Last Wish

[Alli Vern]

" I don't know.. I think on your birthday or wedding day.. I can't remember, I looked it up.and well I will do whatever you need to do to fufill her wishes... I mean.. she wanted this for me. Just tell me what to do." She sighed wondering what this involved exactly. [member="Enigma"]

"I'll do a test to see which one is which." She smiled. "It's a simple matter of resetting the datapad's internal clock, then feeding it false time data from a server mimicking the one it currently gets info from. No biggie." She smiled, moving to go and do so. "We'll likely need to go to my laboratory on Malachor V. I have a friend there after all, so everything should be nice and dandy. The planet has enough Force energy to be tapped for this, though not as much as the Valley of the Dark Lords or the Valley of the Jedi."

Aurna smiled and nodded."Whatever works" She said reluctantly, this friend of Aunt Alli's was a drag she thought. She seemed so heart set on her working here. "Wait you own subach right?" She asked an obvious question. "Alli left me a company and well I think I remember them saying they were building you a refinery of some sort.. I don't know the details I just know that they wanted me to know that. I sort of let them do their own thing for now.. I sort of need to step up in that arena but the told me that it was fine if I took a bit before I stepped up to the job. "

"You definitely will want to tread lightly, considering the sort of people trying to run your company. The Counts of Serenno that Alli mentioned are exceptionally ruthless people, with affiliations of the nefarious sort. Such has typically been the way of the world. Then she mentioned the refinery that Baktoid had been working on.

"The refinery will be taken in stead by Subach's successor corporation, so no worries there. Just need to inform me when it's ready."

 

[Alli Vern]

"Well I shall, I promise. So shall we do the deed so to speak?" She asked not caring to talk about business. She hated talking about business. She would leave that to the capable hands of somebody named Serenity. She had never met her, but she had heard she was in charge of Tanlab Industries from the man she spoke to.

"In time, Aurna... Meet me at this location in a week." She sent the location of the chosen planet to the woman's datapad. The planet was Malachor V - a world where Circe's old Sith Empire laboratory was located, and where a Force Nexus of the proper size was. She even had some Artusian crystal left over from the attempt to make Ven'Rain Reborn.

And once Aurna finally left, she would move to hack the datapad and do as she stated she intended to - hopefully the message would be displayed.

 

[Alli Vern]

Aurna left and gave Circe a hug. " I will miss Alli, like I am sure you will, hope you have a good day. see you in a week." She ran off towards the hanger, with Alli's old ship sitting there. That was when the message would start to play. It was set for another day but as it was hacked it played anyway. It was Aurna this time but with a differnt look on her face, and in Alli's old posture.

" I am sorry I just can't live with myself, I stole this girls body.. and even killed billions of people over druckenwell, but I need someone to know and look out for the new me. I am having the old me erased from my mind. There will be some memories created to give the new Aurna a sense of her self but she will be me without all the baggage of Alli Wren. You must promise you will never tell her unless she absolutely must know. I hope it never comes to that as I want her to be a new person. I have left her enough information to know what is hers.. and the skills to work on droids and computers like I did. But any memory of my old life will be forever erased. She will remember nothing. I want you to keep it that way, no telling her or anything. I beg of you please don't spoil her life. I want her to have the life I never could. She will be a new better person who can enjoy the fruits of my labor without all the sin and strings attached. I want you to know so that you can watch out for any percieved notions. This datapad will shortly short it self forever erasing it of this video. The other videos will mail to you so don't worry. I want you to have those. Please keep this deal.. please don't let Aurna know. I want her to live her life and be free from the knowledge that we killed all those people above Druckenwell. Please just let her be free and innocent and find her own path. She is my daughter.. and now yours, keep her safe and don't let her know. "

Circe didn't want the thing to short out, however... The moment she heard Alli mention the short, she popped the power pack out. Though the datapad was not damaged, the booby-trap would inevitably short the datapad were it turned on again. Circe nodded, and knowing that the other files were being transferred, let the datapad be - one day, she would see what she could do, but for now, she would let it rest in pieces.

 

[Alli Vern]

Aurna showed up at the prescribed time, at the prescribed location. She looked at her sensors curious where she exactly she had to meet where she figured it out and got in the place. She after all was told to be here. "hopefully it wouldn't be too long before it all went down. She wasn't sure what was suppose to happen. It was going to be very interesting. She so hoped this wasn't going to hurt. She would hate if it did. Aurna hated pain, it was terrible and well she didn't want to do anything that hurt but Alli had wanted this for her.

The rig was prepared as previously. Large Artusian crystals were in place, taller than both Circe and Aurna. The table was reclined between the two largest crystals, waiting for Aurna to sit back and prepare for the ritual.

"Once this is over, you're going to need to wear a suit with an Artusian crystal in the chestplate. It'll help you have the power, starting off, to train with. We'll make sure the suit has modifications to allow you to do things without the Force as well."

 

[Alli Vern]

" I have to wear a suit? but.. that will ruin my options for cute clothes..." She pouted and got in postion. "Do I have to wear an ugly good for nothing suit? Can't I wear an bracelet or something. She asked with a cheesy smile. " I mean surely it can't be too hard to do something like that. Maybe even implant it in me.. I just don't want to have to wear some suit around..."

She sighed and looked at Circe.

[member="Aurna Vern"]

"Implant It in you?" She paused, thinking for a moment. "That's potentially doable, but do you really want to have crystal impregnated deep within your flesh and bone? You might never feel natural again, and I really don't want things to go poorly for you later in life if the crystal has some... Some less than stellar side effects."

Circe had never heard of crystals growing within a person, but with the Force, anything was possible.

 

[Alli Vern]

"Well it might be better than forever wearing some suit... " She said countering. "Surely tech is better than that..." She giggled a bit. " I mean.. what are we talking about with this suit.. I guess I need more information.. what is the suit for exactly do I always have to wear it.. and why and you know questions like that.. "

[member="Enigma"]

 

[Onrai]

[member="Aurna Vern"]

"Tech, maybe, but tech does not allow someone to wield the Force. I suppose you could wear it as an amulet around your neck." She paused, thinking. "The suit in question is that of a Shadowtrooper. Old stormtroopers who were Reborn as saber-wielding, Force-using warriors." She smiled, eagerly awaiting the acquisition of more information.

"This power will be yours. I promise."

 

[Alli Vern]

"Hell no am I wearing some stormtrooper armor, this isn't worth it if that is what I have to wear to use the force. " She grumbled "Alli's wishes be damned. " she got angry, she didn't want to have to wear armor all over the place, she just wanted to get this over with so she could go exploring. She sighed and looked to Circe. "Please make it something small, like an amulet, I won't do this if I have to wear some storm trooper armor to do it. There is little point to it then. "

[member="Enigma"]

 

[Onrai]

[member="Aurna Vern"]

"Well, then I suppose the best option would be the amulet. But right now, you and I need to get you strapped in so we can power things up and give you at least the modest moricum of Force capabilities. You understand, assumedly..." She smiled, giving a soft grin as she moved to help Aurna get properly situated for the activation of the device.

 

[Alli Vern]

Aurna let her strap her in the device and she fidgeted with her hands as long as she was able. It was an unconsious nervous tick she had picked up. Aurna bit her lip a bit as it all happened. She was more than a little scared on what this machine was going to do to her. She looked to Circe for some level of comfort. She awaited hoping for it to be quick and painless.

It was quick, and modestly painless. The energy running through the crystals would make them grow incessantly bright as they performed their duty, artificially strengthening the Force connection that Aurna had. Though she would be able to touch the Force to a basic degree now, anyone who sensed her connection would be able to tell that it was, to say the least, wrong. An abomination of nature.

The machine powered down as Circe handed a roughly hewn piece of crystal to her, looped in thick silver cord. "This is for you. Keep it close. Always."

 

[Alli Vern]

"What happens if it is not close?" She asked honestly curious. She didn't know much about what had been done to her. She was curious what would happen should she not have it near her. After all it was a good question. Perhaps she didn't want it near her all the time. She smiled and looked at Circe, curious what she would say. It wasn't everyday that one got given the force.

"You won't have as much capabilities in the Force. But right now, what's important is that you use it to enhance your power and allow you to train. Eventually, we'll be able to wean you away from it." She smiled, giving a soft grin as she stepped back before moving to extricate her from the straps. "How do you feel? Good? Bad? Indifferent?"
