Forbidden world.

[Jakkor Kess]

Malachor. Jakkor remembered hearing things about Malachor from his temple days. It was a forbidden world no jedi was ever supposed to go there,for reasons he didn't know why. Now he was taking his children with permission from his Wife to explore the planet. He wanted to teach them about the Sith and the dangers of the Dark Side,and he couldn't think of a better place than the forbidden world.

Within hours the Outlander had landed on the surface,which looked to have no signs of life,and it looked like it was glassed. As he stepped off the landing ramp he could see the ruins of a dome,and a pyramid shape in the distance.

[Xiarr Sair]

Why Xiarr had agreed to go on this journey he never truly found out, maybe it was the thrill, or maybe just learning about the past, he never knew. He sat in the cockpit of the Outlander as it approached Malachor V. He turned to Jakkor and said: "I hope you do know what happened to the last party of Jedi that set foot on Malachor?" It wasn't a pleasant ordeal from what Xiarr had read in the texts at the temple when he was a padawan. The Outlander jumped out of hyperspace, and the silent world of Malachor was in sight.

When the Outlander landed the land was scorched, with ancient weapons scattered everywhere. The main thing to note was the looming Sith Temple, which hadn't been used in eight hundred years. "Are you sure that you want to bring your children to Malachor? This planet can easily corrupt lightsiders, especially younger ones."

Natalia would stay by her fathers side hoping her twin would come to her side sometime very soon for she was scared she hated things like this because if it came to a fight she would be out of luck for her force powers were terrible and she knew she would instantly feel better with either her twin or her mother or even Lilla by her side.

Viktoria thought she was maybe drunk when she allowed Jakkor to bring their daughters to Malachor. She remembered who had appeared on the world and she wished to not find something like this. But, now here they were and she was on the ship to Malachor with Jakkor and their daughters. She was able to say though, that she was glad to have [member="Xiarr Sair"] by their side. When he spoke of what happened the last time Jedi set foot here and what would possibly happen to their daughters, Viktoria let out a light and rather nervous giggle.

"That's what I told him. When he brought it up, he was kinda lucky I didn't blow up. I'm just glad that we have you by our sides."

she responded. To be honest, when Jakkor brought up everything she went haywire. She feared for her family's safety and just hoped that she would be able to protect everyone. She honestly had to hold herself back from slapping him.

As they emerged from hyperspace, Viktoria saw the deathly planet and was able to sense the darkness from where she sat. She then sensed the fear coming from one of her daughters, quickly to realize it was Natalia. Going back to where the girls were, she sat next to Natalia and wrapped an arm around her.

"Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to you girls."

she said soothingly, hoping to help Natalia's anxiety.

[Lilla Kess]

Lilla was sat down next to [member="Natalia Kess"] , with her face towards the wall, thinking of where they were going. When daddy had announced it, she didn't give it much importance has she thought it was going to me some more Sand People culture, and kept on playing with her dolls.

As their mother arrived saying that she wouldn't allow anything happening to them, she got curious. What could happen? She expected they were going to Tatooine, but remembering the start of the trip, she had seen [member="Xiarr Sair"] getting into the ship with dad. "W..What could happen to us? Aren't we going to Tatooine to learn about Sand People? And who was that man that was with daddy?", the said rushingly, trying to overwhelm her mother with questions, so she wouldn't have time to notice that Lilla hadn't been listening.

Anasztazia jumped up from where she was playing with Lilla's toys and walked over to Natalia to support her. "That's right Natty! Mom and dad are strong Jedi! They won't let anything happen to us!", She looked over to her mother for approval of her words, "Right mom? You and dad can stop any bad guys!"

[Jakkor Kess]

Jakkor was very lucky he had to talk his wife into such a trip,he was lucky she didn't strangle him,and it was only after some persuasion with a nice dinner,and wine and a little love making kind of tipped his favor still even after all that he knew she was slightly displeased with him,and he knew if something happened to the girls his Master would be a very unhappy woman,and would probably have his head on a pike. Such a thought made him shiver slightly at the thought. There was a reason he was here,and it was a reason he didn't tell his wife. He was after the Malachor Sith Holocron which was rumored after the Gulag plague to be placed deep within the temple of the Sith on this barren world.

He kept his daughter/Padawan [member="Natalia Kess"] close to him sensing her anxiety through the force. He sent waves of soothing comfort to her hoping to calm her down. He heard[member="Xiarr Sair"],and heard stories as well as his concern for the Tusken's Children while making the long trek towards the shattered dome. He said as they got near to the ruins. "This is a test as part of their Training. I cannot shelter them forever,and they must learn the dangers of the Dark Side and the Sith,Even though they are broken one day they may have to fight them. First they must learn to control their fear and doubt,and eventually conquer it. I have heard the stories, Centuries ago Darth Vader tracked down a group of Jedi here with his Imperial Inquisitors,and faced them his mission was to retrieve the Holocron within the temple. He encountered his former Apprentice Ahsoka Tano,and the two dueled. It is still unknown who one the duel,or if she even lived,but their are rumors that her spirit is in the Temple."

As they hiked down, Xiarr noticed that the entire top part of the Sith Temple was caved in, with no signs of activity. He rolled his eyes to Jakkor's response and kept on walking. When they finally reached solid ground, or so it seemed, there was a giant hole in the ground with charred pieces of rubble to everywhere. "This doesn't look like it's two thousand years old, perhaps we should split up, I will explore this opening with either Jakkor or Viktoria, while someone else stays with the children." Xiarr crouched down and examined the rock and rubble, looking closely at the markings.

Natalia would feel these vibrations but it didn't matter they didn't help very much. She was so afraid nothing less than leaving this planet and going home would calm her down. As her mother placed her arm around her she would lean on her shoulder enjoying the warmth of the embrace. Even her twin who always managed to make her feel better couldnt do it this time

[Anasztazia Kess]

Darth Vader. Asohka Tano. Inquisitors. Holocrons. Anasztazia didn't know what those names meant exactly but the way that her father spoke of them made an impression in the young girls mind. She knew that "Sith" meant that a person used the dark side of the force for their own selfish reasons and were enemies of the Jedi since before she was born, like her parents taught her, but what they were truly capable of she wasn't sure. She walked up to her father with a curious look on her face. "Daddy? Who was Darth Vader? Was he a bad Sith?"

Viktoria looked up to Lilla, putting her hands up to slow her daughter down. She was kinda upset that Jakkor had never told the girls where they were truly going.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Lilla, dear, slow down. Your father should have told you where we are going."

she said the last part loud enough for him to hear. She still wasn't very fond on the thought of the girls on Malachor.

"We're heading for Malachor. It's a dark scary place. That man that boarded with Daddy, is an old and very trusted friend. He's here to help us."

she responded to Lilla. All she hoped was that explaining Malachor hadn't scared Natalia further. She feared for her the most, due to how she was progressing with training. She was taken from her thoughts when Anasztazia came over and aided Natalia. She just loved how those two twins bonded. They were always there for each other. Upon hearing what Ana said, Viktoria gave a motherly smile and nodded, still having a fear deep down that she would fail her girls. She wanted nothing more than their protection.

"That's true, Ana. And with your father's friend, you'll have even more protection."

she responded, keeping the smile on her face. Viktoria had a feeling though... that something was being kept from her. She would only find out later though.. As they walked off of the ship, Natalia was between Jakkor and Viktoria and Viktoria made sure all of the girls were together. When he mentioned what happened many years ago, Viktoria sighed.

"Ahsoka Tano was an amazing warrior. If her spirit is by our sides today, hopefully things will turn for good."

she looked to her girls, giving them small smiles of comfort before she then spoke up after Xiarr made mention of splitting up.

"While I don't agree with splitting up, I trust your gut. I will go with you. Jakkor, keep them close and don't do anything dumb."

she wasn't trying to be snippy, her mama bear self was coming out and she only wanted her family safe. Jakkor would hopefully understand.

[Jakkor Kess]

His wife was already giving him trouble for not telling the kids where they were going,and made it perfectly clear to bug him about it,He sighed and thought to himself. "Oh why did i somehow fall in love with that woman i'll never know" He than heard his daughter [member="Anasztazia Kess"] brought up Vader,and asking who he was the thought made Jakkor cringe,abit and replied "Well Sweetie Vader was a powerful,and Dangerous Sith. Your old man actually had an encounter with him once. It wasn't pretty and i was lucky to make it out alive.

They than finally made it to the ruins where bodies that looked like ashed statues seemed to be fighting one another,and lightsaber hilts were all over the ground. This was where the Great Scourge of Malachor took place. He was distracted by his wife speaking about watching the kid's he nodded and replied. "Yes Dear i won't do anything stupid we will be quite alright." He than looked at his children,and said. "Well come on little ones this is a quite impressive place. Here was a battle fought long ago by the Jedi and the Sith." He than start's leading them to the Temple structure hoping to find the Holocron inside,but he also made sure to keep the kids in his sight,and teach his lesson to them.

Natalia would just become so spooked she pressed her hands over her ears trying not to think about death or the Sith or anything

[Lilla Kess]

As Lilla walked with the group, she heard the word "Sith", and shivers were sent down her spine. It was bad enough the atmosphere smelled like something rotten, and... dead, but to also know that they were splitting up, was just a bigger reinforcement for her to get scarred. But, she kept herself calm, trying to think about happy things.

The little girl, crouched down and picked up an ash covered lightsaber hilt. It had a button and a hole in the top. Looking at daddy she asked, "What is this, daddy?", showing it up closer to her sisters. She hoped it was some sort of heating device, she was freezing.

Xiarr jumped down into the hole, when he landed he heard faint whispers, but they were mostly all inaudible but he could make out something out among the lines of "I know where you are..." It was pitch black, so Xiarr activated his lightsaber and he could see columns of pillars. "Perhaps this may be another entrance to the temple, we should get moving if we want to find out." Xiarr looked over at Viktoria, waiting for her response.

Viktoria followed closer behind Xiarr, keeping her hands on her lightsabers at all times. She then followed him down the hole, landing right next to him. It was obvious that something accompanied them down there. Whispers surrounded the two. About the same time, they both heard a voice saying, 'I know where you are..' Viktoria also ignited her saber, looking over to Xiarr.

"Possibly. Just stay alert. I've got a bad feeling about this place. Let's move."

She responded as she would then start to make a move, shining her saber ahead of them, so they'd be able to see their way.

Ana followed closely behind her father as he explained his encounter with the Sith Lord long ago. To think her father fought a Sith Lord and was almost beaten by him. Darth Vader must have been a powerful Sith to do something like that. It made her shiver a bit to think of what he might have looked like, how scary he would be to meet in person, a monster of a man cloaked in a dark robe with pale skin and a disfigured contorted face. At least that's how she imagined him.

She was freaking herself out now and it made her fall back in step with her mother as her breathing slowly increased. She couldn't tell what or why but there was a feeling about this place that at first her curiosity had distracted her from noticing but now was quite apparent to her.

Then she saw Lilla crouch down and pick something up from the area around them.

"What is this, daddy?", she asked as she took up the dull silver cylinder and and showed it to her.

"Lilla.", Ana said concerned, "Put it back. We shouldn't touch anything here."

As he kept walking around the petrified ashed statues,He felt the dark side everywhere despite searching for the Holocron that was here his kids were first,and so he would do everything in his power to protect them. They walked closer,and closer to the pyramid,and as they did he felt a dark presence. Perhaps they weren't alone in this place. He than saw [member="Lilla Kess"] move up,and grab a lightsaber hilt which looked ancient in design. He looked at her with concern,and said. "Be careful with that young one. We do not want to disturb this place. Now do not try to touch anything,and i say that for all of you." He kept walking and did so with caution,as they approached deeper into the side of the pyramid,and saw a side entrance where he led them all inside.

As they reached the side entrance Natalia would sense something that wasn't right. Nat would get a splitting headache and would grasp her head falling to the floor. This place had a bad vibe to it and it was messing with the young girl
