Star Wars: The Holy Empire - Chapter 40

When Ashoka heard me say her name, she was surprise and a little shy, so she hid behind one of the older and taller younglings, while also peeking out behind the other youngling.

“Why are you looking for her?” asked Master Yoda

“I am going to save her from the suffer that the Jedi Order will cause her.” I said

“Will?” said Master Yoda “Know of the future, do you?”

“Yes, I know what happens in the future” I said “The Force showed me what will happen in the future, and what is going to happen will be a terrible thing to come.”

“Be willing to tell us, will you?” asked Master Yoda “Help us create a better future, you can.”

I turned my head and looked at Master Yoda.

“I am already doing that by being here” I stated to Master Yoda “I will bring about a better future for this galaxy”

“Also do you know where the Mirialan youngling named Barriss Offee is?” I asked

“Looking for her as well, you are?” asked Master Yoda

“Yes, I am” I said “If she stays with you lot, she will eventually become disillusioned by the Order, and turn to the Dark Side.”

“What proof do you have to prove what your saying is the the truth” called out Mace Windu

“Why don’t I try and show you some spoilers of the future.” I said “Please open your minds”

As some of the Jedi Master open up their minds, while some of them like Mace Windu remained skeptical about me. I started to try and see if I could use the Force Power, [Force Telepathy] on my own without learning it from the system. I started to gather the Force into my mind, and as the Force slowly seeped into my mind, I started to remember some images from the Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith movie.

I found the image of the Jedi Temple during the night on fire in my memory, then an image of Jedi Temple during the day with a giant smoke cloud rising from it. Then I remember the image of Master Yoda and Obi-wan walking in the Temple surrounded by dead Jedi, and finally an image of a dark cloaked figure with a lightsaber activated, approaching a group of younglings in the High Council’s Chamber.

Once I had the four images in my mind, I started using the Force to gather the images in my mind. I then raised my hand and gently pushed forward, sending the four images into the minds of the Jedi Masters.

‘DING’ {Learned [Force Telepathy]}

{You have learned a Force Power without the help of the System}

{Reward: 1 Companion Voucher and 15,000 EXP}

{Hidden Mission can only be completed once}

When I saw the announcement appear in front of me, I was surprised.

‘Looks like their are some missions that are hidden.’ I thought ‘I really hate those Hidden Missions and Quest in video games since I have to try and discover them on my own, which is pretty annoying. The only good thing about Hidden Missions is that they have Rare and Unique Rewards.’

At the same time as I was thinking about the Hidden Mission, the four images went into the minds of some of the Jedi Masters, they became startled and shocked. When Master Yoda and Master Yaddle saw the images of the destruction, their hearts started to ache, and they both grabbed onto their c.h.e.s.ts to try and ease the pain in their heart.

“Stop this destruction, how do we?” asked Master Yoda with a sadden look

When the other Jedi Master who also saw the images I sent to their minds heard Master Yoda ask his question, they immediately became focus on me, while the skeptical Jedi Masters were clueless about what Master Yoda was talking about.

“You don’t have to worry about a thing.” I said “I will prevent that tragedy from happening”

“Help you, can we?” asked Master Yoda

“There is no need” I replied “Can you tell me where is Barriss Offfee now?”

“She isn’t here, she is with Jedi Knight Luminara Unduli who is on a mission right now.” replied Master Yoda

“That’s too bad, I really wanted to me the both of them” I said “Oh well, if we are fate to meet, then we will meet in the future.”

I stepped forward, and gently moved the Jedi Instructor out of my way, and knelt down on one knee in front of Ahsoka Tano.

“Hello Ahsoka Tano, my name is Jerid.” I said with a gentle and kind voice “How are you?”

Even though Ahsoka was shy, she bravely walked forward, and stood in front of me. She was holding her hands in front of her, and acting nervous while she was in front of me. It was pretty cute, how she acted so brave, and shy at the same time.

“H…He…Hellow Mistah” said Ahsoka shyly “Mistah, wh…why do you know my name?”

“Let’s just say I saw you through vision” I said “I know a lot about you, Ahsoka, and I know your future”

“A vision?” asked Ahsoka

“Yes, I saw you in a Force Vision .” I said “I also saw your future in my vision as well. I know you are a very talented young girl and your talents are wasted here. Your talents will not be able to prosper.”

“What do you mean?” asked a confused Ahsoka

“I would like you to come with me and let me train you in the Ways of the Force.” I said “This place isn’t suited for you, it’s a place of ignorance and fools.”

“Huh” said Ahsoka

Soon, Mace Windu came up from behind me, and activated his purple lightsaber, and held the blade close to my neck.

“Are you trying to insult the Jedi Order?” said Mace Windu “Do not try and lead this youngling down your corrupt path?”

Even with the lightsaber near my neck, I didn’t turn to look at Mace Windu, I kept on looking at Ahsoka who became frighten.

“Even though I don’t like you Mace Windu, I will say this about you” I said “I really do respect your loyalty and dedication to your Order, but you are too ignorant and stubborn for your own good.”

“What do you mean that I am ignorant and stubborn?” said Mace Windu

“Your ignorant because you believe that the Jedi Order’s ancient nemesis, the Sith couldn’t have returned, without the awareness of the Jedi Council.” I said “Your minds are clouded by the Dark Side.”

“Our minds are as clear as day and it’s impossible for our minds to be clouded by the Dark Side, since the Force here is strong and protects us.” said Mace Windu “Also there can’t be a Dark Side, since the Jedi Order eliminated all of the Sith in the past.”

“Yeah, right. Do you really think that the Jedi Order could exterminate all of the Sith?” I said

I slowly used the Force, to deactivate Mace Windu’s lightsaber. Once deactivated, I used the Force to push it away from my neck. I then stood up and faced him.

“All of your minds are truly clouded by the Dark Side.” I said

Before Mace Windu could continue arguing with me, Yoda walked in front of him and faced me, then Yoda held up his hand to stop Mace Windu from arguing some more.

“If clouded minds we have, do tell?” asked Yoda

“Along time ago, there was a Sith Shrine eructed on the very site of this Jedi Temple” I said

“That’s can’t be true, can it?” cried out Obi-wan who was shocked by what I said.

“True, it is. Read it in the History of the Order, I did.” said Yoda “Destroyed though, it was. Destroyed to its foundation and stripped of all remnant of Sith, it was.”

“That’s not completely true, Master Yoda.” I said “Even though the Jedi removed most of everything related to the Sith, but unbeknownst to the Jedi back then they miss a portion of the shrine.”

“What are you saying” said Mace Windu

“The reason why your minds are clouded is that hidden underneath the Jedi Temple, remains a portion of the Sith Shrine, that’s still active.” I said “With the Shrine still active, it has slowly clouded the your collective use of the Force with the power of the Dark Side.”

“Clouded minds we might have, if true.” said Yoda “Talk about this information, the Council needs to do.”

“We will see if what you say is true or not” said Mace Windu “But you will not be taking the youngling away from the Order.”

“I won’t be taking her” I said “She will be leaving here on her own free will.”

I then turn to Ahsoka and walked towards her. I knelt down on one knee in front of her again.

“I would like to talk to you again another day.” I said “Would that be ok with you?”

“Ok” said a confused Ahsoka, not knowing what’s going on in front of her.

“I look forward to seeing you again” I said “Bye, Ahsoka”

I patted Ahsoka on the head, then I walked next to Dia, and grabbed onto her waist. I opened up a black hole using [Force Travel] and jumped inside with Dia.
