehead. He held her by the throat as she gargled. And it happened again, the wound on her forehead closed up and disappeared. "What the hell are you?", the interrogator demanded. "I don't know what is happening to me", Kixi replied. What had just happened, she was certain of it this time, she had re-lived the same memory twice, however the interrogator had only asked the question and committed his action once. The nanites inside her bloodstream were the reason her body was repearing herself, this much she was certain of. But the lapses in time. She didn't know, but soon she would find out that her original mission objective for coming to this galaxy in the first place was about to be realised. And it had better be the case she thought in agonising pain, the nanites in her body will eventually kill her if the Sith don't do it first. Kixi was dying.

Aeil entered the room then, viewing the entire scene from a one way window. "Her heart rate is rising way above normal parameters. She isn't an alien or anything, Interrogator. She's from another galaxy. What's wrong with you? What did you put in yourself that's allowing you to heal?" He grabbed her by the throat and examined her face. "Get a blood sample and look at it under a microscope, stat."
Mako was receiving torture as well, but in a very specific way. A Sith Master was using Force lightening on her cybernetic parts, threatening to shut down her life support if she didn't answer his questions. She was close to overloading, nearly at breaking point...
Vinskk and Free-Eyes were zipping their way over to the interrogation center. "Sith cannot kill Kixi. Vinskk has to finish Human." Free-Eyes agreed, saying, "I'm going double time!"

Kixi could feel the pain being inflicted on Mako. "Leave her alone you bastards!", Kixi turned her own head to each side as her bound body jolted in her own pain. "Why are you doing this to us. This is an unprovoked attack!". The interrogator acknowledged Veil. "So what technology have you injected in your bloodstream to allow yourself to heal, where is this place from beyond the Galaxy that you come from", the interrogator choking Kixi again, stopping short of killing her.

"They're nanites. And they're basically a one way ticket. You can't remove them without killing me, and if you do, the technology dies with me. Although it's all trivial", she spat, "they're going to end up consuming me and killing me anyway.". Suddenly she felt that flash of light, the noise distortion and that entire scene repeat itself, yet it only had happened once.

It clicked. The Orb of Passage. She had touched and accessed it while on the Ueshiba. The nanites are replicating it's power. She was experiencing things happen again, yet they were only occurring once as far as everyone else was concerned because the Orb of Passage was causing rifts in the time continuum.

"If you stop torturing Mako, and let me speak to the Trandoshan Vinskk, I will tell you what you want to know". Now it was up to the interrogator to decide.

The Bothan spoke to the interrogator in hushed tones. "Fine. We'll find him." The Torture Master stopped interrogating Mako as he received the order, stopping short of killing her.
Vinskk and Free-Eyes were just about to enter the Sith center when the door opened, Aeil bumping right into the two of them. "Oh, good! I don't have to track you down. She wants to see you, Vinskk. It's the only way she'll talk." The Trandoshan nodded.
They were lead into the holding cell area, where Vinskk started planning on how he was going to kill the Jeedai and how he would get away with it. A cell door was opened in front of him by the Bothan. "Remember, you're being monitored.", a burly Sith interrogator reminded him. "I know, Human."
He stepped in the room to see Kixi chained and banded, blood splattered on the white walls. The door was closed behind him and Vinskk stood there, trying to contain himself from killing her then and there...

Kixi knew that if she could combine his hate with hers, that she could reach back far enough when the ripples in the timeline continuum occurred. Though she would have only one shot, to go back to that pivotal moment in her life, where everything had suddenly changed, her life as a fighter for justice and peace, the right to preserve the lives of the helpless, the defender of the weak had been taken away from her by one man, Terron Hesh. That pivotal moment in her life where she had become the hating killer tyrrant that she now was, she now lay clinging for her own life at the hands of people no different. "How ironic", she thought to herself.

"Hello Vinskk, I'm dying so I would like to ask one final request from you". She paused, agony showing all over her face and body as she starred directly into the Trandoshan's hating eyes. "I will grant you your wish to kill me by your hand, if you grant me mine to die alongside Mako. By now you know that she is more than just a friend", Kixi coughed and spat blood as the words came out. If she were to fail her mission, then she would at least die happy.

[member="Vinskk Revamp"]
 
Vinskk stared into her very soul with pure hatred. Every part of him just wanted to tear her apart there, when she was so weak and vulnerable. But then he knew this was her final request. He had started off as a servant, and she would end with him still being one.
"What...must Vinskk do? How is Trandoshan supposed to get Humans next to each other?"
Meanwhile, Free-Eyes and Aeil were talking outside lf the room...
"We've got some interesting tech off of the escape pod, Free-Eyes. Why don't you come by one of these days and help the Sith take it apart and examine it? I saw what you did with that antimatter belt thing. You'd be perfect for the job. And for the Bothans...you could help us 'acquire' some info. Up to you. "
The Gran scratched the back of his head. "I work solo, though. It'll take lots of credits to change that..."
 
"Your task is easy", Kixi said slowly. Just saying those words alone was a struggle. By this stage, it had been the nanites in her bloodstream keeping her alive. The nanites that would eventually consume her. She needed to hurry in order to execute her plan. The Orb of Passage worked on the power of hatred. Mako's hadred towards Terron Hesh would help fuel Kixi with enough power to go back and change what was unrightfully taken away from her by that very same man.

"Tell the Sith interrogator that I will reveal all about my people and our technologies if he allows me to die together with her and only if he allows you to carry out my execution. I'm quite sure he'll comply as if I die by his hand or in any other way, my secrets will die with me. I'm sure that he'll see it as more than a fair trade", Kixi emphasised and finished off by dropping her head down. She slowly raised it again, "And you'll have the pleasure to kill me. Although I do not understand what motivates you to want to do that to an innocent being", she said clearly referring to herself. "But perhaps you can tell that to the dying woman before your eyes".

[member="Vinskk Revamp"]
 
Vinskk stared at Kixi for a long time before wordlessy turning and exiting the cell.
"Did Sith hear that?", he asked to the Chief Interrogator. He nodded. "We were planning to kill them anyway. They destroyed an entire capital ship with all the crew still on it. I suppose you can do it, if she tells us everything we need to know right now." He walked into the cell to tell her the news. The Trandoshan was satisfied. He could care less about what she wanted. The Sith Torture Master received the news as well and led Vinskk to a seating area to await the execution.

Free-Eyes and Aeil were still discussing job opportunities. "You know, the 'Net isn't that bad a place to work in. Only minimal threat of capture, torture, and death. Oh, we get great benefits too. Maybe after this whole fiasco is done, you could work with us full-time. I don't think we have a Gran on staff anyway."
"Thanks for the offer, but I thought about it right now and I think I need to travel a bit. Vinskk always had this standing offer for me. He said that whenever I wanted to, I could join up with him. Not as a team, but more like a partnership. So I think I'm gonna do that."
"Suit yourself." The Bothan shrugged, trying to play it off cool, but his fur rippled. He was obviously not happy. "If you ever change your mind, I'll be in touch..."

The Sith interrogator returned to Kixi. This time he wasn't alone as he was accompanied by a Sith Lord. Knowing that the Jedi was far too weak to even try and attempt anything, he unbound her. He chose not to hit her even though he clearly had wanted to kill her himself because one, he needed the information that she had promised to deliver, and two they had had an agreement that in exchange for this information, that she could die alongside the other accomplice Mako and be executed at the hands of the Trandoshan warrior. Kixi as promised gave them all the information regarding ships, weapons, defences, the exact point to point details of the entire Sajnen Confederate, it's enemies, it's allies, her home planet of birth, Terra Sol. The Sith Lord clearly got more than what he had bargained for as 2 guards brought in Mako and through across the room to where Kixi was crouched on her knees. And so he thought because if everything went according to plan, all of what just happened, was about to be erased. Satisfied he signaled Vinskk into the room to carry out the execution. In the meantime, Kixi pickup Mako's limp body, she was barely conscious. She half opened her eyes. Kixi brought her close to her body and held her tightly. "You'll be okay, just hold on to me tightly, and trust in me and trust in the Force".

Kixi continued to hold Mako close to her body with her arms fully wrapped around her. Mako could barely keep her eyes open. She had been beaten and tortured for no good reason other than to satisfy the hating needs of others. It looked all too familiar. "Mako", Kixi whispered in her ear. Mako opened her eyes, her life force draining. "It is time", Kixi said. "Terron Hesh is the reason why we are here today, Terron Hesh must be stopped, Terron Hesh will be stopped, and yesterday will determine a new today. Channel all your hate for that man, and allow us to become one with the dark side of the Force, for we need it for us to reach the passage of the light which lays before us". Kixi brought Mako's body closer to her own and held her as tight as she could. Kixi slowly brushed Mako's hair with her hand, "Nothing will ever be able to keep us apart my love". The Trandoshan then entered the holding cell as others, the Sith, the Gran and the Bothan all watched in anticipation.

Vinskk was handed a blaster as he walked in, but he denied it. The Trandoshan would use his sword to carry out the deed.
He looked at the two lying before him, weak and pathetic. Today would be the day he would be free from his bondage. He approached Mako. She would be first.
He grabbed her roughly and pulled her cyborg body away from Kixi. The others looked through the room's one way mirror, some in disgust, some in interest. Vinskk loomed over her in indifference. She was precious to Kixi. He would make her suffer.
He brought the Trandoshan sword down hard through Mako's abdomen, skewering her through the gut. It was painful just to look at. As the cyborg laid dying on the cold durasteel floor, whoops and applause could be heard fron the other side of the window.
Free-Eyes looked away as he saw his friend plunge the blade down while the Sith around him cheered and clapped, noticeably disgusted. An acolyte taunted the Gran, calling him a gizka. Aeil shook his head, but looked on in a form of respect. The Sith suddenly cheered as Vinskk moved on to Kixi, bringing his sword up to make the same move...
[member="Kixi Rajki"]
 
"Mako, nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo", Kixi cried out as she was roughly pulled away from her and gutted like she was nothing more than an animal. She wasn't expecting the Trandoshan to do that, but then again he was here to execute them so how he carried out the act was really irrelevant. How cruel the world was, she momentarily thought to herself. Mako was nothing more than an innocent victim, and twice for that matter. Soon she would be a victim no more, Kixi thought to herself. However the act of the Trandoshan in the end was a bonus for Kixi, it added the extra fuel to her anger and hate, hate towards the Trandoshan and all those around her watching anonymously and most importantly of all, Terron Hesh. And it began. The ripples, the temporal anomaly, the shift in time was beginning. It could be felt by the Sith above her watching. One of the Lords watching was certain of this. "Stop her, I know what she is trying to do", he yelled out, but it was too late. The hatred that fueled in her mind would temporarily blanket the minds of the Trandoshan and all in the vicinity around her watching. They would witness through her own mind, what she was about to see and do. Kixi began speaking to the Trandoshan in the third person as he lifted his sword.

"He shall never harm me, nor shall he ever get that chance, for he cannot harm one that has never crossed his path." She paused and hissed as the Trandoshan readied his blow to rip Kixi apart. She continued to speak as she could now feel the ripples as the timeline continuum began to distort. "Good bye Vinskk, time is not linear, we may well cross paths again under different circumstances, although one thing is for certain, I doubt neither of us will remember one another.

And as the Trandoshan striked the killer blow, the flash of light, the distortion, it lasted longer than usual for what seemed an eternity. Kixi felt like she was riding a storm, and one that was about to seal her fate once and for all regardless weather she succeeded or failed.

And then silence............................

Kustietera System outer fringes. Milky Way Galaxy. Terran Sol year 2098 CE.

On the bridge of her Daedalus class battleship, Kixi starred out at the viewpoint in space from the ship's bridge. The World Ships of an advanced lizard like alien species were surrounded by the swarm of the Confederate and Atlantean combined forces from the respective Andromeda and Pegasus Galaxies. Terron Hesh, the leading military leader of Kustietera, a planet which had just been freed at the hands of the forces commanded by the young Kixi Rajki, First Prime of the House of Sunrider, one of several noble house comprising of the Sajnen Confederate, stood metres away from her. He held Kixi's first officer Mako Zaneca at knife point to her throat.

Kixi,"The war is over, we....you have won. There is no need for more unnecessary violence".

Terron,"It's not over as far as I'm concerned, not until every last soul of theirs is eradicated from existence".

Kixi, "They are innocent victims of war. Children, families, all they wanted was to live their lives. They blindly followed their military leaders in the false lies and hope they were given. It's not their fault, they don't deserve die!" Kixi pleaded with Terron. She felt weird. It had felt like she had been here before.

Terron, "Innocent victims you speak of? You're a stupid naive fool Captain Rajki. The only innocent victims are the ones who were tortured and killed during the occupation. You seen to have quickly forgotten, the death toll to my people is catastrophic, and at their hands ", he pointed his head angryly to the viewpoint where the alien world ships were clearly visable and trapped.

Kixi,"The war is over, your world is free thanks to our voluntary assistance and this is how you repay thanks to us, by threatening to kill my first officer if I don't bow to your unreasonable wishes". Kixi protested with both her hands out, clearly pleading her case with Terron.

Terron, "Its not unreasonable, you don't understand, you can never understand as it wasn't your world, your people that have suffered" He pulled the knife closer to Mako's throat. Mako fearing for her life tried to speak. "Quiet you!" He pushed the knife onto her throat ever closer and spoke to Kixi once again. "Enough of this! Release the remaining Genghis Virus on the enemy world ships now or she dies!"

Kixi, "This is genocide Terron", Kixi yelled at him. "You want me to commit genocide. I want no part in this. Please Terron, let's be reasonable", Kixi pleaded.

Terron, "Fire the virus now or I'll slash her throat as if she is nothing more than a wild animal", He held Mako close to his body, knife trained on her throat. "Now!"

Kixi felt a strange sensation. It was like she had seen some alien like creature just gut Mako in half with a sword. She shock her head. "What was that", she wondered. The sensation felt strange.

Kixi, "Okay Terron, you win. You win, I'll unleash the virus on the world ships but first let her go"

Terron. "What do you take me for an idiot!" He snapped. "Release the virus first and then I'll release your precious worthless piece of kark here that you call your girlfriend".

All was feeling bizarre. She starred at him and somehow she knew. He wasn't going to slash her throat. No, the moment Kixi would unleash the virus, he would shove that hidden mini bomb down her back, push her away from him, the bomb would explode not killing her, but destroy half of Mako's body who would survive as a cyborg and never be the same again. But how could she know this. She couldn't explain it but it felt she had been here before.

Terron, "Well what are you waiting for, I don't intend to stand here and look at your pretty face all day you stupid little brat. The Genghis Virus, deploy it on thise ships now!"

And this was it, that pivotal point in time, that pivotal point where her fate would be decided. She somehow remembered, a future that had happened but had not happened yet. She had unleashed the virus and Terron had seriously maimed Mako. This was it, she knew it somehow. Altering this one event, will give her back the life she was meant to have.

Kixi, "You intend to kill her anyway".

Terron, "What are you talking about".

Kixi, "I said you were planning to kill Mako the whole time weather I carry out your request or not".

Terron, "That is absurd! Why would I want to do that once the virus is unleashed?"

Kixi, "I don't know, you tell me?"

This interruption gave Kixi the window of opportunity she needed. Terron had slightly loosened his grip on Mako's throat. Assisted with the Force she pulled the knife out of his hand. Quickly she then Force pushed him back. Terron fell backwards and immediately the security team on her bridge had him cornered.

Kixi, "Careful, he has a bomb".

.......... And that was that. The Genghis virus was never fired, genocide never committed at Rajki's hand and Mako never harmed.

Time is not like a river that flows sure in one direction.

As Vinskk striked his blow of death at the young helpless human female Jedi prey, suddenly a white bright light flashed before him, he like everyone else in the vicinity had just witnessed everything, and then, one moment he was in a Sith holding cell, and the next onboard his ship, the Broken Talon, the memory of the hated Kixi Rajki, nothing more than a faded distant memory, if it had ever even existed.

Time is like an ocean in a storm.

At the edge of the Galaxy, the one where the Grand Republic presided in, a Daedalus class starship originating from a galaxy known as Andromeda exited hyperspace. On the Bridge stood its captain Kixi Rajki and First Officer Mako Zaneca. "We have arrived, finally", Mako announced. Kixi nodded in acknowledgment. "Good. Set course for Coruscant. We must warn our Jedi allies of the impending Sith invasion".

Vinskk blinked, hard. Did he just doze off? He dreamt of something...it was a white room, a sword held in his claws as he killed a woman. He was seated in the cockpit of the Broken Talon as he scratched the back of his head, perplexed. The screams and cries of the slaves below deck soothed him, the familiar sounds lulling him into the present until a name slammed into his head so hard, it made him stand up.
Kixi.
Hesitant, Vinskk sat back down. He was feeling weird now, almost a sort of deja vu. What was happening to him? This couldn't have just been a dream. Whatever it was, it gave him the shivers. Another name smashed into his mind.
Coruscant.
The Trandoshan clicked and set a course to Coruscant. He had a sudden urge to see a Gran and a Bothan in the Undercity...
